Humiliating the South. z The free people of the North fought and conquered the insurrectionary South to preserve the nation. They, went to war because treason forced them to.do so; but they went with no vindictive feeling and no purposes of conquest. They de termined La put doWn rebellion, and. , to sweep away the caste . system in which rebellion had its origin and its strength. The contest on the part of the North bad no sectional spirit in it, and no desire fur nay rule over the country except that legitimately obtained by the' working of free institutions. The same reasons that _actuated the loyal defenders of the Union against the assaults of secessionists actu ate them now on the question of recon struction. If-the late rebels have any humble pio to eat, it is a pie of their owu cooking. They were whipped not for the sake of giving them a whipping, but to save the country, its unity, and its liberty ; and they are to,be made to submit to such terms or, conditions, before being allowed to resume their fornmr relations to the Federal Government, as may be fairly deemed necessary to secure the Republic against any yetura of their hereSies and madness. This being the fact,how absurd the talk about what the South will or will uOt aeeept, about conciliating the South, and. about listening to the still fanatical and exacting chivalry. The South must consent to 'whatever the Majority of the people who' have con• quered it may deem essential to the, safety of the Republic, The interest and wishes of the South are not primarily to be regarded.— Transcript. Salt litiver7 The traveler on his way 'from Louis ville to Nashville crosses astream known as Salt river,some portions , of which are so rapid and roar along with such turmoil that in the cold days of canoeing it was considered 4 task, of no ordinary difileulty, to Make way against its current. Hence came the 'proverb '-to'row one up Salt- Over," which also took the form of a threat: To be rowed up Salt river was to be " 6plasbed," exflunctified," or otherwise extinguished, according to the current synonyuiesof the West in the nays of,Pavid Cyockett.

Th.e effect of this prep aration in the prevention and cure of disease, was so marvellous and astonishing, thnt the most Bat • tering - marks of royal favor, were bestowed upon him who discovered it, Eis name was placed - upon the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol lowing inscription—Dr. Cheopsus, the Public Bene factor—was presented to him by the Viceroy: . • The preparation has been used in several epidem ics of 'cholera, , both as a, preventive and curative measure, and with suchgreat success, that it has been introduced into nearly all the general hospitals Of the old world. •' The .old 'saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, applies with marvelous force to cholera, and therefore any remedy that will pro tect us against this terrible disease should be freely 'lliad persistently used. . ~ • All pathologists now agree that the cholera poisonn acts on the excretory cii:gans, and keeps them in working order, must prevent a sufficient accumula tion of the poison to exert its terrible effects on the prganism. - This is true not only of cholera, but of nearly all other naaladies, especially the different forms of rarer. . _ _ The Great Zingari Bitters is just such a remedy ;is the above conditions require.

Misiilees,lterb Sitters I When Mishler's Bitters - were'...first intro duced to. the public the propriotor did not feel justified in recommending it asa spe-' cid° for Cholera During the fall or 1865, Dr. Miskiler ~received the. following note from Jacob L. Baker, - Esq., of Lancaster Pa., - a member of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. Mr. Baker had a great deal of experience in the treatment of Cholera is a druggist of sixteen years standing,was Hospital Steward in the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, for three years, and is withal agentleman of undoubted integrity . and one in whose statement the most implicit confidence can be placed : Lancaster, November 3d, 1865. Dr. Mishler—Dear. Sir:—Knowing that the Cholera with its dreadful ravages is now upon our land, and knowing that no medi cine now in our country possesses such a Caloric influence "which is the vital reme dy for all diseases of this kind," as the Bitters you now making I request you to prepare such a quantity of your bitter as would suit all demands, as I assure you they will be an invaluable remedy, and will be hailed as a blessing by all who will use it. b7O 198,37 Yours respectfully. JACOB L. BAKER Being thus urged, and having noticed the BitterS were constantly curing the most violent cases of Diarrhoea, Cholera Mbrbus and kindred complaints,Dr. Mishlerat lust offered his compounds ass cure for Cholera The result hag exceeded his most sanguine expectations and fully justifies ail that Mr. Baker says in his note. It certainly proves that Mr. Baker's practical knowledge of medicine far exceeds that of most doctors who too often close their patients with de leterious drugs on some absurd theory.