AUGUSTA. CGA.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 19.1B6&
GEN. LON&toKT AND OTHER CON
FEDERATE GENERALS.
Some tijpe siuae, there appeared in the
columns of the Banner of the South a cor-
respondence from New Orleans broadly in
timating that General! Longstreet had
been badly treated by many of the Confed
erate Generals after the publication of his
letters advising a quasi coalition with the
Radical party, and that this bad treatment
was all the more shabby since these very
Generals were just as deep in the mud as
he was in the mire. In order to clear up
as far as may be the mystery attendant
upon this matter, we have been permitted
to publish the following letter, from one of
the Generals thus implicated, which throws
a deal of light upon a very dark subject.
For obvious reasons we suppress all names,
but the author can be identified by any
person having proper claims to such know
ledge :
My Dear : I wish to give you in
brief so much as I know about Longstreet’s
unhappy tergiversation.
In April, 1867, I was invited by an ex-
Confederate officer, in Longstreet’s name,
to be present at a meeting, to be held in
Longstreet’s office, on the succeeding Wed
nesday evening. I replied that I would
endeavor to be present. Meantime, how
ever, I ascertained that the meeting was to
be a sort of a caucus of Confederate offi
cers who were supposed to approve of the
views of Gen. Longstreet, as set forth in
his first letter to the New Orleans Times,
upon the political situation of the South
and Our duties under it.
Therefore, I did not attend the meeting.
I have since been informed by two Con
federate Generals who were present (
and ) that the object announced by
Longstreet, in this meeting, was to organ
ize, in New Orleans, a Democratic Club, of
which he expressed his willingness to be
the President. The club to be called the
Grant Club, in honor of General Grant,
who was then believed by him to be a
Democrat, and the probable leader of that
party.
Neither nor approved of
Gen. Longstreet’s views or purposes, and
both of them have assured me that they
used means to dissuade some of our com
rades from following Longstreet’s lead in
this matter. On the Sunday following the
meeting, another letter from Longstreet
appeared in the New Orleans Times , which
was very much and generally disapproved
by the Southern portion of this communi
ty. It seemed, indeed, to be the death
knell of the Grant Club, which fell still
born at once.
I think it was about two weeks after this
that we were all much disgusted at learn
ing that the Massachusetts Senator Wil
son was en route to New Orleans on a can
vassing tour in behalf of the Radical party.
It is now generally believed that Long
street went up to Canton to meet him and
came Avith him to Ncav Orleans, and it is a
matter of notoriety that he sat on the plat
form Avith Wilson Avhile he harangued a
mixed assemblage of whites and negroes in
Lafayette square; Longstreet according to
popular renown having consented to serve
as a Vice-President of this Radical meeting.
A few days uj’ta'r wtii-tif »■ ibaa Jitter up*
peared from Longstreet; and from that
time to the present he has ceased to be one
of us, or to have any thing in common with
us save the recollections of the glories of
the Confederate armies.
The statement published on the 3d of
April, last, in the Banner of the South does
great injustice to the “ Confederate Gen
erals in New Orleans.” It may be that one
or two of them in the beginning of Long
street’s career in this most unfortunate
direction acquiesced in so much of his pur
poses as seemed to promise relief to the
people of the South through co-operation
with the Northern Democrats, but these
quickly fell away from him when they per
ceived the tendency and effects of such a
course, and I knoAv that the great number
of us decidedly and earnestly disapproved
an ’ deprecated his letters and his course
fr i the very beginning.
1 1 common with the whole Southern peo
ple we have remembered his distinguished
career in the Army of Virginia and at
Chickamauga, and those recollections have
made us feel regret for his fall, rather than
harshness, and have restrained us in many
public expressions of our views about him,
and have indeed prevented us from doing
any such thing as “ cutting him.”
When I first became aware of his incon
sistent abandonment of th'e sentiments of
the Southern people, his effort to organize
a “ Grant Club ” for the Northern Demo
crats, and his cordial adoption, in a few
Weeks thereafter, ofthe diametrically oppo
site Yankee Radical politics, I felt much as
I did when I heard of Stonewall Jackson’s
death—l was deeply grieved.
I have no means of knowing whether the
article in the Banner of the South was really
authorized by any statement of Long
street’s; but it has been several times re
produced in the newspapers, and he has
never in any manner disavowed it; there
fore I feel anxious that my friends shall be
assured from myself that I am entirely inno
cent of everything, but so much of wrong as
may be involved in being always, from my
earliest recollections to the present mo
ment, entirely devoted to the interests, the
rights, and the sentiments of my own peo
ple ; the people of old Virginia, and those
who were with me in the war.
