WISHART'S PINE TREE TAR CORDIAL
GREAT REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION

READING, Pa, April 10, 1854.
DR.. WIsHART-DeGT Sir: One year ago the
Examining Surgeon of this district told me
had Consumption of the Lungs, and that could
not be cured; and Judging from all my symptoms
at that time, myself supposed this to be true.
| was for more than one year troubled with
hacking cough, which gradually grew so bad
that could not have a severe fit of coughing
without splitting up blood in large quantities.
For monthsI could not work at anything,
and was obliged to keep my bed most of the
time. While in this condition l was in Mr..
Rowbotham's store, in this city, and he seeing
how low | was, recommended me to try your
Pine Tree Tar Cordial. He said he had sold
great deal of it. and that as it had cured SO many
others, he believed it would do some good. /
bought bottle and commenced using it. In
very shorttime | saw that | was getting better
very fast, and after taking several bottles was
entirely restored to health, SO that could work
every day at my business, which is very heavy
work, in an iron foundry. When | commenced
to use your Pine Tree Tar Cordial, my weight
was only one hundred and thirty-five pounds;
since the use of it | have weighed on an average
one hundred and fifty five. l shall be glad to
have you publish this, as believe l should not
have been living at this time if had not used
your great medicine, and | wish all who suffer
to receive its benefit
+. Very truly yours,
Capt. SAMUEL HARNER.

THE PLANTERS AND THE NEGROES.

THE PLANTERS AND THE NEGROES.
The Charlotte correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Press gives the following account OF the
condition of things in the Edisto country south
of that city:
'sIn the South Edisto country the woods
were found full of deserters, between whom and
the planters very bitter feeling existed. All
the able-bOdied negroes had been carried off. =
On the north side OF the river, eight miles be-
low Jacksonboro, Edward Banwell, one of the
notorious Barnwells Gall reported to be hard
task masters, had burned his plantation. Old
William Barnwell, more timid and cruel man,
remained near his property and on the ap-
prOach of our troops begged protection from
the rebel deserters, who, he said, would kill
him. He was also anguished at the apprehen-
ded loss of his property, and entTeated that it
might be saved. ''Raise your flag, them" said
Colonel Van Wyck. ''But haven't got any, |"
replied Barnwell. 1Fhen, rejoined the Colo
mel 'tI'll give you half an hour to make it. :
At the end of half AN hour a ragged flag was
seen above the slaves quarters, placed there by
some poor Contraband to save his own little pro-
perty. Old Mr. Barnwen had not time to gath
er bunting, and SO his plantation was burned.
''The greeting OF the negroes was the most
inspiring episode of the march. In sight of
their burning homes they came out on the road
side to welcome the troops. At the Barnwell
plantation the old hOuse-keepcr cried out ''De
good God Bress dc Lord De Union am
come - One of our officers remarked that in
the burning of their masters property perhaps
their own would be destroyed, one of them ex-
claimed, ''Here's everything we got to live on
take all take all ~ They had expected the
coming of the ssYankes3." yves been maxi
in glad fur to see you, common ex-
preston. yves been lookin' at your smokes
we's been a hearin' your guns fur off, said the
old house keeper.
"Only one case, very rare IN the experience OF
our soldiers, occurred where any showed any
real affection for their masters. 1t was at the
Gibbes plantation, Immediately below old
Barnwell's. Mr.. Gibbcs, who left his property
three years ago. called his negroes around him
and confided it entirely to them. He left no
overseer or driver, and the negroes have man
aged and supported themselves. In respect for
these circumstances, the Gibbes property was
unburned, and guard was placed over it.
Whittier the owner went Is not exactly known;
but the negroes spoke of him as a Union man,
who fled to escape the prosecutions OF Barn
well and conscrption in the rebel service
They say that he had never whipped a slave,
and had turned an OveTseer away for doing it,
and for these resons they felt towards him much
as children towards father. Old William
Barnwell, however, they hated. They were
unanimous that he ought to be hung. Whatcy-
er became of their property, old Barnwelf S
ought to be burned. f'Jes' burn ole Massa
Barnwell out, ours amt worth much anyhow.

