They purify, strengten and invigorate. They create a healthy appetite. They are an antidote to a change of water and diet. They overcome effects of dissipation and late hours. They strengthen the system and enliven the mind. They prevent miasmatic and intermittent fevers They purify the breath and acidity of the stomach. They cure Dyspepsia and Constipation, They cure Diarrhea, Cholera, and Cholera’ Morbus. They cure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head- ache. They make the weak strong, the languid bril- iant, and are exhausted nature’s great restorer, They are composed of the celebrated Calisaya bark, wintergreen, sassafras, roots and herbs, all preserved in perfectly pure St. Croix rum, For particulars, see circulars and testimonials around each bottle.

SHERMAN. The Operations at Atlan Summary of ane Union Victery—A Werd to Cavil- ers. LovisviLs, Sept. §.—In answer to arequest that Major General Sherman would give us details of late operations before Atlanta, in order to silence the cavils of those who, in the absence of particulars, were denying that those operations were, on the whole, a Federal suc- cess, we have received the following: “ATLANTA, Sept. 7.—On the 25th of August, pursuant toa plan of which the War Depart- Ment had been fully advised,I left the 2th corps at Chattahooche bridge, and, with the balance of the army, I drew off from the siege, and using some considerable artifice to mislead the enemy, I moved se geared sonth and reached the West Point railroad, near Fairborn, on the 27th, and broke up twelve miles of it; when, moving east, my right approached the Macon railroad, near Jonesboro, and my left near Rough and Ready, the enemy attacked the right wing of the Army of the Tennessee, and ‘was completely beaten on the ist, and during the combat I posbed the left of the centre ra- idly toward the railroad above, between ough and Ready and Jonesboro, on the ist of September. ‘@ broke up about eight miles of the Macon road, and turned on the enemy at Jonesboro, assaulted him and his lines, and carried them, capturing Brigadier General Gorman and about two thousand prisoners, witheight guns and much plunder. Night alone prevented our capturing all of Hardee’s 8, Which es- caped south that night. That same night, Hood, in Atlanta, finding all his railroads broken and in our possession, blew up his am- munition, seven locomotives, and eighty cars, and evacuated Atlanta, which on thenextday, September 2, was occupied by the cerps left for that purpose, Major General Slocum com- manding; we following the retreating rebel army to near Lovejoy’s Station, thirty miles south of Atlanta, where, finding him strongly entrenched, I concluded it would not pay to assault, as we had already had the great ob- jects of the campaign, viz: Atlanta. Accord- ingly, the army gradually and leisurely re- tured to Alanta, and itis now encamped eight miles south of the city, and, to-morrow, will remove to the camps appointed. “Jl am now writing in Atlanta, so I could not be uneasy in regard to our situation. «We have, as the result of this quick, and, as I think well executed movement, guns, over 3,000 prisoners, and haye buried over 4100 rebel dead, and left as many wounded that could not be removed. The rebels haye lost, besides the important city of Atlanta, stores, at least 500 dead, 2,500 wounded, and 3,0 pris- oners; whereas our aggregate loss will not foot up 1,500. If that is not success, I don’t know what is. “W. T. SHeRMAN, Major General.” ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, Lee Reinforced by Early—Probable At- tack from the Rebels. The New York Tribune contains the follow- ing dispatch: HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, Sept.7._This beautiful morning may be the opening of a day of blood. A battle seems im- mipent—seems inevitable. The rebel army has been reinforced largely from Early’s depart- ment, and was yesterday crawling sraally into a position most precarious to them, thoug! they knew it not. easures have been taken to checkmate their wild scheme, and before to-morrow evening they will probably with- draw or be driven back. At least the public may confidently look for stirring news from this quarter immediately. Our recent successes here and everywhere have infused new pride and spirit into this army, that will now prove itself worthy of the admiration and trust expended upon it by & patriotic people. Assisted by the confidence and support of the North, its career will not be curbed by disaster till final victory is grasped. Yesterday was tullof busy prepar- ations for victory in the coming struggle. Accident to a Steamer. New York. Sept. 9.—The steamer Yazoo, hence on the 7th for New Orleans, has returned leaking, having, when twenty-four hours ont, broken her discharge-pipe. oe FINANCIAL.