He is still at Cufhbert, Randolph county, prepared to attend to the business of his profession, where he will at all times be found, if not absent on business of a professional character. He would ask of the public a share of their business in this quarter of the Stale, if it was not for this—he does not want to do business for any person unless they believe he will do them justice in every sense of the term.

Whilst the strength of many r other extracts and essences is almost as eva nescent as the bloom of the flowers from which they are derived, the Hermitage retains its fra grance for an indefinite length of time, and is scarce to be removed from the garment on which it is poured, by washing; hence it is probably the cheapest and most delightful perfume of our labora tories.

MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE M EDICIN’EB. f medicines are indebted for their name 1. to ihi ir manifest and sensible action in pnri lying the spring and channels of life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which tire human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AM) PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac fnowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with tbe beau'itully philosophical principles upon which they are compounled, and upon which they eonsequently ■ act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ol every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the cofits ot the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities con tanlly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened faeces which collect in the conversions of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected mosses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with i ll its train ofevils, or in a sud den diarrhoea, with its eminent dangers. This lact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death; and hen-e the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her alded to the public bv ignorant p« rsong. Ihe se cond effect of the Lile Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, w hich lakes its red color from ihe agency of *the liver and the lungs before it pas>es into tbe hea t, being thus purified by them and nourished by Ibod coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy lor Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump tion, Scurvj, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruplions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysi|«ias, Common Colds and influenza and various other complaints which afflict the human frame, in fever and ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been mustemmently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe ihern. All lhal 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 thing that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the result of a fair trial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by W . B. Moffat 375 Broadway New York, has been published lor the purpose of explaining mure fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and w ill lie found highly interesting to persons seeking health.