I hope Longstreet, for whom I have dur
ing more than twenty years cherished a
kind regard, has not authorized of justified
anybody in making the statement referred
to; and if he has, I hope he will now make
known the name of the Confederate Gene
ral who encouraged him in his present
course, and who then cut him, for I do not
desire to have other than affectionate re
spect for every man who fought with me
in defense of our people and their rights.
At Theik Old Tricks. —The New York
Tribune and Washington Chronicle are do
ing all they can to prepare a case for Geor
gia by the next meeting of Congress. The
Times accuses the Tribune of operating in
the interest of Bullock & Cos. In the case
of the Tribune, a lust for deviltry is at the
bottom of its machinations. In the case
of the Chronicle, a bear game in real estate
speculation, coupled with innate depravity.
These incendiary sheets meet, at present,
with faint responses. We can make them
still feebler by avoiding temptations to
violence.
Grant and Lincoln. —A committee of
delighted negroes waited on Grant recent
ly, and complimented him b$ saying that
he was far more of a man and a brother
than Abe Lincoln himself.
General Thomas— The Federal General
Thomas is as conspicuous in declining gifts
as Grant is in receiving them. The Rich
mond Enquirer makes this point:
“ Now this is worthy of all praise if the
motive of refusal be high and noble; but is
it not barely possible that General Thomas
has learned' from Grant’s experience that
these ‘presents’ cost their recipient too
much in the long run
Granting the lower motive, what a smart
fellow Thomas is to make so nice a calcu
lation.
Gentle Anna. —The miscegenating fe
male, Anna Dickinson, pretends that she
is greatly bothered by love letters from
tender youths of literary aspirations and
small means. They all adore her and all
want a trifle in greenbacks with which to
start in business. Perhaps her admirers
are ingenuous Ethiopian Serenaders who
desire beginnings in the noble art of boot
blacking.
Frying Pan and Fire. —To avoid the
negro man as a suffragan, the shrieking fe
males of the North propose to call their
Society “Woman Suffrage” instead of
“ Equal Rights.” Having thus rid them
selves of the male negro, what do they in
tend doing about the female of the black
race ?
On to New York ! —The Man on Horse
back marches Northward. Fred Doug
lass has been promised a postmastership
at Rochester.

The Equal Rights Association.
SPEECH OF MRS. STANTON.
At the meeting of this society in New
York, on Wednesday, Lucretia Mott was
elected President for the ensuiug year.—
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Ernestine S.
Rose were chosen Vice-Presidents at large,
and also one Vice-President was selected
from each State. The proceedings were
somewhat enlivened by a short dispute be
tween Miss Anthony, last year’s treasurer,
and a man named S. S. Foster, who disput
ed the correctness of her accounts. The
great speech of the day was delivered by
Mrs. Stanton. From it we take the follow
ing extracts. It will be seen from it that
the whole force of the society is at this
time exerted upon the sufl'rage question:
March 16,1869, will be memorable in all
coming time, as the day when the Hon.
George W. Julian submitted a joint resolu
tion to Congress to enfranchise the women
of the Republic, by proposing a sixteenth
amendment to the Federal Constitution,
which reads as follows:
Article XVI. The right of sufl’rage in the
United States shall be based on citizenship,
and shall be regulated by Congress; and all
citizens of the United States, whether na
tive or naturalized, shall enjoy this right
•equally without any distinction or discri
mination whatever, founded on sex.
