    MISCELLANEOUS WAR NEWS.
From Fortress Monroe*
Fortress Monroe, March o. —By the steamer
Mount Vernon , which arrived yesterday after
noon) we hear of a serious accident to the steamship
Mississippi, chartered by the Government to
carry troops to Ship Island, which soiled hence,
with General Bailor and staff on hoard) a few days
since. On Friday morning last, she ran on the
Frying Pan shoals, staving a large hole in her
hows. She was hauled off by the Mount Vernon ,
and proceeded on her voyage on Saturday after
neon.
The Mississippi was provided with water tight
compartments, and she would probably reach Port
Royal in safety, where her troops can ho disem
barked and tho damage repaired. Hor captain,
named Fulton, is suspected of having intentionally
run her ashore. The vessel was placed in charge
of an officer of the Mount Vernon , who will take
her to her destination.
The Mount Vernon left Wilmington, N. C , on
Monday last. The Famandina was still there,
and the sloop-of-war Ja.mcstown was blockading
New Inlot. The State of Gemsbofc) and
Albatross were at Beaufort.
The Mount Vernon had not received a mail for
forty days.
The Mount Vernon took a prize on Friday last —
the Brrim schooner British Queen —which was
attempting to run the blockade. She was sect,
with a prize crew, to Philadelphia. The crew of
the schooner were brought here by the Mount
Vernon .
The steamship Constitution sailed to-day.
Tho Suwannee arrived this morning, and it is
expected will sail for Ifutteras to-night,
The steamer Flora arrived from New York this
morning. She carries the rovenuo flag.
The flag of truce which was sent out yesterday
afternoon did not have any communication with
the enemy.
A magnificent set of colors, consisting of an
American flag and a blue flag with the arms of the
city of New York, was presented to the Tenth
New York Regiment, this afternoon, by General
Wool. They were presented by tho city of New
York. Appropriate speeches were made by Gone*
ral Wool and Colonel Bendix, and the whole affiir
passed off with complete success.
The Pursuit of Price The Battle of
Sugar Creek.
The following interesting details of tho pursuit of
Priqe ; and' of the battle at Sugar Creek, are taken
from the special correspondence of the Missouri
Democrat
THE RETREAT AND PURSUIT,
In leaving Springfield, General Prioe undoubt
edly supposed he could make good his retreat
without molestation, thinking, most likely, that
General Curtis would be so much pleased with the
recapture of the town, that he would remain several
days and glorify In fact, many of our own officers
and meD. expected as a mutter of course, the army
would halt some time. But Price “had reckoned
without bis host,” and our officers did not yet
understand their leader. The same night of our
arrival came erderg to march at daybreak the
following morning, the divisions of Generals Sigel
and Asboth taking the Mt. Vernon road, while
those of Generals Jeff C. Davis and Carr took the
direct route to Cassville. Pushing rapidly forward,
twelve o'clock of that day fouod the latter'divisions
passing the famous battle-field of Wilson's Creek,
where the enemy had bimaccd the night pre
vious, leaving only that morniDg. Here the camp
fires were still burning, much of the meat that had
been killed for the troops lying about uncooked,
with every evidence of having left “ in something
of a hurry.”
CLOSE UPON THE ENEMY
Marching on, 6 o’clock brought us to Dug Springs,
where we were preparing to bivouac, when a mes
senger announced that our cavalry had overtaken
the enemy, and urging the infantry forward. Hun
ger, fatigue, and ~all was forgotten. Onward we
pushed, never halting until 12 o’clock that night.
The division of General Davis was in the advance,
with the cavalry of Colonel Ellis and Major Mc-
Connell. The enemy, it seems, had halted on CrAno
Creek, aDd here were captured quite a number of
prisoners. First was the rebel Colonel Freeman, so
well known os the marauder at Salem, below Rolla.
Our pickets were close upon the enemy’s camp, and
Freeman’s horse, escaping from him, ran up tke
road, followed by the colonel. In a very few mo
ments ho was on his way to headquarters. Soon
after came a dapper little major, walking right up
to our pickets, and asking it they could show him
General Price’s headquarters. “Certainly,” was
the reply, and in a trice he was boforo General
Curtis. Afterwards our men captured an engineer
and several other eommistioned officers.
