Who is Mrs. WinslOw ?

As this question is frequently asked,
we shall simply say that she is lady
who for upwards of thirty years has I'M
tringy devoted her time and talents as
female physician and nurse, principally
among children. She has especially
studied the constitution and wants OF this
numerous class, so generally overlooked
or carelessly treated by the faculty in too
many instances and, as result of this
effort and practical knowledge, obtained
in a lifetime spent as nurse and physi-
clan, she has compounded a Soothing
Syrup for children teething. 1t oper.
ates like magic-giving rest and health,
and is, moreover, sure TO regulate the
bowels. In consequence of this article
Mrs. Winslow is becoming world re-
nowned as a benefactor of the race !;
children certainly do RISE UP and bless
her; especially is this the case in this
city. Vast quantities of The Soothing
Syrup are daily sold and used here. Ii
has got 10 be common remark, Il had
rather depend on Mrs. Winslow's Sooth.
ing Syrup fer my children, than to have
the united advice of the medical faculty
of the city" We think Mrs. Winslow
has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article, and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved
from an early grave by its timely use,
and that millions yet unborn will share
its benefits, and unite in calling her
blessed. No mother has discharged her
duty to her suffering little one, in our
opinion, until she has given it the bene-
tit of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup.
Try il, mothers-try it now. ladies

Mn. EDIroR After long delay in which
we have done great deal Of marching, and
helped to fight two great battles again at
tempt to write you a few hasty notes.
During the greater part Of the Maryland
campaign we have been without knapsacks or
blankets, and consequently without facilities
for writing, but the weather has been fine and
mild throughout, and the soldiers have been
in excellent health and spirits. We are i'm
proved fifty per cent in this respect. since
leaving the Peninsula. We have marched
through a fine section of country. Every
where orchards were laden with ripe fruit
the corn was being harvested and the farmers
were threshing their enormous stacks Of
wheat in the field the whole presenting an
agreeable contrast to the desolated tracts Of
Virginia soil. You have already been APP
prised Of the part the Regiment took in the
battles Of South Mountain and Antietam. 49,
Though not in the thickest of the contest,
suffice it to say, they in every respect oonduc-
ted themselves we'll. Our losses were
slight, none being killed, aud but few woun-
ded.
We came to Hagerstown 26th ultimo, and
are pleasantly situated about mile west OF
the village. Gen. Brooks is Military Cow
ernor, and Major Seaver, Of the Sd Regiment,
Provost Martial Of the village. Details from
the brigade do provost guard duty in the
streets. The inhabitants for the most part,
seem thankful the rebels were driven from
their midst, and treat the soldiers with mark
ed respect, and many good meal Of victuals
has been given to our hungry soldiers.
Soldiers are beginning to arrive from the
hospitals, and last week the first batch of re.
cruits came, so that our ranks are being ra-
pidly filled up, and will soon be ready for any
thing that may be asked Of US.
The recent raid of the rebels into Pennsyl
vana created some excitement both at the
village and our camp here. l am inclined t,
the opinion we shall stop in this vicinity til
the rebels withdraw from the Upper Potomac
to prevent if possible future demonstration
