DR. J. BOVEE DOBS’
IMPERIAL
WINE BITTERS
A RE COMPOSED OF A PURE and unadultered
Wine, combined with Barberry. Solomon’s Seal
Comfrey. Wild Cherry Tree Bark, Spikenard. Cammo-
mile Flowers aud Gentian. They are manufactured
by Dr. Dods himself, who is an experienced and suc
cessful Physiciun, und hence, should not be classed
among the quack nostrums, which flood the country,
and against which the Medical profession are. so justly
prejudieed. These truly valuable Bitters have not
been fairly before the public for one year, and yet
there is a heavy demand for them from all parts of
the Union.
Dr. Frink, No. 30 West 35th Street, New York,
says:
I have been greatly benefitted by using Dr. Dods’
Wine Bitters, and am now using them freely andsuu-
eessfully in my practice. As a medicine for Females
I consider them uneqnaled.”
I)r. Guernsey. No. 18 West 23d Street, says:
“I have used Dr. Dods’ Wine Bitters in my prnetiee,
and ill all eases wliere a tonic is required, I consider
themunsiirpassed, aud cheerfully recommend them as
a valuable Family Medicine.”
Dr. Meaeham, of Florida, says:
“For several years 1 suffered all the horrors of Cron-
5c Dyspepsia. I used all other remedies without avail.
I discarded prejudice and nsed Dr. Dods' Wine bitters
which have greatly benefitted me, and I believe will
cure me.”
Mr. G. S. Weaver, of Albany, N. Y., says:
“My wife was sinking rapidlvwitli consumytion; the
best physicians in Albanyand New York citypronounc-
ed her case hopeless. She used Dr. Duds' Wine Bit
ters; and is cured.”
Mr. J. B. Slants,of Newark, N. J.,says:
“My daughter was extremely ill: she had been at
tended by four of our best physicians; her disease was
Inflamation of the Boweis. which Imd produced ex
treme debility. Her ease was considered hopeless by
all who saw her. A friend reeomtnoiidod lit*. 11.sis
Wine Bitters; she used them and is well.”
Mr. Brittain, editor of the Banner of Light, in Boston
Says.*
•*I)r. J. Bovee Dods’ Wine Hitters have cured me of
Piles of the worst and obstinate character.’’
A distinguished lady of Mobile, Ala., writing to a
female friend says:
“1 would advise you to use Dr. J. Bovee Dods’ Im
perial Wine Bitters. I have used them, and consider
them a blessing to our sex.”
We might write a small volume, and then would not
give one fourth of the Testimonials in our possession, as
to the virtue of these Valuable Bitters, but we will on
ly sav Hint they are approved of by our best Physicians,
are doing miicli good in all parts of the country, nnd
earnestly entreat the afflicted to try them.

cheap mode of testing the value ot the different Veg

the success or failure of these experiments will be
highly interesting to our readers. The more widely

