With Dyspeptics everything is wrong.
Food does not digest; sleep does not re
fresh; wine does not cheer; smiles do not
gladden; music does not charm, nor can
any other joy enter the breast of the mis
erable dyspeptic. You must get rid of it,
or it will become seated and confirmed, and
life will be a burden and existence a curse.
Plantation Bitters will do away with ail
this. New life, strength and energy will
take possession of you. The damask will
again bloom npou your check, and the Uls
ter in your eye will again be as bright as
in your healthiest, happiest and most joy
ous days.

TjFttTHKU BTA’f Gl-IEMTH IN REGARD Tp THE
BOOTY .GATHERED DROUTH QAivORtiTNA.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com
mercial writes:
The threq boxes of eoHeyted .treassmfe; re
cently brought forth from the vaults of the
War Department at Washington, are the
property of citizens of Camden, South Caro
lina. The gold and silver, as well as the
principal portion of the Confederate notes
and bonds, liclong to the old Camden Bank.
The value pf the diamonds and silver ware
has been very greatly over estimated by
your Washington correspondent.
Upon thd approach of Hherman’s army
upon Camden, the citizens of the village
collected their jewelry, silver and plated
ware, and deposited the same in the safes of
the Bank of Camden. The safes were load
ed in wagons, and the owners thereof sought
safety for their treasure iu flight; but the
foragers—enterprising fellows, who were
always about a day’s march in advance of
the army—came upon them not far from the
Catawba river, and compelled a surrender.
The captors were composed of two de
tachments, one from the Third Brigade,
First Division, Twentieth. Army Corps, and
the other from the Fourteenth Army Corps.
It was the usual custom of the foragers to
confiscate and divide captured property,
but as some disagreement sprung up as to
the proper division, neither party feeling
disposed to surrender their acquired bank
ing privileges, it was decided to deliver the
sales unopened to the Provost Marshal of
the Army of Georgia. The safes were
opened bv that officer and found to contain
gold and silver, Confederate bonds and
notes, and the diamonds, silver ware and
jewelry of the citizens. By order of Gen.
Sherman, the mules and wagons were ap
propriated for the use of the army, and the
other property was boxed up and forward
ed to the War Department at Washington,
upon the arrival of the army at Goldsboro,
N. C.
You are certainly mistaken in your state
ment in saying that, as the foragers and
“bummers” came up to the bridge, they
were halted and thoroughly searched, and
the articles found upon them boxed up and
sent to Washington. No order was ever
issued to search the “ bummers.” It would
have required all the army wagons connect
ed witli Sherman’s army to have hauled
the plunder collected in one day by the
“ bummers,” and nbaudoned the -next. Nor
was this property, as a general thing, taken
from the dwellings of the inhabitants, but
it was found in the fields or the swamps,
where it had Ixeen concealed by the own
ers. Property thus captured was brought
into camp at night, and after being exhibit
ed was, in very many instances, abandoned.
If the people on the line of march had re
mained at home and treated our soldiers
with common civility, very few depreda
tions would have been committed. In
Bouth Carolina it was a vei*y common thing
for chivalrous ladies to call our soldiers
vandals and Northern hirelings. Os course,
neither officers nor soldiers felt very solicit
ous concernlner the safety of their worldly
effects.

