The Desha and Kimbrough Dueb.—A Ken
tucky correspondent of the New York News
s.tjs that a duel occurred lately between Capt.
Joseph Desha and Capt. Alexander Kimbrough,
both of C.vnthiana, two days since. Capt. Kim
brough was, in the peculiar language of the
telegram, “shot through and through” and
seriously wounded. Capt. Kimbrough was in
the United States army, ami Capt. Desha in the
Confederate, but the duel is said to have arisen
out of events antecedent to the war. Capt.
Desha was a captain of the First Kentucky
Regiment. He was wounded in the shoulder
twice at Dranesvillc andChickamauga, and was
grazed and knocked down, apparently,dead, by
a spent cannon ball at Murfreesboro. He was
most painfully wounded in thcariuut Ringgold,
and while sutlering h'om his wound, was tend
ered the rank of brigadier general by the Presi
dent of the Confederate States, but could not
accept, the position on account of his physical
condition.
Il seems sad after so many perils and suffer
ings endured—and doubtless his antagonist also
had experience of both danger and hardship—
that no adjustment could be made of the issues
in this controversy, save the awful arbitrament
of deadly conflict.
Present to Stonewall Jackson's Widow.
Some ladies of Memphis, a short time since,
sent as a present to the widow of Stonewall
Jackson, a handsome portrait of that illustrious
general, painted by Mr. Saunders, a Memphis
artist, from a steel engraving. In publishing
the correspondence with Mrs. Jackson, the
Memphis Avalanche aptly says that during the
lute struggle, and since its termination, the
women of the South have exhibited a devotion,
u philanthrophy and a nobleness that exeels
their ancient renown. Their conduct has com
manded the admiration of the civilized world.
Their letter to Mrs. Jackson overflows with
gushing sympathy, and her reply is the moan
ng of a sad spirit for its lost mate.
Memphis. Jan. 15, 1 shift.
Mrs. T. ./. Jackson, Charlotte, N. C.:
Dk.au Madame : \V r e take great pleasure in
transmitting to you, in the name of the “South
ern Women of Memphis,’' a portrait of your la
mented husband, (leneral Thomas J. Jackson,
executed by Mr. John R. Saunders, a Mem
phian artist, who Ims himself generously con
tributed a part of the subscription price. In
attempting the likeness of one Os his country’s
greatest men, Mr. Saunders is said to have been
successful by those who had the privilege of
standing face to face Avitli him who was (tie fa
miliar companion of your life and the hero of
recent history. We hope you may discover in
this portrait something to remind you tenderly,
not tearfully, of the past, and that you may look
on it with a memory thronged with sweet recol
lections, and animated by a just and Christian
pride in the glory and usefulness of a life cut
down by your side.
Looking on these illustrious features, we
feel, indeed, as if we were, reading in them the
calm, unsettled glory of the past, and taking a
new inspiration from the grand and melancholy
eyes, a new lesson of courage and patience
from the mute lips. It is thus pictures speak
tous.' Regarding the portrait, yon may catch
on your own heart the gentle whispers of je
vueinbered love. To us, it speaks the more gen
eral words of our country’s history, tells us of
immortal deeds, and bestows on us, too, an af
fectionate memory of the past. Surely, he
whose services belonged to his country, whose
name illumined his country, whose life was
given for his country, has other tenderer
memorials than those on the eminences of
public life ; and no shrine more appropriate or
inviolable than the hearts of his countrywomen.
We have tin* honor to tie,
Yours sincerely,

Mr Dkak Ladieh : Your letter presenting
mein the name’of the “Southern Women of i
Memphis,” with a portrait of my beloved hus- r
hand, executed by Mr. J. It. Saunders, of"your r
city, has just been received. The portrait ar
rived safety by express a few weeks since. a
No token of regard that you could have e
shown me, l’or his sake, could be more aecepta- c
blc, or highly prized, or could touch my be- d
reared heart more deeply than this likeness of r
my sainted husband. With a full heart, I ten- b
dor to you my warmest thanks, and assure you
of my sincere and heartfelt thankfulness and 1*
gratification >■> possessing just such u picture. I'
I have an excellent /mit-e/eie portrait of him, e
which is an inexpressible pleasure and comfort }'
to me, and now, it is a double joy and comfort 11
to have this handsome aide-view. ti
It is certainly a beautiful painting, and does I
credit to your “Memphis artist.” Please thank B
Mr. Saunders most kindly for me, for his gene- 1
rosity in contributing a part of the subscrip- t
tion price. t
Your beautiful tribute to the memory of my <'
precious husband is warmly appreciated. To i
see him thus enshrined in the hearts of his no- t
bio countrywomen is a sweet solace to the '
wile, who looked tip to him as the joy, the 1
pride, and the comfort of her life.

