The doctrinal sermon, prepared by Dr. Winter, wail
delivered by that gentleman at the time appointed—ele
ven o'clock—after the usual services of singing and
Prayer. The text was from the eth verse of the 19th
chapter tf the Revelations Hallelujah ! for the Lord
God omnipotent reigneth." The preaoner remarked that
the field before us assumes the euhlime fundamen
tal truth that there is a God, worthy of all honor,
adoration, and contdecce. The Mete opens with
no Cecietration, no proof that God exists—than Is
asaumed as evident and undeniable. Those minds
of the pest %bleb labored to demonstrate Rio ex
istence were, doubtless, mighty ones, bat can scarcely be
said to have added greatly to man's knowledge in this
respect. The ignorant Greenlander, from the very sight
of his boat, and from a knowledge of the manner in
which it answered his purpose, argued a Creator, and an
intelligent one God's attributes are Inscribed on all
physical natu e from the system of suns to the moss that
°liege to the crumbling ruin, but moat of all upon man,
the greatest, the best of His works. The preacher's
sniarct, however, was the government of God. He Is,
but does He govern? The fatalist atoribes the motions
of the wind to the influence of inevitable destiny, and
meets the faith of the believer with subtle metaphy
stoat jergon. The athiest most blindly denies of
the existence of Creator and Governor, and the deist
brings forth a ecarcely more acceptable tenet. But the
hearts of all men are in God's bands, and tie can turn
them as be wills. Growth, revolution, decay, extinc
eon—these mutations, which the philosophy of the
world ascribes to the blind operations of chance, are but
actions of those laws of God which rule the tieiverse.
The Intervention of tbo Almighty, either in overturn
irg cr upbuilding, is evident throughout all history.
Upon individual minds and hearts His influence is felt,
in restraining them from evil, impelling them to good.
God made man to be ruled by law—net the law of ant
mal life, growth, decay, instinct, end reason alone, but
the law of His own will, addressed to his moral nature.
The antject presented is no barren speculation, for
reason arid conscience are both appealed to, and finally
the power which thus addressee them is given into the
bands of our divine Mediator, the God.man, Jesus
Christ.
The Rev. Dr. Dickinson and Rev. Dr. Kennard were
both in the pulpit. Dr. Dickinson offered a fervent
closing prayer.
We yesterday gave a very brief sketch of the history
of the Lower Dublin Baptist Church, from which the
Philatelphia Baptist Awociation sprang We are en
abled, through the kindness of Horatio Gates Jones, of
Roxborough. clerk of the associati. n, to give a few more
details, which may not prove uninteresting to some of our
readers. The minutes of this association, from 1707 to
1807, being the first hundred years of its existence, un
interesting as such tabs los may appear to the superficial
observer, de contain much that is not careleeely to be
mimed over. The century sermon, delivered at the open
ing of the association. in Philadelphia, October 6th, 1807,
by eannual Jouee, D. D., Pastor of the Baptist Church in
Lower Dublin, rehearses events very graphically. All
the met tinge teem tb have bean kept up with fervor, and
one, on October 26th, 1784, is doticeahte as Irwin; been
held at sunrise. The Century Minutes" gives 1687 as
the year of the orpanization of the church, but the
church records state meet positively that the date is
January, 1688 The exact situation, it will be observed,
was about eleven miles northwest from the State House,
and the name was at first Peennereeks, Peanepek, or
Pennypack, so called from a small nei4hb ming stream.
In 1794 the name of Lower Dublin was adopted The
first germ of the organization may be referred to the
arrival of a few persons out of Radnorehire, Wales, from
the Parishes of Lianddowl and 'Sentinel. As esrly as
1684, Rev. Thor. Dungan, from Rhode Island, had indeed
gathered a email Baptist church at Coldstream, Backs
county, but this - becoming extinct in 1702, four years
after the death of the pastor, was merged into the Pen
nepeck. The latter was ins tituted through the instru-
mentality of Bev. Elias Hertel], who had been Maritime by
Dutton. Subseenently, as the church increased In num•
hers and in influence, general meetings were appointed
twice a year, in May and in October. On December 16th,
1698, In Philadelphia, the famous Jobh Helene, who had
been baptized in Great Britain, met, with eight or nine
others, in .a house in Barbados/ Lot, northwest corner of
Second and Chestnut streets, and cookie/ into a church.
