ACCIDENTALLY WotrYtinn.—We regret
to learn that Nathaniel Wike, of the Bth
Missouri Regiment. was wounded by the
accidental discharge of a gun in the hands
of a soldier belonging to another company.
He was lying in his tent at Larkensville,
Ala., at the time of the accident. The ball
went in near the shoulder and passed down
his leftside. His friends in Columbia will
be sorry to hear this. His term of service

Southwest, including Fort Henry, Fort
Donaldson, Pittsburg Landing, Corinth,
and the Siege of Vicksburg, and to be acci

SEW/NO MACIMCES.—In all recent in
ventions, experience is the true test of su
periority. After years of the most thor
ough trial, the fact that the machines of the
Grover Jr, Baker Sewing-Machine Company
pre-eminently surpass all others can not
be disputed. The evidence of this is
abundantly proven by the marked success
of this Company. .Their machines are not
only in extensive use In our own country,
but in nearly all others throughout the
civilized world. During the past year
their machines hare' been exhibited at
about twenty prominent fairs, and have
been awarded nearly tarty first premiums
These machines are adapted to both the
lock stitch, and the still more desirable
Grover , Baker stitch. They are suitable
for sewing of every description, and are
the only proper machines for embroidery
and ornamental work. The great variety
of machines manufactured
by
this Com
pany enables purchasers to select with
great facility.

From the Beg.. Levi G. Burk, Pastor of
the Baptist %Church, Pemberton, N. if.,
formerly of the North Baptist inaroli.
I have known Hoollands's 'Getman Bit
tersfavorablyforanumbezigeara. -I have
used them in my own. y, and have
been so pleased with th effects that I
was induced to recommend them to many
others, and know that they have operated
in a strikingly beneficial manner. Jrtake
groat pleasure in thus publicly proclaim
ing this fact, and calling the attention to
those afflicted with the diseases for which
they are recommended to, these' Bitters,
knowing from experience that xrawcona
mendatron will be sustained.' •I do . this
cheerfully as Boofland's Bitters is intend
ed to benefit the afflicted, "not a xusa
drink."

From Rev. .1. Newton Brown, D. 1),,, RM.

edge and Christian Chronicle Philadelphia.
Although not disposed to favor or recom
mend Patent Medicines in general, through
distrust of their ingredients and effects, „I
yet know of no sufficient reasons whyn
man may not wit , to the benefits he be
lieves himself to have received from any
simple preparation, in the hope that he
may, thus contribute to thobenef& of eth
ell3.
I do this more readily in regard to Mot
land's German Bitters, prepared by Dr 43
M Jackson, this city, because I was prejt.
diced against them for many years,under
the impression that they were chiefly
an alcoholic mixture. I am indebtedto my
friend,AcohegkAiteamalow, -- Begirfor - tho
- rentO'valiifthispreindiee bypropartemeeend

The use of three bottles of these bitters at
the present year, was followed by evident
relief and restoration to a degree of - bodily
and mental vigor which I had not felt for
six monthsbefore t and had almost des
of regaining.. I therefore thank God and
my friendtor directing me to use tberri.

Dr. Jackson:—Dear Sir:—l have been

German hitters, I depart for once from
a t
my usual course, to express m all con
viction that, for general delritify . ; the sys

it will be very beneficial to those who suf.
