The cause of bilious complaint’s AND A MODE OF CURE. -A well regu j luted mid proportionate quantity of bile upon the 1 stomach is always requisite for the promotion of ’ sound health—it stimulates digestion, and keeps the intestinal canal five from all obstructions. Ontlie interior surface ofthe liver is n peculiar bladder, in whiehthe bile is first preserved, being formed hy the liver from the blood. Thence.it pusses into the stom ach and intestines, and regulates the indigestion. Thus we see when there is a deficiency of bile, the body is constantly costive. On the other hand, an , overabundance of bile, causes frequent nausea in the stomach ; and often promotes very severe attacks of disease, which sometimes end in death, i Fevers always procedc by symtoms of a disor dered stomach ; as are also scrofulous disorders, and all symnathelical functional, organic or febrile | diseases. From the smile cause, the natural and i healthy action ofthe heart, and the whole vnsculur j system is inquired and reduced below ite natural stan j dard; as exhibited in palpitations, languid pulse, torpors ofthe limbs, syncope, und even death itself, in consequence of an overabundance of a peculiar of fensive substance to the digestive organs. The approach of bilious diseases is at nil times attended by decided symptoms of an existing disea sed state, oft he stomach and bowels; i. e. with those signs which are known to point out their contents to be of a morbid irritating nature; but whenever the alimentary canal huppens to be loaded w ith irri tating matter, some derangement of the healthy ope ration, either of the genernlsysteib, or cf some partic ular organ<pf the body is the certain result: and when this state happens to he united with any other symptoms of disease its effects are always thereby much aggravated. The progress of organic obstruc tion is often so rapid as scarely to admit of time for the application of such aid as is to be offered by art, yet, in general, the premonitory symptoms of gastric, loud are perceptible for a day or two previous to the feverilh paroxism, aneriod, when the most efficacious assistance may Ik* grven, by unloading the stomach 1 und alimentary rauul of its irritating contents, and thus reducing the susceptibility of disease. MOFFAT’S LIFE MEDICINE’S, oHouMalways be taken in the early stages of billious Compt&intH; and if persevered in strictly according to the direc tions, will positively effect a cure. The mineral medicines often prescribed in these dis eases, although they may effect a temporary cure, nt the same, time create an unhealthy state of the blood, and consequently tend to promote a return ofthe very disease which they arc employed to cure. It is then by the use of purgatives, exclusively formed of vege table compounds, which, possessing within them selves no deleterious agencies, which decomposition, combination, or alteration can dcvelopc or bring into action; and therefore capable4>f producing no effect, save that which is desired-—that a safe remedy is - found. The LIFE PILLS and PHENIX BITTERS ; have proved to Im* the most happy in their effects in j cases of bilious diseases, of any purely vegetable preparation ever offered to the public. If the stomach j is foul, they cleanse it by exciting it to throw of its ! contents; it not, they pass to the duodenum without | exciting vomiting or nausea in the stomach; stimulat- | ing the neighboring viccrn, as the liver and pancras, sons to produce a more copious flow oftheir secretions into the intestines; stimulating theexhnlent capillar- j ies, terminating in the inner coat, which an increased flow ofthe useless particles ofthe body, foreign mat- 1 ters, or retained secretions, arc completely discharge 1 cd.

An Investment of #25,000 US wanted from n company of five gentlemen ($5,000 each,) for the establishment of a cot ton factory, on one ofthe moat eligible situa tions in the (Southern States, for hcaltlr and convenience, in the County of Mclntosh (GeorgmJ'distance from Darien four inilCWOj on a bold salt Creek, lauding direct from the sound of Doboy bar, with a wide and open view of the sea; forming a crescent. Said Creek having a depth of water at a bluff lan ding- (where the location of said factory shall he made,) of at least 14 feet water ; —in the rear also of which is an (ujcollent body of pine timber furnishing the ncccfeary fuel forastenm Engine. In the vicinity are sevcraPsaw mills, front ’ which can be got all the necessary materials, in the progress of the buildings.—The site | also being land locked, offers a safe deposit for lumber. The advantages of such an establish ment in the neighborhood is obvious. The lo cation being a perfectly healthy summer re treat ;-the vicinity immediate to Darien, where the choice and selection of cotton can he made, j or at Macon—with the advantages beside to ; ncigboring planters in giving employment to you nt! female servants who can lie profitably i employed in preparing the raw material, and yarn for market. Investments of this nature, have uniformly resulted profitably and safe in the upper part of this State. The establish ment in view will be the only one known on the whole southern seaboard. The sum of $11,500 being taken up, arty number of gentlemen wish ing toembark here will signify the same, to Mr. Isaac Snow, of Darien, (P. M.) with their views on the subject.

