Certificate of Or. w. Smith, Of Pine Hill, Rich
moad County, North Carolina.
PINE HILL, March 4, 1854.
DEAR SIR: have been a subject OF Dyspepsia, IN
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said must die. While in this con-
diton, was carried to the watering places in Vir-
pinia, Tennessee and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water to which was taken. While
on my way home, / stopped week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina to try the effect of
some Chalybcate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icine for my child and myself, There were several
of the village physicians in the store and one OF them
seemed to take some interest in my case, and after
asking me some questions, said he had been dys-
peptic and had been greatly benefited by the use Q
hHoohand's German Bitters prepared by yeu, and
he insisted that would try the Bitters. He also
called the next day at my ROOM and insisted much
that would try them chat / asked him to get me
one bottle. He did it, and commenced taking it as
directed and more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken. sau
After reaching home, one ct my neighbors came TO
me for prescription and medicine, Che dyspeptic)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case. He has often called
on me for more of the kind of medicine, saying
heawas more benefited by it than any other he had
taken, but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since. Will you therefore, please ship
me q dozen more as soon as possible.
Respectfully yours, W.. SMITH.

OUR UNION.

BY MRS. L. H. sIGoURNEY.
Our father lives in Washington,
Aud has world of cares,
Yet, gives his children all farm,
Enough for them and theirs;
Full thirty well grown sons has he,
numerous race indeed
Married and settled, too dye see,
With boys and girls TO feed;
And if they work and till their lands,
They're sure 10 earn a living,
And have pretty sum to spale
For laying up or giving
thriving family are we
No lCrding need deride US,
FO we know how to use our hands,
And i'll our wits we pride US.
Hail! Brothers of the banded States,
Nay naught on earth divide usi-
Some of us dare the ship North east,
Some. clover fields are sowing,
And others raise tue cotton plants,
That keep the looms a-going--
Some build and steer the white-wing ships,
And few in speed can mate them
And others reap thu bearded whe-t,
Or grain the corn to freight them;
Andif our neighborS DER the sea
Have e'er an empty larder.
Tosend 4 loaf their hearts to cheer
Well try little harder.
No old nobility have we,
Nor tyrant king to ride US,
Our Sages at the Capitol
Enact the laws that guide US
Rei /! Brother ofithe landed Statesl
L"tnaught on eirth divide US!
Some ftulss have we've can't deny
A f)ible here aud thete,
But our households have the samo,
And so we won't despair,
'Fwil: do no good to fret and fume,
And call hards names dye see
And W hat shame it were to part
Su h thriving family!
'Iis but Il was tie Of me to fret,
Since nature made US one
And every quarrel cut thread
That blesseed lave h2, $, .un:-
So, draw the r.is of union close,
Whatever shall betide US
Still cling fast, through every blast,
For manya storm had tried US

Lynch who was sentenced to the Pententiary at The
last term of the Circuit Court has sent back word to
his lawyers, that he likes his quarters very much
that the fare is good and the work light. This is
highly complimentary to the State, and the keeper
but we hope his puff will not induce others to fol
low his examplein order to be eligible to the
good quarters The narrow escape he made of tn,
