A Word of Solemn Con scientious advice
TO those who will reflect.

10 tnOse VINO VIII reUect.
A class of maladies prevail to a fearful ex-
tent in community, looming at least 100. 900
youth of both sexes, annually, to an early
grave. Those diseases are very imperfectly
understood. Their external manifestations of
symptoms are Nervous Debility, Relaxation
and exhaustion Marasmus or wasting and
consumption of the whole body; shortness of
breathing or hurried breathing on ascending a
bill or flight Of stairs great palpitation of
the heart; Asthma, Bronchitis and Sore
Throat ; shaking of the Hands and Limbs !;
aversion to society and to business or study !;
dimnoss of Eye Sight, loss of Memory, dizzi
ness of the Head, Neuralgia Pain in various
parts Of the body Pains in the Back or Limbs,
Lumbago, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Irregu-
hrity of the Bowels, deranged sections of the
corrhGa Fleur Albus, &c Virulent Diseases in
both Male and Female Likewise Epilepsy,
Hysteria and Nervous Spasms.
Now, IN muety-nine cases out of every one
hundred, all the above named disorders. and a
host of others not named, as Consumption of
the Lungs and that most insdIous and willy
form of Consumption of the Spinal Nerves,
known Tabes Dorsales, aud Mcsenterica,
have their seat and origin in diseases of the
Pelvic Niscera. Hence the want Of success of
the old school practice in treating symptoms
only.
DR.. Andrew Stone, Physician to the Troy
Lung and HYGIENE Institution, is now enga-
ged in treating this class of modern maladies
with the most astonishing success. The treat
ment adopted by the Institution is new it is
based upon scientific principles, with new dis
covered remedies, without minerals or poisons
The facilities of cure are snch that patients
can be cured at their homes, in any part of the
country, from accurate descriptions of their
case by letter, and have the medicines sent
them by mail or express. Printed interroga-
tories will be forwarded on application.

Free Labor in Tennessee.

The following is an extract from letter sent
from Gen. Payne to Gen. Rosecrans. It is
creditable to both the head and heart of Gen
Payne, and the intelligence it conveysis high
ly important and gratifying
"GALLATIN, Tenn, June MY plan for
changing slave to hired labor is working ad-
mirably We are hiring black people to their
own masters. We say to the servant that he
is to have eight dollars per month, and is to
be a faithful and good workhand. We say
to him in the presence of his former owner
that if his employer does not pay him at the
end of the month that he is to return. We
make written contracts in which the slave is
only known as hired man. The Fairview
estate has upon it one hundred and sixty
eight slaves. The estate is four miles from
here. The trustees and overseers came to me
to go there and compel the black people to
work. told them should do so, but should
make change and compel the estate to pay
them for their labor. They at once agreed to
it. 1 went down and told the black men that
they should have eight dollars per month and
the women five. l would stop the pay of any
lazy or dsobedient servant, and would pun
ish him besides. You can form no idea of
the great change in these people. The over
seer is compelled to report to me each week,
and he says there has never been anything
like it, They never had so much work done,
nor half as well done before.

on the war-a Government that has courage
enough to violate many laws upon the stat
ute-book, but not the wicked Fugitive Slave
law
The Government should now announce to
the world its purpose to protect the coloredI
soldiers against the malignant passions of the
rebel slave-master The rebels threaten mur-
der to every negro who takes up rnusket-
murder to every white officer who commands
in a negro regiment. This Government is
about to compel negroes to fight, for it will
make no distinction between whites and bricks
in the enrolment and draft It is but right
that the race subject to these hideous threats
of the Southern barbarians should be assured
that the Government will protec them by ev-
cry means within its reach. In this matter
it will not do for the President to hesitate as
he has done in the past upon some important
questions. Hesitation and vacilation now
will be intense cruelty to the colored people.
There is really no danger think, of any
lack of promptness upon the part of the Gov
ernment in avenging any ill-treatment of our
colored soldieIs which the rebels may venture
to inhict.
1t is almest laughable to hear once more
the old cry of an invasion of Maryland, and
that Washington is in danger. 1t seems now
as if We were about to repeat the summer
of last year. Gen. Lee, it is claimed is plan
ming another invasion of Maryland and Penn
sylvania, and those persons who have little
confidence in the generalship of Hooker, are
nervous over the summer prospects. Gen
| Hooker's friends assert that he is still master
of the situation, and perfectly competent tc
drive Lee back toward Richmond, if he should
venture upon an offensive movement

rreason in II1inois.

