Beloxe u'ill .be found a i-ertihcatc from one of the
most respectable citizens <f Wilkins township tn
regard to Dr. K*y*cr'« Lindsey's Bh-<> t~>carchtr.
The Doctor's certificates are within reach, and
no one need be deceived i/t regard to his prepara
tions:
Dr. Geo. H. Kbtseb:—l became afilioted with
Piles about twenty years ago. and every year
they were growing worse, eo a a to trouble me ve
ry maoh, fo much so at times astoualit me for
work. Some imes I was so bad, that I could not
do anything on account of them, they oame out
on me as large os a hiokory nut. I had tried a
great deal of medicine for thorn. I used to buy
and take what ever I could hear of or rend of, in
circulars and pamphle s that fell in my way, but
I oould not get ourod, sometimes they would do
me some good for|a little while, but afterwards
they would return again os bad as ever. I also
applied to two Dootors, who visited me at my
house and gave me some medicine but it would
not do, I could not get well. Over a year ago, I
got an advertisement of your Lindsey's Blood-
Searcher, made by yourself—when you sold it to
me von told me one bottle would notonro me.
and that my whole system would have to be re
newed by the medicine before I got well. I
bought one bottle and took it home with me and
used it according to your directions. I then call
ed to see you again, when you said I could net
expect much benefit from one bottle, I bought
it on, one bottle at a time, until I had used five
bottles. After this quantity had been used, I
was entirely well of the piles/wlich had tortored
me for’ twonty: years In other respects my
health is improved, and I am as well as could
be expected for one of my age, being sixty yoars
past. I have boon well now fur six months, and
the*e is co appearance of a return of the disease.
I can do any kind of fanning work now without
the piles coming down and hurting me. I cao
pitch hay, chop wouj, lift, or de any kind of work
which before used to hurt mo. Wh6n 1 found
out your blood Searcher I kept on taking it un
til I 'got entirely weii. 1 consider it my duty to
make my case known a© chantry Ur the ben
efit ofo:h6ra who may 1>? suffering as 1 was, and
do not know the value of your medicine. You

Un the f.ret day of January of the pres
ent year, ihe Federal army under General
Koac-vrar.s. was burying its dead which
RRSTvT H. LOX
bad fallen the day previous in tho tre
mendoua battle ot Murfreesboro, or, as
it is generally termed, Stone Hiver. That
same a.ght Bragg, under cover of dark
need, withdrew bis disheartened forces,
and tOnk up a new line of occupation upon
tho South aide .of Duck Rivr-r.
Thus, at tho opening ot lF'.-L tb.fi rebels
held, ! west of ike Mississippi, all tbe
country South of the Arkansas river, and
ou iho east ol tho Father of Waters, near
ly, or ali, South ot a line which com*
menced ou Ue Iliver at Vicksburg, ran
up the V 1.200 River to Yazoo City, then
ran off irregularly to the Northeast till it
leached Bragg in Tennesaee, on Duck
River. From this point it continued east
ward, including East Tennessee, until it
reached its terminus in tin East some
where net far from Fredericksburg, on
tbe Potomac River. The Slates held by
the rebels were about one-half of Ar
kansas, nearly all ot Louisiana, Texas,
and Mississippi, ail of Alabama, Georgia,
Florida, North and South Carolina, with
trilling exceptions ; and the West part of
TenuePS6e and Virginia. Tho Federal
torces two hoßtile Southern States—
Missouri and ; held half of
Arkansas, half of Tennessee, one third
of Virginia, and had effected lodgments
on the coasts of all the others.
How much have we gained during the
present year? Nothing in Virginia; the
remaining half of Tennessee ; of Missis
sippi about one-third, or, practically, the
country lying west of the railroad that
runs from Memphis to Mobile ; and the
navigation of the Mississippi. In Arkan
sas, the oiffff difference between the be
ginning fffl9*shd of the year is that then
the rebels occupied the Arkansas river,
which is now occapied by us.
From this it will be Been that the gain
in territory on tho part of the Federal
Government is very small. One half of
Tennessee, and the country immtdiately
adjacent to the Mississippi river from
Vickßbcrg to Port Hndson; on the coast,
but little—a landing in front ot Charles
ton, and & foothold at the month of the
Hie Grande In Texas. We practically
command the State of Arkansas; bat its
capture to us iB as barren as was its pos
session to the rebels; therefore, in sum
ming up, we do not regard its subjugation
aa a material benefit to the national Gov
ernment.
