''Pasc hall's Fever and Ague Mixture, " INTO rming
him OF the manner in which 1 had become
qaainted with it, recounting the tests to which it
had been subjected, and pointing out the names
of those who recomme nd ed 1T, several OF them,
men Of the highest character, and of national
reputation and, suggested, that If, by his dI-
rection, it could be put on the supply list OF me-
dicines for the army, 1t might be found extremely
useful in contributing to the health of the troops
operating in miasmatfc districts.
The names of Henry c. Carey, Jay Cook, Gov.
Pollock, and Geo. II Stuart Extensively known
as President of the Christian Commission, } were
particularly Indicated and especial attention
called to the letter of the latter. Mr.. Lincoln
looked over tGe several letters, dwelling some
what that of Mr.. Stuart's, and at length OBJ
ssrved, that the '.MiIture' appeared to be highly
recommended, and by men who do not DO such
| things on slight grounds; and, after pleasant
remark In his peculiar vein, added, that II would
not be proper tor him to make a positive order on
the Medical Bureau, but that he would 60 as tar
as he thought 1t was proper Tor han to go. Then
| folding up the papers he wrote the back of
Them and signed the recommend dation, copy OF
which herewith send you. The original / will
| keep, and present ltto the Surgeon General.

to advertising your sFMixture - and cease to hes-
tate to make known its m erits the public thro'
the ordinary channels. Yours respectfully,
| JOSEPH J. LEWIS.