I urge a speedy adoption of the fifteenth
amendment for many reasons. 1. A gov
ernment based on the caste and class prin
ciple cannot stand. The aristocratic idea,
in any form, is opposed to the genius of
our free institutions, to our own declara
tion of rights and to the civilization of the
age. Ail'artificial distinctions, whether of
family, ■ blood, wealth, color or sex, are
equally oppressive on the degraded classes,
and equally destructive to national life
and prosperity. Governments based on
every form of aristocracy, on every degree
and variety of inequality, have been tried
in despotisms, monarchies and republics,
and all alike have perished. In the pano
rama of the past behold the mighty na
tions that have risen, one by one, but to
fall. Behold their temples, thrones and
pyramids, their gcorgeous palaces and
stately monuments now crumbled all to
dust. Behold every crowned head iu Eu
rope at this very hour trembling on his
throne. Behold the republics on this West
ern continent convulsed, distracted, divid
ed, the' hosts scattered, the leaders fallen,
the scouts lost in the wilderness, the once
inspired prophets blind and dumb, while
on all sides the cry is oehoetl “ Remibli-
' cam mu is a rami re,” tTiiMigrfPßm great
principle of a government, “by the people,
of the people, for the people,” lias never
been tried. While all men, everywhere,
are rejoicing in new-found liberties, shall
woman alone be denied the rights, privi
leges ami immunities of citizenship?—
Think you the daughters of Adams, Jeffer
son and Patrick Henry, in whose veins
flows the blood of two revolutions, will
forever linger round the camp-fires of an
old barbarism, with no longings to join
this grand army ol’ freedom in its onward
march to roll back the golden gates to a
higher and a better civilization? [Ap
plause.]
Os all kinds of aristocracy, that of sex is
the most odious and unnatural; invading,
as it docs, our homes, desecrating our family
altars, dividing those whom God has join
ed together, exalting the sou above the
mother who bore him, and subjugating,
everwliere, moral -power to brute force:—
‘Such a government jvould not be worth
the blood and treasure so freely poured out
in its long struggles for freedom. 2. I urge
the sixteenth amendment, because “ man
hood suffrage,” or a man’s government, is
civil, religious and social disorganization.
The male element is destructive force, stern,
selfish, aggrandizing, loving war, violence,
conquest, acquisition, breeding in the ma
terial and moral world alike discord, dis
order, disease and death. Bee what a re
cord of blood and cruelty the pages of his
tory reveal! The woman must respect Ills
statutes, though they strip her of every
inalienable right and conflict with that
higher law written by the finger of God on
her own soul. Bhe must believe his theology,
though it pave the highways of hell with
the skulls of new-born infants, and make
God a monster of vengeance and hypocrisy.
She must look at everything from its dol
lar and cent point of view, or she is a mere
romancer. She must accept things as they
are, and make the best of them. Whatever
is done to lift woman to her true position
will held to usher in anew day of peace
and perfection for the race. Here that
great conservator of woman’s love—if per
mitted to assert itself, as it naturally would
in freedom against all oppression, violence
and war, would hold all these destructive
forces iu check, for woman knows the cost
of life better than man does, aud not with
her consent would one drop of blood ever
be shed, one life sacrificed in vain. [Ap
plause.] * * * * * *
5. 1 demand the adoption of the sixteenth
amendment, because the present isolation
of the sexes is opposed to the teachings of
science, philosophy and common sense.
Comte, the distinguished French writer, in
his Positive Philosophy, shows clearly
that the first step towards social reorgani
zation involves the education and elevation
of woman. It is only in giving her senti
ments and affections development and an
enlightened direction that governments
can be made stable, that capital and labor
can be reconciled, intellect and activi
ty harmonized. Boys brought up with
women are more gentle, pure minded and
conscientious than those edneated wholly
by theft own sex. So girls brought up
with men arc ever more vigorous in
thought and action, less vain and frivo
lous, than when under the care of women
alone. Boys and girls in school together
are more healthy and refined in all their as
sociations than either sex alone. When
we ask that woman be admitted into the
world of politics that it may be purified
and elevated, it ift not that we consider
woman better than man, but that the no
blest sentiments of both are called out by
such associations. In California and Ore
gon, when society there was chiefly male,
and rapidly tending to savageism, women
in large numbers went out, and order and
decency were soon restored to life. Look,
too, at woman’s influence in the world of
letters. Though she was long foi’bidden to
read and write, and has scarce been recog
nized in literature until within the last
century, yet what a clianga she has already
wrought in popular taste ! ■ G. I urge the
sixteenth amendment on your considera
tion, because the safety and dignity of wo
man demand her immediate enfranchise
ment. ‘‘ Manhood suffrage ” creates an an
tagonism everywhere between educated,
refined women and the lower orders of
men, especially at the South, where the
slaves of yesterday are the law-makers of
to-day. It not only rouses woman’s preju
dices against the negro, but his hostility
and contempt for her. It was thought at
one time that the priesthood were too good
to vote, and in their case see how well
our laws and customs harmonized with
that idea. All men pay more respect
to the black coat than any other.—
They are treated like a superior order.—
The people give the clergy houses to Ijvc
in, clothes to wear, food to eat. They
are a privileged class with all the trades
and professions. Lawyers fight their bat
tles for nothing, physicians prescribe for :
’their 'families without cliargfe. They are
special favorites of the law, too, $1,500 of
their property is not, taxed. But whatoue
of these privileges is bestowed upon wo
man? None whatever. With her the
practice is all reversed. She does every
thing for the rest of the world at half
price. [Applause.] She is taxed on all
she eats and drinks and wears, and pays
full price for all her necessities and luxu
ries. This is her exaltation. But what,
say you, has the ballot to do with all this?
