I'm the battle of Cedar Maintain

I'm the battle of Cedar Mountain,
fought on August 9, 1862, the 2Sth Regi.
ment of New York Volunteers, after
losing nearly half its officers and men.
including its Colonel, was captured, to-
gether with its regimental flag. Tho
flag bore no name or inscription, bur.
the men who carried it cuta piece out Of
one corner before it passed out of their
possession, so that it might be identified.
1t was never seen again by any member
OF the regiment until few DAYS ago
Col. E. +. Brown, who was Lieutenant
Colonel of the 28th New York at the bat
tie of Cedar Mountain, who lost an arm
in that action, and who has since the
war been the custodian of the piece cut
from the flag, accidentally discovered
the flag itself in this city in collection
of recaptured Union colors found in
Richmond when that city was taken in
1865. He wrote to the Secretary of
War on behalf of the surviving men,
bers of the regiment, asking that the
flag be restored to them. The request
was granted, and in pursuance of an
order issued by Adjutant- General Drum,
the flag was turned over to Col. Brown,
and will be presented to the surviving
members of the regiment at their next
annual reunion.-N. y. Times.

A SUCCESSFUL LAWYER.

He heaped the logic pile on pile, the evidence
still higher,
The counsel on the other side he limited was
liar.
He said his client was well-known gentleman
and scholar
And that his side had never paid their Witness
eSa dollar.
lie told them of the orphans means, the base
opprcssor $ sneers,
And, plIng pathos mountain deep, moved al
the Court to tears
He said: " came not here for fame, nor vet
for patry gold;
But justice is thing, my friends, that never
can be sold:'
And then at the rascality filled with indignant
rage.
Declared the act unparalleled in any previous
age.
lie said that such periured wretch nicer
breathed beneath the sun,
And, rising in his legal might, asked that the
right be done.
He quoted Blackstone, Gritty Bumm, that no
one could dispute,
And said his "chain of reasoning" no lawyer
could refute
He told the honest lawful men" to Judge
alone by fact.
And not be swayed by empty speech and mere
word-iuggling tact.
lie wound up with glowing scene" that
moistened every eye,

To Whom il may Concern!

In the Rochester, n. Y, Democrat and Chron
icle Of December 81, 1851, there appeared a
statement In the form OF card from Dr. j. b,
Henion, of this city, recountng his re-
markabe recovery from Bright's disease OF
the kidneys, after several doctors OF promi-
hence had given him up, by the use Of prep
aration manufactured in this city and known
as Warmers safe Kidney and Liver Cure.
We are personally or by reputation acquaint-
ed with DR.. Hcnion, and we believe he would
publish no statement not literally true We
are also personally or by reputation well ac-
quainted with H. H. Warner q Co., proprie-
tors of this remedy, whose commercial and
personal standing in this community is Of the
highest order, and we believe that they would
not publish any statements, which were not
literally and strictly true in every particular.

There was published in the Rochester Demo-

Bright's disease of the kidneys, almost in its
last stages, by the use OF Warmers Safe Kid
ney and Liver Cure. ! was referred to in that
statement as having recommended and urged
DIR, Henton to try the remedy, which he did,
and was cured.
Now the republishing OF his statement in
many of the leading journals Of the day has
been the cause of an inccssant flow of letters
to me making many inquiries, but chiefly
whether the statement is true, or mere adj
vertising dodge, etc, etc.
| beg, therefore, to anticipate any further
inquiries and save time and labor, and some
postage, by saying that the statement of DR..
Henion is true, so far as it concerns myself,
and | believe it to be true in all other re-
spects. He is parlshoner of mine and
visited him in his sickness. | urged him to
take the medicine and would do the same
again to any one who was troubled with dis
ease OF the kidneys and liver.

