sW Harvey Sickler, Esq, the able
editor of the Iunkhannock Pa Dem
ocrdt, publishes the following in his
issue of 30th October, 1861
We deem it due to Messrs. j. G..
Aver e. Co., and the public, to make
known our experience with the use of
their EXT. SARsAPARILLA in our fam
lily, by stating the circumstances under
which it was taken and its effects.
When our only child, now in his
third year, was about eight months old,
a sore appeared first in small pimples
on his forehead over his nose. These
rapidly increased and uniting formed a
!oathsome, virulent sore, which finally
spread over his forehead and face, not
even excepting his eyelids, which be-
came 30 swollen that his eyes were
closed. We called skilful physician,
who administered the usually pre-
ecribed remedies. A solution of nitrate
of silver was applied until the mass of
corruption which covered his entire
face turned jet black. The sore again
and again burst thro' the scorched and
artificial skin formed by this solution.
Meanwhile many remedies were en-
ployed without any apparent benefit.
For fifteen days and nights he was con-
stantiy held by his parents to keep him
from tearing open with his hands the
corrupt mass which covered his face.
Everything having failed, We were
induced by the high recommendations
of AYERS SARsAPARILLA for the cure
of Scrofulous disease, to give it a trial.
In his treatise on Scrofula, DR.. Aver
directs mild solution of Iodide OF
Potash to be used as a wash while tax
ing the Sarsaparilla, and it was faith
fully applied.
Before one bottle of Sarsaparilla had
been given the sore had lost much OF
its virulence and commenced to heal.
Another bottle effected an entire cure,
and the general prediction that the
child must die was contradicted. His
eyelashes which came out, grew again,
and his face is left without scar, as
smooth as anybody's. 1t is unnec-
sssary for mo to state in how high es-
TEEN we hold AYERS SARsAPARILLA.

ohisct,ops to the Union League.

OnOoct10no 10 the UNION AeuSucs
In the establishment of this Govern.
ment Union Leagues were formed to
secure the united action of colonies
and of citizens. John Hancock, Ben
jamin Franklin, and Charles Carroll,
would have been equally true to free
dom and the country without putting
their well known signatures to the Dec
laration, pledging life, fortune, and
sacred honor, to the support of the
American Republic. But combination
and unity of action were necessary to
resist the arm of tyranny and establish
this free Government on firm basis.
Such combination is indispensable now,
when all Slavedom and the same trans
atlantic power have combined to de-
stroy the noble Government then
formed, on the principle of equal and
inalienable rights under which all class.
es of citizens have enjoyed unprece-
denied JOY and happiness. We trust
the time is now at hand when the name
of every loyal citizen will be found en-
rolled on the side of the United States
Government, and in favor of prosecut-
ing the war with increased energy,
until the national flag is honored in
every State Of the Union. No man
can doubt but that it is right and nec-
essary at this time, when the Govern
ment is in imminent danger of being
overthrown, for all men that love tn at
Government to combine and use all the
means at command, and if need be,
peril life itself in its defence. There
may possibly be men who hesitate,
from timidity and indicision, or from
doubt or hesitation, but no loyal man
will persistently oppose the signing OF
simple declaration of loyalty, by
loyal men to sustain the Govern
ment in its efforts to suppress the rebel
| lion.

More About the Battle.

NEW YORK, May 5.-Among the
killed and wounded are Maj. Gen. Der
ry, killed ; Gen. Devins, Mass, wound
ed in the foot Gen. Mott, two places :
Lieut.. Col. Scott, Sd Wisconsin, killed !;
Capt. Temple I'd Regulars killed,
Lieut.. Crosby, 4th Regular Battery,
killed also large number of field
and company officers killed and wound
ed, mostly in New York and Pennsyl-
vania regiments.
A Falmouth letter dated Sunday, 10
o'clock in the evening states that Gen.
Sedgwick attacked the heights of Fred
erickshurg, and gallantly carried them
by storm, capturing the 10th and 10th
Mississippi regiments, and one com
pany of the New Orleans Washington
artillery, of guns, and altogether over
one thousand prisoners. Gen. Gibbor
planted the-Stars and Stripes over the
rebel works,
Our loss was moderate. Gen. Sedg
wick afterwards drove the rebels back
and at P. NJ, Sunday, had advanced
to the brick church, a miles toward
Charlottesville on the plank road.
There he had a severe fight with
Earl's (rebeD division, reinforced by
Lee, but repulsed them, taking lot o.
prisoners.
The enemy are now hemmed in be
tween Hooker and Sedgwick, and the
advantage is decidedly with us.
The Herald says our loss in storming
the heights of Fredericksburg was
about 1000 killed and wounded.
The WOrld's correspondent says the
battle was resumed on Monday, and
was most desperate affair.
The rebels made series of superhu
man attacks at all points, but were re
pulsed with terrific slaughter. Oul
forces have destroyed the bridges ii
the rear of the rebels across the Mata
ponox, thus completely cutting off al
retreat to Richmond.
Gen. Sickles is reported killed, bu
it is not credited.

