THE ANDERSON HOSPITALS,

To the citizens Of Winchester and
particularly the ladies l return my sincere
thanks for their kind assistance, benevolence
and hearty cooperation, in helping me to es-
tablish hospitals for the sick soldiers. The es-
tabllshing hospitals for a division of an army
corps, without receiving any support or means
from the government, is no easy task. Yet l
commenced the work without any hospital sup
plies; hence | have heretofore, and must still
look to, and rely entirely upon the free and
voluntary labors, contributions and charity of
this community. l think l have reason to be-
lieve, that will not look in vain. will have
at least one hundred and fifty patients. For
these | need nurses, food, coos, beds and bed
clothes. For many, who are sent to the hospi-
trl, are ragged and without n change of clothes.
l need shirts, socks, and under-clothing.
Let those who have more at home than they
need, send to the hospital their extra clothing.
that may keep my patients clean. tits only
in this way that | can do for the sick what
ought to be done. These sick are far from
uOLlc, Hnu no means OF communication. l.
know that the people of Winchester desire that
the sick shall. be well taken care of, and /
pledge myself to do my whole duty, and /
hope the people will support me The ladies,
who deserve and will receive the eternal graf
itude of the army, in war and in peace, are dis
posed to ccnsure surgeons, who do not have
their patients in hospitals, numbering as in the
present instance one hundred and more, as we'll
attended to, and as kindly waited upon, as a
member of a family, with q mother and sister
to anticipate his wants, and hover like minis
tering angels by his bedside. War is nothing
but horrors, and hard life and sufferings, both
to the well and to the sick. With all the Guar
tiles of kind hearts, suffering and want will be
present. TRUST, therefore, that | may be dealt
with kindly, and not be condemned for net do
ing what no one man can do, and what rea-
sonable men ought not expect.

No Surrender.

Although the clouds grow black and dark,
Though tempests gather DER us,
Yet truth and justice at the helm,
Bids danger flee before US;
And should one storm, its fury spent,
Still other storms engender,
Then let your heaven-born watchword be,
We never will surrender!
What though reverses seem to fall,
With ponderous weight upon US!
And vandal bands on either hand,
Are threatening to Ger run us!
Give to the breeze your bunting bright,
And yield not to repining,
But through the clouds, all dark as night,
Look for the silver lining.
Say to despair, from hence begonc.
Our steeled hearts never knew yon>
But welcome hope on pinions bright
Sweet victory will assure you
For fortune favors all the just,
And victory crowns the brave,
And should you in the seruggle fall
You'll ill q martyrs grave.
Be ever ready for the fight
And foremost in the battle,
To face the iercely flashing steel
And the deadly lannon's rattle.
Then let your prayers for help ascend
Up to the courts of heaven,
And grace sufficient for the hour
Unto you shall be given.
Shall southern spirits, brave and free,
by Lincoln's hordes be banded?
Say not, till every inch of soil
Has boldly been contended.
Not till our heroes hearts blood flows
Upon the CORY plain,
Will We give up those sacred rights
We re fighting to maintain.
Shall our untaught, ~marauding foe,
Who fight for spoil and booty,
Prevail DER men who, fearing God,
Have been urged on by duty?
Not while our armies are led on
By heroes such as Lee,
While but the name of &onewaI will
Its thousands make to flee.
Then let your hearts fresh courage take,
And yield not to repining,
For through the dark and gathering CLOUD
Will burst a silver lining,
But trust in providence your guide,
JEHOVAH your defender,
And make the gladstone heavens ring
Your keynote, NO SURRENDER!
