WISHART'S DYSPEI?SIA
A POSITIVE CURE FOR
D Y P F P S It A..
-TUE GREAN ANLIMI3IOI
D'SrSIC- 1. 3EP.41EA.
WHAT IS DYSPEPSIA
DYSPEPSIA HAS THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS
Ist. A constant pain or uneasiness at the pit of the
sttanach, which is caused by a permanent contraction of .
the stomach upon undigested food. It generally begins
immediately or a short time after eating; is often val..) ,
severe ana obstinate.
/2d. Flatulence and Aeidily r& .—These ay-moto arise
rum the indikeetion of food, which ferments instead of
digeetine.
Costiimmees arid lose of appetite.—These symptoms
are the effects of the unnatural condition of food_in the
stomach. hnd the want of pure bile and gastric juice.
The stomach is often painfully distended by wind.; the
appetite is sometimes voraeions.
9th. Gloom snit Depreeoion of Spirits —This state
unfits many for the enjoyment of life. and is caused by
the impuro blood furnished by imperfect digestion. In
this stage of the disease many persons commit suicide.
There is' a constant foreboding of evil, and an indiffe-s
and positive inability to perfoim the offices of life.
sth. Diarrhow. —Alter being first costive, the sufferer
is afflicted with diarrhoea, which is owing to a diseased
condition of-the bowels, produced by the undigested
food, which is evacuated fin the same condition as when
eaten, and of course gives ue strength to the system. •
6th. Pain's in rrlt partniti the system arise from the
action of impure blood upon the nerves. They are felt
chiefly in the head, sides, and breast, and in the extre
mities. In many cases there is an uneasiness in the
throatovith a sense of choking or suffocation; the mouth
is often clammy, with a bad taste and furred tongue.
- •
7th. Contuinptive Symptoms o'ml Palpitation of the
Heart.—Many Pereons Pronounced as having tithes die
eases, have, in fact, nothing but Dyspepsia, the lung
and heart diseate being only symptoms.
13th. Cough.—This is a very frequent symptom of Dys
pepsia,and leads very often into 'confirmed consumption.
9th. Wend of Sleep. —A very distressing symptom, re
sulting often in mental derangement.
10th. Simaptoms of external relation —The patient is
affected painfully by chid and heat, which is owing to
unnatural dryness of the skin, and the skin is often af
fected by eruptions and tellers. The gloomy dyspeptic
avoids society as much as possible.
11th. Vomiting. —A frequent and distressing symptom.
It relieves the pain, bat emaciates and wears out the
patient. . '
12th. Da7I.??PSS, dimness of v1e071., headache, and
staggering in walking —These are very alarming syme
toms. which are speedily removed by our medicine; bykt
if nett], cted are quickly followed by numbness and sud
den death.
13th. —lt is impossible for as to give all the symptoms
of DyspePsiain so small a space, bat , the suers are con
sidered suflicient—if we-add. that the patient loses his
memory and attention to surrounding objects, and ire..
quently becomes morose and sour in disposition. We
should say, however, that pains in the joints and stiff
ness of the limbs, which go by the name of rheumatism
and neuralgia, are very often produced by Dyspspsis.
Also, a hardness of the muscles of the abdomen, which.
become contracted and hard; and in some cases the belly
sinks, instead of being gently prominent.
DYSPEPSIA ! DYSPEPSIA ! ! DYSPEPSIA. ! !
I, ELIZABETH BILAINEION,
of Brandywine, - ,Del., Pir
merly of Old Chester. Del., do - cetify that for one year
and a half I soffered everything but death from that
awful disease called Dyspepsia My whole system was
prostrated with weakness and nervous debility; I could
not digest my food. ; 111 ate even a cracker, or the small
est amount of food, it would return just as I swallowed.
it; I became so costive in my bowels that ['would not
have a pasrage in less tnan from lour. and often eight
days; under this immense suffering my mind seemed en
tirely to give way I had dreadful horror and evil fore
bodings. 1 thought everybody hated me. and I hated.
everybody; I could not bear ray husband nor my own
children; everything appeared to be horror. stricken to
me; I had no ambition to do anything; I .lost all my
love of family and home; I would ramble and wander
from place to place, but could not be contented. I felt
that I was doomed to hell, and that there was no heaven
for me, and was often tempted to commit suicide, so
near was my whole nervous system destroyed, and also
my mind, from that awful complaint, Dyspepsia.' t hat
my friends thought it best to have me placed in Dr.
Rirkbride's Hospital, at West Philadelphia. I remained
there nine weeks, and thought I was a little better, bat
in a few days my di eadfril complaint was raging as bad
as ever. Ilearingof the wonderful 'cares performed by
Dr: Wishart'e Great American Dyspepsia Pills and his
treatment for D3-spepsia, my husband called. on Dr.
Wishart and stated my case to him. He said he had no
doubt he could cure me. .
So in three days after I called and placed myself under
the Doctoes treatment, and in two weeks I began to di
gest my food, and lelt that my disease was fast giving,
way, and I continued to recover for amont three months, •
and. at the present time I ettioY perfect health of body
and mine. and -I most sincerely return lay thanks to a
merciful God and Dr. Wtshart, and to his great Ameri
can Dyspepsia Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial, that
saved me front ari insane asylum and a premature grave.
All persons suffering with Dyspepsia' are at liberty to
call on me or write, - as I am willing to do' all the good '.I
can for suffering humanity.