FEARS OF Lone WAR AND FAMIN

FEARS OF LONG WAR AND FAMINE.
1t is announced in nearly all the
Southern newspapers, that the people
of the rebellious States are generally
giving their land to the cultivation OF
the cereals, expecting a long war, and
its attendant hardships. In East Ten
nessee and Virginia, large crops OF
wheat have been planted, while
throughout the cotton districts of Ala.
bama the planters are giving their un-
divided attention to its cultivation. In
North Carolina, it is said, the wheat is
in highly flourishing condition, and
1t the season should continue favorable,
a large harvest will be gathered.
These signs would seem to indicate
that the rebels do not anticipate the
speedy closing of the war, which their
sympathizers in the North have striven
to effect.

to the relief of the hard pressed Slckles'
The engagement lasted from $50 TO
8 As A M, when being out OF ammu-
milton our forces held their position for
an hour at the point of the bayonet.
Upon being re-supplied, they fell back
in good order to Chancellor House,
where the contest was again maintained
with great havoc to the enemy ana
considerable loss to ourselves.
The vicinity of Chancellor House
was now the threatre of the fight, and
Hooker maintained his Headquarters
there until 10 o'clock, when it was
burned by rebel shell. In the mean
time, Hooker established new line,
and our forces were withdrawn to
that front, and at 1870 musketry firing
ceased. The engagement lasted SIX
hours and was the most terrific OF the
war. Our artillery literally slaughtered
the enemy. Many of our batteries lost
heavily in men, but the guns were all
saved.
The enemy is now no longer in our
rear, but directly in our front, between
us and our forces in Fredericksburg
We occupy their fortified and en-
trenched position. The enemy gained
some ground, but at the sacrifice OF
five of his seven divisions. Sunday
P. M. the rebels made several attempts
to force our lines, several of his bate
ries and regiments being actually des-
troyed in attempts to carry the apex OF
our position near the Chancellor House,
where large quantity of our artillery
is massed. Our present position is
impregnable. Gen. Lee has ordered
that our lines must be broken at all
hazards, bnt the rebels will only des-
troy themselves by the attacks. Our
troops are perfectly cool and conf
dent.
The rebel Gen. Hill is reported
killed.
Gen. Berry was killed while leading
his brave men.

Supporting the Government.

we frequently hear democrats talk
ing about opposing the Administration
while supporting the Government.
The locofoco press has taken up this
cry and is ringing all manner of
changes upon it. The copperhead
press, particularly, while entertaining
the vilest and most traitorous schemes,
are endeavoring to blind and deceive
the Democratic masses by constant
torrent of sophistrics upon this propo.
sition.
Now, there can be no such thing as
a constitutional opposition to the Gov
eminent. Opposition to the Govern
ment is treason, either open or construc-
tive, in the proper meaning of the
phrase. What is the Government
Webster's Dictionary defines the Gov
eminent as
The system of policy in a state !;
that form of fundamental rules and
principles by which nation or State
is governed, or by which individual
members of a body polite are to regu-
late their social actions; constitution,
either written or unwritten, by which
the rights and duties of citizens and
public officers are prescribed and de-
fined"
Thus it is seen that opposition to the
Government means opposition to the
constitution itself, and to the very prin-
ciples which constitute the vitality of
the Republic. The rebels in arms are
engaged in an opposition to the Gov.
eminent, by open force, and their SYM
pathizers and abettOrs in the north are
opposing the Government by secret
intrigue, by the subtitle influence of
speech and example, and by the influ-
snce OF their their votes at the ballot
| box: because, in all these matters they
so exert their influence as to iniure and
thwart the working of those funda.
mental principles embodied in the Con-
stitution and Declaration of Independ-
ence which are the Government.
A person may, in some cases, oppose
the Administration and still uphold the
Government, but the instant that his
opposition goes so far as to jeopardize,
or injure, or in the least degree to re-
tard the perfect working and vitality OF
the principles upon which the Republic
is founded, that instant the opposition
includes both Government and Admin
istratioD, and becomes reasonable.
The Democracy, therefore, cannot,
in these times, exercise, violent, radi-
cal, unrelenting opposition to the Adj
ministration WITHDRAWING great dan.

sW A soldier of the regular army,
who has been in the service for many
years, was discharged one day last
week because of wounds received in
battle, which inoapacitated him for per-
forming the duties of soldiers's life.
When discharged, three or four humid
red dollars were his due, and besides
this sum he had saved enough for a
total of eight hundred dollars. This
amount, which was all he had in the
world, except enough to get to his home
with, be deposited with an agent for
five-twenty six per cent. bonds. The
United States Government, he said,
had paid him every dollar of this
money, and he would trust it with the
money, for if the Government should
fail in the war, he would not care to
survive such a calamity. Patriotism
like this would keep the treasury over.