The Forrest Tragedy.
J,idler in Relation to the Munler on General
Forrest's Plantation Deplorable State, of As- t
fairs among some Freedmen — Verdict o f Coro- t
iier's Jury —Forrest taken to Friar's Point for 1
Trial. I
We are in receipt of a letter from an eye 1
witness of the tragic occurrence on General
Forrest’s plantation, last Saturday, which gives
more complete and further details than have !
yet been published.
Wc regret exceedingly to learn of the lawless
conduct of certain ol rtn> negroes, as narrated
by our correspondent, and trust sincerely that, ,
upon the arrival of an officer of the Freedmen’s
Bureau, the evils complained of will he re
xnedied. ,
It will he seen that the coroner’s jury merely f
state in their verdict the cause of death, without
asserting that the murder was committed in ,
self-defense.
Sunflower Landing, Miss., } .
March 81, 18(5(1. ti
Messrs. Editors : Allow me to give you
an account ol a serious and most unfortunate ,
affair, which transpired here this afternoon : (
General Forrest had just returned, about four
o’clock, from the landing, and noticing from (
the paper that the cholera was reported in Mo
bile, went out to the quarters and set the treed- j
meti (who had been allowed to quit work at j
noon) at work cutting drains about the houses j
and cleaning up the premises inhabited by | ,
them. A freedtnan by the name of Tom Eti- j r
wards passed along, and was told by the General £
to fix up about his quarters. He made no re- ",
ply, but passed into his room and, with his
knife in his hand, commenced cursing and (
abusing his wife. The General followed him
and told hint lie must not abuse and whip his .
wile when lie pleased. The General said : “If ,
you don’t stop and shut up I’ll flail you with .
this broom;” giving him, at the same time, a
slight stroke on the shoulder with it, when ,
fom replied by striking at the General with hia
knife, cutting hint on one of his lingers. The
General then grasped an axe standing by, and l
struck lom a blow on the head which instantly 1
killed him. t
I arrived at the scene about six o’clock, and
found about a hundred of the freedmen greatly *
excited, and disposed to mob violence. 1
Afterward the General came out and made 1
them a speech, deploring the affair and stating
the particulars, and promising to await a legal 8
examination. \\ bile some of the negroes ex
hibited an audacity that not two in a thousand ‘
white men would show, the others were eon- ’
trolled t,y the efforts of some of the most in- ‘
lelligent and better of the freedmen, and they
finally dispersed to await the future. These *
are the facts, as I saw and heard them 1
The General lias sent for the deputy sheriff 1
who passed here to-day. The citizens of the 1
neighborhood are being notified, and will as 1
Semitic to-morrow, when an investigation will
be had and an inquest held. From the circtim
stances of the ease, it will merit and attract
much attention. Tiiat. it is most unfortunate
is felt by all, and by none so deeply as the Gen
eral himself.
Being somewhat conversant with the exist
ing relations of affairs hore for some time past
I would most respectfully request a suspension
of opinion on this ease both North and South
until the facts gre elicited by judicial proceed
ings.
i will now add some transactions which had
previously occurred here that 1 had purposed
writing, but have had no opportunity to mail
you. On my return from Memphis, on the
18th nit., 1 learned that during my absence (one
•week) one of the freedmen in my employ, big
•wife and son, had deserted, and, as I suppose
left for the freedmen’s “Mecca,” Memphis. The
second day after 1 had gone he refused to work,
•and for two hours cursed, threatened and
abused my partner and assistant—both ex-
United States officers. N<# wishing a difficul
ty during my abssnee, they suffered his insults
for two hours, for which they would have
knocked down a white man, or been severely
■whipped in the attempt. Mrs. Diffenbacher
then undertook to pacify him, when ho insulted
and abused her, calling epithets that would not
look well in a respectable newspaper. That
night the negro went over to Forrest’s planta
tion, and the next day returned with two men
nod four women ; the three men armed with a
revolver, a Spencer rifle, and a double-barreled
shot guu. They again threatened the white
men, and then entered our premises and com
menced carrying away our property. On '.telng
remonstrated with, they brought the Spencer

