DYSPEPSIA—ITS REMEDY!
BUSS’ Dyspetic Remedy.
A new medical compound, and the result of long prac
tice, extensive observation and close study of all forms of
disease having tlnir origin in a diseased state of the
stomach, adapted lo every stage of i hose diseases from
their incipient symptoms lo those in which they haveas-
sunted the Chronic lorni. This remedy amt the treat
ment prtscriheil to accompanv the latii g of the medi
cine, have ihe sanction of years of success! til application
in private practice. It was not suddenly hit upon,nor
dri ameil ot, but is the assertion ot facts and experiments
collected in the daily rounds of duty ns a practising phy
sician, and is given to the public: in a popular form, ill
the hope, ns iii the belief, that it will not fail in giving
relief tn the sufferer from Dyspepsia ami all other dis
eases having their origin in the stomach, in any instance
where the directions are properly attended lo It is en
tirely dissitni'ar to any and every preparation of the kind
now before the people. The originator entertaining views
ami opinions somewhat at variance with the prescribed
notions among medical men generally ns regards the na
ture of these diseases, lias in this preparation brought to
gether medical agents of known utility ami worth in the
form of a new combination, making a compound alto-
goilier and entirely new, and one that will not lail to
c ure in the most agravated and stubborn passes of Ihe
diseases referee! to, providing t|ie medicine is properly
taken, and all the accompanying directions followed out
The undersigned i well aware that th« same encour-
agment has been given, and the same promises have »l-
reaciy been made over and over again by manufacturers
of patent medicines ns regards their different prepara
tions, and the only voucher he has to offer for the cura
tive qualities of this preparation, is the reputation of suc
cess in "Chronic Gases,” that he gamed throughout
Middle Georgia while in the practice of his profession
He would also for the purpose of giving additional
weight lo whatever he may say as regards this new pre
paration, beg to refer to the fact that he is the origina
tor, manufacturer, and proprietor oflhe medicine known
ns“J.\COBS CORDIAL,” the curative properties of
which in Cholera, Dysentery ami diarrhote is now being
proclaimed bv thousands in every section of the country,
and as being all that he ever said of it.
Dyspepsia, like Gout may he said to ' e a fashionable
disease: it, more readily than any other, in various of its
forms, and to a greater extent, finds its victims in the
wealthy and aristocratic circles, especially in cities, and
its insideons workings are often the real, though undis
covered cause of the sallow* cheek, the dull, heavy eye,
and the general inertia; indisposition to either mental or
physical effort, which nre erroneously altriboted to oili
er causes. As a remedy in Dyspepsia, tliis preparation
stands at tlie bead of all others in establishing a healthy
and vigorous action of the various organs, and restoring
to their natural functions those organs which have been
prevented by this disease. * ,
NKRVOUS SUFFERERS; This preparation is also
particularly recommended, as well as lo those suffering
from Diseased Liver. In weak and debilitated systems,
it w ill he found as possessing tonic properties to a pre
eminent degree ami very admirably adapted to a large
jMirtion of the female sex whose debilitated and worn
out constitutions require an artificial restorer.

IIAIR INVIGORATOR AND TONIC*
We annex a few certificates, to corroborate our assertion
State of Illinois, Carlisle, June 27, 1853* —I have used
Prof O* J. Wood’s Hair Restorative,and have admired
its wonderful effect. My hair was becoming as I thought
permanently pray, lull by the use of the ••Restorative,”
it has resumed its original color, anil, I have no doubt,
permanently so. SIDNIil BREESE, ex-senator
A gentleman of Boston writes to his friends in New
Bedford thus: “To your inquiries, I would reply, that I
first commenced using Prolessor Wood’s Hair Restora
tive, my hair was almost white and had been so for the
last ten years: and it was very thin on the top of my
head, and very loose, and pulled out freely; but I found
that before I had used all tlie second bottle, (which was
eiuhl weeks,) my hair was entirely changed to its orig
inal color, (light brown,) and is now free from danruff,
and quite moist. 1 have find my hair cut five or six times
since the change, and have never seen anything like
white hair starting from the roots; and it is now as thick
as it ever was, and does not coin- out at all. It has pre
vailed in my case all that I could wish to ask.
