WINE From the earliest ages
Wine has been known and esteemed one o!
the choicest productions of the earth. 1t is
rendered proverbal in Scripture. In the
present age good Wine is not only valued
as luxury, but there are several kinds
which are held in high estimation by the
medit al profession, and form valuable com
modity in every good Dispensatory. In Eu-
rope there are upwards OF fifty different
kinds OF Wine, obtained from as many dit
ferent kinds OF grape But it has remained
| for modern science and skill to produce a
luxurious and delightful Wine from Medical
Plants and Roots This object mas been
| fully accomplished in an article called DIR
Halsey's Forest Wine. From valuable
formula of Roots, Plants &c, of the high
est medicinal order, is here produced pure
Wine, equal, if not superior in flavor to any
imported, at the same time retaining all the
virtues of one of the best Medical Formulas
ever known.
No invalid can object to take thes Forest
Wine on account of disagreeable taste, and
none can take it without being convinced
of its great value as amedical agent. From
our own experience we can vOucb for the
excellence of this Wine, and we trust that
every one whose health is in the least i'm
paired, will read DR.. Halsey's advertisement
which will be found in our columns to-day,
and avail themseivs of the remedy.

PIERCE IN THE Y oCATIvE.-The Washington
correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, thus
scientifically disposes Of the projects of Mr.
Pierce for the nomination at Cincinnati:
"Next in interest to Kansas is the presiden-
tlal election. My surmses to the prospects Of
Mr.. Pierce in the Cincinnati convention have
been more than confirmed by what have heard
since my arrival here. 1t is well known that
the chief ground upon which South Carolina is
urged to participate in the convention, is to Sc
cure the nomination of president Pierce. Yet,
what will the people of the State, they who
have been led off by this toooy, say, when thoy
learn that their representatives IN Washington,
who urge them to the measure, have no hopes
of this nomination? Gratitude to president
Pierce for his faithfulness to the South, is tor
tured to serve mere party purposes; and under
the plea of party justice to him, the State is
called on to abandon her principles, when 1t is
known that our gratitude is to be defeated, and
that justice set at naught.
cit is neither expected nor intended that the
participation of South Carolina in the conven-
ton shall rebound to the promotion Of president
Pierce Her sacrifice Of principle here will be
punished with disappointment and, when fan
cying herself magnanlmous, she will find her
self the dupe of designing selt-seekers. re-
peat, and it is conclusion derived from what
have heard here from prominent men, that
the argument in favor OF the State sending del
egates to Cincinnati to secure the nomination of
president Pierce is mere Jugglery. ~
1T is supposed by some that he will get the
entire vote of the south in the convention. But
it is not So: Virginia and louisiana and per
haps others, will not support him. In Virginia,
governor Wise is exerting all his influence for
Buchanan, while at the same time counting
upon his defeat, in the hope that, in that event,
Buchanan's friends will support him. InLouis-
lana, slidell is also pushing the cause Of Buch-
anan.o ~
sz=
HEAVY RoBBERF N APALAcHIcoLA. We
learn from the sApalaehicola Advertiser that
the store of Mr. James J Griffin, in that city,
was entered on the night of the 9th inst, and
property, consisting chiefly Of jewelry, to the
amount Of $4,000, taken therefrom. A reward !

The south-western. [volume] (Shreveport, La.) 1852-1870, 1856-04-30

1t appears that president Pierce and secre-
tary Marcy are very rabid against Mr. Buch-
anan. They regard him as an old fogy, and
"hugely ungratefu"