The loss of territory to the rebels, then,
has been most insignificant—one useless
State (Arkansas,) half ot another, and
small portions of Texas, Louisiana, and
Misnissippi. In consequence, if we esti
mate the net profit to the Federal eause
by the amount of territory that we have
conquered during the paßt year, it will be
found to be contemptibly small—almost
an unappreciablequantity; one which con
sidered simply as so much country cap
tured, would not compensate for one
tenth of the blood and money which have
hc-en ' xpended.
As our territorial gains have been so
small, it will be necessary,_ in order to
know that we are really making progress,
to find other sources of affirmative assur
ance.
Stragetically, we have made greater
progress than in territory. At the begin
ning of tbe year the rebels beld \ icksbnrg
and Fort Hudson, through which they
were able to avail themselves of the enor
mous productions of Texas and Western
Louisiana. At Duck River they guarded
Chattanooga, the door which opened into
the very heart of the Confederacy, and
also secured to themselves the possession
of Eaßt Tennewee, the granary of the
(For tlie Post.!
“IN .nEMORIAM.”
L. H. B.
A Kcvlow
Confederacy. From Texas they obtained
immense supplies of cattle, and from East
Tennessee, hogs, grain and saltpetre with
out limit.
Id capturing Vickabarg and Port Had
boh, we cut them off from the live stock
of Texas, and iu getting East TsntiefiseS,’
we deprived them of an inexhaustible
source of cereals and & vital constituent
in the manufacture of gunpowder. Iu
these two positions they have sustained an
irreparable loss. The plenty which reign
ed in the South during the years preceding
this has departed, ar»d in its place comes
the grim monarch Famine. This is no
mere rhetorical imagery, but an actual
fact, as every paper which we see from
the South, and every deserter and every
refugee, will substantiate.
From this it will be seen that while we
have gained littD ir. territory, we have
been more fortunate in obtaining positions
whose possessions to the Bouth is of vital
importance. Simplified, the gamß of the
campaign of ISCd are the capture and
permanent possession of two of the rebels
main sources of eupply—their cattle-vard,
granary and laboratory, Texas and East
Tennessee.
In other respect*, we have inflicted
slight damage upon the Confederacy,
without, having ourselves ecqnired a cor
responding gain. The siege of Charleston
has, as vet, done nothing more than close
that port against vessels tunning the
: blockade; but tor every dollar that we
have cost the South at this point, we have
expended a thousand. Whether this pro
cess will pay is a question about which
there may be an honest difference of opin
ion. At Wilmington, we have, by a large
and expensive addition to our squadron,
succeeded in stopping much of the con
traband trade, while the same is the case
at Brownsville, in Texas.
The victories at Vicksburg and Chatta
nooga, especially the latter, give us other
advantages, which, however, are rather
prospective than present. The next rebel
line of defence, lowing to the situation
of streams and railroads in the 'South,
mast be formed with its left on Mobile,
its right covering Richmond, and its cen
tre fronting GraLt, at Atlanta. It ia only
by thus reforming their lines that they
will be able to preserve communication
between the winga—a condition absolutely
essential to the strength and integrity of
this cordon of defeat. Small bodies may
for awhile dispute the possession of «nch
points as Jackson, Meridian, and Fulton,
while it is certain that guerrillas will in-„
test the whole country north of the new
rebel line; but all such operations are
irregular and valueless beyond the tern
porary annoyance they may cause an ad
vancing enemy, ns they do not at all af
feet the vital issues which must be me: and
settled at Mobile, Atlanta and Richmond.
This new line upon which the rebel
armies are thus forced is their last, and,
by far, the meat indefensible one which
they have at any time occupied. Its air
line length is much shorter than any of
the others, bu' its actual length, owing to
the c-f the railroads which con
nect it, is much greater. The condition
of preserving their communication from
wing to wing will be greatly enhanced in
difficulty, from the fact that the Confed
eracy lacks for rolling clock and means of
repairing its railroads. The result will
be that communication at first will be ex
A a little

cars ana rrUcitß, impo&Mbie.
But while the rebeU will lc3e many con
ditions cf great value, in being forced
upon their sole remaining line ot defence,
they will gam one immense advantage.
Every foot that they yield enables them to
concentrate npr-n the shorter inner line of
defence, while it correspondingly weakens
ua by lengthening our communication as
we advance. Our armies are now bo far
from their basis of anpply that a very
slight interruption would be fatal; heuce
it is necessary to guard absolutely against
any such contingency by leaving a email
army at every point as we leave it. This
weakens enormously our capacities for of
fence, and is one of the main reasons why
the North is obliged to call for men in
eessantly, in order to preserve its advances,
and at the same time render its move
ments effective.
