A HOME CERTIFICATE.
The following certificate is from a well-known citizen of
Harrisburg : .
HARRISBURG, Aug. U'O, 1864
To THE PUBLIC :—lt gives me great pleasure to recom
mend to the public the medicine prepared by DR. J. J,
McBRIDE, which ho calls the "KING 01 PAIN." I was
induced to use it as an external remedy for a bruise, which
it relieved Immediately, and subsequently cured entirely,
Its success induced me to use it internally for Diarrhoea,
with which I was afflicted in a chronic form for nearly
eighteen months, and to such an extent that my kidneys
were seriously deranged. The medicine has cured me,
and certainly that is saying a great deal in its favor, when I
reflect how many other remedies I tried without experi
encing anything but temporary relief. For my part, I
shall always keep a supply of it in ray house, believing as
I do that it is a most invaluable family medicine.
The unexampled sale of thin medicine proves it to be
the most wonderful discovery of the ago in the medical
art.
The undersigned are the sole agents for the State, and
will supply It wholesale and retail.

DYSPEPSIA, DYSPEPSIA, DY'SPE'PSIA:
I, ELIZABETH BRANSON, of Brandywine,
Del., formerly of Old Chester, Del., do certify
that, for one year and a hall I suffered every
thing but death from that awful disease called
Dyspepsia. My whole system was prostrated
with weakness and nervous debility; I could
not dig6st my food; if I ate even a cracker or
the smallest amount of food, it would return
just as I swallowed it; I became so costive in
my bowels that I would not have a passage in,
less than from four and often eight days; un
der this immense suffering, my mind seemed
entirely to give way. I had a dreadful horror
and evil forebodings. I thought everybody
hated me, and I hated everybody; I could not
bear my husband nor my own children,
every
thing 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 Ito
hell, and that there was no heaven for •me,
and was often tempted to commit suicide,
so near was my whole nervous system de
stroyed, and also my mind from that awful
complaint, Dyspepsia, that my friends thought
best to have me placed in Dr. Kirkbride'e
hospital, West Philadelphia; I remained
there nine weeks, and thought I was a little
better, but in a few days my dreadful com
plaint was raging as bad as ever. Hearing of
the wonderful cures performed by Dr. Wis
hart's Great American Dyspepsia Pills .and
his treatment for Dyspepsia, my husband
called on Dr. Wishart and stated my ease to
him. He said he had no doubt he could cure
me. So in three days after I called and placed
myself under the Doctor's treatment, and in
two weeks . I began to digest my food, and felt
that my disease was fast giving way, and I
continued to recover for about three months,
and at the present time I enjoy perfect health
of body and mind, and I most sincerely return
my thanlN to a merciful God and Dr. Wis.
hart, and to his great American Dyspepsia
Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial that saved me
from an Insane Asylum and 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 hu
manity. ELIZABETH BRANSON,

Du. WrstrAwr—l have been a constant sufferer with
Dyspepsia for the last eighteen years, during which time
I cannot say I ever enjoyed 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 re
lief to die. I had at all times an unpleasant feeling in my
head, but latterly my sufferings so much increased that
I became almost - .MBA:Ir business of any kind; my mind
was continually died with gloomy thoughts and fore
bodings, and if I attempted to change their current by
reading, at once a sensation of icy coldness in connection
with a dead weight, as it were, rested upon myl_brain•,
also, a feeling of sickness would occur atthe stomach, and
great pain to my eyes, accompanied with which was the
continual fear of losing my reason. I also experienced
great lassitude, debility and nervousness, which - made it
difficult to walk by day or sleep at night. I became
averse to society, and disposed only to- seclusion, and
having tried the skill of a number of eminent physicians
of various schools, Really came to the conclusion that, for
this disease at my present&ge (45 years) there was no cure
inexistence. But, through the interference. of Divine
Providence, to whom I devoutly offer my thanks, I at last
found a sovereign remedy in your Dyspepsia Pills and
Tar Cordial, which seem to have effectually removed al
most the last trace of my long list of ailments and bad
feelings, and in their place health; nleasure and content
ment are my everyday companions,

DR. WISHART—Sin—It is with mush pleasure that I
am now able to inform you that, by the use of your great
American Dyspepsia Pills, I have been entirely cured of
that most distressing complaint, Dyspepsia. I bad been
grieviously afflicted for the last twenty-eight years, and
for ten years of that time have not been free from its
path one week at a time. I have had it in its worst form
and have dragged on a most miserable exiateince—in pain
day and night. Every kind of food that I ate filled me
with wind and pain, it mattered. not how light, or how
small the quantity; A continued belching was sure to
follow. / no appetite for any kinds of meats what
ever and my distrers was so great for several Months be
fore I heard of your Pills, that I frequently wished for
death. Iliad 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 boa, I am a well man, and
can eat anything I wish, and enjoy a hearty meal three
'times a day without inconvenience Dona anything I eat
or drink.. If you think,proper, yon are atliberty to make
this publiC, and refer to me. Twill cheerfully give all de
sirable information to any one who may call on me

My tongue was covered with a white coating of micas

made upon Mr. John Babcock, of 1028 Olive street, Phila

to the Doctor's Mace, and placed myself under b treat

last effort I weutd make. It hanbeen six weeks since I
commenced the use of his medicine, and I am now a well
man, free from all pain and distress, and can eat three
hearty meals a day with comfort, and feel perfectly well.

