There are many preparations sold under the name of Bittern, put up in quart bottles, compounded of the cheapest whiskey or common ruin, costing from 20 to 40 cents per gallon, the taste disguised by Anise or Goriandor Seed. This class of Bitters has caused and will continue to vs use, as long as they can be sold, hundreds to die the death of the drunkard. By their use the system is kept continually under the influence of Alcoholic Stim ulants o f the wend kind, the desire fur Liquor is crea ted and kept up, and the result is all the horrors at tendant upon a drunkard's life and death. For those who desire and will have a Liquor Bitters, we publish the following receipt.

I Itfessra.srorms gentlemen, your Boot ee d's Germain Bitters has sated my life. There is no mistake its this. It is vouched fur by numbers of my comrades, some of whose name are appended, and who were fully cognizant of alt the circumstances of my case I am, and have been for the last four years, a member of Sherman's zelebrated battery, and muter the immediate command of Captain 1t...8. AsreS--4- Threngh the exposure attendant upon my arduous dit ties, I was attacked in November last with inflammation of the lungs, and was for seventy-two days in the hos pital. This was followed by great debility, heighten , ed by au attack of dysentery. I was then removed from the White House, and sent to this city on board 010 Steamer "State of Maine." from which I landed on the 28th ofjuue. Since that time 1 have been a bourns low ad any one could be and still retain a spark of vitality. For a week or more.( was scarcely able to wallow anything, and if I did force a morsel down, It was immediately thrown up again. I could not even keep a glees of Water on my stom ach. Life could not last under these circumstances; and, accordingly, the physic:taus svho had been work iug faithfully, though unsuccessfully, to rescue me from the grasp of the dead Archer, frankly told me they could do I/0 more for ine,. end advised me to See a clergyman, and to make such disposition of my limi ted funds as best suited me. An.acquaintance who visited me at the hospital, Mr. Frederick Steinbron,„e, Sixth below Arch Street, ad% leed use, ass forlorn hope, to try your Bitters, and kindly precured a bot tle. From the time I commenced taking them the gloomy shadow of death receded, and Item now, thank tiod for it, getting better.

There is no law for the return of fugitive misters. I was left alone. , . I Went into the - Union lines, and on New Year's day a Genere.l read me Mr. Linooln's Proclamation, 'tintl'tiiill me I was a free man. Then he gave me-some bacon that. smelt bad, and set me to work digging trenches. • I do not, like digging trenches. I told a soldier so. He laughed. I told an officer so. He said :'Go to the d-I. i 1 told him I was free and wouldn't.— Then he kicked me. The kick was of that character which makes sitting down uncomfortable. . I thought that my liberty was not properly respected, so 1 took to the swamp. A sentinel shot at, me as I passed. What had I to do with the countersign .? Am rnot a free man ? CHAPTER .

The fol lowing highly interesting account of his escape. from the Ohio Penitentia ry, and subsequent adventures, is published .in the Enquirer. h will repay perusal Everything was now ready to be gin the work; about the latter part of October they beganr to bore. All were busy—One making a rope lad der by tearing and tvvistilig tip strips of bed-ticks, another making bowie knives' and another twisting towels. They labored perseveringly for sev eral clays,. and after boring through nine inches, of cement and-nine thick nesses of brick placed edgewise, they began to wonder when they should reach the soft earth, Suddenly a brick fell through. What could Oft mean.?.What infernal.chamber had they reached ? It was immediately entered; and,to their great astonish ment tnd.joy, it proved to be an air cham her•extending the whole length of the row of cells- Here was an unexpected interruption In their fa- vor. Hitherto they had been oblig ed to conceal their rubbish in their bed-ticks, each day burning a pro portionate quantity of straw; now they bad' room enough for alrthey could dig. .'Thcy,r at once cornmen eed to - tunnel at right angles with this air-chamber, to get through' the foundation; and day after day they bored, day after day the , blocks were removed, day' after- day thefivork i be: fore. them .searreed , /fttetiiiihable.

If rain shout(' only 'be gtn, their chances of detection Would lie greatly lessened. Nothing now remained to be done but for the Gen eral and Col. Dick Morgan to change cells The hour approached for them to be locked up. They changed coats, and each stood at the other's cell door with his back exposed, and pretended to be engaged in making up their beds. As the turnkey en• tered, they 'turned in' and pulled their doors shut. Six, eight, ten o'clock came. How each pulse throbbed as they quietly awaited the approach of twelve l It came—the sentinel passed his round —all well. After waiting a•few mo ments to see if he intended to slip bads, the signal was given—all qui 'oily slipped down into the air-cham ber, first stuffing their flannel shirts and placingthete In bed as they were accustomed to lie. As they moved quktly along through the dark re ' COS)3 *to the terminus where they were to emerge from the earth, the Gencraq prepared to light a match.-z-'- Xs tbe tarld 'glare fell upon their countenances a, scene was presented whieb can never be .forgotten.— There were J.:retie-bed seven brave men, Who-bad resoNed to be free.— They 'We're armed With bowie-knives Made out.

