VIt is often Stated that if the North had
adopted the Crittenden proposition, the re-
bellion would have been prevented. In =
Speech recently made by Andrew johnson, he
alluded to this matter as follows:
"'But If you had given us the Crittendeu
compromise the Union would have been
saved, is the cry that has been raised. They
say that by refusing the Crittenden compro-
mise the country has been involved in o re-
bellion. But how does the fact stand? Six
southern Senators, when the vote stood
twenty-three to twenty-five, refused to vote,
violating the rules of the Senate, and allow
ing Clark's amendment to be adopted, thus
defeating the Crittenden resolutions, and
then they telegraphed to the South that all
was lost. You see that the South itself reject.
ed the Crittenden compromise. The object
Of the party was to divide the government"
Andrew johnson is Southern democrat and
Shareholder and when the Crittenden propo.
sitions were before the U. s. Senate, he was
member Of that body, being one Of the
Senators from Tennessee.

Gen Banks official dispatches, and SG3,75S
in specie. Among her passengers ure Coils
Butler and Morton, and o few other officers.
Back New Orleans papers contain few
additional items, Us follows:
A bottle containing dispatch from Far

says: "All is we'll, VIC lost one marine killed
two of tho crew wounded, Albatross los,

The Monongahela, with Gen. Banks and
staff, and Capt. Alden on board, took po
sition below Port Hudson on the 10Th, and
fred quite number of her 200 pound shells
plump into the rebel batteries.
A captain and some thirty rebels havc been
captured. The captain reports that Farragut
lay five miles above Port Hudson all day
Sunday. and that tho Hartford received no
damage. Subsequently Farragut wentup
the river. r.
A detachment of our land forces had been
up to, directly opposite Port Hudson.
The blockade of Galveston harbor is still
rigid. The Harriet Lane is still in the barbor,
and her being ironcased is mere superstition.
A successful cavalry expedition under Capt.
Perkins had been made from Brashear City
considerable distance into tho rebel lines.
He engaged rebel force and had brilliant
fight, charging them with sabre, and chased
them eight miles. killing ten and wounding
twenty rebels, beside capturing fOuteen hor-
SEES with their equipments, without losing
single man. Capt. Perkins had his horse
shot from under him while capturing rebel
lieutenant.
Several schooners had arrived at Now Or.

rebels. They state that q mcrcilcss conscrip-
ton is enforced, and reign Of terror and

"Thc project Of an attack on Charleston

HARVEY SIcKLER. ESQ the able editor o
the Tunkhannoek PAL Democrat, publishes
the following in his issue of 3Oth October
1861 (:
We deem it due to Mcssrs. j. G. Aver 4
Co., and tho public, to make known our OK
pericncc with the use of their Ext. Sarsapa
ailla in our family, by starting the circum
stances under which it was taken and it
effects.
When our only child, now in his thirt
year, was about eight months old, sore mp
pcared first in small pimples on his forehead
over his nose. These rapidly increased ant
uniting formed 1oathsome, virulent sore
which finally spread over his forehead ant
face, not even excepting his cyelids, which
became so swollen that his Dyes were closed
We called sklful physician, who admins
tered the usually prescribed remedies. A
solution of nitrate of silver was applied unit
the mass of corruption which covered his en-
tire face turned jet black. The sore again
burst through the scorched and artificial skin
formed by this solution. Meanwhile many
remedies wero employed without any appa'
rent benefit. For fifteen days and nights he
was constantly held by his parents to keep
him from tearing open with his hands the
corrupt mass which covered his face.
Everything having failed we were induced
by tho high recommendations Of Ayers Sar.
saparlla for the cure of Scrofulous disease
to give it trial. In his treatise on Scrofula
DR.. Aver directs mild solution of Iodidc
of Potash to be used as wash while taking
the Sarsaparilla and it was faithfully applied.
Before one bottle of Sarsaparila had been
given the sore had lost much of its virulence
and commenced to heal. Another bottle
effected an entire cure, and the general pre-
diction that the child must die was contra
dicted. His eyelashes which came out, grew
again, and his face is left without scar, as
smooth as anybody's. 1t is unnecessary for
me to state in how high esteem we hold Ayers
Sarsaparilla.
