He has now used them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many others who are in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of the com mittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected the permanent ana accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wearother trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any other apparatus known to the committee.” “Thecommittee are induced by the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of the profession, as the best known means of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The fol,owing is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjus it themsehes. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,from someresponsi* ble person $ i their pecuniary disability.

The following letters arc 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 signature of the proprietor in Ids 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 in <r a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated, more or less, to injure the system rather than re move any complaint. In proof of the estimation in which the Embrocation is hold by respectable men in the medical profession, as well as by the thousands of persons who have been etfectua 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.

Cheveres,from the celebrated Indian Chief VVabenothe, or Great -Moon, whilst he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu siness in the North-west with the Indians. — VVabenoshe 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 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 >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 Ottowa and Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white friend M. Cheveret, (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 nunishment by the Great Spirit, and hope that in fus hands it may do much good, and make him very i rich.” Signed WABINOSHE,his y mark.

The principles on which it acts are simple and plain.

Ttov 30 ]y fpHE great celehrilyof this unrivalled C'ompo -1 silion,especially in the Northern Slates, leaves the proprietor hut little need lo 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 ihespeed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, Ac.

Thus, it 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 m two weeks, and the most desperate cases ot w hite swelling that can be ima go ed. have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its erti- ' cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its | powers of attraction arc so wonderful that they will j at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from j perva ting the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior lo any medicine heretofore discovered for the 1 dialed ha.- k and limbs of horses—for tellers, ring i worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei- | nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or j ! beast.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now stand before the public as high in 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. They have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry them ; and there are but few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good elfects. The ccrtilicales 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 performed by this mediem 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 tached to this. They’ are in general use as a family medicine and there 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, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhma,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 debility. 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 requestor y r our agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a tew lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and I would add, that you may make use oi 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 aw? the benetits we have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them at ten dollars abox 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 lo me that your medicine is a sim ple purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case. I 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 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 wore introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal pable were their effecjts that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she \v as ! 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 I of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills - were equally successful in rescuing the patients i from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu | larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in | this section of the country7 But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, 1 never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from bal eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. 1 am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward® of fifteen | months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever i and Ague; and during the time could hnd nothing — : though 1 had applied to every tiling that gave me ! any thing like permanent relief. At length, hovv | ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one ! of our best physicians, and 1 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 i my family have used them with equal success— and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise you i of the fact, and to request of you to publish this j certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi -1 mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un j rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 183 b. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. il. Irwin of Florence, Georgia: Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On tiie night of the llthinst.,l was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where! found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, 1 had in my pocket a broken box of your pills —four of which 1 adminislere i, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case, in conned ion with my name is at your ser vice—and 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the faculty here, that I bes eve there is not one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

States, that, he has purchased, for a very large sum and from tiie in ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnirt, of Paris hit recipe ar d right for making this astonishing mtdi cme. Until the appearance of the “ Lucina Cor dial,’’ (about three years since,) it was thought that the complaints,which it speedily overcomes, were beyond the reach of human remedy as for upwards of a thousand years, they had baffled the wisdom and ingenuity of the most profound physicians in all parts ol the world. This Cordial, however, to the great advantage of the human race,soon proved ilseif to be the desideratum so long sought for ; and accordingly,notwithstanding tl e briei peri dofu» existence, it has required a celebrity so great, thtl it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as to render a supply impossible, dis posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under obliga tions of secrecy, for England, the United Stales, and othei countries, only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has ihe subscriber pos sessed himself ol theinvaluable secret; and now hastens to give the inhabitants of his line of agents, the benefits of his speculation. “le Cordial I)e Lucine,” or, in English, “the Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigoralor of the human frame ! In all the various cases of languor, lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as if is equally its province to imparl cheerful, ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body But the peculiar virtue on which its celebrity is based, is the facility and certainly w ith which it restores Ihe virile powers when they have been destroyed by dis< ase.time,recklessness.orany of the numerous causes which terminate in tiie prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this L ordial contains nothing of a mer curial or deleterious nature, among ihe many ingre dients which compose it; but is, at «lie same time, so simple, yet so ♦ ffloacious, that while it ran reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an infan may use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding the benefits which would be sure to result from it, we cannot enter irno an analy sis ol thisine tiraable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers ol the blessings n has conferred on num bers of despairing mdi\ iduals. But t is wc cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, il any such thing at ail, as rialural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreant lunci ions, in eit her sex ; and t herefore, that tbcscevils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued <md removed by the use ol “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also en indubitable cure for the (Beet, and i he Fluor Albus,obstructed, diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for ihe incon tinence ol Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of. It is likewise an in valuable and unrivalled medicine incases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged. Most imp rtaut to the American Public.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, id 37. To Dr. Magnin—My dear friend—l am mos gratified at the unprecedented popularity of your “Luc na Cordial,” and am able to near testimony lo its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, 1 M , a gentleman ol lortune, who had iur several years abandoned himself in the vortex or dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of all his vi-deener gies. He was,indeed,reduced to the last extremity of debility and l isteiessness. for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost iiurntdiaie, and the result perfect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums in such ca»es ; but, as 1 had anticipated, without success; and when 1 saw the “ Lucius Cordial” advertised, 1 must confess thal even the great weight of your name did not give me much hoj»e in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound lo try it, how ever, and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a boitie was expended, ray patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity ot his system ; and he is now, having used four bullies, as well is ever. The number of documents, such as the above which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” would fifi a volume as large as the Bible.
