tended. - They afford cheering bope tlat our.;
resources, limited * they were ' ba begin
ning of the conteßt, will doriog its progress, t
become developed to suob an extent *s fully <
to meet our future wants. The policy of eu
lietuient for short terms, against which I have .
steadily contended from the eouiOienceiuent of I
the war, has, io tiiy judgment, contributed in
no immaterial degree, to tho recent ritorses
which wc have suffered, and even aow lenders
it difficult to furnish you an accurate state- j
intDt of the army.
When the war first broke out, many of our
people could with difficulty be persuaded that
it would be long or serious. It was ooideem.
Ed possible that anything so insane as a per
sistant atcaapt to subjugate these States could
be made, still less that thejfrluaion could so
far prevail as to give to tlie war the vait pro
portions which it has assumed. Tho people,
of a loug war, were naturally
averre to long enlistments, and the early le
gislation of Congress rendered it impracticable
to obtain volunteers fur a greater period than
12 months.
Now that it has become probable that the
war will be continued through a series of years,
our high-spitited and gallant soldiers, while j
generally reenltsting, are, from tho fact of !
having entered the service for a short term,
■compelled in many instances to go home to
make necessary arrangements for their fami
lies duriDg their prolonged absence. The quo- ,
ia of new regiments for the war, oalled for
from the different States, are in rapid progress
of organiiition. The whole body of new
levies aud reenlisted imu will probably be
ready in the rank* within the Dext 30 days.—
Hut, in the meantime, it is exceedingly diffi
cult to give an accurate estimate of the num
ber of our forces in the field.
They may, in general terms, he 6tated at
400 regiments of lufautry, with proportionate
torccs of cavalry and artillery, the details of
which will be shown by the rsport of the Sec
retary of War. 1 deem it proper to advert to
the fact that the process of furloughs and re
enlistment io progress for the last month, bad
so far disorganized and weakened our forces
as to impair our ability for successful defense;
but I hereby congratulate you that this evil,
which 1 had foreseen and was powerless to
prevent, luay now be said to be substantially
at an end, and that w shall not again, duting
the war, be exposed to seeing our strength di
minished by this fruitful cause of disaster—
.short estimates.
The people of the Confederate States being
principally engaged in agricultural pursuits,
were unprovided at the commencement of hoa- j
tilities with ships, skip-yards, materials foi
ship building, or skilled mechanics and sea
men, in sufficient numbers to make tho prompt
■creation of a navy a practical task, even if
the required appropriations had been made for
the purposes. iNutwuhstandiug our very lim
ited resources, however, the report of the Sec
retary will exhibit to you a satisfactory pro
portion in preparation, and certainly of the
near completion of vessels of a number andJ
vlafs on which we may confidently rely for
contesting the vaunted control of the enemy
ever our waters.
The fiuaooial system prepared by the wisdom I
of your predecessors has proved adequate to j
supplying all the wants of the Government, j
notwithstanding the unexpected and very large
increase of expenditure reoultiug from a groat
augmentation in the necessary measures of de
fense. The report of the Secretary of the
Treasury will exhibit the gratifying fact that
we have uo floating deb f , that the credit of
the Government is unimpaired, and that the
total expenditure of the Government for the
year has teen ia round numbers $170,000,0C0,
less than ouc-tuird of the sum wasted by the
enemy iu Lis vain effort to conquer us; le-.s
thau the value of a single ariiclo of export —
the cotton c:op of the year.
Tift report of the Postmaster General will i
show the condition of that D-partuicut ti be
stoadiiy improving, its revenues increasing, j
and already affording assurafioes that it will !
he self-susiaioiug at the date required by the j
Constitution, while affording ample mail facili- i
ties for the people.
In tho Department of Justice, which in- I
eludes the Pateut Office aud Public Printing, j
some legislative provisions will be required,
which will be specifically stated iu the report j
of the Head of that Department.
1 invite the attention of Congrats to the du
ty of organizing a Supremo Court of the Cou- i
federate States, in aoeni dance with the man- ;
date of the Constitution.
I refer you to my message, communicated to
the Provisional Congress in November last,
for such further information touching the cou- ;
diiiou of public affairs as it might be useful to j
•lay before you, tho ebort interval which has
elapsed since not having produced auy rnateri- j
al changes in that condition other than those
to whioh reference has already been made.
ID conclusion, I cordially welcome the Rep
resentatives, who, recently obosen by the peo
ple, are fully iuibued with their views and
feelings, and cau so ably devise means to the
needful provisions for the public service. I
assure you of* iuy hearty cooperation in all

