BY JAMES GARDNER, JR.
The Flood in the Upper Rivers.—ln our
ot. Louis papers this morning we find some ad
ditional particulars of the great flood in the up
per rivers. The last building on Duncan’s Island,
opposite St. Louis, was swept off on the 10th inst.
Bloody Island was entirely submerged, and the
water had cut a channel around either end of the
dyke, leaving that work disconnected with either
tne island or Illinois shore.
The Illinois Bottom was one vast sheet of
water, and the bluffs were reached in skiffs with
out difficulty. Not less than three hundred fami
lies had left the bottom and come to St. Louis,
many of whom were without the necessaries of
life. About one hundred and fifty men, women
and children were quartered in Sturgeon Market,
and many were camped in the vicinity. At a
public meeting held in the Sixth Ward means
were adopted for their relief.
Some distress exists among the citizens of St.
Louis. A large number of houses in the northern
part of the city, and in Bremen, adjacent to Horse
Creek, were partly under water, and the occu
pants w'ere forced to abandon their homes and
seek higher ground.
In the southern part of the city the water
crossed Main, at the intersection of Plum street,
and Second street, from Hazel to Wood street,
was passable only in boats: Convent street was
under water, up to Third, and all the houses in
that immediate vicinity, from Third street to the
river, were flooded.— N. O. Picayune , 1 9th inst.
Col- McAllister.—The numerous friends of
Col. McAllister and son, will be gratified to learn
from the following sentence, taken from a San
Francisco paper, that their office escaped the late
conflagration :
•‘The office, papers and library of Messrs. Mc-
Allister, lawyers, were saved, being in Argenti’s
building, which withstood the conflagration no
bly.”
The library of Messrs. Yale Sc Burritt, eminent
lawyers, from Florida, was also saved.—Savan
nah Georgian.
Fast Travelling.—The Augusta Republic of
Friday afternoon, says:
We learn from Mr. J. W. Meredith, conductor
of the express train between Charleston and this
city, that the trip, a distance of 136 miles, was
made on the 19th inst. in four hours, 45 minutes.
There were six stoppages on the way, leaving
the running time only 4 hours; average speed 34
miles an hour. The engine which performed this
feat was the Robert Y. Hayne, A Spencer, En
gineer.
This we believe is the fastest speed ever at
tained at the South.
From Florida. —The steamer Magnolia,
McNelty, did not arrive until yesterday at
1 o clock, having been detained by very stormy
weather, on the Florida coast. The storm is said
to teaive been very severe in Florida, and the cot
ton and corn crops have suffered much damage. In
some places on the coast the corn has been blown
completely down. Large quantities of rain fell,
and in some instances it was accompanied with
hail. —Savannah News, 23 d inst.
Strange that a Harp with but one String
should keep in Tune so Long.—Historians as
sert that Nero played on his fiddle while Rome
was burning. The coalition party in Georgia
are trying hard to amuse the people by crying
Union,Union! They use this cry of Union as
quacks do their medicine, on all occasions, and to
cure all diseases. If there was a disunion party
in Georgia, there might be some sense in crying
Union. But after the Union has been saved, and
declared by their own doctrine to be out of all
danger, it appears absurd and ridiculous to hear
them still crying Union! Union!! We pre
sume that many of them see and feel the tolly of
keeping up this senseless cry—but they do not
know what else to do; they have no principles
.to talk about. It would not do for them to say
unuch about Cobb, and they do not like to talk
about Webster since his Buffalo speech—they
are thefore compelled to harp upon the old string
of Un'on- tbis string is nearly worn out,
and they can start some new tune, the
people wiill not dance to their music, but will
leave them 19 pay the piper. —Albany ( Ga .) Pa
triot.
We understand from a gentleman who was at
Holmesville during the sitting of the District
Convention, that Chas. H. Hopkins, Esq., was
nominated as the Union candidate for Congress
for the Ist Congressional District. Col. Dilworth
and Col. Hopkins were the only candidates for
Jthe nomination. — Sav. Republican.

The Gardiner (Maine) Transcript avers that
the story of the Maine gold mines is a complete
hoax. Two Yankees have established a public
house at the “Mines,” <and have made a profita
ble business, by selling bread, beef and rum to
the diggers. The Skowhegan Press, which is
near to the scene of action, says, that gold is
found in small quantities; but that the excite
ment is got up by speculators, and is not war
ranted by the facts in the case.

THE FRENCH MIXTURE.
IT HAS BEEN a source of much annoyanco to
Physicians, that no remedy had been devised
for the prompt cure of Chronic diseases of the kid
neys and bladder and venereal affections, (Gon
orx-hoea.) To a very great extent, and far in advance
of the day, this has been accomplished by the in
troduction of the French Mixturo.
It is not only a safe, but an invaluable medicine,
roccntly introduced for the cure of this disease in
its various forms.
For the purpose of adapting the remedy to all th*
forms of the disease, and to the various peculiari
ties of the constitution, it has been found necessary
to use the medicino as modified in the forms of Nos.
1 and 2. The first for the acute, and No. 2 in the
chronic form of the disease. It is in the latter form
(Blennorrhoea) that so much difficulty has been ex
perienced in curing it, and which is by far the most
common.
For tho euro of Flour Albus and kidney com
plaints a bottle of No. 2 of this medicine is a sov
ereign remedy, as a day or two’s use will prove.
Tho sac simile of the signature of Dr. W. G. Lti
tle will be found upon the outside wrapper of each
of his medicines.

