ARK universally acknowledged to lmve total

Among the symptoms of Dyspepsia and Liver
unplamts, are flatulency, sourness or burning
the stomach, melancholy, irritability, disaccablc
taste in the mouth ; great irregularity of
petite, which is sometimes voracious, and at
her times greatly deficient, thirst, fetid breath,
nisca weakuess of the stomach, acid eructations,

pressure on the stomach after meals, pain in

unach when empty, dullness, affection of sight
id hearing, pain and weakness in the back, lanlor,
disturbed sleep, cold feet and hands, tremor,
icasincss in the throat, cough, pain in the side
breast, &,c.
These medicines are becoming known and val

n PETERS VEGITABLE ANTIBILLIUUS
PILLS
These Pills need but a trial to recommend
cm.
They are purely vegetable and well calculated
r the removal of all Billious complaints.
They act specially upon the Liver, when in a
rpid condition, carrying off a large quantity of
le, through the influence of the excerncnt funcm,
which, if suffered to remain in the system,
mild produce cither Jaundice, Liver Complaint,
llious Fever, Fever and Ague, or some other
ievous bodily aflliction. In aU cases of torpor
the bowels, they act like a charm. In recent
scs of Dys|>epsia, they are a certain cure. dfa.
r persons who were subject to violent attacks
sick head ache, have been much benefitted, and
vcral perfectly cured in a few weeks by their
e. They are highly recommended as a prevento
and cure of Billions complaints. Persons
tio arc subject to that distressing complaint,
a sickness, by taking a portion or two of them
few days previous to embarking on board the
ssel, will bo almost certain to escape it. Feales
can use tbcm at any period, without inrring
any risk. Parsons going to sea, or to a
uthern climate, should by all means take Rome
these Pills with them.?Their virtues will re.
ain unimpaired for years in any climate. No
ini'y should be without these Pills ; a portion of
em, taken occasionally would be the means of
eventing much suffering from sickness. It is
>m neglect of keeping up a regular pcrisialtic
tion of the stomach and bowels, thus suffering
l)o absorbed and mingled with the blood, unasnilatcd

A greater saving can be made by the employ, sc

ofstock proportioned to their salary, which, when mil
it has not been paid in advance, will be liquidated ge6
by a sinking fund out of their earnings, and held in t
subject to bo assigned to the successor of each, Sci
upon a condition that such successor shall be al- cul
lowed to pay for it by a deduction from his earn- iuti
ings, each person attached to the company be. acc
' comes a stockholder, and, to the extent of his dat
' stock, interested in the success of the institution. ]
I This feature will be rigidly enforced, and in case thii
' any one in the employment of the Company shall tcrl
| for any cause, be dismissed or leave its service, mo
] his stock will lie assigned to his successor. ay<
Agencies will be established in the large cities, by
j where the Company's books can always be had ten
i at the wholesale prices. Uooksellers, and coun- Fit
j try merchants who sell books, now pay a profit Th
( to the paper maker, another to the printer, and to i
j a third to the publishers. Those who subscribe dec
I stock in this Company will receive books at their no
cost, rating the printing at the New York prices, liti
to the amount of the stock so subscribed ; it be- syl
ing understood that the dividend on their stock, lar;
to the amount of six per cent, per annum only, the
shall be charged as interest and that all dividend Co
above six per cent, shall be paid to such stookhol- in
ders. The Company thus guarantee to booksel- Un
lers a dividend of G per cent, per annum on the kn
amount of their stock, and the paj?er maker's prof- ma
it, the printer's profit, and the publisher's profit, pie
over and beyond their own profit as booksellers. '
The advantage to the Company is, that all the sat
stockholders will l>c interested in getting work Fa
for the Company's otiice, and that each stock, oth
holder will always give a preference to the Com- by
nany's paper and the Company's books over those agi
of other maker mid publishers. Jiuch an ar- rea
rangement An the Injoksellers will enable the in
Company, by means of a circular addressed to ma
their correspondents, enclosing their report of the pri
committee of publication, to be tod, and thus del
protect them against all loss by as pertaining in of
advance if a proposed work can be -?old ; for if it wo
cannot be sold, the Company w 11 not print it. cai
Thus the interests of authors, publishers and rei
booksellers will be reconciled, by o. eating a com- wii
munity in which the rights of enJi will be se. sir
cured, the public benefitted by t e introduction ter
of a uniform series of improved school lnioks, and thr
i the South protected against the introduction of coi
any matter tending in the most remote degree to uni
assail our institutions and prosperity. And when
we take into consideration the fact was that there 1
are now held against tho prejudices of the world wil
?that a society with more than five hundred Ta
auxiliary associations spread over many of the wr
States of this Union, with immense sums for the At
gratuitous distiibutioo of tracts and pamphlets, es
1 have declared universal emancipation, and re- Lit
member the influence which early impressions tul
have on the matured mind, all must see the im- pre
1 portancc of guarding against the admission into sui
our elementary books of any matter which may by
mislead the feelings or judgment. "La
Inasmuch ns the sale of school books is much be<
greater, and the value and profit depends much at
more on the publisher, the Company will divide '
the profit with the author or compiler on all ele- str
mentary books. This arrangement will place all am
authors and compilers on the same footing; and ev<
inasmuch as the company will have no interest
in the copy right beyond a contract for tho exelusive
right to publish until a better or improved tor
; hook is produced by some other author, the com- gri
pany will be always inviting, and in fact offering of
I a premium for better and improved books. As it of
I now is, every author encounters the competition in!