— For the purpose of showing that Mishler's Herb Bitters will cure Cholera we give below a few facts. All intelligent persons who have investi gated-the origin of cholera, agree that it is caused by poison introduced and generated into the system by impure water, dama ness, filth and over-crowded rooms with deficient - ventilation. This is proved by the fact that cholera always rages worse on board of ships where all of the above causes are found more or less combined. To cure cholera, and also to prevent it,it is necessary to neutralize this position, and thatMishler's Bitters will do this is proven by the following : The steamship • Virginia, arrived at the Port of New 'York". about the middle of April with cholera a board a number of the passengers having, died during the voyage with this complaint. Among the passen gers were a family • named Schmith, from Baden, Germany. This family was at tacked with cholera. Fortunately for them they had friends living' in this city (Lan caster. Pa.,) who knewthe virtues of Mish ler's Bitters and who procured a bottle and sent it to the Schmith family. When this package arrived at Quarantine,the doctors examined it and confiscated the contents. Another bottle was procured and packed in a more secure manner: it safely reached the Schmiths. On its arrival aboard the Vir ginia, Henry Schmith and Christ. Schmith were both labeling tinder choleric symp toms: Mrs. Marcia Schmith, wife of the former was very had, not expected to re cover, and a son had died of the dread com plaint and had been buried theday previ ous. It was in this plight a bottle of Mish ler's Bitters, sent forth like an Angel of Mercy found the poor Schmith family.— Henry Schmith was the first to try it, and so instantaneous was the relief he experi e.need that lie gave it to his wife and brother both of whom it at once relieved. They used the entire contents of the bottle and all three were so much relieved that the physicians permitted them to leave the Virginia,after being confined at quarantine aboard that scourge ship forty-two says.— The. Sehmiths proceeded to their relatives in Lancaster, and at an early opportunity called on Dr; Mishler to express their grati tude for the timely relief they had found in his Bitters. Mr Henry Schmith stated that all the compounds the doctors had given him did no good, but that one glass of Mishler's Bitters made him feel like a new man, wavniing :his whole system, giving him a healthful heat and causing him to perspire freely. His statement was substantially iftfas substantially as given above. and iaa.-further said that if the doc tors had not kept the first . bottle from reaching son would yet hrve been living. Mrs. Seinnith was still weak from the effect of cholera, but the continued use of the Bitters ' were most surely restoring her accustomed vigor. It is not to be expected that regular M. Ds. will admit that any remedy not to be found in the Dispensatory will cure Chol era or any other complaint, but candor compels Dr. D.. 11. Bissell of the Cholera Hospital ship " Falcon" to admit that ho believes Mishler's Bitters to be a" very good Tonic." In reply as to a case of Bit ters that was sent to him by a well known gentleman of Lancaster, he writes as : Hospital Ship Falcon, Quarantin, New York,.) une 7th, isop. George S. Rowbotham, Esq.— Dear Sir : Yours of the Did, inst. is to hand, In re ply, I beg leave to say, that I received the case of Bitters .you, sent-me for trial &c., that I gave them to the convalescents in Hospital. I believe then to be a very good tonic Bitters, well adapted to all cases requiring Tonic remedies. D. H. BISSELL, Physician, Hospital Ship "Falcon." This letter from Dr. Bisselljust after the reception of the Bitters, and before be had time and opportunity to' thoroughly test their wonderful medicinal properties is considered an important endorsement, us that gentleman to-day occupies the most important position of any physician in America. The passengers and crews o emigrant and merchant vesselS that arrive in the Port of New York from foreign coun tries,are subject to his inspection and con trol. and the great experience he has had in the management of that dreadful dis ease, Cholera, gives an endorsement by him an unusual importance. This letter together with the statement of the Schmith family—who while in the Steamer Vir ginia, were under Dr. Bissell's control, shoWs what the Bitters have done and can do. Another case of Cholera cured by Mish ler,s Herb Bitters is that of Mr. PearsoPof York county, who,after suffering severely fron•Call the symptons of Cholera, finally became collapsed and • while in this state, (the doctors stating that he watt beyond re lief) a friend adnumsttired freely,Mishler's Bitters. The, - effect was instantaneous ; hea 4-was generated irt, the body, perspira tion witsandllced and after using one bat tle Mr. Pearsol was entirely restored. Mishler's Bitters cures Cholera by coun teracting the poison which is the cause of the disease. Poison in the system,whether generated by . bad sir. filth, &c., as in Cholera, or introduced by the bite of a venomous snake or mad dog will be ex pelled and all bad.symptons allayed by the use of Michler's Herb Bitters. The above proves this to be the fact in Cholera and the certificate of Mralbinehart proves that Mishler's Billers will 'our° the bite of a poisonons suake: • - Lancaster, July 4th, 1865. ICf.r.M. Mishler—Sir:=About eight weeks since I was bitten in the left hand by 'a snake, but. at the time did not know of what species it was. Immediately after the bite my hand swelled to a very- large size, and the poison appeared to be work ing up my arm. Z suffered great pain in my hand and arm; I had to quit work and was afraid I would be