July 1, 1855. Yours, etc
Gardiner, Ma-ne, June 2*2, 1854. Dear sir: I have
used 2 boitlea of Professor Wood's Ilair Restorative,
and can truly siy, it is the greatest discovery of the
age. for restoring and changing the hair. Before using
it, I was as gray as a man of seventy. My hair has now
attained its original colo’r. You can recommend it tu
the world, w ithout the least fear, as my case was oncot
the worst kind. Yours, D. N. MURPIl\.
St. Louis, March 7, 1851. Prof. Wood: My hair com
menced falling off some three or four yeais si»cc, and
continued to do so, until I became quite bald. I tried all
the popular medicines of the day, but lo no effect. At
Iasi, I was induced to try your celebrated Hair Restora-
live, and nin happy lo say, it is doing wonders. I hav •
now a line growth ofyoung hair, and cheerfully recom
mend its use lo all similarly afflicted.
A. C. W1LAI AMS, 133 Second street.
Rasm, Mich* Asgust 2, 1855. This is to certify, that
one year ago, I was quite gray, and my hair so thin up
on tile lop of my head, that 1 feared .Is entire loss. In
this condition, 1 applied for and obtained a bottle of Prol
w ood’s Restorative, and before I had used one quart hot-
tie. the gray hairs had entirely disappeared and i 1 had
thickened up, so as to he as full as usual and it assumed
n glossy appearance, apparently-more beautiful than ev
er it was helore. I do, therefore, cheerfully recommend
it to all those ladies w ho value a beautiful head of hair.
I will also state that I use it now, occasionally, for its
healthy and beautifying effects. S. J- BROWN.
Chicago May 1, 1851. I have used Prof. Wood's hair
Restorative to decided advantage. It prevents the hair
from coming out, gives it a gloss and softness very desi
rable. The few gray hairs I had, have entirely disaps
peared. Others of my family havo used it, and concur
with me in pronouncing it all it professes to be.
HENRY A. CLARK, Michigan Avenue.

SABBATH BELLS.
Ring on, ring on sweet Sabbath bell!
Thy thrilling tones I love to hear ;
I was a boy when first they fell
In melody upon my ear ;
In those dear days, long past and gone,
When sporting here in boyish glee,
Tlie magic of thy Sabbath tone,
Awoke emotions deep in me.
Long years have flown, and I have strayed
Out o’er the world—far, far away,
But thy dear sounds have round me jilayed,
On each returning Sabbath day;
When strolling o'er the boundless plains,
Spread widely in the unpeopled West;
Each Sabbath morn, I’ve heard thy strains.
Tolling the welcome day of rest.
Upon the rocky mountains crest,
Where Christian feet had never trod,
In the deep bosom of the West,
I’.ve thought of thee, and worshipped God ;
Ring on sweet bell, I’ve come again
To hear thy cherished call to jirayer;
There’s less of pleasure now than pain,
In those loved tones which fill my ear.
Ring on ! ring on ! dear bells ring on !
I’m here again, with whitened head.
To hear thee toll. The sounds are gone,
And e’re this Sabbath day lias sped,
I shall he gone: aud shall no more
Give ear to thee, sweet Sabbath hell;
Dear Church and hell, so loved of yore,
And childhood’s happy home, farewell!

WASHINGTON LIGHT INFANTRY.
“Camp Jervey,” Cowpens’ Battle Ground, ?
Spartanburg District, April 22, 1856. )
As intimated in my last, we resumed out
march toward this spot yesterday morn
ing, leaving Spartanburg at 8 o’clock a. m.
