REMARKABLE VIsIoN.-A city paper, yesterday, |
under the caption So Prophecies" gave US some
facts concerning the predictions of Nostradamus,
Thomas Lister, Joseph Hoag and the inscription
on the inside of the Connecticut box. As the
article in the Louisville Journal, which led to the
one referred to above, is attracting considerable
attention throughout the country, it may be fit
and proper time to publish, in connection with it,
the particulars of most remarkable vision which
have been withheld through prudential motives.
By consent of all parties interested the following
facts are now made known:
Many of our citizens will remember that, about
ten years ago, Last Island was inundated and
several lives were lost by the catastrophe The
husband of highly gifted lady Of this city was
on a visit to the island at the time and was one Of
the number lost. When the intelligence reached
the devoted wife she Immediately swooned, and re-
manned in this trance condition for several hours or
long after every restorative had been used in vain
When, at last, she regained her senses and her
voice, she stated privately to few friends that
she had seen her husband since he was drowned,
and had had long conversation with him; that
he was perfectly happy, and was, in fact, glad
that death had separated his soul from this trOu-
blesome world, Z" for" said he, "great changes
will soon take place in which do not wish to be.
come an actor, and if l had remained on earth
could not have avoided them. The South will soon
become arrayed against the North, but after four
years hard fighting it will become subdued, not,
however, until hundreds of thousands of valuable
lives have been sacrificed. Then the rebellion
will be transferred from the South to the dominant
party in the North, which will continue to wage
warfare against the subdued until new form of
government shall put an end to the power of the
Northern fanatical portion of this great country.
do not wish TO live to see that day, Hence, ]
rejoice that am where am. As it is decreed,
dear wife, that you are to witness these things
have Just described, try and sustain and compose
yourself as much as possible, and, as mnch de-
ponds upon your bodily health while enduring
; these great worldly changes, do not make use o.
any medicines until James CONCEAL establishes
himself at No. 20 St. Charles street, New Orleans
His medicines will prolong your days. Fare

THE ANGosTURA AROMATIC B1TTERs.-We are
inclined to believe that when these bitters were
discovered the very ultima thule was reached in
their line. They add an exceedingly pleasant
favor to wine and liquors, while their medicinal
qualities are such as to recommend them to all
who suffer from the many diseases brought on by
a disordered stomach. Peculiarly adapted to per
sons afflicted with loss of appetite and energy
caused by the eneryating effects of this climate,
they act like charm in giving yigor and life to
the weak and emaciated. The Angostura bitters
have obtained great popularity wherever they
have been introduced, and already are suppressed
iag those of Boxer and Others for wines and cock
tails, in many of our most popular barrooms.
Messrs. W H, Henning & Co., Nos. 95 and 81
Camp street, are the agents for these bitters in
this city, and are prepared to furnish them in any
quantity. Sec advertisement on another page.