Much every way. The ballot is the sym
bol of equality, and to recognize woman’s
equality in every position of life is to teach
her self-respect, dignify her in the eyes of
man, and throw new safeguards around
her virtue. Let society do as much to
wards dignifying the woman as the priest,
teach the masses that there is no office so
sacred as motherhood, and that is a fouler
sacrilege to desecrate a young, ipnocent
girl than any altar o# holy symbol of the
church, and we shall soon end the gross
assaults on woman so common to-day
We judge of woman’s real position by the
facts of every day life, not by the st>e
platitudes or sickly sentimentalists. We
are something more in the ballot “ than a
slip, of paper, dropped into a box once a
year, to choose a county sheriff,” It has a
deeper significance. It is the recognition
of the civil, political and social equality of
the citizen. It is throwing aside the badge
of degradation for the shield of sovereign
ty, an unknown signature for the seal pf
the State, From yonder hill-top, at the
setting sun, with patqre in her sweet, con
fiding moods, one may learn all they care
to know of human destiny. In hours like
this, 1 have asked the majestic rivers,
mighty forests and eternal hills that in
their yearnings seem to touch the heavens
—have asked the sun, the moon, the stars,,
that for ages have looked down on human
weal and woe—l have asked my own soul
in moments of exaltation and humiliation,
if woman, who, in thought, cflO touch the
invisible, explore the planetary vyorld, en
compass land and sea, was made by her
Creator to be a slave, a subject, a mere re
flection of another hqrpan will? and in
solemn chorus one and all have answered,
no! no!! no!!! [Loud applause.]

“ Horrible, if True.”
Mk. Editor : In your issue of the 14th
inst. appears an article, titled, “ Horrible,
if True,”in which the public are led to
accept its entire veracity, while its scur
rillity as to the lady is at the same time
qualified by an if and then reiterated again
in the next statements.
The statements of your informant as to
the lady in question are but the concentra
tion of falsehood and inexcusable libel.—
She has relations in this city, whose feel
ings you seem lightly to regard in giving
publication to statements which, if true,
would brand her name with infamy. Is
the character and purity of a lady thus to
be sullied, even by suspicion, when by your
own statement you have not the proof ?
Has the press here become so Yankeeized
that even for a “ sensational article,” the
most precious treasure of mankind, the
honor of the female, is to be thus outra
geously libelled ? Has an editor any right,
without evidence, by his own confession, to
trample upon the honor of a family, and in
a breath to transform a pure and modest
woman into a Borgia ?
As to the character of the gentleman as
sailed, there is this only to be said : He is
well known as an unfortunate victim of
dissipation, and his conduct is a source of
great trial to a very worthy family. The
writer does not propose in detail to attack
his motives in circulating reports of such
hideousness respecting the lady in revenge,
because she saw fit to reject his suit, nor to
notice his baseness further than to say that
the cause of his flight from justice is ex
plained by affidavits appended below. Ma
licious falsehood, wheresoever started, re
specting the lady, would have passed un
noticed, and attributed simply to disap
pointment, so long as they did not implv
criminality, or dishonor. But when they
amount to felony most odious, and in the
language of the article, “ Horrible,” it is
proper, Mr. Editor, to refer to the enormity
of your own heedlessuess in making a pub
lic libel of that which would have remained
a local scandal. The facts of the matter
are, simply, that the young lady, satisfied
of the incurable habits of dissipation of the
gentleman, and warned by her friends,
wrote to him to call and see her, and then
dismissed him. Her parents did not then
engender the horrible “ plot ” which has
emanated from some feverish brain, and
detailed in your columns, since her father
has been sleeping iu Hie grave for many
years, and her mother was then absent in a
distant State.
Upon being addressed by the “rich old
man,” who, by the way, was a young wid
ower of comfortable circumstances, she.
properly required him to first seek the con
sent of her mother. Having taken a trip
to that State, and receiving the consent, he
returned and married her, the mother still
being absent.
