HOSTETTER'S
SißPilAGii BITTERSe
The proprietors and manufacturers of I’OS
TETTEiia CEI.EBIIATED STOMACH BlT
'J'lillS can appeal with perfect confidence to
physicians and citizens generally of the United
States, because the article has attained a repu
tation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon
this point will speak more powerfully than
volumes of bare assertion or bl.-izouing pullery.
The consumption of Hostetter's Stomach Hit
ters for the last year amounted to over a half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase in times past, it is evident, that during
the coining year the consttmption will reach
near one million bottles. This immense amount
could never hive been sold but for the rare
medicinal properties contained in the prepara
tion, and the sanction of the most prominent
physicians in those sections of the country
where the article is best known, who not only
recommend the Bitters to their patients, but
are ready at till times to give testimonials to its
cllieacy in all cases of stomachic derangements
ami the diseases resulting therefrom.
Thks is not a temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary ellorts in the way of trum
peting the qualities of the Bitters, but a solid
cstiinaiion of.-in invaluable medicine, which is
destined to be ns enduring as lime itself.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved
a Godsend to regions where lever and ague
and various other bilious complaints have
counted their victims Ly hundreds. 'Io le
able to state confidently flint the “Bitters’-
are a certain cure for the Dyspepsia mid like
diseases, is to the proprietors a source of un
alloyed pleasure. It removes all moi bid inatter
from the stomieli, purifies the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sy stem,
giving it that tone and energy indispensable

Plant hi ore Coi-zs I
War is upon us, and there is no telling
how long it may last. The South must raise
its own provisions, as the West is now bar
red against us. If wo hare plenty of corn,
there can be no starvation. On this subject
we copy from the Macon Telegraph:
An enterprbing and patriotic planter in
South Western Georgia recommendsan ea®y
method of vastly increasing the product of
corn, which he has tried with complete suc
cess, and now is repeating it, in order to have
plenty for himself and to spare for the neces
sities of the country. The plan is to cross
his cotton rows on the best land at intervals
of twelve feet with a furrow for corn nnd
plant at the intersection of every other cotton
row—thinning out two stocks of corn. This
diminishes the yield of cotton very slightly
ar.d will bring about fifteen bushels of corn
to the acre. He has tided it, and speaks
from actual experiment.
Now is the time for this to bo done. Let
every planter take this suggestion into consid
eration. For the sake of all we hold dear,
look out for the corn crops. Bo sure and
plant enough.
The Amoun't of Lead Required to Kill a
Soldier.—At the meeting held at Cooper
Institute, New York, Dr. Church addressed
the audience upon the mortality incident to
war. Disease and exposure constituted, he
said, the great causes of death among s ildiers
There had been obtained careful statistics at
the Crimea and other places, of the amount of
metal employed and the number of the killed
and wounded. The result was that they had
ascertained, with mathematical that
370 pounds of lead were shot away to every
was killed. Prevention against
disease was, therefore what the soldier chiefly
needed.
Tlie Action of tlxc Leglslaf are.
The Legislature has during its brief ses
sion, transacted business of the most vital
importance to the people ofTennessee:
First—lt has adopted a Declaration of In
dependence dissolving the connection of the
State with the United States.
Second—lt has caused to be negotiated a
Military League with the Confederate
offensive and defensive.
Third—lt has enacted a law providing for
the orgaanization of a volunteer militia force
of 55,000 men and appropriated tho sum of
$5,090,000 to meet the expenses which may
accrue.
Tennessee is thus placed fairly upon the
road to equality and independence.— Patriot.

What the Canadians say of
Troubles. —The Montreal Pilot, of April a,,
says:
We much fear that President Lincoln is
about to prove that he is not the fit man for
the present crisis. His very proclamations
seems to be written by one who had lost his
head; the language being so to
make it difficult to arrive at his real meaning,
though this may, perhaps be claimed as part
ot the Machiavcnan wisdom which his sup
porters attribute to him and his Cabinet. * *
It is to be hoped, fur their own sake, that the
North will not think of the blockading Char
leston and the other ports of the South, or
rather declaring them to be in a slate of block
ade, for they have not sufficient force for the
former. England and France have over six
millions of human beings depending for their
subsistence on the supply of Cotton, and can
not and will not sufler-. so many of their
subjects to starve, bdwever unwilling they
may interfere. • Before long they will
be compelled to obey that power—necessity—
which commands b sth gods and men.
Seward, in his instructions to Dayton, Min- j
ister to France, says :
The insurgents have instituted revolution
with open, flagrant, deadly war to compel the
United to acquiesce in the dismember
ment of the L'nion. Th'jJJnited States have >
accepted this civil war aS an inevitable neces- j
itv. The constitutional remedies f.r all the ■
complaints cf the insurgents are still open to
them, and wili remain so ; but, on the other
hand, the land and naval forces of the Union
have been put into activity to restore the Fed- ;
oral authority and to save the Union from dan- ’
ger.
You cannot be too decided or too ex
plicit in making known to the French Gov
ernment that there is n<>t now, nor has there
been, nor will there be, the least idea, exis- ‘
ting in this government, of suffering a disso
tion of this Union to take place in any mode !
whatever.”
Deaf, Dumb and Blind Volunteers.—Mr. '
W. J. Palmer, Principal of the Institute for .
Deaf and Dumb and the Bfind, has tendered i
to the Governor of South Carolina the ser
vices of all the pupils in that Institution— '
the boys to make cartridges, and the gHfau

