LADY’S BOOK,
AND
Msmdies American Atagrazlne;
Published by the Proprietor for nearly
TEX YEARS.
Edited by Mr*. J. HALE and Mis* LESLIE.
Publisher and Associate Editor,
LOUIS A. GOOEY.
Eighteenth and Nineteenth Volumes.
WITH a circulation double the extent of any
other monthly of the same nature. Not
a State or Territory in which may not be found
this popular publication. The Lady's Book, and
as-it has emphatically been termed, by a num
ber of the contemporary press, The Lady's
National Msgaaiwe, is issued monthly in the
city of Philadelphia. Seventeen volaines have
already been published, and in a very short
time if Will in itself comprise a library of the
contributions of the Most Celebrated Writers of
the Age. —This work is intended principally as
a repository for the Lady Writers of America,
most of whom of auy eminence contribute to
its pages—and it is condncted upon the same
liberal principles as in former years—PAY ING
for original contributions, in the most liberal
manner, thus securing a G'ataxy of Female
Talent which can not be, or at least is not,
employed by any other Publisher. As an evi
dence of what kind of persons use the Lady 's
Book as a vehicle to convey their productions
to the public, reference may be made to the
cover of any of the Nos. lately published, ns
it would take up too much room to give all the
names.
Sirs, hale a miss Leslie
Still occupy the same stations that they did in
a former year, and we sliull nlso have it in our
power to convey to the public some of the de
lightful effusions of
MRS. SIOOURJYEY.
One feature in the work which hus given so
much satisfaction, the Splendid Colored Plates
of Fashions, will be continued.—These are en
graved and colored in a superior manner, mid
arranged expressly for the Lady's Book. Also.
TWO PACES OF MUSIC
Will be given Monthly, —These Embellishments
alone are more than worth the extraordinary
low price at which the hook is put. The Sub
scriber loses no opportunity to aid his work
with pictorial embellishments, poetical effu
sions, works of Fiction, and sound inoral arti
cles, (hat make it a desideratum in every fam
ily. His whole attention is given to the con
ducting of tire Book, assisted by the Ladies
previously mentioned—hence its superiority.
PORTRAITS ON STEEL,
Os the most celebrated Female Writers
Os our country, form part of the work. In ad
dition to the Plates of Fashions, the June and
December Nos. contain beautiful Title Pages,
engraved on Steel.

The Publisher of the Lady's Book begs
leave to call the attention of his Subscribers to
his various other publications, most of them
by Ladies. He would mention first, a work
on Cookery, by one of the Editors, Miss Leslie,
a work which has passed through many edi
tions, and is still in the gr- atest demand in
large cities. It is an invaluable auxiliary to
housekeeping.
DIRECTIONS FOR COOKING,
lu its various branches, by Miss Leslie.
Third Edition, with Improvements and Sup
plementary Receipts
NOTICES.—“ This is the most complete
manual of cooking which has yet been pub
lished. All the processes of preparing meat,
vegetables, and pastry, all the secrets of the
dishes which have a thousand times delighted
our palates and puzzled our brains, are here
laid open to every one who chooses to pry into
them; and every housewife who is furnished
with this key, may provide her table with a va
riety of delicacies which heretofore have been
thought inaccessible but through the skill of
professed cooks.—[Saturday News.
“ This is tin* hook for housekeepers. Full
of useful information connected with the sub
ject of gastronomy.' I —[Boston Post.
“ And this reul housewife hook, which ought
to hold a middle place between the parlor anil
the kitchen, is the work of Miss Leslie, whose
delightful pen has so often enriched the ele
gant literature of our country. This volume
contains the art of rooking, preparing, and
carving the whole list of eafables, from the
egg to the apple. The kook is a perfect rade
mecum for the housekeeper, and we should
think would be in demand for the soundness
of its culinary doctrine, and the simplicity of
its precepts.' I —[U. S. Gazette.
“ Being independent of the kitchen, and
unqualified for an umpirage in culinary pro
prieties, we handed the book to a good house
wife, who pronounces it worthy the Author
ess—the best compliment thut could be bestoiced
on it.” —Nat. Gaz.
