FROM HELENA, NATCHEZ, &C.
.[Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette. ]
Cairo,. Feb' 13.— General Baford, at Helena, on
the etfi, arrested a rebel scout named Levy, an of
ficer in Captain Gibson’s rebel company, and of
rebel General Polk’s staff. He is intelligent and
of commanding planners. • He-had crossed the
river with a horse oh a little cotton trading
steamer, and represented to the Government Aid
on the boat that he was one of General Baford’s
going -with important intelligence .-to his
camp.. General Baford learning the facts, ar
rested the Government Aid, and pent scout's on the
track of. wfcat proved to be, when captured, a spy
in the rebel service.
Advices from Natchez to the sth inst., say tne
. town is now showing signs of vigor. Thepl an }fs®
Who hitherto held off are returning to their aiie
giance, and receiving back their iami-’d propen,y.
3ft o less than sixty haye taken the president aoatn
within -a • few kiays. Deserters are coraiug in
daily; fifteen arrived from Alex-tiidria J 1 J*
days ago, and four this forenoon *r om th=i same
point/ bringing a captain and of their
regiment as prisoners The rebels arc pressing all
the male Txu-tion of the inhabitants, lrom sixteen
to sixty sears of age, into the rauks,'besides 10b
bine the poor-of what few necessaries they have.
Boots fetch $2OO. A coat is wor-h SSUO, and pants,
$450. Women’s shoes, SIOD to $llO. Nothing la
plenty but corn nwftd and pork, and even these
command fabulous prices. Cotton is worth. $’UO
per bale, Confederate trash; equal to $3 in green •
backs or Sffiffgold. Whole tracts are made deso
late. Stores are rotting for repairs. Unless the
States shall step in and put :a ©top to the dolng3
of the Confederate chiefs;-the whole country
bids fair to become a howling wiMerness
in a' Sew years. Another source of
congratulation to Union men is the very
large Union’ sentiment which prevails in
some quarters. Eighty-five men have been re
cruited for the 2d Louisiana cavalry from one sec
tion alone." Delegates of influential citizens are
arriving and-begging for arms and assistance to or
ganize home guards for of their
rights and the restoration of the power of the
‘United States.- There is much sickness in the con
traband edmps. - The smallpox prevails.exten
sively. Many are dying for want of proper
treatment. There are also many eases among the
citizens.
The Treasury Department for the district of
Natchez is in full force under the admirable super
vision of Judge Hart, assisted by Mendenhall,
Delap, Mills and other gents. The freezing of the
Mississippi caused a great rise intheprice of pro
visions. Flour is $l5 per barrel, apples 312,pota
toes §B, beef 15c. per lb. lor choice cuts, mutton
32#c. •
The 4th lowa (newly recruited) Battery is fur
nished with two 32-pound howitzers, and lour,
rifled steel guns. All have for several days been
Sractising gunnery under the Instruction of Lieut.
. W/Mitthell, of Gen Beed’s staff. They ex
hibited wonderful proficiency for the short time
they have practised.
Through the drunkenness of the jailer a number
of the most notorious horse thieves and .counter
feiters, effected their escape from the Cairo jail last
night. The tools used in cutting their way out,
were found. The jailer was arrested and placed
in the guard-house, charged with complicity in
their escape.
A. J. Smith, Colonel of the 4th Mississippi In
fantry, of African des eut, and J. L. Coats rep
resenting himself as Major of the 9th U. S. In
fantry, were arrested for drnnkenn*as .aind dis
orderly condnct one evening this week by Provost
Marshal Tallmadge, who placed them in the
guardhouse over night, when they were taken
before Brig. -Gen. Reid, who gave them a moral
lecture for their disgraceful conduct, and dis
charged them. Brigadier General Oheathoxn, late
Colonel of the 12th Hliiois, is appointed to the
command of colored troops in the State, of Ten
nessee. He left on the steamer Sultana lor his
quarters at Memphis.
The steamer Mann, from Memphis to Cincinnati,
had C2O bales of cotton, mostly for Cincinnati.
The Memphis cotton market is reported dull on
the loth at 70a?lc.

A ’VOICE FROM KANSAS,
To the Editor of the Star—Sin: l enclose yon a
letter from a young Englishman—a man of Kent
now in the United States of America, to his father
in the'Tower Hamlets. This young man left this
country-at the age of seventeen—in IBsi—to join ‘
his brother at Rochester, in the United States who
had gone a year -before. He first worked in a
nursery, and has continued to work on the laud
an 1 brought himself into his present position. He
had not 21. when he reached the American shore,
but he was trained to industry, which was better
tban money. Having been nearly burned to death
when a child, it was advised that he should turn
up the soil to give him strength; happily it has
d<me so, and I am proud to call him my son.
By inserting the letter in your liberal paper yon
Will obligeyour humble servant. O. "WILLIS.

