WHEN the Plantation Bilters we're
first made known to the American peo-
pie, some seven years ago, it was sup
posed they were an entirely new thing,
and had never before been used. So
far as their general use in the United
States is concerned, this may be true.
1t is also true that the same Bltters
were made and sold in the Island ofSt.
Thomas over forty years ago, as any
old planter, merchant or sea captain
doing business with the West indies
will tell you. 1t is distinctly within
my recollection that on the return of
my father, (who was a sea captain, and
doing an extensive trade in the tropics,)
he would invariably have the Bitters
among the ships stores, and our family
sideboard was never without them.
For any sickness, it matters not how
severe or trifing, the decanter of these
Bitters, by a different name, was al
ways resorted to as sovereign rem
edy.
