Las family medicine, mild and gentle pur.
gative, 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 felow-citizens, places them in a 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.. Dyott's celebrated pills deservedly
distinguished for curing. By their counteracting
they prevent and the bilious fever; chils, or
aguc and fever spring and fall fevers; yellow fever
bilious cholic; pleurisy; dysentery; worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach
BY cleansing the bowels and stomach from all inn
purities, they restore the loss of appetite, remove
aatulency, the headache, habitua costiveness,
colds, coughs, asthma epileptc fits, hypochondria,
hysterica complaints, stranguary, gravel, &c.
By general and coplous use, they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and gout,
lumbago or PAINS in the back. '
All Impurities in the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional all
ment, or from indiscreet intemperancc.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia, indiges
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-
tage over most other purgatives, that while they
operate gently they produce neither costveness de-
bility, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is predisposition to receive
disease from marsh ef1uvia or from too copious
use Of ardent spirits, from vitiated state Of the
bile, these pills will assuredly counteract 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 be used. They will be found particu-
larly valuable for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates they deterge and cleanse vscid humors
open Instructions, and promote the secretion Of
good bile, operate "a an easy cathartic, power
ful diuretic, and a daphoretic. ..-.''
DIR. Dyott, under the strong conviction of the
power of his pills TO relieve the afflicted, recon-
mcnds the of them to those who are in health
well as the afflicted, at eace once fortnight du-
ring the npring and summer months, in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice viii
find the benefit they seek. HG-ts

CITY Infirmary and DIspensary.-The

TITY Inhrmary and Dispensary.-The
~ directors Of this institution take great pleasure
in announcing to its patrons and friends that It has
undergone many material alterations and improve
ments calculated to add to the comforts Of the pa
tents. The inhrmary has been divided in such
TO separate the several Glasses Of patients
VIZ: white and colored, male and female; and from
its position and regulations, proffers retirement and
privacy as far an can be wished ..| .a
Two resident physicians are in constant attend
ance, and the nfrmary is visited daily II O'clock
a. m, by the attending pb byscian asd surgeon who
also devote as much time as Is necessary for pre-
scriptions, operations, and dispensing Of medicines
for all such dspensary patients as may be in wait
ing. Besides these attendants, the directors have
been fortunate IN securing the services OF the SIS
TIERS OF CHARITY, who reside in the infrmary,
conduct its affairs, and give their undivided at,en-
tion to the nursing and comforts of the sick.
Private patients may enter the in6rmary under the
special of any of its directors, but other
wise will comply with the regulations Of the insttu-
ton.
In consequence Of the heavy expenses incurred by
the directors in making the arrangements, they are
under the necessity Of charging patients according to
the following schedule, viz:
Private patients. ts................S5 per week.
First class OF patients. .-..........4 do. ..
Second class. .-.........-.... IS DO.
Cases Of mania potu S. TO $40 do.
In every instance the board must be paid weekly,
in advance, to the sister superior who is authorized
to receive it, or security for its payment must be
given, the security being responsible citizen of this
District.
Ii is to be regretted that the directors have been
unable carry INTO effect the great design of this in
sution, as, from the heavy expenses incurred they
cannot extend their charities to the poor as far as
they could wish Thus far the receipts from patients
have not met the current expenses; hence but few
charity patients have been be received, unless
aid be given by corporation and citizens. 1t is
gratifying, however to the directors have had il
IN their powerto the Of humanity through
their dispensary arrangement, by which hundreds
of DOOR, sick and disabled have had dispensed to
them medicines, with medical and surgical advice.
All classes of diseases will be admitted into the
infrmary, except smallpox and naniacs. For
these the directors regret to say, provision has
been made. i#F. ...att &"
The nfrmary will be open for visters daily in the
afternoon. DIR. THOMAS MILLER, ,