The Chicago Tribune says that the plotters
against the Government are throwing off all
disguise, and in some localities, companies of
armed men meet and parade in open day and
in populous villages, with the avowed pur-
pose of preparing for a resistance to the Gov
ernment. In one county some six hundred
men recently assembled on horseback, osten-
sibly for political meeting, but reall to drill
and prepare for war. Indeed, in all the coun-
ties of the centre of the State, in which the
pro- Slavery party used to look for and get its
large majorities, the boasting that this war
shall not go on; that this Administration at
Washington shall be dispersed; that Govern
or Yates shal! be driven out of Illinois that
the Federal taxes shall not be paid and that
the CONSUMPTION law shall not be enforced, is
everywhere loud and defiant; and the prepa-
rations to make these words good are actively
and increasingly going on
These men are only "laying up wrath
against the day of wrath" for themselves !;
but they should be diligently watch that
their reasonable designs may not be allowed
to lead astray too many of the unwary. They
have their allies in this State, who will also
bear close attention and watching Cleveland

Eieht Port uuhson,

The Herazds New Orleans correspondence
of the 2Sth gives some particulars of an at
tack on Port Hudson. The attack commenced
on the 9th by land and water fight 1t
was desperate all day, and continued on the
28th. Gen. Weitzel, after long and close
fighting finally captured heavy six gun bat
terry, which sank the Mississippi, and has
turned it on the rebels.
On the enemy's right Sherman charged and
carried the works by storm, but the enemy
massed his troops, and our men had to fall
back. In this charge the End Louisiana
fought like demons, and lost some 600 out of
900 men. fer.=
Gen Sherman was severely wounded in
the leg; Col. Clarke and Col: Cowles, killed;
Col. Smith, badly wounded
The 9th Michigan and 12Sth N. Y. lost
half of their men on the centre attack made
by Gems. Anger and Grover, and the enemy
were driven into his main works.
The I1Sbmae's correspondent, dated New
Orleans, May 29th has the following: The
propeller Ida arrived last evening from Baton
Rouge From S. Bryant, of the 128th N. Y,
learn that at 2 a. m. yesterday heavy can
nonading could be heard at Port Hudson
Our loss heavy. 1t is reported to be at least
1000.
General Banks moved from point to point
along the liIrcs with perfect GOODNESS. His
quick eye would detect laggard movement
or an unprotected position, and an aid would
be dispatched with instructions He INDUCED
in no vain display of staff officers. The
fight, without doubt, would be renewed at
daybreak yesterday. -
The most perfect confidence was felt that
the rebel stronghold would succumb to the
Union forces. --r .t..0F r1. as ?

A writer in tke Herald sends for publication
"an extract from letter written by one of
Ohio's bravcst and best officers, one who is
TO politician, but looks with an eye single to
"a vigorous prosecution of the war, and a
crushing out, speedily, of this rebellion"
The extract from the letter is as follows:
"Politics now open my mouth to you
We are to have an election in Ohio this fall
for Governor, and it is of that matter we wish
to speak.
Youl will, doubtless, agree with me, that
our next Governor must be man if not a
soldier, still representative of the soldiers.
One who has their interests at heart, a vigor-
Gus, uncompromising war man of the Morton
stripe; faithful to his trust, not only to our
citizens at home, but ever anxious that Ohio
soldiers in the field should not only be cared
for, but that in all promotions and appoint
ments exact justice should be done.
"Now let me propose man who kaaoaU
not only to be emnently fit SO far as admin
istrative abilities ae concerned, but who is
! beloved by our soldiers; with a large head
and large heart-to wit: j. A. Garfield"
We can cordially endorse all of the above
| in regard to Gen. Garfield We know him,
and know him to be able and capable, and in
ability and patriotic labor, would adorn the
Chief Magistracv of Ohio. And we believe.
also, that the nomination of no man will be
hailed with greater, if by as great enthusiasm
by the soldiers in the field, and that none
would be more popular with the people.
He is man of great ability, of great ener-
gy, of untiring industry, true soldier, an
enlightened statesman, and has done honor to
every position in which he has acted.
Therefore, without wishing to disparage
any of Ohio's worthy and deserving sons, we
would respectfully suggest the name of Gen.
James A. Garfield, as worthy of the candid
and careful consideration of those who will
be called upon to place a candidate for Gov
ernor in the field.