Prof. Barry, Dear Sir: —l have been afflicted with
a cutaneous eruption of the scalp, of a most aggravated
character, for the last sixteen'years, and during that pe
riod have had the advice of some of the most eminent
plij sicians, and have tried all the preparations for the
hair and skin now known, without the least benefit. I
was advised by a friend to try your Tricopherous. I
did so, as a last resort, and, to my surprise and gratifica

was the i mlence of the disorder that at times I was par

disappeared, as the head now shows itself. "With respect;.

OR THE REMOVAL AND PERMANENT CURE OF ALL Dl3-
EASES ARISING FROM AN IMPURE STATE
OF THE BLOOD. OR HABIT
OF THE SYSTEM.
AMONG the many and important discoveries of this
generation, is one whose fame w ill be written, as
with a sunbeam, in the history of the past. SANDS’
SARSAPARILLA stands forth alone, and bv its own
works proclaims its power—that mute eloquence so ir
resistibly effecting in the appeals of the suffering for re
lief. has been answered. Thousands of cases of disease
have been cured by this invaluable medicine, such as
are not furnished in the record of time. These things
are not done in secret places, or in some unknown town,
but are performed in our principal cities and public pla
ces. They are brought before the world to substantiate,
beyond doubt, the healing virtues of this preparation;
and the facts unfolded, although gigantic, are as plain
as the light of day.
The Sarsaparilla is combined with the most effectual
aids, the most salutary productions, the most potent
simples of the vegetable kingdom; and its unprecedent
ed success in the restoration to health of tlio e who
had long pined under the most distressing chronic Lt-J
ladies, has given it an exalted character—fumi.-hii
it does, evidence of its own intrinsic value,
mending it to the afflicted in terms the afflicted only
can know. It has long been a most important desidera
tim in the practice of medicine, to obtain a remedy sim
ilar to this —one that would act on the liver, stomach ,
and bowels with all the precision and potency of mineral
preparations, yet without any of their deleterious ef
fects upon the vital powers of the oystem. Although
possessed of powerful healing properties, it is entirely
harmless, and will not injure the most delicate consti
tution. When in perfect health, no effect is produced
by its use, except an increase of appetite; but*whan dis
ease is seated in the frame, and carrying fast its victim
along the path of life, then its my.-terious influences are
felt and seen; it enkindles new life and vigor, and brings
health and strength to the suffering and di.-ea cd.
SCROFULOUS AFFECTION OF THE EYES.
Winchester, Ky., Oct 2 . lf>49.
A. B. &. D. Sands — Gentlemen: I would pre
sumed to write to you. if it was not my duty to let the
public now the almost miraeluou * effect your Sarsaparil
la has had upon me. My limbs were covered with ul
cerous sores, so that I could not walk during the whole
spring and summer. In this situation I commenced the
use of your Sarsaprilla, and after taking two bottles was
entirely cured. 1 must also tell yon of another won
derful cure. My brother was affl ictedjvith this scrofula
in his head, so bad his physician told Mm |he loss of his
sight was inevitable, and 'permanent ctoiness seemed
to be his fate. Three bottles entirely rt 8 his sight,
and we cannot but recommend all similarb\fflicted to
use Sands’ Sarsaparilla, Yours truly,

Messrs. Sands — Gentlemen: I consider it a duty duo
the public to make known the great benefit I have re
ceived from using your valuable Sarsaparilla. About
three years since l was attacked with Rheumatism in
my shoulders, and also in my legs, and so severe was the
pain, that I was unable to sleep. I tried all of the best
medicines I could hear of without receiving any benefit
until, through the advice of a friend, I procured some of
your Sarsaparilla, and after using four bottles in the
course of fifteen days I found myself entirely well. I
have no hesitation in saying your Sarsaparilla is the
best medicine I ever took, and can confidently recom
mend it to my friends and tlie public.
Your obedient servant.

Messrs. Sands — Gentlemen : I have great pleasure in
acknowledging to you the great benefit Iliave received
from the use of your Sarsaparilla. A subject of pulmon
ary disease, I made a voyage to Europe, but while there
continued to be afflicted. A few weeks after my return,
I was seized with a violent hemorrhage of the lungs,
and from the debility and great prostration of strength
that followed, with the protracted difficulty of respira
tion, I am entirely relieved by the use of your Sarsa
parilla. which I consider a most important and truly
valuable discovery in tlie healing art.—l feel that I have
not for fourteen years enjoyed so good health as at pre
sent.