—The New York Commercial Ad- vertiser of yesterday evening says: The stock market is moderately active, with some irregularity in prices. Governments were active and higher, notwithstanding the prevailing suspense as to the result of the bids for $31,000,000 to be opened to-day. QUoupons of 1881 advanced };, and Five-twenties %;Cer- tificates declined ¥. The money market shows rather more strin- gency in consequence of the prospective taking of the new loan, while at the same time there is an increased inquiry for money. Tnere is anitcbing among brokers to start up an in- creased activity in the stock market, and they are not satisfied to wait until the loan has been disposed of. This keeps up an active inquiry for money, and is likely to hold the market tight for the next twenty days. The movement of money Westward, must be materially checked by payments for Western purchases of merchandise. The Western trade has to pay for its purchases in cash to a considerable ex- tent this fall, instead of buying on thirty to ninety days’ credit as usual, which on this market will be an important offset against the money sent hence for the moving of the crops. At the same time, by producing a scarcity ot money at the West, it will tend to keep down the prices of produce, thereby inappreciably reducing the amount required for carrying the crops. The Evening Post says: Mr. Fessenden has every reason to co. te ulate himself on the success of the new loan. Ati2p.m. the bids were opened, and three offers, at a fraction over 104, are reported to give a total of $22,000,000, The te bids are estimated at $60,000,000, of which deposits for $32.000,000 have been made with Mr. Stew- art, at the Sub-Treasury in this city. McCLELLAN’s ACCEPTANCE.—The New York Herald exhausts the language of eulogy over Gen. McClellan’s letter of acceptance. The News receives it rather coldly, and on account of the “late hour” at which it was received, refrains “from prosene comment on a@ subject eoimportant.” The News is disgusted with the speakers and the resolutions adopted at the McClellan ratification meeting. The speakers, with the exception of ex-Governor ickliffe, did not ‘stand fairly on the platform enumerated by the Chicago Convention.” The resolutions it berates after the following fash. ion: “The resolutions, so far as their meaning can be gathered from the obscurity of laby- rinthine phrases and imperfect construction, fail to represent the position assumed by the Democracy at this crisis, and are simply frivo- lous and rediculous. It is trifling with the in- terests of the party, and insulting to the good sense of the people to put together a mass of words in the form of resolutions better calcu- lated to mistify than to instruct, and whose purport is the fulsome flattery of a candidate rather than the straightforward enunciation of principles, It is time that the Democratic masses should be spoken to as reasonable beings. ‘We are upon the of an election that is to decide a people’s fate; and it is folly and crime to disguise the solemn truths that the people are already familiar with.” &7-A lady correspondent, who assumes to know how Toys one it to be trained, writes to fn exchange as follows:—“O mothers! hunt ont the soft, tender genial side of your boy’s nature.”” Mothers often do—with anold shoe— to the boy’s benefit.

The heir apparent of Russia, the future master of a realm of more than seven millions ofsquare miles—an empire comprising one- seventh of the territorial part of the globe, and about one twenty-sixth part ofits entire sur- face—is in want of a wife and cannot find one. This astounding piece of news is going the round of the continental papers. Grand Duka Nicholas, heir apparent of all the Russias, 21 ears old, tall, good looking, in splendid uni- form, speaking five languages,and with all the accomplishments, is willing to wed, yet cannot eta wife. It is said that Grand Duke Nicho- jas bas onlyfive royal princesses offered for his selection; and that, unfortunstely, of these five high born ladies, he does not like [thraa, and his imperial father does not like the other two, So that, i peat oF fact, the heir expectant of one-seventh of the earth{can get no wife at all. Poor Nicholas. There wasa time when the Ozar and his family were allowed to pick their partners from among the whole flora of fari princesses, It is said of Peter the Great—that when he wanted aspouse forhis son Alexis,he circulated a round robin among the five score of reigning families in Germany, bidding them to send all their marriageable daughters, de- ducting the plain ones to Moscow for inspec- tion. The invitation was responded to by a crowd of fair and illustrious damsels, and the fairest flower from among them was picked for the drunken and dissolute heir-apparent. Subsequently the business was conducted mainly by advertisement. A hint giveninoneot the Hamburg papers thus considered the organs ot the Russian Government, generally bronght alot of portraitsto the Imperial courts, from the inspection of which resulted further ne- gotiations. Princess Clara, of Hohenhausen- Onnebrod, being held the most eligible of the matrimonial candidates, was then invited, to- gether with some Ohnebrod aunt, to spenda couple of weeks