TRICE MAKES A STAND,
Had not the night been so terribly dark, it is
more than likely Gen. Curtis would have attacked
the enemy, but he determined not to be drawn
into an ambuscade. Tbe troops lay on their arms
awaiting tbe break of day. At tm early hour,
Febiuary 15th, -the column moved forward, but
during the night Price had again fled, leaving a
large proportion of his camp equipage, and a num
ber of wagons. During that day the chase was
very exciting, there being constant skirmishing
between our advance and his rear guard. The
load wne strewn with broken wagons, dead aud
dying mules and horses, and every conceivable
kind of goods. At four o’clock in the afternoon,
the booming of cannon notified us that Price had
made a stand. The Dubuque battery was pushed
forward, and for an hour we had a fine artillery
fight. By the time our infantry got up, the enemy
had. precipitately fled. On the lfith inst, we
pushed on. finding many evidences of the ha3ty
flight in that day’s march. During the afternoon
our cavalry again overtook the rebels at Cross
Timbers, aid here was made a gallant charge by
Col. Harry Pease and forty men. Coming on the
enemy's picket they drove - it ia, dashing at once
in the very midst of his camp. One of Qqr n}§q,
a lieutenant of cavalry, was wounded, and five op
six horses killed. The enemy’s loss was much
greater. This charge was really one of tho most
brilliant things that occurred on the route On
tbe !7Lh inst. we had several skirmishes, and at
last discovered the enemy in position on the south
side of Sugar Greek.
THE CAVALRY CHARGE AT SUGAR CREEK,
Ihe valley through which Sugar Creek pursues
its meandering course i 3 nearly half a mile in width
at Trott’s store. From the brow of the opposite
ridges the distance is somewhat more, as the road
winds. Skirmishing between the pickets of the two
armies occurred during the morning when Price
moved out of sight beyond the brow of the south
western hills. His army, as was since ascertained,
then formed in two lines on both sides of the road,
and two Louisiana regiments, under command of
Col. Louis Herbert, which had arrived from Cross
Hollows to reinforce Price, marched with their bat
teries, determined to give us a warm reception.
Two of the enemy’s cannon were planted on the
brow of the hill overlooking Sugar Creek, and their
pieces wero also ranged along the road, about two
hundred yards apart, forhalf a mile or more. These
pieces had prolongs attaehed, indicating that a run
ning fight was intended in case of pursuit.
Our cavalry, Tcgardless of danger, plunged for
ward to the charge on the enemy’s position, mostly
screened by the intervening woods. Nothing could
have withstood the impetuosity of such a charge,
had“not our advance, led by Col. Eilis, when de
bouching from the woods into the opon field, been
met by a murderous fire poured in upon their ranks
from behind the trees. Our loss was severe in kill
ed and wounded at this point. Inevitable destruc
tion, without a chance to resist so galling n fire,
caused our brave men to recoil, when Col. Ellis,
with great coolness and pfeaeneo of mind, ordered
his men to right and left and scour the woods. The
order was obeyed with telling effect on the enemy,
many of whom were cut down behind their places
of concealment, and the rest fled. Meantime, Mai.
McConnell, with his battalion, left the road, and
deploying to the left, advanced on the enemy’s line,
while Majors Wright and Bolivar performed the
same metauvre on the right.
FLIGHT OS’ THE ESEIIV
Two regiments of infantry arrived to support the
cavalry, and formed in line. Colonel Phelps’ regi
ment deployed on the left of the road, and Lieut.
Col. Herron, with the Ninth lowa, deployed on the
right- Capt. Hayden, of the Dubuque battery,
answered the enemy’s batteries, which had opened
upon our advancing columns, with a brisk fire.
The cannonading was kept up for a few minutes,
when the enemy precipitately fled, taking away
most of his killed. Other regimonts were coming
into tho field to take part in the ball. Among the
latter was the Fourth Iowa; the men anxious for
the fray, had pulled off their coats and threw them
aside. There is little doubt that if the rebels had
been followed np closely, the ront would have been
complete, and no time would have been given them
to burn tbeir barracks at Cross iloljwj, As I have
given a list so far as ascertained of our killed and
wounded, it is unnecessary fo repeat it.
The Colonel Herbert, who commanded the rebel
brigade, was the gentleman of California notoriety,
who slew the waiter, at Willard’s Hotel, a fe’w
years since. The other Confederate colonels under
him In tho fight were Mcßae and McNair.
Ben McCulloch arrived from Fort Smith the day
before the fight at Sugar Creek, but did not par
ticipate in any part of the action, except the re
treat. He insisted on making a stand at Cross Hol
lows, but Price objected.