rifle to a “ charge bayonet” position, and cocked
it. The white men finally got a dead aim a
little ahead, and made them "ground arms.”
On drawing the load from one barrel of the
shot gun, which I now have in my possession,
I found it to consist of a full charge of pow
der, a heavy charge of duck shot, one buck
shot and five common bullets. As he said he
meant to shoot Mr. Tann, I judge he loaded to
kill. That negro’s name is John Wilson;
heavy set, pox-marked, formerly lived in South
Memphis. He is wearing good clothes belong
ing to me, and I hope the Freedmen’s Bureau
may arrest hint, for which I will pay silty dol
lars, if justice is done both parties.
I found such a growing audacity toward
white people, among the baser of the l'reedmen,
I backed by a mobbing together from adjacent
plantations, with tire-arms loaded to kill white
people, and noticed such an increasing disposi
tion among some to idleness and vice, that 1
felt that the good and order, the peace and quiet
of tliis section, both white and black, called for
the presence of an officer of the Bureau.
A full statement ot the fact, written by my
partner before my return, together with my
views, as full and strong as I could write them,
with an earnest and urgent appeal to Colonel
Thomas to send an officer here at once to in
vestigate affairs, and deploring results that
might ensue; as, also, a statement from lien.
Forrest and another from Dr. A. M. Henderson
were prepared and taken in person by Mr.
Miller to Vicksburg, and presented to Colonel
Thomas’ Adjutant General on the —d. Mr. i
Miller returned here on the ‘34th, lia\ ing re- i
ceived the assurance that an officer should be :
svnt. , „ , I
While many of the freedmen work welt and j
prove worthy, others are lazy and stubborn ;
and those are the ones who are most vicious,
insulting and abusive. There is no punishment
for crime here, and the vicious roam at large to
cause trouble and destruction to others.
In conclusion, I may now repeat, as 1 wrote
Col. Thomas, that the peace and quiet of this
section are in jeopardy.
Hoping, for the sake of truth, you may pub
lish this, and, if so, promising you further par
ticulars at a future time,
I am, yours, etc.,

Mutilation of the Alamo Monument.
A DISGRACEFUL SACRILEGE.
The Texas correspondent of the New York
News thus writes concerning the conduct of
some United States soldiers. It deserves and
will receive the reprobation of all good men
and true:
The Alamo monument stands upon the porch
in front of the State House in Austin. It is an
humble tribute erected by the old State of Tex
as to the immortal honor of the heroes who
perished in their defense of the fort.
It is about lifteen feet Infill, and is so situated
that in order to enter the building you have to
pass round it. With four sides beautifully but
plainly ornamented on each side; with a shield
above which are the scull and erossbones, in
indication of their heartless murder by brutal
mongrel invaders from the South. Above the
shield the names of Crockett, Howie and Tra
vis. At the top and each side, are written these
touching words, which would move any civil
ized heart:
“Thermopylae had her messenger of defeat; the Ala
mo had none.’
On the south side :
“Be they enrolled with Leonidas, as in the host of the
mighty dead.”
On the north side :
“To the <JoU of the fuarltim aeO-the tree in nroote.l thin
monument, gathered from the ruins of the Alamo.”
On the shield was the name of the defenders
in raised letters. Such was the beautiful monu
ment raised by a grateful people in the sacred
memory of the illustrious dead.
Some Union soldiers have taken their knives
and cut from the soft stone the names of Crock
ett, Btiwic aiid Travis, and instead, have insert
ed their own names. On the skull they have
drawn, with pencil, huge mustache and impe
rial. The east side of the square has been
broken in.
In all Christendom there is only one class of
human beings of whom should such an outrage
have been expected. The disappointed Mexi
can greaser who was not satisfied with the
murder of the brave defenders of Texas, would
insult the names. Hut this crime was perpe
trated by men of the nineteenth century—of the
United- States of America—by tile very men
sent to restore the State to peace and quiet.-
The men who committed this outrage wrote
their names and place of residence. It has
been under the very eye of the military offi
cers. Custer may glory in this as Hunter did
in dismantling the Washington statue. Such a
man may well have the. face to swear a people
were disquiet, under such treatment, and if they
were not, sueli an outrage would keep them so.
It was the policy of tyrants in Pagan Rome
to so insult the people as to make them seek
refuge in despotism. Texas, that, voluntarily
joined the Union, is sought to lie degraded hy
this process. The very men who bequeathed
this beautiful legacy to the Union are insulted
in their graves hy tier troops. O, ye immortal
Gods! have sueli crimes ever been committed
before in thy name?
No wonder Gen. Grant would suppress the
newspapers of the country, lest these crimes
should meet the public eye and call down the
desecration of mankind. But I defy the mar
tial law of vandals like Ouster, and scorn the
usurpations over the press assumed by Grant.