LETTER So. 1.
Milledgeviile, Febrnar}’ 22d, 1861.
Dear Emmett*—
Tbe thought has occurred to me that it
might, in some degree, he profitable to
you, and at tlie same time a sonree of
pleasure to both ot us, forme to occupy a
few leisure moments occasionally, iu giv
ing you some hints on what is termed eti
quette, or those formalities, which, by
common custom in good society, have be
come established rules of social inter
course.
I do not purpose doing this because you
have not access to, or do not read the
works of popular writers on that subject;
but rather in the hope that, by this mode
of imparting to you a knowledge of good
breeding, those rules may be more indeli
bly impressed upon your memory, and
may also be freed of some of the false
coloring, not to say erroneous precepts
too often inculcated in books of that class,
since most of them were written by for
eigners, and treat of manners and customs
not unfrequently at variance with our no
tions of republican simplicity. I do not
intend, however, at all times, in these let
ters. to confine my observations strictly to
the subject of good manners; but shall di
gress, now and then, to point out to you
what I consider to he a proper course for
a young man to pursue—the associations
he should form, the tastes lie should culti
vate and the habits he should contract: and
that course of conduct generally best cal
culated to lead to honor and usefulness in
after years.
I have often noticed that affability of
manners iu our intercouse with others,
joined to a sincere desire to please, is of
itself, iu almost every relation of life, a
powerful auxiliary to success; and most
especially in our youthful day6, when we
make our first impressions upon the minds
of those among whom our lot is cast.—
Hence the importance of cultivating, at an
early age, a knowledge and facility in the
practice of those rules, which may be just
ly called the lex non scripta of social in
tercourse. 1 would, therefore impress
upon your mind the precept, ; hat, to ren
der yourself agreeable to others by suavity
cf manners, as far as you can without in
curring sacrifice of principle, will conduce
to your material prosperity; and will, at
the same time, enhanee your less substan
tial enjoyments. I have known not a
few young men, who c tuld trace their suc
cess in the world, iu a great measure, to a
careful observance of the common ameni
ties of life. It is true, they had the ne
cessary substratum of correct principles
and natural good sense; but there would
not have been so available, had they not
been accompanied by a pleasing address.
On the other hand, I have known persons
possessed of enviable attainments in many
respects, who exerted but little influence
in community, and accomplished bnt little
for themselves, from a disregard of the
formula of social life. Be assured, what
ever solid acquirements one may possess,
and whatever other accomplishments may
adorn the mind, without a desire and a
faculty to please, their possession will of-
tener excite the envy than the admiration
of those with whom we associate.
But you ask, what is politeness? Does
it consist in the low bow, the mere formal
recognitin, or the empty salution? I
answer, emphatically in neither. These
are but the outwards signs, and are too of
ten hollow and meaningless. True po
liteness, like genuine piety, has its seat in
the heart. If the heart does not sympa
thize with the behavior, the manners—or
rather, if they do not emanate from the
heart—all formalities are but polite mock
eries. A hypocrite in manners is onlr in
the degree less detestable than a hypo
crite in religion. The object of both is
to deceive. The soul of politeness is
truth; truth in words, gestures, actions,
thoughts. It is manifested by frankness,
openness of heart, good will and kind feel
ings towards all. It is exemplified by a
habitual exercise of that charity which
excels the minor virtues of faith and hope.
It wounds the feelings of no one, howev
er humble. It flatters the pride of no one
however exalted. It derives pleasure from
pleasing others. It covers up the follies
of friends, and delights not in exposing
the faults of enemies. This is Christian
love towards one another; and this is the
foundation, if not the essence of all true
politeness.
In my next I will give \-ou some of
those rules, trusting they will not be found
inconsistent with the moral outlines drawn
in this; and by an observance of which,
your social pathway through the world,
will be made both pleasant aud profitable.
Very truly, &c., W.

As promised yesterday, we give to-day
in full, to the exclusion of several other
matters, the very able speech made before
both Houses of our Legislature on Wed
nesday evening, the 13th instant. Com
missioner Hall was introduced by Eli W.
Ilall, Esq., Senator from this county, in a
very happy andcloaucut speech, iu which
he referred to the identity of interest and
of origin existing between the citizens of
North Carolina and those of her sister
States of tbe South. To their sympathy
and community of feeling, and to the fact
that their fate must be one and insepar
able.
Speaker Clark made a brief address in
reply to Commissioner Hall, referring to
the fact that the State had called a con
vention. ofthe action of which he conld not
speak in advance, but he could at least as
sure Georgia that no hostile foot shall ever
march from or through our borders to assail
her or hers.—N C. Journal.
The Power of Hearty Laughter.—The
following incident comes to us r thorougly
authenticated, though wc are uot at liber
ty to publish any names: A short time
since two individuals in this city were in
one room sick, one with brain fever and the
other with an aggravated case of mumps.
They were so low that watchers were nee
ded every night, and it was thought doubt
ful if the one sick of the fever recov
ered. A gentleman was engaged to watch
one night, his duty being to wake the
nurse whenever it became necessary to ad
minister the medicine. In the course of
the night both watcher and nurse fell
asleep. The man with the mumps lay
watching the clock, and saw that it was
time to give the fever-patient his portion.
He was unable to speak loud or to move
any portion of his body except his arms,
but, seizing a pillow, he managed to strike
the watcher in the face with it. Thus sud
denly awakened, the watcher sprang from
his seat, falling to the floor and awakening
both the nurse and fever-patient. The in
cident struck both the sick men as very
ludicrous, and they laughed most heartily
at it for fifteen or twenty minutes. AVhen
the doctor came in the morning he found
his patients vastly improved—and he had
never known so sudden a turn for the bet
ter—and they are now both out and well.
Who sav6 laughing is not the best of medi
cines?—New Haven Palladium.

