IjtEVEK. AND AGUE 'POSITIVELY CURED — . Fever and Ague is a most obHinatediscare, and in warm and humid climates, frequcntljr resist* every ordinary mode of cure, id asto become very distressing to the patient ;aud by the extreme debility which the disease induces, it often gives rise to other chi onto complaint*. ' .Marsh miasmata, or the effluvia artsing from stagnant water, tv the - most fn-quco) exciting cause of this disease ; aud one of it* great peculiarities is its susceptibility of a renewal from very slight cause*,- such us from tbo prcvalcnceof an easterly wind—even without the icpetiilon of the original exciting cause. In this. Fever and Ague differ* trOm most other fevers; as it is well known, that after an ordinary fever has once occurred, und been removed, the person affected is not so liable to a ftesh attack as one who was not so affected. These circumstances render it extremely difficult to effect a' permanent cure of Fever and Ague, though to relieve the patient for the lime beingU u very easy task. Jlomt’s Lint Fills a,\o Pucxtx Ritters have been thoroughly , tested, and proved to be a rosivivi and radical cuxt of Fever aud Ague, Hundreds of his fellow-citizens in the West, have voluntarily come forward to assuro Mr. MOFFAT ihut the LIFE MEDICINES arc the only medicines that wiIItiiorouuiilv effect a removal of this must tedious and disagreeable disease. Olliers who' have emigrated to that rich and promiing portion uf ourcooutry—men who went out iiillcfhu(ic, and confident of winning a competence from the luxuriance of the soil; or who carried to the out posts uf our settlement* the mercantile or mechanical experience wou in the crowded cilia* aud town* of the older states, have either returned with shattered constitutions and depressed spirits, at they remain in their uew homes, dragging out a weary life; at lust to sink, under some disease to w hiefa they arc predisposed that terror of the West, the FEVEH AND AGUE.. ‘1 heir, hopes are blasted—their business energies destroyed—their El Dorado becomes a desert, and tbeword of promise, made to the car, is broken to tho hope. To these individuals, Mr, Moffat would *ay—“Try the LIFE MEDICINES, and you will yet anticipate your most sanguine expectations; for they will certainly rmtoreyou Id-health.” • - FEVEK and AGUE is a complaint which requires to be met at its first approach, und combatted at every stage, Seldom fatal to itself, it reduces the strength, nod impairs the fiintions of the organs, so that upon the mnuifeitatloo pi disease Nature is unable, unassisted, to resist (he inroad.

Moffat’s Vegetable life pills &. PilENlX BITTERS.—Tise cxiTtuit estiuin which Iho celebrated Life Pills and Phenix Outers arc held,-is satisfactorily demonstrated by the increasingdemand far them in every.Stale nurl lectiuu of the Union; and by, the voluntary testimonials totheir remarkable efficacy which are every where of* fered. If is hot less from a deeply gratifying chaddence.lhat they arc the means of extensive and inestimable good among his afflicted : fellow creatures, than from interested considerations, that Urn proprietor oi these pre-eminently successful medicines is desirous of keeping them constantly before the public eye.' The salco! every additional boi aml bottle is n guarantee that some persons will be relieved from a greater or less degree of suffering, and be improved in general health; for in no case of-suffering from disease can they be taken iit vaiu. The proprietor has never known or been informed of an iustnnceiw whicblbcy have failed id do good. In Ibe most obstinate cases of chrohie disease, such as , chronic dyspepsia, torpid Jivcc, rheumatism, asthma, nervous and billions bead ache, costiveness, piles, general debility, scrofulous swellings and ulcers, scurvy, salt rheum and all other chronic affections of the organs and membranes, they effect cures with a rapidity and permanency which few persons would theoretically believe, but to which thousands have testified from happy expciidice, in colds anti coughs, which, if neglected, superinduce Iho most fatal diseases of Ibe lungs, and indeed the vicera in general, these medicines, if taken hut for three or four days, never fail. Taken at night, they promote the insensible perspiration, and so relieve the system of febrile action and feculent obstructions, as to produce a most delightful sense of convalesce in the morning; and (bough the usual symptoms of u cold should partially return during the day, the repetition of a suitable dose at the next hour of bed-time will almost invariably effect permanent relief, without further aid. ' Their cdcct upon fevers of a more acute nod violent kind is not Jess sure and speedy iftakca in proportionable Quantity; and persons retiring to bed with infiammatori 1 -symptoms of the most alarming kind, will awake with the gratifying consciousness that the fierce enemy bat been overthrown, and can easily be subdued. In the came way, visceral turgesence, though long established', and visceral indamalions, however critical, former .to small and latter to large doses of the Lira Pius; and to also hysterical affections, by pocobdriociim, restlessness, and very many other varieties of the Nc6roticaI class of diseases ,' yield to the effioaev of the PI1EN1X BITTERS. Full directions for the use of these medicines, and showing their distinctive applicability to different complaints, * accompany them; and they can be obtained wholesale and retail, at 375 Broadway, wheyo numerous certificates of their unparalleled success are always open to inspection.

