HE celebrated Life Pills and Phenix Bitters, pre pared and sold by Dr. Wm. B. Moffat, 375, Broadway, New York may now be said to be the most respectably established and extensively adopted family medicines in the United States. They have not only won the sanction and recommendation ofall the candid and philanthropic portion ofthe medical profession, who have observed their invariable eflicacy in general derangements of the stomach and bowels, and their astonishing effects in many varieties of acute and chronic disease, but what is far better, these medicines have recommended themselves, and fully and fairly achieved the distinguished and now certainly pre-eminent position which they now occupy iu public and domestic estimation. They are proved by their works, and make no appeals to vulgar credulity. Ifthe: proprietor were disposed to make an invidious comparison be- tween these self-established medicines and any others, he might confi- dently assert and challenge contradiction that there is no medicine known to the medical profession, or named in their books, concerning which so many clear, unquestionable and conclusive evidences of use- fulness and remarkable cures are recorded as those which he can adduce concerning the Life Pills and Phcenix Bitters. Ifit be admitted that suf- ferers are the best judges as to whether a remedy has relieved them and restored them to health and strength, then is the evidence in behalf of these medicines decisive and irresistible. Dr. Moffat is in possession of an immense accumulation of.voluntary testimonials from respectable persons and families in all parts of the Union, far and near, who give their names and residence to the unsolicited statement that they have been eompletely and speedily cured of the following diseases, and of many rs not here enumerated, by these Life Medicines alone, when other medicines had been long employed in vain, viz: Scrofula, in its most ened pavences and destructive stages, when large portions of the flesh and bones of the face had been destroyed; Piles of five, ten, twen- ty, thirty and even thirty-five years standing; Rheumatism, both acute and chronic, of the most hopeless character; Turgescence of the Liver and various other liver complaints ; Bilious Cholic, and every conceiva- ble variety of bilious affections; Marasmus Tabes, or Decline, and Maras- mus Phthisic,or Consumption, in more advanced stages than any on record ; Dyspepsia, in all its chronic and acute varieties, with its fright- fu] train of distressing ae ns of all kinds, both in children and “Sees persons iarrhoea, both serous and bilious ; Costiveness, both abitual and occasional; Fever and Ague, inits three prineipa varieties, and intermittent and remittent fevers, ofall kinds ; Hypocon- driosis, and other extremely complicated nervous affections, with nervous lity in general ; Salt Rheum, Running Scald, and. eruptive diseases generally, including Enanthesis, Erysipelas or St. Anthony’s fire, and _ sallow, unhealthy complexion; Palpitation of the heart, aud Determina- tion of blood to the head, settled pains in the organs, limbs, back, head and side ; affections of the bladder, kidnies, spleen, throat, and pleura ; jaundice, dropsy and gout ; together with those general affections of the aystem which arise from co: jlicated causes. : The centificates.of these cures are in the proprietor’s possession, and will readily be shown to all who desire to see them. A small selection from them have heen published in Moffat’s Medical Manual, of which a - new and enlarged edition is preparing for the press. The reason why these medicines, which in ordinary family use operate merely as mild _ and effectual laxatives, cure so great a variety of formidable diseases is, ___ that while as catharties, cleansing the alimentary canal, and relieving the er_and the absorbent vessels of all impurities, they lay the foundation for the eure of all specific diseases, they are compounded of unique and dented variety of choice and exquisite ingredients, some of which : unknown to the profession, which exert a specific action upon aints, without in the slightest degree aflecting the general twise than as simple purifiers, when those complaints are Both the Pills and the Bitters are mild and agreeable in ons nor nausea, and requiring Their effects are uniformly to t nt. _ their operations, causing neither prostrati pearl confinemen teed peculiar dict. _ produce an immediate sense of renovated health, and new life and vigou to both body and mind.

Unable to receive acure there, the deponent sought relief at the three following hospitals :—King’s College Hospital in May, for five weeks ;—at Guy’s Hospital in July, for six weeks :—and at Cha- ring Cross Hospital at the end of August, for some weeks more ; which deponent left, being in a far worse condition than -when be quitted Guy's, where Sir BRANSBY COOPER and other medi. cal officers of the establishment had told deponent that the only chance of saving his life was to LOSE HIS ARM!

Here is sufficient room fur the most extensive Warehouses for storing Grain, Fish, Transit or Commis- sion Goods, and Cargoes of Vessels arriving late in the season and shat out from other ports by the ice, as wellas a Retail’ Store; but the Retail business must be only a secondary consideration in the futare commerce of Georgetown, as there is no great extent of back country tosnpply. ‘The most frequented entrance to the Town will be by the Jail, for persons on basiness coming from the Northward and North East.
