DYSPEPSIA, DYSPEPSIA, DYSPEPSIA.
Er.rv.Aarrn BRANSON, of Brandywine,
Del., formerly of Old Chester, Del., do certify
that, for one year and a half I suffered every
thing but death from that awful diseas6 called
Dyspepsia. Sy whole system was prostrated
with weakness and nervous debility; I could
not digest 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 bowebsi that I would not have a passage in
less than from four and often eight days; un
der this immense suffeiing, my mind seemed
entirely to give way. T had a dieadful 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 to
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's
hospital, West - Philadelphia. ' I remained
there nine weeks, and thoughtl 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 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 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 tune I enjoy perfect health
of body and mind, and I most sincerely return
my thanks to a merciful God and Dr. Wis
hart, and to his great American Dyspepsia
Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial that saved me
from =lnsane 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,

DYSPEPSIA I DYSPEPSIA I
Da. Wieser—l have been a Constant sufferer witt
Dyspepsia forthe last eiohteen 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 unfit for business of any kind; my mind
was continually Ailed 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 my brain;
also, a feeling of sickness would occur at the 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, finally came to the conclusion that, for
this disease at any present age(4s years) there wen cure
in existence. 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
[Mingo, and ia their place health, pleasure and content
ment are my everyday companions.

Philadelphia, January 22d, 1868.
Da WISILLET—Sin—It is with much pleasure. that I
am now able to inform you that, by the use of your great
AmericanAllyspepsia Phis, I have been entirely cured of
that mdst distressing complaint, Dyspepaia. I had been
grieviously afflicted for the Jest twenty-eight years, and
for ten years of that time have not been free,from its
path one *oak at a time. I have had it in its worst form
and have dragged on a most miserable existence-in pain
day and night. Every kind of food that I ate filled me
with wind and pain, it mattered not how light, or hoar
small the quantity A continued belching was sure to
follow I had no appetite for any kinds of meats what
ever and my distrers was so great for several months be
fore I beard of your Pills, that I frequently wished for
death. I had taken everything that Z had heard of for
Dyspeppla r wlthout 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 mil man, and
can eat anything I malt, and enjoy a hearty meal three
times a day, without inconvenience from anything I eat
or drink. If you think proper, you are at tiberty to make
thin public and refer to me. I will cheerfully give all de
sirable information to any one who may call on me

THE PHESIDENT 5 S MESSAGE.
Part of Early's Forces Set to Richmond.
Arrival of Prisoners.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.
•
Up to this evening probably not more than
one-fifth of the members of Congress have
arrived here. These include some from the
most inland States. There is, however, no
doubt that there will be a quorum present in
both Houses on Monday, the larger number
being on their way to Washington.
The message of the President was fully con
sidered in extra Cabinet council to-day. The
usual caution is preserved to prevent a pre
mature exposure of its contents. So far,
only the reports of the Secretary of the navy
and the Postmaster General have been printed.
• From reports which have reached this city
there seems to be no doubt that some of
Early's forces have been sent to Richmond
Within the past week, by way of Madison
Court House.
A gentleman who arrived from Annapolis
last night, says , that 5000. exchanged prisoners
have :already reached that plate from Ander
sonville, and the pay masters are buslly set
tling their arrangements. More arrivals are
daily expected.
Those who recently came up in the Consti
tution and Comae, are comparatively in good
health at present. Soldiers who have been
severely maimed " have an advantage in re
spect to pensions, ()ger sailors who similarly
suffer, and therefore one of the measures of
the approaching session of Congress will
provide a remedy for this manifest injustice
or oversight in legislation.
The new arrangements perfecting the con
nections and rendering the entire mail service
North and West more certain than heretofore,
and for, two trains a day between Washington
and New York in ten.hours, will go into effect

IrCONNELLECEMBG, PA., Dec. 3
A fight occurred at Timber Ridge, near this
place, Eesterday, between a portion of com
pany F, 201st regiment of Pennsylvania
Mounted infantry, and some delinquent con
scripts of this county. It having been ascer
tained that a number of them would be Son-,
gregated at a shooting match, measures were
taken to secure the party. The soldiers ad
vanced to the spot, and, as Provost Marshal
Houpt went forward to hold a parley, the
conscripts cried out, "It is the Provost Mar
shal," and immediately a number of shots
were fired at him, none of which took effect.
The soldiers then opened fire, and a gener
al fight ensued, that lasted for about an hour.
The deserters were finally driven over two
hills, skirmishing being kept up the whole
way. Owing to the fact that the fighting was
carried on principally in tke woods, the casu
alties were slight. The conscripts lost one
man killed and two wounded. None of our
men were injured. One of th'e wounded men
fell into our hands. The remainder of the
party, being familiar with the country, fled
to the mountains.
The forces were under the command of
Captain Maloney, an efficient officer, and
more affairs of this kind may be speedily
looked for, as itis determined to bring these
outlaws and incendiaries to justice.