DYSPEPSIA! DYSPEPSIA.
Dn. WISJIART: I have been a constant suffarer with.
Dyspepsia Inc the last eighteen years, during whicn
time I cannot say that I ever enjoy ed a perfectly well
day. There were times when the symptoms were more
aggravated than at others, and then it seemed it would
be a great relief to die. I had at all times an unpleasant
feeling in my head, but latterly my sufferings so lunch
increased that I became almost until for bessiness of any
kind. My mind was constantly filled with-.gloomy
thoughts and forebodings. and if I attempted -to change
their current by reading, at once a sensation of icy cold
nees, in connection with a dead weight. as -it were.
rested upon my brain ; also a feeling of sickness NVO aid
occur at she stomach, and great pain to my eyes, accom
panied with which wa. the continued fear of losing my
reason..
. .
I also experienced great lassitrole,dehility,and nervous
ness, which made it difficult to walk by day or sleep at
night. I became averse to society, and dispos ad only to
seclusion, and. having tried the skill: of a number of emi
nent physicians of various schools, finally came to toe
conclusion that, for this disease, at my present age, gi
years, there was no care in existence. But, through
the interference of Divine Provideoce, to whom I de
voutly offer, my thanks, I at last found a sovereign
remedy in your Dyspepsia Pills and Tar 'Cordial, which
seem to have effectually removed almost the last trace
of my long list of ailments and bad feelings, and in their
place leapt], pleasure, and contentment are my every
day companions. LIKES M. SA.UNDEE

I. MOSES TOBIN. of.Cheltenham, Montgomery county.
Pa., have suffered for more than one year everything
but death itself, from that awful disease, called Dyspep

physicians in Philadelphia. They did ail they could
for me, with medicines and capping, bat still - I was no
better -'I then went to the Pennsylvania . University, in
order to place myself in reach of the best Medical talents
in the country, but their medicines tailed to do me any
good, and oftthues I wished for death to relieve me of
my sufferings, out seeing Dr. Wishart's advertisement
in the Pniladelphia Bulletin, I determined to try once
more but with little faith. I called on Dr, Wishatt, and
told him if I could have died I would not have troubled
him, and then related my sufferings to him. The
Dr. assured me if he failed to cure me of Dyspep
sia,,it would be the first case in two years. so put
myself under his treatment; aid although I had been
for months vomiting nearly everything I ace, my
stomach swollen with wind, and filled, with pain be
yond description, I bought a box of - hie Dyspepsia
Pills, I used them as directed, and in ten days I could
eat as hearty a meal as any person in the State of Penn
sylvania; and in thirty days was a well man I invite
any person suffering as I was to call and see me, and I
will relate my suffering and the great sure I received.
I would say to all Dyspeptics, everywhere, that Dr.
Wishart is, I believe, the only person on the earth that
can cure Dyspepsia with any degree of certainty.