Baptist Church, Philadelphia. 1
Gentlemen : I have recently been laboring under the
distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a
prostration of the nervous system. Numerous reme
dies were recommended by friends, and some of them
tested, but without relief. Your Hootland's German
Bitters wen* recommended by persons who had tried
them, and whose favorable mention of these Bitters
induced me to try them. I must confess that I had an
aversion to Patent Medicines from the 41 thousand and
one” quack 44 Bitters,” whose only aim seems to be to
palm off sweeten and drugged liquor upon the commu
nity in a sly way, and the tendency of which, 1 fear, in
to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning
that yours was really a medicinal preparation, J took
it with happy effect. Its action, not only upon the
stomach, but upon the nervous system, was prompt
and gratifying. I feel that I have derived great and
permanent benefit from the use of a few bottles.
Very respectfully, yours,

I have derived decided benefit from the use of Hoof
land’s German Bitters, and feel it nty privilege to re
commend them as a most valuable tonic, to all who are
sutlering from general debility or from diseases arising
from derangement of of the liver.
Yours, truly, E. I). Fundall.

From the many respectable recommendations given
to Dr. lloofland’s German Bitters, I was induced to
give them a trial. After using several bottles 1 found
them to be a good remedy for debility, and a most ex
cellent tonic for the stomach.

Having used in my family a number of bottles of
your Hoofland’s German Bitters, 1 have to say that 1
regard -them as an excellent medicine, specially adapt
ed to remove the diseases they are recommend for.
They strengthen and invigorate the system when de
bilitated, and are useful in disorders of the liver, loss
of appetite, Ac. ] have also recommended them to
several of my friends, v ho have tried them, and found
them greatly beneficial in the restoration of health.

[From the Rev. Joseph 11. Kennard, Pastor of the

T have been frequently requested to connect my name
with commendations of different kinds of medicines,
hut regarding the practice as out of my appropriate
sphere, I have in all cases declined ; hut with a clear
proof in various instances, and particularly in my own
family, of the usefulness of Dr. Hoofland’s German
Bitters, I depart lor once from my usual course, to
express my full conviction that, for general debility of
the system, and especially for Liver Complaint, it is a
safe and valuable preparation. In some eases it may
fail; but usually, I doubt not, it will be very beneficial
to those who suffer from the above causes.

BS-WK HAVE LEARNED NOT TO BE
astonished at anything. A’ears of experience and a
correspondence extending throughout all nationalities
of the habitable globe, hare turned theories into facts
and established a basis from which we need not err.
We are not surprised at such facts as the following,
although the persons who writ# them are. We know
the persons nnd circumstances, hence feel at liberty to
endorse their statements:
“New Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1863.
Dear Sir: I have been afflicted many years with
severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and
hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians
and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting
some friends in New' York who were using Plantation
Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com
menced with a small wine glassful after dinner. Feel
ing better by degrees, in a few days I was astonished
to tind the coldness and cramps had entirely left me,
and I could sleep the night through, which I have not
done for years. 1 feel like another being. My appe
tite and etrengtb have also greatly improved by the
use of the Plantation Bitters.
Respectfully, Jcditii Russrl.”
“ Reedsbcry, Wis., Bept. 16,1863.
* * » ’* 1 have been in the army hospital
for fourteen moiitns-speechless and nearly dead. At
Alton, 111., they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bit
ters. * * * Three bottles restored my speech mjd
cured me. # * *
O. A. Fi.actk.”
The following is Horn the manager of the Union
Home School for the children of volunteers:
“ Havkmeykr Mansion, 57tii St., )
New York, August 2, 1863.
Dr. Draer : Your wonderful Plantation Bitters
have been given to some of our little ehildren suffer
ing from' weakness and weak lungs, with most happy
effect. One little girl in particular, with pains in her
head, loss of appetite and daily wasting consumption,
on whom all medical skill had been exhausted, has
been entirely restored. We commenced with hut a
teaspoonful of Bitters a day. Her appetite and
strength rapidly increased, and she is now well.
Respectfully, Mrs. O. M. Dkvok.”
* * * “ I owe much to you, for I verily
believe the Plantation Bitters have saved my lift*.
Rav. W. H. Waggoner, Madrid, N. Y.”
* * “ Thou wilt send me two bottles
more of thy Plantation Bitters. My wife has been
greatly benefited by their use.
Thy friend, Asa Curium, Philadelphia, Pa.”
* “I have been a great sufferer from
Dysjiepsia, and had to abandon preaching. * *
Ih« Plantation Bitters have cured me.
Rev. J. S. Cathob.n, Rochester, N. Y.”
* “I have given the Plantation Bit
ters to hundreds of our disnhled soldiers witii the
most astonishing effect. G. W. I>. Andrews,
Superintendent Soldiers’ Home, Cincinnati, O."
* * * “The Plantation Bitters liaTe
cured me of Liver Complnint, of which I was laid up
prostrate, and had to abandon my business.
11. B. Kisosi.ey, Clevclahd, Ohio.”
* * * “ The Plantation Bitters have
cured me of a derangement of the Kidneys and Uri
nary Organs that has distressed me for years. It acts
like a charm.
C. C. Moore, No. 264 Broadway.”
* e > *«., Ac., Ac., Ac.
The Plantation Bitters make the weak strong, the
languid brilliant, and are exhausted nature’s great re
storer. They are Composed of the celebrated Caiisaya
Bark, yintergreen, Sassafras, Roots, Herbs, Ac., all
preserved in perfectly pure in St. Croix Rum.
8. T. —IB6O —X.
Persons of sedentary habits, troubled with wenk
ness, lassitude, palpitation of the heart, lack of appe
tite, distress after eating, torpid liver, constipation,
Ac., deserve to suffer If they will not try them.
They are reoomlnendcd by the highest medical au
thorities, and are warranted to produce an immediate
beneficial effect. They are exceedingly agreeable, per
fectly pure, and harmless.
Notice.—Any person pretending to sell Plantation
Hi Iters in bulk or by the gallon, is a swindler and im

