CoTToN FOR WoUNDs.-The Earoti"ian IS in-
formed BY Dr. SILL, the well known druggist of
Columbia that burnt cotton is one of the best art-
ces next to lint, which can be applied to wound
The latter cannot always be had, the former is a.
bundant and easily obtained Every one has ne
ticed that raw cotton, when plunged in water IS
scarcely more than dampened externally; when
bSraed or scorched and submitted to the same pro-
cess it is instantly wet through This is owing to
the destruction Of the oily principle which it con-
tains, which oil prevents the healthy use of cotton
on wounds

GEN. LEES DAUGHTER A correspondent Of
the Biblical Recorder writing of the Winder Hos

Five of the divisions appropriated exclusively
to North Carolinians. He adGs: "One very pleas
ing feature of this, and in fact all the hospitals OF
Richmond, Petersburg, Lynchburg, and Charlotts;

among the attendants. Some of the very first wo-
men ofthe country are matrons and nurses in these
