IRON' 13 Til E BLO 6b. '
" It Is well kiwiitn to th medical profession that
IRON is the vital Principle or Life Klcment of the
blood. This is derived chiefly from the food we aat;
but if the food is not properly digested, or if, from
any causo whatever, the neoessary quantity of iron
is not taken into the circulation, or becomes reduced
the whole system suffer. The bad blood will irri
tate tho heart, will olog up the lungs, will stupefy
the brain, will obstruct the liver, and will send its
disease producing elements to all parts of the sys
tem, and every one will suffer in whatever organ
may be predisposed to disease.
The great value of
Iron hia n Medicine
Is well known and acknowledged by all medical
men. The difficulty has been to obtain such a re
paration of it as will enter the circulation and asi
milatu at once with tho blood. This point, says Dr.
Hays, Massachusetts State Chemist, has bon at
t,l.. I- ujaui.,. otiltllUailOU Ilia
way before unkoowa. .
i The Peruvian Sjritp.
Is a Protected solution of the Protoxide of Iron
A new Discovery in Medicine that strikes Ibe Root
of Disease by supplying the blood with its vital Prin
ciple or Life Element Iron.
The Peruvian Syrup.
Cures Dyspepsia, Liver Coniflaint Dropsy, Fever
aud Ague, Loss of Energy, Low Synils.

that poor boon. The rebel soldiers had
been placed in graves, however shallow, and
decently covered with earth r stones, und

square pen of rails. Our own bovs had the
hard faUi of being left on tho" field, and
w hen the rebels vouch saled to bury them,
they were culrectvd in rows, or in groups of
two or three, upon the ground, and a few
spadefuls of earth thrown over them. I do
not suppose that ore half of our dead were
buried, even thus slightly, and before spring
the rain tiati exposed the 'extremities ot
these. At one and of one ot these little
mounds lsy a pair of 6kulls, bleaching in
the sun, and at the other, two pair of shoes,

The following summary, complied from
the statutes of several Stntes, of penalties
inflicted upon persons who had taken up
arms on the side of the enemy, or in any
way rendered aid and cotnfort to that ene
my, is veTy interesting nt this time : '
New Hampshire passed an act in 1777, de
claring all persons, resident within the
tilale, who either levied war, -or aided tho
enemy in carrying on the war, against the
United Stidta, to be guilty of. treason, and
forfeiting their good uud (.chattels to the use
of the State.
In Connecticut it was made treason, pun
ishable with death, to aid or comfort the
eneirty.
Massachusetts, in 1777, declared nil per
sons abiding within that State, and delving
protection from its laws, to owe allegiance
to U, and that all such persons guilty' of
levying war, or conspiring to levy war,
against any of tho United States, should
stiller the pains of death. It further en
acted, that any concealment of treason
should forfeit all the goods and chattels of
the offender to the use of the State during
hialile.
In Hhodc Island, death and the entire
conti-cation of property were the peualties
ot adhesion to the royal cause.
Pennsylvania, tally in 1770, enacted that
all enemies resident within tho State, or
those who should aid or assist tho public
enemy, should lie held guilty of hiirh trea
son, ami suffer death. Their estates were,
by tho same act, declared forfeited to the
Commonwealth.
New York passed laws, authorizing her
Governor ''to remove certain disaffected and
dangerous persons" from the limits of the
State : ulso an act to remove "neutral tier-
sons" to tlie enemy's lines, upon their re-
usai to take tlie out h of alleuianeo. Also.
n 1770, an act for the forfeiture and sale of
the estates ot persons w ho had adhered to
the enemies of the United States. Also an
act for the banishment of all lories.
New Jersey, in 1776 passed "un act to
punish traitors und disaffected persons," by
death or imprisonment, according to tho
nature of the offense, and forfeiting their
property to the State.
Maryland passed, in 1777. "an act to ptin-
sh , ccitaiu crimes, and to prevent the
growth of toryism," which enacted that all
erson proved to have adhered to tho enemy.
should be adjudged guilty of treason, and
should suffer death, without benefit of clergy,
aiiti lorreii an ineir estate.
In Delaware, by an act passed in 1778.
the real and personal estate of all aiders nnd
abettors of the enemy, was declared abso-
Uteiy lorleitCil. - -
VliuHiin, in 17T6, de3ned by statute what
should be treason in that State, and de
creed, for all convicted ot levying war
ugainst tho Commonwealth, or of adhering
to its enemies, the pimisment of death with
out tho benefit of clergy, and forfeiture of
lauds and chattels to the Common-
alt h.
In ifiioli Cuiollna, ttie law ot 1777 de
clared ull persons iu the limits of thut State
to owe allegiance to it, und adjudged the
penalties of death and confiscation to all
such persons ns aided the enemy.
Georgia, in 17 715, torlcited aud confisca
ted the estates nf a multitude of persons w ho
hat been guilty ol inciviiism.
South Carolina, tho modern hot-lietl ot
sedition, passed, early in 1770, "An act to
prevent seditiou, und ptiuish insurgents and
disturbers of the public peace," in which
capital punishment was denounced against
all taking up urn), or aiding or allotting
the foreign enemy.' It ulso deelaretl that
all lands aud teneiut'iita, goods and chattels,
of such persons, should be sold w ithin one
month, nod the proceeds deposited 111 Hie
Colony Treasury at Charleston.
Such is the record ol the legislation ot
the "old thirteen," against traitors and do
mestic enemies. It is aconsistaut, though
severe testimony, to the necessities which
every civil war has imposed upon a Govern
ment.

Tho well-known correspondent of the
Boston Journal, who writes under the sig
nature of "burleigh," thus relates the story
of Grant's re-entrance into the United States
army at the outbreak of the rebellion.
Four years tUis very month, Mrs. Grant
lives iu her quiet home in Galena. Her
husband was Mr. Grunt, the leather dealer,
a plain, modest, reliublu man, without much
apparent force, who attracted very little at
tention unyway. The war had commenced.
Tbe Hag had been shot away trom Sumpter,
anil shot out of a rebel canuon at Memphis.
One morning Mr. Grant culled tin Senator
Washburnu, who resides in Gulcoa. He
told Mi. W. that he did not feel right thut
he could not sleep nights; that ho felt that
he wus not doiug his duty. Washtmriio
askch him what was tho matter. Mr.Uruut
replied, "I am doiug nothing for my coun

I was showed to the cow-yard and laid
down under a one mule cart. The hotel

Jeff. Davis is not pop'lar here. She is re

told he was kind to his parents. She ran
away from 'cm many years ago, and has nev

Feelin' a little peckish, I went into a eat

He didn't wear much clothes, and them as
he did wear looked onhealthy. He frown

"No," said I, "I cum here for hash !"
"Pish-shaw 1" he sed sneeringlj-, "I mean

succumb, but as for me, I will never yield

"Hav' suthin to eat," I pleasantly sucucs-

"Tripe and onions!" he sed fnrcely : then
he added, "I eat with you, but I hate you.

The Confederate soldiers, when they, go

Wo wouder whether Jeff. Davis, when ho

It is to be hoped that JefT. Davis' assumpi

Jeff. D.ivis, even if pardoned, can never
again be e'.ected to office. Our people aro
not fond of petticoat govercweti:.
It is saitl that Davis' excuse for wearing
