Persons of sedentary habits troubled with ‘weakness, lussitude, palpitation of the heart, lack of appetite, distress after eating, torpid Mver, constipation, &c., deserve to suffer if they will not try them.

NoTick.—Any person pretending to sell Plantation Bitters in bulk or by the gallon is a swindler and imposter. We only put it up in our log cabin bottles. Beware of bottles refilled ‘with imitation deleterious stuff, for which sevy- eral persons are already in prison.

FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. pee ae ta Army Unchanged: tthe fl te Gene de’s Speech—Cen- ™M jeo—' gratulatery Orders. From information reeeived last night, it ap- pears that the general position of the Army of the Potomac wus mainly unchanged. Gen. Butord on Tuesduy passed through @ulpeper,and reconnoitered the enemy position on the Rapidan. From requisitions and invoices picked up in the late rebel camps, it is arcertained that there ‘Was noscarcity of the necessaries of life in Lee’s army. Rations were commuted at 75 cents & day. From semi-official: reports, it ie’ known that the larger part of both Ewell’s and Hill’s carps lay en echelon nearly parallel to the Rappa- hannock on Saturday, the right resting below Kelly’s Ford, and ‘the left near Rixeyville, on Aesthansis river. Evidences alsoexist of their precipitate retreat in consequence of General Meade’s masterly movements. !While it is known that no enemy in force is nprth of the Rapidan, guerrilla parties hang about our lines, and frequent collisions occur. ;On Friday night, Private Terry, attached to the headquarters of the Quariermaster’s de- partment, was fired upon near camp, and récelved eeveral, but not dangerous, buckshot wounds. {HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE Poromac, who. 11.— Yesterday atternoon, Col. Upton, ccmmanded the brigade which, last Sat- urday. so succesefully charged and captured the enemy’s works at Rappahannock Station, accompanied by deputations trom each of the regiments participating in the assault, presented Gen.

Upton presented the flags in the name of his command, naming the regiments—the 5th and 6th Maine, the 5th Wisconsin, and the I2iet New York, the latter Vol. Upton’s own. Gen.

To Major General Sedgwick, and the officers and men ofthe 5th and 6th corps participating in the attack, particularly to the storming party under Brigadier General Russell, his thanks are due for the gallantry displayed in the as- saulton the enemy’s entrenched position of Rappahannock Station, resulting in the cap- ture of 4 guns, 2,000 small arms, 5 battle-fixgs, one bridge team, and 1,600 prisoners. To Major General French, and the officers and men of the 3d corps engaged, particularly to the leading column commanded by Colenel Trolnand, his thanks are due for the bra: displayed in crossing at Keliy’s Ford, and seizure of the enemy’s entrenchments, and the capture of over 400 prisoners.

G. Supposed Privateers en the Lakes. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11.—Special dispatches from Cincinnati give a singular story about two suspected vessels discovered yesterday hovering about Sandusky bay, supposed to be privateers fitted out by secessionists in Canada, aiced by sympathizers there and in the States. The supposed Object of the vessels is to release the prisoners on Johnson's Island and com- mence piracy ou the lakes and pillage on land. A battery of Parrott guns was ordered forth- with to the islerd. It may be @ scare, but there is, however, mere of feasibility in such an enterpriee than in the alleged conspiracy recently discovered. Possibly it is a part of that abortive plot. Massachusetts Legislature, Boston, Nov. 11.—In the Legislature to-day, Gov. Andrew’s message was referred to special legislative committee, which met im- mediately after the House adjourned.

