It is but two short years since I first ventured upon an tinknawn ocean, and I have discovered the precious object 1 was iin search of—HEALTH. Vegetifcle medi- Icines were indeed known when I caumenced Imy search, but their use was not. Jy the use lof them, I have not only passed fropi the de jected invalid, to the hale, hearty wd active ; man of business, but, comparatively speaking, I have renewed my youth. I can ims, with confidence in my own experience, alviso with my fellow citizens. Does the reader want proof that the VEGETABLE MEDICINES are suitable to his own ease ? I havi on file at my office, 307 Broadway, hundreds >f letters, from some of the most respectable citizens of this my native land, voluntarily effeted in tes timony of the virtues of A GOOD VEGETA BLE MEDICINE. Persons whose constitutions have Icon near ly ruined by the “all.infallible mrn ral pre parations of the day, will bear me wijness, that the Life Medicines, ami such only, are the rue course to iieriiianciit good health joiin MqrFAT. General remarks re’/.ltrc to Muffut s Life Pills unit Plneiiix Hitters. These medicines have long been known and appreciated, for their extraordinary and imme diate powers of restoring perfect healh.lo per sons suffering under nearly every kind of dis ease to which tiie human frame is liujile. In many hum!reds of certificated Instances, tliev have even rescued sufi’erers froil the very verge of an untimely grave, after all the de ceptive nostrums ot the day had uttetly failed ; and to many thousands they have parmxnent ly secured that uniform enjoyment oflu alth, without which life itself is hut a partial bless ing. bio great, indeed, has their cificacv inva riably and infallibly proved, that it has appear ed sear u ly iess than miraculous to these who were un icqu ikited with the beautifully philo sophical principles upon which they are com pounded, ami upon which they consequently act. It was to their manifest and sensible ac tion in purifying the springs and cliauiieD of life and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor, th at they were indebted for their name, whirli was bestowed upon them at the sponta neous request of several individuals whose lives they had obviously saved. The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity afforded by the universal ditfusion nfthe daily press, for placing his \ EGETABLE LIFE I’ll-LG within the knowledge ami reach of ev ery individual in the community. Unlike the host of pernicious <p:ackeries, which boast of vegetable ingredients, the Li'e Pills are purely and son : n v::xi.t.wami contain neither Mercurv. Antimony, Arsenic, nor any other mineral, in anv form whatever. They are en tirely composed of extracts from rare am! pow erful plants, the virtues of which, though long known to several Indian tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are alt i gel her unknown to the ignorant ore tenders to medical science; and were never before ad ministered in so happily efica 'ions a coiubinn tie.n. Their first operation is to loos, n from the ; coats of the stomach and bowels, the various j impurities and crudities constantly settling a round them unit t" remove 1l»* limit. «* U l‘*o- j ees which collect in the convolutions of the | small intestines. Other medicines only par- j tinliy cleanse thyse. ami leave such collected j masses behind, as to produce habitual costive- I ness, with all its train of evils, or sudden diar rh ei. with its immiaent dangers. This fact is , ivi 11 known to ail regular anatomists, who ex- j amiiiine the human bowels after death : am! j hence the prejudice of these well informed I men against the quack medicines of the age. ; The second effected the V LGE'I ABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the blad- j der, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, \ the healthful action of which entirely depends i upon the regularity of the urinary organs 1 The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heart, being thus purified by : thorn, ami nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely through the ! veins, renews every part of the system, and ; triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the hUn:ming check. The fidhiwin:' are among (lie distressing va ! riet v of human diseases, to which the Yegeta j bio Life Pills are well known to be infallible : DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the first and second stomachs, creating a flow of pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and a i rid kind: t"ii!iilnir-.

Pm rs of all hinds, by restoring the blood to a regular circulation, through the process of perspiration in some eases, and the thorough solution of all intestinal obstructions in others. The LIFE PILLS have been known to cure Hhcnmatism pernianent.lv in three weeks, and Gout in half the time, by re moving local inflammation from the muscles , and 1 giiniriits of the joints. Dropsi/s of all kinds, bv fr eiiig and strengthening the kid neys and bladder, they operate must delight fully on these important organs, and hence have ever been found a certain remedy for the worst cases of Grace!. Also, tt'omis, by and lodging from the turnings of the bowels the slimy matter to which these creatures adhere: .Isthina and Consumption, by relieving the air vessels of the lungs from the mucus, which even slight e Ids will occasion, which if not removed becomes hardened, and poduees, those dreadful diseases.

