T.—1860.—X. Persons of sedentary habits troubled with weak- ne 5, laseitude, palpitation of the heart, lack o appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, con- Btipation, A&c., deserve to suffer if they will mo try the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS, which are now recommended by the highest medi- cal authorities, and warranted to produce an im- medias 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 bours. 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 eure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head- ach. 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 circularsand testimonials around each bottle. Beware of imposters. Examine every bettle, Bee that it has D, 8. Barnes’ signature on our pri- vate U.8. Stamp over the cork, with plantation scene, and our firm signature on a fine steel plate ngraving on side label, Bee that our bottle is not refilled with spurious and deleterious stuff. We defy any person to match the taste or character of our goods. Any person pretending to sell Plantation Bitters by the gallon or in bulk, is an imposters Wesellonly inour log cabin bottle. Any person imitating this bottle, or selling any other materia] thercin, whether called Plantation Bitters or not, isacriminal under the U.8, Law, and will beso prosecuted by us, We already haveour eyeontwo parties re-filling our bottles, &c., who willsueceed In getting themselves into close quarters, The demand for Drake’s Plantation Bitters from ladies, clergymen, merchants, &c., is perfectly incredible The simple trial of a bottle is the evideuce we pre- sent of their worth and superiority, They are sold by all respectable druggists, grocers, physicians, hotels, saloons, steamboats and country stores, P.

FROM THE MISSISSIPPI. Threatened Attack on Memphis—A Steamer Fired Into—Successive Arrivals of Refu- gees. Cairo, Oct. 18.—Three steamers have arrived from New Orleans, bringing about sixty balesof cotton. Great excitement prevailed in Memphis on Sunday evening, in consequence of an expected attack on the city by a strong body of Forrest’s force, which is reported to be but a short dis- tance from the city. Every preparation is being made to defend the place. The steamer Julia brought 250 sick soldiers from Baton Rouge and White River for Mound City Hospital. The steamer City of Memphis was fired into from the Missouri shore, fourteen miles below here. Nobody. hart. The steamship Morning Star arrived at New Orleans on the evening of the 10th. It is estimated that, during the past eight months, 10,300 refugees—men, women, and children—have arrived at Memphis, nine hun- dred of whom have been sent to Cairo, being received here by an agent, who provides them with food, shelter, and transportation to any pout north of the Ohio river they may select for their homes. Four hundred and ninety- eight of those received at Memphis were over the age of fourteen, four hundred were under that age. Nearly every steamer from below has a greater or lesser number of this class of persons aboard. General Forrest is reported to have been seen fifty miles back of Paducah on Sunday. THE SURRENDER OF DALTON. NASHVILLE, Oct. 18.—Hood’s army destroyed the railroad for twenty-three miles between Tunnel Hilland Resaca, also between Big Shanty and Allatoona. The rebel commander demanded the surrend- er of Resaca, and threatened death to the gar- rison if the demand was not acceded to. The commander, Colonel Weaver, of the Sth Ohio, refused to surrender. After skirmishing, the rebel force withdrew. The enemy then advanced upon Dalton, which surrendered without a shot being fired, by Colonel Johnson, of the 41th United States col- ored troops, who' could have easily held the townifso disposed. Tunnel Hill was unmolested. From this point Hood went southward. On the road he was confronted by our corps, un- der General Stanley, at Snake Creek Gap, and severe fighting ensued. The result was not attainable. Beauregard is reported as commandant-in- chief of the Army of the Mississippi, Hood be- ing only commander of this Department. General Sherman is watching every move of his antagonist, and important operations are expected soon from that quarter. despatch this morning reports Hood at Somerville. No reinforcements have reached him, and the militia haye nearly deserted. Prominent Hees fl men believe the rebel movements will result disastrously to them. Some rebel force ts reported at Cedar Hill, near Springfield, Tenn., under Holmes. The euszilas have opened a recruiting camp there. FROM NEW ORLEANS. The New Cotton Trade Regulations— Results of General Dana’s Late Raids. Carr), Oct. 17.—The steamer Magenta brings New Orleans date of the 12th. There is some diversity of opinion regarding the practical result of the new trade regulations under which it is understood the Government agent will purchase all the cotton brought across the lines at 25 per cent. below New York prices, allowing sellers to take back one-third of the amount in famuy supplies. The other Lyons, it is inferred, will be paid in green- backs. General Dana’s raids from Natchez, within two weeks previous to the 9th, yielded 1,500 cattle, several hundred horses and mules, several hundred able-bodied negroes, and about a hundred prisoners, and nearly the same number of the enemy were killed.

I read one lately, of a farmer’s wife, who used to delight in prayer meetings, celebrated her children’s birthdays by prayer, and spent whole days in praying. All these are tavorable signs; but before I proe nounced her an eminent Christian, I should like to know whether, previous to her with- drawal from the family circle to pee all day, she made any provision tor the extra labor that her absence would devolye on others or whether Bridget had toskim the miJk and wash the pans, besides cooking, sweeping and dust- ing, or whether the next day went smoothly. I should like to know whether, when a little restless chubby hand upset the gravy boat on the clean table-cloth, she bound herself over to keep the peace; whether in her house cleanli- ness was made subservient to comtort, or comfort to cleanliness; whether she had ever laid down her sewing and took into her arms the half-sick and wholy cross, frettul and miserable four-year-old boy, to charm awa: his unhappinees with a fairy story, oranykin of story, or song, or simple talk; whether she gave her heretical neighbor credit for as much candor, sincerity, truthfulness, earnestness ard unselfisnness in his ie seam as he devel- oped and she recognized in his character of citizen, neighbor and father; whether the de- licious green-pea soup that she sent tothe sick ‘woman next door was the result ofan extra amount made for the purpose, or whether her poor girl dined,per force, that day off cold boiled pork and potatoes; whether she was generally ready tostep into the wagon when it came to the door on Sunday morning, or whether she provoked her husband to wrath by keeping them all waiting. i~ The San Francisco papers stoutly main- tain that: «Ist.