DR, WISH ART.—Sir : It is with much pleasure that r am .
now able to inform you that, bythe use of your great
American Dyspepsia Vine, I have been entirely cored. of
that meet distressing complaint, DYsnePsia I had been
grievously afflicted for the last twenty-eight years, and
for ten years of that time have not been free fiorn its pain
one week at a time. 1 haveliad it in its worst form, and
lave dragged on amost miserable existence—in pain day
and night. Every kind of food that I ate filled me with
wind and pain, it mattered not how lightor how small the
quantity ; a continued belchingwas sure to follow. I had
no appetite for any kind of meatswhatever. and
my distress was so great for several months before
I heard of your Pills, that I frequently wished for death.
I had taken everything that I had heard of for Dyspepsia,
without receiving any benefit; but on your Pills being
recommended to me by one who had. - been cured by
them. I concluded to give them a trial although I had
no faith in them. To my astonishment, I found myself
getting better before I had taken one-fourth of a box,
and after taking half a box, .I am a well man, and can
ea t emy tht ag rwish, and enjoy a hearty meal three times
a day, without inconvenience „from- anything eat or
drink. If yon think proper, you are at liberty to make
this public and refer,to me. I will cheerfully give all
desirable information to any one who may call on me.

mucus until it cracked iu large Turrows, and was dread

me of my sufferings, for. I had lost all hope of ever

' prayer to
God that be would direct me to some physician
or medicine. that World cure me. I was told to
read an advertisement of Dr. Wishart's,. in the.
Philadelphia Ledger , of a great cure made upon
Mr. John Babcock, of No. 1628 Olive street,. Philadel

He is accompanied by only two personal aids.
General Thiamin baa assumed the command
A late report of the Chattanooga Rebcl says that
Bragg will be undoubtedly relieved for his failure to
defeat Rosecrans in the late battle, and it is yet un
decided whether Johnston, Longstreet, or Lee will
be his successor.
The late rains have swollen the Tennessee river

STRVRIXSON, OCt.2l.—Genhle Grant and Rose.
crane both arrived Here last night, the one from
Nashville, the other from Chattanooga ; and were

