THESE Pills are no ionger among those of doubtful utility. They have parsed awiy from the hundreds that are daily launched upon "the tide of expert meat," and now stand before the public higher in reputation, and more extensive ly employed in all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, than any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suflenng man. I hey have been introdu ced wherever it was found possible to car ry them; and there are but few tovyns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates that have been presented to the proprietor exceed twenty thousand, upwards of five hundred of which are Irom regular practi sing physicians who are the mostcompe tent judges of their merits. Otten have the cures performed by this medicine been the subject of editorial comment in various newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asser ted, that no medicine of the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value than are attached to this. They are in - general use as a family medicine; and there are thousands ol lam dies who declare they have a supply al ways on hand. They have no rival in curing and pre venting Bilious Fevers, t ever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Head ache, jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheu matism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Colic, Female Obstructions, Heart burn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Disten sion of the Stomach and bowels, Incipi ent Diarrhoea, Flatulence, Habitual Cos tiveness, Loss of Appetite, blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in all cases ol torpor of the bowels, where a cathartic or aperient is needed. They are exceed ingly mild in their operation, producing neither nansea, griping, nor debility. The Pills are put up intin boxes, price 50 cents per box. From Dr. Eli Todd, late president of the Medical Society of Connecticut, and Principal of the Insane Hospital al Hartford, dated Sept. S, 1S2S. My personal acquaintance with Dr. Joseph Priestly Peters, together with the very favorable impression of his talents & his character, derived from his friends, have satisfied me that he is well enti tled to the medical honors he received t Yale College, and that the public may safely confide in his integrity and skill in the exercise of his profession. FEVER AND AGUE. Augusta, Ga., Feb. 10, 1839. To Dr. Peters. Sir For upwards of 15 months 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague,and during that time could find nothing (tho' I had applied to every thing) that gave me any thinglike permanent reliel. At length, 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 had scarcely used two boxes when I found that they had restored me to per fect 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 you to publish this certificate, as I am anx ious to add my public testimony to the almost miraculous virtues of your unrival led medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. The above Vegetable Pills are for sale at the Post Office and Printing Office in Tarboro'. April 1, 1840.

MOFFAT'S Vegetable JLife Medicines. npHESE medicines are indebted for their name to their manifest and sensible action in purifying the springs and channels of life, and enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hun dreds of certified cases which have been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT'S Life Pills & Phenix Bitters, Have been gratefully and publicly ac nowledged by the persons benefitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles up on which they are compounded, aud up on which they consequently act. The JAfe Jflcdieincs Recommend themselves in diseases of every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various im purities and crudities constantly settling around them, and to remove the hardened ffeces which collect in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to pro duce habitual costiveuess, widi all its train of evils, or sudden diarrhoea, with its imminent dangers. This fact is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death: and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against quack medicines or me dicines prepared and heralded to the pub lic by ignorant persons. The second effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver &t the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depeuds upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heart, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely thro' 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 tested, and pro nounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspep sia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn and Head ache, Restlessness, Ill-temper, Anxiety. Languor and Melancholy, Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kinds, Gravel, worms, Asthma and Consumption, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scar butic Eruptions, and bad complexions, Eruptive complaints, Sallow, dowdy, and other disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, common Colds and Influenza, and various other com plaints which afflict the human frame. In FEVER AND AGUE, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so thai in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his pa tients is, to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the direc tions. It is not by a newspaper notice, nr by any thing that he himself mav say in uicir iavor,inai he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the results of a fair trial. MoflHt's Medical Manual, Designed as a domestic guide to health. This little pamphlet, edited bv VV. B. Moffat, 375 Broadway, New York, has been published for the explaining more fully Mr. Moffat's theory of diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons seeking health.

Tomato and Slippery JElm r EM HERE are many family medicines now before the public, some of which, from their intrinsic virtues have justly gained the confidence and gratitude of thousands; but in the light of contrast, and in the scale of curative merit, Dr. Harrell's Tomato and Slippery Elm Pills stand pre-eminently above them all; nor is any apology offered for taking this high ground, unless it is the fact of their supe perior, and almost miraculous effects in the cure of diseases. They produce, when ta ken, a deep and lasting impression that they stand at the head of all other prepar ed medicines of the day. Fevers, Liver affection?, Jaundice, head-ache, loss of appetite, costiveness, female complaints, and every disease within the reach of hu man means; yield readily to the power ful, yet gentle operation of these pills. As a cathartic tby are copious and free, as an aperient they are mild and certain, asatonictheyare prompt and invigorating, as an alterative they are superior to Calo mel or any other known remedy, and as a purifyer of the blood they are unequalled in the history of medicines. There is no disease can withstand their life-giving en ergy when taken in time, or interrupt the system at all when they are administered as a preventative. During sickly sea sons, and the prevalence of epidemicks, their occasional use will preserve the body from attacks of disease. 50 cents per box. $54 per gross.
