IMPURE BLOOD!


The blood is the life J and when any foreign OF
healthy matter gets mixed with it, it is dis
tributed to every organ of the body. Every nerve
feels the poison and all the vital organs quickly
complain The stomach will not digest tn food
perfectly. The liver ceases to secrete suficiency
of bile. The action of the heart is weakened and
so tie circulation is feeble. The lungs become
elogged with the poisonous matter; hence a cough
and all from slight impurity at the fountain
head of Hfe--the Blood As if you had thrown
some earth, for instance, in a pure spring, from
which ran a tiny rivulets in few minutes the
whole course of the stream becomes disturbed and
discOlored. As quickly does impure blood fly to
sages become obstructed and unless the obstruction
is removed, the lamp of life soon dies out.
These pills not only purify the blood, but regen-
crate all the secretions of the body therefore, I'M

The Frankfort Yeoman of Tuesday publish
es the annex letter, which fully confirms Il e
gallant achievement Of Gen. Floyd in Western
Virginia:
The following is an extrac' Of a letter from
an eminent gentleman, dated MaysviIe, Au-
gust 81:
" From boats which have Just landed here
from Charlestown, Va, we have the gratify-
ing intelligence that TyleT's command, con-
sistng Of about two thousand troops, have all
been cut up, or taken prisoners by Gen Floyd,
excep- Two hundred and fifty, who succeeded
in making their way from the scene Of the
battle to ChareetOwn. A gentleman on one
of the boats, who formerly lived here, says be
was in Cbarestown when the whipped and
discomfitted fugitives arrived, and that they
came in with much disorder, without arms,
hats OF shoes, and many of them with their
clothes torn into very tatters. The telegTaphic
accounts Of this last disaster are studied false
hoods, intended to deceive the public, both by
exaggerating the force OF the Confederates,
and diminishing the loss Of the Federals.
When will the mad tyTant be taught to know
that toe South cannot be subiugated, and how
many lives will be be allowed 70 sacrifice,
before be learns what all the world beside
himself must now know, that he can never
succeed?

Mississippi regiment, Under Col. Barksdale,
went into battle upon the extreme left wing a
little after noon, il baying been held in reserve
until that hour, in doubt as to where it would
be needed. As we approached the battle field
tidings of Z" lost day" greeted US at every
step-8t every step, too, we met the wounded
and dying, who were being borne off upon lit
tprs-fragmeBts of regiments that were cut
and scattered to the wind passed Us, and were
psssed by US Al they rested themselves in the
shade and laYed their seorched lips in the mud
GV stream ueaT-anC these, too, gave con6rma-
tion of a sad reverse to our fortunes. You can
well imagine the exciting effect OF these scenes
upon the soldiers. Col Barksiale rode up
and down his lines and eXhorted his men "to
be cool and collected, to remember the cause
we had at stake" etc. | mean no tickling
compliment, but to repeat what all know, who
know him at all, when / say that 40 hraveT

Barksdale. With yell aud a scream his
regimen rushed to battle under an order "to
charge D-and it was d continuous order to
charge, charge l-(the msn at times firing
without orders } until the enemy was running
pe3-mell. My own judgment is that the enc

cerely believe in its truth, (and in so doing,

HIS EzceIency, B. hsg5fin, Governor OF Keniu7sy:
SIR: From the date Of the proclamation Of
your excellency, declaring the neutTsli y OF
Kantuesv. II has been the settled policy Of
the authorities Of Tennessee to respect Ken
tuckv as neutral power, and TO carefully
avoid an acts that could be construed into
violation Of any Of her rights as such. This
poIicv has been adhered to with perfect hdeli-
tV, and will be adhered TO by Tennessee, as
IoHg as the people Of kentucky will act the
part o. neutrals and the Federal government
respect their neutrality.
But it is proper that | call the attention OF
your excelency TO the fact hat each day
brings its accumulation OF evidence, forcing
me to the conclusion that the Federal govern
meHt is organizing military companies, bdttai-
ions and regiments, in the State OF Kentucky,
for avowed purposes Of invading Tennessee,
and Transporting arms to some Of her rebel
lious citizens, thus aiding and encouraging the
rebellion.
1t requires no argument to prove to your eX-
celency that this is gross and paipahie viola
ton Of the principles OF neutrali Y which
Kentucky has de Jared she would maintain,
and which, doubt not, il is the purpose Of
vour eKceNency 10 maintain fully and IN good
faith ], therefore, call the attention Of your
eXeellencV to the matter, feeling assured that
your eXcelleucy viii institute such invesliga
tions as will develop whatever action as is
being taken wiJhiH your State, and take such
steps as will prevent any organization 10 Ken

The CITIZEN SOLDIERS OF New ORLEANS.
It gives US great satisfaction to be able to an
nounce that the requisite measures for making
efficient the large number Of citizen soldiers,
wh ,, in numerous and well appointed and well
drilled companies, are all ready to defend our
city, whenever assaulted by the enemy, have
been inaugurated, and are in process of com
Dletion, by Gen. Twiggs. Oae of these is the
formation of brigade, to consist of the three
companies of the Confederate GuarGs, the
Livautais Guards, and one other; the brigade,
we are Informed, to be uBder the command of
Gen. Westmore. What is wanted now is per-
fectioa in battalion drill, the part of all our
corps, so that, in case Of need, they can be
moved to advantage. Would not a regular
weekly inspection, review and drill Of all our
city troops tend to the attainment Of this de-
sirable end Pm, O. True Delta.

Eo7. Jefferson Davis, Richu-oad, Va:
SIR: Since the commencement Of the uuhaq-
pY difficulties yet pending in the country, The
people of Kentucky nave indicated steadiasJ
des re and purpose TO maintain a position of
strict neutrality between the beliigeTeBt par
ties They have earnestly striven, by their
policy, to avert from themselves the calamity
OF war, and protect their own soil from the
presence Of contend .ng armies. UP to this
period they have enjoyed comparative tran
quillity and entire domestic peace
Recently military force has been enlisted
and quarteTed by the United States authorities
within this State. ! have or this day ad-
dressed communication and dispatched COM
missioners TO the President Of lhe United
States, urging be removal Of these trOOps
from the soil of kentucky, and thus eXerting
myself to AIRY out the will Of the people in
the maintenance of neutral position. The
people Of this State desire to be free from The
presence Of the soldiers Of either belligeTent,
and to that end nv efforts are now directed.
Although | have 10 reason to presume that
the government of the Confederate States con-
template, or have ever proposed any violation
OF the neutral attitude thus assumed by Ken
tuckv. there seems to be some Eneasiuess felt
among the people Of sone portions Of the
State, occasjoRed by the collection Of bodies
Of troops along the southern frontier. In order
TO quiet this apprehension, and 10 secure to
the people their cherished object Of peace, this
communication is to represent these facts,
and elicit an authoritative assurance that the
government Of the Confederate States will con-
tinue to respect and observe the position indi-
Gated as assumed by Kentucky.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
B. MAGOFFIN.