Pursuit of Knowledge in a 9aw Mill.
—Last Monday, a German called at Good
hue, Andrew & Co.’s saw mill, to gaze in
wonder at the various and complicated ma
chinery. Among other tilings that he saw
was a small circular saw, sawing faster
than anything tie ever saw before. Its
rapid motion fascinated him; he reached
out his right index linger toward its ill-do
lined periphery, (for the circumference of a
saw in swift motion looks to lie at the base
of the teeth, and not their points,) when, to
his surprise, the end of his finger disap
peared in an instant, and rolled away to
the other side of the saw. The man tied
up the stump in Ids handkerchief, where
upon Mr. Andrews, noticing him, came up
and inquired what was the matter. The
victim of misplaced confidence replied:
“ Misther Andrews, I never Comes to see
your mills pelore. I seed dis ting going
around so fast, I takes mein vinger to him,
like dis, and—mein Gott!” In explaining
his first mishap, the German touched the
saw with his left forefinger, and that flew
off. Turning to Andrews in almost breath
less astonishment, the man exclaimed :
“ Misther Andrews, I never comes to see
your mills peforc; I see him . I never comes
to see him again !” Aud, wrapping that
finger iuto his handkerchief, he started for
a doctor’s office.
Clover. —Judge Joseph E. Brown has a
small lot, about an acre and a quarter, near
Belwood Depot, on the Western and At
lantic Road, two mile3 from town, in clo
ver. In 1867 it was an old, impoverished
sedge.field. Judge Brown had it broken
up deep with a No. Peekskill plow,
and thoroughly pulverized the soil. Iu
March he sowed it iu oats and red clover.
Tiie oats yielded well, and were cut in reg
ular time. The clover grew off finely, and
in 1868 Judge Brown cut it twice, obtain
ing over two tons of clover hay. The~clo
ver lias not been pastured upon, although
a tenant this year has supported a horse,
and cow and calf by cutting it as necessity
required. The first cutting this year, now
being housed, will reach fully ten two
horse wagon loads. 'l'his, with what has
been used by the tenant, will shqw a large
yield for so small a spot. PartuWwho are
complaining of the high price or Northern
hav, and of the frauds practiced in baling
it, will see by this that economy dictates to
them to imitate Judge Brown in raising
their own hay. —Atlanta Constitution.
What a German Says of America — A
German writer in Detroit writes in the
Abend Post, of that city, about America, in
this strain: “ Everything is upside down
here; wheat is cheap and bread is dear;
harvests are good and farmers are dissatis
fied. Knowledge is free and stupidity and
bigotry abound. Political freedom exists
by the side of party slavery; and, last of
ail, railroad humbugs and golden spikes.
This last swindle caps the climax. A lau
rel-wood tie, with silver end, golden spikes
find a silver hammer. Monstrous humbug.
Humbug is the King of America, whose
subjects are alike the ricli and the poor,
the great and the huinble. Even Nature is
a humbug, for it is now the last of May
and the trees are not green, flowers are not
in bloom ; it is cold, and larks and nightin
gales have not been heard from. Humbug!
The whole thing is a humbug!”
Another Homicide in Merriwether.
—We regret to hear of another killing
scrape a few days since near Rocky Mount.
Mr. Wm. Britton shot and instantly killed
one of his neighbors, named Lapsey. It
appears that Britton, on a rainy day last
week, invited Lapsey to go up to Rocky
Mount with him. The invitation was ac
cepted, an.l while there a good deal of whis
ky was consumed. Lapsey became quarrel
some, and had several little fusses, being
evidently very much beside himself with
liquor. Britton finally got him in the bug
gy and started home, when suddenly Lap
sey fell upon Britton with a large knife,
cutting him several times, whereupon Brit
ton jumped ont of the buggy, drew his pis
tol, and shot Lapsey dead. There was no
previous difficulty between the men. This
is the talc as reported to us. We suppose
this is another of king alcohol’s tragedies.

offered for sale, at public outcry, on the
premises, whatever claims the Bureau
might have on the armory buildings near

that the claims would bring several thous

bid than $1,635, and he withdrew the
claims and stopped the sale. The bidding
showed what is thought of the strength or
legality of the claims.

Harley’s 3'arsaparll.a anil Potash.
Maintains the secretion*, especially thsc of the
skin and kidneys, increase#-'i,u lilkn, and allays
morbid irritability of the nervous and circulating
systems, Hence an adn.Lallo remedy for debility
during or after a mercurial cou»se, and for the multi
farious variety of Fymptoms which arise, when the
health is broken down, os well as by* the disease as
hy its vejiedy. For Scrofula, it is the most certain
cure.
DISEASED KIDNEYS,
If neglected, are almost certain to end fatally, some
times the patient dies of exhaustion and obstinate
vomiting; sometimes of suppression of urine and
corns; sometimes in a sudden fit of severe shivering ;
arid sou)-times of a rapid attack of acute inflamma
tion. In the treatment, the golden rule must be ob
served, So forcibly stated by Dr. Prout, that modera
tion in tW quantity is of quite as much consequence
as attention to the quality of food. Os alcoholic
liquors,.("sound sherry of the drier kinds or small
qualifies ..t brandy or Hollands and wattr are the best.
In the medical treatment. HURLEY’S COMPOUND
SARSAPARILLA AND POTASH has proved

of abjßsTing from it a quantity of nitrogenous mat
ter sufijl>Rbit for its eouversiou into bipputic acid, ana
in this wry soluble form -is readily excreted, and ex

