DR.. DYoT"rs ANTl-BILIoUs PILLS.

A s family medicine, a mild and gentle purga.
n tive, and purifier of the blood. The general
use Of these celebrated pills throughout the United
States for these forty years past and the strong
concentrations they have acquired from all classes
Of our fellow-citizens, places them in much more
elevated situation in public estimation, than any
other remedy which has heretofore been introduced
The following are among the many diseases for
which DR.. Dyot's celebrated pills are so dcservedly
distinguished for curing. BY their counteractne
they prevent and cure the bilious fever; chs, OF
ague and fever spring and fall fevers; yellow fever
bilious choic; pleurisy; dysenery; worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach
By cleansing the bowels and stomach from all inn
purities, they restore the loss of appetite, remove
hatulcncy, cure the headache, habtua costiveness,
colds, coughs, asthma epileptic fits, hypochondra,
hysterical complaints, stranguary, gravel, DC.
By general and copious use, they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and govt,
lumbago or pains in the back.
All impurities in the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional all
ment, orfrom indiscreet intemperance.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia or ndges-
ton, bronchitis, liver complaint, &C.
They are an infallible medicine for female com
plants generally and especially for removing those
distractions which are the source of their ailments
at certain periods; they possess the eminent advan.
operate gently, they produce neither cosiveness, de-
bility, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is a predisposition TO receive
disease from marsh efluvia, or from a too copious
use of ardent Spirits from vitiaed state of the
bile, these pills will assuredly couneract it.
They are highly recommended to travellers by
sea or land, and may be made use of with safety
without change of diet, and in situations where no
exercise can he used. They will be found particu-
larly valuable for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates; they deerge and cleanse vscid humors,
open distractions, and promote the secretion OF
good bile, operate easy cathartc, as power
full diuretic, and as diaphoretic.
DR. Dyott, under the strong conviction Of the
power OF his pills to relieve the afflicted, recon-
mends the use of them to those who are in health
as well as the afflicted, at eace once fortnight, du-
ring the spring and summer MONTHS in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice will
find the benefit they seek.

Mr.. Sandon, of the Congress Hall, Albany, is as
sociated with Mr.. Gardner in the management of
the Pavilion Hotel at Sharon. The house is now
open for the reception Of visiters, and pledge is
given to the public that every effort will be used,
and no expense withheld, TO make the Pavilion equal
in all respects any similar establishment in this
country. The beautiful scenery, invigornting noun
tain air, extensive and diversified rides, and its
proximity to Cherry Valley and Cooperstown,
render Sharon most desirable residence for those
in search of pleasure; whilst the established efficacy
of the white sulphur spring presents TO the suffer-
ing invalid all that can be desired. Physicians of
eminent standing have pronounced the sulphur
waters Of Sharon unequaed in this country; and the
thousands that have resorted thither in search of
health, after years of action will corroborate fully
this medical testimony. These waters have resulted
in the entire restoration of persons labollng under
rheumatism, bilious affections, dyspepsia and every
variety of cutaneous diseases. In order that the
reader may be enabled to form some idea of the real
character Of the white sulphur water at Sharon an
analysis is given below Of this spring. and also of
the celebrated white sulphur in Virginia. Whilst
the former contains 90 SIG cubic inches sulphur
cited hydrogen to the gallon, it will be perceived
