said David of old. He was probably prompted
to make the above remark after trying some
unreliable catarrh remedy. Had he been per-
mitted to live until the present day, and tried
Dr. Sage's Remedy, he might have had better
opinion of mankind. We claim that no case of
catarrh can withstand the magic effects of this
wonderful medicine. One trial of it will con-
vince you of its efficacy. By druggists; fifty

That Prize Flag.

To THE EDITOR: ! saw an article by Com
rade c. E. Bassett, 124th H., in regard to a
slken banner offered TO the regiment that did
the best drilling. He fails to state that the
3lst ILL.,, Gen. Logaus old regiment, then COM
manded by Col. Robert n. Pearson drilled with
the l2ith for that flag and WON it, and it was
decided by the judges that the 3lst III. did the
best drilling; bu: the jadgcs gave the flag to
the 12ith because they had on new clothes,
shoes BACKED, their braSses" shined up, and
their pay-roils around their necks. Comrades,
you all know what it means. When our Colo
nel WAS drilling bis regiment the Colonel of
the 124th might have been seen galloping over
TO our regiment TO take points in drill from our
Colonel. Comrades of the old 3lst will bear
me out in this assertion. Should Col. r. n.
Pearson, OF Chicago, ILL.,, see this / would like
him TO speak up. i am not aware that the flag
was captured. The comrade also says that there
were l3 regiments engaged in that drill, but
there were only two; everything is as fresh in
my mind as though it occurred yesterday
MITCHELL S. BARNEY, Co. K, 31st Ill.
From ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.
To THE EDITOR: The drill of the brigade to
which the l2ith III. belonged occurred Jan. 20,
1864, az the Black River, and the 124th was then
declared the best drilled regiment in that bri-
gade. On the next day the Second Brigade
drilled on the river bottom, just below Vicks-
burg, and the next day the Third Brigade
drilled in the same place. By this means the
three best regiments were selected and on JAM
%, on the same ground, these three regiments
drilled. They were the 12lth and 18th H.,
and the 18th Ohio, and the l2ith was declared
the best drilled, and Gen. Mcpherson then pre-
seDted 10 it prize flag and made the regiment
. highly complimentary speech. The writer
stood near enough TO hear the speech.-A. L.

FImtter Among the Wholesale Liquor
Dealers.

The discovery of the Moxie Nerve Food Plant,
and its acceptance by the retail dealers on account
of a better profit, make the wholesale rum trade
very uneasy In Lowell where the Moxie Extract
is prepared from the plant the sale OF liquor has
fallen off nearly one half and growing worse eve
nv day The old drinkers find the Moxie more pal
atable; satisfies their nervous system better; Ut
terly destroys the thirst for simuants cures er-
vous exhaustion; leaves no reaction or slaylsh ap-
petiteS; makes them strong, vigorous and hungry,
fatigue. This naturally weans them from liquor.
The church ,clergymen and all the moral associa-
lions advocate the Mexe by every means in their
mower. Its results have created the most intense
excitement all over New England and the Middle
States and to help along, the proprietors have
agreed to sell it at the Smallest possible profit.
10000 bottles have been used in Lowell in nine
months. The wholesale druggists. predict the
country will use 1900 600 bottles this year. 1t
is appearing in the druggists windows now,