Thus the harrowing tale of “ Horrible, if
True,” which has curdled the blood of this
community, and cast odium and shame
upon a most worthy and innocent woman,
by suspicion, at least, vanishes by one word
of truth. In its horrible details, so far as
the lady is concerned, there are just five
truths and twenty-one falsehoods. Mr.
Editor, are our reputations and the good
name of our wives and daughters to be im
peached by floating rumors and hearsay
scandal, recklessly published in the press,
which should be the guardians of our hon
or ? Under such circumstances is the press
a blessing or a curse? Can apologies (fr
Retractions heal wounded feelings and make
lustrious the character which has been
falsely blackened? Can you wonder if we
indignantly repel false insinuations, even
qualified by a ; brief sentence. “ if true ?”

South Carolina—Edgefield County:
Personally appeared, Geo. W. Ray, of
Pulaski eounty, Ga., who says on oath
that on the 9th day of March, 1869, m*-’
sell F. Maun, attorney at law, of Houston
county, Ga., came in person to this depo
nent At Hawkinsvilie, in Pulaski county,
Ga., the residence of this deponent, and
wished to know if he (deponent) would
prove true and confidential to him (Mam?)!
Deponent, replied : If it was right and just,
he would. Mann then said “he wanted
deponent to come to Edgefield District,
South Carolina, Ridge’s Post Office, and
there to sign some neighbor’s name tun
note to be directed to Mr. James Boat
wright (the gentleman who had recently
married Miss Stroliecker), and Mr. Kenner
ly, requesting them to come up to the de
pot, and that deponent in the meantime se
crete himself in a skirt of woods between
the - depot and Mr. James Boatwright’s;
said skirt of woods said Maim described
carefully to deponent, and as said Boat
wright and Iveunerly should come along,
deponent should kill Boatwright and
wound Kennerly. Boatwright’s horse was
to lie ridden off or shot, awl his money
and watch taken to make it api>ear thaf it
had been done by robbers. Mann said to
deponent, “It is a settled fact that Boat
wright has to die, if he (Mann) had to do
the deed himself.” Mann said, “He wo aid
give deponent one thousand dollars on the
loth of March, at the village of Perry,
where deponent, was on that day to nftpt
said Mann, and if the deed was committed
he iyould give deponent two thousand dob
lars more and a lien on his crops; (deponent
does not know if Mann has any crop.)—
When deponent went on the lltli of March,
(deponent did not go to Perry the day first
agreed on), said Mann gave deponent a six
shooter pistol and eight dollars in money,
(he, Mann did not give the thousand dollars,
for lie said he had not collaßted the money
that he cxppeipi] qt Perry.) Jfe gaye (at
Perry) to deponent the address of Mi*. Jas.
Boatwright and Mr. John Kennerly, (hereto
appended,) and repeated his instructions as
tQ mode of proceeding, adding that Boat
wright was Worth one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars'; and that when Boat
wright was killed, he (Ray) would gel,"a
fine watch, and from three to five thousand
dollars, which aiqount Boatwright gen
erally carried abqut, hint ; and when be
(Mann) could marry the widow of Boat
wright, he apd deponent would both be
riel). Afaiyj said there was a certain safe in
Perry, the number of the key of which Was
1775; that he would get it and have
keys made, and deponent would be able to
go in and take the money as he needed it.
There was from thirteen to fifty thousand
dollars at times in it. Deponent further
says, that after the interview, deponent re
ceived at Hawkiusville, from the Past Office
there, the letter hereto appended, addressed
to said deponent by said Mann; that, at
the interview in Perry, Mann asked depo
nent if he (Ray) had destroyed said letter,
aud deponent replied “ that he had,” at
which Mann expressed himself very much
gratified. On leaving, Mann shook depo
nent’s hand and wished him great success.
