The Charleston Courier MAKES 3 tlmeiy sug-
gestion in recommending the attention Of our
government to the naturalization and cultiva-
tion Of Calisaya, for the preservation Of the
health of our soldiers. This article has pecu.
liar effect upon the liver, and guards the sys-
tenn again st disease by exposure and irregular
diet 1t is said that the grea: success OF the
Plantation Bitters of DR.. Drake, which, previ-
| Gus to our unhappy difficulties was found in
most Southern homes, was owing to the extract
of Calisaya Bark which it contained as one Of
its principal ngredients.-"I In confirmation Of
this, we have heard one OF our most distin-
guished physicians remark, that whenever he
felt uRwen from ordinary dietetic or atmos.
pheric causes, he Invariably relieved himself
by Plantation Bitters. Now that these Bit:en
cannot be obtained, a substitute should be prs-
pared. We understand our government has
opened negotiations with DR.. Drake, through
secret agent, but with what truth we do not
know \
We are exceedingly obliged to the Richmond
Whig iorits remembrance OF AuldLang Syne,''
but we can assure .sOur Government that the
Plantation Bitters are mott for sale to any secret
agents." North or South There is probably
several other things that sour Government
