The Army of Virginia—Address
of Gen. Pope to his Soldiers.
WasHiNGToN, July 14—The fol-
lowing address has just been is-
sued :
To the Officers of the Army of Vir-
ginia:
By special assignment of the
President of the United States, I
have assumed the command of |
this army. 1 have spent two
weeks in learning your wherea-
bouts, your condition and your
wants, in preparing you for act-
ive service and in placing you in
positions from which you can act
promptly and to the purpose.
These labors are nearly com-
pleted, and I am about to join you
in the field.
Let us understand each other.
I have come from the West,
where we have always
eracy, to wring from
scrupulous foe
tion which is the birthright of
every independent community.

Trees —Their Uses and Abuses.
It may seem like wasting words at this
time says a correspondent of the German-
town Telegraph ; to revive the old and often
repeated words ** plant trees,” hut are there
not yet some among our readers to whom a
few lines or hints would be of use.
Farmers are improving in their taste
| some, and where years ago the yards ar-
ound their houses were contracted to the
smallest possible space—so as nut to waste
any ground—and one or two trees grew in
close proximity to the house to afford a lit-
tle shade, now we often fiud beautiful lit-
tle enclosures, (not to call them lawns ex-
actly), dotted over with eyergreen and oth-
er trees, and here and there some handsome
bushes or shrubs.
Grain and hay are not everything a farmer
lives for ; and many an otherwise idle mo-
‘| ment may he profitably spent in beautifying
as well as cultivating a farm.
This is as it'should be.
Trees have their uses ; a man who takes
delight in watching the growing and daily
seen the + developing beauties of a group of handsome
backs of our enemies-—from an | trees, planted by hisown hand or ander his
army whose business it has been
to seek the adversary, and to beat
him when he was found—whose
policy has been attack and not
defense. In but one case has the
enemy been able to place our
Western armies in a defensive
attitude.
I presume that I have heen
called here to pur-ue them, and

Address of Jefferson Davis,
TO HIS SOLD:E 8 AFTER THE RECENT BATTLES
NEAR RICHMOND.
Soldiers—I congratulate you
on the series of brilliant victories
which under favor of divine prov
idence you have lately won ; and
ag the President of the Confeder-
ate States, I do hereby tender to
passed safely through all its dangers save
one, the safe storing thereof. Corn has nev-
er promised better at this season than it
does now. Oats, though planed late as a
goneral thing, gives promise of a large crop.
Potatoes are doing their very best, as well
also the smaller crops. Farmers had bet-
ter ree to sowing turnip seee this month and
the beginning of next, for a general crop,
There is not that attention given to this im-
portant root that should be. Englishmen
say that the failure of the turnip would Le
you the thanks of the country
whose just cause you have so
skillfully and heroically saved.
Ten days ago an invading army
vastly superior to you in num-
pers and materials of war, close-
ly beleaugered your capital, and
vauntingly proclaimed its speedy
conquest. You marched to at-
tack the enemy in their entrench
ments. With well directed
movements and death daring val-
or you charged upon him in his
strong position, drove him from
fields to fields over a distance of
more than thirty ftve miles, and,
in spite of . his reinforcements,
compelled him to scek shelter
under cover of his gun-boats,
where he now lies, cowering be-
fore the army he so lately deri-
ded and threaten with entire sub-
Jugation.
The fortitude with which you
have borne the trials and priva-
tions, the gallantry with which
you have entered into each suc-
cessive battle, must have been
witnessed to be fully appreciated
but a grateful people will not
fail to recognize your needs and
bear you in loved remembrance.
Well may it be said of you that
you have enough for glory; but

to the eause of constitutional lib-
erty claims for further eforts.—

AN EPISODE OF THE WAR
[The following verses are from an English
journal, depicting the suffering among the
factory operatives of that country from the
want of cotton. ]
Dead—dead—gead !
Far better it should be so ;
To lie in a panper’s ccffin there,
Than sin’s temptation to know,
For O. my girl was bonny and fair,
And beauty’s curse you see,
When flunger and want, disease and care,
Such me:ciless fiends ean be.
It was for her sake, that day by day.
My heart grew heavy and sore ,
Till hope ifself seemed ebbing away
From my life’s dark sunless shore.
Dead —dead —dead !
She was starved to death I say,
Because of the fierce and cruel strife
‘Mid our Kinsman far away.
Man look on her face so worn and pale,
On her bands so white and thin.
ere was a spirit that would not quail,
From striving her bread to wip !
But yonder closed is the factory gate,
The engine is red with rust ;
And what could we do but starve and wai t
Till peace should bring us a crust ?
Dead— dead —dead !
With her brother lying ill;
And her father shivering on the step
That leads to the silent mill !
Alone I kneel in my blinding tears—
Alone in my hlack despair —
My heart overburdened with gloomy fears
Yet far too bitter for prayer !
Why do you prate the world
grows
More kind and more wise each day ?
War's blooody flame still glitters and
glows,
The olives of peach decay !
still
Dead —dead —dead !
Oh God ! that my curse should fall
On the heads of those whose selfish aims
Ilave worked such woe for us all !
Man, blame me not for my burning werds
Nor bid me these thoughts disclaim ;
For Death has riven the silvery chords
That swelled through my anguish’
frame.
True, I'm only a woman, whose heart
Lies stauck by a mortal blow :
But God! how keen is the
* smart
A mother alone can know !