Deponent was to take the cars at the Saath
western Railroad, at Station No. 2,|md
proceed by Macon that night. Depofeut
did not go to Station No. 2, but went to
Haw kins villu and took the Brunswick
Road next morning. Deponent and Joseph
W. McLemore, (his friend) took the road
together at Hawkiusville, and came] on
to Augusta by Macon and thence to the
Ridge depot, reaching there aboul| 11
o’clock on Sunday, 14th of March, #59.
and recognizing it as the place desci bed
by Mann. On arrival inquired of an gro
ii' lie knew Mr. Boatwright and Kennerly;
negro replied by pointing to a gentleman
who lie said was Mr. Kennerly. Oppo
nent sent the negro to say to Mr. Ken
nerly that lie wished to see him. Depcffeut
told Mi*. Kennerly that he had a seerMto
divulge to him, and wanted his proteMpn
Boatwright’s (the father of Jas. Boat
wright.) Deponent disclosed the above
facts in presence of Air. James Boatwright,
Air. Kennerly, and Joseph McLeipore. De
ponent did not just then disclose the fact of
tlie'acceptance of the eighty dollars for rea
sons affecting himself and his companion.
The above facts deponent substantially
communicated to Joseph McLemore and
James Phillips, of Pulaski county, Ali L.
Dudley, Marshal of Hawkiusville, aim D
G. Jones, of Perry, before his leaving there.
Deponent further stated that lie had no idea
of perpetrating the deed, and that lie in
tended to get all the money he could out of
the man who had made the base offer, and
after getting the money to expose him; that
lie would not carry Marin’s schemes into
effect for all the money in the world.

It. is needless to refute other statements
implicating the lady with but a simple de
nial that any correspondence or communi
cation was held by her with Mann, after
his dismissal, or any notice taken of him
whatever. The next time that village
scandal reaches you, Mr. Editor, be not
overwhelmed, nor absorb it a breath;
weigh it carefully, and in moderation. Do
justice to our women at least, and spare
their good names from the assassination of
both village scandal-mongers and the
abandoned in crime.

Why There Will be no War with
England. —The New York Times says that
a leading member of the Senate Committee
on Foreign Relations scouts the idea that
there wiil be any war between England and
the United States, growing out of the Ala
bama claims. He gives the following rea
sons for his faith:
“ First, it would necessarily be a naval
war, for the invasion and conquest of Can
ada would be only the work of a week.
Being a naval war, the destruction of the
commerce and shipping of both countries
would be almost the only result. England
has three times the number of steam ves
sels that we have, all her passenger and
mail steamships being available at twenty
four hours’ notice as a war flotilla.
“ Second, a war with England would
cost the United States at least $2,000,000,-
000, which would eventually end in repudi
ation. Meanwhile, the incidental loss and
suffering to both countries would be incal
culable.
“ Third, the United States cannot afford
to hold the British North American pos
sessions as conquered provinces. Four mil
lions of discontented people on the North,
and as many on the South, would produce
a state of a flairs anything but pleasant.”
Gave Bonds. —Yesterday Col. Henry 8.
Fitch appeared before the Clerk of the
United States Circuit Court and gave the
required bonds, SIB,OOO, for his appearance
for trial. Himself security in the sum of
$6,000, and Dr. R. D. Arnold and Mr. David
R. Dillon each in the sum of $6,000.

Table Talk WitH a Victim of Indiges
tion.
Reader, wc will suppose you a martyr to dyspep
sia. II ydfi are not, so much the belter for you. I(
you arc, perhaps jou may profit hyth'S patug aph.
You have just finisho 1 yonrdinner, we will say, and
feel as if you hid swallowed lead instead of wlioie
some food. You have a sensation of tightness round
the upper part of the diaphragm, ass some snake of
the cons’riclor tribe held yon in its embrace, and had
knotted its coils over the pit of your stomach. You feel
supremely miserable ; and such is the penalty which
your comp amt exacts after every meal. What do
you desire? Ease, of courso. An exemption from
the incubus that robs you of all enjoyment during the
day, and disturbs your rest at night. Take, then, this
piece of information : You suffer needlessly. HOS
TKTTER’S STOMACH BITTERS will as certainly
cure all y.mr agonizing symptoms as the day on
which you read this article will be succeeded by an
other. Perhaps you are incredulous; but if you have
read the testimony of the eminent citizens, in overy
walk of life, who have tested the preparation, and
submitted the results of their experience to the public
through the press, you ought at least to have suffi
cient faith to make a trial of it in your own case. It
is a pure vegetable tonic and alterative— l he only
medicine in the world entirely adapted to your com
plaint. If you are in the habit of taking any alcoholic
excitant as a palliative, abandon it, and try this
wholesome medicated stimulant. If it docs you no
good, say so; but you will not do that, for it has never
yet failed, in a single instance, to cure dyspepsia, bil
iousness, and (heir various comitants.