This orphan child, of whose previous history we
have been able to learn but little, died iu Bedford
at tbe lesidence of B. F. livers Esq.. iu whose
family she had lived about two years. Simplicity,
gentleness, and docility, were marked features in
lier character, and all who knew tho child felt a ten
der interest in her. Her religious instruction was
not neglected. In her recent home and in tho Sab
bath Sciiool she had learned inuch of Bible truth,
and we hope, by faith, though it may have been
weak, bad received the Saviour, and laid hold on
eternal life. The funeral services were conducted
by the paster of the Presbyterian church, and
would have been more largely attended, could no
tice ot the same have been more generally, circu
lated. Whilst we would rot speak ccifidcntly
of her state we have reasons which cannot be heie

Having inherited a Scrofijlou* iiiferifon, I have suffered
from it io various way* for year*. Sometime* it hurst
out in Ulcer* on my hands and urn:a; sometimes it
turned inward and distressed mc at the stomach. Two
ycara ago it broke out on my head and covered mv scalp
and ears with one sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. I tried mativ medicines and several
physicians. hut without much relief from any tiling. In
fact, the disorder grew worse. At length I was rejoiced
to read iu the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an alterative (Sarsaparilla), for I knew from your repu
tation that any thing you made must be good." 1 sent to
Cincinnati ana got it, and used It till it cured me. I took
it. as you advise, In small doses of a teaspoonftii over a
month, and used almost throe 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 Hint the disease is gone from my system. You
can well believe thai 1 feci what I am saving when I tell
you, that I hold you to be one of the apostles of tire ago,

Dr. J. B. S. OuranJng, of Yew York Uitv, write*: "I
must cheerfully comply with the request of your agent In
saying T have found your Sarsaparilla a most exßllmt
alterative in the numerous complaints for which we em
ploy such a remedy, but especially in remote Dixttue*
of the Scrofulous diathesis. I have enred many invet
erate cases of Lcucorrhira by it, and some where the
complaint was caused by ulceration of the uterun. The
ulceration itself was soon cured. Nothing within my
knowledge equals it for the*- fenfttle di-i-angements."
Ed ward 8. Marrow, of Newbury, Ala., writes: " A dan
gerous ovarian tumor on one of the females hi my family,
which had defied all tiie remedies we could employ, baa
at length been completely cured hy your extract of Sar
saparilla- Our physician thought, nothing hut extirpa
tion could afford relief, but he advised the trial of voor
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cutting, and It
proved effectual. After taking your remedy eight weeks
no symptom of the disease remain*."
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
NSW OkI.KANS, 25th August, ltM.
DR. J. C. AVER. Sir: I cheerfully comply with the
request of your agent, and report to you some of tlw
effects I have realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured with it, in my-practice, most of the eotu
plaints for which it Is recommended, and ha: e found ita
effects truly wonderful in the cur • of Venereal a:id Mer
curial Dis'-ase. One of my patients had Syphilitic nicer*
in liis throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of lu mouth. Your Sai'saparilia, Heartily taken,
cured him in five week*. Another was attacked by awe
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the uleesttfcm had
eaten away a considerable part of it, so that (believe the
disorder would soou reach his brain and kill him. But it
yielded to my administration of your barsaparilla; th#
ulcers healed, and he is well again', not of course without
some disfiguration of the face. A woman who had been
treated for the same disorder by mercurv was suffering
front this poison In her bones. They lnwl Ik-come so sensi
tive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered e
cruoiating pain in her joints and 1 tones. Khe, too, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few week*. I
know from its formula, which vour agent gave me, that
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, These truly remarkable result*
with it have uot surprised me.

DR. J. C. AYKK. Sir : I have been aifficted with apaln-
FTI! chronic Ithcii7nati.rm for a longtime, which baffled ilia
skill of physicians, and stuck to mc IN SPITE of ail ths
remedies I could find, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. One
bottle cured mo in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am far better than before I was
attacked. 1 think it a wonderful medicine. J. FEE AM.
