From Dr. Eli Todd, late President of the Medical
Society, of Connecticut, and Principal of t!>e In

1623.
MY personal acquaintance with Dr. Joseph Piiestly Pe
ters, together with the very favorablo impression of his
talents and his character, derived from his friends, have sat
isfied me that he is well entitled to the medical honors be re
ceived nt Yale College, and that the public may safely con
fide in his integrity an ! 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
racuious effects of your pills; and 1 would add, that you
m iy. make use of them, in connection w ith my name, in any
mariner y. u deem proper. 1 speak of their merits from ex
peiieuce, as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty
boxes in three ycais; and so great are the benefits we
have received from them in general, th t I would rather pur
chas them at ten dollars a box than have my house without
them. I will not enumerate the afflictions tlrey 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 is u simple purifier of die system, and therefore
equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case.
1 have a sister who had been for a long period severely af
flicted 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
ftuitless ; and accordingly, we all considered her immediate
death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was
in this situation, expecting 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 liei.
and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to
health. The case, I and all who were 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 sue
ce .slul i» rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need
1 add that the popularity of your medicine amounts to etitlltl
siasm in this section of the country ! But this I presume
you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 mat
mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, 1
never heard an individual complain of its effects. My resi
dence is 12 miles from Raleigh on the road to Fayetteville.
I am with sentiments of regard, your ob't servant.

To Dr. P-'ters,—Sir-—for upwards of fifteen mouths. I have
been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the
time could find .nothing—though I had applied to evert
tiling that gave me any thing like permanent relief. Al
leiigt ', however, your pills were recommended to me, by one
of our best physicians, and I am most grateful and happy in
being able to add, that I bad scarcely u <d 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 1 feel it my duly to apprise you
« f the fact, and to request of yon to publish this certificate. ,
as I am anxious to add my p dilic testimony to the almost
miraculous virtues of your unrivalled medicine.

Dr. J. P. Peters—My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th

tune, however, I had in my pockets a broken box of yom
pills—four of which I administered, with such immediate
happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease,
and out of danger. This case, in <:■ nnection with my name
is at your service—and 1 have the pleasure to inform you that
your inestimable medicine is in such great lavor w ith the fac

not use it in bis private practice.