While in this condition, oppressed by the derangements,

this trivial and common complaint, is also true in many

As a Family Physic.
From Dr. E. W. Cartwright, New Orleans.
Your Pills are the prince of purges. Their excellent
cnalities surpass any cathartic we possess. They aro
mild, but very certain and effectual in their action on the
bowels, which makes them invaluable to us in the daily
treatment of disease.
Headache,SickHeadache,Foul Stomach,
From Dr. Edward Boyd, Baltimore.
DEAR BRO. AvER: X cannot answer you what complaints
T have cured with your Pills better than to say all that we
ever treat with a purgative medicine. I place great defen.
dence on an effectual cathartic in my daily contest with
disease, and believing as I do that your Pills afford us the
best we have, I of course value them highly.
PITTSBERG, Pa., May 1, 1855.
Dr. J.C. Aver. Sir: I have been repeatedly cured of
the worst headaches any body can have by a dose or twa
of your Pills. It seems to arise from a foul stomach,
which they cleanse at once.

Yours with great respect, B

Bilious Disorders — Liver Complaints,
From Dr. Theodore Bell, of New York City.
Not only are your Pills admirably adapted to their pur-
nose as an aperient, but I find their beneficial effects upon
tiie Liver very marked indeed. They have in my prac-
tice proved moro effectual for the cure of dilious come
plaints than any one remedy I can mention. I sincerely
rejoice that we have at length a purgative which is wore
thy the confidence of the profession and the people.
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
Washington, D. C., 7th Feb., 1856,
Sin: T have used your Pills in my general and hospital
practice ever since you made them, and cannot hesitate to
gay they are the best cathartic we employ. Their regu-
lating action on the liver is quick and decided, conse-
quently they are an adwirablo remedy for derangements
of that organ. Indeed, I have seldom found a case of
wdlious disease s0 obstinate that it did not readily yield to
them. Fraternally yours, ALONZO BALL, 3. D.,
Lhysician of the Marine Hospital,
Dysentery, Diarrhea, Relax, Worms,
From Dr. J. G. Green, of Chicago.
Your Pills Lave had a long trial in my practice, and I
"old them in esteem as one of the Lest aperients I have
ever found. Their alterative effect upon the liver makes
“hem an excellent remedy, when given in small doses for
ilious dysentery and diarrhea. Their sugar-coating
makes them very acceptable and convenient for the use
of women and children.

From Rev. J. V. Himes, Pustor of Advent Clourch, Boston.
“DR. AYER: I have used your Pills with Saiki
nccess in my family and among those I am called to visit

“rify the blood, they are the very best remedy I have
vor known, and 1 can confidently recommend them to
27 friends. Yours, J. V HIMES.

Dear Sin: I am using your Cathartic Pills in my prac-
ce, and find them an excellent purgative to cleanse the
“yatem and purify the fountains of the blood.

From Dr. J. P. Vaughn, Montreal, Canada.
Too much cannot be said of your Pills for tho cure of

we efficacious as I have, they should join me in prociaim-
irzit for the benefit of the multitudes who suffer from
t complaint, which, although bad enough in itself, is
i.e progenitor of others that are worse. I belicve cos-
!‘veness to originate in the liver, but your Pills affect that
C:gan and cure the disease.
“rom Mrs. E. Stuart, Physician and Midwife, Boston.
I find oue or two large doses of your Pills, taken at the
reper time, are excellent promotives of the natural secre-
ion when wholly or partially suppressed, and also very
(ffectual to cleanse the stomach and expel worms. They
re 80 much the best physic we have that I recommend

Hoxorep fin: I should be ungrateful for the relief
your skill has brought me if I did not report my case to
sou. A cold settled in my limbsand brought on excru-
ciating newralgic pains, which endéd in ehronic rheuma-
“ism. Notwithstanding I had the best of physicians, the
disease grew worse und worse, until by the advice of your
~xcellent agent in Baltimore, Dr. Mackenzie, I tried your
‘ills. Their effects were slow, but sure. By persevering

