Persons of sedentary habits troubled with weak- ne 8, lassitude, palpitation of the heart, lack o appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, con- stipation, &c.,deserve to suffer if they will mot try the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS, which are now recommended by the highest medi- cal authorities, and warranted to produce an im- mediate beneficial effect, They are exceedingly agreeable, perfectly pure, and must supercede all other tonics where a healthy, gentle stimulant is required. 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- jant, 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.

The Democracy present were Frederick Schmidt, L. P. Moses, Henry Lyles, Michael Duffey, John McCullom and three others. A temporary organization was effected by Mr. S. P. Moses taking the chair, and Mr. F. Schmidt acting as secretary. Mr. Schmidt moved that a committee be ap- pointed to draft a constitution and by-laws for the government of the association, which was *FThe chal aM Ss é chair appointed Messrs. Schmid afte; and McCnliom cee On motion ot Mr. John McCullom, the chair- man of the meeting (Mr. Moses) was added to the committee. a? Mr. John McCullom inquired of the Chair how the slim attendance of Demozrats at the meeting was to be accounted tor. The Chair, in reply, stated that there was certainly some misunderstanding as to the night of meeting, or the Democratic residents ot the Ward would not be aheent. Mr. F. Schmidt suggested that perhaps suf- ficient publicity had not been given to the cal 1h. Mr. Michael Duffey said that the call was advertised in Tom Florence’s paper, but it might be that the people did not read Tom’s aper. 2 Te was then agreed to adjourn until to-night, and advertise the call in the Star and Constitu- tional Union. At this meeting Mr. Michael Duffey handed over to Mr. Schmidt, Chairman of the finance committee of the National Democratic Associa- tion, 5 thathe (Duffey) had collected from a gentleman to assist in defraying the expenses of the celebration to take place on the 17th inst. eee FourntH Warp McCrecran CLus.—An adjourned meeting of this club was held last night at Parker’s Hall; about the same number of Fourth-warders being present as at the meeting on Saturday night. The club was called to order by the president, Mr. F. A. Klopfer. Justice Clayton, from the committee on or- ganization, made @report, and recommended the adoption of the constitution of the National Democratic Association for the government of this club, subject to such changes as will be required to make itapply toa local association. The resolutions also fully endorse the nomina- tions at Chicago, and pledge the club to do all in their power to secure their election, and re- store the Government by taking it out of the hands of the present corrupt party. The fourth resolution demands obedience to the laws, and repudiates the dogma of military necessity for arrests. ‘Fhe fifth resolution pledges the ‘lives, fortunes and sacred honors”’ of the members to devotion to the Union and the cause of the Constitution. The resolutions were adopted. The chair suggested that members present come up and sign the constitution. Justice Clayton thought it best to defer the matter until the constitution could be trans- cribed in regular form. The chair would like to have the signatures now. it was finally resolved to defer signing the constitution until it shall be transcribed. It was resolved toelecta Vice President and Treasurer. Mr. T. G. Olayton was elected Vice President and Mr. E. Edmonston Treas- urer. Mr. W. J. Miller was nommated for the latter office also, but he was not a resident of the ward, and consequently was not eligible. Messrs. R. W. Fenwick, Thomas Barch, Frank Herbert, T.G. Clayton and Wm. Neale Were appointed a committee to make arrange- ments for the joining of the club in the celebra- tion of the 17th. Theiconstitution amended so as to make it eppeene to the club was here read, and Mr. udd said if there was noturther business he would move to adjourn. The chair suggested they could now sign the constitntion. Mr. Mudd wanted to know how they could sign it when it was not yet transcribed, and he insisted upon his motion to adjourn. Mr. W. J. Miller was called upon for a speech, and he took the stand and made a few remarks. He was glad to see so many turning out to form clubs, and he hoped there would be a good turn out on the 17th of September, tne day upon which the Constitution was adopted, and the battle of Antietam was fought and won. Mr. Lakenan suggested that all look in the papers of Friday to find out all the arrange- ments as to the celebration; and there being no further business the association adjourned. Before the assembling of the Club, we no- ticed that the inscriptions on the transpa- rencies were exposed to view, and commenced to copy some of them, not, however, for pub- lication. Mr. Fenwick paltiely: Tequested us not to take them for publication, and we re- plied that such was not our intention. They ‘were exposed to full view,and we remarked they were getting published pretty fast by that means However, the meeting was called to order, and after the adjournment, we, with others, went to take another look at the trans- parencies, and one particularly attracting our attentism, we proceeded to put it upon our notes, when we were accosted with “You mush’nt bublish dem dinks.” We replied we did not intend their publication, when Mr. Frederick Schmidt snatched our notes from our hands, with the remark, ‘‘py got, you can’t dake dem dinks.” Our notes were considerably torn and rom- pled when we got them back, through our own exertions and those of a friend or two standing by; one party intimating to Mr. Schmidt that his act looked very like an as- sault. However, we forgive him, and promise to give afullreport of his next speech, thus showing that we bear no malice. ee MEETING IN THE SIXTH WARD.—An ad- journed meeting of the Democrats of the Sixth ard was held last evening over the grocery of T. A. Tolson, corner of 7th and G streets, and was attended by about forty persons—Mr. Toleon in the chair and Mr. Marcellus Marce- Ton secretary. Mr. Marceron reported the draft of the con- stitution and by-laws for the government of the association, in which the object is set forth * To aid in securing toman the peaceful enjoy- ment of his constitutional rights and the fruits of his own industry; to preserve intact the fan- damental principles of the Declaration of In- dependence, and to perpetuate the guarantees of the Constitution of the United States” and its means “ by the development and diffusion of truth, enabling men to understand their rights and duties, the manner in which they are effected by existing laws and institutions, and needful changes,” The constitution was adopted without a dis- senting voice, and on invitation being given the following walked up, forked over their twenty-five cent note, and signed their names: T.A.Tolson, Marcellus Marceron, D.

