PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
i OF LAW AND Equity, under the direc-
ton of Francis J. Troubat esq, of Philadelphia;
Hen. Ellis Lewis, 10 I4ancaaer; and Wilson Nc
Candless, esq, Of Pittsburgh
This work contains the best productions of Eng
lish law authors, without regard to pr0ty of claim
On the part Of any American Publisher. Such books
are now notoriousy too dear. The reason is, that
as fast as they appear, they become monopolies in
the hands of booksellers the Atlantic cities. I'm
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition Of
notes of American decisions, the latter claim an UNI
divided title to thosb works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers Of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books fast as they emanate from the
London market Should new editions of the works
Of such writers as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbold, appear, they shall also be included;
and digests Of equity and law decisions-works
which have been studiously kept out of the Law
Library published at Philadelphia--shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
~ This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of 160 pages, printed fine white paper, end
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.

DIR. DYoTT'S ANTl-BILlOUS PILLS.


A family medicine, mild and gentle purga-
IA tive, and purifier of the blood. The general
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.. Dyotts celebrated pills are so deservedy
distinguished for curing. By their counteracting
properties in removing the bile from the stomach,
they prevent and cure the bilious fever; chills, or
agle and fever spring and fall fevers yellow fever
bilious choc; pleurisy; dyaentery; worms bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach.
BY cleansing the bowels and stomach from all i'm
purities, they restore the loss of Appetite remove
aatulency, cure the headache, habitual cosveness,
colds, coughs asthma, epileptic fits, hypochondria
hysterical complaints, stranguary, gravel, &c.
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
ment, or from indiscreet intemperance.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia or indges-
ton, bronchitis, liver complaint, &c.
They are an infallible medicine for female com
plants generally, and especially for removing those
at certain periods they possess the eminent advan-
tage over most other purgatiyes, that, while they
operate gently they produce neither cosveness de-
billty, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is prtdsposition to receive
disease from marsh effluvia, or from too copious
use of ardent spirits, from vitiated state Of the
bile, these pills will assuredly counteract il.
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 be used. They will be found particu-
larly valuable for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates; they detcrge and cleanse vscid humors
open distractions, and promote the secretion OF
good bile operate as an easy cathartic az power
full diuretic, and as daphoreiic.
DIR. 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
well as the afflicted at leace once fortnight, du-
ring the spring and summer months, in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice will
