The Charleston Courier makes II timely sug
| geslon in recommending the attention OF oui
government to the naturalization and cuiiva
ton of Calisaya, for the preservation Of tho
health of our soldiers. This article has pc.
culinr effect upon the liver and guards the
system against disease by exposure and irrcg-
ular diet. 1t is said tina, the great success OF
the Plantation Bitters oil DR. Drake, which pre-.
vious to our unhappy difficulties was found in
most Southern homes, was owing to the ex-
| tract OF Calisaya bark which it contained ~
| one of its principle ingredients coufrma-
ton of this, We have heard one of our most
distinguished physicians remark, thet when
ever he felt unwell from ordinary dielelic or
atmospheric causes, he invariably relieved
himself by Plantation Bilters Now that these
| ei,icrs cannot be obtained n substitute should
| be prepared Wenndersiand our government
has opened negotiations with DR.. Drake,
through secret agent, but with what truth
we do cot know
We are exceedingly obliged TO the Richmond
Wig for its remembrance or'Auld Lang Syue'
but we can assure sour government" that the
Plantation Bitters are not for sale to any Sc
cret agents North or South. There is proba-
bly several other things that'Our Governmt nj

DO ular medicine in the world. We IRE no
afraid 10 show what il is composed of.