Rebel Vessels Destroyed in Bull’s Bay.
Flag officer Dupont forwards the following to the
Navy Department:
U. S. Batik Restless, off Bull’s Bay, S. C.,)
Saturday, February 15,1862. j
Sin : I have the honor to report that on tho 13th
inst.,about il o’clock A. M.,we discovered a vessel
H'horc on a shoal in Bull’s Bay. I sent two armed
boats in for tho purpose of reconnoitring, and, if
possible, to bring her off. On boarding they found
her to be a very old and worthless craft, without a
cargo, and with only four negroes on board. While
on board the sloop, they discovered three vessels
lying at anchor inside The shoals, apparently laden
with rice, Ac. At 1.30 A. M., on tho 14th inst I
sent another aimed vessel, with orders to cut these
vessels out or destroy them. There not being
enough wind all day to bring them out, they were
destroyed after dark, and their flags, papers. And
arms taken in the boat and brought off with two
prisoners. The following are the names of the ves
sels destroyed, with their cargoes, which consisted
of rice for the city of Charleston: Sloop Etlislo ,
1,600 bushels rice, Bunk; schooner I Vamio, 1,800
huihelc rice: eehconer li 'lUakth, 1,800 bushels
rice, _sunk; schooner T/woriore. Stoney , 2.500 bush
els rice. The schooner Theodore Slovey was a fine
craft of 54 tons, but could not be got cut, as there
was a battery of three gunß near her anchorage.
She was consequently burned. Their respective
crews were all foreigners and negroes, and, not
having room enough in the boat to bring them off,
they were set ashore, and allowed to retain their
personal effects, except arms. In closing, I feel it
iny duty to mention tho efficient manner in which
nty orders were carried out by Acting Muster's
Mates Henry Eason and J. Walter Mackie, and to
call your attention to the same.

and 120 pieces of cannon, light and heavy.
Behind the batteries, along the Potomac, there

one brigade of infantry of 3,500 men.
These forces do not include any part of Jack

which Gen. Banks is operating.
At Manasgas there is not a single full regiment,
whole companies, and even regiments, having gone

Fmther Particulars of the Recent Fight
Near Pittsburg, Tennessee.
Several days ago we puhlishod a short telegraphic
report of a fight, between tho Union forces and the
rebels, .near Pittsburg, Tennessee. The corres
pondent Of the Cincinnati Commercial) writing
from onboard the gunboat Conestoga on the Cum
berland river, under date of March Ist, says:
We found this to bo county election day here,
(Harden county, Tcnu..) and tho loyal fearod an
interruption by the cavalry, of whom I have before
spoken. Wb remained until 11 A. M , and now
(evening) leave. The Union majority vote is with
out a parallel in this county.
It was reported here that there were five thou
sand rebels at Pittsburg, ten miles above here, with
some heavy cannon; that they were fortifying, aud
wo went to ascertain. Tho Memphis and Charles
ton railroad is only eight miles back of Pittsburg.
When the Taylor and Lexington wore within oae
and a half miles of the robel oncampment they
opened fire upon us. We replied with about au
equal number of guns, but of larger size and longer
roDgo. The firing was rapid, and ours so well
directed, that in half an hour we silenced their bat
teries, drove them to the bills, and out of sight.
We mbved on. up the river. It was a vigorous
and interesting fight, thus far.
We could distinctly see the dead and wounded
in considerable numbers, and our men were un
harmed. * '
The rebels were upon a high bluff, with deep
ravines in the rear, where their tents and the men
(after the latter were driven back) could not be
seen from the river.
3 here were about one hundred soldiers and armed
gunboat men sent on shore in the small boats. They
went up on the bluff, u double quick,” and over the
brow, (from tho river,) where H was very precipit
ous, and covered with a dense growth of small
limber and bushes. In less time than I write it,
they were charged upon by vastly superior num
bers, and wisely returned to tho small boats. The
rebels followed to the brow of the bluff, (towards
the river,) where was re-enacted the covering of
the retreat by the gunboats at Belmont. Our men
saw many dead and wounded while on the bluff,
where we drove them from their guns, and wc saw
many fall during the last attack. The Federal loss
is two non-commissioned officers killed, four of the
Taylor 1 s men wounded, (one dangerously, one has a
leg amputated, and the other two slightly.) three of
our {Lexington's) men missing, (one or two proba
bly killed.)
