the offloe and the sacred desk—from the mountain top,
distant yalleye and far-off Islands of the ocean—from
every nook and corner of the clyillzed world—ls pouring
in tho evidence of the astonishing effects of DRAKE’S
PLANTATION BITTERS. Thousand* upon thousands
of letters like the following may be seen at our office:
Rbedsbury.vWib., Bept. 16, 1863.
“* * * * I have been in the army hospitals for
fourteen months—fipeecblasa and nearly dead. At Alton,
111,, they gave me a bottle of Plantation Bitters. * * *
Three bottles restored my speech and cured me. * * * t *

*‘Da. Drake: Your wonderful Plantation Bitters
have been given to some of our little children suffering
from weakness and weak lungs with most happy effect.
One little girl, in particular, with pains in the head, loss
of appetite, and daily wasting consumption, on whom
all medical skill had been exhausted, has been entirely
restored. We commenced with but a teaspoonfol of
Bitters a day. Her appetite -Increased; strength and
health followed. * * * *

Plantation Bitters have saved my life.

They are composed of the celebrated Cltasaya Bark,

in. perfectly pure St. Croix Rum.

Persons of sedentary habits, troubled with weakness,
lassitude, palpitation of the heart, lack of appetite, dis
tress after eating, torpid liver, constipation, &c>, deserve
to suffer if they will not try them.
They are recommended by the highest medical autho
rities, and are warranted to prodace an immediate bene
ficial effect. They are exceedingly agreeable, perfectly
pure, and harmless.

ters in bulk or by the gallon Is a swindler and impostor.

bottles refilled with imitation deleterious stuff, for which

■JTIE GREAT SENSATION NOVEL.
PECULIAR,
By EFES SARGENT, is meeting with an enormous sale,
and no wonder; for, as a specimen of what readers of
judgment think, we quote from the Roxbxtry Journal ,
which says: “The story is intenaely interesting as a
picture of our own times; it Is surpassingly vigorous in
its grasp, and graphic in its detail Of all works of fic
tion, written with a moral purpose,we scarcely know of
one which excels' it in these qualities. As a story. it
holds the reader as by a spell. As an argument, we
can conceive of nothing more cogent than its vivid and
picturesque pages. This is strong praise, hut does not
overstate the facts.” ‘ ,

The Philadelphia American Covrier says of “Alone:”
“We take especial pleasure in commending this ear
nest, chattily-written, and exceedingly judicious story
as one among the brilliant gems that have recently made
their appearance. From its affectionate,' heart-speaking
‘dedication to my Brother and Sister,’to its close, the
attention is riveted with intenee and irresistible power.”
The Boston Transcript says:
“ Though ‘ Nemesis’ le a stout l2mo. of about five hun
dred pages, thcreis not a paragraph that is not readable,
there is not a chapter that does not contain some fine de
scriptive passage, or some happy delineation of charac
ter, or tome well-drawn scene or interesting incident. ”
