ANCIENT CITIES DIsCovEREp.-Mr. Gra-
ham, an Englishman recently returnsd
from the East. in a report to the RGyal
Asiatic Society, gives an account OF five
ancient cities, deserted and forg ,rten which
have been discovered III the Great Desert
beyond the Jordon. They were found as
perfect as if the inhabitants had just left
them, tie houses retaining their massive
stone doors. In one of the cities is large
building like castle. built of white stone,
beautifully cut. Further eastward other
places were found where every stone had
inscriptions in an unknown character res

THE OLD coNr1NENrALs.

In their ragged regimentals
Stood the old ConunentaIs,
Yielding not.
While the Crusaders were Iunging
CaDnon-rhot;
Where the files
Ofthe lsies
From their smoky night eneampment
Bore the banner Of the rampant
Union-
And grunmer. drummer, grummer.
Boiled the roll OF the drummer
Through the morn.
Then with eyes to the front all
And with guns horizontal
Stood our sires-
And the balls whistled deadly, -
And in flames flashing readily
Blazed the fires,
As the swift
Billows drift
Drove the dark battie-breakers
Ger the green -sOdded acres
or the plain.
And louder, louder, louder
Cracked the black gunpowder
All amain.
Then like smiths at their FORCES
Labored red Sc. Georges
Cannoniers,
Aud the viliisnous saltpetre
Rung fierce discordant metre
Round their ears,
~ b1ss .s s.'s .s ssss s@s.s-es
Rose the horseguaTd ciangor
As they rode In roaring anger
On our tanks
And higher, higher, higher,
Burned the old fashioned Ere
ThT ough the ranks.
Then the bare-headed colonel
Galioped through the white, Internal
Powder-clOud.
And his broad sword was swinging,
Aud his hraZen 'hroat was ringing
Trumpet loud
And the blue
Bullets flew,
And the trooper jakcets iedden
At the touch Of the ieaden
Rif1es' breath,
And rOunder, rounder. ruunder
RoNred the iron six-pounder
Hurting death.

little affair nobody is hurt, only egregiously ched.>
ed, but when you are sick, and resort to the huns
dred and one nostrums lotions, pills and sarsapa-
rillas etc. gotten up by Dutch and Yankee speculs-
tors in human miseries, you are possibly something
more than cheated-positively injured. Do you
know those foreigners? Have you any recourse
upon them if injured! If you find their stuff use>
less. and yourself imposed upon, can you expose
them so that they can be made to feel it If you
see fit to use medicines prepared by others than
your own physicians-why not inquire after South
ern Remedies, prepared by Southern physicians
and sold by Southern druggists or dealers in your
midst-men whom you can expose, and whose
profits you can check, If they cheat you. We be-
iieve that there are Southern remedies fer every
complaint. from the dreaded ague or incipient fe>
yer to a cholic, cut bruise or burn, for which no
one wants to post for the farsOf doctor. Each
family should keep some simple, effective and reh-
able relief on hand ready for moments use
We embrace the above sentiments. We believe
that there are better medicines put up in the South
by reliable proprietors that are superior 70 articles
prepared kY Northern or Dutch vendors The South
ern remedies, advertised in this paper, we have ne
doubt excel the patent Pain-Kilers and Ready he
liefs, and Ague and Liver Pills, with which North
ern vendors deluge our land. Let them be fairly
tested and if they are found to be impostions the
columns of this paper are open for them to be eX-
posed, for cheaper terms than the proprletors OBJ
tain them to aid their sale.
We learn that where the Ambrosial Oil Is known
and used, no Pain Killer or Railway, etc, can be
sold-the people want nothing else. We can say
that we have found the Oil far more certain and
effective relief of cholc and throat than those
and the oil is pleasant 10 take, while those are
severe. When those Ague and Liver Pills have been
tested Northern Pills will be sought for, In our
opinion. They purely vegetable-they give i'm

COLA to facilitate the transportation of troops the
Cult, and it will be completed in few days.
Nothing important has been received from Pensa-
cola. The supply of provisions, it is believed is
getting short at Fort Pickens,
Troops, provisions, and ammunitions are flowing
into the Confederate States numbar OF troops
are expected at Montgomery this week,
The reported reinforcement of Fort Pickens is
pronounced unfounded by reliable authority.
