ClNa JOURS, OR ANTi-BALSAMIC GONORRHCEAL SOLUTION, Warranted to cure in Five Days. TXHIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so long known, and used with such unparrallcled success in tho Canadas for the last 30 ycais, 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 pri/e 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 Nortlicrn lati tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by M. Chevcres, 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. — Wabcnoshc 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, hut hy 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 (ircat 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 anglisi/ed of the deed given by Wabenoshc, to M. Chcveret, when he purchased the original rcei|)e, and had twice assisted the Chief himself through the tedious manipulatory process us manufacture. Few white men would credit the length of lime which is consumed in preparing the article for im mediate use. TRANSLATION, “I, Wabenoshc, Chief of the nations Ottowa and Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which 1 have for my white friend M. Cheveret, (for he has done many good things for me and my people,) 1 give to him my greatest rare for the bint 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 WABINOSHE.Iiis X mark.

MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF J J TOMATO—a substitute for Calomel, and lues nut belong to the family us quack medicines; fur the reason that the component parts arc made known to the faculty, or any one else that may wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx iously looked for, some one in almost the extrci: e North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting so be made from the stalk, a thing nut inure aosuiu than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, and will do for othets what they have done for such as mav have used them ; as this is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the system in much better condition than the other kind -, many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It lias long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained that they contained alterative and diu retic proi>crties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that they know what it is Were it a patent mystery, they would be bound to reject the medicine, us they justly do the one thousand and oue cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse tire system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, wc lesm, will soon be in this city. Wc all know something about this. June IS ts Radical Cure oMlcrmaur Rupture, by Dr. Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses. riIHE subscriber tins opened an office, at the Drug store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson &Uo., for the treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these listly celebrated instruments. 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 ol the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have efleeted the permanent ami 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 arc usually ventured upon by those who wearothcr trusses j trials that would be imprudent with any other apparatus known to the committee,” “ The committee 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 Dost known weans of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The following 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 lo 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 adjusi it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate, from someresponsi ble person,of their pecuniary disability. The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable to every variety of reducibWrupture, feb M F. M. ROBERTSON.M. D.

The principles on which it acts ore simple and plain. It is an a milled 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 Ihe first cause, that, tli» sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through the stomach, and that only through ihe same cbiinncl must they expects restoration ol ihe natural and hcnlihy functions ol the system.

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 lias 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 theirgoed effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of which arc from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. | Often have the cures performed by this medieiii been the subject of editorial comment, in virion newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth he 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 are,thousands of families who declare they are 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, Files, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongus, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrlima,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, ami 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, —Hy requestof your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your pil's; and 1 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 1 and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years; and so great ase the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them at ten dollars abox than have my house without them. 1 will not enumerate the afflictions they have relieved ns of; hut 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 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 hy the most eminent physicians that money could procure; hut all 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 was in this situation, ex pecting every day to he 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, 1 and all who were witness of it, (but more especially (he suffering party,) considered to he the next thing to miraculous; and yet 1 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 1 add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country } But this 1 presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. I may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use,l never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Ral eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward o of fifteen months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing — though 1 had app i. d 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 ''■'vvy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used j two boxes when i found that they had restored me 1 to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success— and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi mony to 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, H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia: Dr. J. F. Peters —My Dear Sir —On the night of the llthinst., 1 was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his sun laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Cronp) 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 administere I, with sucli immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case, in connection with my name is at your ser vice—and 1 have the pleasure to he able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the faculty here, that 1 hel eve there is not one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

Extract of a letter from Dr Gurney of New Or leans, La.,Oct. 9, 1837.—1 have received much as sistance in my practice—especially in jaundice and yellow fever, from the use of Peters’ Pills.

This Cordial, however, to the great ndvanlagcof thehuman race,soon proved itse'.f to be the desideratum so long sought fur; and accordingly, notwithstanding lie briel peri dofua existence, it has required a celebrity so great, that A it is eagerly inquired (or throughout the civilized globe.

Thus has the subscriber pos sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and now hastens (ogive the inhabitants of his line us agency the benefits of his speculation. “Lc Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, ‘‘the Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorntor of the human frame I In all the various cases of languor, lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body But the peculiar virlueon which its celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers w hen they have been destroyed hy disease,time, recklessness,orally of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, ihist ordial contains nothing of a mer curia! or deleterious nature, among the many ingre. dienls which compose it; but is, at the same lime, so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an infant may use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding the hem fits which would be sore to result from it, weeannot enter into an analy sis of this inestimable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num bersof despairingindividuals. But this wc cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all, os natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of (be procreant functions, in either sex; and therefore, that theseevils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued and removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also r.n indubitable cure for theGleet.and the Fluor Albus,obstructed,diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ol Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled medicine in cases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels. October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin;—My dear friend— l am most gratified at I lie unprecedented popularity ol your “Lucina Cordial,” and am able io bear testimony to its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, 1 >1 , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor several years abandoned himsell in the vortex oi dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of all his virile ener gies. He was, indeed, red need to Ihe last exiremtiy ol debility ami t istelessness, for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immtdiuie,and tho result perfect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases ; but, as I had anticipated, without success; and when I saw the “ Luogia Cordial” advertised, 1 must confess that even the great weight of your name did not give me much hope in it, nt least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound lo try it,howev;r,and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a buttle was expended, my patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of his system ; and tie is now, having used four bottles, as w ell is ever. The numlier of documents, such as the above w hich have been received bv Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “ Lo Cordial de Lucine,” would fill a volume as large as the Bible.
