Essence Of Jamaica Ginger !

H- This valuable preparation, containing IN
a highly concentrated form all the properties OF
the Jamaica Ginger, has become one OF the most
popular domestic remedies for all diseases OF the
stomach and digestive organs. :,
As tonic, it will be found invaluable TO all
persons recovering from debility, whether pro-
duced by fever or otherwise, for whilst it mparts
to the system all the glow and vigor that can be
produced by wine or brandy, it is entirely free
from the reactionarY efforts that follow the use
of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females VINO
suffer from difficult menstruation, giving almost
immediate relief to the spasms that so frequent
ly accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding in a railroad car, by sea-sickness, or
other causes. 1t is also valuable as an external
application for Gout, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, ETC.

Bark Fredonia, Capt. Burke, arrived here to-
day from Fayal, and reports January first, lat.
Al 30, Ion. So, fell in with the British ship Graf
10th for New prk, in leaky condition, and
it being heavy weather and the ship laboring
hard in high sea, Capt. Burke was requested
to lay by and take off crew and passengers, to
which he assented. The crew of the ship
comprised 33 persons, and she had 273 emf
grant passengers, making total of 300. Ow-
ing to rough weather the process of transfer
ring SO large number Of people from one YES
sci to another was not completed until the Sd.
1t was three days before the wreck was fallen
in with, but they were all finally rescued and
brought to this port.
Captain Burke displayed great magnanimity
on the occasion, and his conduct throughout
was marked by kindness, having got all hands
off safely. 1t was found impossible to stow
away SO many people on board his vessel,
which was small sized bark, but he courage
ously took the responsibility to throw over suf-
ficient cargo to make room for them, and near
ly all the goods between decks went overheard.
All hands were then put on short allowance,
as his own stores were getting low and no pro-
visions were saved from the ship to feed the
hungry emigrants. Each person was allotted
half pint of water and one biscuit per day,
which is the only sustenance they have receiv-
ed for the past eleven days. AS soon as the
above facts became known after the bark was
telegraphed below this port, a steamer was
despatched to tow her up, and on her arrival
the survivors were placed in Riddles large car

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. Is.
The Alexandria Democrat publishes a letter
from Gen. w. L. Sherman to a friend in the
Rapides Parish, in which he contradicts the
general impression that his appointment as
Superintendent of the Louisiana Militarv
Academy at Alexandria before the war was
due to Bragg or Beauregard. He also contro-
verts the impression that, when he left Louis
lana, he was pledged not to enter the service
against the South. He did say, at Alexandra.
that war would be the inevitable rule of seces,
sion; and, at New Orleans, on the eve of his
departure for st. Louis, he might have said to
Bragg that he was not going North to seek
military service, which was true. He refused
to enter the volunteer force first called out by
President Lincoln, because he considered that
the whole South would become involved in a
war which could only be handled by vast at
mics of regular soldiers. n
Gen. Sherman concludes as follows: "I wish
the South well, and, if L have been ascourge
to them, how much better that it was thln
Ben. Butter or some other of that school,"
The San Antonio Herald of the 3dinst.