gathering attracts much attention.
MILITARY CHANGES
WASHINGTON, Oct. 33—[Special to the Worldl—
The facts in regard to chahgea at the Weat, as now
ofHoially aecettained, are as follows:
-1. General Resew ens is relieved.
2. General Thomas assumes his command of the
Armyref the Cumberland.
3. The departments of the Ohio (Burnside), CUM.
berland (Thomas), Tennessee (auribut), and Vicks
burg (IYlnnerson), are consolidated into one grand
" military division of the Mississippi," under the
command of General Grant. -
4. Generals Hooker and Sherman, the latter now
at Inks, will command corps in the field
S. General Grant's headquarters will be in the
field ; he leaves for the front to-morrow.
6. MoPherson's department will extend front the
Department of the Gulf to Napoleon:
(From the llPrald.
General Rosecrans, it is underatood, goes to no
new command at present, but will await elsewhere
the command of the War Department. It is stated
here that Roaecransi like McCook and Crittenden,
falls a victim to the sharp eyes of the wide•awake
and energetic:Dana, Assistant Secretary of War,
who has been with the army since the 7th of Sep.
tember last. Certain it is that Dana did the country
much service in procuring the removal of AlcCooic
and Crittenden, out. I cannot say that he has done
equally as well in effecting that of Rosecrans.
EAST. TENNESSEE
Immediately after his occupation of Knoxville,
Gen. Burnable organized a National Guard, to em
brace all the loyal men of East Tennessee. We are
gratified to learn that the ranks are being rapidly
filled up. Anew United States artillery regiment
is being formed at Knoxville, and six hundred men
kat oncejoinecl it. If we can' hold East Tennessee,
as -we led certain that we can, we may obtain
twenty thousand excellent soldiers from that sec
tion or the State. We also learn, that there is a
large able-bodicd population left in spite of the
rebel conscription, and that it is a source of profound
surprise -to see the country so full of wealth in the
foim of agricultural produce. The corn crop is
enormous.
ORITIVISIE Or THE LATE BATTLE.
The following extract is from a private letter
printed in the Chicago Tribune;
I think we ought to have had, and did have,
75,000 men and 207 pieces of artillery in action on -
Sunday, but I put the figures at the lowest notch,
and you may bet on their correctness. Joe Johnston
may possibly have had 75,000 men under his com
mand, but 1 do not think it, for if he had we would
have been driven into the Tennessee river, so poorly
were our forces handled, You cannot fail to notice
the immense amount of our artillery. Of this we
lost between thirty and fifty pieces. I heard Gen.
Mitchell say he thought our loss would not exceed
thirty pieces, while some put it at fifty pieces. The
medical men say our loss in killed and svounded is
between 11,000 and 12,000 ; While our loss in prison
ers is between 5,000 and 7,000. All our severely
wounded were left in the enemy's hands, as - well as
the bodies of the - slain on the field, for we were
forced back- a distance of nine miles. And all this
horrid 'slaughter took place, or nearly all, between
11 o'clock and 1 o'clock on Sunday—two short hours.
. I believe that the rebel loss in killed and wounded
is as great, and perhaps greater thazi our own, and
we havesome 1,500 prisoners.
When Rosecrans commenced his movement- on
Chattanooga, Bragg lay there with about 25,000
men, which was amply sufficient to hold the 'place
against any force which might attack in front, or
from the north side of the Tennessee. Now old
Rosecrans , plan,was to send Orittendents corps down
to attack Chattanooga in front, (that is, from the
north side of the Tennessee river), while he, with.
ThomatrantiMcCook, should - troes•Lookont Moon.
tain, and come in the rear' of the town, cutting off
Bragg from all reinforcemente and making him
either come out on the open field, and rink all on the
fate of a single battle, when we had the choice of the
ground, and a vastly superior army, or else lie in his
entrenchments at Chattanooga, and starve to death,
as Pemberton did at 'Vicksburg.
Well, just as Rosecrans had succeeded in making
the movement. Joe Johnston arrived with a few
thousand inen from Mobile, and took command, or
_dered the evacuation of'the town, •and commenced
making a big show of falling back on Rome or At
