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 respectable testimonials which have, from time to time, been published to that effect in New ork 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 i never been known to fail. The following letters I arc selected Horn hundreds of others of a like de- ; : scription. It will be proper that all persons using i i he Liniment, see that it is accompanied with the < signature of the proprietoi in his own hand writing. ! Since tiie 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 -1 ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are ca'culated, more or less, to injure the system rather than re move any complaint. In proof of the estimation 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 I 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 I whose opinions and professional judgments are ■ universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, 1838. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of vour Rheumatic Embrocation,and tie beneficial effects aiising therefrom, it affords me pleasuie to state that 1 most cheerfully recommend it as an invaluable remedy, and the best known for the cure of that painful and distressing complaint, either in its acute or chronic form.

''■'HlS incomparable and invaluable remedy so X long known, and used with such unparralleled success in the Canadas for the last 30 years, 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 al! of its trying circumstances, namely, “live 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 31. 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 a ! most 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 Amenca, with a solemn promise to the Great Spirit, never to divulge the “ait of its com position until lie 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, 1 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 >l. Cheveret, 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 Ottowaand Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white 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 tiiem as a punishment by the Great Spirit, and hope that in his hands it may do much good, and make him very rich.” Signed WABINOSHE,his X mark.

The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy lor this distressing compainl is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment. That sum ich suffering should have existed forages without any discovery of an effectual preventiv ?, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. ri. now assures llie public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the must credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milted fact that ibis 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 th • sys tem has become vitiated or dehilnaied, tlnough ihe stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol the na;ural and healthy functions ol the system. 'Plus abject, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to anam. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his prrfessionai reputation on this fact.

CLARK <s■ Co. Druggists , Hamburg. nov 30 jy rpflE great celehrhyof this unrivalled Compo -1 silion,especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor hut little need to say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded to it,that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex terna! complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed the_speed and certainty of its operaiions, have the appearance of miracles ; as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, Acc. Acc., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, if prop erly applied u will remove an inveterate corn or i break and heal a bile in live days, w ill allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of w bite swelling that can be ima gir ed. have been destroyed by n 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 img the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the 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. The proprietor has received at least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his | “ tSpecific Ointm nf,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical faculty.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now stand before the public as high tn reputation, and as extensively employed in all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man.

The certificate ; that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures peifurmed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in virion 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 i lached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine ; and there afe,lhousands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they have a supply always on hand. 1 hey have no rival in curing and preventing Biliious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, tho.ic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Haoitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotchedor Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, where 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 y’our agent, , Mr. Harrison, 1 send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and I would add, that you may make use of them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I i speak of their merits from experience, as 1 and my j family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three i years ; and so great ape 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 ihe 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 purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one i case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe riod severely afflicted with dropsy in tlie 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 all their efforts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we ail consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was 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 effeqts tiiat 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 I could mention many more of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills were equally successful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in ■ this section of the country ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose 1 of 1 may mention, how ever,that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain 1 of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Rat ! | eigh, on the road lo Fayetteville. I am, with sen ; tunents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward' of fifteen i months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing — ' though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me : any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ! ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best physicians, and I am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used 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— ‘ and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise 3ou | of the fact, and to request of you to pubiish this ‘ certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi , mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un . i rivalled medicine.

Suiea. ,h.l he ho, purchased, fora very large Slira arid f . . * ventor, ihe celebrated Dr. Magnin, of p a ri I recipe ardriehl for making th.* aJi,, n i*hm Audi! cine. I ntil the appearance nf the •* Lucina Cor. dial,’’ (about three years since,) it was thought that ihe complaints,which it speedily overcomes, wer* beyond the reach of human remedy as fur upwards of a thousand years, they had baffled the wisdoo and ingenuity of the most profound physicians ul all pans ot the world. This Cordial, however to ihe great advantage of the human race,soon pr o\ed 0 \ ed itseil to be the desideratum so long sought for; an( j accordingly, notwiihsiandir.g it e brief pen dof.tJ existent e, it has required a celebrity so great, thu it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilian globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that ihe demand was so vast as to render a supply impossible, dis. posed of the recipe and right of sale, under oblig*. lions of secrecy, f*r England, the United States and othei countries,only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has ihe subscriber p os . sossed himself of the invaluable secret; and now hastens 10 give ihe inhabitants of his line cf agents the benefits of his speculation. “Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “th e Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigoralor of the human frame! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing retnt-' dy ; as if is equally' its province lo impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and visor to the body Bui the peculiar virtueon which ns celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers vv hen they have been desiro l ed by dis< ase. time, recklessness, or any of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of ihose functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, I his C ordial contains nothing of a reer. curial or deleterious nature, among ihe many ingre dients winch compose it ; but is, al the same lime, so simple, yet so«fficacious, that while it can reno vate the presented energies of a giant, an infan may use it,not only with impunity, but w ith ad vantage. The usages of society 7 are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding Die benefits which would be sure to result from it, we cannot enter into an analy sis of this inc limable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents w hich have been received, as vouchers of ihe blessings 11 has conferredon num bers of despairing individuals. Hull is wc cannot forbear remarking—that 11 has been demomir&ied that there is scarcely ever, it any such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility ol ihe procreant fund ions, in either sex ; and therefore, that theseevils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued «nd removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, end the Fluor Aibus, obstructed,diffi cult, or painful Menstruation; also, for the incon tinence ol I rine,or the involuntary discharge there ol. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled raeditine incases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and tn the dropsical affections ol the aged. Most imp rtaut to thu American Public. The United States proprietor of the celebrated “ Lucina Cordial,” or Elixir of Love,” begs to lay before the community, the following certificate, which he has received from Ihe inventor, the ihus trtous Dr. Magnin. of Pari.-, • “ Thii is to certify,that I have disposed of the recij>e for making Ihe “Luc.na Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” and also the right to sell it throughout the I ntltd Staff s of North America, to John Winters lloldervvell, >1 D.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin ; —My dear friend—l am raos gratified al the unprecedented popularity ol yous “Luc ira Cordial,” and am able 10 near testimony to its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, 1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor several years abandoned htinseli tn the vortex 01 dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from U at length by' the utter prostration of all his vmieener gies. He was,indeed,reduced to the last exiremiiy of debility and t islelessness, for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate, and the resuit parted prostration. 1 had applied ail the usual nostrum* in such cases; but, as 1 had anticipated, w.thod success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucina Cordial advertised, 1 must confess that even the great weigh l of your name did not give me much hope in it* least so far as regarded the case in hand. 1 bound lo try it, however, and was soon satisfied ol its efficacy; for betore a buttle was patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity °* his system ; and he is now, having Used four botU*** as w ell as ever.
