SPECIAL NOTICES.
'HosfETTERs BITTERs ON THE BATTLE


It is satisfactory to know that our field hospitals
are no longer unsuppiied with this life saving
preparation. Soldiers who, as private citizens,
had become acquainted with its properties, have
in many instances made a special request that
HOSTETTERS STOMACH BITTERS might be
added to the medical stores of their regiments,
and their wishes have not been unheeded. As a
/, means Of sustaining wounded men on the battle.
field, and of enabling troops to bear fatiguing
marches under blazing sun, it has been siren
uously recommended by distinguished medical
men, and the prospect is that it will eventually
supercede all the adulterated tinctures, liquors
and dangerous Tonics that have heretofore been
considered medicinal staples. The fact that a
small quantity of the Bitters mixed with water
from any of the Southern or Southwestern rivers
will prevent it from affecting the bowels or the
liver, should be borne in mind by Army Physi-
clans. soldiers, and all who have occasion to visit
those portions of our country. The man who uses
HosTETTER's BITTERs in conformity with the
directions, may set at defiance Intermittent Fever
and all other diseases generated by the action of
an unwholesome atmosphere upon an overtaxed
frame. jy2l-2w

THE VERDICT N THE MARY HARRIS TRIAL.
The verdict only furnishes new illustration
of what must be regarded as a settled principle
in American law-that any woman who con-
siders herself aggrie we'd in any way by mems
ber of the other sex, may kill him with impuni-
ty. and with an assured immunity from the
prescribed penalties of law. The man may
really have been guilty neither OF. g. crime
against her person. an assault upon her nonor.
nor an offence against her feelings; II enc ls
seized by q fancy that his course OF conauct 10.
ward her is not such as she had anticipated
from his addresses, she may Kill him upon no.
t,ce or without notice II man as murdered
by a member of the opposite sex in any OF tho
cases supposed, or in almost any supposablo
case whatever, she is almost certain to escape.
not only the extreme penalty Of the law, but
any penalty whatev yer.
1t were useless to find fault with this state OF
things 1t is peculiar to America, and people
in general are decidedly proud Of it. There ls
no reason in the nature Of things why crimi.
mails Of one sex should be treated with such ex-
ceptional and dubious honor; but who shall
argue with the feelings OF jury, backed up by
public sentiment and by customl 1t is we'll
enough, however, that every man should al
ways bear the fact in mind, so that he may on.
all occasions so comport himselfin the presence
of the sex as never to give any Of them either
a real or fanciful pretext for taking him of un-
