THE FOREST PILLS neither grippe nor weaken

plants which are as wholesome the food we eat.
CURE Is CERTAIN, and they cure without
weakening the system affecting the bowels but
slightly, except in full doses, when they purge

1T Is FOLLY to use gripping, drastic purgatives;
such drugs weaken and destroy the tone of the

presume a thousand slaves have escaped
from bondage since Manassas was evacuated.
Most OF them fed from the regions Of RsppA-
hammock and entered our Zines by various routes
some by the highways. some from the jungle.
OF more than fifty whom saw, not one was
unconscious OF the issue which sets so many
bondmen free. Some had deserted wives and
children, trusting to future opportunities to
libcrate them. Most of them were under forty
years Of age, stout. muscular, intelligent fell
lows, not field hands, but household servants
1.-The class so boastfully assumed to be faith
full to their masters "Ah, master, quoth
one, sdey tell you white folks we don't want
freedom. We don't want muffin else. We
knows all about it. Dere's more comm all de
time. More would come if dey could get heart
to leave dere wives and children In one
drove of twenty-five, observed several in Con-
federate uniforms. They said they had been
servants to officers in the rebel army. They
had escaped at the ferry on Rappahannock riv-
err, where they left the rear guard, terrified
with apprehension that we were rapidly pur-
suing them. An intelligent fellow said il we
had followed on Monday, we conld have cut of
the rear guard entirely. Their horses were
worn out aud the ferry was insufficient to car
ry them across the river. They were so panic
stricken, lnueed, mat many deserted from the
column and sought refuge in the forests.
My first report of the appearance Of Manas-
sas after the evacuation, was derived from
persons whose imaginations were excited
The quantity of property deserted was exag-
gerated. After deliberate examination con-
cluded that the whole value at an extravagant
estimate, did not exceed $4,000 To be sure
there was large mass for trophies, but q
squalid exhibit for spoils. Some eighty wagons
which were left on the premises were ruined
by use and by cutting the wheel spokes; four
or five worthless caissons were also deserted.
dilapidated construction train locomotive
was left standing ON the railroad track; the
debris of another, which had been blown to
atoms, and fragments of three or four platform
cars, were scattered about the ruined depots.
Besides these, mass of flour reduced to paste
perhaps fifty barrels of it--a dozen boxes of
good uniforms, some cotton mattresses for
hospitals, and promiscuous distribution of
clothing, kitchen utensils, some useless medi-
cal stores, considerable quantity eff half de-
stroyed tents, miscellaneous collection of
file bowie knives, and sundry forts full of
Quaker guns. constituted the entire invoice of
rebel stores which the army found. The mass
was considered so valueless that it was not
guarded, and the soldiers country people and
negroes, have helped themselves freely until
the site is pretty thoroughly cleaned up.
