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 proprie tor exceed twenty thousand ! upwards of five hun dred ot v\ Inch are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicine been the subject of editorial comment in various newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth be asserted, that no mo heine of the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value than are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine, and there are thousands of families who declare they are never satisfied unless they have a supply always on hand. They have no rival in curing and preventing Bilious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles,.Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Fur red Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhce, Flatulence, Habit ual Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Compiexun, and in ail cases of Torpor of the Bowels, where a cathartic or an aperient is needed. They are exceedingly miici in their opera tion, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility. The efficacy ol these pills is so well known, and their use so general, that further comment is con sidered unnecessary.

MOFFAT’S VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES i FiIHESE medicines arc indebted for tneir nnirn 1 JL to thi ir manifest and sensible action in puri lying the spring and channels ot life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In rnanv hun dred certified cases which has been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE FILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac knowledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and descripiion. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities comtantly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened fames which collect i convolustons ot the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitu al costiveness with nil its train ofevii- . or in a sud den diarrhtra, w ith its eminent dangers. This fact is well known to ail regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of those well informed men against quack lueCii mes—or medicines prepared and her laded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. The se cond effect of the Lite 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 ofthe urinary organs. The blood, w hich takes its red color from the agency ol the liver and the lungs before it passes into Ihe heait, being funs purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses treel} - thiough the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lite Medicines have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign | remedy fur Dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ol ( the Heart, Lossot Appetite, Heart-bora and Head- I ache, Restlessness, 111-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosliveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds.

In fever and ague, particularly, the Life IVledicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the j Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. Ail that Mr. 31offat requires of his patient is | to be particular in taking the Life Medicines srnctly | according to the directions. It is not by a news paper notice, or any thffig that he himself may say ; m their favor, 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 VV.

It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing eompaint is every day | gaining is certainly a matter ofimuch astonishment, ! That so much suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, 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 which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a. mitted fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that lb"* eys- j tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of the natural and healthy functions of the system. This object, Dr Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact. The remedy may he had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States.

In every instance that has come to the knowledge of the proprietors, it has proved itseli to be what it is recommended —a pleasant, safe, and efficacious remedy for all the sympathetic affections attendant on Pregnancy, and all those periodical disorders to which both married and unmarried females are liable. Delicacy forbids giving the details of its merits in a news paper advertisement, but it may be stated that it has been in use under various names —(The Philo token, Mother’s Relief, fyc..) for some ten years past, and wherever introduced, the demand for it, (without the aid of “ puffing,”) has been constant ly on the increase. This fact in evidence of its real virtues, together with the belief that hundreds of females are suffering from want of the know ledge of a remedy adapted to their cases, induces the proprietors respectfully to call the attention of sufferers to their pamphlets, which accompany each bottle, and which may be had gratis of anj of their agents.

OSBORN, dec 12 » It Cl ACTION.—I do hereby forbid any person and j all manner of persons whatsoever, from buy ! ing the lands whereon Samuel G. Brown now lives, : in Burke county, it being in two tracts or parcels | of land apart, lyini in Burke and Jefferson coun- | lies, both sides of Briar Creek, as I bought said j lands cf said Brown, on the 29th day of March, I 1839, received his receipt for S3BO, and have made i him three other payments ; and said Samuel G. | Brown now refuses to deliver said lands. Said i i Brown on the onset, practised fraud upon me by false statements, as respects the two tracts and a i land warrant, as said Samuel G. Brown had ob- ( 1 tained from a land court and located on said lands ! j of his and others, m iking out he was entitled to a j large quantity of vacant lands adjoining, that i would have added trebble to the value of said lands, giving the purchaser at least three first rate Mill j ; seats with abundance of water, and offered a lump ing sale. I made the purchase, and paid nearly all the first payments, when to my great astonishment, j found he was claiming a part of Mr. Wrn. Bryant’s j land as vacant, a part of Mr. Bradshaw’s, all of Mr. Holley’s land. I do not believe there is one j square inch of land vacant. I forewarn all persons from buying said lands, or trusting him on acount of having said lands in possession, as I shall claim said lands from the 2Sth day of March, 1839. I j shall file my bill in Equity, for the Court to make ; me titles, and also sue him for damages 1 have j sustained. He has told many persons that I should , i not have the land, that he would give me my I j money up. If any persons trust him, they must look for other resources, not my lands. Given under mv hand, this 9th December, 1840. dec 12-w3l ‘ LEWIS BYNE.
