The Charieston Courier makes a timely sug- gestion in recommending the attention of our government to the naturalization and cultiva- tion of Calisaya, for the preseryation of the health ofoursoldiers, This article bas a pecu- liar effect upon the liver, and gurds the sys- tem against disease by exposure and irregular diet. It is said that the grea: snecess of the Plantation Bitters of Dr. Drake, which, previ- ous toonr unhappy difficulties was found in most Southern homes, was owing to theextract of Calisaya Bark which it contained as one of ite principal ingredients.—“ In contirmation of this, we have heard one of our most distin- guished physicians remark, that whenever he felt unwell from ordinary dietetic or atmos- pheric causes, he invariably relieved himself by Plantation Bitters, Now that these Bitters cannot be obtained, ® substitute should be pre- pared. We understand onr government has cpened negotiations with Dr. Drake, throngha secret agent, but -with what truth we do not know.” * * * * * * * We are exceedingly obliged to the Richmond Whig for its remembrance of “Auld Lang Syne,” but we can assure “Our Government” that the Plantation Bitters are netfor sale toany “secret agents,” North or South. There is probably several other things that “Onr Government?’ will yet want. We know that we have the bestand most popular medicine in the world. We are not afraid to show what it is composed of. Physicians are compelled to recommend it. CaLisAyA BARK has been celebrated for over two hundred years, and was sold during the reign of Louis XVI, King of France, for the enormous price of its own weight in silver. It is remarkable for Dyspepsia, Fevers, Weakness, Constipation, &c. OascaRILLA BKaRK.—For Diarrhea, Uslic, and diseases of the stomach and bowels.

The Times looks upon the election of the Archduke Maximillian in Mexico as important, and cays it will have a tendency to a union be- tween France and Austria, and a division be- tween France and America.

Two gentlemen (brothers) have just arrived here from Richmond, residents of fort, N. C., and left North Carolina the last day of May. They were arrested for being Unionists, and taken to Richmond and incarcerated in Castle ‘Fhunder, where they remained until the 25th of July, when they were conscripted by order of Confederate States Attorney Aylett, after. having been released from their imprisonment in Castle Thunder. When conscripted they were taken toCamp Lee, where they remained nine days, when they succeeded in making their escape, and came down the Peninsula via Pa- munkey river to Yorktown. They proclaimed themselves sworn enemies to the rebel cauce from beginuing to end. They report that most of the fortifications about Richmond haye no guns mounted, and they saw none to mount; 2nd the rebel forces are very limited, in or about Richmond.

Fourteen hundred conscripts from West Ten- nessce were at Okalona awaiting arms. General Dodge is much better, and will prob- ably go North to recruit his heaith. The Drait in New York. NrEw York, August !9.—The draft to-day proceeded without any demonstrations other than jovial remarks reiative to the + elected.” Military arrangements continue of the most pertect chrracter, and, General Canby is un- ceasing in vigilance, remainingat headquarters day and night. Judging by the thorough pre- cautionary measures, 2 mob could not certainly liye an hour either in New York or Brooklyn.

