Chlorosis Green Sickness Delicate girls who are approaching the age of womanhood are usually subject to this disease. They are pale because the blood is weak and watery. Their complexion has a sickly greenish cast which gives the disease its name. They have no vitality and if exposed to any unusual excitement, excessive labor or cold dampness are liable to contract some disease that will disastrously effect their whole future lives. It is a most critical period. The right remedy to relieve this condition and bring back the rosy hue of health is DR. SIMMONS Squaw Vine Wine It is a palatable remedy, a fine, pleasant tasting medicine. Its agreeable flavor, however, is no criterion of its efficacy, it does the work expected of it more promptly than the harsh, bitter tasting medicines. It begins the restorative process with the first dose and if used for a reasonable period, the misery, weakness and pallor disappear, the spirits rise, the appetite becomes good, the sleep sound and restful and the thin, vitiated blood is revitalized and goes coursing through the veins, carrying new life, strength and energy to all parts of the body.

I, 7th Pennsylvania Cav alry, Inspector Ist Brigade, 2nd Cavalry Division, Army of the Cumberland. September 3—Saturday, Charleston. Percy rested last night very well. Today’s Charleston Courier contains the news of the nomination for presi dent and vice-president of the United States on Democratic ticket, of Mc- Clellan and Pendleton, with the plat form of the party. The Courier also says an exchange of non-combatants (surgeons, etc.) takes place in the harbor today. September 4—Sunday, Charleston. Nothing of any importance to chron icle today. September s—Monday, Charleston. Today’s Charleston Courier contains the glorious news that Atlanta is ours. Sherman instead of falling back be yond the Chattahoochee, etc., as an nounced by the Rebel Press has exe cuted a brilliant flank movement around the left flank of Hood’s army ar.d after taking position across the Macon R. R. at Jonesboro (22 miles below' Atlanta) and whipping two corps sent against him, has ousted the rebel army out of Atlanta. Hood in his official dispatch says he was compelled to blow up his supplies of ordinance in Atlanta and to burn his commissary stores. Today Che draft takes place in the north. When this new levy is in the field, then and not till then will I look for a general exchange. It would be bad policy for our government to con sent to a general exchange while the two great campaigns are in progress. Our men, thirty or forty thousand, are not in condition to take the field for one or two months at least after ex change while the rebel prisoners would return hale and hearty and be fit to take the field at once. September 6—Tuesday, Charleston. Last night Percy took two grains of opium and slept well. His leg is heal ing up quite fast. Among the non-combatants sent north a few days ago, I noticed the name of Seth G. Clark, Chaplain 10th Ohio Cavalry, taken prisoner same day with me. September 7—Wednesday, Charleston. Another considerable storm last night and during the night heavy can nonading. Wrote to Dr. Sheik. September B—Thursday, Charleston. Last night and this morning the weather was quite cool, decidedly fall like. Charleston papers this morning report the arrival of over six hundred rebel officers on Morris Island. Fir ing today has totally ceased, not a shot have we heard since six o'clock this morning. Dr. Todd reports that a flag of truce boat went. out this morning. Hope an exchange will be effected. During the night shots were fired. September 9—Friday, Charleston. Very little firing today; nothing new in hospital. September 10—-Saturday, Charleston. Firing last night as brisk as usual * STONERS SCHOOL HOUSE. * • ••••••••• * • Mr. W. J. Biddy and family, of this place, spent Thursday night with their aunt, Mrs. Jim Goss, of Oakdale.