So said Abraham Lincoln in one of his
speeches on his way to the Federal Capi
tal of the United States. There is some
thing ineffably stupid and heartless in tbe
remark. Tbe North has lost, by his elec
tion, hundreds of millions of dollars. At
various manufacturing and other establish
ments in the non-slaveholding States, one-
half of the employees have been discharged
and many of them are without the means
of support. The numbers who have been
thrown out of business, whose hopes have
been laid waste, and whose distress press
with deadly weihht upon thorn in conse
quence of his black party’s triumph, are
counted by tens of thousands, and yet “no
body is hurt.” We can scarcely imagine
that Mr. Lincoln is as mentally stupid ot
morally depraved as that speech would in
dicate. He desires, peihaps, to bolster up
his character, and the declarations of his
party prior to the election, that his triumph
would inaugurate a reign of peace, good
will and universal prosperity. Hence his
tongue uttered fwhathis head denied)
these deceptive words “there is no crisis,”
“nobody is hurt.” We scarcely see a
nnmber of any Northern paper, Democrat
ic. Black Republican, religious, indepen
dent, neutral or literary, but what admits
that there is a crisis—that there is danger
—that immense distress prevails. Lincoln
will see with a different visiou, and be
startled with many a woe-begone complaint
long before the honeymoon of office ex
pires. He will be apt to deem it tbe worst
and most perplexing moon of bis life. He
has a heavy account to settle with his own
people which will become terrific if he shall
be insane enough, to open a war-leger
with the Confederate States of America.
The Two Presidents.—Davis and Lin
coln were both born in Kentucky, in 1808
and 1800 respectively—both left their na
tive State in childhood's days; one emigra-
grated North, the other South; both served
in the Indian wars ofthe West; both com
menced their political careers about the
same time, being President Electors in the
election of 1S44—Davis for Polk, and Lin
coln for Clay—both elected to Congress
about the same time, ’45 or ’46, and were
in the same year, and almost the same day,
called to preside over their respective
Governments—one as President of the
United States, the other President of the
Confederate States of America. One the
rock upon which a nation has split, the
other the corner-stone of a new Republic.

The Latest Invention is a sleeping car
cap. It consists of a small velvet of cloth
skull cap, ornamented according to the
taste of the wearer, with a couple of long
straps attached to each side of the cap.
When the traveller becomes wearied or
sleepy, lie or she puts onthe cap and at
taches the straps, by meaus of brass hooks
to the back ofthe seat next forward of the
traveller, and then leans back composedly,

Moorish Standard or Female Beauty.—
The Moorish lady has but one object in
life—that of getting as fat as she possibly
can. The more flesh she makes the bet
ter is she pleased, as the Algerians look
upon beauty in a particularly solid point
of view, judging it a great measure by
the comparative number of pounds it may
contain. The larger her proportions, the
more chance has the Mauresqe bride or
wife of securing her husband’s affection—
a by no means contemptible consideration
iu a country where wives form a staple ar
ticle of commerce.
Difference in Wives.—It is astonish-
iDg to see how a man may live on a small
income who has a handy and industrious
wife. Borne men live aud make a far bet
ter appearance on six or eight dollars, than
others do on fifteen or eighteen dollars.
The man does his part well, but the wife
is good for nothing. She will even up
braid him for not living in as good style
as his neighbors, when the fault is entire
ly her owu. His neighbor has a neat capa
ble, industrious wife, arid that makes the
difference. His wife, on the contrary, is a
whirlpool, into which a great many silver
cups might be thrown, and the appearance
of the water remain unchanged.

to procure from the State a suitable arm
Mr. John W. Spain, a citizen of Brooks

pany two thousand dollars, to be employ
ed in the purchase of Maynard Rifles of

ny; therefore—
Resolved, That the Brooks Rifles, with
a due sense of their many obligations to
Mr. John W. Spain, accept with pleasure
his kind offer of two thousand dollars, the
tender of which having been prompted by
an unbounded patriotism and magnanimi
ty, is worthy of imitation.
Resolved, That this company return
their profound thanks to Mr. Spain for
this practical demonstration of his friend
ship to this company.