Common Colds and Infiutnza, w ill always be cured by one dose, or. bv two. even in the worst cases. Piles. as a remedy for this most distressing and obstinate malady, the Vegetable Life Pills de- I serve a distinct and emphatic recommenda tion. It is well known to hundreds in this j eitv, that the Proprietor of the invaluable Pills j was himself afflicted with this complaint for : upwards of thirty-fire years, and that he tried j in vain every remedy prescribed within the j w hole compass of the Materia Medica. He ! however, at length, tried the medicine which , he now offers to the public, and he was cured in a very short' ime, after hi* recovery had been pronounced not only improbable, but ab solutely impossible, by any human means. DIRECTIONS FOR USE—The Proprie tor of the Vf.getablj: Lifk Pills does not follow the base and mercenary practice of the j quacks of the day, in advising persons to take his Pills in large quantities. Nogoodmedi-j cine can possibly be so required. These Pills are to be taken at bed time every night, for a week or fortnight, according to the obstinacy of the disease. The usual dose is from 2 too, , according to the constitution of the person. Very delicate persons should begin with but two, and increase as the nature of the case j may require: those more robust, or of very cos tive habit, may begin with 3, and increase j to 4, or even 5 Pills, and they will effect a suf ficiently happy change to guide the patient in their further These Pills sometimes oc- I casion sickness and vomiting, though very seldom, unless the stomach is very foul; this, however, may be considered a favorable synip- ; tom, as the patient will find himself at once relieved, and by perseverance will soon re cover. They usually operate within 10 or 12 hours, and never give pain, unless the bow els are very much encumbered. They may be taken by the most delicate females under any circumstances.—lt is, however, recom mended. tlntthose in laterperiods of pregnan cy should take but one at a time, and thus con tinue to keep the bowels open: and even two may be taken where the patient is very cos- : tive. One pill in a solution of two table spoons full of water, may be given to an in fant in tiie following doses—a tea spoon full ; evvry two hours till it operates; for a child from one to five years of age, half a pill—and from five to ten one pill. TIIE PI KENIX BITTERS, are so called, because thej' possess the power of restoring the expiring embers of health, to a glowing vigor throughout ' the constitution, as the Phoenix is said to be restored to life l'roin the ashes of its own dissolution. The Phoenix Bitters are entirely vegetable, composed of roots found only in certain parts of the west ern country, which will infallibly cure FE VERS AND AGUES of all kinds; will never fail to eradicate entirely all the effects of Mer cury, infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla, and will immedi ately cure the determination of BLOOD TO THE IIEAD; never fail in the sickness inci dent In you up females; and will be found a certain remedy in all cases of nerrous d/biiit’i unit ireakness of the most impaired constitu tions. Asa remedy for Chronic and Injl/nn matonj Phi umatisin , the efficacy of the Phnenix Bitters will Le demonstrated by lli« use of a s ::gle bottle. The usual close of these bitters is half a wine glass full, in water or wine, and tiiis qu "-ltitv may he taken two or three times a day, about half an hour before meals, or n less quantity may be taken at all tunes. To those who are afflicted with indigestion after meals, these Bitters will prove invaluable, as they very greatly increase the action of the principal viscera, help them to perform their f unctions, and enable the stomach to discharge into the bowels whatever is offensive. This indigestion is easily and speedily removed, appetite restored, and the mouths of the ab sorbent vessels being cleansed, nutrition is facilitated, and strength of body and energy of mind are the happy results.

Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia Palsy', j Piles, injuries from the use of mercury, quinine, i and other diseases of long standing, it may be j found necessary to take both the Life Pills | and the Phcunix Bitters, in the doses before ! recommended. N. B —Tin •se Pills and the Bitters will get 1 all mercury out of the system infinitely faster j than the best preparations of Sarsaparilla, and are a certain remedy for the rushing of blood to the head, or nil violent headaches, tie (lau leiireux , e.—All persons who are predisposed to apopi/ nj. patsy, Ac, should never be with out the Life Pills or the Bitters, for one dose in time will save life. They equalize the cir culation of the blood, draw all pressure from the head, restore prespiration, and throw oil every impurity by the pores of the skin. IMPORTANT NOTICE. Fersons using til" Life Medicines, arc ad vised to take the Pills at night, in sufficient qantities to operate two or three times on the bowels in the course of the next day. Also take a table spoonful of the Bitters half an hour before each meal. For those of a delicate or enfeebled constitution, half the quantity may be sufficient.