On nearing Wofford College, we were po
litely requested by the ltev. Whiteford
Smith to visit the place, which we did,
and were much pleased at the buildings
and grounds. Located, as they are,-on a
high hill, they are visible from any point
in the village. On our return to the road,
we were addressed by the Rev. Whiteford
Smith, in behalf of the citizens : and, after
sending up three cheers for the “girls we
left behind us,” and the many friends
whose kindness we shall never forget,
turned our faces toward this venerated
spot. The scenery over this route is grand
and beautiful, and, if it were only fashion
able, could certainly take the place of the
many now “popular resorts” in different
parts of the country. We came frequent
ly in sight of the* famous “Blue Ridge,”
which can he seen to advantage from more
than one high hill over which we had to
foot it. Passed the Cherokee Springs,
with its handsome and commodious house;
then the Pacolet river, where we were
scattered over the banks as skirmishers ;
made a barracade at the bridge, and our in
valuable friend, Bolles, of the Daguerrean
Gallery, King-street, succeeded in taking
a striking and very lively picture. I omit
ted to mention previously that Mr. Bolles
accompanies us for the purpose of preser
ving some recollections ot this trip, be
taking pictures, in which he has been par-
ticularl v successful. These will form quite
a gallery of attraction in Charleston. At
nearly live o'clock we reached the Cow-
pens—and, as we stepped on that hallowed
spot, sending up ‘cheer after cheer,’ which
re-echoed through those silent forests, we
felt proud of being Carolinians ; and the
flashing eye and steady tread, as we
marched to our camping position, rather
indicated a little feeling similar to that
which animated our forefathers seventy-
live years ago. But enough. Soon all was
hustle. Tents are put up promptly. Fires
kindled, and the clucking of poultry, the
shrill notes of the doomed pig, and the hiss
ing urn, admonish us that dinner is being
prepared; which will, I am sure, he pro
perly appreciated itt half an hour. “Pop-
skull” here flourishes considerably, and,
from some of the tents outside the camp,
sounds have issued during the night which
indicate that the unterrified Democracy
of Spartanburg are comfortably happy.
We have been favored with several visits.
One party brought Capt. Hatch a pistol
found on the ground many years since;
another a pair of spurs, for which they
were duly compensated. Things look as
though we should have a great crowd here
to-day. More anon. P.
“Camp Porter,”
Spartanburg District, April 22.
We erected the Battle Monument to
day, in the presence of a large number of
the people of Spartanburg and the adjoin
ing districts. Every member of the Com
pany participated in the labor, and, when
it was surmounted by the golden eagle, the
welkin r,*mg with the cheers and the shouts
of the multitude, whHe the Cowpens Artil
lery gave the echo in the thunder of their
guns. After participating in refresh
ments, the Company paraded in full dress,
and, surrounding the monument, dedicated
it with solemn services. Our beloved
Chaplain, Dr. Gilman, in some eloquent
remarks upon the eminent propriety of thus
commemorating the bravery and patriot
ism of those who had struggled for our lib
erties, quoted a portion ot the 27 th chapter
of Deuteronomy, in which will be found
the following:
“And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass
over Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God
giveth the, that thou shalt set thee up groat stones,
and plaster them with plaster: And thou shalt
write upon them all the words of this law, when
thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto
the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, a
land that floweth with milk and honey, as the
Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee.”
Ex-Captain Porter also spoke ably and
eloquently, and was responded to in an ad
mirable address by the Rev. Mr. Landrum,
of Spartanburg. Mr. J. D. Burns, of the
Infantry, also made some very felicitous
remarks, aud then was sung the “Banner
Song,” the effect of which was greatly
heightened by the thousand voices joining
in chorus:
Banner Song.
s j
Unfurl the glorious standard,
Which at Eutaw shone so bright,
And as a dazzling meteor swept
Thro’ the Cowpens’ deadly tight;
Sound, sound our lively bugles,
Let them pour their loudest blast,
Whilst we pledge both life and honor,
To stand by it to the last.
Chorus—Sound, sound, &c.
u.
In the struggle for our freedom.
When the boldest stood in dread,
Our Washington was foremost,
With this banner o’er his head ;
And when the tight was fiercest,
And carnage raged the most,
As a beacon light this banner,
Marked the hero at his post.
Chorus—Sound, sound, &c.
in.
British skill and British valor
Could not stay his onward course,
Nor fierce Tarleton, with liisvet’rans,
Withstand his patriot force ;
Where gleamed his trusty battle blade,
This banner waved on high ;
The thunder of his charge was heard,
Re-echoing to the sky.
Chorus—Sound, sound, &c.
IV.
Should again our happy country
Feel the foeman’s hostile tread,
We will emulate the hero
Who so nobly fought and bled;
With our banner waving proudly,
Bugles pealing loud and high,
Onward ! onward! ^to the battle,
To conquer or nobly die.
Chorus—Sound, sound, &c.
v.
Then unfurl our glorious Banner,
Which at Eutaw shone so bright,
And as a dazzling meteor swept
Thro’ the Cowpens’ deadly fight—
Sound, sound our lively bugles,
Let them pour their loudest blast,
Whilst we pledge both life and honor,
To stand by it to the last.
Chorus—Sound, sound, &c.
The applause which followed was loud
and enthusiastic, and when this had some
what subsided, the following spirited ode,
by Dr. Samuel Henry Dickson, was de
livered by Lieut. Simons:
i.
