PETERS’ PILLS.
THESE Pills are no longer among those of doubtful util
ity. They have passed away from the hundreds that
uro daily launched upon .he tide of experiment, and now
stand before the public as hi.;h in reputation, and as exten
sively employed in all parts of the United Slates, tite Canadas,
Texas. Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that
has ever been prepared for the relief of sufl’ering man. They
have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry
them; and thoreare but few towns that do not contain some
remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates
that have beer presented to the proprietor exceed twenty
thousand ! upwards of five hundred of which arc from reg
ular practising physicians, who aro tho 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 medicine
of the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value
than aro attached to this.
They are in general use a* a family medicine and there
aro thousand* of families who declare they are never satis
fied until they have a supply always on hand.
They have bo rival in caring and preventing Billious Fe
vers, Feverand Ague. Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick
Headache, Jaundice Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, En
largement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholie. Female obstructions,
Heartburn. Furred Tongue, Nausea. Distension of the Stom
ach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhtsa. Flatulence, Habitual
Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or sallow Complex
ion, and in rases of torpor of the bowels, whete a cathartic or
aperient is needed. They are exceedingly tnild in their op
eration, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility.
tXom Dr. Eli Todd, late President of the Medical
Society, of Connecticut,, and Principal of the in
sane Hospital, at Hartford, dated September 8,
1828.
MY personal acquaintance with Dr. Joseph Priestly Pe
ters, together with the very favorable impression of his
talents and his character, derived from his friends, have sat
isfied me that he is well entitled to the medical honors he re
ceived at Yale College, and that the public may safely con
fide in his integrity and skill, in the exercise of his profession.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly
respectable Planter of Wake County, N. Ca., March 3d
1838.
Dr. Peters—Dear Sir.—By request of your agent, Mr.
Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost mi
racufous effects of your pills; and I would add, that you
may make use of them, in connection with iny name, in any
manner you th em proper. I speak of their merits from ex
perience, as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty
boxes in three years; and so great are the benefits we
have received from them in general, that I would rather pur
chase them at ten dollar* a box than have rny house without
them. I will not enumerate the afflictions thej have reliev
ed us of; hut I can assure you they were many, and of very
opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your
medicine i* a simple purifier of the system, and therefore
equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case.
I have a sister who had been for a long period severely a(
dieted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the
verge of the grave She was attended by the most eminent
physicians that money could procure; but all their efforts to
restore her to health, or even to mitigate her sufferings wete
fruitless ; and accordingly, we all considered her immediate
death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was
m this situation, expectin', every day to be her last, your
pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal
pable were their effects that three doses visibly relieved her,
and in less than three months she was perfectly restored ta
health. The case I anti all who w ere witness of it, but (more
especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing
to miraculous; and yet I could mention many more of an
equally desperate nature, in which your pills were equally suc
cessful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need
I add that the popularity of your medicine amounts to enthu
siasm in this section of tho country? But this 1 presume
you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 may
mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I
never heard an individual complain of its effects. My resi
dence is 12 miles from Raleigh, on the road to Fayetteville.
I am with seutimeuts of regard, your ob’t servant.
A. g. banks.
To Dr. Peters,—Sir —for upwards of fifteen months, I have
been cruelly afflicted with Fever anil Ague; and during th*
time could find nothing—though I had applied to every
thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At
length, however, your pills’were recommended to me, by one
of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in
being able to add, that I had scarcely used two boxes when I
found that they had restored me to perfect health Since then,
various members of my family have used them with equal
success—and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you
of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate,
as I am anxious t* add my public testimony to the almost
miraculous virtues of your unrivalled medicine.
THEODORE JAMES.
Augusta, Ga. Feb. 10, 1839.
Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. IL Ir
win of Florence, Georg a:
Dr. J. P. Peters—My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th
inst , I wa* called in great haste to the house of a fellow cit
izen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found h : s son laboring under a most
alarming attack of t'ynauche Tracnealis (Ciotip) and appa
rently beyond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for
tune. however, I had in my pockets a broken box of your
pills—four of which I administered, with such immediate
happy effect that iu a few minutes my patient was at ease,
aud out of danger. Thi* case, in connection with my name
is at your service— a nd I have the pleasure to inform you that
your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the fac
ulty here, that I believe there is not one of them who does
not use it in his private practice.
Yours most respectfully,
March 13, 1839. J. 11. IRWIN,M- D.
Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bogart, of
Providence, R. I , Dec 17, 1838.—Peters’ Pills are an ex
cellent aperient and cathartic medicine.those effect* being pro
duced by the differences of the quantity taken, and are deci
dedly superior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.
Extract from a letter written by Dr. Hopson of Bangor,
Maine, Jan. 9, 1839 They are a peculiarly mild ye>efficient
pt rgative medicine, and produce little, if any. griping or
naseau. I have prescribed them with such success in sick
headache and slight billions fever.
Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of Burlington,
Vt . July 9. 1837.—1 cordially recommend Peters’ Pills as a
mildly effective, and in no case dangerous, family medicine
They are peculiarly influential in costiveuess and all the usu
al diseases of the digestive organs.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Edw. Smith of Montreal,|U.
C., Sept- 27, 1836,—1 never knew a single patent medicine
that I could put the least confidence in but Dr. Peters’Ve
getable Pills, which are really a valuable discovery. I have
no hesitation in having it known that I use them extensively
in my practice, for all complaints, (and they are nst a few)
which have their source io the impurity of the blood.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Dye of Quebec L. C., March
6. 1837.—F0r billious fevers, sick headache, torpidity of the
bowels, and enlargement of the spleen, Dr. Peters’ Pills are
an excellent medicine.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Gurney ofNew Orleans, La.,
Oct. 9. 1837. 1 have received much assistance in my prac.
ii ce —especially in jaundice and yellow fever, from the use of
Peters’ Pills. I presume that on au average, I prescribe 100
boxes in a month.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson, N. Y.,
June 3, 1836.—1 was aware that Dr. Peters was one of the
best chemists in tho United States, and felt assured that be
would someday (from his intimate knowledge of the proper
ties of herbs anti dings) produce an efficient medicine, and
I must acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond to
my expectations. They are indeed asnperior medicine, and
reflect credit alike upon the Chemist, tho Physician nnd the
Philosopher.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Waines of Cincinnati, Feb.
2, 1838—Your Pills are the mildest in their operations, and
yet most powerful in their effects, of any that I have ever
met with in a practice of eight and twenty years. Their ac
tion on the chyle, and hetice t on the impurities of blood, is ev
idently very surprising.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Scott of Baltimore, Dec. 17.
1836.-1 am in the daily habit of prescribing them. (Peters’
Pills) and they in nearly all cases answered my purpose. I
have discarded other medicines, some of them very good ones,
in their favor.
Charlotte, N. C., Jan. 1, 1837..
Dear Sir—l have made frequent use of your Pills iu
the incipient stage of billions fever, and obstinate constipa
tion of the bowels; also, in the enlargement of the spleen,
chionic diseases of the liver, sick headache, general debility,
and iu all cases have found them to be very effective.
J. D. BOYD, M. D.
Mecklengburs Co. Va., Feb. 7, 1837
Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills iu my practice for the
last twelve months, 1 take pleasure in giving my testimony
of their good effects in cases of dyspepsia, sick head-ache,
billions fevers, and other diseases, produced by inactivity of
the liver. They are a safe and mild aperient, being the best
article of the kind I have ever used.

County, Georgia.
This town is situate on a gently undulating piece of ground
in the enchanting valley of Chattooga River, on its western
bank, having Taylor’* extensive ridge of mountains, in beau
tiful prospect to to the East, and lofty spurs of the Lookout
mountain to the West. Immediately at the northwest end of
the Town, is a beautifnl blue limestone spring, issuing several
hogsheads of the most limpid water per minute, and upon
the northeastern part of the town, severalotber fountains are
to be found, which have never ceased io issue pure and limpid
water. Here the dyspeptic who has found nostrum* and learn
ed doctors' means ineffectual, may come in the certainty of
the use of these waters, and inhaling th* atmosphere of the
most healthful section of country upon our Globe, radi
cally healing his impaired digestive organ*. We w ould,
therefore, especially invite the dyspeptic, and all those who
desire to keep free front this fashionable disease, to come
and purchase lots or farms in thevicinity. The lots are ad
mirably sized and shaped, for merchants’stores and dwellings,
mechanic’s workshops, their dwellings and gardens, the
horticulturist, and last not least the silk culturist. Here the
merchant may vend a reasonable amount of goods, at fair
profits; th* house joiner, the brick and stone mason, the car
riage maker, the black and white smith, the watchmaker
anil the tailor, may get profitable employment, iu their res
pective line of business.
A seminary of high order, for the education of females, is
about being established in the vicinity of this placp, and the
earliest attention will be given to the establishment of a male*
academy.
We regret the inadequacy of our humble pen to deilfribe na
ture’s best effort for the grandeur of scenery of the sm«ouud
ing country of this enchanting spot; it would take tho pen of
a Cooper, ora Symmes, to do justice to the subject.
Cotton, small grain, and silk, will b* the staples of this
country, and believe him not, who will tell you, that the Geor
gia mountain valleys will not produce as much cotton, pet
acre, as the best lands in Morgan, Green, Jefferson or Burke
counties.
The terms of sale will be one-fifth c*h, the residue in
equal instalments at six, twelve, eighteen and twenty-four
months. Purchasers giving their notes, which, on being paid,