Sarsaparilla
FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD.
And for the speedy cure of the following complaints:
Scrofulaand Scrofulons Affections,such
as Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions,
Pimples, Pustules, Blotches, gis,
Blains, and all Skin Diseases,
OAKLAND, Ind., 6th June, 1859,
J. C. Aver & Co. Gents: I fuel jt my duty to ae-
knowledge what your Swrsaparilla has done for me.
llaving inherited a Scrofulous infection, I have suffered
from it in various ways for years. Sometimes it Lursg
out in Ulcers on my hands and arms; sometimes it
turned inward and distressed me at the stomach. Two
years ago it broke out on my head and covered my scalp
and ears with one sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. I tried many medicines and several
physicians, but without much relief from any thing. In
fact, the disorder grew worse. At length I was rejoiced
to read in the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an alterative (Sarsaparilla), for I knew from your reputa-
tion that any thing you made must be good. I sent to
Cincinnatiand got it, and used it till it cured me. I took
it, as you advise, in small doses of a teaspoonful over a
month, and used almost three bottles, New and healthy
skin soon began to form under the scab, which after a
while fell off. My skin is now clear, and I know by my
feelings that the disease has gone from my system. You
can well believe that I fee] Eo Iam saying when I tell
you, that I hold you to be one of the apostles of the age,
Yours,
and remain ever gratefully. y

Ringworm, Sore Eyes, bropsy.
Dr. Robert M. Preble writes from Salem, N. Y., 12th
Sept., 1859, that he has cured an inveterate case of
Dropsy, which threatened to terminate fatall , by the
persevering use of our Sarsaparilla, and also a dangervw.
~» Malignant Erysipelas by large doses of the same; says
-he cures the common Eruptions by it constantly.
Bronchocele, Goitre or Swelled Neck.
Zebulon Sloan of Prospect, Texas, writes : Three bot-
tles of your Sarsaparilla cured me from a Goilre — a hid-
eous swelling on the neck, which I had suffered from
over two years.”
Leucorrhea or Whites, Ovaria: Tumor,
Uterine Ulceration, Female Diseases.
Dr. J. B. 8. Channing, of New York City, writes; “X
most cheerfully comply with the request of your agent in
saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent
alterative in the numerous complaints for which we
employ such a remedy, but gs, ly in is
of the Scrofulous diathesis. I have cured many inveter-
ate cases of Leucorrheea by it, and some where the com-
plaint was caused by ulceration of the wlerus, The ulcer-
ation itself was soon cured, Nothing within my kuowl-
edge equals it for these female derangements.”
Edward 8. Marrow, of Newbury, Ala., writes, “4 dan-
gerous ovarian tumor on one of the females in my family,
which had defied all the remedies we could employ, has
at length been completely cured by your Extract of Sar-
saparilla. Our physician thought nothing but extirpa-
tion could afford relief, but he advised the trial of your
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cuttin, , and it
proved effectual. After taking your remedy eight weeks
no symptom of the disease remains.” "
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
> NEW ORiEANs, 25th August, 1859.
DR. J. C. AYER: Sir, I cheerfully comply with the re-
rest of your agent, and rt to you some of the eflects
have realized with jou saparilla,
I have cured with it, in my practice, most of the com-
plaints for which it is recommended, and have found its
effects truly wonderful in the enre of Venereal and Mer-
curial Disease. One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers
in his throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of his mouth. Your Sarsaparilla, steadil; taken,
cured him in five weeks. Another was attac] by sec-
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had
eaten away a considerable oat of it, so that I believe the
disorder would soon reach his brain and kill him. But i$
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla; the
ulcers healed, and he is well again, not of courge without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been
treated for the same disorder Ly mercury was suffering
from this poison in her bones. They had become so sen-
sitive to the weather that on a dam day she suffered ex-
cruciating pain in her joints and bones. She, too, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I
know from its formula, which your agent gave me, that
this Preparation from your lal ratory must be a great
Tehedy} consequently, these truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised me. -

De. J. C. Aven: Sir, I have been afflicted vith a

attacked. ¥ think ila wondertus medicine, o, JREAM.
Jules Y. Getchell, of St. Louis, writes: “T have been

A great variety of cases have been reported to us whese
cures ¥ these formidable complaints have resulted from
the usd of this remedy, but our space hero will not admit
them. Some of them may be found in our American
Almanac, which the agents below named are pleased to
furnish gratis to all who call for them.
Dyspepsia, Heart Disease, Fits, Epile
yep De Melancholy, Nouralgia.y -
Many remarkable cures of these affections have been
made by the alterative power of this medicine. It stimu~
lates the vital functions into vigorous action, and thus
overcomes disorders which would be supposed beyond its
. Such a remedy has long been required by the ne~
cessities of the people, and we are confident that this will
do for them all that medicine can do.

FOR THE RAPID CURE OF

This is a remedy so universally known to surpass
other for the sity throat and Sh complaints, that
is useless here to publish the evidence of its virtues. Its
gurfiafied exceehie Xe coughs end colds, and its truly
‘wonde cures of mon: isease, have made
known throughout the civilized nations of the earth .
Few are the communities, or even fam
who have not some personal experience of its e! —
some living trophy in their midst of its victory over the
subtle and dangerous disorders of the throat and lungs.
As all Lpoy the say Saaity of these
as they know, too, the effects of remedy, we
do i! than to assure them that it has now all the vir-
tues that it did have when making the cures which have
‘won go strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
