Cohen, proprietor of the universally celebrated lotion for the cure of Chronic and Infla matory Rheumatism. Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and Swellings in the Joints, &c., known as Cohen’s Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer all persons suffering from these disea es to the thousands of cures that his preparation has accom plished., and to the numerous strange and highly respectaole testimonials which have, from time to time, been published to that effect in New York and other places. So certain and searching is this Liniment in its operations, even in cases of long standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has never been known to fail. The following letters are selected from hundreds of others of a like de scription. It will be proper that all persons using he Liniment, see that it is accompanied with the sign atm e of the proprietor in his own hand writing. Since the introduction of this remedy to the public, various empirics have been palmed upon the coun try, Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and “Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated, more or less, to injure the system rather than re move any complaint. In proof ot the estimat'on in which the Embrocation is held by respectable men in the medical profession, as well as by the thousands of persons who have been effectua ly cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined letters from a few who are well and popularly known to the entire society in New York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. 275$ Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, 1838.

Warranted to cure in Five Days. fIAIIIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so A long known, and used with such unparraileled success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap pears to need no panegyric. Its operation upon the human system is such that it invariably acts like a charm, for the relief and radical cure of a certain common and disagreeable‘"ills the flesh is heir to.” This prize obtains its own name from the certain success which has attended it through all of its trying circumstances, namely, “five days,” —the same success which followed it in a Northern lati tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by M. Cheveres, from the celebrated Indian Chief Wabenothe, or Great Moon, whilst he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu , siness in the North-west with the Indians. — Wabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable success throughout his two tribes. Its known and valued virtues have already enriched to an almost incredible extent the children of this warlike prince, not only by actual sale of the article itself to in dividuals, but by parting with copies of his receipt at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe of Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the Great Spirit, never to divulge the “art of its com position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although free to use it in their respective tribes, which places it in the hands of every Indian who rely with, I may say, religious confidence on its cura ble powers. Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can be anglisized of the deed given by Wabenoshe, to M. Chcveret, when he purchased the original recipe, and had twice assisted the Chief himself through the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture. Few white men would credit the length of time which is consumed in preparing the article for im mediate use. TRANSLATION. “I, Wabenoshe, Chief of the nations Ottowa and Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my w'hite friend M. Cheverct, (for he has done many good things for me and my people,) I give to him my greatest cure for the bad sickness which my children have had sent among them as a punishment by the Great Spirit, and hope that in his hands it may do much good, and make him very rich.” Signed WABINOSIIK,his X mark.

The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy fur this distressing coinpamt is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so in ich sutlenng should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventiv;, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a muted fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that lh* sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, tlnuugh iho stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of the naiural and healthy functions ol the system. This object. Dr. Spotra’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact.

Indeed llmspoed and certainly of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sorcs,chilblains, while swellings, biles, piles,spide r and snake bites, &c. &c., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, if prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of w hite swelling that can be ima gir ed. have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from perva ling the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for ihe chafed back and limbs of horses—for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or beast.

I have abo used it on the leg of a boy which had been bitten by an adder, and the extraction of the poison, and ultimate cure was so rapid, that rny patient was as well as ever in a week ; and has remained so to this day Yours respectfully, HENRY JACOBS, M. D. Extract of a letter from Dr. J. VV. Sanders, of Louisville, Ky October 8, 1837. “ I am prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Fains, and the Sore Breasts of females, Harrison’s Specific Ointment has no superior, if indeed it has any equal in tae whojf catalogue of external medicines, as known and prescribed in this country.” Extractol a letter from Dr. Pot.s.xit Unca,N.Y.

They have passed away from the c hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of e experiment, and now stand before the public as high in reputation, and as extensively employed in a all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas b Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that a has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering g man. They have been introduced wherever it was 'J found possible to carry them ; and there are but 5 few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good eifects. The certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, why are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in rariou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at- 1 tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there aic.thousands of families who declare they re never satislied until they have a supply always ' on hand. They have no rival in curing and preventing Billions Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, w here a cathartic or aperient is needed They are exceedingly mild in their operation, producing neither nausea, griping nor debilitv. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d,1838: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By request of your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and I would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I speak of their merits from experience,as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great are the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house without them. I will not enumerate the afflictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim ple purilicr of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. 1 w ill mention one case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe riod severely afflicted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the very verge of the grave. She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but alt their efforts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she w as in this situation, ex pecting every day to be her last, your pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal pable were their effects that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all who were witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to miraculous; and yet 1 could mention many more of an equally desperate nature, in which yourpills were equally successful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need 1 add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in j this section of the country ? But this I presume I you know from the immense quantity you dispose jof i may mention, however.liiutnotwithstanding j its general use, I never heard an individual complain I of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Bare | eigh, on the read to Fayetteville. 1 am, with sen | timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANK'S. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward? of fifteen months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever | and Ague ; and during the time could hud nothing— though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me I any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ■ ever,your pills wore recommended to me, by one |of our best pin sicians, and 1 arn most grateful and 1 i happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used 1 i two boxes when 1 found that they had restored me * |to perfect health. Since then, various members of * | my family have used them with equal success— 1 and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this 1 certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi- ! monyto the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. i H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia : Dr. J.