With more or less encomia the various organizations have
continued, but the Lower Dublin is now the only one of
the (nigh& bodies connected with the Philadelphia Bap
tist Aseociation.
AgTERNOON
Tho house was better Ailed th us in the morning, and
the time occupied by the reading of letters until four
o'clock. We have given above a list of those read
throughout the day.
Bev. Mr. J. B. Simmons then occupied the attention of
the congregation with some remelts in regard to foreign
" missteps. lie referred to the state of things at home and
abroad, and adverted to the effect of the present difficul
ties upon pnblio charities. The speaker said we had not
honored God as we should, but given the praise rather
to matt, and now God was angry with the nation, and de
termined to receive the glory which was his due.
FAIT. J. H. Castle, in continuance of these remarks,
alluded to the complaints of many, that the progress had
been slow of our work at home. In navy yards, in
fortresses, and foundries hands are said not to have
worked es busily as might have been ; but the nation
found when the time for action came that the army was
up to the mark. Bo it is with our foreign missions. Blow
preparation is necessary to quiet progress. and the day
Will come when prophecy will be [mulled in its very
widest interpretation. modern missions aro necessarily
slow in the work of development ; but with the educa
tion of the minds and hearts of each new generation
now and more important mltsionary results must ensue.
On application by Dr. Kennard, the First Baptist
Church, Wilmington, and the Millersville chum% were
admitted into the Association. The report of the com
mittee of the lit. Clair and Tamaqua churches add that
fin se were extinct, and by the action of the Society they
are consequently Jo longer connected therewith.
The resautions presented by Rev. James French, and
adopted, read as follows :
1. In view of the wonderful fulfilment of prophecy,
in the conversion of the heathen in the connection with
the we of means and efforts, and in answer to prayer ;
and in view of repeated resolations that all the members
of all our churches be recommended to manifest their
interest in missions by their efforti, prayers, and contra.
butions—
Resolved, That while we tt thank God and take con.
rage," that the acts of some show the sincerity of their
resolutions, we lament over the remlesnees of others,
who I , ear and do not,' , and pray God to spare his un
fruitful trees, and cause his present digging about their
roots to make limn more frultfol.
2. In view of the tact that the Missionary Union has
only its agents in America, we urge upon the pastors of
our churches to do the necessary agency work; and:lf
the attention of brethren is diverted from the work by
the exteting rebellion, we recommend to them to call to
their aid the noble women who have labored no falthfrilly
end anccesefully the present year, aed to seelc out bthere
alio pray for and love missions in churches which have
Leen delinquent, and request them to collect for thfe:
glo , ious °ante.
The report of the Committee on the State of the Conn- -
try next engaged the earuest attention of the audience,
and being carried mil adopted, we present them as they
stood. Thin committee Wall composed of J. Wheaton'
Smith, D. D., chairmen, Bev. J. H. Castle, and S. W.
C. our, Eeq.
Resolved. That as members of this association, we re
affirm our nneevering loyalty to the Government of these
United States.
Resolved, That In the trials through which we are
plotting EMI a nation, we recognize the guidance of the
Almighty, acd see not dimly the purpose of his love to
ontily.the fountains of our national life, and develop la
righteousness the elements of our national prosperity.
Resolved, That, ea Christian citizens of this Republic,
it is our bounden duty to renounce all sympathy with
sin, to rebuke all complicity with evil, and cherish a
simple,i cheerful Confidence in Him whose omnipotence
flo wed through a stripling's arm and sank into the fore
head of the Philistine.
Resolved, That in pursuance of this spirit, we hap
with joy the recent proclamation of our Chief Magistrate,
declaring freedom on the first day of January next to the
slaves in all the disloyal States, and say to him as the
people said to Ezra, Arise, for the matter belongeth
unto thee, we, alto, will be with thee; be of Pita courage
and do
Resolved, That In the name of liberty, which we love;
in the name of peace, which we would make enduring
in the name of humanity and of religion, whose kindred
hoses are blended, we protest against any compromise
with rebellion ; and for the maintenance of the war on
such a basis. whether for a longer or a shorter period, we
- pledge, in addition to our prayers, our lives, oar f0:-
totes, and our sacred honor."
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be for
warded to the President and his advisers, with assurances
of the honor in which, as Christians, we hold them, and
with our solemn entreaty that no one of them will, in the
discharge of duties however faithful for hie country, ne
glect the interests of his own personal salvation.