GOOD NEWS FROM SHERMAN
Capture of Millen, Georgia.
ADVANCE ON SAVANNAH.
The Government has received information
that General Sherman: .had captured Millen,
on the Georgia Central Railroad, on the 29th
ultimo. His army was concentrated and it is
thought had moved to Savannah:before this.
- This news has created an excellent feeling
here to-day. Millen ',ls about. sixty miles
southeast from Augusta:'-
LATER FROM SHERMAN.
He is Triumphantly fVlarching
On the 26th his Army was Forty-fin Miles
south of Augusta.
ittichmond papers, of the 29th of Novem
ber;,• (Tuesday last) ,have been received in this
city. They contain a dispatch from Augusta,
dated the 26th, annouicing that . on that day
Sherman's army was forty-tlve miles south' of
Augusta, Ga., "and so far has been baffled."
The same papers repeat the rumor that
Sherman was repulsed in attempting to cross
the Oconee river.
The Rebels claim that they still hold Macon.
By Sherman's being "baffled," we suppose
the Rebel papers mean that they have eluded
him in battle and frustrated him in some way,
because he appears to be going by Augusta.
If any one will look at the map, he will
perceive that if the rebel dispatch quoted
above is true, that Sherman was, directly.
south of Augusta on the 26th, he must have
been at that time near Waynesboro, Georgia,
in possession of the last line of railroad be
tween Augusta and Savannah, and the cutting
of that road destroys the last means of com
munication between the two cities, except by
way of the river, which will soon be , stopped.
This kind of "baffling" Sherman can stand if
the rebels can. •
The "repulse" at the Oconee river could
not have amounted to much, or we should
have had it paraded in glowing colors ere
this, and not announced as a mere "rumor."
Besides, the rebels acknowledge that it did
not impede his progress.
That the rebels hold Macon there can be
no doubt. We presume they did not expect
that Sherman should stop his expedition and
hold it.for them. After he got through with
it there was nothing left worth holding.
If Sherman was forty-five miles directly
south of Augusta on the 26th ult., he was with
in one hundred and thirty miles of Savannah.
He has probably marched at least fifteen miles
per day during the ArktlikhElAPPt-iWkii ::1 9 5 6 !r
kmg him now seventy -live miles nearer,
the
the coast than , he was then, or only forty-five
miles from Savannah, in a rich country, with
no enemy before him or on his flanks that
amounts to a flea bite ! This is progress in
deed.
LATEST FROM SHERMAN
He is Reported Within 40 Miles
of Savannah.
Rebels Reported to Have Checked His. Progress,
The steamer Baltic arrived at Annapolis to
day, with 520 paroled prisoners, from Savan
nah. The latest news from Sherman is con
tained in the Savannah papers of the 30th. Of
November. They state that he was only 40
miles from the city, but that hiS progress had
been checked.
SHERMAN!
THE VERY LATEST
Jubilant Times in Washington
LATER NEWS FROM REBEL SOURCES
THE FIGHT AT MACON, GA
The .Herak/ has received a special dispatch
from Washington, which says that Govern
ment officials are unusually, jubilant over-the
news from Sherman.
The Government possesses means indepen
dent of the Richmond papers and more re
liable means of obtaining intelligence of Sher
man's progress. It is cofidently believed
that Sherman has not only baffled the rebel
generals, but has so far advanced beyond se
rious interruption as to leave no doubt of his
triumph and success.
Savannah and other Georgia papers of the
27th inst., and Richmond papers of Dec. Ist
have been received, from which the following
summary is digested : It appears that an at
tack was made in East Macon on Sunday,
Nov. 20th, the rebels losing a battery which
.hey subsequently recovered with small loss
on both sides.
The attack was expected to be renewed on
the 27th, but it was not, and the rebels came
to the conclusion that the movement on Mon
day was a feint. It was probably made by-s
small force of Slocum's corps, as the Augusta
Constitutionalist of the 24th ult. says:
Slocum entire corps went down the west
side of the Oconee previous to the night of
the 22d, indicating an intention to pass by
Augusta between that place and Macon, and
make for the sea • between Savannah and
Brrmswiek.
Governor Brown was in Macon, where he
had removed all the valuables from
