€|c Daily City Printer —Official Paper 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. —Tbe New Orleans Convention pro pose to hold another meeting in Septem ber.

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 Atlantic we know to he genuine, and founded on facts, as they verbally stated in our office the substance of what they pub lish. -St. Louis Union.