HAVING acquired an envied celebrity as an An ti Dyspeptic, and Anti-Billions remedy, and this reputation being fully sustained by the high charac ter of il3 testimonials, and the constantly increasing demand for the medicine, it is only necessary for the proprietor to continue the caution to the public against mistaking other preparations Which are introduced os Tomato Medicines, for the true Tomato Pills. As ungenerous and in videous allusions to this med icine have been published by the proprietor of a very different preparation, called ‘M iirs’ Extract of Toma to,’ evidently intended to impair the. confidence so long reposed in Phelps’ Tonyuo Pills, it is proper for the proprietor to request the public to investigate the source of these publications before they are indu ced to credit their truth and honesty. An inquiry, for this purpose, made at Brunswick, Ohio,where the proprietor of ‘Miles’ Extract’ resided for a long time and commenced Itis ‘pill career,’ will be sufficient to render harmless these aspersive insin uations. Having no desire to injure ‘Miles’ Extract I would suggest no further inquiry, and am satisfied to risk the Compound Tomato Pills upon their mer its in competition to any preparation purporting to lie Tomato. While the effort to blend other prepa rations to the true Tomato Pills ore continued, per sons wishing the genuine medicine should be partic ular to notice (but they bear the signature of the pro prietor, G.

Fcvrr and A true is a most obstinate disease, and in warm and humid climates, frequently re sists every c” ’ linry mode of cure, so as to become very distressing to the patient; uml by the extreme debility which the disease induces, itolten gives rise to other chronic complaints. Marsh miasmata, or the effiuvin arising from stagnant water, is the most frequciit exciting cause of this disease) and one of its great peculiarities is its Susceptibility of a renew al from very slight causes, such ns from the preva lence of an easterly wind —even without the repeti tion ot \be original exciting cause. In this, Fever and Ague differs from most other fevers; as it is well known,that after an otfilinary fever has once occur red and been removed, the person affected is not so liable ton fresh attack as one who was not so affect ed. These circumstances render ilextrentely difficult to effect a permanent cure of Fever and Ague, though to relieve the patient for the time being is aver v.Knsy task. MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BITTERS have been thoroughly tested, and proved to be a POSITIVE AND RADICAL Cure of Fever and Ague. Hundreds of his fellow-citi zens in the West, have voluntarily come forward to assure Mr. MOFFAT that the LIFE MEDICINS arc the only medicines tjtnt will THORUGHLY ef fect a removal of this most tedious und disagreeable disease. Others who have emigrated to that rich and prom ising portion ofour country —men who went out full of hope, and confident of winning a competence from the luxuriance of the soil; or who carried to tie: out posts of our settlements the mercantile or tnrchanicle experience won in the crowded cities and towns of the older stales, have either returned with shattered constitutions and depressed spirits, or they remain ill their new homes, dragging out a weary life ; nl last to sink under some disease to which they arc predisposed by that terror of the West, the FEVER AND AGUE. Their hopes are blasted—their busi ness energies destroyed —their El Dorado becomes a desert, and the word of promise, made to the ear, Is broken to the hope. To these Individuals, Mr. Moffat would say— “ Try the LIFE MEDICINES, and you will yet an ticipate your most sanguine expectations, for they will certainly restore you to health.” FEVER AND AGUE is a complaint which re quires to be met at its first approach, and combatted nl every stage. Seldom fatal of itself, it reduces the strength, and impares the functions of the organs, so that upon the manifestation of disensc Nature is un able. unassisted, to resist tlie inroads, The. Life Medicines, when tukon strictly according to direc tions will cure it, and give to tlie weak and tremb ling victim ofdisease, new health, life, and strength. For full particulars of the mode of treatment, the render is referred to the Good Samaritan, a copy of which accompanies tlie medicine.
