The natives of Pern are generally supposed to huve been long previously acquainted with its most wonder- Tul medicinal qnalities.

After its in- troduction it was distributed and sold by the Jesuits, who are said to have obtained for it the enormous sum of its weight in silver. From this cirenmstance it was called Jestit’s Pow- DER, 2 title which it retained many years. In 1652, we are told that an Englishman by the name of Sir John Talbot employed it with great success in France, in the treatment of Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Nervous A ffec tions, Loss of Appetite, Weakness and Debility, Palpita- tuon of the Heart, &c., &c.. under the mame of English Powders; at length, in the year 1679, he sold the secret of its origin and Preparation to Louis XIV., by whom it was divulged. Itis now a standard remedy, and is employed in the preparation of the Plantation Bitte: CASCARILLA BARK iz another important ingredient. It is employed as @ gentile stimulant and tonic, in Dyspepsia, Chronic Diarrhoea, Colic, Dysentery, and dis- eases of the stomach and bowels, DANDELION is used for inflammation of the loins and spleen, in cases of bilary secretions and dropsical affec- tions, dependent upon obstructions of the ab- dominal viscera, and derangement of the diges- tive organs generally. —_ CHAMOMILE FLOWERS used for enfeebled digestion and want of appe- tte WINTERGREEN, ts a medicinal plant of very great efficiency, and is especially valuable in Scrofula, Rheuma- tiam, and Netretic affections.

INTERCEPTED LETTERS. nnexed official letters from the ins: The ince, while being transmit- ted for file to Brig. Gen. Thos. Jordan, Assistant Adjutant General of the rebel army at Chatta- nooga, Tennessee. They have been withheld by the General-in-Chief until the alarm that their publication might have created has sed away, our forces having been effectively con- cenirated to meet the demonstrations recently made in pursuance of this plan: Gen. Beauregard to Adj't Gen'l Cooper. [Confidential.) —§ Movie, (Ala.,) Sept. 5, °62. General: Under thé supposition that on the restoration of my health I wonld be returned so the command of Department No.2, I had pre. pared, whilst at Biadin, (Ala.,) a plan of opera- tions in Tennessee and Kentucky, based on my knowledge of that part of the theatre of war. But, hearing that my just expectations are to be disappointed, I haye the honor te communicate itto the War Department, in the hope that it may be of service to our arms and toour cause. It was submitted by me to Gen. Bragg on the 2d instant. By looking at the map it will be seen that the forces operating in that section of country will be separated at first by one river (the Tennes- sse), and afterwards by two(the Tennessee and Cumberland); hence they will be unable to sup- port each other, being unprovided with pon- toon trains; but their operations must be more or less dependent on or conneeted with each other. I will first refer to those in East Tennessee, and then to those west of it. In the first case “our objective points” must be, first Louisville, and then Cincinnati. How best toreach them from Chattanooga, with Buell at Huntsville and Stevenson, is the question. It is evident he has the advantage of two bases of operations—the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers—and that if we advance towards our “objective points” without getting rid of him, we would expose our lines of communication with Chattanooga. We must, then, bed him battle first, or compel him to retire before us. Should he retire on Nashville (as the news; pers say he is now doing),we will be advancing towards Louisville; but, should he yenture on Florenge or Savannah to unite his forces with Rosecrans or Grant, we will haye to concen- irate enough of our forces from Middle and East Tennessee to follow him rapidly and de- feat him in a great battle, when we would be able to resume our march as before indicated. ‘We must, however, as soon as practicable, construct strong works tocommand the Ten- nessee and Cumberland rivers, for other our communieations would be eut off by the enemy as soon as these two rivers shall haye | riven sufficiently to admit the entrance of their gunboats and transports. The best position for said works is about forty miles below Forts Donelson and Henry, not far from Eddyville; where these tworivers come within one-and-a- half niles of each other. I am informed there is at that point a commanding elevation, where a strong field work could be constructed for a surrison of about 2.500 or 3,000 men, who could hold ont (with ample provisions and ammuni- tion) against a large army. Underythe guns of this work, and along the bank of each river, a series of batteries armed with the heaviest guns (>, 9, and 10-inch, and rifled guns) could be constructed, bearing directly on obstructions placed in each of said rivers. When Louisville shall have fallen into our possession I wonld construct a work there for the command of the Ohio and the canal; and T would destroy the latter as soon as possible, so completely that future travelers would hardly know where it was. This I would do asa re- turn for the Yankee vandalism in ‘attempting to obstruct forever the harbors ot Charleston and Savannah. A detachment of onr army could, 1 think, take Louisville, while the main body would be marching to Cincinnati; but if we could get boats enough it would be shorter to go up the Ohio in them, To keep the command of Cincinnati, 1 would construct a strong work, heavily armed, atCov- imgton. Now for the operations in Western Tennessee. The oust there should be to drive the enemy | from there and resume the comnrand of the Mississippi river. For these purposes I would concentrate ra- pidly, at Grand Junction, Price’s army and all that could be spared from Vicksburg of Van | Dorn’s. From there I would make a forced marek = Fort Pillow, which I_ would take with probably only 2 small loss. Itis evident the forces at Memphis and Yazoo river wonld then have their line of communication by the | | river with the north cut of. and they would - Fre- | Two large gunboats are still lying off have either to surrender or cross without re- tources into Arkansas, where Gen. Hoimes weuld take good care of them. From Fort Pillow I would compel the forces at Cormth and Jackson, Tennessee, to fall back precipi- tately to Humboldt and Columbus, or their lines of communication would be cut off also. We wonld then pursne them vigorously be. yond the Miss: at Columbus, or the Ono at Paducah. . ‘We would thus compel the enemy to evacus ate st once the State 0} reg 9 and West- ern Tennessee, with pi Joss yp our }*rtof only a few by Gen.

To attack Buell at or about Chat 3d. To attack Grant at or about Memphis. ith. To remain idle at Tupelo. Frem what you state, the first is evidently inadmissible, and the last cannot be enter- tained for one moment; for action, action, and | action is what we require! | Now, with regard to the other two proposi- it isevident that unless you reinforce | E. K. Smith at Chattanooga, he will ve | overpowered by Buell, and then our commn- | nications with the East and our supplies at | Atlanta, Augusta, d&c., will be cutoff. Also, that a perrtial reimforcement would so weaken. | you at Tupelo as to paralyze you for any other movements from there. Hence you have | adopted the wisest conrse in sending © Smith | all your available forces, except just enough to | guard your depots, &c., to the rear of your present position at Tupelo, The third proposition would haye afforded | you some success, but not as brilliant and im- portant in results as the second one—if the newspapers will permit you to carry it success- fully into effect. For ck and Buell, oc- cupying the base of a long isosceles triangle, of which Mobile is the apex, could get te Charta- noogs before yon, it they shonld become aware ol your movement, and then you would have Yo contend again with superior forces—as equal To Ds. The moment you get to Chattanooga you ought to take the offensive, keeping in mind the following grand principles of the art ef wor: Always bring the masses of yonr army in ct with the fractions of the enemy. yperate asmuch as possible on his com- munications without exposing your own. 3. Operate always on interior or shorter ines. I have no doubt that with anythinglike equal nuaiers you will always meet with success lam happy to see that my two Lieutenancs, Morgan anc Forrest, are doing such good s+r- vice mm Kentucky and Tennessee.