This valuable work contains nearly 1000
receipts, and no book on the subject of cooke
ry, Ac. has been more highly praised or is
more deserving of it, than the one now offer
ed. The subscriber has a few copies done up
in Nos with paper covers, for the convenience
of sending by mail—and done up in that man
ner purposely to oblige patrons of the Lady's
Book, who may reside at a distance from large

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
Southern BS ar p .
.1 new paper to be established in Augusta.
devoted to the science ok music.
rrniE subscriber in appealing to a generous
£. public to sustain him in liis undertaking
is aware of the numerous difficulties against
which he will hove to contend, but with u firm
resolution, and a devotedness to lus business,
he feels confident of overcoming them.
The idea of starling a paper at the South, de
voted entirely to the subject of music, inav
appear novel and visionary, but with a little
reflection, it will be found such a work is
much needed in this section of our country.
The north has gone far ahead of us in this
useful science, and it is no doubt, owing to
the existence of tbier numerous journals
through whose columns the principles of Mu
sic arc simplified and brought‘within the com
prehension of Juvenile learners.—lt is true
there are many valuable books written on the
subject of Music, but they are not within the
reach of all and even if they were, they are not
written in a style to be understood by that
class standing more in need of instruction—l
mean scholars. To depend altogether on the
labors of the teacher is depending on too much.
It is not like learning grammar or history,
w’here the pupil has a text book to which to re
fer. The teacher gives instruction one day
which is forgotten the next. So it will be the
aim of the Editor of tbe llarp to make the sci
ence as sasy as possible, by leading the pupil
on gradually from the elementary to more dif
ficult branches of Musical Science.
The columns of the Harp will be open to all
communicationson the subject of.Music, wheth
er of a sacred or secular nature.
Each number wilUcontain oneormore-pieces
of original or selected Music, for the Piano,
Guitar or Flute; Church Music will also find a
place in our columns. Thus the Harp will be
a welcome visitor to the pupil, the amateur,
and the religious community.
The Harp will be issued Semi-Monthly,
printed on fine paper, in royal quarto form (like
the Augusta Mirror,) and furnished to subscrib
ers on the following
TERMS.
Single Copy $3 00
Two Copies 5 00
The subscription money to be paid on deliv

scribers be obtained to warrant the undertaking, i

PROSPECTUS OF THE AMERICAN
MUSEUM. The American Museum of
Literature und the Arts will combine the so
lidity of a review with the lighter miscellany
of a magazine ; besides impartial review* of
important works, and short notices of minor
literary productions by the editors, it will em
brace essays, tales, histories, poetry, litera
ry and scientific intelligence, and translations
from standard and periodical works in other
languages, contributed by some of the ablest
writers of the day.
The Magazine will also contain a series of
reviews of such writers as have by their ta
lents shed lustre upon American literature.
These reviews will be accompanied by por
traits of the authors, engraved on steel by the
best artists. The work will be beautifully
printed, with new type, upon fine paper, and
will make two volumes each year, of more thau
500 pages each.
Agencies will be established in the principle
cities, and arrangements made to deliver tin
work free of postage. As the Museum is
printed on a medium and a half sheet, the
highest postage that can be charged to any
part of the country, for one year, will be
sl*os. Persons desirous of acting as agents
will please apply post paid. Terms $5 per
annum, payable on the delivery of the first
number—five copies S2O.

A CONTRAST.
ALL nations, from the remotest ages, have
had ships, but Columbus only found out
the w r ay to America. Before the time of the
great Spanish navigator, people were only en
abled to paddle about the shores. Just so with
the Life Medicines. It is but two short years
since I first ventured upon an unknown ocean,
and I have discovered the precious object I was
in search of—HEALTH. Vegetable medi
cines were indeed known when I commenced
my search, but their use was not. By the use
iof them, I have not Only passed from the de
fected invalid, to the hale, hearty and active
man of business, but, comparatively speaking,
1 have renewed my youth. 1 can thus, with
confidence in my own experience, advise with
my fellow citizens. Does the reader want
proof that the VEGETABLE MEDICINES
are suitable to his own case ? I have on file at
my office, 307 Broadway, hundreds of letters,
from some of the most respectable citizens of
this my native land, voluntarily offered in tes
timony of the virtues of A GOOD VEGETA
BLE MEDICINE.