lanta. Rosecrans was completely fooled by this
movement, and rushed with Thomas' corps into
Chattanooga (where he spent a couple of precious
days in counting his beads, and saying hie pater
noaters with a Catholic archbishop), while he sent
McCook's corps and the greater part of the cavalry
still further south to flank Rome, in case Johnston
should attempt to atop there. Instead of this, as is
now evident, he Bbould have concentrated his forces,
and beaten Johnston before he received reinforce
menta from Virginia. Thus, you see, " old Rosy"
spent a week catching flies, when he ought to have
been whaling Johnston. That wily rebel no sooner
discovered the movement of McCook than he set
abodt to "gobble" him, and threw a large portion of
his forces under Polk between Thomas and McCook,
thus forcing him to retreat. Then occurred one of
the moat terrific stampedes - on record. 'Our brigade
was with McCook, and brought - up the rear, so I.
happen to know all about it. We retreated for
forty. eight hours, and scarcely slopping to eat—sleep
ing was out of the question.
ARMY OF THE POTOIHR.
Gess. Meade in Washington—A 'New Move
ment on Foot—Reports. of Lee, .hc.
[Correspondence of the Herat]
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.—Major General Meade,
accompanied by Gen. Humphreys, Lieut. Col. Ly
man, and Capt. Morse, of Ms stair, arrived here this
afternoon. The visit of Gen. Meade has given rise
to a report that he has been relieved from the com
mand o (the Army of the Potomac, as it was report
ed in military circles several- days ago that the Pre
sident had promised to select a new commander for
that army, if Meade failed to overtake and defeat
Lee. It is understood now, however, that-Gen.
Meade is here to consult with the President in re
gard to a new and aucceserproniising move of the
Army of the Potomac, for'the execution of which
arrangements are already being made. If rapidly
carried out as proposed, this movement will surprise
Gen. Lee, relieve Burnside 'rem all threatened dan
ger, and take Richmond before the rebel army sent
westward can be brought back there. .•
LEE'S ARMY,
FIELD, October 20.—They stated that Lee had in
all, cavalry and infantry, about seventy thousand
men. Lee had his headquarters about a mile from
the fight, at a Mr. Crosones farm.
My informant states that there was another Gen.
Lee with him ; also Wilcox, A. P. Hill, and Ewell.
UNION SYMPATHY IN VIRGINIA.
I have been speaking to some exohanged men who
were taken at. Gettysburg. There were over two
thousand of them marched off together. They expe
rienced the greatest kindness and sympathy from
the people as they went along t particularly.frem the
inhabitants of Martinsburg. The people of }lagers.
town, Williamsport and Winchester were all kind
to them. In Martinsburg the ladies, waved their
handkerchiefs to them; and told them to cheer up.
The shopkeepers ran out with bread and drink, and,
though their guard threatened thom, still they per
sieted. They remained for the night. about a mile
beyond the village, and a deputation waited on the
general to know would he allow them to supply food
to, the prisoners. As soon as he granted the request,
cars, loaded with bread and provisions, came out to
them. Should our troops occupy this town again
they should think of this.
- OUR TIVAEDDMES,
We have several of these charming creatures in
, the army; The third corps • is : more favored in this
way than any other, for it has uo less than three or
four petticoat warriors. The most famous of these
is Annie Etheridge, who always followed the. for
tunes of the third brigade. Het dress has been per
ferated with bullets several times, yet she clings on
to the Jessie, attending the dying and wounded. I
recollect meeting her at the battle of Chancellors
vile, with a bullet hole right through her dress, and
under the hottest fire, and told her to fall bank to the
rear.
"No," said she. "Here are the dead and wound
ed, and this is my place."
She has been presented with a Kearney medal for
her cool bravery, and her devoted attendance on the
wounded. Another follows the Third Michigan, but
know little of her history.
These ladies, in their Bloomer , costume, and their
kegs of refreshing drinks slung before them, have a
kind of cheering effect upon ue, moreover, here,
where petticoats are so scarce.