The battles of the present war have, in
magnitude, exceeded those ot any previous
campaign. Among those who stand out
in bold relief as firßt class contests, are:
Fredericksburg, Chancellorsvilie, Gettys
burg, Vicksburg, Chickamauga, and
Chattanooga. la addition to these, we
have & myriad ot smaller affairs, whose
title is legion, and whose name can
scarcely be remembered save by one with
an encyclopffldian memory. Among them
may be mentioned: Arkansas Post, Prai
rie Prove, Jackson, Thompson's Hills,
Port Hudson, Sabine Pass, Morris Isl
and, Milliken’s [Bend, Little Rock, He
lena, Knoxville, and tbe thousand skir
mishes and- contests that have occurred
between Washington and Richmond.
Of all these battles, and lesser affairs
tha 1 have occurred, we can regard but
three aa decisive: that at Champion
Hills, before Vicksburg; Gettysburg,
and the last battle of Chattanooga, Even
this scant number may be rednoed one*
third, for the battle of Gettysburg, al
though grand in its proportion, was not
decisive in scarcely any sense of the word.
It is of the same character as Antietam,
and fought for precisely the same pur
poses, via,: to oheck the rebels in a
movement which had no particular strat
egic importance, and which amounted to
simply a foraging party on a larger than
com mm on scale. In neither case was the
enemy more than checked—in both cases
he drew off his army without- demoralisa
tion, aud retired at his leisure, and in
good order, and unmolested.
Chickamauga was a greater contest
than Chattanooga, but was not decisive;
it effected no important results, and left
the respective armies not materially dif
ferent from what they were before the
engagement.
f Champion Hills was decisive, for it de
cided the fate of Vicksburg, and gave qs
material advantage in the catting off of
Texas from the Confederacy, Chatta
nooga was also decisive, for it gave us
East Tennessee, and has thrown the
rebels back upon tbeii last Ime of defence.
So far as the remaining tetndreJ battles
and skirmishes are concjfhed, seventy
five of them need never h*7e been fought;
and in every one of such cases, the blood
shed, at tbe time and material used, have
been a useless and wanton expenditure.
It is sad, bat nevertheless a truthful re*
flection, that three-fourths of those gal
lant men who have given up their lives
have done so, not for their country, but
through the criminal iocompetency of offi
cial management. Notwithstanding that
to-day Virginia is one vast graveyard,
, and that rivers of blood have deluged her
soil, neither the North nor South has
gained since the war commenced a ringle
advantage of importance. Both armies,
at the close of tbe campaign of 1863,
stand very nearly where they did at the
beginning in 18G1. A beautiful country
redaced to desolation; a soil clogged
with graves, and fall to repletion
with blood ; and thousands of be
reaved and mourning firesides in the
North and South, are the only results ob
(A’.ned by these years of sanguinary and
desperate conflict. If the responsibilities
ESTABLISHED 1842.
for all this useless waste of blood attached
itself more lo one party than the other,
it is to the Federal authorities. The reb
els, in the main, have stood upon the de- 2
tensive; when battles have been ioaght v
they have generally been projected by ns,
8 5r tbeir failure is attributable to our in»
efficiency. When we march uponJlich
mond, the rebels, as belligerents, have a
perfect right to oppose pur progress, and
time that each a movement fails the
OBes who are Teeponsible for the failure
and the life wasted are those who directed
the operation.
The necrology of the campaign is ear*
priiingly small in general officers, hot
voluminous with relation to. lesser officers
a: d the rank and file,. All'Onr great bat
tles have been desperately contested, and
bloody beyond comparison with those of
other years and other nations. Probably
not less than from one -hundred to one
hundred and fifty thousand men have,
daring the campaign just ended, been
slain outright, or died from wounds or
disease—a most fearful aggregate of ha*
man life to be sacrificed in one year, and
is one whose proportions wilt appal the
stoutest heart. Probably, there has never,
iq modern times, been a war in which men
were need np as rapidly as in this. Bat
litiieoypr two years have elapsed since its
beginning, and yet nearly twelve handred
thousand men have already been sent into
the field by the North. Of these there
remain perhaps oae-half, possibly two
thirds alive—the remainder are on the
thousand battle fields whose width extends
from the Atlantic to the Territories.
W hen to this monstrous number are added
those whom the South has lost*, the aggro*
gate assumes dimensions bo vast and re
pel ling that humanity shudders and re
coils in the attempt to comprehend it.