EVENING SESSION.
'lb. meeting opened at 7,44 o'clock with prayer by the
Rev Mr. Hyde, of New Jersey, after which a short and
comprebeueive address by J. P. Crozer, &eq The R ev .
B. J. Wilson then commenced by remarking that
Lord Bacon once said that knowledge is power, and
so it is. Steam and the telegraph, through their in
fluence, have connected Bodes and conntriee. Know.
ledge also exerts an intellectual influence over the
nations. Behold this land In its infancy, and the vast
change observable in it at present, and the Immense
metal Influence now wielded by America over the world.
.Nat because the is a free nation only, but bromide the
misses are civilized, mad knowledge Is allowed to scatter
its benente alt around. This it is which causes the Ame
rican flag to be respected throughout •the world. Com.
.pared with Divine wisdom, however, the human compre.
neneion must oink into insignificance. To some extent we
we moulded by our readings; thus tastes are cultivated, •
thee habit. are formed. What .is the_ mission tf the
Church Is it not to save and bless mankindl Is it
Lot our desire, in times of trouble like the present, to
guide aright the youthful mind I Among the issues of
this Society, the most important in the speaker's opinion
were Ile biographical work,. These hooka should be
strewn broadcast over the land. We need lu our churches
and Congregations an to tenser humanity. The minister
or any Christian who tarns away from the bleeding or
•crippled form turns away from the blaster. Wo should
manifest Hie spirit in going about doing. good, in .the
, camp, in the hospital, on the battle-field, in the stricken
dtomo, and to leserted and dospatilug relatives. And
there are many who will not come to us, so that we must
go to them.
The speaker then adverted to our present troubles, and
evidenced the result of the non• education of the South in
augmenting them, and of the - efficacy of the wide dlstri •
button through it of religions and educational books in
Preserving the Union when rebellion Is once fairly crushed,
Al sure on the sun etnks in darkness to rise in light, so
surely will rebellion and anarchy disappear, and peace
shed around renewed rays of glory.
Rev. J. Of. Cooper, of the Berrien Church, West
Philadelphia, referred in his opening remarks to the
iron-clad Alp, the New 'Y00041(314 and drew an apt own
% narLson between her, with her iogenlons contrivances
for Bating seamen who might be swept overboard,
and the ltducaffdnal and Publication Societies, with
their meens of offering rescue to the thousands
who need it. We speak of the omnipotence of the press,
and who indeed can limit its power I It is magical—
challenging not by its external meet, its .grand propor
tions, but by that wondrous power by which ft binds and
unites the nations of the globe. This power or the press
moulds the affections of the sonl, and touchei the heart,
the intellect, apd the will. A 'power which comes
to tbo sinner, and turns the scale of decision a power
which comes to the suffering child of God, which enters
into the lonely log-house and the mauntaln home; a
power which is univrial and universally effective. Such
is the power of the press, and snob is the power which
appeals meet fervently to American Baptiste for support.
This denomination loves civil liberty. Since the Revo
lution, American Baptiste have increased from sixty or
seventy thousand to a million, and those of the North
are bearing a most vender part in the ultimate SUCC933
of those institutions which are 11091 standing their se
verest trials. The speaker believed that we should
'moue succeeefnliy from the the .present contest The
Baptists number today (use-fourth of the men
and women of these Northern States. They should de
mand a literature that shall be free, full of spiritual life;
and which will reach alike to the staveholder and the
slave. Rev. Mr. Cooper was peculiarly interesting, and
no hasty sketch can do justice to hie poetry of draught,
beauty of wording, and eloquence of action and deliver,.
Boy. Mr. Henson, with a modest preface which his
after discourse showed was altogether unrolled for,
said that be did not deem it necessary to in
tuit either the intelligence or liberality of his audi
ence to press upon them the importanoe of the work
which lay before them. The time has been when, if any
one rose to plead the cause of ministerial veriest, as the
speaker did to-nigtt, he would be requested to sit down.
