(rwtf MOFFAT'S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES medicines are indebted for ihcir name I lo lh* ir mani.'est and sensible action in puri fying the ypring and channels of life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In manv hun dred ccriified cases wbßh has made public, and in almost ever) species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happv effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AM) PIIENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully ami publicly ac i nnwkdged by the persons beoefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted wiih the beau iitnly phih sophiral principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they e:ncequenily act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and description. ’1 heir first opcraiion is to loosen from the coals ol the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon tantly settling around them ; anc to remove the hardened feces which collect i convulsions of the smallest intestines. Other ; medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave ! >ueh collected masses behind as to produce habitu | al cosliveness with > 11 its train of evils, or inasnd | den d.airlupa, with its eminent dangers. This fact is well known lo ail regular anatomists, who ex amine tiie human bowels after death ; and hen-e the prejuditeof those well infiirmcd men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her alded to tlie puhlie hv ignorant pi rsons. 'J he se cond effect of the Life Medic.nes is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, ihe healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blocd, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before il passes into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely th.ough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lile Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy lor Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Falpitatton of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump lion, Scurv), Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbunc Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysij*elas, Common Colds and influenza and various oli.er complaints which afflict the humar frame, in fever and ague, paiticularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any tnirg that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It ts alone by the resuh of a fair trial.

Robertson SlCo., forthe treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly 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 oi the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the i patient, and often under trials more severe than ; are usually ventured upon by those who weai other : trusses; 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 j struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of j the profession, as the best known means of rae ; chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the j highest chances of radical cure.” i The following is from the Southern Medical and i Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of Jiernia, 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 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.

MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO—a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component pails are 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 extreme North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more 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 othcis what they have done for such as mav have used them ; as Jiis 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 has long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it aicertaine i that .ney contained alterative and diu retic properties. 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, as they justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in his city.

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 hich has attended it through al! of its trying c cumstances, namely, “five days,”—the same su cess 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 Wabesothe. 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 abnost 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 “ait of its com position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although free to use it in their respective tribes, which places it in the hand#of every Indian who rely with, 1 may say, religious conlidence on its cura ble powers. Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can be anglisizcd of the deed given by Wabenoshe, to >l. Chevcret, when he purchased the original recipe, and had twice assisted thf Ckief himself through the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture.

The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing corapaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so mich suffering should have existed forages without any discovery of an effectual prevenliv ?°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 w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milted fact that this complaint, w hether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who ihink they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, thanh a sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, llnough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of jhc natural and healthy functions ol the system.

Indeed and certainly of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouutis, corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, &c. <fec., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, il prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in live days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of w bite swelling that can bo ima gined, have been destroyed by it m 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 thry will at once arrest the poison and ihus prevent it from perva ling the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed back and limbs of horses—for tellers, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every exter nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or 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 effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in variou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted, that no medicine of the kiul has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine md there are.lhousands of families who declare they re never satisfied 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 tiie Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongua, 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, 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 your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your pii'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 I and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great an? the benefits wo have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them alien 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 purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case. I have a sister who bad been for a iong pe riod severely afliicted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the very verge of the gra\ e. 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 all 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 effects that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to healtli. 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 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 fiom the immense quantity you dispose of I may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, 1 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' of fifteen : months, I have been ciucily afliiclcd with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though 1 had applied to every thing that gave ”ne any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best i>hy sicians, and I arn most grateful and happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used two boxes when I 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 you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as lam anxious to add ;ny 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. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th inst., I was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ciazen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his son 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 admiuistere !, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case,in connection with rny name is at your ser vice—and I have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the faculty here, that I believe there is not one of them who does not use it in his private practice. Yours most resp’y. March 13, 1839. J. H. IRWIN, M. D. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R. L, Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences of the quantify taken, and are decidedly superior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills. Extract fiom a letter by Dr. Hopson of Bangor, Me , Jan. 9, 1839.

Extract ol a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson, N. Y., Juae 3, 1830. —1 was aware that Dr. Peters was one of the best chemists in the United States, and felt assured that he would some day (fiom his intimate knowledge of the properties of herbs and drugs) produce an efficient medicine, and I must acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond to ray expectations. They are indeed a superior medicine, and reflect credit alike upon the Chemist the Physician, and the Philosopher. ’ illtuiLtMiHi co. .a, Feb. 7,13 b? Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills in my practice for he last twelve months, I take pleasure in giving my testimony of their good ellects in oases of dys pepsia, sick head-ache, bilious levers, and other diseases, produced by inactivity of the liver. They are a safe and mild aperient, being the best article of the kind I ever used. GEORGE C. SCOTT M. D. Extract of a letter from Dr. Scott of Baltimore, Dec. 17,1836. —I am in the daily habit of prescri bing them, (Peters’ Pills) and they in nearly all cases answered my purpose. I have discarded other medicines, some of them very good ones, in their favor. Charlotte, N.C., Jan. 1, 1837.

Until the appearance of the “Lucina f dial,’’ (about three years since,) it was thought tui (he complaints, which it speedily overcomes we' 1 beyond i he reach ol human remedy, as fonmwa I of a thousand years, they had baffled the wisd and ingenuity of the most profound physician ° Bl all pans of the world.

Dr Magnin soon finding that the Homano was so vast as to render a supply impossible, di< posed of the recipe and right ol sale, tindero’blwa tions of secrecy, fbr England, the United fciaL and otbet countries,only preserving France Italy for himself. Thus fas the subscriber sussed himself of the invaluable secret; end n uV v hastens to give the inhabitants of his line of a-r en!( . the benefits of his speculation. e ’ “Le Cordial l)e Lucine,” or, in English, ‘., np Lucira Cordial,” ten general invigorator of q lo human frame! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing rentf.’ dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body Hut the peculiar virtneou which n s celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers when they have been destroyed by dis« ase.time,recklessness.orany of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a me r . curia! or deleterious nature, among the many in«rfl dients which compose it; but is, at the same time so simple, yet so ( flicacious, that while it can reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an ml'an 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 sure to result from it, wo cannot enter into an analy sis ol this ine-timable Cordial here, or publish many ot the documenls which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings it lias conform] on num bers of despairing individuals. But this wc cannot forbear remarking—l hat it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, it any such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreant functions, in either sex ; and therefore, that those evils are the cflecis of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued did removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus, obstructed,diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ot Urine,or the involuntary discharge there 01.
