MOUNT VERNON, LII, April 9, 17!-Messrs.
j. n. Harris & Co.. Cincinnati, Ohio.-GentIe-
men: 1 heard one OF my customers speak in ssich
nigh terms OF Aliens Lung Balsam to-day, that
thought would write you the substance OF his
statements. He SAYS his mother who is now
sirty years Of age, has SUFFERED with CONsUnfP-
TON Tor SEVERAL YEARS, and has been under
the care OF al oar best D6qstcidns hut never re-
ceived any permanent benefit. then She resorted
70 every kind Of Cough and Lung Balsan that
could be procured for her, bet aU @ no asaiL She
Stlll grew worse until She was confined 10 her
bed; and when she was seized with a parsxvsm
OF coughing, she would lose ne poaer of rssDirq-
t'0H, and they were compelled % resort TO var
ious means TO restore breathing; and while she
cOughed 50 nard she could not eNDorate ANYTHING.
and the family and friends had given up ali hopes
OF her recovery. Her son noticed the advertise
ment OF Aliens Lung Bals1m in the CBristioa
Adrocate, and they thought they would procure
and Try It. They commenced giving her the Bal
sam at O'Clock PM. as directed, a dose every
hour until midnight; then she took another spell
OF coughing, and expectOrated mOuthful Of
dark, yellow matter, which was something she
had not been able to do for some time. They con
timed TO give her the Balsam until morning, and
then she began IN expeet0Tate freely, and within
two hours she had ExPECTORATED TWO PINTs Of
mucous matter, which gave her immediate re-
lief; and since that time she has continued 70
improve. She now sits up all day, and can walk
about the house and take considerable outdoor
exercise. Her son bought more OF The Balsam
to-day, and he Is recommending it very highly TO
every one. Yours respectfully,

DvERTrALL The SUNSHINE LIES

The garden lies In a dreamy rest,
And iaintly its balmy Odors RISE.
The bees move slowly on h0nied quest,
And over it all the sunshine lies.
The air is laden with breath Of flowers;
Ambrosial as though meath summer skies,
A fragrant, siren-song Of dying honrs,
While over them all the sunshine lies.
The vine-leaves gather rusty hue,
They shrffel, and here and there one dies;
Yet still the sky is brilliantly blue,
And over it all the sunshine lies.
The BIRDS glad songs are all Aushed and still.
Their happy notes turned to moprnfal-cries;
And Autumn warnings the landscape I'LL,
Yet over it all the sunshine les
The earth has flushed her summer task
0ffruitage and flowers, and glowing skies,
And now she rests meath drOwsy mask,
While over her warm the sunshine lies.
So when our labor of life is DER,
And backward we turn our fading eyes,
May we rejoice as we near life's shore,
Then over it all the sunshine lies.
The toll and trouble, the pain and strife,
With Joys intermingled-may no sigh
Breathe forth because of our little life,
For over It all may sunshine lie.

THE HORRORS CT ANDERSON
WILLIE,

A letter from Thomas Barlow appears
in the Albany ArqIS, which charges squarely
home upon Ulysses S. Grant the RESPONSE
bility for the horrors Of AndersOnviIe. The
Confederate Commissioners for the ex-
change of prisoners repeatedly urged the
authorities at Washington to permit an ex-
change, but Grant refused to allow it. He
testifies that more lives were lost by Grants
kilograms ethan all the British soldiers
killed in the wars of Napoleon" and ''these
lives were spent as apart of the system of
attack upon the rebellion designed by the
wisdom of the General-in-Chief of the
armies, to destroy it by depletion"
At an early day Grant forbade Butler
to receive any more prisoners on exchange.
Our poor boys in prison were characterized
by Meredith as being thousands of loath-
some skeletons" and our commander re-
fused to exchange them that they might
live.
From the time Grant refused to exchange
in April, 1854, Butler said he sought to ac-
complish an exchange. Butler said ex-
change; the rebel authorities said exchange;
but Grant said no, there should be no ,x-
change.
His policy was to let them starve as
measure to prevent the liberty of rebel
prisoners in our OwD well provisioged
prisons. The final fatal order of Grant,
which was a death-warTant to thous lTds
and thousands Of our soldiers, was on The
18th of August, 1864, which closed The
doors of hope to all prisoners.
Our boys had become so reduced by
starvation and filth as to be deemed ruined
for future service, and therefore were cast
beyond the pale Of humanity in The es,ima-
ton of an aspiring General, who considered
them as dead, and they were deemed lit
only to be left i'll the grave at Anderson
vile. We will let the telegram Of Grant
speak for itself:
''On the subject of exchange 1 differ
from Gen. Hitchcock. 1t is hard on our
men held in Southern prisons not to ex-
change them, but it is humanity to those
left in the ranks to fight our battles. Every
man released on parole or otherwise be-
comes an active soldier at once, either
directly or indirectly. If we commence a
system of exchange which liberateS al pris-
ousrS taken, we viii have to fight until the
| South is eXterminated. If we hold those
caught, they amount to more than dead
| men. At this particular time to release all
rebel prisoners North would compromise
! our safety here. ~. S. GRANT,
! Lieutenant General"
! This inhUman order caused the death Of
| at least twenty thousand men. Butler
puts the figures higher.