The colored moldier, from whom the lieutenant ob
tained his gun, on seeing him fail ran away, but not
without receiving a shot from the Southorons, pass
ing through his cap. The other guard fired his
musket at the Southorons, the ball, as afterwards
learned, grazing the cheek of the 110% without ma
terially injuring him. He quickly followed his com
panion, and in their retreat heard two other dis
charges, by which, as afterwards ascertained, the
lieutenant received two other wonnds, one of them
on the back, near the left shoulder.

decide upon the following questions, which, you will
admit, may well be perplexing even to conspirators

" 1. How is the war in the United States going to
terminate 1 2. Would not thb presence of the Frinee

IYEasico, August 22, 1563
•
Ildn. EDITOR : I have read in your paper today
that three French soldiers have been assassinated in
Tlalpan decently, and that you desire` to see the
authorities adopt rigorous measureowith reference
to that locality.
There has been onlyvne military victim; but for
some time various persons, resident in that village,
have perished, cowardly attacked by assassins, who,
on account of the debility of the local authority—
(this village is within sight of the city of Mexico; so
that it is strange, if the French are se wellreceived,
order does not prevail that short distance from the
principal point occupied by the French. Transit.
tor)—evade the pursuit of justice, and find in the
houses of the inhabitants an asylum which ef
fectually conceals them.
For the rest, y our desires have been alreadly an
ticipated, and yesterday I dictated, in accord with
the Government, the necessary rigorous measures
to prevent the repetition of crimes which offend the
public conscience, as well of French officials as of
those Mexicans who have a right to my protection.
The garrison of Tlalpan has been augmented,
and a high official will hereafter discharge the funct
tions of prefect. The ileymitamiento (Coalmen
Council) has been removed. The village of Tia,lpan
will suffer a penalty of $6,000, which will, in part,
be distributed for the benefit of the victims who
have been cowardly assassinated. A certain num,
ber of individuals of bad reputation (1), willbe ar
rested, and will serve, as hostages. If the assassi
nations continue, these hostages shall respond for
them with their heads. -If this is not sufficient, the
village will he destroyed. It is time that, as the
Emperor said when detestable pasisions: raged in
France, the good should be tranquillized,"and also
the bad. The Government and myself are perfectly
in accord in our measures to maintain: order and
assure good citizens the enjoyment of their property
and of their lives, which is the first of all ; and if
we are disposed to forget thff past and to act with
clemency towards those who frankly adhere to the
new order of things, which the .nation itself has
established, we are equally decided to follow with
the extreraest measures of rigor all the enemies of
social order.

that the French are civilizing Mexico.
The people of the country are becoming more hoe

how they can guard a line of more than two hun

A MEETING OF COLORED TENNESSEANS
The Chicago Tribune contains a report of a large
meeting of the colored residents of Nashville, which
was held on the 30th ult., for the purpose of enlist
ing troops for the United States service. It was
called and conducted exclusively by colored people.
A full corps of officers were elected—a president,
vice president, (George Washington, by the way,) a
secretary, and four assistant secretaries. After the
reading of the Scriptures and singing a hymo, a fer
vent, loyal prayer was offered, and then the presi
dent of the meeting arose to say a few words full of
earnestness and vigor:
" Two paths.present themselves for the choice of
us and our race. To continue grOund down in ab
ject slavery, to live, and our children after us to
live, in chains and - contempt ; or to rise up in our
might to assert our manhood and win our freedom
from bondage. NOW is the time to decide. Choose
ye this night whom ye will serve. Shall we look
on and see the North conquered, and have the old
dynasty of rebel rule .placed over us again bty
friends, I have made up my mind to one thing—that'
I'll not stay here to see it." [Applause.]
Jerry Sullivan, another colored man, said :
--
"God is in this war. He will lead tut on to victory.
Folks talk-about the fighting being nearly over ; but
I: believe there is a heap yet to come. Let the co
lored men accept the offer of the President and Ca
binet, take arms, join the army, and then we will
whip the rebels, even if Longetreet and all the other
Streets of the South concentrate at Chattanooga.
[Laughter and applaused Why, don't you remem
ber how afraid they used to be that we would rise?
And you know we would, too, if we could. [Cries
of 'That's so.'] I ran away two years ego. Gov.
Harris said to me, 'Jerry, you must go with the
army to blank shoes and wait on the officers, and
you must start to-morrow Mornitig. , . He said I
might see my wife and family that night. Where
do you suppose I was the next day? . Why, I was
in Kentucky [laughter] ; and the next day I got to
Cincinnati, and from there -I- went straight to Gen.
Ilosecrans , headquarters. And now I sin going to
be corporal! [Shouts of laughter.]
"Come, boys, let's get some guns from Uncle
Sam,and go coon-hunting—shooting these gray
back , coons that go poking about the country
nown-days. [Laughter.] To-morrow morning don't
eat too much breakfast, but as, soon , as you get back
from market, start the first thing for our camp.
Don't ask your wife, for if she is a wife worth hav
ing, she will call you a coward for asking her. "[Ap
plause and *axing -of handkerchiefs by the ladies.]
I've got a wife, and - she says to me the other day,
'Jerry, if you don't go to the war mighty soon I'll go
off and leave you, as some of the Northern gentle
men want me to go home to cook for them.'
, [Laughter.] •
"Come, boys, we never had such a chance before,
for you remember how tar, feathers, and a tree
were promptly provided for every Abolitionist our
old masters could catch ; and if -we don't go into the
army now, we shall be- as black as Jeff. Davis'
heart, Now, can we see the salVation of the Lord?
Tennessee has always been noted for being a light
ing •country ; and now; if we will take hOld, we
shall form one of the brightest armies she ever
produced. Under the leadership of Washington
and Jackson our people were led on to victory in
days of old; and now let - us, the descendants of
Ham, raise again the banner that has been tram
pled in the dust. The ladles are now busy making
us a flag, imp let ua prove ourselves men worthy to

