I ADVERTISE .LENT. Pills.—Liver Complaints
and Dis)rdera of the BiwilF. It is impossiWe to exaggerate the
extraordinary virtues of ths medicine in the treat rent of all
airections of the liver, or irregularit.es of the bcwels. In cases
of depraved or superabundant bile, these Pills taken freely have
nay r been known to fail. In bowel complaints they are equally
efficacious, but they should then be taken rather snore sparingly,
f,r every medicine in the form of an aperient requires caution
when the bowels are disordered, though a more gentle or mere
geni4l aperient than these Pills in moderato doses has never yet
been diacovered. If taken ,ccercling to the printed instructions
They not only cure t e .cmplaint, but improve the system.

THE MISSING STEAMSHIP.

The Lircipothl Courier reports that the schooner
Leader, arrived from New York after a protracted
voyage of forty-two days—double the usual duration
of the passage—reports that on the 2d of this month,
about one hundred and fifty miles to the westward
of Cape C:ear, she sighted a large three-masted
steamer, under canvas, steering eastward. There
was a gale blowing, but the steamer was apparently
staunch and seaworthy. Captain Reid, of the Leader,
thinks that sufficient time has not yet elapsed for
this vessel to reach port. The suggestion is that
this vessel is the City of Boston..
