VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS AND PHOENIX BITTERS. ’1‘ H E S E superlative Family Medicines have long since acquired an established reputation for direct and invariable efficacy in all the prevalent and ordinary diseaseskas well as in many others ofa peculiar and aggravated character. 'l'lieir Virtues are proved by the voluntary testimonials ot'tiic persons they have cured, and who accompany their certificates with their names and places 0t residence These certificates now amount to thousands, being hundreds to each particular kind of disease. They embrace the most frightful'and in- veterate cases of Scrofula, Piles, Dyspcpsz'a, Jaundu‘e, lezous and Liver qfleclions. acute and chronic Rheumatism, Asthma, Bronchitis, Scrofu 115 as well as Mucous Consumption, habilual ('osliveness, l’Vorms, Stomach and Bowel complaints of all kinds, headache, grddiness and nervous debilily, eruptive diseases, and the clouded,sallow, unhealthy appearance of the skirt, arising from various causes of ill health, Fever and Agile ofevery variety, settled pains in the Side, 'bat‘k, organs and limbs, humors, ulcers, (ml breath and iiiiitartl fever, night sweats, and general weakness and osscfappetile, the 1mmtps,swollcn_/ace and gums, affections of the bladder, kidney, spleen and pleura, and the sic/guess inci- dental tofemulcs, together With very many other maladies which cannot be here enumerated. The certificates of cure in all these diseases are immense in number, and clear, direct and explll'll. in description, arid coating as they do, in every case, from the persons cured, they are indis- utable and conclusive in authority. These iuestimablcynedicme sshould therefore be kept by every family and grown person in the Union, as they will be found to be not only the best remedies for disease, but. also its most certain preventativcs, and the surest renovators of sound, cheerful and elastic health. They are singularly mild and agreeable in their operation, and though perfectly etfectual, never occasron even the temporary prostralion and nausea which always follow the use of coarse drastic purges and the use ofcalomel.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY 4 of combining every kind of Mercantile Pursuit with Fisheries and Farming.

TO BE SOLD, by private contract, WATER. LOTS 23 and 24, in GEORGETOWN, comprising more than Six Town Lots, and, more than one acre anda hal, having three fronts—one on Victoria Street, extending more than six chains; on the Harbour, an extent of168 feet; the same on Water Street. At the corner, formed by the intersection of the two Streets, stands a twostory House in progress, 32 feet by 29, conveniently laid out for the accommodation ofa Retail Trade, and a suitable Residence for a respectable housohcld. The land is lound, Ind ofan excellent description. Here is sufiicient room for the most extensive Warehouse: for storing Grain, Fish, Transit. or Commis- sion Goods, and Cargoes of Vessels arriving late in the season and shutout from other ports by the ice, us well as 0. Retail Store; but the Retail business must be only a secondary consideration in the future commerce of Georgetown, as there is no great extent of back country to supply. The most frequented entrance to the Town will he bv the Jail, for persons on business coming from the Northward a'nd North East. The beat holding ground, the most screened anchorage, and the boldcat water for a Wharf, are oti'Victoria Street, and therein no locality more adapted for a Fishing Establishment, should a Company be formed —as no doubt there will lie—than this property.

To prevent trouble, the price is £400. It han‘bccn the disin- genuous and unmanly practice of some—who said they would get it for a song—to attempt, on all occasions, to depreciate the importance and value of this property, and deter intending purchasers. Let such, in future, examine and judge for them- serves.