Suppose, as they 'emerged front the ground, that the dog should give the alarm— tbey could but die. But few moments were spent in this kind of apprehension. The horr had arrived, and yet they came. For. tun ately—yes, providentially—the night had suddenly grown da.rk WI • rainy, the doge, tied retired to their koarkdle,-and: tam- eedthheikjead -taken refuge under I . befter. The Winer wall, by the aid of the rope ladder, was soon scaled, and now the outer one had to be attempted. Captain Taylor reached the top of the gate, and was enabled to got the rope over the wall. Mlieu the top was gain cd, they found a rope extending all around, which the General immedi. ately' cut, as he suspected that it, I might, lead into the Warden's room. This, turned out to be correct. They then entered the sentry box l / 4 on the wall and changed their clothes, and i let themselves down the wall. In sliding down the General skinned his hand very badly, and all were more or less bruised-. Once down ; they separated., Taylor and Shelton going one way, liokeremith, Bennett and McGee another, and General M. and Captain Hines ffoceeding ately towards the depot. - The General had ; by paying $l5 in gold, succeeded in obtaining a paper Which informed him of the schedule time of the different roads!. 'rho clock struck one, end he knew by hur rying he could reach the down train for Cincinnati. Ile got there just as the train was moving off. He at once looked on to see if there were any soldiers on board, and, espying a Union offieer;dhe boldly walked up and took a seat 'beside Jim. He re marked to him that 'as the night was damp and chilly, perhaps be would join him in a drink. He did so, and the party soon became very agreea ble to each other. The cars in cross ing the SciOta have to pass within a a short distance, of the Penitentiary. As they passed, the officer remarked, 'There's the hotel' at which Mr. Mor gan and his officers are spending their leisure.' 'Yes,' replied the Gen. oral, ~ a nd I sincerely hope he will make up his 'hind to board there dur. ing the balance of the war, for he is a great nuisance.' When the train reached. Xenia; it was detained by some accident more than an hour.— Imagine his anxiety, as soldier after soldier would pass through the train, for fear that when the sentinel pass ed his rotind at 2 o'clock their ab sence might be discovered. ' The train was due in Cincinnati at six o'clock. This Was the hour at which they were turned out of their cells, and of„ courm their escape would be discevered. In a few mo ments after it would be known all over the country. 'The train, having been detained at Xenia, was running very rapidly to make up the time, It was already past six o'clock.— The General said to Captain Hines, 'lt is after Six; if we go to the de pot we are dead men. Now or. nev er.' They went to the rear and put on the brakes. 'Jump, Hines !' Off he went, and fell heels over bead in the mud. .Another severe turn of the brake, :and the Another,. jumped. Ito was more successsul, and lighted on his feet. there were some sol idiers near, who remarked, 'what in the hi-4-IdO you mean by jumping off the Cars' here ?' The General repli ed, 'what 'in the d• r -i is the : use ,of my gait* into eow,n. wheY ATIAIq. 4 , ) ; and, besidb; what business :is:it. ; of youri ?' They went immediately to the riv.

The house 'was: reached, a fine breakfast was soon obtained, money. and a horse: fernisherl;, a ,goocl , wornan's prayer bestowed, and off we, went.— From there, forward thropgb Ken tuCky,everYbody vied with each oth er.es, te.'whe should show him the most attention ' -evento the negroes; and young 'ladies of refinement beg ged the honor. in :ctiOlt his - mealtie He remained .'in .Keethekly - some days, feeling rpeifectlyliefe, and send ing into Louisville for many little things he wanted.

Here he l fnand all means of transportation :destroyed, and the bank strongly giairded, but with the assistance of abotit thirty others, who had recognized hiin and joined .him in spite of his rainonstrances he suc ceeded iii making a raft, and he and Capt. Hines created over. He then hired a negro toWat his horse over, payipg him $2O for it. The river was so high thht the horse carne near drowning, and after more - than One hour's straggfing with the stream was pulled out so 'Alienated as scarce ly to b'e able to stead. The 'General Arew a blanket on him and cornmenned 'to walk him ; when suddenly-, `Fie says, he Was seized with a preken t ainent that he would be attacked, and remarking to Capt. Hines,. 'We will be attacked in twenty minutes,' commenced sad dling his horse. He had hardly tied the girth, when 'bang, bang,' went the Minnie balls; He bounced his horse, and the noble animal appear. ing to be inspired with new vigor, bounded off like a deerup the moun tain. The last he saw of his poor fellows on, tits .opposite side they Were dieappearing up the river bank, :liirod upon, .X*-ho _ - Yankees. By 'Chia time it was dark, and also rainin g '. He knew that a perfect 'cordon *ofidkets would sa r round the foot of the inthintain, and if he remained there until 'morning be would be lost. So he determined to run the gauntlet at once, and com menced to descend. -As he neared the foot, leading his horse, he same almost in personal contact with a picket. His first impulse was to kill butt finding him asleep he deter termined to let him sleep on. He made his way to the house of a Uni on man, that he knew lived near there, and went up and passed him self off as Captain Quartermaster of Hunt's regiment, who was on his way to Athens, Tennessee; to procure sup plies of sugar and cafes for the Uni on people of the county. The lady, appeared to be.

Sbpper being Over, the General reiharked that he understood some rebels had 'tried to 'cross the rivet this afternoon.' 'Yes,' said the *aunt); 'but our men killed sum on hitt, had driv the rest back.' 'how;' says the General, '1 know that, brit didn't some of them get over?' -'Yes,' was her reply, 'but they are on the thottntain, arid can't get down witbout beine , killed, as ev ery reed ie gtOOPOd tip.'

The geld, milt:icier any poor man's nerves, and . he yielded, and getting on a horse, he took them seven miles to the big road.

For years treason had been gath ering in might—had been appropriating to its fiendish lust more and more bountifully of the nation'shonore-- had grown steadily bolder in its assumption of power until it bad won the tolerance, if not the sanction of a formidable element of popular strength'efen in the con fessedly loyal buttes. The election of it,Yrinddent.in 1860, in strict conformity with the Consiitution and the laws, though not the cause, was deemed the fit occasion for an organized attempt to overthow the whole fabric of our free institunons and plunge a nation of thirty millions of people into hopeless anarchy. The grave of fence charged against the President-elect seemed alone to consist in his avowed fidelity to the Government, and his determined purpose to fulfil his solemn covenant to maintain inviolate the Union. of the Suttee.
