OrigSse Of tbe Ltfe sWeGltctsseS. THE reader may not perhaps be aware Il that the origin of Mofta,'s Life Medi- kines was the result of a protracted and pain ful illness of their originator, MT. John Moi. fat. When taken ill, Mr. M. was prosper. ous and fiourishing merchant in the lower part of the city and having consulted and employed number of our most skiltul phy- wiciafls, he, after months of suffering, was prevailed upon to purchase the recipe of lhe Invaluable vegetable preparation now offer cd to the public.
 The effect of the Life Medicines in his own ease 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 sihce attended their ad- ministration in every instance. where fair trial has been given them, has been attested by thousands, and ineontestibty proves their intrinsic merit.
 TIE LIFE MEDicrNEs-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 enduiDg them with renewed tone and vigor, and to the undoubted fact that at a very early

So great indeed had theif efficacy ifl- Safiabl ts prosBa. that t svsy ,ecnPcaly lsss 4sA1n miraculous to those who were unac- 2 quainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they were compound y cd, and upon which they consequently act.
 THE PHGNIX BITTERS are so called becAuse they possess the power of restoring the expiring embers of health. to a glowing vigor throughout the constitution, as the PhOnix Is said 70 be restored to life from the Ssties of its u~a dissolution. The Phoenix Bis.ers are entirely vegetable, composed ot roots found only in certain parts of the r'-.;- Mfn country, which will infallibly cure FEvERS AND AGUES of all kinds will Asver fail to eradicate entirely all the effects 6r Mercury infinitely sooner than th" mos. powerful preparations of Sarsaparilla, and will immediately cure the discrimination of BLOOD TO THE HEAD; never Fail in the sickness incident to yonng females and will be Sound certain remedy in all cases of nerr- sas debility and iOeakness of the most impaired constitutions. As a remedy for Chronic and xnGdmmGtory Rkeunpatism, the efficacy of the Phoenix Bitters will be demonstrated by the use of . 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 tho community. Unlike the host of pernicious quackeres. wAich boast of vegetable ingredients, the km md and contain neither Mercury, Antimony, Arsenic, ncr any other mineral, in any form whatever. They are entirely composed of extracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues of which, though long known to sev. eral Indian tribes, and recently to some en- jnent pharmaceutical chemists, are alto gethcr unknown to the ignorant pretenders to medical science and were never before administered in so happily etiicacious com. bination.
 Their first operation is 10 loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened tBces which collect in the convolutions of the small intes;ines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such col lected masses behind as to produce habitunl eostiveness, with all its train of evils, or sud. den diarrhoea, with it's imminent dangers This fact is we'll known to all regular anato- mists, who examine the human bowels after death ; and hence the prejudice of these we'll informed men against the quack medicines of the age. The second effect of the VE- GETABLE LIFE PILLS is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means the liver and the lungs, the beailhtul action of which entirely depends upon the reguIari- v of the urinay 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 MOurished 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 in the blooming cheek.
 The following are among the distressing variety of human diseases. to which the Ve- getable Life Pills are we'll known to be in- faliibie:
 DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the nrst and second stomachs, and creating a flow of pure healthy bile. instead of :he stale and acrid kind ;-Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite. Heartburn and Headache. Restlessness, Ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, which are the ge- neral symptoms of Dyspepsia. will vanish, as . natural consequences of its cure Cost. iveness. by cleansing the whole length ofthe intestines with a solvent process. and without violence all violent puFges leave the bowels eOaiive within two days. Diarrk1a and Cholera, by removing the sharp acPid fluids by which these complaints are accustomed, and by promoting the lubFicalive secFetions Of the mucous membrane. Feusrs ef all kinds,