It is true that, other things being equal, he will be moat
successful in the Master's cause whose intellectual
Qualifications are the dished. Several historical al
lusions were adduced in evidence of this. Some seem
to think profound learning and profound piety are in
compatible, but history proves the reverse. Not igno
rant enthnelmnics, but those whose minds have been
educated and disciplined have been the great lights of the
world. There has been a prejudice against ministerial
education, because those thus educated have not always
reached the point which was expected of them. It must be
renembered, however, that education cannot tarnish
brains. The allusion to the ludicrous manner in which
acme fledgeling parsons display their learning was wittily
given, and produced very audible smiles. The speaker
closed with an earnest appeal for help for those in need
of these educational advantages, and Rev. Mr. Deer
followed with a similar urgent but short exhortation
The eloquence of the Baptist pulpit has not often been
better represented than on last evening, and the rapt at
tension of the large audience was the best evidence of it
appreciation.
U. B. GENERAL HOSPITAL, WEST
PHILADBLPHIA—FLAG RAIIHNG YES PiCBDAY
A FTBRN 00N.—One of the largest and beat institution',
of its kind, in this city, is that known as the 64 U. S.
General Hospital," situa ted near Forty- fifth and Pine
streets, West Philadelphia, in charge of Burgeon I I.
Hayes, the well-known Artic explorer, and distinguished
physician. Yesterday afternoon a large concourse of
ladies and gentlemen assembled to witness most Into.
resting ceremonies in raising a beautiful American
garrison flag presented to the hospital by the merchants
of Philadelphia. Although the heat of the afternoon
was most oppreseive and unseaeonable, the best of spirits
prevailed among the assemblage, and the whole affair
passed off satisfactorily to every one present. Toe
ladies and gentlemen began to assemble at an early hoar
in the afternoon, and contlened to arrive, on foot and in
every description of vehicles, until about four o'clock,
and it was pleasing to observe a preponderanoe of the
fair sex-present.
About three o'clock, the guard, composed of con
valescents comprising eoldlera from! many different
States, in new uniforms, were mustered by Lieutenant
Grath, and took a position forming three sides of a hol
low square in front of the neat and tasty stand, and
around the large flag-staff, the band employed for the
occasion taking a position immediately in front of the
guard. As Dr. Hayes and his personal staff mounted
the stage the band struck up 64 Bail to the Ohief;” after
which, the ‘i flag committee" were conducted to [the
stand, and in the absence of Mayor Henry, tdr. Brown,
chairman, made the presentation speech in a brief and
pleasant manner. Dr. Hayes accepted the flag for tbo
hospitel, which was presented to the color'griard, who in
turn conveyed it to the staff and heisted it, when Dr.
Hayes accompanied by Dra. Billings, Perry, Dixon ' and
Kt ffer, proceeded to the base of the staff, and the first
mentioned gentleman jerked the fly halyard, breaking
and unfolding the colors to the breeze, showering upon
the assembly beneath hundreds of small American flags,
rosette., etc.,
much to the surprise and delight of every
one present; the band played the 6 6 Eltar-Boangled Ban
ner,"
and the guard gave three hearty cheers for the
stars and stripes."
After a short, characteristic, amusing, and appropriate
speech by the Bev. Dr. West, chaplain of the hospital,
Hon. William D. Kelley was introduced, and, ae the ora
tor of the day, gave the audience a thrilling, patriotic,
and beautiful apostrophe to the banner then Boating
above them, miogling words which described its glorious
history, full of joy and sorrow in the pest, with that so
full of hope for the future. Ho said that the day would
soon come when that banrer would float orer the whole
thirty-four States in the Union, now as ever, even in
those Southern States in rebellion, but not until, by
power, we had subdued the belligerents, and brought
them again to reason. Judge Kelley paid an eloquent
tribute to Oen. McClellan, in alluding to his recent gene
ral order, No. 163, to the Army of the Potomac. . 4 In
raging that the civil power was to make laws. and it was
the duty of the army and its loaders to execute them,"
the orator thought that " Gon. McClellan had spread a
fresh halo of glory around his name." This expression
was 'warmly applauded. Judge Kelley was frequently
cheered during the course of bis remarks, which were
eminently patriotic and well-chosen.
At the conclusion of Judge Kelley's address the band
played " Watbington's Grand March," and cnntiansd to
entertain visitors until near dusk, when the people dis
persed to their more quiet homes. •
From interesting notes furnished to the press for publi
cation, by Bev. Nathaniel Werth D. D., Chaplain of the
Hospital, we select the following items :
• The United States Army General Hospital 'at West
Philadelphia is in all respects the most complete and ex
tensive in the Union. Ito location is close to the inter-
section of Forty-fourth and Pine streets, being the very
highest position in the city. It is upon an eminence af
fording a fine view of the surrounding country, and at
the saute time possessing all that could be wished for in a
sanitary point of view.