When the rebels fled behind the bluff and into
the woods, tbe gunboats could do no raoro, and re
turned to this place, (Savannah,) but. you will boar
more of Pittsburg on the Tennessee river, if tho
rebels remain there many clays. There are some
things connected with it, both past and future,
which arejiot proper to mention now.
Nashville as it is —A Ruined and Deserted
Says the observant correspondent of the St. Louis
. ’Republican , who writes from Nashville :
It is rather odd, sitting down to write in what
was going to be the rebel capital. Way out iu
Tennessee, past two formidable forts that were to
sick the whole Yankee nation, at a town whose
name is familiar as that of Charleston, in Secession
chronicles, a Union army rests on the last day of
February. The great advance guard of a mighty
host is pausing hero a moment on its triumphal
march to the Gulf States.
Wandering around in tho streets of Nashville,
I met crowds of negroes hastening to the levee to
gee Lincoln’s war vessels. A pretty large number of
those poverty-stricken ones known among the sooty
race as “poor white trash,” were mingled with
them, and a few well-dressed citizons passed along.
But tb e pride and wealth of the place had fled South
ward. Dressed in citizens’ clothes, I had no diffi
culty in entering into conversation; but I noticed
that soldiers carefully avoided, Asking the
reason, of an intelligent, honest looking man, he
said none dare talk with the Unionists, for fear of
being murked as spies, and punished when the
troops were withdrawn.
For the present, at least. Nashville may be con
eidcrcd warmly secession, aud the now smothered
fire is ready at any moment to break out. Those
that give any symptoms at all of loyalty are the
poorer classes ; the rich ones, although ruin spreads
around on every side, seem determined to follow
on in the path they have chosen. Among the late
relugees was John Bell, who, with his companions,
fled to Memphis.
Everything Idle.
There are no fortifications around the city, ex
cept a half-completed earthwork on the opposite
biiDk. Manufactories, distilleries, everything con
nected with industry, is idle. A considerable quan
tity of rebel commissary stores is being, and has
been taken possession of, but tho most valuble lots
were distributed among, or seized by the people,
last Sunday. The forces here are ten thousand
men under General Nelson, and part of Gen.
Buell’s command. Gen. Smith’s division, from
Clarksville, is now arriving. Where the enemy are
now concentrating is not definitely known, but the
main body is thought to be at Chattanooga, one
hundred »nd eighty miles distant. Small bodies,
acting as skirmishers, swarm through the surround
ing country, constantly meetmg our pickets. The
inhabitants around also take every opportunity to
shoot sentinels, and several are already missing,
being either killed or captured.
Great changes have come over Nashville since
they adopted new protectors. From being a busy
mart, receiving and pouring out tho wealth of a
vast tract of country, it has become a deserted
city, mutilated terribly by war—streets silent,
market places empty, stores dosed. Ruin appears
at step, and shabby gentility 6? bfokeh down
tradesmen pass along the neglected promenades of
fashion. It is difficult to describe the state of af
fairs, where all so completely reaches the acme of
confusion, desolation, doubt, and ill-will, as at
Nashville. Union feeling, there is none, and the
people do not protend to show any.
Flight of the Governor.
About one-third of the inhabitants are here—the
balance fled southward. Tennessee’s Legislature,
and her unprincipled Governor, who were in Con
vention assembled when Fort Donelson fell, are
among tho refugees. Memphis holds the lawgivers
until That moment, now near, when cities still
nearer the sea will be found necessary for health.
Governor Harris is tearing the laurel wreath of
fast- running from Claib Jackson’s brow. Finding
his first flight premature, he returned, and while
gathering some papers at the court house, was
alarmed by a, rumor of approaching gunboats. Ho
immediately fled down the hill, leaving hat and cane
in the rack, and a bridge across the creek having
been washed away, crossed in a skiff, and, taking
the train in waiting, sped oil', leaving three or four
companions behind. This is the story told by the
citizens, who, although rebellious as ever, are
greatly exasperated at their Governor for burning
the bridges.
A Canadian Paper on Jeff Davis’ Inau
gural.
