LOUISVILLE, KY, June Sd, 1868.
We, the undersigned, have the good effects
produced by the use of Dr. JONI Bulls CeDRoN
BITTERs in cases of general debility and prostra-
ton of the system, and believe its general use
would prevent disease and relieve much suffering
Among our soldiers particularly would this be the
case, especially those who are exposed to MAS

Military Items.


Battery B, of Rhode Island, stands dis
abled in Carlisle street, Gettysburg, hav- 1
ing lost, it is stated, all its men but six,
and all its horses but two. At one time
Che rebels pulled at the hind wheels and
our men at the fore wheels of piece,
each resolved upon its possession. Lit
tie Rhody came off best, and not single
piece was lost
Sixty-six thousand five hundred rebel
prisoners are now in our hands, accord
ing to official statements, and fifteen
thousand Union prisoners in the hands
of the rebels.
Capt John J. Blinn, formerly of the
18th, but lately Acting Assistant Adju-
tant General on General Harrow's staff,
was MORALLY wounded in the thigh by a
piece of shell at the battle of Gettysburg,
and has since died.
Capt. Blinn fingered until Monday,
the 18th, attended by his widowed and
heart-broken mother, when he yielded up
his spirit to sleep that sleep that knows
no waking. His remains were brought
home to Terro Haute, where they were
buried With military honors on Sunday
last.
Capt BHnn was brave and accom-
pTshed officer and soldier, and had
passed through fifteen battles unscathed
TO perish on the sixteenth-the most ter
rible and decisive of the series.
DISTRICT CONFERENCE.-THE attend
ance at the meeting of the Conference
yesterday was not in proportion to the
interesting character of the exercises.
Some ten or twelve ministers were pres
ent, and only an exceedingly small num-
Der of citizens. The exercises con
sisted in the reading of essays, and criti-
cisms upon them as they were read, by
the members of the Conference. In the
afternoon, during the time we were per-
mitted to listen, three essays were read
the first by Rev. Mr. Fellows-suhject:
clay Representation; ID. by Rev. Mr..
Tansey-subject: NJ. E, Church South;
3d-by Rev Mr. stallard-subiect': The
Support of the Ministry"
The essays were all well written
showed earnestness on the part of the
authors, and that they had given the
subjects discussed by them respectively
much serious thought. The criticism;
were numerous frequently and always
interesting.
The programme of exercises for to-day
will prove equally as interesting, We
think, as yesterday. Our citizens vii
enjoy themselves by being present,

Just before the crossing commenced
Duke was heard demonstrating with
Morgan, and told him that this stream
was the Rubicon. That if he crossed il
1t would prove fatal to him. John re
piled, there was no alternative.
For ten days or more he had been
chased by Hobson, with superior force
and it was impossible to go South With
out meeting, and the only hope of escape
then was to go around Louisville and
escape through Central and Eastern
Kentucky.
The very slight damage done to rail.

John knew that his safety depended on
the speed and bottom of his horses.
Johns race in the north was short but
he ran long ways.

ELECTION DAr passed of very quietly in
Oroville, although parties were busy as ''ihe
devil in gale" No Disturbances Of per-
sonal nature occurred. although the serenity of
the Republicans received shock, which will
result in paralysis, the next time. This precinct
ia largely Republican, which creates joyous
feeling among the deuded portion OF onr pop
ula,ion, and corresponding depression among
the patriotic The country is safe. The re-
suit 10 OroviIIe will be Immediately telegrsphed
to Washington, when Charleston will succomb.
The leaguers mined and blew up the strong
holds OF the people, and are gallantly taking
something drink We shall not congrat-
ulate them on their triumph in old Butte; but
Republicans who were disappointed in their
nominating convention, are justifable in using
moderate amount of profanity, for the result
shows that anybody could have been elected.
There is a slight falling Of in the aggregate
vote of OrovIle, but an increase of the Repub
lican majority.
The Republican majority in the county will
be 10 the neighborhood of three hundred.
Lows majority in the State is Sufficient to
be decisive, and is probably satisfactory TO his