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS.
SOUTHERN
LEG AND ARM CO.,
MADISON, GA.
THE Artificial Legs and Anns (Urcn’s Patent)
manufactured by this Company, have met with
the unqualified approval of the most skillful and dis
tinguished Surgeons and men of science in France and
England; and after the closest and most rigid exami
nation in this country, a Commission was issued by
tlie Surgeon General* of the United States, in his
44 Circular Order,” May 115th, 1805, to have them fur
nished to each soldier who had lost a limb in the Fed
eral service.
THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED OF WILLOW,
COVERED WITH RAW-HIDE, HIGHLY
ENAMELED, FLESH COLOR, IMPER
VIOUS TO WATER AND UNAF
FECTED 15Y HEAT.
A Medium Size Arm weighs only 21
ounces., urn! a Leg from 4 to 6 pounds.
Notwithstanding their lightness they are very dura
ble, requiring hut little expense to keep them in order,
and so simple in their construction that a common me
chanic can make auy necessary repairs in a few min
utes, and so strong that it is impossible to it with
an axe or break il with reasonable force.
We imitate nature to the life, and make the limb
tlie shape of the corresponding leg or arm, and finish
it as perfectly as possible. The natural motion very
often is so perfect that in large number of eases it is
impossible lo tell which is the artificial from the sound
tab.
THE ARM
is the wonder of the age and challenges the admiration
of the world. A person whose stump is one or more
inches in length and retains a licalt-hy degree of force
and rigidity, can, with this arm, at will,
Raise the Artificial Hand to his Mouth, Forehead or
even to the top or hack of his Head,
Put on or take ott his Hat,
Carry his Valise or Cloak,
Use the Hoc, Axe or Plough Handles,
Roll a Wheelbarrow,
And by securing a knife, fork, pen, nail brush or other
implement into the part of the hand prepared lor it,
lu* can
Cut his Food and Carry it to his Mouth,
Write with Respectable Clearness,
Wash the Remaining Hand, j
Play the Violin,
Hold the Reins in Driving, etc., etc.
THE LEG
is equally as useful and beautiful, and as perfect a
piece of mechanicism as the arm. The ankle joint is
so constructed as to give the natural motion with the
assistance of the too joints to the foot, which being
connected to the upper part of the leg by artificial
cords running over pulleys, secures a proper lever
power, the whole resting upon a huff base, making the
step light, elastic, natural and easy. Persons wearing
one of these legs
Readily Walk Five Miles—Plough all day long,
Do Carpenter or Cabinet Work,
Go Up and Down Stairs, with ease,
Mount and Dismount a Horse,
And with practice Run, Jump and Dance,
With two Artificial Legs Walk two miles Without
Resting,
Drive a Wagon— Make Salesmen or Expressmen,
Telegraph Operators, Arc. \
Our workmen arc PRACTICAL ARTIFICIAL
' ARM and LEG MAKERS, three of them using Legs
of their own manufacture.

to any who have been so unfortunate as to lose either
an arm or a leg. He understands bis business perfect

on which we have seen him dance ; and we doty any
