The Charleston Courier makes timely sug-
gestion in recommending the attention of our
government to the naturalization and cultiva-
ton of Calsaya, for the preservation OF the
health of our soldiers. This article has Pc
culiar effect upon the liver, and guards the
system against disease by exposure and irreg-
ular diet. 1t is said that the great success OF
the Plantation Bitters of DR.. Drake, which pre-
vious to our unhappy difficulties was found in
most Southern homes, was owing to the ex-
tract of Calisnya bark which it contained as
one of its principle ingredients.-'ln conhrma'
ton of this we have heard one OF our most
distinguished physicians remark, thet when
ever he felt unwell from ordinary dietetic o.
atmospheric causes, he invariably relieves
himself by Plantation Btters. Now that thes
Bitters cannot be obtained, q substitute shouk
be prepared. We understand our goyernmen
has opened negotiations with DR.. Drake
through secret agent, but with what truu
we do not know
We are exceedingly obliged to the Richmond
Wing for its remembrance OF Aud Lang Syne
but we cnn assure "Our government that tho
Plantation Bitters are not for sale to any Sc
crst agents. North or South. There is proba-
bly, several other things that Our Government
viii yet want. ...
We know that we have the best and most
DO pular medicine in the world. We are no.
afraid 10 show what it is composed of.