I will tell them of the great cure I have received from
your invaluable medicine. SARLIEL D. HAVEN.

CLOAKS,
Circulars,
I have been credibly informed that Gen.
Slough, the Commander-in-Chief of this De
partment, has expressed a determination to
gather up all the secession sympathizers to
be found around here, and to place them on
the passing trains—distributing them on the
cars in such a way that if the cowardly hounds
secreted along the road will persist in firing
on the trains, they will most likely hit some
of their own kith and kin! Eight, is it not ?
The guerrillas loitering around here belong
to Mosby's band, and are cowardly as well as
cautious, in the extreme. The other day,
while Captain Harry Miles, of company A,
was strolling through the woods close by his
post, pratising with hisi.revolver, firing at a
gray squirrel for a target, he spied a Johnny
in the act of bringing his gun to an aiming
position. Captain M. immediately saw the
folly of attempting to secure the reb with
his pistol; and he wisely slipped back to the
post, throwing out a party of skirmishers;
but by the time they reached the spot indi
cated in the woods, they saw a number of
"gorills" retreating in fine style, and they
gave the thieves a parting salute, but without
effect, for they were trufortitnately out of
range of the rifles of Captain M.'s men.
In conversation with an intelligent Siviss,
(belonging to the 16th N. T. cavalry,) at Col.
Awl's headquarters, the other day, I was in
formed that Mosby's cut-throats greatly fear
the Union cavalry; and that under no con
sideration will they stand a hand-to-hand
engagement, if there is any possible chance
to escape. One of the party belonging to
our Swiss friend's company, a day or two pre
vious was shot in the high, and it was thought
necessary to place him on the train, and send
him to the hospital at Alexandria. The Swiss
Soldat swore vengeance on the first guerrilla
he chanced to capture!
Since the recent raid on the Baltimore and
Ohio . Railroad, by a few hundred of Mosby's
outlaws, we. have been advised from Head
quarters to look out for them, as they might
attempt to fall back towards Staunton, in 'this
direction, for the purpose of reinforcing
Mosby in his vain attempts to injure Sheridan,
and I am proud to say that we are ready and
willing to meet the grey-backs, if they deem it
a prudent job to come amongst us in their re
treat towards the Shenandoah Valley.
At day-break this morning, we heard the
booming of cannon, in a direction due west
from our post. AtB o'clock, A. at., the can
nonading was terrific, and reminded some of
our men of the' dreadful artillery reports on
the memorable battle field of Gettysburg!
The reports are scarcely one seeod apart,,and
sounded like the discharge,of a rAtiof artil
lery instead of a single battery at a time. By
10 o'clock the sound reached us from a posi
tion south of west, and our men eagerly grasp
ed at the idea that Sheridan was chasing the
foe. I trust to God it is so ! At 12 at.. the
sound is still further south, and the reports of
cannon less frequent. No doubt your read
ers will hear of this engagement long before
this letter reaches you. Nevertheless, it may
not be out of place to mention. the fact of
having " heard of it,"mand that many of the
lads in the 201st wished that we were " over
to help Phil Sheridan along!" And they
meant it too; for I could not help observing
three or four men,in one group whose eyes lit
up, and whose countenances assumed the pe
culiar expression which says fight, at every
discharge of the artillery, dealing out death
in the far off valley of the Shenandoah !

[Since writing the above, a Sergeant ftom
one of the picket stations came to our post
with the information that two rebel cavalry
men, attired in the unmistakable grey of
Johineydom, made their appearance opposite
his station, and one of them beckoned to him
with his hand .to come into the woods. The
Sergeant called to his men to come out im
mediately, and give them chase; and motion

Wolf, Tyler and Houser, (joined by Lieuteils
ant McCurdy and Corporal Witherow) struck
across an open space into the woods, hunting
them for an hour, frequently scenting them by
the tracks of their horses, but without success.
All efforts to capture them were unavailing,
as search was made for the game, at nearly all
the posts above us, during the entire after
noon. In our perambulations after these two
rebs, we picked up a large conical shell—a
regular 20 pounder—the charge still in it, and
the fuse burnt off closely. After examining
it minutely, and wondering for what purpose
it was thrown here, into the depths of the
forest, we dropt it "like a hot potato," and
pursued oar way homeward.]
Some philanthropic individual at Harristurg
has taken the liberty to address a letter to one
pf the officers of this regiment, stating that
our esteemed and worthy chaplain, Rev. G.
G .Rakestraw, is derelict in his duty towards
the men in our regiment. Now, permit me to
say, in all candor, that such is not the case.
Rev. Rakestraw's opportunities for holding
divine service, since the regiment left
Camp Couch, ave been very few. Notwith.:
standing he preaches the gospel, and visits
the sick in the hospital as often as circum
stances will permit—tends to our mail matter ,
as well as the facilities for forwarding matter
are extended to him—has a kind word for
every one he meets—and what more can the
man do? He esteemed by every correct
thinking man in this regiment, the complaints
of our anonymous christian grumbler to the

