DR. DYOTT»S anti-bilious pills
Asa family medicine, a mild and gentle!
purgative and a purifier of the blood. The gen
o-ftl use ot those celebrated Pills throughout the
Uuitod States, for these forty years past, and the!
strong recommendations they have acquired from ,
all classes of our fellow citizens, places them in a
much m sre elevated situation in public estimation,
than any other remedy which lias heretofore beet)
introduced.
The following are among the many diseases for
which Dr. Dvott’.* celebrated Pilis are so deserved
ly distinguished for curing. Ily their counteract
ing properties in removing the bib; from the stom
ach ‘they prevent aud cure the bilious fever; chills
or ague and fever ; spring and fall fevers; yellow
fever ; bilious cholic ; pleurisy ; dysentery; worms;
bilious vomiting , sick aud foul stomach.
Ity cleaning the bowels and stomach from all im
purities, they restore the loss ofappetite, remove flat
ulency, cure the Ijcadaelto, habitual costivoncs-.
colds, coughs, asthma, epeliptie fits, livpucliondria. !
hysterical complaints, stransguary, gravel, See.
By a general and copious use they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and gout, :
lumbago or pains in the back. All impurities in
the bloo l viebl to their happy effects, whether pro
ceeding from constitutional ailment or from indis ]
creel intemperance.
These celebrated pills have been used to very '
great advantage in ciuing the dyspepsia or indi- i
gestion, bronchitis, liver complaint, See.
They are an infallible medicine for Female Com
plaints generally, and especially for removing those
obstructions which are the source of their ailments
at certain pci io Is, they possess the eminent advan
tages over most other purgatives, that while they
operate gently, they produce neither coslivencss,
debility, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is a predisposition to receive dis
ease from marsh effluvia, or from a too copious use
of ardent spirits or from a 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
exetcisecan be used. They will be found particu
larly valuable for preventing diseases incidental to
hot climates, they deteree and cleanse vicid hu
mors, open obstructions, and promote the secretion
of good bile, operate as an easy cathartic as a pow
erful diuretic, and as a diaphoretic.
Dr. Dvott, under the strong conviction of the
power of his pills, to relieve the afflicted, recom
mends the use of them to those who are in health
as well as the afflicted, at least once a fortnight, I
during the Spring and Summer months, in which
lie feels assured those who attend to his advice will j
find the benefit they seek.
A bill of directions accompanies oarh box of Pills.

vF INC AR T.—Important to invalids and friends
of the sick.—Medicine, however efficacious, lias al
ways been taken with dissatisfaction hy the sick,
owing to its unpleasant nature. Hence it has ever
been the study of all great physicians to disguise its
nauseous taste. Hut their elTons have never been
crowned with complete success. It was left Cor Dr
Smith to accomplish. Having given the subject his
unremitting attention for nearly two years, he lias,
after spending a considerable amount of money|
produced a medicine which, while it is ovoiy way
agreeable to the palate, is sure to triumph over DIS
EASE and all opposition, and to repay him for his
devotion to the improvement of medical science

general favor with which they have been received
in all parts of the United States, warrant the pro
prietors in the declaration that “they arc the great

any oilier unpleasant sensation, while they arc as

V,'. SI ORA I I\ E.—This mcdiciife is a safe and
i i i tain ( lire in complaints of the Liveraml Lungs.
Consumption, Liver Complaint, chronic and severe
Coughs and Colds, arc almost immediately relieved
and ultimately cured by a faithful use of the Re
storative. Dr ( hilton, the eminent practical chem
ist and physician of New York, attaches his cer
*.i lie a te stating its cnl ire vegetable composition. a f
ter he bail made a careful analysis. It is wholly
devoid of any irritating property, and manifests so
decided healing and purifyingqualitics as twquick
ly alleviate the most aggravating cough and change
the morbid expectoration. Pains in the chest and
side, so often attendant on Lung Complaints, arc
c ffi t tuallv i c moved without the least inconvenience,
the scat of the difficulty being reached much quicker
than any external application. From the rrputa- I
t-on of this medicine in New York, where it has
hern sold for some years, the most indubitable tes
timony is given to its merit. Certificates have
boon literally showered in on the proprietor from
the best sources, and stating the cases of persons
raised even when given up hy their physician.—
The fact of no one single instanceof dissatisfaction
known or expressed, is a strong guarantee of its
merit. The following cer lifioate is Iroin Dr. Chil
ton. the well known Ncw-York chemist.
“ I have analyzed a bottle of medicine called ‘C.
HrinckerliofPs Health Restorative’; and find tli.it
it does not contain Mercury, or any other metallic