Pebe tie <a elation The draft in thé city of New York, w ieh Was interrupted in July by the riot, was re- sumed yesterday in the Sixth Congressional District. The utmost qniet prevailed, and there is every reason to believe that the dract will now be allowed to go on peacefully, and that the law will be tully enforced. The crawing yesterday took place at No. 155 Sixth avenue, and long before the hour announced jer the drawing to commence & Iarge crowd hud assembled in and about the building, ber bo one present appeared to be in- clined to engzge im a riot or distarbance. No soldiers were immediately at the building, outside, bul as @ precautionary measure a de- tachment was placed in the second and thir story of the buildivg, and regiments were s> disposed in the imuiediate neighborhood as i» be within speedy call.. A police tores gf au- hundred men was detailed for duty aud around the room where the drawing took place. A committee of prominent citizens counted the ballots and placed them in the wheel. Whrn the announcement was made that 7,708 ballots Lad been placed in the wheel, and thay of that number but 1,100, or one out of seven, were to be taken, the crowd seemed much pleased, and made such expressions as, ‘Is that al,” “Thats not much,” Ac. The ames were drawn by a man named Bishop, who has been biind for ten years; bar in order to «make assurance doubly sure,” he wus also blindfolded. The blind man asked to be shown how to oper the door. On Captain Farr, the Provost Marshal, showing him, he was greeted by one a the crowd with +-Keep your hands outof the OX. When ready to proceed he was saluted with many good-natured remarks, such as “Won't you lake a drink!” “Take off yorr coat.” One Irishman, more impatient than ihe others, said, “Don’t lose so much time, hurry up and let us go home.” ‘The blind'man took off his coat and rolted ap his shirt sleeves before proceeding to draw the names, The first name drawn was received with three hearty cheers, but Capt. Farr requestéa that no more such boisterous demonstrations be made, and after that there ‘was nocontusion; bul as names were drawn and the parties re- cognized, 2 good was ereated. The District in which this drawing took place is said to be one of the most quiet and peaceable in the city; but the good feeli manifested, and the absence of the roughs an that eines who create disturbances, induces the belief that no more such diegracetul scenes ay those of July will be again enacted. deal of merriment Rather Ric’ Station House Scene. On Wednesday night a draited man called at the Second District Station-honse, in Philadel- phia, baving with hi n indiyidual wnom he had engaged asa sulMtitute. He desired the substitute to be locked up until morning. The officer in command justly refused tode any- thing of the kind, as sugh a transaction would be entirely illiegal. . “I am afraid,” said the applicant, “he will escape if he is mot detained, and I must have him at the Provost Marshal’s office in the morning, or I’m a goner.” “1 cannot help you, sir. Nobody can be locked up in thee cells unless there is some criminal charge preferred,” replied the officer in command. «What shall I do?” said the stranger. “Stay with him until morning,” replied the officer. “1 can’t do it; I want to go home.” “Well, sir, there is no use of any more con- versation on the subject, we have no right to detain your friend.” The twomen departed, and nothing more ‘Was thought ot the affair. Between twelve aud one o’clock in the morn- ing, & couple of officers arrived at the station, having in custody a man very much intoxica- ted. To use the language of one of the officers, he was “staving drunk.” The oblivious indiyidual was placed in tre cell, and at six o'clock, having had five hours’ sleep, was arraigned before the magistrate on the charge of drunkenness. The evidence Was positive, and the usual fine, in such cases made and provided, was imposed. The officer tound him on the sidewalk, fast asleep, not far distant from the station-house. As the magistrate announced the fine as im- posed, & pretty well-dressed man stepped up tram armong the metley group and paid it. The officer in command of the station looked at him intently, as though he had seen him before. The man smiled as he paid the fine. He was the same individual who, on the eve- ning previous, had made application to have his substitute locked up for safe-keeping, to prevent him escaping to Manzyunk, at which place his services had been obtained. As he turned to go away he looked at the oificer, placed his thumb aside bis nose, gyrated bis fingers, and smiled again. The officer looked as if he was trying to measure the depth of space, and finally broke the sileuce he imposed upon himseli by ejacu- Jating the single word “sold.” The substitute was introduced to Provost. Marsha! Lehman, was accepted, & uniform placed upon him, and he was at once sent to the barracks. Rosecrans’ ARMY.—There are slightindica- tons, suys the Cincinnati Commercial’ of Mon- day last, that Rosecrans’ army is in motion, The refusal to permit citizens to travel to and from Nashville and Winchester, and the burn- ing of the remaining pertion of the bridge over the Tennessee at Bridgeport, aresignificant in - dications that the quiet which hasreigued along the Tennessee river bas been broken, or soon will be. The Nashville Union also says: Governor Johnson, accompanied by his pri- vate Secretary, Colonel Browning, returned on Friday evening from @ visit of several days to the front. His trip was extended as far as Fayetteville, in Lincoln county, but a short dis- tance from Huntsville. The army is in motion, and will very probably take possession of Chat- tanooga without resistance. Refugees report Bragg moving in the direction of Atlanta, and that his force is greatly weakened and disorgan- ized. We cherish astreng hope that by the fir-t ot September we will have session of ali of glorious east Tennessee.. There is no power in the Southern Confederacy equal io resist the great army which is on its march to Ohat- tanooga. i FINANCIAL.—New York rs of yesterday. evening say the stock market ruled irregular.