compelled to have my hand amputated. :I came to you, and by your advice washed my band and arm with your Herb -Bitters at the same time takino ., it inwardly. In eleven. days I was able to go to work again.. The poison was all drawn out and Mishler's 'Herb Bitters was the only medicine or application that I made use of. Mr. - Christian Burns, a near neighbor of mine, went out a day or two after to the place where I was bitten, and killed what I believe was the same snake - that bit me as he caught within five yards of the spot where I was bitten. It proved to be what is called a copper snake;, at any rate, whether it was the same one that bit me or not—one thing is certain= that your Bitters cured the bite of a snake in my case for which I shall ever be thank ful, as I believelt was 'the means of saving -my hand, ". • • s I shall be pleased • to Personally satisfy any one of the truth of the. above. • ' Yours, .

Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole body, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by. mercurial. disease. low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food,, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. 'What ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con stitution,' descending "from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation ; " indeed, *it seems to be 'tbe rod. of •Him who says, « E ,will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children." • Its effects commence by deposition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, , eruptions or sores. This foul cor ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu tions . not only suffer from scrofulous com plaints, but they have far less power to with stand the attacks of other disea'ses; conse quently vast numbers perish by disorders which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are : still • rendered fatal 3 ..•,y. this taint in the system. Most of the consumption which de cimates the human family has its Origin directly in this scrofulous contamination • and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous ; their persons are invaded 'by this-lurking in fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy fond and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in AYER'S Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our. times can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active remedials that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul. disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the system : from its destructive consequences.. Hence it should be employed for the cure of not only, Scrofula,. but also those other affec tions which - arise from it, such as ERUPTIVE and Slum DISEASES, ST. ANTHONY'S FIRE, ROSE, or ERYSIPELAS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES, BLOTCHES, BLAINS and B 011. v , TUMORS, TETTER and SALT RHEUM; 'SCALD HEAD, RINGWORM, RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and MERCURIAL DIS EASES, DROPSY, p DEBILITY,_ and, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING 'PROM VITIA TE') on IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief in d , impurity of the blood" is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, - without which sound health is impossible in contaminated constitutions. .A_ "W* F., M, ' S Ague Cure, FOIL THE SPEEDY CURE OP 'lntermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague, Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dunab Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed for the whole class of diseases originat ing in biliary derangement, caused by the Malaria of Miasmatic Countries. We are enabled here to offer the community a remedy which, while it cures the above complaints with certainty, is stillperfectly harmless in any quantity. Such a remedy is invaluable in districts where these afflicting disorders prevail. This "CURE" expels the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de velopment of the disease, if taken on the first ap proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is not only the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the reach of every body ; and in bilious districts, where FEVEG AND Amin prevails, every body should have it and use it freely both for care and. protec tion. A great superiority of this remedy .over any other ever discovered for the speedy and certain cure of Intermittents is that it contains no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitu tion. Those cured by it are left as healthy as it they had never had the disease. Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of the miasmatic poison. A . great variety of disor ders arise from its irritation, among which are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind zress, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma,•Pal pitation, Pain ful Affection of the Spleen, Hyster zw, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis and De rangement of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the intermittent type, or become periodical. 'rids " CunE " expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily residing in the malarious districts. If taken occa sionally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec tion than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter mittents if they avail themselves of the protection this remedy affords. Prepared byDr. J. C.