ON THE LONE BATTLE FIELD.

ON THE LONE BATTLE FIELD.
On the lone battle field,
Far far away,
Pale as lily white,
Breathless he lay.
No loved one fingers,
To watch with the dying,
Strewn Ger the bloody field
Where he is lying
Ali see his pale lips move,
Dry, parched with fever,
Whispering of loves young dream
Broken forever;
Now of mothers hand.
On his brow pressing,
And as in days of old
Gently caressing.
What is his requiem?
Thunder and battle.
Shrieks of the wounded
His comrades death rattle
Still from his fading eye,
BloodshOt and CORY,
Shine like a star at night
Victory and glory.
Died for his native land
On her dear altar
Yields he his young life up,
ScOrning to falter.
Soldier, tits well with thee.
Lies battles over
Rest, where no ruthless war.
Love and life sever. r.E. :.

ASTHMA AND COUGH CURED.

The Pine Tree Tar Cordial gives instanta-
neous relief in cases of Asthma and WhOOping
Cough. 1t often cures whoOping before it runs
half its course as it acts at once ON the phlegm
and mucus, and expels them from the throat,
and the sufferer is relieved. In case of Asthma,
use DR. Wishart's Dyspepsia Pills with the Cor
dial, as they have never been known to fail to
cure that disease. 4
DIR. WISHART'S PINE TREE TAR
CORDIAL will positively cure the following
diseases: Consumption, if not beyond the pow
er of medicine; inflammation of the Lungs,
Coughs, Sore Throat aud Breast, BronchitIss-
Asthma, and an unlailing remedy for female
complaints.
The above are few among the thousands
whom this great remedy has saved from an un-
timely grave.
We have thousands of letters from Physicians
aud Druggists who have prescribed and sold the
Tar Cordial, saying that they have never used
OF sold medicine which gave such universal
satisfaction.
REMEMBER THAT
The Tar Cordial, when taken in connection with
DR.. Wishart's Dyspepsia Pills, is an ipfallable
cure for Dyspepsia.

F~LENSBURG, Sept. is.
a proclamation has just been issued hv
Northumberland Won Manteuffel TO the
inhabitants of SchIeswig upon assuming
the government of that duchy. 1t

A correspondent writes from Schleswig
on the 18th ultimo 1.-THE number of
S~chleswigers taking part in the visit 10
Copenhagen has rapidly risen from 500,
10 which ii was originally intended they
should be limited, 10 upwards of 1900.
This is owing partly TO The promise made
by the committee of a free passage and
entertainment without expense, and part
ly 10 the expressed intention of the Danes
to give their late countlymen a thorough
ly hospltable and hearty reception. II is
positively stated by the editor of the Fee
drehand that the idea Of the visit was
started here. He declares that nobody
in Copenhagen had any knowledge of
the affair until about a fortnight ago,
when a delegate fioh The SchIcswig orr
gInators Of the visit arrived in the Danish
metropolis to ascertain whether a mass
demonstration Of the kind would be con-
sldered welcome. Receiving an affirma-
tive answer, he was advised at the same
time to apply to the municipal council as
to the reception Of the S~chleswigers in
the town rather than to private individu-
ais. HospltabIe reception being thus Sc
cured, the number of intending visitors
rapidly increased. Danish calculations
estimate that $50 ccme from the town
and parish of Hadersleben, 800 from
Apenrade and the vicinity, $50 from
AlSen and Sundewitt, and 800 from the
neighbourhood of Flensburg. Many more
would have participated if the lists had
not been hastily closed, on account of the
impossibillty Of furnishing means O%ftrans-
port for a large number"
A Copenhagen dispatch of Tuesday
evening says:-EThe banquet given by
the Inhabitants of this city in honour OF
the guests from Schleswig has just ter
minated. Five thousand persons were
invited. The number of spectators was
enormous, and general enthusiasm pre-
vailed. During the banquet a cougratu-
latory telegram was received from l 1000