Steam Communication Between the South
and Europe.—The news by tire steamship
BBtimorc, which arrived in New
Orleans on Monday, includes the follo’wiug im
portant intelligence :
A prospectus had been issued of a Compa
ny called the “ Liverpool and New Orleans
Navigation Company,” with the object of es
tablishing direct steam communication be
tween Liverpool and New Orleans. The cap
ital is fixed at £200,000, with the power to in
crease, and many influential men are engaged
in the enterprise.
It is also announced by advertisement that
a Company had been formed in Liverpool for
establishing direct communication between
that port and Charleston. The first steamer
of the line is expected to be dispatched from
Liverpool about the middle of July.
TJie Message of President Davis
The e.Tjx>se]of the'falsehod, treachery, fraud,
and want of courtesy and courage of the Ad
ministration at Washington is overwhelming.
The double dealing, attempts at deception
cowardly evasions, wretched subterfuges,
false pretenses, contemptible
and shameful and shallow devices which have
marked Ike tortuous and perfidious course of
Lincoln and his advisers awe referred to in
language made necessary by the circumstan
ces and the severity of which is warranted
by the enormity of the offences against decen
cy, good morals, the Constitution, and man
kind on which the comments are based.
Wants to Resign.—Lieut. Renshaw,of tho
Confederate Navy, visited the fleet off Pensa
cola last week, bearing with him a telegraph
ic dispatch from Washington, to Lieut. Mau
daugh, stating that his resignation had been
accepted by the government there. Commo
dore Adams positively refused to let Mau
daugh leave the Brooklyn, the ship, on which
he was stationed.-.lfonlTyomery Confederation.
Wants His Name Changed.—An excellent
citizen of Memphis, named Mr G. N. Lincoln
has petitioned to the Legislature to have his
name changed. The petitioner alleges that
his father and grand-father wore first-riite
but he now deems his patronymic un
endurable. Who can blame him ? ’

A Salient Paragraph. A young damsel in
Worcester, Mass., has written to the editor
of the New York Tribune, “ There's that
Morrill tariff Lili, it weighs on my jpind
And tho gallant and fascinating
editor of the Tribune relieves her tender anx
iety by answering : “We assure our fair cor
respondent that tho tariff is a very good one,
and that there’s not the slightest probabil
ity of its repeal.”
Gad With Us.
tlio blasphemous saying of some
great warrior—we forget now who—
always took sides with strong regiments.—
We are satisfied from all our readings of his
tory, that God’s justice prevails over al!—and,
whether il is the weak or the strong, that, in
the end, lie will support the truth, the right,
the pure the just. Wo are not to determine
wh it His judgment shall bo from the casual
ties of a single houi’.
We believe that God is with us. We sol
emly believe that a most Providential care
lias gui led and strengthened us thus far a
gainst the blind ra«® of our enemy; that,
even in those respects in which we fancied we
had lost an advantagc-as in Anderson's a>
bandonment ot Moultrie and taking posses
ion of Sumter-we were mistaken; and tha#
the very strategies of our enemies became the
secret of their overthrow. Anl so of all tho
mean, cunning trickery of the Government at
Washington; and -so of almost every event
since the beginning of our struggle for peaco
tin t independence. The strongest fortress in
the country-supposed to be too strong for all
the power of South Carolina, under a siego of
months -is overthrown in thirty-three hours.
The fortress, so impregnable and sa eagerly
seized up >ll becomes a rat-trap, from which
the rats are s:u >ked out. Even the military
vanity which insists upon saluting its flag at its
overthrow, with one hundred guns, is rebu
ed by an explosion which costs the garrison
more lives than were lost during tho bom
bardment. Verily, if we needed signs and
auguries, we have had them, and of the most
grateful character.
Yes ! we solemnly believe that a Provi
dential interposition is about to rescue us
fiom the cormorant tribes that have been fat
tening so long upon our substance. We have
ma le them great and prosperous ! And they
know not the = >urce of their own prosperity !
They ‘crammed and blasphemed their feeders.-’
By tariff.--, navigation laws, internal appro