\YTA<JSTAFF’S HISTORY OF THE
Vy QUAKI'.KS,—A llistorv of tlio society of
Friend*, compiled from its standard records, and
other authentic sources, by W. |{. Wagsiatr, Si. P.
One handsome volume,8 v«. <gs2 00.
“ This seems to us to bo a work, of decided value
and of greatest interest, not only to prolessedly
theological students, but to all who wish to ac
quaint themselves with tin? progress of peculiar
principles, or the growth of the peculiar sects. In
this excellent work he has given very full and very
interesting biographical sketches of all the men
who were active in establishing,or who have made
illustrious the character and history of the Society.
The work exliil its a close acquaintance with his
subject, and a careful industry in examining au
thentic records concerning it, and is wr itten in a
style which must attract and reward attention.”—
A. y. Courier.
“ This hook is one. that was much needed ; and it
will do good. The introduction is a very perspic
nous hi-lory of Christianity prior to the time of
George Fox ; and it brings down the llistorv of the
Society of Friends in Kngland from its origin to
the year I73G. The work will prove very attract
ive anti popular, and wo 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 all the simplicity of truth.”—Chit ad.
Inquirer.
“ it is something singular, that almost every wri
ter belonging to tlie S ciety of Friends is remarka
ble for verbosity, while the members of the society,
in their oral communications, exhibit great sim
plicity and brevity of speech. This fault of their
writers necessarily confines their publications to a
‘select f* w. ’ hy whom patience is esteemed a vir
tue. Dr. AVagstulT h is judiciously departed from
the established rule, and givi 11 us valuable his
torical matter written in a readable and pleasant
stylo.”—N. 1'. Post.
“ I he author has attempted to consolidate the va
i ious liistoi ii s of Fr iends, and present them in sim
ple but approved language divested of quuintcss
and circumlocution, and in that ho has eminently
succeeded. This volume will he found deeply in
teresting, not only »o the members of the Society of
Friends, but to all readers.”—U. S. Gazette.
“ 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, cither from their quaintness or their vor
bosity of style. To this he has consulted the stand
ard historians and primitive members ot the Socie
ty, and has produced a work which will no doubt
find favor with the public The present volume
commences with the year 1536, 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.”—
Balt. Am
•‘The woi k of Dr. Wagataff 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 we have ever read.
The facts detailed in the volume before us are de
rived from the most authentic sources—the standard
historians and primitive members of the Society.”

of credit, and seems to he rightly valued by those
who have tested its merits.”—American Republican.

&o. 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 are drinking mineral waters, and
particularly those from Southern climates, ague
and fever districts, will find them a valuable ad
junct. Those, who arc exposed to the vicissitudes
of weather on voyages or journeys, can take them
atal! times with perfect safety. In full doses they
are a highly efficacious and safe Anti-billious medi
cine. They seldom or never produce sickness at
the stomach or griping.
There have been many imitations and worthless
counterfeits of these pills putin circulation by un
principled and ignorant persons—the directions,
wrappers, &c , of the genuine pills so closely and
accurately copied, that the closest observer could
not, without a trial of their effects, distinguish be
tween them.

PROPOSALS For publishing, ill (be City ot
Washington, a n-\v daily, semi-weekly, and
weekly, Democratic Republican paper, to be enti
tied THE UNITED STATES JOURNAL, l,v
Jesse E. Dow & Co. J
'•'In list number of our new paper will be issued
on the first day of May next, with nn entire new
dress—new typo, fine white paper, with other im
portant alterations and improvements. The paper
will bu devoted to a fearless exposition of Demo
cratic principles; it will zealously and unremit
tingly oppose each and every cflorl to establish a
mammoth monarchy batik and other mischievous
corporations and consolidations of wealth, which
subvert the rights of the people and undermine the
pillars of the Uebuhlic ; it will oppose an oppres
sive and anti-republican tariff system, the assump
tion of the State debts by the General Government,
and all other federal principles which have nn in
evitable tendency to destroy public prosperity as
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 nn unwavering champion of their inalienable
rights ; the long cherished principles of the edi
tors tire too well known to the public to require
any pledge upon this point. To the Miscellaneous
Department particular attention will lie devoted ;
the Ladies will nlwavs find in our columns a choice
selection from the current literature of the day, a
well as original contributions from the most tain
ented writers of which our country can boast. A
general summary of Foreign and Domestic news
will be furnished.
1 he conductuis have already secured the aid and
co-opeintion of a largo number of the most distin
guished literary and political writers of the day ;
arrangements will also be made, at the earliest pe
riod possible, to embellish oureolumns by the con
tribitlions of correspondents from abroad. With
this brief and imperfect outline of our plan, w c
very respectfully submit our claims to an exten
sive patronage to the consideration of a generous
public.
