Liquor q Curse % the Army.

One Of the curses which has wrought
evil from the commencement of hostili-
ties is that Of liquor among officers and
soldiers. We need not cite the cases of
officers who have been drunk on impor-
tant occasions, as Miles at the FIRST bat
tie of Bull Run. Grant at Fort Henry
and Shiloah, an! other notable cases
reported. but the following is in point.
1t is the testimony of Gen. Butler be.
fore the Committee on the Conduct Of
the War:
We use to send = picket.gusrd up .
mile and half from Fortress Monroe.
The men would leave perfectly sober,
yet every night when they came back
We would have trouble with them on
account of their being drunk. Where
they got their liquor We could not tell.
Night after night We instituted . vigor-
Gus examination, but it was always the
same. The men were-examined over
and over again: their cauteens we're in.
spected. and yet We could find no liquor
about them"
At last Il was observed that they
seemed to hold their guns up very
straight. and upon An examination be-
ing made it was found that every gun
barrel Was filed with whisksy-and il
is not always the soldiers who do this.
ordered . search of the Adams Ex-
press Co.. and examined the packages
sent to the soldies BY their friends. and
in one day l have taken one hundred
and Fifty different packages of liquor
from the trunks, boxes. and packages
sent 70 the soldiers by their sympsthis-
ing friends at home.
Gen. Butler says he took measures to
suppress this abuse.
As to liquor in Blenker's Division.
Captain William. Brigade Commissary
in Gen. Blenker's Division, said. in an

Nothing that is not wholesome, genial and
restorative in its nature, enters into the compo-
sition of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This
popular preparation contains no mineral OF any
kind, no deadly botanical element; no fiery ex-
citant but it is q combination of the extracts
of rare balsamic herbs and plants with the pur-
est and mildest of all diffusive stimuants.
1t is well to be forearmed against disease,
and, so far as the human system can be pro-
tected by human means against maladies en-
gendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, I'M
pure water and other external causes, Hostel
ter's Btters may be relied on as a safeguard.
In districts infested with Fever and Ague,
it has been found infallible as preventive and
irresistible as remedy and thousands who re-
sort to it under apprehension of an attack, es-
cape the scourge and thousands who neglect
to avail themselves of its protective qualities
in advance, are cured by very brief course of
this morvelous medicine. Fever and Ague pa
tents, after being piled with quinine for
months in vain, until fairly saturated with that
dangerous alkaloid, are not unfreq uently restor-
ed to health within few days by the use of
Hostetter's Bittew.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated
and the appetite restored by this agreeable
Tonic, and hence it works wonders in cases of
Dyspepsia and in less confirmed forms of Indi-
gestion. Acting as gentle and painless ap-
perient, as well as upon the liver, it also invar-
iably relieves the Constipation superinduced
by irregular action of the digestive and secre-
tive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Nervous At
tacks, Lowness of Spirits and Fits of Languor,
find prompt and permanent relief from these
Btters. The testimony o.: this point is most
conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Bilious Collie is Immediately as
suaged by a single dose of the stimulant, and
by occasionally resorting to it, the return of the
complaint may be prevented.
AS General Tonic, Hostetter's Bitters pre-
duce effects which must be experienced or wit
messed before they con be fully appreciated. In
cases of Constitutional Weakness, Premature
Decay and Debility and Decreptitude arising
from Old Age, it exercises the electric infiu-
ence. In the convaescent stages of all dsea-
ses it operates as a delightful invigorant, When
the powers of nature are relaxed, it operates to
re-enforce and re-establish them.
Last, but not least, it is The only Safe Slim
ulant, being manufactured from sound and in
ocuous materials, and entirely free from the ac-
id elements present more or loss in all the or
binary TONES and stomachics of the day.
No family medicine has been SO universally,
and, it may be truly added, deseruedty popular
with the intelligent portion of community, as
Hostetter's Bitters.