The Montreal Gazette, a paper whioh has made
itself notorious by its defence of the rebels, and its
continual abuso of the whole loyal people of this
country, in tho course of an editorial on J elf Davis’
message, says:
“ AVith regard to Mr. Davis’ inaugural, it is a
document which does no disgrace to the high posi
tion whioh he occupies. It is only a matter of doubt
whether it be mere rhetoric —fine words to tickle
the ears of the multitude—or is a fair exposition of
the tone and temper of the people. If they are
imbued with the spirit which characterizes this de
liverance ef- their Chief Magistrate, the North is a
loDg way off the success whioh’it seems now to
think is just within its grasp; but if the recent
Etanipcde in Tennessee is a better index of the peo
ple’s devotion to the cause, we have seen the last,
as well as the first, of the inaugurals of Confederate
Presidents.”
The East Baltimore Conference
[Correapondtnco of Tho Press.]
Baltimore:, Match 5,1862
The fifth annual session of the East Baltimore
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church com
menced this morning in this city. Religious ser

THE CITY.
MANUFACTURE OF GOVERNMENT ARMS AT
BRIDESBURG.
EIGHT HUNDRED MEN AT WORK
Wo have referred in xlio«o cohtnui", at different t'mes,
to Hie forthcoming manufacture of Springfield rifles at
tbe immense machino works of Alfred .Tanks and Sou, at
Bridcsbnrg. It seems that Active operations commenced
on Monday last, at this establishment, and upward* of
seven hundred hands are now laboring daily upon these
weapons of death.
The establishment of Jenks & Co. was formerly en
gaged Iu tho manufacture of machinery for tho weaving
of cotton ntid woollen good*, and was the uioal extensive
establishment of its kind on the continent. When the
war commenced, labor dwindled in this branch of manu
factures, and the firm decided to remodel their machi
nery, so ns to produce rifles of tbe most improved pat
tern. Mr. Jenks accordingly proceeded to Springfield.
Massachusetts, where, by favor of the Government, he
wan allowed to make model* of tho machinery there
In operation, and examine Into the manner of construc
tion of muskets and rifles.
Bine months time and attention have been given by
tho mcmhorß of the firm exclusively to the preparation
of their woiks for manufacturing those muskets—aud the
amount of capital-invested by them iu the business will
appear in the annexed statement;
Beal estate, steam engines, &c ...^*300,000
New gun machinery and tools 177,000
Iron, steel, and materials on hand 30,0(10
The establishment had, previous to the making of these
arrangements, secured a contract from the War J depart
ment for the manufacture of 50,000 muskets at S-0 each.
Tide contract was made directly betwson the Department
and the firm of Alfred Jenks & Son, composed of Barton
11. Jenks mid Joseph ft. Mitchel. Mr. Burton H. Jenks
has been for many yems engaged in the manufacture of
iren work by machinery: aud of patterns similar to tho
pints of muskits. Much of this work, requires nice and
cartful construction and accurate ndjnatim>nt. The firm
voluntarily placed itself at the command of the Govern
ment, and offered at an early day after the breaking out
of the lebcllion, to manufacture muskets of tlie present
Springfield model at $2O a piece. They have made every
provision for doing tho work themselves, and for faith
fully carrying out their contract.
The Bridesburg works are pleasantly and eligibly
situated, llie premises being four hundred feet square,
containing about four acres, and located in the imme
diate neighborhood of the United States arsenal at
Bridesburg.
The main building is four hundred feet long by forty
feet wide, with one wing eighty by forty feet, and the
oilier two hundred aid eight by forty feet. The build
ings are three stories above ground, with a basement
story making four stories. There is a blacksmith and
forging shop, forming the shape of the letter T, one hun
dred anil sixty feet long by fifty feet wide on one part,
sixty feet long by fifty feet on the other, containing fifty
three forges, Beven trip hammers, six dead falls or drops,
and a Dix cutting press. In this department all the
forging is done except for the gun-barrels. This depart
ment bas been in operation for several months past, and
has produced twelve thousand sets of all the iron and
steel pieces composing the gun.
Ninety men are employed here, and dow are turning
out every day, working ten noun, two hundred complete
Lets of all the forged pieces composing the musket.
This department is thoroughly lighted by gas, there
being 85 burners. The forges and trip-hammers are
newly constructed, and are exact counterparts of thoso
at the Springfield Armory. The drop-hammers consti-
Ulte «I) over Hie Springfield fire,?, being
tbe “ Milo Peck Now Haven drop.”
The annealing and case-hardening room is a separate
building, 42 feet long by 16 feet wide, with 9 tiros for
case-hardening and annealing, and vats for pickling the
forges.