Persons whose constitutions have been near
ly ruined by the “all-infallible" mineral pre
parations of the day, will bear me witness, that
the Life Medicines, and such only, arc the
true course to permanent good health.
JOHN MOFFAT.
General remarks relutire to Moffat's Life Pills
and Phirnix Bitters.
These medicines have long been known and
appreciated, for their extraordinary and imme
diate powers of restoring perfect health, to per
sons suffering under nearly every kind of dis
ease to which the human frame is liable.
In many hundreds of certificated instances,
they have even rescued sufferers from the very
verge of an untimely grave, after all the de
ceptive nostrums ot the day had utterly failed !
and to many thousands they have permanent
ly secured that uniform enjoyment of health,
without which life itself is but a partial bless
ing. So great, indeed, has their efficacy inva
riably anti infallibly proved, that it has appear
ed scarcely less than miraculous to those who
were unacquainted with the beautifully philo
sophical principles upon which they are com
pounded, and upon which they consequently
act. It was to their manifest and sensible ac
tion in purifying the springs and channels of
life and enduing them with renewed tone and
vigor, that they were indebted for their name,
which 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 diffusion of the daily
press, for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE
PILLS within the knowledge and reach of ev
ery individual in the community. Unlike the
host of pernicious quackeries, which boast of
vegetable ingredients, the Life Pills are purely
and solely vegetable, and contain neither
Mercury, Antimony, Arsenic, nor any other
mineral, in any form whatever. They are en
tirely composed of extracts from rare and pow
erful plants, the virtues of which, though long
known to several Indian tribes, and recently
to some eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are
altogether unknown to the ignorant pretenders
to medical science ; and were never before ad
ministered in so happily efficacious a combina
tion.
Their first operation is to loosen from the
coats of the stomach and bowels, the various
impurities and crudities constantly settling a
round them ; and to remove the hardened fae
; ces which collect in the convolutions of the
small intestines. Other medicines only par
tially cleanse these, and leave such collected
masses behind, as to produce habitual costive
ness, with all its train of evils, or sudden diar
rhoea, with its imminent dangers. This fact is
well known to all regular anatomists, who ex
aminine the human bowels after death: and
hence the prejudice of these well informed
men against the quack medicines of the age.
The second effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE
PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the blad
der, and by this means, the liver and the lun<rs,
j the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs
i The blood, which takes its red color from the
I agency of the liver and the lungs before it
passes into the heart, being thus purified by
them, and 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 blooming cheek.
The follow ing are among the distressing va
riety of human diseases, to which the Vegeta
ble Life Pills are well known to be infallible :
D\ SPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, creating a How of
pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and a
crid kind:— Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart,
Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and hcad-uche.
Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor, and
Mcluncholly, which are the Jeneral symp
toms of Dyspepsia, will vanish, as a natural
consequence of its cure. Costiceuess, by
cleansing the whole length of the intestines
with a solvent process, and without violence,
all violent purges leave the bowels costive
within two days. Diarrhera and Cholera by
removing the sharp acrid fluids by which
these complaints are occasioned, and by pro
moting the lubricative secretion of the mucus
membrane. Peters of all kinds, by restoring
the blood to a regular circulation, through the
process of perspiration in some cases, and the
thorough solution of all intestinal obstructions
in others. The LIFE FILLS have been
known to cure Rheumatism permanently in
three weeks, and Gout in half the time, by re
moving local inflammation from the muscles
and ligaments of the joints. Dropsies of all
kinds, by freeing and slrengthening the kid-"
neys and bladder, they operate most delight
fully on these important organs, and hence
have ever been found a certain remedy for
the worst eases of Graved, Also, Worms, by
dislodging from the turnings of the bowels the
slimy matter to which these creatures adhere;
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the air
vessels of the lungs from the mucus, which