Prepared by €'. E. EiAi'NES, 81. D.
SPARTA, GEORGIA.
OX’ offering these Pills to the public, it is not deemed obtru
give or impertinent to give a brief history of the circum
stances which led to their original preparation, in December,
1828. Dr. IL took i is seat in Congress as a Representative
from Georgia, w bile laboring under protracted billious disease,
the consequence of a severe attack ol lever tn the course ol
the previous autumn. 1 laving exhausted the usual remedies
without relief, ho determined to try the effect of combining a
number of well know n medicines, w ith the separate action of
each uc had been familiarly acquainted in his professional
course of more than twenty years. These medicines so com
bined, compose his ANTI-DYSPEPTIC AND ANTI
- PILLS, lie proceed dto take, as directed for
I dyspepsia and other chronic diseases requiring action on the
I bowels, one pill at bed lime, w hich he continued to repeat
nightly for about a week, at which time he was as free from
billious disease as if he had never been afflicted w ith it. On
his return to Georgia in the spring of 1529, in consequence of
the signal benefit he hail derived from the pills lu.- prescribed
them for bis brother, who had been laboring under dyspepsia
and liver complaint from the autumn of 1823, in consequence
of a severe and protracted attack of billious fever. 11 is health
began immediately to improve, and has been restored by them
in the maauer stated in Ins certificate. The pills were pre
scribed to others laboring under chronic billious affections,
upon the confidence inspired by their success in the foregoing
cases, until those cases became so numerous, that applications
weie annually made to Dr. II from 1835 to 1838 inclusive,
when about to depart for Washington, for from twenty to fifty
dozen as a supply during his absence, by persons who
had tested their virtues (So iar. no serious thought
was entertained of offering them to the public at large, as the
supply had been limited to the range of his private practice.
Nor did Dr. IL consent to prepare ami offer them for general
use. until two or three years after he had been urged todoso,
by tho->e who had been signally benefited by them. When
first used by himself, he supposed their application would be
confined to eases of chronic billions disease, and it was not un
til titter more than ten years experience of their use in many
of the varieties of chronic, and some of the more violent acute
febrile diseases, that he became convinced, as he now is. that
they possess greater merit in all cases requiring either mild or
vigorous action upon the bowels, than tiny other known rem
edy. As an alterative or mild aperient, they answer most ef
fectively, the indication stated by Dr. James Johnson in his
admirable w ot k on the morbid irritability of the stomach and
b w'els, by producing usually "but one evacuation daily, and
that via solid, rather than a liquid consistence.” Norisit
difficult to account for theirnioi/us optrandi. Merc evacuauts
operate by stimulating the mucous membrane of the stomach
ami bowels, without affecting the organs essential to healthy
digestion, and although they procure temporary relief, the dis
eased secretions grow worse instead of better. These pills
combine the most gentle action upon the mucous coat with
an efficient and healthy influence upon the liver and other or
gans of the digestive apparatus, and, consequently operate in
the mildest maimer, and not only give preseutrelief, but when
steadily persevered in. a permanent cure.
Not are they less efltcii nt in feverand other acute diseases
requiring active purgation, by increasing the dose as directed,
causing the double operation of more vigorous action on the
bow els, and proporUouably stimulating the liver and otherur
gans to more healthy secretions, justify iug the confident opin
ion. not only entertained by the inventor, but by many who
have used them, that they approach more nearly to the char
acter of a universal remedy in the cases indicated, than any
oilier known medicine
It is not deemed necessary to specify the various disorders
for the relief of which they aro applicable, but tho following
are enumerated as some of them: Dyspepsia, sick head ache,
liver complaint, asthma, habitual or casual costiveuess, Diar
- hcji. heart-burn, cholic, sour stomach, billious fever, female
obstructions. &.C., &c- In short, in every disease requiring
action <m the bowels. Nor is it the smallest recommendation,
that in dyspepsia, liver oomplaints, and otherchronic diseases,
a single pill is. generally, a sufficient dose. They are pecu
liarly adapted to the conditio:! of all persons of sedentary ha
bits, either male or female, who with scatccly a solitary ex
ception, suffer from a sluggish state of the bowels. They are
also reeommemted as particularly convenient to the traveller
in warm climates, or seasons, mid for the use of large fami
lies, the dose being so easily adjusted, especially it hen resi
diii" at a distance from the experienced phjsician.
The inventor asks his liis own fellow citizens to give the
pills'a fair trial—pledging himself if they will do so. that they
will not fail tn obtain the confidence, and pre/erence of ninety
nine out of a hundred, oi nine hundred ami ninety-nine out
of a thousand. As mt alterative, or mild aperient, for correct
ing habitual or casual lorpi Jity of the bowels, one pill taken
nt bed tim ? is the proper dose, without the necessity of chan ■
ging ordmat j habits of living If one should fail to produce
the desired i lli-ct. it is better to repeat itl'or two or three suc
cessive nighl-j, than t<> aid its operation by taking any thing
else.
Fot hi 'ious fever, or other acute disease requiting active
purgmt' a. sin- pill repeated every hour or two. until the de
sired o- I ct I. produced, is ike best mode of administering them
The sol.j.fim.d certificates sufficiently attest the efficacy of
these j.ills.

be the best remedy, that I have ever yet tried, for Dyspepsia

Dr. C. E. Haynes:—Dear Sir—My attention was direct
ed to your Fills a little more than a year since, by Col. Shiv
ers. Since that time, I have frequently taken them myself,
and given them to my familv with the most happy results.
With me they have removed costiveuess, checked effectu
ally diart hea, ami taken off bile as fully as calomel, without
producing the unpleasant effect that is uslially produced by
that valuable medicine. I therefore believe them a valuable
medicine, and would recommend a trial of them, at least.

inordinary diseases of the stomach and bowels, with the hap
piest effects; and recently, in a sharp intermittent bilious fe

recommend them as admirably adapted to the cure of dys
peptic and bilious diseases. wm McMurray.