Uimsey made a business trip to Cartersville one day last week. Mr. Vernon Klmsey and Miss Lyda Riggins attended singing at Pettits Sunday, and report a nice time. again. Percy’s leg quite painful this afternoon. About 9 o’clock this even ing forty sick prisoners came to the hospital for admittance, but were ail sent back to town again, excepting three, there being no more room in the hospital. They stated that they bad just arrived from Andersonville with some say, eighteen hundred oth ei s, and some say four thousand. The rebel government it seems no longer considers even Andersonville as a s' : .fe place for the confinement of prisoners. These tell great stories of their terrible wretchedness and suffer ing at Andersonville. September 11—Sunday, Charleston. Preaching by a rebel Chaplain this afternoon. Capt. McVane Bth New York Cavalry died today. September 12—Monday, Charleston. The sick men from Andersonville (37 of them) sent away Saturday night, returned again today and were received. One of them died this morn ing. September 13—Tuesday, Charleston. The arrival of the fall season be comes more and more perceptible. Last night was quite cool, as cool T think nearly, as the corresponding season in Pennsylvania. Percy’s leg is undoubtedly improving yery fast, though some of his nights are very restless. Lieut. White, of Erie, Pa., died to day, downstairs. September 14—Wednesday, Charleston September 15—Thursday, Charleston. Lieut. White, 4th Ohio Cavalry, cap tured same day with me came from workhouse today to hospital with in termittent fever. September 16—Friday, Charleston. Another man from Andersonville died in our ward last night and during (he day still another, besides one in ward C. Wrote a letter to Brother Lew (and for money). September 17 —Saturday, Charleston. Another poor fellow from Ander sonville passed to his long home last night. Ward A contains now seventy five patients; ward B, about sixty; ward C, about sixty and ward D, twelve or fifteen; in all about two hundred or more. The firing on the city last night and today was unus ually rapid, and during the afternoon several large fires broke out in the city, seemingly the result of the shelling. September 18—Sunday, Charleston. This morning two more unfortu nates from Andersonville, breathed their last, one in our ward and one in ward B. Another fire in the city this morn ing. September 19—Monday, Charleston. Last night about 10o’clock, thir ty-one patients arrived from the Race Course, all Andersonville men; one of them died on the porch before beds FIVE MINUTE CURE IF STOMACH IS BAD When “Pape’s Diapepsin” Reaches Stomach all Indigestion, Gas and Sourness Disappears. You don’t want a slow remedy when your stomach is bad —or an uncertain one —or a harmful one —your stomach is too valuable; you mustn’t injure it with drastic drugs. Pape’s Diapepsin is noted for its speed in giving relief; its harmless ness; its certain unfailing action in r?gulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs. I;s millions of cures iu indigestion, dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomacu trouble has made it famous the world over. Keep this perfect stomach docjo’ iu your home —keep it handy—get a large fifty-cent case from any drug store and then if anyone should eat something which doesn’t agree with them; if what they eat lays like lead, ferments and sours and forms gas; causes headache, dizziness and nau sea; eructations of acid and undigest ed food —remember as soon as Pape’s Diapepsin comes in contact with the s’omach all such distress vanishes Its promptness, certainty and ease in overcoming the worst stomach dis orders is a revelation to those who tiy it.

Charleston Mercury this morning con tains the announcement that Sherman and Hood had arranged for the ex change of two thousand prisoners of their respective armies; all Sherman had on hand at the time. Were we not in the hospital, we might hope to be among the number. September 20—Tuesday, Charleston. Today one month ago we were cap tured, and today three months ago Capt. Newlin was taken prisoner. Last night two more prisoners died, one in our ward and one in ward C, both from Andersonville and another during the morning in ward B. September 21—Wednesday, Charleston Four men (out of a dozen) admit ted to the hospital yesterday from An dersonville, died last night in our ward. Diarrhoea and scurvy are the principal diseases. This morning a; daylight the ten days’ truce between Sherman and Hood ends. We may now look for activity again in our old army. How I wish T was with it again. Iver/ much fear however that our exchange is still far in the future. By the laws ci the rebel government our negro soldiers who have been slaves and their officers, are not to be consider ed prisoners of war, but when captur ed are to be turned over to the gover nors of different states, the negroes tc their owners or claimants and the officers to be tried on charge of in citing insurrection. Our government properly looks upon all property cap tured from the enemy to be at its di - posal, including slaves. They having received their freedom, upon becom ing soldiers in the United States ser vice are entitled to protection as such. When the rebel government ex presses its willingness to exchange ah soldiers, white and black, man' for man and officer for officer, then and not till then do 1 look for a general exchange. September 24—Saturday, Charleston. Last night ten more Andersonville men were received in our ward, all of them diarrhoea cases, one of whom died during the night. Besides him two more died during the night and one this morning. The Charleston Courier this morning put Percy and me in spendid spirits by the announce ment that Sherman and Hood had agreed upon the exchange of all pris oners captured in the Georgia cam paign and that one hundred and thir ty-seven Yankee officers now In Charleston would be forwarded to the Georgia front immediately. That will be glorious. During the morning and day four more patients in our ward d.ed and one in ward B, making deaths between 4 o’clock this morn irg and 8 o’clock this evening, eight in our ward and one in ward B. September 25—Sunday, Charleston. Another death last night in ward B. Today one hundred and ninety offi cers of Sherman’s army started for the Georgia front to be exchanged. September 26—Monday, Charleston. This morning seven deaths occur red, three in our ward and four in ward B. One of those in our ward was pronounced by the surgeons un mistakeably yellow fever. With Percy White and two other officers address ed a communication to the Provost Marshall in town with reference to our exchange. Expect an answer to morrow. This afternoon two more deaths occurred in our ward, making nine altogether today in the two wards. (To be Continued.) A PROCLAMATION. GEORGIA: By John M. Slaton, Governor of said State.