There are 28 wards, 107 feet long by 24 wide, each of
which will accommodate 70 patients. These wards are
in two rows of 14 each, 20 feet apart, and communi
cating with each other, and with the central or medical
building by means of two corridors parallel to each other,
775 feet long, which, are used for dining halls. Oon•
tented with each corridor, at the eastern end, are large
buildings for kitchens. storerooms, laundry, &c. There
are also separate buildings for baggage. knapsacks, &c.,
and for guard .barracks, besides numerous other oat•
building. There are 150 hospital tents on the ground,
which will accommodate 900 additional patients; also,
separate buildings for the cooking, laundry, dining
rooms, &c., of those occupying the tents.
The whole establishment covers twelve acres, and will
be enclosed in a fence 14 feet high.
The wards are all on the - first floor, befog, in fact, a
conies of one-story buildings, ventilated iu the most ap
proved manner. The number of patients that can be
conveniently accommodated aeggresent is 2,880.
The hospital' ig under the charge of Dr Isaac L Hayes,
commander of the late Arctic Expedition, assisted by
Dr. E. 0. Iddings. The officers and attendants of_ each
ward are a non-resident or consulting surgeon.. who
makes big visits every morning, at half past 10 o'elook ;
a resident-assistant surgeon, a medical cadet, a Sister of
°barfly (matron), a ward master, and a sufficient num.
bar of nurses.
Tim , kind attentions of the Sisters of Charity are highly
appreciated by the gallant men who have bled for their
country, and no praise is too high for this exemplary and
excellent association of benevolent ladies, self-dedicated
to the holiest principles of practical philanthropy. They
are. indeed, far above all praise, nor do they covet It.
The Medical Staff.—The nonresident acting Surgeons
are Joseph Leidy, A. Billie, Thomas Stewardson, E. A.
Smith, F. W. Lewis, W. F. Atlee, O. P. Tatt, B A. F.
Penrose, J. Da Costa, B West, William B. Halsey, D. H.
Agnew, James V. Hutchinson, H. L. Hodge, John IL
Packard. Blithe ("rowel', Frank West, Oeuspar,Wistar,
Robert E. Bedgers, and Edward Page.
The resident acting assistant surgeons are: 3. A.
Buchanan, N Hicliman, D. McMartrie, L. K. Baldwin,
W. 0. Dixon, Geo. H. Dick, M. %Perry, M. Lampert,
W. H. Matlack, H. O. Kellner, J E. Oassel.
The medical cadets are. George Kno,r, F. A. Keffer,
S. Eakin, 0. T. Lowndes, W. D. Trull, John M. Dick.
son, James Williams, J. W. Oadwell, Benjamin Hammil,
F. W. Saunders.
To this roll of consulting non-resident surgeons, real.
dent acting assistant surgeons, and medical satiate, con
siderable additions have been made since August 2, and
the increase meet continue, as the increase of patients
continues. The number now will not fall far abort of
fifty. To these may be added twelve draggiste and ober
macopolists, a large pharmacopla and laboratory, where
the science of pharmacy h cultivated constantly.
The West Philadelphia limits' chaplains ere
Nathaniel West, D D., BAN. Alex. McLeod, D. D., and
Bev. Mr. Crane. In this grand establishment are ever
three thousand souls, including the medical staff and the
Nations classes of hospital attendants. Hie labor, hoc
epus est. Never could be found a more responsible sta.
Lion for ministers of Christ, or a grander opportunity of
doing good.
All in authority, the genet al commanding, the medi
cal director, the quartermasters the surgeon in charge,
the chaplains, and all concerned, heartily concur in the
project of erecting an hospital chapel. The place and
specifications are in preparation—the site is selected,
d nothing but money wanted. This the Christian
filotole of Philadelphia will not withhold. A city whose
devotion to the army has been so largely Droved, whose
loyalty to the Government has been eo eminently mani
fested, will enrely give• bee Dick and wounded a hones
for God, that it may prove the gate of heaven to their
souls.
A COMPLIMENT TO PHILADELPHIA.
HOSPITALS AND PHIL kDELPHIA LADIES.--A.
