It was in the hospital where rested the gallant Hooker, that I learned the history Of those mythical words so often seen and so little understood, «S.T—is6a—-X." Anything alleviating the sufferings and saving the lives of our soldiers is a national bleseing. I wit- nessed some astonishing results from this article. It is well known the effect of burnt gunpow- der and excitement is thirst, which, added to the loss of blood in the wonnded, creates the necessity Of a reviving stimulant. In this par- ticular hospital, the physicians were allowing their patients to drink Plantation Bitters, other- wise called S. T—i60—-X, and although the wounded are most numerows here—this division having opened the fight at 5 in the morning— the men were mostly compored, and there was but yery litte fainting. The article acts upon the stomach and nerves in a most incompre- hensible manner, superior to brandy, and with- out subsequent stupifying reaction.
