Important to invalids and friends ot the sick.—Medicine, however efficacious, lias al ways been taken with dissatisfaction by the sick, owing to its unpleasant nature. Hence it has over been the study ofall great physicians to disguise its nauseous taste. But their efforts have never been crowned with complete success. It was left for Dr Smith to accomplish. Having given the subject his unremitting attention for nearly two years, he has, after spending a considerable amount of money! produced a medicine which, while it is every way a grot able to the palate, is sure to triumph over DIS EASE ami all opposition, and to repay him for his devotion to the improvement of medical science. DU. G. ISE.XJ. SMITH’S | > I ■ K t tr.VI r.lr 1 “IMPROVED INO. VEG. PILES.” Are the result of his labor. Their effects, and the general favor with which they have been received >n all parts of the United States, warrant the pro prietors in the declaration that •' they arc ihegrar/ ext improvement in medicine ever known. Unlike all other pills, these neither gripe, produce nausea nor any oilier unpleasant sensation, while they arc ns powerful as it i- possible for a medicine to be, and be HARMLESS. For sale by _C.

One handsome volume, 8 vo. £20(1. “ This seems to us to be a work of decided value and of greatest interest, not only to prolessvdly theologie. I students, but to alt who wish to ac quaint themselves with the progress of peculiar principles, or the growth of the peculiar sects, hi this excellent work lie has given very full and very interesting biographical sketches of all the men who were active ill establishing, or who have made illustrious the diameter ami history of the Society. Hie work exhibits a close acquaintance with his subject, and a careful industry iit examining au thentic records concerning it, and is written in a style^whie!i must attract ami reward attention.”— -Y. T. Courier. “ This book is one that was much needed ; and it will do good. The introduction is a very perspic nous history of Christianity prior to the time of (•enrge box : and it brings flown the history of the Society of b’riciifla in Knglaod from its origin to |he year I7.5G. The work will prove very attract iv and popular, and we can confidently recom mend it to all classes, for they will find in it the history of persecuted goodness, plainly and char itable told, in nil the simplicity of truth'.”— Vhilatl. Inquirer. “ somethin? Mnirular, tlmt almost every wri I'T bclongieg to the S .eiety of Friends is romarka hie for verbosity, while the members of the society, in.thi ir oral communications, exhibit groat- aiin [-1 icily and brevity of speech. This fault of their writers necessarily confines their publications to a ‘select few/ by whom patience is esteemed a vir tue. Dr. AVagstaff has judiciously departed from the established rule, and givi n ns valuable his torical matter written in a readable and pleasant style.”—-Ar. 1'. Post. l'hc author has attempted to consolidate the va rious histories of Friends, and present them in sim ple hut approved language divested of quaintess and circumlocution, and in that he has eminently succeeded. This volume will he found deeply in teresting, not only *o the members of the Society of Friends, hut to all readers.”—U. S. flazctte. “ The object of the author is to furnish a com pendious and modern work, in order that the his tory of the Society may he known without the ne cessity of searching records unadapted to general reading, either fiom their quaintness or their ver bosity of style. To this lie has consulted the stand ard historians and primitive members of the Socie ty, and has produced a work which will no doubt find favor with ilie public- The present volume commences with the year 1336, and extends to 1736. It is the design of the author to prepare shortly another volume, containing a full account of the privations endured by the Society in America.”— Halt. Am “The work of Dr. YVagstafT contains the most satisfactory and interesting exposition of the rise and progress of the Society of Friends, and of the doctrines which they hold,' that wc have ever read. The facts detailed in the volume before us arc de rived from the most authentic sources—the standard historians and primitive members of tire Society.” —Journal of Commerce. “This work has already attained n vast amount of credit, and seems to be rightly valued by those who have tested its merits.”—American Republican.

They are a safe and comfortable Aperient for females during pregnancy and subsequent confine ment, relieving sickness at the stomach, headache, heartburn, and many of the incidental nervous af fections. Literary men, students, and most other persons of sedentary habits, find them very conve nient. Those who indulge too freely in the pleas ures of the table, find speedy relief from the sense of oppression and distension which follow, by ta king the pills. As a dinner pill they arc invalua ble. Those who arc drinking mineral waters, and particularly those from Southern climates, ague and fever districts, will find them a valuable ad junct. Those who are exposed to the vicissitudes of weather on voyages or journeys, can take them at all times with perfect safety.

Tiw amw" ■Amawuwr'—uvrrwrvr—ii»jw rw»suw— PROPOSALS For publishing, ill the City ot Washington, u new daily, semi-weekly, and weekly, Democratic Republican paper, to be enti tled THE UNITED STATES JOURNAL, by Jesse E. Dow & Co. ’•'ho list number of our new paper will be issued on the first day of May next, with an entire new ! dress— new type, fine white paper, with other ini i portent alterations and improvements. The paper will be devoted to a fearless exposition of D< mu lct atio principles; it will zealously and unremit tingly oppose each and every effort to establish a mammoth monarchy hank and other mischievous | cor mirations and consolidations of wealth, which subvert tin- rights of the people and undermine the pillars of the Kcbublic; it will oppose an op'oes sive and anti-republican tariff system, the assump tion of the State debts by (he General Government, and all other federal principles which have an in evitable tendency to destroy public prosperity an well as individual happiness. Against all such po litical delusions, we shall wage unchanging, un compromising war. The Farmer and the Mechanic who produce all the real capital of the nation, will find in our pa per an unwavering champion of their inalienable rights; the long cherished principles of the edi tors are too well known to the public to irquire any pledge upon this point. To the Miscellaneous Department particular attention will be devoted - the Ladies will always find in our columns a choice I selection from the current literature of the day, a wrll as original contributions from the most tain ented writers of which our country can boast. A general summary of Foreign and' Domestic news i will b«- furnished. The conductors have already secured the aid and I ro-opeiation ol a large number of the most distin guished literary and political writers of the day • I arrangements will also (h> made, at the earliest pe i i iod possible, to emb< Dish our columns hy thr con tributions of coirespondents from abroad.