Member of the let Virginia Regiment, now wounded and
under the c re of the United States General Hospital,
Chestnut street, writes an interesting letter to the Na
fiend/ Intelligences at Washington. The following ex-
Wet shows the appreciation in which a Philadelphia
hospital is held by one who has been so fortunate as to
have been sent here:
Allow me to ask a little space in your columns, to tell
you something about the observations of one Western
Virginia boy in a Philadelphia hospital. Along with a
great many elck and wounded I was brousht to this hos
tal three weeks ego. I expected no each good treat.
meet and good times as we have, The soldiers, a
a general thing, dread the hospitals; but here it is
different. Our trip hero was very pleseant, indeed.
Wbile passing through Baltimore, a great many 'Haim'
ladies and gentlemen came out to Bee us and to wave
their bankerchiefe to us. They seemed filled with good
feeling for us. This is what I did not expect in Balti
more. At Wilmingt. n the ladies come crowding into the
cars with all sorts of nice delicacies for the sick and
wounded, and they stopped to express sympathy with
every soldier, accordingly as he was trinch sick or much
butt. They were very kind; and we shall never forget
the dear ladies of Wilmington, in the little State of Dela
ware. if people only knew how much good such de.
monstrations do the heart of the soldier, they would be
more lavish of them. They make him feel like a new
being, and no odds how much ho suffers, it makes him
prood to suffer.
At Philadelphia, we were received as - we were in Wil
mington. Nothing can exceed the kindness of the people
who frequent the hospitals. Tbey are here all hours in
the day, old and young, and the most beautiful ladies of
the city, too. I have felt, as I have received attentions
from some of these sweet, fair creatures, as if I could rise
np from my bed of 'sickness and gladly die for the glori

[Extract from a letter on the Battle field.]
* * * * * *
This battle (Antietam) has been the moat sanguinary
of the war, and the only one fought with design and
upon military ppinciples. The arrangement of our corps
—the overlooking position of the Oemendleg General
—the sending into action the right and the loft—the
cloeing up of the centre and final 'lncome—excites be
wildering admiration, and carries the mina to the great
fields of Austerlitz and Wagrato, fought by Napoleon.
Of all this have I spoken. The heart-hblitory of snob a
conflict, pnrchaeed by the life and blood of twenty thou
sand men, must be found in the hospitals. War has its
glories—but it has its ten thousand demons in these hu
man tortures, that make the eyeballs ache—the heart
bleed—the lips palsy—and the brain reel. The sight Is
at first positively unendurable. The life- blood of some
is still trickling away in silent calmness, while the disse
vered limbs and maniac brain of others give rise to sounds
God grant I may not again witneea.
But, ye mothers who now seek a son—or wife a hue
band—or eister a brotheror eons a father—know and
be consoled that even here the hand of mercy le watch•
ful, and better care is bestowed upon your loved one
than might at first teem possible. It was In the hospital
whore rooted the gallant Brooker that I learned the his
tory of those mythical words so often seen and so little
understood, t' ti. T.-1860—X.'l Anything alleviating
the sufferings and saving the lives of our soldiers is a na
tional blessing. I witnessed some astonishing results
from this articio7
It is well known the effect of burnt gunpowder and ex
citement Is thirst, which, added to the loss of blood in the
wennded, creates the necessity of a reviving stimulant.
In this particular hospital, the physioians were allowing
their patients to drink Plantation Bitters, otherwise
called S. T.-1860-2E, and although the wounded are
most numerous here—this division having opened th
fight at 5 in the morning—the men were mostly com
posed, and there was but very little fainting. The arti
cle acts upon the stomach and nerves in a most incom
prehensible manner, superior to brandy, and without
subsequent stupefying reaction. It originated In the
West Indies, containing calisaye bark, winter green, la-*
vender, anise, clove buds, orange, snake root, &0., pre
served in St. (hotel:tam—the S. T.-1880--X being a se
met ingredient, not yet revealed to the public. It is
'principally recommended for want of appetite, disordered
liver, intermittent fevers, stomachic difficnittes, &c. I
understand it was somewhat known in the Southern
States previous to the war, and it appears an agent of
Jefferson Davis recently applied to the proprietors for the
privilege to make It for hospital purposes during the war,
to which they made the following reply
1.12 w Yomt, Jan. 18th, 1882.
Mr.
