MQBBQ 33$ VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES.

[ FRESH SUPPLY.]

HESE Medicines are indebted for their name to

their manifest and sensible action in purifying the springs and channels oflife, and eriduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In many hundred certified cases which have been made public, and in almost every species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of Mofi‘at’s Lifi: Pills and Phenix Bitters have been gratefully and publicly acknowledged by all persons benefited, and who were previously unac‘ quainted with the beautifully philosophical principles upon which they are compounded, and upon which they consequently act.

The Life Medicines recommend themselves in diseases ofevery form and description. The first operation is to loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels the various impurities and crudltics constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened faeces which collectin the convolutions of the small intestines. Other .rniedicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitual costive- ness, with all its train of evils, or sudden diarrhoea, with its immi- nédf'flgngers. This fact is well known to all regular anatomists, who Iexa’mine the human 'bowels after death: and hence the prejudice of these well informed men against quack medicines— or.medicines prepared and heralded to the ublic *by ignorant persons. The second effect ofthe Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and b this means, the liver, and the lungs, the healthful action of w iioh entirely depends upon the regularity ofthe urinary organs. The blood, which takes its red ‘colour from the agency of the liver and the lungs, before it passes into the heart, being thus purified by them, and nourish- ed by food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely through the veins,renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek.

Mofi'at’s Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly tested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for Dyspepsta, Flatu- lency, Palpitation ofthe Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn and Headache, Restlessness. Illtemper, Anxiety,Langou’r and'Mc. lanclioly,Costiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevcrs of all kinds, Rheumatism,Gout,Dropsies ofall kinds, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consumption, Scurvy, Ulcers, lnveterate Sores, Scorbuiic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy and other disagreeable complexions, Salt. Rheum, Ery- Sipelas, common Colds and Influenza, and various other com- plaints which afflict the human frame. In Fever .and Ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently suc- cessful—so much so, that in the Fever and Ague Districts, PhySICI- ans almost universally, prescribe them. ,

All! that Mr. Mofl'at requires of his patients is, to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a Newspaper notice, or by anything that he Iliimseli may say in their favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by the results ofa fair trial.

MOFFAT’S. MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health. This little pamphlet, edited by W. B. Moffat, 375, Broadway, New York, has been published .for the purpose of explaining more fully Mr. Mofi'at’s theory ofdiseases, and Will be found highly interesting to persons seeking health. It treats upon prevalent diseases, and the causes thereof. Price, 25 cents (ls. Gd.)—for sale by Mr. Mofl'at’s agents generally.

a: . t" , _,PRINCE ‘EDWARD ISLAND. .una‘rdAtlantic Steamers having commenced g/between Liverpool, England,and Halifax, Nov'a ,1), new era is formed in the History of: the North ,Tolonies. This expeditious mode ofconveyance will,

" ring to their shores a number of individuals in search land'fertilc locations; a’nd‘tlie Advertiser, therefore, h persons. having agricultural views, to visit Prince land, so justly styled by writers “The Granary of . :IIL America.” It is situated in the Gulpli of St. Law- . _ , > ,s onlytwo days’ travel by Coach and Steamboat from ,Halifax,N. S. This Colony, with respect to salubrity ofclimate, fertilitxgofsoil, and excellent waters, is second totfew, if any, in the British Dominions. The capitalist who determines on emi- grating, may licre purchase wilderness lands from 15s.1025s, per acre; or improved Farms, in different sections ofthe Island, at from £2 to £6 per acre, according to situation, and the value of tlieBuildings erected upon the property. The soil of,tliis ISlillld"'pr0diiccs nearly all kinds of grain, hay anti vegetables; and can , as well as agricultural implements, suitable to the Colony" ‘n be obtained at moderate prices. There are twelve Agricult ‘ral Societies, established within the last few years, activelyxemployed In introducing from different counti‘ies the most 1‘ proved breeds ofLive Stock, Agricultural Implements, &c. sortable for the farmer.

To the Emigrant, even though but a small capitalist, Prince Edward Island Qfl'ers many advantages :—First, its general pros- perity, which is sufficiently proved by the, increase of its ex— ports, and HS steadi ' proving reverii'i‘li’.‘ Second, aliealthy climate. Third, a ple supply ofgood water throughout the whole Island. Fourth, fertility of the soil, and its'freedom from all taxes, burtliensome to the Settler. Fifth, the convenience ofsettlement, whereby the ruinous expenses which are some- times incurred, by having to travel hundreds of miles, after landing, to a place of location, are almost totally avoided. Sixth, a certain remuneration for the labours ofthe Agriculturist, by a sure market, and a fair price, for all the surplus produce of his farm. Seventh, the labourer readily meets with employ- ment,. and receives liberal wages. v Eighth, to the Briiisli Emi- grant it ofl'ersthe enjoyment of the benefits to be derived from the laws, language, customs and mannersof his native land; and hip preserves in himself an identity ofintercst with that Of the parent state. Ninth, Prince Edward Island is now only thirtee‘g days' travel, by Cunrird’s line of Atlantic Steamers, from Englaiul; and, if a Colony affording regular opportunities 0f speedynntercourse with the mother country, and possessing the a vantages beforc enumerated, be desirable, the Advertiser, who h, s spent twenty years in the Island, thinks he may safely venture toinvite such individuals as have resolved, or shall de- terminp to emigrate, to pay it a visit; and should they be indu- ced to establish themselves and families here, in preference to a foreign state, they will have the satisfaction to know that tlicirjposteritv willbe Scions of the British Empire.

Perhaps, on inquiry, they may find a Sherig’s Deed without a Sheriff—a Sale without an Appraisement, and one of the Ex-. ecutions (for ‘lhere were two) an quity of Redemption, which this extraordinary sale was intended to satisfy, of which there is no judgment on record; and the amount of sale was probably sufficient to liquidate adozen Executions, which appears to be a manifest contravention ofthe Act.
