WISC KLL ANY. Fashing to Good Purpose. Ridirur the other dav in a stire coach, all alone w ith an Irish gentleman, we became quite sociable, he gave me this account of his life: When twenty years of age, I was at school, learning surveying and navigation. 'And do you mean to travel"' said the master. 'What do vou think of America?' said I; for we were then in Dungannon, couuty Tyrone, Ireland. 'America," repeated he, 'America is a growing country; go John, and behave yourself as becomes a true

Irishman, and you may cat white bread in your old age.' At a little more than twenty-one, I sailed, from Cork in the good ship Queen Dido, and landed in fifty seven days at New Castle. I Iiied me up in the city in a trice, aud wandered through the streets. r i i t ... : ,.. T i - ' 1

MOFFATS Life Pifls and Phscaix Bitlfrs. Tlieee Medicines hmnnw boru Wore Am pnU lie for a period of FIFTEEN YEARS. Md during that time have maintained a high character in almost every part of the globe for their extraordinary and immediate power of restoring perfect health to persons suffering under nearly every kind ol disease to which the human frame is liable. in HANY THOUSANDS of certificated instances, they have even rescued sufft-reis from the very verge of an untimely grave, after all the deceptive nostrum of the day bad ut. trrly failed ; and to many thousands they have permanently eecured that uniform enjoyment of health, a-ithout which life itself ia but a partial blessing. So great, iudeed, has their efficacy invariably and infallibly proved, that it has appeared scaicelv ess ihau miraculous to those who were acquainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upoa which they consequently act It was to their mauifrtd and sensible action in purifying the springs and channels of life, and enduing them with re

newed tone and vigor, that they were indebted fcr tiifir tittiiiA. Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries which hnat of vepetulile ingreilients, the LUE 2IEDICIJTES re purely and solely vegetable ; and contain uenher Mercury, nr Antiinony, nor Arsenic, ,lor any other mineral, in any form whatever. 'J'liey are entirely composed of extracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues of which, though lonjj known to several Indian tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are altogether unknown to the ignorant pretenders to medical science ; and were never before administer,.;' iu so happily efficacious a conibiuation. The first operation is to locsen from the coats of the stomach and bowels the various impurities and crudities constantly settling round them ; aud to remove the hardened faeces which collect ia the convolutions of the small intestines. Other medicines onl partially cleanse these, and leavo suoh colbcted masses behind to produce habitual Costiveness, wiili all its train of evils, or sudden Diarrhna with its imminent dangers. This fact is well knovu to all regular anatomists who examine tha human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against the quack medieines nf the aff. The second effi-ct of tha VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES to cleanse the kidneys aud the bladder ; and, bv thai means, the liver and lunis, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of tha urinary orpins. The blood, which takes its red color .'ioiii the agency of the liver aud lungs, belbra it passes iuto the heart, being thus purified by then, and nourished by food coming from a clean stomach, course freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banatr of health in the blooming cheek. The following are among the distressinsv variety of human d seases ill which the VEGETABLE LIFE UEDICESTES are well known to b. iui.Jhb:e: DYSPEPSIA, thoroughly cleansing tha ftm and sei-o.i.i stomachs, aud creating a flew of pur healthy b.!e, instead of the stale and acrid kind ; FLATULENQY, Lots nf Appetite. Heartburn, Hen.lnche, Restlessness, Ill-temper, Aniisty, Languor, and Mcltneho'.y, which are tha general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will vauish, u a natural consequence of its cure. Costiveness, by cleansing tha wU: Uagth tt the intestines with a solvent process, and without violence : ail violent purges leave the bows!i cocivtv within two days. Diarrhoea and Cholera, by removing th sharp acrid tluhls by which aha awraaiaiiiai are occasioned, and by promoting the lubrica.iva seertion of the mucou'" membrane. Fevers kiuda. hv rlorinj lU h!d t a regui.tr circulation, ihronifh the nroeeaa f perspiration in such cases, auit th tnoroiin solution or aM intestinal olitructinn in otheia The I.ifk MrnictNFs have been known tu cure RHEUMATISM permanently ia thr week, mid GllU 1' in half that tuna, by ramaviuj local inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of the joints. Dropsies of ail kinds, by freeing aud strengthening tne kidneys aud bladder: they perat most delightfully on these important orgaus, and hsnr hava ever been found a certain remedy for ah worst esses of GRAVEL. Alaa Worms, by dislodging from tha turnings of the bowels the slimy matter to which ibaa crea'.iiTa adiiere. Afitllir.a nd Conminption, by relieving th a r-veieisoflheltiiiga tioiii theiiiucout which alight colds will occasion, aud which, if nat removed, becomes hardened, and produces the dreadful diseases. Scurvy, TJlcerB, i Inveterate Sores, by llie prf.-et purity which these LIFE MEDICINES live to the blood, aud all the humors. . Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, by their alterative effect upou the tiuida that feed the skin, and the morbid state of which occasions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and othr disagreeable complexions. The use of these Pills for a verv short time will effect an entire cure of SALT RHEUM, aad striking improvement in the clearness of tk skin. COMMON COLDS and INFLUENZA wtll always be cured by one dose, or by two even ia the worst cases. 1 PILES. As a remedy for Ih-s most distressine and nbsiinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES deserve a distinct and emphatic recommendation. It is well known to hundreds in this city, that the former proprietor of these valuable Medicines was himself afflicted with thif , complaint for upwards of tiiirtt rivi tirs ; aad that he tried in vain every remedy prescribi within the whole compass of the Materia Medic lie however at length tried the Medicine which is now offered to the public, and he was cured in very short time, after his recovery had been pronounced not only impiobable, but absolutely impossible, bv anv human means. FEVER AND AGUE For this scourge of the western country thass Medicines will be found a safe, speedy, and caruia remedy. Other medicines leave the system subject to a return of the disease a cure by thes medicines is permanent TRV TIIE.M, BE SATISFIED, AND BE CURED. Billons Fevers and Liver Complaints. General Debility, Los or Am-m-, an Diseases or tic malls these medicines hav bee a I used with the most beneficial results iu cases f this j description : Kino's Evil, and Scrofi'La, in its worst forms, yields to the mild yet powerful action ot these remarkable Medicines. Night Sweats, ( Ncrvoi-s Debilitt, Nervous Co m pla WTt of all kinds, Palpitation or tub IIcart, Paihtia's I Colic, are speedily cured. MERCURIAL DISEASES. Persons whose constitutions have becom hn1 paired by the injudicious use of Merclrt, will find these Medicines a perfect care, as they never fail to eradicate from the system all the effects el Mercury infinitely sooner than the most powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla. A single trial will place them beyond the reach of competition, ia th estimation of every patient. BE CAREFUL OF COUNTERFEITS.