The tempering room is also a separate building, 20
ftet wide by 50 feet long, containing six tempering forges
and a blueing furnace, and three tempering vats, of cop
per. These tempering vals of copper contain oil the
vats being enclosed in wooden tubs, through which a
constant stream of cold water Hows, to preserve the even
temperament of the oil.
These forges and furnaces and tempering vats are
newly constructed, and are counterparts of those used at
the Springfield Armory. Ten men are employed in this
department. The forging, annealing, and tempering de
partments coit &20,G00.
The stock-making machinery is also made in imitation
of tho Springfield machinery, and embraces twenty
three machines—viz, odo sawiug machine, one center
ing machine, two machines for turning the parts of tho
gui above tho lock, and two for the parts below tho lock,
one for spotting, two for barrel bending, one profiliug
machine, on© second-sawing or butt-plate shaper, one
butt-pbite boring and tapping machine, one lock-bedding
machine, one fm* guard-plats bidding, one Fa* taming
between bands, one for turniDg on bands, four second
turning machines below the lock, two ditto abtve the
lock, one ramrod grooving-machine. Total twenty
three machines, which cost $32,000.
These machines have been running three weeks, and.
are capable of turning out two hundred complete gun
slocks every ten hours. This department employs
eighty men.
In the lock-making department there are 22 milling
machines, counlerpaits of the Springfield machinery.

Piracy in the Chesapeake Bay.—
Quito a number of outrages have recently been porpe-
Irated on citizens of by tho gangs of despe
rate and bad men who infest tho shores of the Chesa
peake, and are constantly seizing vessels on tho pretext
of a violation of the laws of Maryland with respect to tin
dragging of oysters. The vosaele, so tak* n without auy
legal AUihonty, aro robbed of trnir cargoes, and thou
sold, the proceed* being divided among tho ganga who
made (lie capture. If to high lime tt at the Kodoral Go
vernment should provide some moan* by which those en
gaged in tlm legitimate business of fishing oysters should
be protected from the piratical forays of tae graceless
vagabonds who unfortunately have been too long allowod
to infest the waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Quito a
number of lives bare been lost within the past few weeks
in consilience of tlio terror watermen have of aackint
n harbor on this lmy in stormy weather, fearing that
their property would be seized bv the pirates Six of
the ere* of the schooner Mary Elizabeth were lo«t in
tho storm that prevailed ten days ;\go. They parisliod
In consequence of a dread they had lo going to Annapo
lis, which point they could easily have mad©, aud thus
saved their lives, If tbe authorities of Maryland aro
incompetent to lire task or pm tins an end to these ilcN
of piracy and punishing tho offenders, it is clearly tho
duty of the Government, at Washington to do it. Tho
vessels engaged iu catching oysters In this bay take out
and pay tho Government the licenses required hv our
maritime laws, and enrejyic la the duty of the Govern
ment to afford them ample‘protectionin the prosecution of
tlirir legitimate calling.
SiDca writing the above, wo leant that five of Ihe crew
of a rhilmlolphift oyster boat wero drowned in tho lait
storm, being afraid to go into a harbor on the Lav in
consequence of the pirates, who have full sway at all tho
harbors in tbe vicinity.

the county Down, and was the son of a disSeut

The message of the Governor of .Newfound
land represents that colony in an unenviable con*
dilion. The people were impoverished by the
failure of the fisheries, and the rivalry of the
French fishermen, and also by the closing of the
Southern ports to their markets. Political parties
quarrel over the criminal proceedings against the
election rioters, and sectarian bitterness prevails to
a fearful extent The Governor recommends that
the peopU rirtttld U agriculture instead of
ii.-king; hut as the island is composed of much
rock and little earth, the advice is hardly feasible.

The repugnance of most patients to COD-LIVES
OIL, and the inability of many to taka it at all. has in
duced various forms {of disguise for its administration
that are familiar to the Medical Profession. Some of
tlu m answer in special cases, but moro often tholvehide
neutralize* the usual effect of tho Oil, proving quite as
mipaiat&blo and of loss therapeutic value. The repug
nance, nausea, &c., to invalids, induced by disgust of the
Oil, is entirety obviated by tho use of our CAPSULES.
COP-LrVEB OIL CAPSULES have been much need
lately in Europe, the experience there or the good’re
sults from their use in both hospital and private practice,
aside from tho naturally suggested advantages, are suf