PICKET POST STEAK GAINESVILLE STATION, VA.,
October 18, 1864. •
Enrrom TELEGRAPH:—The piece of rascality
of which the guerrillas were guilty at White
Plains Station, about 10 miles above Gaines
ville, (an account of which I gave in a for
mer letter,) turns out to be more serious than
was at first reported. Two first-class engines,
on being upset down considerable of an em
bankment, were badly damaged, and remain
in statu quo ever since. Five men were killed,
three outright, and two died afterward from
injuries received. Louis Witmer, an engi
neer well known to to the employees on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, had his thigh broken,
and received several other injuries by falling
under the boiler of an engine, and while in
this terrible dilemma received a shot through
his wrist from a pistol in the hands of one of
" Old Virginia's ' chivalric " gorilla" sons !
One of the firemen, two train hands, and a
Mr. Devereaux (the Assistant Superintendent
of the road, I think,) were also murdered
Another Harrisburger, Mcitinley, escaped,
with trifling injuries, I learn. Four of the
engines running over the road (the Grape
Shot, Governor Nye, Gen. Sickels and George
A. Parker) are draped in mourning since the
sad affair.

contrary, notwithstanding! The blessed Sa
viour of mankind—the holiest • being that
ever trod on earth, was assailed on more than
one occasion, and crucified at last—is it
strange, therefore, that a pharisee of the pre
sent day should find fault with an unassum
ing, patriotic, kind-hearted minister of the
gospel, as we know our esteemed friend Rev.
Rakestraw to be ? A. H. 33.

The Fire at Eastport.
Ponmerro, Oct. 25.
Capt. Field, of the steamer New England,
gives additional particulars of the fire at East
port, Me: 'The estimated damage is $400,000.
The wharves on Water street,where the burned
buildings stood, are much injured.
The alarm of fire was first raised at 11
o'clock, on Saturday night, by,the burning of
a smoke house at North End. Shortly after
11 o'clock, on Sunday morning, another fire
broke out in a saloon, on Union wharf, which
terminated in a general conflagration. A
stront , Northeast wind prevailed, and the tide
being low, there was a scarcity of water, while
there were only two available engines in town.
The property was entirely burned, and there
was but slight insurance upon. it. On some
of the buildings there was no insurance at all.
M'Geek, clothing dealer, is a sufferer to
the amount of $13,000, on which there is no
insurance. The loss of E. E. Spedd, 'druggist,
is equally heavy; and not insured. The East
port Sentinel office was burned. The tele
graph office depot, which was destroyed, is
now established over Bradish's bakery. The
Frontier Bank, which was also destroyed, has
been removed to the custom house. The fe
males signally distinguished themselves in
saving goods and even working at the engines.
The St. Albans Raiders,
ST. JoriNs, C. E., Oct. 25
Nothing of special importance has taken
place in regard to the St. Albans raiders, who
are understood to have engaged as counsel
the Hon. J. J. Abbott, and Messrs. Carr and
La Flanne, of Montreal, and the Hon. J. H.
Cameron, of Toronto. The examination is
conducted with closed doors, only the coun
sel and reporters being admitted.
The notorious George N. Sanders is here,
managing the cause of the robbers. He says
they belong to the first families of Kentucky,
and formerly were attached to John Morgan's
faces. This raid, he asserts, is only the first
of a series of plundering expeditions, soon to
take place on the frontier of the State:
Had he known before of the affair, he would
have prevented it, as it was conducted on
too small a scale. J. Johnson, Queen's coun
sel, of Montreal, is here as counsel for the
Canadian authorities.
Fatal Collision on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad.
WHEELING, Oct. 24. •
A stock train going
..East collided with a
passenger train coming West from Baltimore,
about 1 o'clock this morning, four miles east
of Mannington, on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. The engineer, fireman, and one
soldier were instantly killed, and twelve to
fifteen men were severely wounded.. The
train was a total wreck.
Front Shenandoah Valley.
Marines FRISBY, Oct. 25.
Our late fight in this valley was one of the
severest of the war. In some of the regi
ments the fatality was four outof every seven
officers. This is , an unusual occurrence.
Our army is still at Cedar River. Prisoners
are still being brought in. The impression is
that we shall shortly make an advance move
mea.