THE OZAP,. TO TRU ARMY OB TIC. DON.,
The subjoined Imperial manifesto Wad ladled at
St. Petersburg on the 3d of October:
To our truly belOved Army of the Don:
The loyalty and derttion of the Army of the Dos
to the Throne of all the Russia!, its continual sea*.
nese to hasten wherever danger threatens our be.
lewd country, its noble, victorious deeds and inn*
inerable exertions in war, and its peaceable and fa.
dilations activity in domestiolife, have always ab
tracted our attention towards it. and gained our do.
cere attachment at the period when we were its
Heiman.
In recognition of so many services rendered by the
Airily of the Don, and as a testimony of our parti
cular satisfaction, we have commanded that, to ef
fect a diminution of the laborious services of the
Cossacks of the Don, and in order to give more el
them opportunity for the improvement of their dr
mettle life, the time of service for all classes shalt
be shortened, and for the future a term of fifteen
years shall be fixed for field service and of seven
years for interior service.
As a further contirmation of our most gracious
satisfaction with the Army of the Don, we further
confirm all rights and privileges which were &cooed
et! 16 it by our exalted predecessors now resting its
God, while, by our imperial word, we guarantee to
it the immutability of its present mode of service
(which has procured historical fame for the Army of
the Don), as well as the integrity of all advan
tages, grants, and territory which it has gained by
its exertions and services, and by the blood of its
members, and which were confirmed to the army by
monawhical rescripts.
While we remain forever well disposed towards
the Army of the Don, we deign to sign this rescript
with our own hand; and we have commanded Matti
shall be confirmed with the seal of the Empire.

Against• the Catholics of Ireland, at one time. his
Lordship was particularly keen, and his denuncia

gunge, and in religion? , has naturally rendered his
name obrionieue to the inhabitants of the olden
islane—perhape the more eo became his grandfattueC
was a native of Limerick.
"To this assault on his country and religion, the
late Daniel O'Connell replied in one of the moat
caustic parliamentary philippics of the day, asserttng
that the grandfather of Lord Lyndhurst was a do

recreant to the creed of hie ancestors, and himself et
"Hiberno-Americano•Englishman." '
Europe will not forget the " semional gm:am/sift .
in which Lord Lyndhurst used to review, at the
elope of every Parliamentary session, in the most
severe and caustic manner, the progress made is
legislation by a Government which, at the best, was
neither collectively norindividually strong. In OM
he finally retired from office. Since that time he has
acted the part of an exalted and impartial critic of
the measures brought forward by liberals and eon
rervatives alike, content to range himself under the
banners of no party as a blind supporter, though he
lent to Lord Derby a stronger support than was
probable from his antecedents in office as the col
league of Canning and Sir Robert Peel.
In spite of increasing years Lord Lyndhurst was,
till within a few years, one of the most effective Of
Parliamentary orators in either House. He was etn
phatically "the old man eloquent" When he spoke
on an important question the House was always
crowded. His style of oratory was captivating in the
extreme, and his voice one of the most clear and must.

the Clearness of his diction and the chaste and fault.

literature were frequent, and always in good taste
and applicable to the subject
Without doubt, the greatest phenomenon among
the aged lawyers and statesman was Lord Lynd
hurst. That noble and learned lord, in his eighty.-
seventh year, came forward to surprise and delight
the assembly which he so long adorned. Nine years
ago it used to be said, when Lord Lyndhurst brought
forward some question of importance, which he fa-
Wanted in a speech of singular clearness and preg

to appear in the same character in another session.
Nevertheless year after year he pursued the same
course, exhibiting gradual tendencies to physical in
firmity, but little or no symptom of decay in his
mental characteristics:

