AMERICAN ORGAN.
Florence Nightingale,

by CHARLES SWAIN.
There's name by mothers spoken
In the lonely hour of prayer;
There's a name-in accents broken
Utter'd-and by lips OF care;
Sisters in their tears have breathed 1t,
Hearts have sobbed that spoke the word
Soldiers, as in pride they've wreathed II,
Praised the hour that name was heard.
While the wintry midnight falleth,
And the Western star grows pale,
England on that one name calleth-
Nightingale! dear Nighting llei
From the couch where wealth reclineth,
To the camp where anguish lies,
Where the bleeding warrior pineth,
Where the Grave heart sinks and dies
Seeking, finding the neglected,
Pouring comfort o'er the heart
Onward moves the God-directed,
God-assisted, for her part
As the wintry midnight falleth,
And the Western star grows pale,
Britain on that one name calleth-
Nightingale dear Nightingale!
Other names shall Fame be pealing,
Other names may upward start
Not like thine. TO last while feeling
Throbs within human heart
Not like thine-whate'er the station,
Nothing can that name efface:
If forgotten by the nation,
What could hide its deep disgraceg
While the sand of centuries falleth,
While the stars of years grow pale,
Time shall bear a lip that calleth
God 10 bless thee-Nightingale

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-
ginia Tennessee, and North Carolina, but not
on my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina to try the effect of
some Chalybuate water in that place. About the last
of the week Iwent 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 some questions, said he had been dys-
peptic and had been greatly benefited by the use of
aHoofands German Btters," prepared by ysu and
he insisted that would try the Bitters. He also
that would try them that asked him to get me
one bottle He did it, and commenced taking it as
directed, and was more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken.
After reaching home, one Of my neghbors came to
me for prescription and medicine, (he dyspeptic,)
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his He has often called
on me for more of the same kind of medicine, saying
he was more benefited by it than any other he had
taken, but have not been able to get any for
him or myself since Will you, therefore, please ship
me dozen or more as soon as possible e,,ru