The election of officers being next in order, nominations were made and the following were elected: ‘1. A. Tolson, President; Thomas Altemus and S. Grilo, Vice Presidents; M. Marceron, Secretary; James Boiseau, Treasurer. The following were elected members of the executive committee; Messrs. Ober, Russell, Mullen, Ferrester, Bowie, Dudley, Barr. Mr. Boiseau moved the election of the vigi- lance committee be postponed. Mr. Harrison objected to any postponement on the ground that the meeting was probably as Jarge as any would be before the election, and it George B. was elected, the room they ‘were now in would not begin to hold them, Mr. Boisean argued that the vigilance com- mittee would have nothing to do; this commit- tee’s business is generally confined to the mu- nicipal election. MF. Harrison acknowledged thatthere would be no work for the committee, but he wanted the m fully organized, 80 that it could not be thrown up to the members that an or. ganization had not been affected. There were lenty Democrats in the ward, but it was not Fiely that any other than those who were present would get out to a meeting, for the most of them were muzzled, and now was as oOo Mussel urged that it would poll f Would be impolitic to appoint the committee when there was nd necessity. He wanted men who would work, and wi gs that theexecutive was a ited, but would have liked to have seen stricter men on it—men who would mark those who persecuted them so long. “Mr. Harrison withdrew his motion, and the Mmouion to postpone was carried. On motion of Mr. Botseau, a committee, con- sisting of Messrs. Boizeau, Russell and Tol. 2on, was appointed to consult with the central = in reference to the celebration on jaturday. Forrester moved the appointment of a committee to collect money to pay for musicon Saturday evening, it being understood that the Fitth Ward engages the masic and escorts the Sixth Ward Association to the Oapitol; which motion prevailed, and Messrs. Forrester, Wood and Spedden were appointed. Mr. Boiseau_was appointed marshal for Satarday, and Mr. Russell deputy. The Association resolved to meet on every Tueeday night until otherwise ordered.

Correspondence of the New York Herald.] EADQUARTERS 18TH ARMY CoRPs, Near Point of Rocks, Va., Sept. 10.—The rebels yester- day unexpectedly awoke from the silence they have for some time past maintaimed, and s luted our line with a most furious bombard- ment. The new signal tower opposite to Dutch Gap received the attention of the heavy guns at Howlett’s and the 1(-inch Parrotts at the new battery they have thrown up to command the bend of the river above the canal. Nu- merous shells flew all around it and over it, but fortunately the enemy did not succeed in striking their target. If they had, the tower is so constructed that several of the supports could be knocked away without inflicting ma- terial damage. Every part of the work is so strongly braced that three uprights would be amply sufficient to support the structure, even: in a gale of wind. The rebel batteries capable of throwing shells with any chance of effecting damage to the tower are only two in number—the Howlett House battery and the new one on the river bank to the right. The latter commenced firing atan unusual elevation about noon, and was shortly joined by Howlett’s. The minute the latter opened with its 200-pounders, it was replied to by our water battery. Capt. Hub- bard, of the Ist Connecticut, who commands here, answered so rapidly and effectively that he soon absorbed the entire attention of en- emy, who continued to shell him for nearly three hours. The fight was visible in all its details from the top of the tower, where Lieut. Amsden, of the Signal Corps, gallantly maintained his po- sition throughout. The firing of Hubbard’s 100-pounders was splendid, andevery timethe moke was observed rising from his batte: the enemy could be seen running from the: guns to their gopher holes and other places of security. Sometimes they retreated with such precipitancy thatthe sponges were left in the guns. The position of the signal officer in the tower was certainly @ peculiar one. He could look right into the muzzles of the enemy’s guns, see every preparation they made to shoot at him, aad Soon, rebrixe shriek ve! the 200 under through the air, apparently only @ pee feet from his head. For a me Pad it would have proved unendurable. The damage to us actually amounted to nothing further than a severe scare to the negro teamsters, who laid the whip unmerci- fully upon their poer unfortunate steeds, and vanished from the scene as rapidly as = ble. With the enemy, however, it was quite different. What material damage wasinflicteed is at present, of course, only Known to them- selves; but after the cessation of the firing their earthworks bore unmistakable evidence of hard usage. Men were busily enn until dark in repairing dam: , and could be seen, with wheelbarrows and shovels, hard at work. Gen. Gibbon, accompanied by Major Read, ‘was at the water throughout the whole of the firing, where, it ‘y had nota safe po- sition, they at least had one that gave the opportunity of witnessing what was going on.
