EVENING STAR. BRILLIANTS. THE POWER OF MUSIC. Warrlors the flm wltb animated sounds, Pours balm Into the bleeding lover's wound ; Me'ancholy lifts her bead, Morpheas rots?? from bis bed, Sloth unfolds her arms and wakes, Listening envy drops her snakes; Intestine war no more our passlous wage, And giddy factions bear away their rage. ' [P?f. MUSIC. There's mualc In the foreat leaves, When summer winds are there, And la the langh of forest girls That braid their sunny hair; The flrst wild bird that drinks the dew From violets of the spring, lias music In his song, anil In The fluttering of his wing.

There has long existed a public demand for an ettlscLve Purgative Pill which 03uld be rt.lled on as sure and perfectly safe in It* operation. This has been prepared to meet that demand, and an eitensive trial of its virtues has oonciuslvely shown with what success it accom plishes the Purpose designed. It Is easy to make a Physical Fill, but not so easy to mak* the best jf all Pill*?one which should have none 'I the objections, but all the advantage** of every other J I'l.is has been attempted here, and with wha! snc^ (>*ss w? would respectfully submit to the public l?cl*ion. It has been uufortuuate for tiie putient aUhcrto that almost every purgative medicine is icrLnonious and ir.Hating to the bawel*. This ?sr.?,t Many of them produce so much ^rl pi an oain ui-d revulsion in the system as to more than counterbalance the pood to be derived fro?r them i'hesc Pills produce no irrltat'.on or pain, unless it arises from a pre?lously existing obstruction or derangement In the bowels Being purely vege* table, no harm can arise from their ..nc in any quantity; but it is better than any medicine should be taken Judiciously. Minute directions for their use in the several diseases to which they are ap pllcable are given on the box. Among the coin plaints whlcn have been speedily cured by thein we may montlon Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice indigestion, Languor and Loss of Appetite, Ltstiessness, Irritability, B llou* Headache, Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pa!n In the Side and Loins, for in trut'., alltheseare out the consequence of diseased action of the liver. As an aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Costlvenews. Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors. Scrofula and Scurvy, Colds, with sore news of the b'dy, Ulcers and impurity of the blood: In nhort any and every case where a purga tlve is required. They have also produced some singularly sue eessfulcures In Rheumatism,Gout, Dropsy, Grav el, Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, i'alnsin the Back, Stomacn and Side. They shovldbe freely taken in the spring of the year.to purify the blood and prepare the system for the change of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the atOMich intc healthy action, and restores the appe tite ~nd vigor. They purify the bii*;d, and by thilr stimulant action on the circulatory system, renovate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole organ lain. Hence an occasional do^e Is advantageoj* sven though no serious derangement exists; but unnecessary dosing should never be carricd to< far, as every purgative medicine reduces th? strength, when taken to excess The thousand cases in which a physic Is required cannot be enu merated here, bat they suggest themselves to thf reason of evi*ry body; and It is conhdently be lieved this pill will answer a better purpose thar anything which has hitherto been available tr mankind When their virtues are once knowr the public will no longer doubt what remedy t? employ when In need of a cathartic medicine Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take and being purely vegetable, na harm ce.u aris. from their use In any quantity.
