I wonld refer the reading pal 1iTto the numerous voluntary letters published recently iq this paper and in the Good Samaritan relative to the happy and beneficial of the administration of MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS AND TI1ENIX BITTERS.

Those who have perused the letters above rtforred to' win oDserve mat in almost every case they attest the Tact that no inconvenience of any sort attends the taking of these, medicines, in ordinary cases, but that the patient, without feeling iheir operation, is universally left in a stronger and belter state of health than was experienced previous to being nfllicted with disease, and in all cases of acute suff ering," great relief is obtained in a few hours, and a care is generally effected in two or three days. In enses of FEVER of every description, and all billions, affections, it is nnnecessaiy for me to say anght, as I believe the LIFE MEDICINES are now universally admitted to be the most speedy and effectual cure extant in all diseases: of that class. i The LIFE MEDICINES are also a most excellent relist in affections of the Liver and Bowels, as has been proved in hundreds of cases where patients have come forward nnd requested that their experienco in taking them might be' published for the benefit of other. In their operation in such cases, they restore the tone of the Stomach, strengthen the digestive organs, and invigorate the general functions of the whole body, and thus become to both sexes (for they are perfectly adapted to each) an invaluable means of preventing disease and restoring health. In a flections of the head, whether accompanied with pain, and giddiness, or marked by the grievous calamity of impaired menial energ'y; in palpitation of the heart, flatulence, loss ofanDetile and strength, and the multiplied symptoms of disordered digestion, THE LIFE MEDICINES will be found to possess the most salutary efficacy.

Nervous disorders of every kind, and from whatever cause arising, fly before the effects of THE LIFE MEDICINES, and all that train of sinkings, anxieties, and tre-mours which so dreadfully affect the weak, the sedentary, and the delicate, will in a short time be succeeded by cheer fulness, and every presage ol neaiin. For weakness, deficiency of natural strength, and relaxation of the vessels, by two frequent indulgence of the pas- sious. this medicine is a safe, and invaluable rem edy.

Those whs have long resided in hot climates, and are-languid and relaxed in their whole system, may take THE LIFE MEDICINES with the happiest effects; and persons' removing to the Southern States or West Indies cannot store-a more important article of health and life. -The following cases are among the most recent cures effected, and gratefully acknowledged by the persons benefited: Case of Jacob C.

Let none condemn them un til they have tried thorn, and then we are certain they will not. It is now a settled point with all who have used the Vegetable PER SIAN PII.LS, that they are pre-eminently the best and most effica- cious Family Medicine, that has yet been used in America. If every family could become acquainted w-itb their Sovereign power over disease, they would keep them and lie preparad with a sure Remedy to apply on the first appearance of disease, and then bow much distress would be avoided and money saved, as well as the lives of thousands who are buried out of time by neglecting disease in its first stages, or by not being in possession of a remedy which they can pluce depend, ence upon. All who wish to guard against sickness, should use Persian Pills freely, when needed; no injury can ensue, if used from youth to old ago, when taken according to directions. THE RESURRECTION OR PERSIAN PILLS.

Those pills raise from the greatest weakness, distress and suffering, toa state of strength health and happiness. The name of these pills originated from the circumstance of the medicine being found only in the cemetries of Persia, This vegotable production beingof apoculiar kind, led to experiments as to its medical qualities and virtues- In half a century it became an established medicine for the diseases of that country. The extract of this singular production was introduced into some parts of Europe in the year 1783, nnd used b' many celebrated physicians in curing cir. tain diseases, where all other medicines had been used in vain. Early in the year 1792, tbo extract was combined with a certain vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca, in the East Indies, and formed into pills.

The admirable effect of this compound upon the human system, led physicians and families into Us general use. Their long established character, their universal and healing virtues, tho detergent and cleansiog qualities of their superficial action upon the glandular part of the system, are such as will sustain their teputation and gen eral use in the American Republic. CERTIFICATES. I certify that I have, by way or experiment, used the Hygean, and most of the various kinds of Pills, in my practice, which have bore the highest repute in the public estimation, that hnve been offered for sale in this vicinity for the last five years, included those called tiie Resurrection of Persian Pills and th6 public may rest assured that none among the whole catalogue has answered abetter purpose, ns an easy and effectual remedy, than the Resurrection or Persian Pills, in most cases of disease.

Messrs, E. Chase CoGent Hearing much said about the ex traordinary (dToctB of the Resurrection or Persian" Pills upon those about to become Mothers, wo were induced to make a trial of them. My wife was at that time the mother of 5 children, and had suffered the most tedious and excrutiating pains during and aAer hpr confinement of each. She had tried every means and taken much medicine, but found little or no relief. She commenced taking the Persian Pills about 3 months before her confinement, ther health being very poor about this length of time previous) and soon after was enabled by their use to attend to the cares of a mother to her family until her confine ment.

At the time she commenced taking the Persian Pills, and for several weeks previous, she waa afflicted with adry. hard cough, and frequent cramps, which the use of the Pills entirely removed before using half a box. It is with great confidence that we advise all those about to become mothers.lo make use of the Persian Pills. All those that have taken them in our neighborhood have got along in the same easy manner, and are about houe in a few days. There does not ap pear to be hab'thedanger of other difficulties setting in after confino- ment where these Pills are taken.

Weu.iitedly say, let none neglect taking them, for they are. in th reach of the poor as well as the rich, We are truly thankful that there a remedy which lemalea can easily procure which bids fair to lessen the world of suffering, which many ol hem have to hear; and perhaps save the lives of thousands which oth erwise would be lost.

Above the region of the the snow sometimes falls in separate spiculae. When examined with a microscope. snow reveals a beautiful structure, consisting of needles vvhieli are regular six-sided prisms, firmed from a rhomboid, which is the primitive shase. It falls "more, abundantly in temperate than in arctic regions, and is found to be beneficial rather thau otherwise; for, being a bad conductor of heat, it preserves the plants beneath from ton great a degree of cold. Oinjne occasion in snow fell on the corn which was in flower, and preserved it from a hard frost that followed, so that ultimately corn lipened.

Underneath ice, snow is often found to be not lower in temperature than 32 (just the freezing point;) and hence people buried under the snow, if permitted a free access of air, may live a long while, because warmer there than if on the surface. An old fashioned Marriage Portion. Capt. John Hull, who was ono of the first founders of the Old South Church, Boston, Captain of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery, a Representative of the town, and in 1680 an'Assistant, was a man of wealth. A daughter of his was married to Major Sewall.

As usual in those days, the father was expected to give his daughter a marriage portion. So, father Hull, after his daughter was completely, and richly too, dressed and prepared for the ceremony, caused her to be put into one side of large pair of scales, in "the presence of her friends, and then piled on dollars and crowns, and other silver money until they weighed her down. Report says she was a plump hearty girl. This must have been a fat marriage portion in those days. "Every evil is followed by a good," as the man said when his wife died the day after he became bankrupt.

But you should have been there, at that swate little place, To have seen the red coats turn the right-about-face, From the brave Yankee boys Under Tippecanoe For very soon after they came on the trail, The divil a bit could ye see but the tail While those red looking blackguards, Without any clothes, Show'd a clane set of heels and you. well may sup pose- Thoy got very few scalps From brave Tippecanoe. Long life to the Hero och, sure wont we sing Who trim'd the red coats of that foolish ould King, Who sent Proctor to fight That same Tippecanoe.

Success, too, to Johnson, who fought on that day, And kill'd that big savage they call'd Tecumsa May each true-hearted boy In this land of the free, Whether Yankee, or Irish, just sipg out with me, Huzza for the Hero ofTippecanoe Census of the United States for 1840.
