We have tried Doctor JOS. Presley Peters We
getable Pills, and have no hesitation In pronouDc-
ing them the best Antibilious Medicine that we
have ever used in our families. We are acquaint-
ed with several families in this city who give them
the preference TO all other kinds, on account of
their mildness, and at the same time, certainty Of
action.--Ne,c- York Examiner.
More than ten millions Of boxes of these truly
valuable Ambitious Pills have been sold in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, Mexico, and
Texas, since the first Of January, eighteen hun
dred and thirty five.
Hundreds and thousands bless the day they were
induced by the persuasion of friend, to try Boa
Of Doctor Peters Pills.
They are in use as a Family Medicine, and all
who have used them give them the preference to
all other kinds, on account of their being a safe,
pleasant, and easy aperient--being mild In their
action at the time; though in their operation,
producing neither sickness, gripping, nor debility.
Doct Jos. PriesHey Peters,
DEAR SIR:-I have used your valuable
Pills these last four years. in cases of Dyspepsia
Liver Complaint, and Sick Headache, and have
found them, in majority of cases, the most vau-
able Pills have ever used.

the British Steamers almost invariably arrive at

Reports of all the important proceedings of Con-
gress, and the different State Legislatures full
ly recorded by regular correspondents employed
for that purpose.
The literary contributions to the Messenger,
either in Poetry or Prose, are among the ablest
and most talented writers in the country. Is there
any reason, therefore, that ii should not maintain
the enviable reputation of being the cheapest most
useful, and interesting Family Newspaper tn the

have cost. Its publication has not only involved
extended and laborious research on the part of
the editor, but great pecunary responsibilities on
the paIt Of the publishers.
The price affixed 10 this work is less, when the
exertion is considered, than that Of any other pub
lication in Europe or America. The investment
and expenditures connected with this undertaking
are much greater than usually attended such pub
locations, and it will be apparent that the publish
must Iely on an extensive sale for their remu-
neration.
The engravings alone are thought by many to
be worth the cost of the whole work. TO non
subscribers the price will be enhanced.
Many testimonials Of unqualified appreciation
nigh be added, by gentlemen who have examined
the work, but the publishers conceive it TO be
necessary. Letters have been received from ma

OBITUARY..

Died on tho | lth iust., in this District, Mrs.
EMILY RAISsFoRD. wife Of John Ralnsiord,
ESQ.,, and daughter of Capt. James Miller.
This lady died in the 22d year Of her age, alter
having been married hut a few months. Death
under any circumstances is melancholy event,
but under circumstances like those connected
with the disease Of this lady it ID rendered Pc
culiarIy painful. She was just niairied to one,
for whom she entertained the most sincere al
fec;ion. She was apparently IN the bloom OF
youth, and surrounded by every earthly bles-
sing that could render life desirable. She had
as we'll founded hopes of a long aud happy life,
as any one within the compass Of our acquair,'
tance. But death came in the midst OF all her
bright and budding prospect, and severed her
from the bosom of her companion, and from
the midst of large circle Of relatives and
friends, whose affections were centered upon
her. None can appreciate the affiIcilon OF a
husband under such circumstances, but those
who havefelt the bitter pang ola similar be-
reavemena Life's green fields, SO bright in
prospect, 80 rich in promise, are suddenly trans.
ferrcd into cherries desert. One unbroken
scene Of desolation is presented to bis mind in
whatever direction he may turn It. The only
consolation left him, in his afficton, Is the well
founded hope, that his loss is her unspeakable
gain. She was tender and affectionate as
wife, dutifal as daughter, sincere as friend.
She was amiable it her disposition. and her
unobtrusive manners endeared her to all with
whom she was associated. In all the relations
Of life she discharged her duties with faith
fuluess. and constancy, that won the respect
and esteem Of all who knew her. The death
of this lady, was indeed one Of those lnscrutia-
Bile dispensalions of providence, which human
foresight can neither appreciate or understand,
and we have nothing Left rs but to bow in hum.