The Inauguration of a President of a
Southern (U. S.) Republic sounds strange
ly in one’s ears, hut there is the Inaugu
ration, and there is the inaugural to spe.ak
for themselves. The despatches from
Montgomery report the pageant on the oc
casion as the most imposing ever witness
ed in the Southern States, and we cannot
discover that any incident transpired to
show the slightest break, in the wonder
ful and impressive unanimity which seems
to have character zed this cxmnmKtmty
revolution lrom its commencement, on
through al! its several stages, to tbe in
duction, now, into office of its chosen Pro
visional Chief.
It is impossible for a man of ordinary in
telligence to contemplate that Montgom
ery inaugura 1 , without realizing that these
Cotton Confederacy people are fearfully
in earnest, and that every, word in their
Presidents address beats the, indelible im
press of those rare merits in the public
addresses of most public men,—straight
forwardness, sincerity and candor. It
manifestly means what it says.
The tone of the inaugural throughout
is firm, dignified decided. Mr. Jefferson
Davis does not seem to be a statesman of
the circumlocution office—nor yet a disci
ple of that vicious school of diplomacy
which teaches that language was made to
conceal one’s thoughts. What he has to
say, he says in such a manner as r.ot to be
misapprehended or misunderstood. Sol
dier-like, as well as statesman-likc, he goes
straight to the maik, and every mark he
makes tells.
We are afraid, however, that it will
scarcely do for the Express to say anoth
er wotd in commendation even of the lit
erary style of this arch “Traitor” of a con
federacy of “traitors and rebels,” all of
whom, it the lamb-like suggestions of our
good friends of the Tribune and Courier
are to be carried into effect, are but pre
paring their necks for the halter. Yet we
cannot forget that these traitors and reb
els were once our countrymen; we cannot
forget that the arch traitor and rebel, the
Provisional President has a name and a
fame which we cannot, as lovers of our
o»ce glorious Republic, give up an inter
est in without some betrayal of weakness.
We cannot forget that this same Jeffer
son Davis bore aloft the star-spangled
banner in the hottest of the fight at Buena
Vista, and did more, perhaps, than any
other gallant heart on that hotly contest
ed field, to turn the conflict to the right
side, when all seemed to be lost. We
cannot forget that this man’s blood was
shed there to uphold the glory of our
country, while many who are* ncOv de
nouncing him as a rebel or a traitor were
at a safe distance—and while these mem
ories of the past are crowding npon us,
we must be forgiven an indisposition to
join our Republican friends in placing the
halter around his neck, and the necks of
his fellow-conspirators, rebels, traitors,
etc., etc.
In one respect we must confess we are
sadly disappointed with this address. It
affords little encouragement for the hope
that its author will favor the policy of re
construction.

We have had a dim idea that Lincclr,
despite his objectionable politics, was an
able and shrewd man, but we have been
convinced by tbe report of his speeches,
made on his way to Washington, that he
is not “smart.” Nothing can be found in
all tbe heterogenous mass of American Or
atory, more inane or foolish than some of
his speeches reported by telegraph. They
remind us of tbe speeches of that interest
ing individual, Mr. Merryman at a Circus,
when about to jump on his high-mettled,
but raw-boned courser. Think of the
President elect declaring, while the Union
is being rent to fragments, that “nothing is
going wrong;” that while every interest of
the country is suffering, and there is not a
man in it who is not poorer this day than
he was four months ago, Lincoln should tell
the crowds who assemble to greet him that
there is nothing that “really hurts anybody
nobody is suffering.” Why, the man is a
fool, or worse, he is a knave, and thinks
his auditors are fools.— Chronicle if Sen.