Hail to the Honored Dead !
Here with uncovered head.
Reverently bow;
Bravely our Fathers fought
On this time-hallowed spot;
Ne’er shall they be forgot!
Solemnly, we vow.
li.
Raise the Memorial Stone ;
From black oblivion
Rescue each name:
Let our regardful care
Bid the bright marble bear
Record, enduring, clear;
Give them their fame !
m.
Freedom’s dark hour was then;
Grief filled the souls of men ;
War drained their life:
Vain seemed the patriot’s care ;
Vain, every pious prayer;
Vain, Woman’s tender tear;
Fierce was the strife.
IV.
Britain looked grimly down,
Threatening, with haughty frown,
Ruin and woe :
Subtile Cornwallis’ art,
Rowlon’s cold, cruel heart,
Hot Tarleton’s butcher’s part,
Well did they know,
v.
Here, midst the forest shade,
Anxious, but undismayed,
Heroes had met:
Friends few and sad^hey found,
Foemen were clustering round,
Toils over all the ground
Thickly were set.
VI.
Tiplet and Tait were near ;
Clark’s banner swung in air;
Howard the brave,
Pickens, and stout McCall,
Stood ready, one and all,
Whatever fate befall:
Fame—or—the Grave!
VII.
Washington’s sabre keen
Flashed o’er the stirring scene
Prompt for the field ;
Morgan, their leader high,
Looked on with eagle eye,
Earnest to do or die.
Sworn not to yield.
VIII.
Shoulder to shoulder pressed,
Throbs every manly breast;
Thoughtful they stand:
Georgia’s bold soldiery
Join in the battle cry ;
Maryland’s infantry,
Veteran band,
IX.
Twin Carolina sent,
Men on stern deeds intent;*■
Dauntless to die;
With them the strife to share,
Danger’s dark front to dare,
Noble Virginians there
Eagerly vie.
x.
Now, like the stormy wave
When winds in winter rave,
On come the foe;
’Midst the loud cannon’s roar,
Deadly the rifles pour—
Soon the brief battle’s o’er ;
Down, down they go!
xi. •
One short half-hour has past,
So long the fight did last,
Then it was done;
Then rose the victor’s shouf,
Then rushed the headlong rout,
Ended all fear and doubt:
Valor had won.
XII.
Sacred to victory !
Then did our Standard fly
First o’er the plain ;
Hence, stained with hostile gore,
On Entaw’s field once more
Its fateful folds they bore,
Conq’ring again.
XIII.
England! thy star has paled;
Naught thy proud force availed,
Foiled in tlie fight:
Tarleton’s famed horse, that day
Turned soon and fast away,
"Scared from the bloody fray;
Shameless in flight.
„ XIV.
Now let our hearts rejoice;
Lift up our cheerful voice
Grateful, to Heaven;
Praise too to those who bled;
Those who in battle led;
To the Renowned Dead
Due praise be given.
May the all-gracious Power
Who gave the glorious hour
We celebrate,
Hear ever when we pray,
Smile on our Country’s way,
Make her grow, day by day,
Good, wise, and great.
XVI.
Guard us, Oh God above!
Grant us in patriot love
Still to increase:
By thy divine decree,
Let our blest future be—
Union and Liberty,
Virtue and Pcqpe.
The dedicatory exercises having been
concluded, the Company went through a
variety of military manoeuvres, and then,
having taken a hasty leave of their kind
and hospitable Spartanburg friends, wo
took up our line of March towards Green
ville. The weather wa t lowering when
we reached the site of our present encamp
ment, and while I write it is raining furi
ously. We are under good cover, howev
er, and all in the best health and spirits,
and most highly gratified in recurring to
the memorable and pleasing incidents of
the day. P.
“Ilold Them Loosely, Brother.
So said an old man of fourscore years, as
he walked over the possessions of a rich, and
younger brother. The walls of that great
house were hung with gilded paper, and
everywhere the decorations of gold and
silver made the house seem like a palace.
The old man moved along in silence—now
paused before mirrors, now before paintings
rare and rich; his old fashioned shoes sink
ing uneasily into the velvet carpets—but
at last he turned round with his placid face
all a glow, as he whispered in a tender
manner, ‘hold them loosely, brother—hold
them loosely.’