Federal and Upehiseets Finances Com- mittee. [From the Richmond Examiner.) - . The stow depreciation of Federal currency is one of the most remarkable phenemena of this extraordinary. war, Contrasting the market prices of Confederate with those of Federal money gives a low opinion of Mr. Hunter's, com- pared with Mr. Chase's, financial abilities. We console ourselves for the apparent disparity of financial ability between the two peoples, as communities, by reflecting that ours were wholly sericalarst quite unpracticed and unskilled in the art of finance; while, with our commercial antagonists, it bad long been a subject of anxious and cessful study. Give ing little thought to the subject since hostilities began, our people—even our best legislaturs— reposed in the belief that the South possessed one or two great financial statesmen. with genius fally equal to the financial emergency; and it is only recently that they have dis. covered their confidence has been signally mis- placed. * * * * * The Federal Secretary of the Treasury has Tun up 4 great debt without commensnrately flooding the North with aredundant currency. The eonsequence has been very marked; for, whereas the Federal war debi exceeds two thousand millions of dollard, and that of the Contederacy has not reached one thousand millions, yet Confederate currency is at dis- count of ten or twelve for one of goid, while the Federal currency is less than two for oae. Prices of all things have risen at the North in consequence of an inflated currency; bul in- asmuchas this inflation has been wonderfully re= strained by tact, ingenuity and skill, prices have not approzimated the enormous rates which are prevatent at the South. As it is lawfal to learn whatever may ae ible from anenemy, may we not bopethat Mr. Memminger and Mr Hun- ter will take a {ew hints in the practical depart- ments of finance from such consummate adepts in this intricate business as the public enemy ? Blessings Brighten, &c. {From the Richmond Examiner.} ss Especially strange does it & nthat we are nevef aware of the wealth of the abindoned sections until they are abandoned, and them we suddenly wake up to the fact that the Yankees are foraging with ense and comfort in a country which, it was supposed, we had deserted because itcould notsuetain life. Who knew, for instance, of the immense resources of Loudoun county before the retreat from Mannzsas! Who thougt that Eastern North Carolina was the Exypt ot the Confederacy tx fore the taking of Roanoke I=land ! Who estimated the millions of pounds ot Facon stored away between Petersburg and Suffolk betore the country was virtually given, up tothe Yankees! Who appreciated the fer- tility of the Northern Neck until the Lincoln Taiders commenced “ranning to and fro”? through that rich peninsula, and « increasing their knowlecge” of its wide fields of corn and Mammoth stacks of wheat! Who thought of East Tennessee as other than a rugged, moun- tajnous country, which conld feed neither friend or foe? “Who, even now, justly prizes the importance ot the salines aud iead mines of Southwestern Virginia? Who sees the necessity of drawing in the supplies of the south side in case the Yankees should try, as they doubtless will, that last untried Ime to Richmona! Everybody - no, not everytody, certainly not the Commissary- General—“Cit on is Mr. Foresight—after sight,” Says a comic poet of antiquity; and sensible men every where in the Confederacy are wear: of “sober, second thonght, ’and disgusted wit fertile afierthought on the part of those whose business it is to be acquainted not with the resources of the country, bat also with the manner in which those resources are distrib- uted. Why is the South net Recognized by the European Powers?

It will come in the shape of 8 combined movement by foreign nations in favor of our recognition as an independent Power. Not the most remote star of hope, we think, glim- mers above the horizon of our hemisphere to fiash a eolitary ray of light across the murky expanse, The situation of the two combate ants, and the overwhelming issue at stake bee tween them, forbids that there should be any. The issue is nothing less than one of national life and death, in which defeat involves to one party bankruptcy and ruin more overwheime g than ever overtook a nation, and to the other a debasing enslavement more intolerable than the most abject serf ever endured. In such a dilemma how can the combatants ever settle a peace? It is with asettled conviction of the impracticability of any other adjustment that ue iG cee to the for light.

Wane s' fuk ay ve UUs AUCURMIUOR Dy foreign Powers! Does one know? Our best hope for deliverance from this apparen’ interminable conflict is, as we believe, in that direction, and makes this a vital, most absorb- ing question. We repeat, why are we not rec- ognized by the leading Powers of Europe? If our representatives abroad do netknow, they have been sent on their mission to but litile purpose. If they do know, of course the. secret has communicated to the Sanhedrim at Richmond, and we would respectfully ask of them to oué with it to the people. Is the institution of Slavery the great stam- bling-block to our independence ? is is am enormous question, we admit, to deal with, but not beyond the cope of broad and far-sighted statesmanship.