Times. - He remarks on the "flagrant disgrace" in

eocpus act. . Mr. Lincoln in effect declares that in the
hour of their country's need his own people cannot
be trusted, nor one single district of the North be
left to the action of the ordinary law with safety to
the State.% But, says Mr. Spence, there remained
hardly a choice for the faction .in power maw to
throw of all disguise and rule by brute force. The
people of the . North—not the contractors and fana
tics, but the people at large—are tired of war. They
are neither disposed to go themselves nor to send
their brothers and eons. and without these it mine
end. Referring to the shooting of substitutes who
desert, Mi. Spence remarks that this kind of thing
cannot last. No Country can be conquered by as

LORD BROUORAM.'S SPEECH ON A3l-nuoa.
(From the London Star.] •
He rambles over the continent of Europe, villas
its Governments with praise or blame, crosses the
Atlantic on a voyage of political inspection, beton?,
his august approval upon the partnership of France
and Austria to rob Mexico of its independence, rails
and rants against the "din-United States" in the
style of a rhetorical fish-wife, and stops at the boor
ders of Canada to pour a vial of contempt on met
like Goldwin Smith, and proclaim that the true don
trine of-colonisation was written by himself sixty
sears ago in a book that everybody but its -author
has forgotten.
Lord Brougham is becoming a social nuisance,
and, as such, requires to be abated by the society of
which he is the head. •f:.lf he were a far greater maw
than he in—if he had been ten times the public-benr
factor. that he has been—it would be a duty and a
necessity to check, if possible, his insufferable as •
sion for talk and his tyrannical assumption of in
fallibility. He has done a good deal for his country
and for mankind—a good deal for himself and his re
lations—now let him be content. Or if he mime
continue to lecture all the world on its duties--to
patronize all-the crowned heads that hfitie erre
-shown him any politeness and revile all the peoples
that continue faithful to hie abandoned principles—.
let him do it in the House of Lords: There be may
play the scold and scandal-monger, the gossip, or
the courtier, as much as he likes. It is the plane
appointed for "incurables," as he once told ne—the
hospital and asylum of political dotards—and it Is
open six months out of twelve. For mercy's sake,
let him leavens at peace -in the recess. Let hint
keep out of our philanthropic gatherings if he can.
not refrain from talking renegade politics.
We are not about to • examine Lord Broughaufq
view of the American civil war. There m nothing
in it that:has not been exposed every day for two
years past. It is the common cant of every Tory
squire And neribbler=every renegade radical and
false Liberal. It is the foolish falsehood that has
been vended by the Hopes and Roebucks, Rama.
- dens and ',Malays, ever since the war began. *
Alan for the reasoning powers of Henry Brougham{
Where is the logic that used to tear in pieces the
sophisms of the . West India interest, and Beath*

MR. War. Frrzoirnami—Sin : I was aware before
the receipt of v our letter yesterday that you were
still in prison, and I can Immure you that it shall be
no fault of mine if you do not remain so during your
natural life. When 'I promised to intercede with.
the military authorities in your behalf, I believed
your assurance that the suspicions against you were
without foundation but on calling on General
Winder I found that it had been reported to him, by
a gentleman of undoubted loyalty and veracity, that
you have been fOr, years an enemy and vilifier of
outliern institutions, In 1866, you voted for the
Abolitionist, Fremont, for President. Ever since
the 'war you have maintained a sullen silence in re•
gard to its merits. Your son—who, in common with.
other young men, was called to the defence of hie
country—has escaped to the enemy, probably by
youradvice. This is evidence enough to satisfy me
that you are a traitor to your country, and I regret
that it is not sufficient to Justilyme in demanding
you from the military authorities to be tried and
executed for your treason.
Yours, JOHN LETCHEIL
