IAB6ESTCITY (IKCILATION
FRIDAY MORNING Au*l4, 18<l ?
|»p-Tt i 3 believed that the following
fine poem was written by the author of
“Stonewall Jackson’s Way." It was
mentioned by Dr. Holmes in his lecture
to the "Songs of the War,” and Mr.
Richard Grant White, in the preface to
his “Poetry of the War,” compares it
with Whittier’s “Barbara Frietchie” as
a spirited example of the true ballad.
It depicts the bearing of Stonewall
Jackson from the field.— Carolinian.
“Whe’ve ye got there?”—Only a dying
brother,
Hurt in the front jnst now;
“Good boy ! He’ll do. Somebody tell bis
mother
Where he was killed, and how.”
“Whom hare you there?” A crippled cou
rier, Major,
Shot by mistake, we hear;
Ho was with Stonewall. "Cruel work
they’ve made here;
Quick with him to the rear!”
“Well, who oomes next?” Dootor, speak
low, speak low, sir ;
Don’t let the men find out;
It’s Stonewall. “God!” “The brigade
must not know, sir,
While there’s a Yank about.”
Whom have we bore—shrouded in martial
manner,
Crowned with a martyr’s charm ?
A grand, dead hero, in a living banner,
Born of his heart and firm.
The heart whereon his cause hung—see how
clingeth
That banner to his bier 1
The arm wherewith his cause struck—hark!
how ringeth
His trumpot in their rear 1
What have we left ? His glorious inspira
tion,
His prayers in council met;
Living, he laid the first stones of a nation,
And dead, he builds it yet.

CHOLERA.
~ A CERTAIN CURE
For this Disease may he
found in the use of
PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
Pain JKiller,
St. Louis, Mo., June 14, 1849.
Mr. A T. Woodward, Agent of Perry Davie 1
Pain Killer :
Dbab Sin : I feel it a duty I owe to the
public, to mako known the value of Perry
Davis’ Pain Killer, and my experience in
using it for some of the complaints for
which it is highly recommended. In April
last, on your recommendation, I purchased
a one dollar bottle of you for pains with
which I hare long been afflicted, and made
use of it ou my trip down to New Orleans,
with tbe most gratifying and beneficial
effects. On my return to this city, the
Cholera made its appearanoe among some
of my passengers. I made use of the Pain
Killer, baviog no other remedy on board,
and, to my surprise and gratification, found
it gave immediate relief! On ray arrival
in St. Louis, I called on you and got four
large bottles, and stated to you my confi
dence in it as an infallible Cholera remedy,
and remarking to you that I wanted no
other Cholera remedy on my boat. I made
use of the four bottles on my trip to New
Orleans and back, for Cholera and some
other complaints for which it is recom
mended, and met with the most astoniehing
success ; when I ordered from you six more
one dollar bottles. Since then I have
made two more trips to New Orleans and
back; aDd on my previous trip up I had
more than
SEVENTY CASES OF CHOLERA
on board, when the PAIN KILLER was
immediately nsed with the most astonishing
results. In all cases where it was used in
time, it gave relief in a very short time;
and I can, with confidence, say to the pub
lic, that in all tbe first stages of Cholera,
when taken in time, it is, in my opinion, an
infallible remedy! and after a fair trial
with it for several weeks, and lor four
trips to Now Orleans and back, and using
it for Cholera and other complaints for
which it is recommended, no consideration
whatever would induce me to leave port
without a good supply—believing it to be a
medicino that no officer of a boat or any
family would be without a single day after
using one buttle; believing it to be the
most valuable family medicine known to
the world for all tho different complaints
for which it is recommended.
P. S.—Please send me six large bottles
for this trip.
J. M. Broadwell,
Captain Steamer Adriatic.
I most cordially unite with Capt. Broad
well in recommending Perry Davis’s Pain
Killer to the public, having myself been
severely attacked with the Cholera, and
found roliof in a few hours by using tbo
Pain Killer, and have myself administered
it to more thau fifty persons attacked with
the Cholera, and when used in time, a cure
was effected in a few hours, and take pleas
ure in recommending it to the public as an
invaluable medicine, that no individual
should be without a single hour.
J. F. Boffington,
Clerk Steamer Adriatic.
Davis’ Pain Killer.— ln to-day’s Union
will be found an advertisement of this cele
brated remedy. Tbe certificates appended
from the captain and clerk of the steamer

founded on facts, as they verbally stated in
