GsA-During oar visit to Lowell We were
shown through the Laboratory of our cclebra-
ted countryman, DR.. ]. C. Aver. Scarcely could
we have believed without proof what is seen
there beyond disputing.
They make a barrel of solid Pills, about 15,-
! 900 doses, and three barrels of Cherry Pecto-
raj, 12O,0 900 doses, per diem. To what an in
| conceivable amount Of human suffering does
this point 10000 doses dayl Fifty mil
lions of doses per year,! What acres and
| thousands Of acres of sick beds does this spread
before the imagination! And what sympathies
and woe! True, not all of this is taken by
the very sick, but alas, much of it is. This
Cherry Drop and this sugared Pill are to be
the Companion of pain and anguish and sink
ing sorrow--thc Inheritance our mother Eve
bequeathed to the whole family of man. Here
the infant darling has been touched too early
| by the blight that withers half our race Its
little lungs are affected, and only watching
and waiting shall tell which way its breath
shall turn. This red drop on its table is the
talisman on which its life shall hang. There
the blossom of the world just busting into wo-
manhood is stricken also. Affections most as
! siduous care avails not, she is still fading
away. The wan messenger comes nearer and
nearer every week. This little medicament
shall go there, their last, perhaps their only
hope. The strong man, has planted in his vi
tails, this same disease. This red drop by his
side is helping him wrcstle with the inexora-
bic enemy; the wife of his bosom and the cher
ubs of his heart are waiting in sick sorrow
and fear lest the rod on which they lean, in
! this world, be broken.

More About the Cape Hatteras Affair.
WASHINGTON. September /

More About the Cape Hatteras Affair,
WASHINGTON, September /.
An agent connected with the expedi-
ton says the forces were landed and
drawn up in line on the beach, when it
was found that there were 319 men un-
der Col Weber, of the Twentieth New
York regiment At this time the wind
raised little, and it was found impos-
sible to land more troops. They pro-
ceeded up the beach, capturing one
brass piece and one horse.
The force then advanced to Fort
Clark, which had been evacuated, but
were compelled to retire again owing to
the shells Of the feet falling therein,
and they marched back to the place oi
landing and there bivouacked for the
night. Early next morning they again
returned, and the fleet commenced bonn
harding the second fort, called Fort
Hatteras, which soon after displayed
the white flag.
When the fort was entered by our
troops, our officers were conducted to the
tent of Commodore Barron, who was in
command of the forces. The Com
modore placed in the hands Of Lieut.
Wiegel the following proposition, which
was Immediately communicated to Gen,
| Butler:
1Nemoraadum Flag officer, Samjel
Barron, c. S. N, offers to surrender
Fort Hatteras, with all the arms and
munitions of war, the officers to be al
lowed to go out with side arms, and the
men without arms to retire.
(Signed) BARRON. Commanding
Naval Defenses of Va. and n. c."
FORT HATTERAs, Aug. 20.
The following reply was dispatched
by Capt. Crosby, U. s. N, and Lieut..
! Wiegel.
"Memorandum-Benj. f. Butler,
Maj General, commanding, U. S. A, in
reply to the communication of Samuel
Barron, commanding the forces at Fort
Hatteras, cannot admit the terms pro-
posed"
1.-The terms offered are these: Full
capitulation, the officers and men to be
treated as prisoners of war. No other
terms admissible Commanding officers
to meet on board the flag ship Minnesota,
to arrange details
Upon reception Of this, the Commo-
dore called council of war of his field
officers, and accepted the terms offered,
and proceeded to the flag ship to arrange
the details, after which the prisoners
were put on board the flag ship and the
Stars and Stripes hoisted.

@See the official report of Com
Stringham, of the result of the expedi-
tion from Fortress Monroe. This, we
confidently believe, is the beginning of
the end of the conspiracy to overthrow
the Government. We do not suppose
that the fighting is over. On the con-
trary, We look for some of the hardest
fighting that modern history has re-
corded. The desperate men who have
conspired against the Constitution and
liberties of their country, will fight with
desperation. tits a death struggle with
them. They must either destroy their
country or they are themselves destroyed
And now, that the determination is
= reached, as seen in Fremont's Procla-
..nation, to treat the rebels as they de-
r'erve, the confidence of the loyal people
will be restored, and the utter suppress
sion of the conspirators must soon fol-

HA-A we'll merited rebuke to the
Cincinnati Gazette will be found in an
article in another column, copied from
the old, able and conservative Baltimore
Patriot. The Patriot was never a Re-
publican paper. Was never a partisan
of Gov. Chase. But it has the loftv
independence and unpurchasable pa
trlotfsm to do justice to the great abil-
ity and stern integrity of the Secretary
of the Treasury. We believe the disap-
pointed Gazette writer is the only voice
in all the loyal States which has dared
to breathe suspicion upon the
Administration of the Treasury Depart
ment. From all others, whether former r
friends or foes, but one voice is heard
and that is one of unqualified approval.
1t is deeply to be regretted that any
pan should let his thwarted ambition
lead him into a method of revenge
WHICH, while it cannot reach its object
may iRiure the country.

About the Rumor of JEFF Davis, Deaf,

WASHINGTON, September 3--There
h as been a report in circulation in this
city, this A. NJ, of the death of Jeff.
Davis. Inquiries have been made by
the reporter of the Associated Press
here, but nothing leading to confirm
alton Of such rumor has been elected.
The statement may have arisen from
the fact that a Rebel flag was seen fly
ing at half mast over an encampment of
the enemy.

Postponement of the County
Fair.

The Board of Directors of the "Meigs
County Agricultural Association" have
decided to abandon the holding of a
Fair, the present Fall. Owing to the
stringency in money matters, thc
absorption of the public mind in the
destiny of the country, and the appar-
ent small interest taken in the matter
by the Agricultural and Manufacturing
community, it is thought best to pursue
this course.