Editorial Dilemma.— During the last dead season, the editor of a country paper being much distressed for matter, ransacked every Hole and corner for intelligence; and after having, as be thought, completed his task, eat down to dinner with what appetite he might. In;the middle lie was interrupted by the entrance of his familiar, alias “the devil,” demanding “more copy!” “Blast the fellow.” .“Mora copy!” said he, “Why, have you put io the story of the tremendousmushroomfoundinMr.Jones’sfieldl” “Yes, sir.” Aud the account of the prodigious cropot apples gathered from Mr, Timm’s tree’s?” “Yes, sir.” “And about Mr, Thomson’s kitten being sucked by a hedgehog!” “Yes; air.” “And Mr. Smith's dreadful accident with his one-horse chaise as ho passed down Holborn Hill?” “Yes, sir.” “About, tho Man who stole the corn odt of tho each in 'lie farm-yard!” “Yes, sir, it’s all up, but there yj still a line and a half wanting,” “then aild,”'said he, with great dignity, “that they most au-da-ci-ous-ty threshed it out on the premises!” ' . .

The cause of bilious complaints AND A MODE OF CURE.—A well regulated and proportionate quantity of bile on the stomach is always 1 requisite for the promotion of sound health—it stimulates digestion, nnd„kccps the intestinal canal free from all obstructions. On the inferior surface of the liver is n peculiar bladder, in which the bile is first preserved, being formed by the liter from the blood. Thence it'pnsses into the stomach and intestines, and regulates the indigestion, Tims we tee when there is a deficiency of bile, (he body is .constantly costsvc. On the other band, an overabundance of bite, causes frequent nausea in the stomach; and often 1 promotes very, tcrere attacks of disease, which sometimes end iti death: Foyers are always preceded" by symptoms of a disordered stomach;atarc alio rerofulout disorders, and all sympathetic functional, organic or febrile diseases. From tne same came, the imtura) and healthy action of tlie heart, and the whole vaiculartyitcai it impaircd and reduced bclotv its natural standard; as exhibited in palpitations, languid pulse, torpors of the limbs, syncope, and even death itself, in consequence of an overabundance of a peculiar offensive substance to the digestive organs. Thu approach of bilious dieases it at all times attended by decided symptoms of an existing diseased state of the stomach and bowelt; i. e. with those signs which are kfiown to point out their contents to bo of a morbid irritating nature; but whenever(he alimentary canal happens to be loaded with Irritating matter, some derangement of the healthy operation, either of the general system, or oftomo particular organ of the body is the pertain result; and when this state happens to be united with any other symptoms Af disease, Us effects are always thereby much aggravated. The progress of organic obstruction is often so rapid as scarcely to admit of time for (he application of such aid as is to be offered by art, yet, in general, the premonitory symptoms of gastric load are perceptible for a day or two previous to the naroxistos, a period, when (he mnsi efficacious assistance may be given, by unloading the stomach and alimentary canal of it* irritating contents; and thus reducing the susceptibility of dt-casc, MOFFAT'S LIFE MEDICINES, should always bo taken in the early stages of bilious complaints; and if persevered in strictly according to the directions, will positively effect ft cure. The mineral meUicinesofloft prescribed in thesediseases, although they may effect a temporary cure, at the same time create an unhealthy state of the blood, and consequently (end to promote a return of the

Ox Oxn Condition.— Some years ago, when tho Legislature of one of the .Middle States were framings new Constitution, the discussion of its various provisions was warm and obstinate. Many days had been spent in licry debate, and the vote was at length about to be taken, Juet nt this moment, a country member who had been absent for some days previously, entered the House and look his seal. An oilier member, who was in favor of the amended Constitution, went to him and endeavored to make a convert of him. “You must vote for the Constitution, by all means,” said he, “I’ll think of it,” said the country member. .“You must make up your mind at once, man, for the vote is about to be taken.” The country member scratched his head, and seemed puzzled. “Come, why do you hesitate? Will you promise me to vote fir the Constitution? 1 am sure it will give general satisfaction.” -“I’ll vote for it on one condition,” said the country member.” “What is that!’.’ “And on r.o other, by god!” \ “Hut what condition is it!” ! Y’Why, that they let it run by my farm.” A-Rabsos Toucher—Old Parson M, of Worcester county, used sometimes to he absent on a misshmary tour.