Persons should not think lightly of that
feeling of extreme debility so common in the
spring Of the year 1t is often the forerunner
of year Of i'll health It renders The system
very susceptible to disease, and is caused by
the blood being filed with poisonous humors.
The blood, by all means, should he kept
healthy, otherwise its power to assimilate nll-
tritious food becomes impaired, and dyspepsia,
liver-compaint, headache, nervous debility,
extreme languor, weak kidneys, want of phys
ical and mental endurance, and general pros
tration is the result. Since prevention is bet
ter than cure, don't wait for the final result Of
springtime indispOsition, when the first symp-
toms OF languor are manifested, but begin
using DR.. Guysott's Yellow Dock and Sarsapa-
rilla. As spring medicine, it excels all other
remedies, gently but surely expelling the
poisonous blood humors with which the svs-
TEN becomes impregnated, by the incidental
effect of changeable winter weather. 1t makes
the blood red, rich and pure, causes it to cir
culate with more vim, enables it TO renew the
wasted tissues, and carries strength and
vitality to every weakened part of the human
system, restoring impaired bodily functions,
and checking all decay of the urinary digest
i've, and pulmonary organs, which, if neglected
too often ends in premature grave.

until too late. Herelated how a New Orleans
medical professor, lccturing on this disease,
thinking to show his class what healthy fluids
Were, subjected some of his own to chemical
test, and although he had no suspicion OF 1t
before, discovered that he, too, had the dread
ed disease, which proved fatal in less than a
year. There was also an interview with the
celebrated chemist OF the New York State
Board of Health, Dr. 8. A. baltimore, who
said he had analysed the remedy which cured
DR.. Henion, and found that it was entirely
free from any poisonous or deleterious sub
stances.n
We have made these condensations in order
that all the material facts may be set before
our readers. Since the publication of these
two articles, having been besieged with let
ters OF inquiry, we sent a communication to
DIR. Henion and also one to H. H. Warner IL
Co., asking If any additional proof could be
given us as to the validity of the statements
published. In answer thereto we have re-
ceived the following letters, which add inter
est to the entire subject and wholly verify
every statement hitherto made:

cAMEReN's FoRLoRN HOPE.

Don Cameron has been compelled to eat
the humblest of humble pie, despite his
brag about how he would fight the indie.
pendents. Instead of fighting them, the
Regulars have been able to devise nothing
better than proposition to pull down the
whole of their ticket, if the Independents
will do the same, and then both factions
make fresh nominations in harmony. The
Independents have, however, not been able
to see their advantage in this arrangement,
AMI We should have but very poor opin.
ion OF their political judgment if they had.
They have decided that nothing is left for
them but to proceed as they have begun.
They could not agree to Cameron's scheme
without endangering their hold upon public
confidence, and without making it possible
that the Camerons might trick them into
nominating some OF the regular ticket.
The Independent movement was inaugu.
rated to fight "Bossism, and it would
have no further reason for existence if it
coalesced with the Bosses. Its only chance
consists in square, open and thorough
going contest against the Cameron clan. In
such contest it will have the earnest sup.
port of the Independent Republicans, and
it will certainly destroy the Boss rule,
whether or not it can carry the State.
Cameron's last resort has failed, however,
and he knows now that the regular "
ticket is doomed to defeat, and that he
cannot escape the responsibility for this
disaster.

THE SKoBELEFF RUMoR.

A rumor has got abroad in Russia to the
effect that General Skobeleff was poisoned
by the Germans, and this story finds a
great many believers. The reason of this
is that the Russians hate the Germans, and
that ignorant people always are prone to
believe anything evil that is reported
against their enemies. Just SO it was for
centuries firmly believed that the Jews
murdered Christian children at their cele-
bration Of the Feast of the Passover, and
this medieval tradition has been revived
both in Russia and Germany during the
past two years. Just so the old Pagans
reported similar things concerning the
early Christians, and Gnostics. Just SO
the sepoys of Hindostan believed that the
British Government put pork fat into their
cartrilg es, with the malign purpose of
causing them to lose caste through eating
unclean things. And no doubt the Russian
peasants will continue to believe this abb
surd story about Skobelet 3 death, despite
all explanations and it will infame and
keep alive the national enmity until war
gives opportunity for its utilization.