The old man’s words were full of wisdom;
in the light of eternity were they spoken,
for he had seen the utter vanity of earth,
and the things thereof. He had been poor,
reared in poverty, nurtured in poverty,
continued in poverty—with a heart large as
the world, yet lacking the means to scatter
blessings as he would, because of his
dearth of gold. His little brother had in
his early years been as a child to him.—
Most earnstly did he labor that the orphan
mi°*ht know no want; many a meal he
denied himself that the motherless boy
might not go hungry; and it almost broke his
heart when as he approached the pale of
manhood, he wandered from his sheltering
care, and went away to distant lands.
Many years passed and misfortunes
crowded upon the elder brother. Wife
and children died and left him a weary
but patient pilgrim, to travel on alone.
There came no tidings of his charge;
‘Alas!’ he said, ‘Robert has forgotten God
and me,’ and he prayed for him daily. On,
still on, traveled time; robbing him of his
manly strength and manly graces; dim
ming his sight and laying tho silvery tints
upon his brown hair; and when he was
getting ready to depart there came to him
news of Robert’s return. 0! how that
heart, laden with fourscore years, seared
with the sorrows of a poor pilgrim’s fate,
and saddned by a sense of neglect and des
olation, leaped again. It seemed as if the
vigor of his youth flowed like molten fire
through his sluggish veins and Allied them
nigh to bursting;
He came—the boy of his love, of his
care; a man yet young, though bearing the
scars of the worldly struggle. He came, a
rich man; ready to repay fourfold, as far as
worldly good could do so, the sacrifices of
his aged brother.
He built himself a magnificent house,
to gratify his fancy. The rooms were
spacious, the halls wide and of noble pro-,
portions, the furniture sumtuous, and for
the first time he was taking the old man
his brother from place to place, that he
might admire and be pleased with him.—
At last they came to one apartment, be
fore which the younger brother paused,
turned as if about to speak but restraining
himself cautiously opened the door and
watched the old man as he entered. It
was fitted up with plain old fashioned
furniture, there was no carpet on the floor,
there were rude beams overhead. Six
straight backed, antique chairs stood against
the wall, together with a table of venerable
oak. An old fashioned beaufet was set in
one corner; a sampler, very much faded
and enclosed in a black frame, hung be
tween the windows, and an arm-chair
whose age was over a hundred years oc
cupied a nook by the fireplace.
The old man stood in silence for a mo
ment, then reverently took off his hat. His
thin lips were quivering, large tears stood
in his dim blue eyes which ever and anon
he shut; as if mastering some strong emo
tion. Then he bent forward, and resting
his clasped hands upon the old chair back,
he murmured, ‘my Mother;’ and there
came up a sob from the depths of his aged
heart; his head fell upon his hands and he
wept like a child.
It was very touching to see the few gray
hairs flutter on his temples—and still more,
as the hale and vigorous brother folded his
arms about that bowed down form, mur
muring ‘I must take care of you now.—
This is your room. Many miles have I
traveled to gather together the scattered
furniture that was so dear to us in the old
homestead. Strangers have sat here often
since she died, but nevertheless it is
mother’s chair. Welcomhome—my broth-
er.’
It is long since the old man went to his
better rest, but his words still sound in our
ears, ‘hold them loosely, brother,’ and we
have been tempted, to exclaim, when be
holding those to whom God has given
great gifts or lovely possessions—‘hold
them loosely, brother.’
You who have wealth—who never knew
the canker that eats up the very heart
when the body is overtasked, and yet the
hard weaing and labor brings not even
food enough for the hungry little children
—hold that wealth loosely. It is not
yours. A breath may dissolve it; the snap
ping of one slender cord may send you to
the shadows that lie over the graveyard.
It is God’s wealth—hold it with open fin
gers; scatter it as you go, and make many
a heart sing for joy. Don’t grasp it so
eagerly: it is treacherous; it will mock you
at the last; it will not go one step bey end
the world with you; nay it will even lavish
blessings and carresses on those who have
made your path thorny with curses; it will
stand in its real form at the bar of judge
ment, and sneer at you for the love you
bore it.
‘Hold it loosely,’ and you shall ^jneet
your Creator with a smile—make it your
god, and in that day, the true, great and
terrible Deity will not recompense you.
Mother, with your blooming children,
‘hold them loosely’—great man, with
your gifts and your honors, hold them
loosely;’ but oh! fling to the religion of
Jesus Christ; fight for it, if must needs be,
die for it—but fame, riches, worldly goods
and high place, ‘hold them loosely, broth-
