Levi Ct, Beck, Pastor of the Baptist Church, Pemberton, N. J., forruorly of the North . Baptist Church, Philadelphia. I have known Booflaud's German Bitters favorably for a number of years. I have used them in my own familyi and have been so pleased with their effects that I was in duced to recommend them to many others, and know that they have operated in a strikingly benoncial manner. I take great pleasure in thus publicly proclaiming • this fact, and calling the attention of thaw afflicted with the diseases for which they are recommended to these Bit- tens, knowing from experience that my recommendation will be sustained. I do this more cheerfully as Hoof- Wad's Bitters is intended to benefit the afflicted, and is "not a rum drink.) , Yours truly. From Rev. J. Newton Brown, D. D. Editor of the En cyclopedia of Religious Knowledge and Christian Chroni cle , Philtilielphia. Although not disposed Co favor or recommend Patent Idehicines in general, through distrust of their ingredients and etfeins, I yet know of no sufficient reasons why a man may not, testily to the benefits he believes himself to have received from any simple preparation, in the hope that he may thus contribute to the benefit of others. I do this the more readily in regard to Boatload's Gor man Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, or this city because I was prejudiced against them for many years, under the impression that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture. lam indebted to my friend, Robert Shoema ker, Eso., - for the removal of this prejudice by proper teats, and for encouragement to try them when suffering from great and long continued debility. The use of three bottles of these Bitters at the beginning of the present year, was followed by evident relief and restora tion to a degree of bodily and mental vigor which I bad not for six months before, and had almost despaired of regaining. 1 therefore thank God and my friend for di recting me to the use of them.._., J. NEWTON BROWN, PhHada. From Rev. Warren Randolph, Pastor of Baptist Church, Germantown, Penn. Dr. C. R. Jackson :—Dear Sir:—Personal experience enables me to say that I regard the German Bitters, pre pared by you, as a most excellent medicine. In cases of severe cold and general debility I nave been greatly bete fitted by the use of the Bitters. and doubt not they will produce similar eteote on others.

Some years since being much• of dieted with Dyspepsia, I used them with very tu:lends] results. I have often recommended them to persons CD feebled by that tormenting disease, and have beard from them the most flattering testimonials as to their groat Irene. In cases of general debility, I bolicve it to be a tonic that cannot be surpassed. J. M. LYONS. From the Rev Thomas Winter, Pastor of Roxborough Baptist Church.

"Fort Gaines has gone the way of Hatteras, Roanoke Island, Pulaski and Hilton Head.

In that case eternal infamy awaits him. 4 .‘U these forts were not built to be taken, they have not thus far rendered any other use.
