PLANTATION BITTERs.

This splendid Tonic is used by all classes
of people for every symptom of Stomach out
of order"
The secret of it is this: Plantation Bitters are
certain to correct the juices of the Stomach set all
its machinery at work, and enable it to resist and
throw off the approaching danger. The tendency
of the operations of Nature is always towards
cure all she needs is little assistance at the
proper time. How much more reasonable and
sensible it is to help her along with gentle, yet
powerful Tonic, than to deluge and weaken and
defeat her curative processes with poisonous drugs
and fiery mixtures, which only stupefy and plant
the seeds of disease and DEATH

however, took but very few articles. Some

worded as follows:

dence this morning. Having spent the pre-
vious portion of the night convivally, all my

apartments for money, watches, eteetera, and
took your gem of japanese art from pique

sidewalk in the sand, as people were gazing
curously at it.
If had got to business at l A. NJ. your
house and tina, of your neighbor adjoining
would have been stripped by A. NJ; as it
as, have furnished another illustration of
the folly of attending to business after
pleasure.
Seeing the we'll selected books on your
shelves, the Bible on your etagere, the por-
trait of the immortal Webster on your man
tel, judged that you are neither foreigner
nor Democrat, hence return your property
and pledge my honor never to annoy you
more.

sorrow to the grave if she knew of my miser-
able fate. Yours, lsHNAEL.

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER.

ENHIS valuable preparation, containing in q
l. 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 per-
sons recovering from debility, whether produced by
fever or otherwise for whilst it imparts to the sys-
TEN all the glow and vigor that can be produced by
wine or brandy; it is entirely free from the reac-
tionary effects that follow the use of spirits of apy
kind.
1t Is also an excellent remedy for females who
suiier from difficult menstruaton, giving almost i'm
mediate relief to the spasms that SO frequently
accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding IN railroad car, by sea-sickness, or
other causes.
II Is also valuable an external application for
Gout, rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

marks of General Grant, which possess
both political and historical value:
"Fhe morning that Lee surrendered
hS rode out between the lines aud |
went out and met him, and we had a
couple hours talk. Lee said he hoped I
would offer rs Inagnanimous terms to
tbs other Confederate ARMIES as his had
received. / told him lie should, if he
wished to serve his friends, 20 to other
armies in person and prevail upon them
to surrender. He said he would wish TO
see Mr.. Davis first, didn't encourage a
conference with Mr.. Davis, so that sug-
gestion ended. But what wanted to
call your attention to was this: Lee
thought the Southern people would be
perfectly satisfied to give up all their
property, and all they expected of the
Government was to he secured in life
and right to go back and unmolested
to try to live industriously and peaceably
in this Government But as for erer