Without a Good Digestion
AH other temporal blessings worth
less. The dyspeptic millionaire w*ho has tried all the
potions of the medical profession in vain, and believes'
his corajdaint to be incurable, would give half his
fortune to be freed from the horrors of indigestion,
aud thus enabled to enjoy the other half* Os course
he would.
I‘eihap* HOSTKTTER’B STOMACH BITTERS
has teen recommended to such a suflerar. Possibly
he has turned from the friend who made the sugges
tion with a sneer, Intimating that he has no faith in
any “j>at«nt medicine.” If this has been the case,
so much the worse for him. His incredulity dooms
him to a • life of misery. AH the luxuries which
wealth can purchase a-e at his command. Not one
of them c#n give him pleasure. His own Irrational
obstinacy4)S his bane.
The masses, happily for themselves, are less skepti
cal. There la such a thing us biyoltd unbelief |as well
as bigotei credulity, and a golden mean between
the two, tViich men and women who are gifted with
common sjnse adopt and profit by. These are the
class that'patronize and recommend HOBTKTTER’B
Whv do they approve ilu* fomotin anti
dyspeptic and anti-bilious preparation ? Simply be
cause they have not been too much the slaves of
senseless prejudice to give it a fair trial, and have
found that, when all other tonics, stimulants and
stomachics faded, It produced the desired ellect.
“Strike, but hear,” said the Roman sage, when his
ignorant enemies were assailing him. “Doubt, but
try,” says the man wlio has been cHred of indigeslton,
or biliousness, or intermittent fever, hy the Bitters,
as lie re'ates hi* experience of the medicine to his in
valid friends. Whoever is so wedded to his own
foregone theoretics' conclusions as to decline to teat
the properties of a medicine endorsed hy the testi
mony of intelligent men in every walk of life, and ap
proved by the people at large, deserves to suffer.

Six Great Remedies
OF THE AGE.
PURIFY YOUR BLOOD.
HIKLIY’S SmmBULl
(_)f ALL the remedies that have been discovor
fl during the present age for the “ thousand ills th at
esh is heir to,” none equal this wonderful prepara
tion. Only 16 years have elapsed since the discover
er (who spent a decade in studying, experimenting
and perfecting it,) first Introduced it to the public,
and it is already recognized by the most eminent phy
sicians in all parts of the country to be the most sur
prising aud effective remedy for certain diseases of
which they have knowledge.
AH other Compounds or Syrups of this Root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul
ty, because, on being tested, they have lieen founl to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the
good' effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure
the health of the patient It is not so with Hurley’s
preparation.
This is the pnre and genuine extract of the root, and
will, on trial, be found to ellect a certain and perlect
cure of the following complaints :
Affections or tlxe Bones, Habitual Costive
lies*, Debility, Diseases ot the Kid
neys. Dlspepsia, Kryslpells, Female
Irregularities, Fistula, all Skin
Diseases, Liver Complaint,
Indigestion, Pilts, Pul
monary Diseases, Scro
fula, or King’s Evil,
Syphilis, aud all -
Impurities of
the Biood.
Hurley’s Ague Tonic.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
The only remedy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and
Fever, that is or can he depended upon is HUR
LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands
cured by using it who have tried the usual remedies
without benefit.
WORTHY OF ATTENTION.
To Dr. Tlws. A. Hurley:
I hereby certify that during last year I was attack
ed with the Ague whilst in Vicksburg, Miss.’ and
used several popular medicines with but temporary
relief. On reaching home the disease returned In a
worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant
ordered Quinine fn large doses—frequently as high as
60 grains per day, and which must have coat me near
ly SIOO. I consulted Dr. Smith, of LoilUville, and
found fie prescribed quinine and arsenic combined,
which I refused to take, preferring to let the disease
take its course. I was almost bloodless, extremely
exhausted, and pionounced with enlarged Liver and
Sp een. About this time the advertisement of Hur
ley’s Ague Tonic appeared in a city paper, and I de
termined to give it a trial. I did so, and have no rea
son to regret It. One bottle restored me completely,
and since that time I have seen nearly a hundred
cases in which it acted with equally happy results,
and would certainly recommend »t as preferable to
any other tonic before the public.

HURLEY’S
Popular Worm Candy.
As this is really a specific for Worms, and the best
and most palatable form to give to children, it is not
surprising that it is fast taking the place of all other
preparations for worms—it being perfectly tasteless,
and any child wiU take it.

JTo Jo*. Ruddle it Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
Gentlemen : This is to certify that I have been
for years a sufferer, and have tried all tho Tonics I
have heard of or seen advertised, with little or no re
lief from any of them. I heard your Hurley Bitters
highly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith
in it before I commenced, and to my surprise and
joy, before I linished one bottle, I felt a great deal
better, and firmly believe that on one or two occasions
it was the means of saving and prolonging my life. I
conscientiously recommend them to all sutterers as
the best Bitters known, and advise them always to ask
for Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and have no other. You can
use this as you think proper, if it will benefit others.
Yours, truly, Ac.,