“ KANSAS TEURiTbUY, Dee. 9, 1-63 Dear
Father .-—I write to let yon know where I am and
what lam doing. I believe I told you in a former
letter ;that my farm of forty acres of land, my
team of horses, and my threshing machine I had
paid for, Arid, some money to spare. Having a
love for the Government of the United States, and
great respect for the Stars and Stripes, I hare en
listed to do battle for the same, and to protect our
own State. I have for the last six months been
running my threshing machine with good
luck. I have earned two hundred dollars
and sold out for the same I gave. I enlisted
two months since, -as we have had a great c eal ©f
trouble here. No doubt you heard of the great
massacre at Lawrence, but we feel in hopes that
the Union will soon triumpn. Everything isgoiri»
on in favor of the Government. I likesoldiering°
I am acting as a sergeant, and shall soon be made
one. lam in the Kansas Cavalry. Mypa?is si7
per mouth. I shall save all lean, and improve
my tend when I get out of the service, if I am not
killed; and if I should bo killed it will be an hon
orable death, for I consider fighting ior liberty is
right. Then conquer we must for in Got is
onr trust. I thought of coming home to
see you this winter, but Isball rfbt come till I am
discharged. I enlisted for three years, but I may
be discharged before. We had line weather, and
good wheat crops. Produce of all kinds is high.
Wages are good for all kinds of work Out voun*
State is Prospering well. Railroads are bein'
made. Everything is improving fast, a good
chance for a man to get a farm here now very
cheap Nearly all the boys have gone into service
Those/that have not are called Secessionists I
think it my duty to fight for my country. Libert,
and freedom tire the best ana noblest cause that
man can fight for. Your affectionate son,

IN BTSMENORRBCEA, OR PAINFUL MEN
SITUATION; AND MENORRHAGIA,
Both'diseases arisiog from & faulty secretion of
tbs xnwuttrcal iluid—in case of bring too little, and
accompaniedby severe pain, and tbs other a too
pror«i* secretion, which will b« speedUy cored by
toe Constitution Water.
Tbe diseate known as FALLING OF THE
WOMB, which ia the remit of a relaxation of the
ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense
of heaviness an«i*dra£jtiag~pain* ia the back and
sides, and at times accompanied by sharp, lanci
nating or shooting pains throngh tie paru, will,
ia all cases, b*» cured by this medicine.
There Js another class vx srmptoms arising from
IRRITATION O>;THE WOMB, which physi
cians sail nervousness, which word covers up
much ignorance,rsnd in nine cases ©it of ten the
doctor docs z.oireally know whether the symptoms
are the diiease or the disease the symptoms. W«

Heart, Impaired Memory, Wakefulness, Flashes

SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION,

Dr. Tfa. H. Gregg—Dear Sir: In February,
IKI, I wa. afflicted with sugar diabetes, aud for
five month. I paired sere than two gallons of
water ia twenty-lour hour*. X war obliged to get
up as often u ten of twelve times during tho night,
and in Eve months I lost about fifty pounds in
weight. Doling the month of Jnly. ISSI, I pro
cured two hottlea uf Constitution Water, and in
two days alter using it I experienced relief, and
after taking two bottles I was entirely enrod; ebon
alter regaining my usual good health.
Tours truly, J. Y, L. DEWITT.
Boston Cosnsns, N. Y., Dec. -17, l£6l,
Wm. H. Gregg A Co.—Gents—l freely give you
liberty to make use of tho following Certificate of
tho value of Constitution Water, which I can re
commend in tho highest manner:
' H y wife was attached' with pain in the
shoulders, whoie length uf tho bach, and in her
limbs, with Palpiiaiien tf i\c Heart and IrriSsUon
ef Hi AtaMer. : I called a physician, who at
tended her throe months, whsn he left her worse
than he had found her. I then employed one of
tho host phyaieiant T could find, who attended her
lor about nine months, and while she was under
nincare sbedid not suffer quite as much pain.
He finally gave her up and. said, her cast was in
ettraile. “For,” said he, “jic has suo\
a eemisnafiev e/compiu.iile, that medteine given for
one operates against seme e-Acr ef her tUffteultUi. ”
About this time she commenced tho use of the
CejrsTiTUTiox Watbh, and, to our ntter astonish
ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de
sired effect, and she hept on improving rapidly
under its treatment, and now superintends entirely
her dome»tlcaffairs. She has not taken any of the
Com sti tut ion W atbr for about four weeks, and
we are happy to say that it has predneed a perma
nent care. IVM.II. YAN BENSCHOTEN.

Dr. W. H. Gregg—Dear Sir—Having seen your
advertisement of •«Oonstitntlon Water,” recom
mended for inflammation of the Kidney s and Irri
tation of the Bladder, having suffered for the past
three years, and tried the skill of a number of phy
sicians with only temporary relief, I was induoed
to try your medicine. I procured one bottle from
your agents nt Hartford, Messrs. Lee, Sisson A
Oe., and when I had used half of it, to my sur
prise I found a great change in my health. I have
need two bottles of it, and am where I never ex
ricted to be in my life, well, and in good spirits.
cannot express my gratitude for it: I feel that it
is all and more than yon recommend it to be. May
the blessing of God ever attend yon in your labors
of love. Tours, truly,
LEONARD S. BIGELOW.
THESE ARE FACTS ENOUGH.
We prerentthe Constitution Water.to the pnblio
with the conviction that it has no equal in reliev
ing the class of diseases for which it has been
found so eminently successful in curing; and we
trust that we shall be rewarded for our efforts in
placing so valnable a remedy in a form to meet the
requirements of patients and physicians.