Agent of, etc. :
DEAR SIR : In reply to your communication, offering
us Fifty thousand dollars for the recipe
_and right to
make the Plantation Bitters for hospital purposes during
the war," we beg to say your price in a liberal one, con
sidering it would cost us nothing to comply, and that
otherwise we can derive no revenue from the Southern
States but, sir, our duties to our Government and our
ideas of consistency, would not allow us to entertain it,
although it night please us to assuage the sufferings of
your misguided followers.
We remain,
Very respectlntlY Yonro,
P. H. DRAKE & 00.
These, gentlemen give the history of certain ingredients
of their article for over two hundred years—showing
that through all changes of the medical profession and Its
practitioners, strength, composure, and cheerfolnesshave
been derived from these sources. Dr. Woods, in the
Washington Hospitals, informed me that ho had been
unable to produce an hour's sleep in one patientfor near
ly two weeks, and he was fast sinking and crazy, until
the Plantation Bitters came to hie knowledge, when one
day's trial gave him a night's rest, and he was now fast
recovering. I am surprised our Government has not
equalled Jefferson Davis in energy, and adopted this in
valuable article in all our hospitals. As a lay member, I
can bear witness it is tt good to take," and affords more
energy and life than anything I ever tried. Success
to the Plantation Bitters !
But I hare digressed. In my next I shall speak or

TWO KOBE OBSTINATE CASES CUBED
PHILADELPHIA, ti opt. 23, 1862
bott five years ago, my general health began to fall,
although at first I did not feel much alarmed, hut my
sufferings at times were severe. I gradually became
emaciated, and at ti nee nearly lost boy appetite, and what
I ate produced great distress, and the pbysicians who
treated me did not seem to understand my disease from
pathological symptoms. At times, I had great difficulty
of bred king; some palpitation of the heart ; often great
trembling of the limbs; great aversion to business and to
company. At limes, very gloomy; great inability to
collect my thoughts vigorensly on any subject loss of
memory at times; suffered mach from lumbago, swim
ming of the head ; suffered much from apprehensions. of
as my physicians told me that 1 had symptoms
of fits. However, after trying the old school remedies
for many years, and being informed that I could not be
cured, I was induced, by reading several certificates in
The Press and other papers, to converse with the per
sons cured, and after I hed received good evidence from
investigations of this kind, I immediately applied to
Professor Bolles, 1220 Walnut street Professor B. lo
cated my disease in the pelvic vieera in thirty minutes
after I entered his office. He frankly informed me that
he could cure me of all my difficulties; in ten days, and
I em wiling to acknowledge that I wag perfectly onred
In seven treatmenta of about ten minutes each • ' and
to me this is most astonishing, for I had abandoned
nearly all hopes of ever being any better. In answer to
my convictions of duty to suffering humanity, I have
made the above statement of facts in relation to my own
wonderful cure, and I believe it permanent, for sufficient
time has elapsed for a return ; therefore, I feel certain
I shall take pleasure in being referred to by any person or
persons who mar be suffering as I was.

THICiDELPERAi Dept - 18; 1.861.
I have been reverely afflicted with dyspepsia and
disease of my throat and lungs for more than three years,
and at times was unable to attend to business. During
the whole time, I have suffered from obstinate consti
pation, and my efforts with meeker agents produced no
change. I have not neglected to employ the beet medi
cal skill in this city, and have attended to their pm
soriptions faithfully for the past three years, and they
bad all failed to dome any permanent good. At a time
when I bad nearly abandoned all hopes of being cured, I
was induced to call on Professor Bolles, at 1220 Walnut
street, and place myself under his treatment, and' in a
abort time I was perfectly cured. I have seen others
who have been cured of most obstinate disease•. From
what I personally know of Professor. B.'s discovery in
applying Magnetism, and other modifications of Elec
tricity. I can cheerfully recommend hie mode of treat . -
meta to all invalids. 1 have sent some persons there who
have been cured, and, therefore, I speak from a know

Please take notice that Prof. B. does not advertise any
certificates of cures, except those cured In this city.
He has established himself for life In this city, and
his success in treating the sick is a saMoient guaranty
that he claims nothing but scientific facts In his discs
very in the use of Electricity as a reliable therapeutic
agent.
N. B.—ltovill be well for the diseased to recollect that
Prof. B. haegiven a word of caution in his pamphlet, to
guard them against trusting their health in the bands of
those in this city claiming to treat diseases according to
his discovery. This caution may seem severe on those
using Electricity at haaard, but it is the severity of
truth, and designed for the good of humanity. See ad