at the Imperial court, where she was to be kept if finally approved of, or if not returned to her loving parents at the grim castle of Honénnausen. rhe Congress of Vi- enna, when by the sweeping away of nearly a hundred crowned heads from the field of roy- alty had the effect of greatly lessening the charmed circle within which the Uzars were wont to rove, and Czar Nicholas when not yet heir-apparent, had to pay assiduous courtship to win the hand of the King of Prussia’sdaugh- ter,and his three younger sons experienced actual difficulty to get a bride. The young ladies of “good family,” finding that they were eagerly sought after, and that, in fact, the de- mand was far greater than the supply, refused to goto Russia. They objected to the country as too cold; and to the rulers as being given to to the ugly habit of beating their wives, royal- ty notwithstanding. Thus the circlenarrowed more and more around the Czar’s preud fami- ly, until it has now become the humiliating necessity to declare that the heir apparent of Russia cannot find a wite at all. It is the greatest victory the ladies have achieved in the nineteenth century.—London Globe. ————_______. THE CRors OF THE CouNTRY.—The bi- monthly report of the Agricultural Depart- ment at Washington says therains which have recently fallen have dispelled the fears which ‘were entertained for the fall crops. In regard to the corn corp, the returns shows that on the first day of August, in Illinois, the great corn- producing State of the country, its condition ‘Was an average one; in lowa, two-tenths above such average; in Indiana, three and one-third tenths below; in Ohio, one and one-half tenths below; in Wisconsin, one-half tenth below. But, taken into consideration the effects of the rains which have recently fallen, there is nothing to justify apprehensions of scarcity in any of the great cereal products. It is be- lieved that the loyal States will have pro- duced enongh for abundant home consump. tion, and supply the usual foreign demands for our cereals. There will be a considerable increase of sorghum crop. a decrease of tobac- co; flax and beans largely increased. The grain crop has been unusually well secured, and a ton of it this year is estimated as equal to a ton and a half of last year's product. The wheat crop is excellent in quality, and thus Tar reduces its loss to between 13 and 14 per cent. below the crop of 1563, one of the largest ever grown in this country. These accounts fre made up from returns from every part of every State. The October report will show exactly what the crops of the year have been. The only crop about which there is any doubt is that of potatoes. The weather is now fayor- able te their growth. A New Yors SensatT:ion.—On Monday last the various steamboat offices of the lines from Boston to New York were profoundly excited. 1t was annouuced that a plot had been dis- covered for the destruction of the steamers running on the Sound. }Three rebel emissaries, it was stated, were recently sent north to as- certain the best point and time at which to strike these boats, off the Oonnecticut shore. Since then all has been bustle and alarm. The pane lying at New London got up steam on onday night and ran ont into the Sound, with orders to warn all boats against paying atten- tion to any signals whatever. onday beinga stormy night, the boats were all detainedon the Sound, and great fear consequently fell upon all concerned. Four revenue steamers, it is known, have been ordered to look after the Electric Spark, and it is hoped, thoagh by no means believed, that the danger is over. It is @ fact that the Tallahassee came into Newport harbor about three weeks ago, looked at things in general, quietly steamed around the Guer- rierre, then lying there, steamed out again, un- challenged. As the Electric Sparkis the prize and consort of the Tallahassee, the present scare probably grew out of this circumstance, —WN. ¥. Commercial. Provisions SovTH.—While the Richmond p&pers are pretending that there is an ample supply of food for the Southern armies, a meeting was held at Sumter, S.C., on the 2d ult., at which a military officer from Lee’s army stated that the army must be supplied with corn from Sou Mest & committee of forty-two was appoin' raise supplies, and the following resolution adopted : Pe «That we have heard with the deepest inter- est and anxiety the appeal of the pecreary of War, Quartermaster General and Major - rington, the authorized agent of the vern- ment, in relation to want of corn in the army of Virginia, a want which must be sup- plied by South Carolina alone, the ether States of the Confederacy sll having been drained of supplies.” McCLELLAN MEETING at New YORK.—A ratification meeting of the nominations aa Fores in pons 7 Sard ew York, on ‘ursday evening, under auspieces of the Rel len’s Democratic pm aas Among the speakers were:—Goyernor ‘mour, of New ork; Ex-Governor Wickliffe: of Kentucky, Luke Cozans, of New York; Ani J. rs, of New Jersey; Judge Parker; of New York; Hon.
