ATTENTION SOLDIERS .
AND FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS,

We call attention of all having relations ol
friends in the army to the fact that Hoofiand',
German Bitters will cure ine-tenths of the dis
eases induced by exposures and privatiOnS Incl
dent to camp life. In the lists published almost
daily in the newspapers ON the arrival of the
sick ii will be noticed that n very large proper
ton suffering from debility. Every cnse oi
that kind can be readily cured by lIoofland's
German Bitters. Diseases resulting from disor-
ders of the digestive organs are speedily remov-
ed. We have no hesitation in stating that il
these Bittcrs were freely used among our sol
dicrs hundreds of lives might be saved that 9TH
crwiSe would be lost.
We call peticular attention to the following
remarkable and well authenticated cure of one
of the nations heroes, whose life to use his own
language "has been saved by the Bitters.'
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 22d, 1853.
NESTS, JONES & EvANs.-Wel, Gentlemen, b.,
your Hoofand's German BittcrS has saved my
life. There is no mistake in this, it, is vouched
for by numbers of my comrades, some of whose
names are appended and who were fully cogni-
and have been for the last four years a member
of Sherman's celebrated battery and under the
immediate command OF Captain r. b. Ayere.-
Through the exposure attendant upon my ardu i
Gus duties was attacked in November last with
inflammation of the lungs and was for seventy
great debility heightened by an attack ofdysen-
terry. | was then removed from the White
house and sent to this city on board the steamer
state of Maine from which landed on the 2sth
of June. Since that time have been about as
low as any one could be and still retain spark
of vitality. For a week or more was scarcely
able to swallow anything and if | did force n
morcel down it was Immediately thrown up
again.
/ could not even keep glass of water on my
stomach. Life could not last under these cir
cumstances, and accordingly the physicians who
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess-
fully to rescue me from the grasp Of the dread
for me and advised me to see a clergyman and
to make such disposition of my limited funds
as best suited me. An acquaintance who visit
ed me at the hospital, Mr.. Frederick Steinborn,
of sixth below Arch street, advised me as n for
lorn hope to, try your Bitters, and kindly pro-
cured a bottle. From the time commenced to
take them the gloomy shadow of death receded,
and am now, thank God for it, getting better.
Though have taken but two bottles, have
gained ten pounds, and feel sanguine of being
permitted to rejoin my wife and daughter from
whom have heard nothing for eighteen months;
for gentlemen, am loyal Nfrginian from the
vicinity of Front Royal. To your invaluable
Bitters owe the certainty of life which has ta-
ken the place of vague fears-to your Bitters
will owe the glorious privilege of again clasp
ing to my bosom, those who are dearest to me
in life.

The Duro-Gcrnrnn War.

The final meeting of the Conference took
place on the GOTH 1t parcly formal ana the wal
had recommended. IL is understood that at the last
meeting the representatives Of the German Power
read declaration, in which they threw upon Denmars
the whole responsibility which Denmark egtirey repu'
dates letter was read from the Emperor Of Russs.
Announcing that he had ceded his claims upon Hosten
20 the Duke Of Oldenburg and that these claims must
be considered as revived by the present situation.
The Conference unanimously passed veto OF thanks
10 Earl Russell who presided az the sitlngs. LORD
Russell reviewed the ahors of the Conference in whict
be expressed the hope that m neutral powers c0ncurred
that whatever might be the issue Of the conflict the
Independence Of the Denish Monarchy you'd be pre-
served.
Prussia had sent orders to Marshal Won Wrangel y
reconmence hostities the oath speedy attack on
the island Of AlseB was expected.
II stated that tho German soyereigns IL Coribed
had come 10 unde rstandng that Prussia with the
concurrence with Austria should propose AZ the Fed
Cral Diet that the Germsnic Confederation shOnld de-
clare war against Denmark.
The political excitement in England ran nigh, as ia
the course to be pursued and the meeting OF Pariameni
on the 9th was anxously awaited On account OF the
promised ministerial statements.
The Times believes that the Conference ended with
the rejection by both beigerets Of the proposals made
by the neutras and as Denmark deliberately expressed
her desire that the should proceed the Brith Gov
erment thinks itself bound TO interfere 80 long
the war remains within the limits which mnst have
been contemplated by the Danes when they made then
choice.
