GEUNINE VEGETABLE PILLS.

WINNIE, which TRIES ALL THINGS, has
thoroughly established the inesti-
mable value oil these Pills as cathar;ic,
ambitious and detergent medicine. 1t
lis now TWELVE YEARS since DR.. Peters
gave them to the world, and their reputa-
ton, founded On his long experience, still
continues to increase. The annual sales,
which, during the first year, amounted
to one hundred thousand boxes, have, dur
ling the past year, exceeded ten times that
amount, and the market for them, once
confined to few states, now comprise
not only the entire Union, but Canada,
New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and the
West Indies. They may justly be term
ed the great household Medicine of the
South and West. No other Pills have ev-
er been so widely patronized in those re-
gions. They are purely vegetable in their
nature, and so mild that they may be Civ
en- with perfect safety even to an infant.
BALLARD 81 CONVICTION, are the
only authorised agents for the sale of Pc
ters' Genuine Pills, Liberty, and JOHN
SOJOURNER, Rose Hill, Miss, and on
may be had OF authorised agents
in all The towns and country stores IN the
South and West.

A Voice to the afflicted.
DIR. GORDON'S

VEGETABLE ANTI BILIOUS FAMILY Pills,
For the Cure of Bilious Fever, Yellow
Fever, Remiltent and Intermittent Fe-
vers, lnhammatory, Nervous aad Pu-
trid Fever, Pain in the Head, Side, Back
and Stomach, Lungs, Liver, Kidneys,
Throat and Chest; Dropsy, Scro(ua,
Syphilis, Sick Headache, Rheumatism,
ChoIic, Dyspepsia, Mysteries, Low Spir-
its.
DR.. GORDON'S PILLS are truly the
sick mans friend. No Traveller or Fam
lily should be without them. Their time
ly administration will prevent much pain
and suffering, and save many valuable
lives.
These Pills were compounded by DR..
Gordon after years of study and careful
observation upon the nature of different
medicines, and the effect which they pro-
duce upon different constitutions in vari-
Gus hrms Of disease They have been
extensively used by some of GU: most en-
ineni Physicians, and by many private
families for several years; and such has
beer the satisfaction which they have
given, that it is firmly believed that the
vegetable kingdom does not furnish any
materials for purgative medicine, which
surpasses for general use, those OF which
these pills are composed. They do not
cantain Calomel, Mercury or any mineral
preparation; but are composed entirely of
concentrated vegetable extracts, carefully
prepared and so combined as to be Certa n,
Safe and Easy In their operation, should
it be otherwise the stomach and bowels
contain foul aud acrid bilious matter
showing great necessity for purgatve
medicine.
These Pills do not require particular
attention 10 diet or drink; and may be ia
iAeu at ell times when most convenient
without the fear Of increased inability to
take cold,
The Bowels being the principal channel
through which great portion of the i'm
Ipurites ofthe system are discharged, it is
evident that whatever acts benefcially
on them must be conducive to health
And as the Bowels are the most effectual,
and in fact, almost the only way by which
a general impression can be made upon
the system, it is perfectly reasonable to
suppose, that nearly all diseases will be
cured, or at least, much benefited by q
judcous use of purgative medicines. lfa
physician is called to patient, what is
the first thing done? He prescribes dose
or two Of purgative medicines; and then,
after day or two, if the patient is no
better, he gives him another dose Of pur-
gatve medicine, and so on; doing some
other little things-but the main reliance
for cure is upon the effect produced by
purgatives medicines. Therefore if you
are sick, delay not, but take lew doses of
Dr.. Gordon's Vegetable Family Pills and
be again restored to health,--Price, 25
cents per box.
For sale by BALLARD & COVlNG-
TON, Liberty, and JOHN SOJOURNER,
Rose Hill, Miss, and on enquiry may be
had of authorized agents in all the towns
and country stores in the south and west.

rejoicing, therefore we judged they had
not the first cause for justification. Thai
night was the first sound mapping tha
had been done in the fort for six nights
The next morning at daylight the enc
my's batteries opened on US as usual, we
laying low, as our cannon ammunition
was nearly exhausted @lVing them now
and then "crowder" to let them know
that the degenerate sons Of Washing
ton" were not all dead yet. At l O'Clock
we heard Gen. Taylor open again and
from that till o'clock the battle ragged
and coming closer almost evesy shot
The General was driving them be4s hin
in the chaparal at the point Of the bayo
net, About half mile in our rear VIC
saw their cavalry retreating for the ferry
to recross the river at Matamoras, and
they were in utter confusion; we turned
one OF our 10 Founders to bear on the
mass and gave them "bljzzard" to helE
them along.
Then you should have heard the lout
huzzas that went up from this little spot
| sprang upon the walls near our regimen
tai flag and requested silence. Every
thing was still az death, Says "three
cheers, all together, for the star spangled
banner" 1t was given in full blast; Mat
amoras heard the shout, and then and not
till then every gun from the enemy ceased
its fire.
The enemy say they had 6000 in the
fight, but from the returns of tle regi.
ments which we have found on The field
there must have been 1853 of them, We
had 1900 engaged in the battle, about 500
forming the reserve. All Gen. Arista's
papers and baggage have been taken, sill.
yer plate in abundance. The loss taken,
wounded and misSingl Of the enemy
amounts to about 1000; among the pris.
oners we're Gen. La Vega and II officers.
Nine pieces Of cannon were taken,--7 out
Of the nine were loaded; this shows you
how tightit was. Gen. T. captured more
muskets from the enemy than we had in
the fight against them-the biggest pile
Of ammunition you ever saw, 400 spIen-
did mules, and baggage Of all kinds enough
to load the steamer "Harney." We have
lost about $50 killed and wounded--4
officers killed. 9 wounded. Gen. /. left
day before yesterday for Brazas to BRING
up his mortars, which we understand have
arrived. He will also organize the vol.
unteers expected. We look for him to.
night and so soon as he arrives we shall
commence operations against Matamoras,
and we will have it or faint in our t.aces
1t is my opinion that we have crippled
them SO by the loss of their cannon, mus
kets and ammunition that they will be
forced to TO retreat to Cormareo sc
miles from here, or Monterey, [l0S, but
from indications they may be terrifying
city and preparing TO give US a street
fight: let it be so--we are prepared for
any event. The Anglo-Saxon never can
acknowledge the corn to the cross OF ne
gro and Indian. Some of US will get our
pates cracked, but it is our profession.
Neve rtheless mark what | say--unIess
everything we demand is granted, our
banner will in few days wave from the
walls Of Matamoras.