Dr. C. E. Haynes; Sir—For several yeais past, 1 have
been afflicted with obstinate costiveness of lhe bowels, often
going from six to ten days without any discharge from them.
For several months, I used Dr. Peters’ pills, ami found them
useful to me. Early last Spring I was induced to try your
Anti-dyspeptic Pills, which I have continued to use as occa
sion required, and have derived more benefit from them than
from any other medicine 1 have ever taken.
The operation is more easy, and the effect more permanent
than from any other medicine I have herctcfire used, and 1
give them a decided preference to any othei remedy.

Dr. Haynes; I have been selling Peters’ Pills for the las

myself. (I believe them to be a good medicine ) Some 12
or 15 days past, 1 had strong symptoms of billious fever. J
took some of Peters’ Pills, and not receiving any benefit from
them, I procured a box of you 1 ’ pills, and am happy to say
that they in a few days removed all symptoms of approach
ing sickness. I conceive them to be an invaluable medicine.

Dr. Haynes, Sir: I take great,.pleasure in adding my tes
timonial to those you have already received, to the value of
your anti-dyspeptic and anti-bi'lious pills.
At your instance, 1 commenced using them in my family
about six years ago, and found them more uniformly effica
cious than tmy other remedy 1 have ever given. Especially
in a recent case of menstrua! obstruction of long standing,
ineffectually treated by several distinguished ' physicians,
w hich was entirely relieved in a very few days, by the use of
your pills.
More recently still, I have given them in the early stage of
billious fever, with entire success.
Your friend, ' ALFRED M. HORTON.
Milledgeville, 25th July, 1839
Dr. C. E. Haynes; I have been hitherto induced by feel
ings of delicacy alone, to withhold from the public, the expres
sion of my opinion in regard to the merits of your Anti-Dys
peptic and Uiti-Billious Pills; but the numerous testimonials
which you have received from respectable and intelligent cit
izens, of their value in lhe cure of diseases for which they
were intended, w ill, I think, justify me in now adding my own,
having experienced their benefits fora longer period than any
other individual, yourself only excepted.
In the spring of 1829, aftei having been afflicted from the
autumn of 1823 with dyspepsia, liver complaint, heart-burn,
and occasional severe attacks of cramp cholic. I was induced
at your instance, to use a pill which you had prepared at
Washington City, in the winter of 1828. I had not taken
them a week, before their good eflects were so apparent as
to induce their continuance, and at lhe end of a month, I
found my system greatly relieved, and by their occasional
use. for a few months, was restored to an excellent state of
health, w hich I have ever since enjoyed in a very high degree.
1 have used them with great effect in my own family, in
cases of billious fever, dyspepsia and cholic, and confidently
recommend them as an invaluable remedy.
T. HAYNES.
Milledgeville, 30th July, 1839.
Dr. Charles E. Haynes : About ten or twelve months since.
I w as induced by your brother to make a trial of your Anti-
Dyspeptic and Anli-Billious Pills, in a severe billious attack,
and found them most efficient hi removing the disease.
I have used them with great success, in several similar at
tacks since, as w ell as for cholic and disorders of the stomach
and bowels.
They have also been administered to several members of
my family, with like results, and particularly in a case of bil
lions fever, in die early part of the present season.
From the very fair trihl w hich I have made of these pills,
and the signal benefits which my family and myself have de
rived from them. I am fully warranted in recommending them
as a medicine of inestimable value; ami confidently predict,
that they have only to be tried, to find great favor with the
public. JESSE COX
