Oa.igjae Of tIse Life oNcdici2ees.

TNHE reader may not perhaps be aware -As that the origin of Motfat's Life Medi. cines was the result of a protracted and pain. full illness of their originator, MT. John Moi, fat. When taken ill, Mir. M. was prosper. ous and flourishing merchant in the Iowei part of the city and having consulted and employed number of our most skilful phy. sicians, he, after months of suffering, was prevailed upon to purchase the recipe of the invaluable vegetable preparation now offer cd to the public.
 The effect of the Life Medicines in his own case was so singular and remarkable, that he immediately determined to offer to the world medicine to which he had not only owed his life, but his happiness. The uniform success which has since attended their ad- ministration in every instance, where fair trial has been given them, has been attested by thousands, and inconteStibly proves their intrinsic merit.
 THE LIFE MEDIcINEs-GENERAL REMARKS. These medicines are indebted for their name to their manifest and sensible action in pu. rifying the springs and channels of life, and cnduing thcin with renewed tone and vigor, and to the undoubted fact that at very early period in their history they had rescued suf- ftrers from the very verge ot an untimely grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the day. prescribed by physicians had utterly tailed, in which cases they also permanently secured that uniform enjoyment of health, without which life itself is but partial bless ing. So great indeed had their efficacy inc variably proved, that it was scarcely less than miraculous to those who were unac" qualnted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they were compound cd, and upon which they consequently act.
 THE PHGNlX BITI FRS are so called because they possess the power of restoring the expiring embers of health, to glowing vgor throughout the constitution, as the Phoenix is said 10 be restored to life from the ashes of its own dissolution. The Phoenix BIters are entirely vegetable, composed of roots found only in certain parts of the west crn country, which will infallibiy cure FEVERS AND AGUES$of all kinds will never fail to eradicate entirnly-all the effects of Mercury, infinitely sooner than the nIust powerful preparations of SarSaparilla, and will immediately cure the determination of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never fail in the sickness incident to ynung females; and will be found certain remedy in all cases of nerD- ""; debility aud 'oeakness of the most impaired constitutions. As remedy for Chronic aud InRammatory Rheumatism, the efficacy of the Phoenix Btters will be demonstrated by the use of q single bottle.
 The proprietor rejoices in the opportunity afforded by the universal diffusion of the press, for placing his VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES within the knowledge and reach of every individual in the community. Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries, which boast of vegetable ingredients. the Lite Pills are purely and SOLELY VEGETABLE and contain nehher Mercury. Anthony Arsenic, ncr any other mineral, in any form whatever. They are entirely composed oi extracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues of which, though long known to sev. eral Indian tribes, and recently to some em. inent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto. ycther unknown to the ignorant pretenders io medical science and were never before administered in so happily ctiicacious com bination.
 Their first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudties constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened taces which collect in the convolutions o the small intes;ines Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col iected masses behind as to produce habltua costiveness, with all its train Of evils, or sud den diarrhoea, with its imminent dangers This fact is we'll known to all regular anato mists, who examine the human bowels afte death and hence the prejudice of these wei informed men against the quack medicine of the age. The second effect of the VIE GETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse thu kidneys and the bladder, and by this mean inc liver and the lungs, the healthtul actiol of which entirely depends upon the regulari tv of the urinay organs. The blood, whicl takes it's red color from the agency of tn liver and the lungs before it passes into tn heart, being thus purified by them, an' nourished by food coming from clean sto mach, courses freely through the veins' re news every part of the system. and triumph antly mounts the banner of health m tn blooming cheek.
 The following are among the dis,rcssinl variety of human diseases, to which the We geiabie Life Pills are we'll known to be m tallible:
 DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing tn first and second stomachs, and creating
 flow of pure healthy bile, instead of :he stal and acrid kind ;-Flutulency, Paipitation the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn an Headache.