even slight colds will occasion, which if not
removed becomes hardened, and poduces
those dreadful diseases. Scurry, Ulcers, and
Inveterate Sores , by the perfect purity which
these Life Pillu give to the blood, and all the
hamors; Scorhatie Eruptions, and Bad Com
plexions by their alterative effect upon the
fluids that feed the skin, the morbid state of
which occasions all Eruptive complaints, Sal
low, Cloudy and other disagreeable Complex
ions. The use of these Pills for a very Bhort
time, will effect an entire cure of Salt rheum,
Erysipelas, and a striking improvement in the
Clearness of the skin. Common Colds and
lufuenza, will always be cared by one dose,
or, by two, even in tbe worst cases. Piles,
—as a remedy for' this most distressing and
obstinate malady, the Vegetable Life Pills de
serve a distinct and emphatic sestnwmenda
tion. It is well fciwvww to fritttdreds in this
city, that tbe Proprietor »f the invaluable Pills
was himself afflicted with ffeis complaint for
upwards of thirty-five years, and that he tried
in vain every remedy prescribed within the
whole compass of the Material Mrdica. He
however, at length, tric’d the medicine which
he now offers tG the public, and be* was cured
in a very short ime, after his recovery had
been pronounced not only improbable, but ab
solutely impossible, by any human means.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE—The Proprie
tor of the Vegetable Like Pills does not
follow the base and mercenary practice' of file 1
quacks of the day, in advising persons to fake'
his Pills in large quantities. Nogood medi
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 usuhl dose is from 2to 5,
according to the constitution of the person.
Very delicate persons should begin with but
two, and increase as the nature of the case
may require: those more robust, or of very cos
tive habit, may begin with 3, and increase
to 4, or even 5 Pills, and they will effects suf
ficiently happy change to guide the patient in
their further use. These Pills sometimes oc
casion sickness and vomiting, though very
seldom, unless the stomach is very foul; this,
however, may be considered a favorable symp
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, that those in later periods of pregnan
cy should take but one at a time, and thug con
tinue to keep the bowels opeflrand even two
may be taken where the patient is very cos
tivp One pill in a solution of two table
spoons full of water, may be given to an in
fant in the following doses—a tea spoon full
every 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.
THE PHOENIX BITTERS, are so called,
because they possess the power of restoring
the expiring embers of health, to a glowing
vigor throughout the constitution, as the
Phamix is said to be restored to life from 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 HEAD; never fail in the sickness inci
dent to young females; and will be found a
certain remedy in all cases of nervous debility
oml weakness of the most impaired constitu
tions. Asa remedy for Chronic and Inflam
matory Rheumatism, the efficacy of the Phoenix
Bitters will be demonstrated by the use of a
single bottle. The usual dose of these bitters
is half a wine glass full, in water or wine, and
this quantity may be taken two or three times
a day, about half an hour before meals, ora
less quantity may be taken at all times. 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
junctions, 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. For farther
particulars of MOFFATS LIFE PILLS, and
PIHENIX BITTERS, apply at Mr. Moffat's
office, No. 307 Broadway, New York,where the
Pills can be obtained for 25 cents, 50 cents, or
$1 per box; and the Bitters for $1 or $2 per
bottle. (LTNumerous certificates of the won
derful efficacy of both, may be there inspect
ed.
In some obstinate and complicated cases of
chronic and inflammatory Rheumatism, Liver
Complaints, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia Palsy,
Piles, injuries from the use of mercury, quinine,
and other diseases of long standing, it may be
found necessary to take both the Life Pills
and the Phoenix Bitters, in the doses before
recommended.
N. B.—These Pills and the Bitters will get
all mercury out of the system infinitely faster
than the best preparations of Sarsaparilla, and
are a certain remedy for the rushing of blood
to the. head, or all violent headaches, tie i’°v
leureux,Ac. —All persons who are predisposed
to apoplexy, palsy, Ac, should never be with
out the Life Pills or the Bitters, for one dose
in time will save life. They equalize She cir
culation of the blood, draw all pressure from
the head, restore prespiration, and throw oft
every impurity by the pores of the skin.
IMPORTANT NOTICE.
Persons using the Lift Medicines, are ad
vised to take the Pills at night, in sufficient
qualities to operate two or three tunes 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.
