The Charleston Courier makes timely sug-
gestion in recommending the attention OF ouT
government to the naturalization and cultiva-
ton of Calisaya, for the preservation Of the
health of our soldiers. This article has pecu-
liar effect upon the liver, and guards the sys-
TEN again st disease by expos ure and irregular
diet. It is said that the grea: success OF the
Plantation Bitters OF Dir. Drake, which, prav-
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
it's prin cipal ingredients" In con ntirmation OF
this, we have heard one Of our most distin-
guished physicians remark, that whenever he
felt unwen from ordinary dietetic or atmos-
pheric causes, he invariably relieved himself
by Plantation Bi.ters. Now thar these Bif:ars
cannot be obtained, a substitute should be pre-
pared. We understand our government has
opened negotiations with DIR. Drake, througha
secret agent, but with what truth we do not
know Y A Y
We are exceedingly obliged TO the Richmond
WAigt its remembrance Of "AGId Lang Syne,'
bu. we can assure .sOur Government that the
Plantation Btters are notfor sale to any ..secret
agents. North or South. There is probably
several other things that ssOpr Government''
will yet want.
We know that we have the best and most
popular medicine in the world. We are not
afraid to show what it is composed of.
