Persons of sedentary habits troubled with weak- ne 8, lassitude, palpitation of the heart, lack @ appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, con- stipation, &c., deserve to suffer if they willno try the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS, which are now recommended by the highest med!- cal authorities, and warranted to produce an im- mediata beneficial effect, They are exceedingly agreeable, perfecfly pure, and must supercede all other tonics where a healthy, gentle stimyplant 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 tind. They prevent miasmatic andintermittent fevers They purify the breath and acidity of the gtomach. They cure Dyspepsia and Constipation, They cure Diarrhea, Cholera, and Cholera Morbus. They cure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head- ach 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, 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 net refilled with spurious and deleterious stuff. Wedefy 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 We sell only in our eadin bottle, Any person imitating this bottle, or selling any other materia] therein, whether called Plantation Bitters or not, ‘sacriminal under the U.S. Law, and will beso prosecuted by us, We already haveoureyeontwo parties re-filling our bottles, &c., who will succeed in getting themselves into close quarters, The demand for Drake’s Plantation Bitters from os, olergymen, merchants, &c., is perfectly incredible The simple trial of a bottle is the evideuce we pre- nt of their worth and superiority, They aresola by all respeetable druggists, grocers, physicians, hotels, saloons, steamboats and eountry stores, P.

THE BATTLE AT CEDAR CREEK. ME AT CED Additt 1 Particelars. A correspondent of the New York writing trom General Sewanee el ted ters on the Ivth, fui bes some interesting de. tails of the batt’e of Oedar Creek, nor included ip the official reports heretofore published - Shortly before UP this morniog, while the Army of the S! ndoah, dreamiess of dan. ger was soundly sieeping, @ feint picket assauit was mace on our right. A rapid and continuvus discharge of sentinel Teuskels extended from thencealong our whole front toward the left, when suddenly. with scarcely A moments warning, tne rel infan- try, Massed there the night before, advanced Spainst General Orook’s position in solid col- Bmrs, pouring in a fierce fre on flank and front. Only a portion of our troops manned the breastworks when the assault commenced. + was co energetic and deadly as to break the ool at once. e men of both divisions were swept from at breastworks, into which the enemy come Grice ,iike & sea, swarming on, yelling, 7iving all before them; they entered the en- campments in rear of the works where soldiers, ccarcely awakened, were actually rising {rom their blankets. To save the ariitiery tah breastworks became a desperate object when the assanit was first discovered, but Keeeireaes of the ground rendered thie next to impossible. " Battery B, 6th Penusylvani:, gix guns, were captured entire By supernuman efforts all but one gun of the Sth reguiar battery were saved, leaving seyen guns im the hands of the enemy In the meanwhile the latter had sti aq. Vanced, completely tearing the left flank of the army and were nearing the pike on the heights above. Tht whole army was by this time aroused, wagons, ambulances, and artillery were making for the rear. The 19th corps, which had stood firm daring the assault on Crook, now found itself con- fronted by the 2¢ diviston of the enemy, which had moved up the pike and attacked it fiercely in iront and flank with musketry and artillery. Colonel McCauley’s brigade, of the 2d division, on the left, swung ont of its position in front to receive the flank fire of the foe. The assanit increased in fierceness. The whole division reformed itself to meet the shock. The rebels advancing mounted the breastworks in its front, and with withering volleys forced it back in retreat. The entire 19th corps, abandoning all its works, now fought retreating aud partially broken. The scevery of the field at this junc- ture was fairly appalling. The left of thearmy eompletely turned, half the army of Western Virginia flying in dismay through the fog, its camps, and the greater part of its camp mate- rial, in possession of the enemy, the remnant, together with part of the provisional division and Colonel Kitching, which had been camped in the rear, fighting still for the possession of the pike. The Nineteenth corps fighting more or less stubbornly, failing back and constantly losipg in stragglers, the entire country about Middletown and beyond, in rear, poluted with a demoralized solaiery; the crack of rebel mus- ketry, Sweeping farther up on the left toward Middletown; hurrying wagons, ambulances, caissons: the hiss and explosion of the enemy’s shells from batteries planted in frontof the 19th corps; the appearance of deieat, impending dis- most every where, might have shook the hope of fanaticism itself. General Wright, with whom it was lett to organizea pian which should change this dismal aspect of things, Was nota whit discouraged. The moment that the Army of Western Vir- ginia and the Nineteenth Corps were found to be definitely falling back, went an order to a Jegion that never yet, on any field, had failed to achieye the possible. The Sixth Corps on the right was ordered to change front, swing afround, and stem the torrent. Scarcely a Minute elapsed when its columns were seen moving majestically by the lef: flank straight into the heartof the conflict. Opening a mo- ment tor the passage of stragglers, its line closing up again before the assaults that still bad not been stayed, but like willow withes, as the tempest struck it, did not break. Fora moment at least the career of the rebels in the center wes broughttoapause. The artillery of the cerps unlimbering close to the rear thundered its answer to their shells. This brilliant movement could not, however, check the movement of the foe on the left. Some of their cavalry had already pene- trated into Middletown, capturing a portion of Gen. Crook’s ambulance train, and it is re- ported, seriously wounding Col. Thoburn, of the Second division of that command. Their intantry bad swung round, and were just pos- sessing the pike above Merritt's, Powers’s, and Custer’s divisions of cavalry were withdrawn from the right and sent to stem this disastrous advance. After the check of the enemy in the centre, the lines of the Sixth and Nineteenth Corps were reformed—the Sixth on the left, the Nineteenth on the right of that. It was found necessary to withdraw the whole line some distance in order to connect with the cavalry, who were just advancing to drive the enemy from the pike on the left, and bold the field at that point. This retr movement was accomplished without loss. The enemy followed it up closely and venge- fully. Their bullets rained upon the artillery, killing off horses and men, and embarrassing the attempt of the artillerymen to move their guns totherear. The guns were fought splen- didly—tfought everywhere until the jast mo- ment, when it wes found they could not be remeved. Two of Capt. Stevens’ guns were lost, two of Lamb's, one of McKnight’s and two of Adams’s. Capt. Adams, with @ corpo- Tal and man, stood by their piece when all other support had left, and until every horse ‘was shot and the corporal and man were shot beside him He was then forced to retire. Col. Tompkins, chief of artillery, while assisting to remove one of the guns of Cowan’s battery, was slightly wounded by a musket ball. The infantry were also suffering heayily, particu. larly in officers. When the lines had reached a crest just to the right and rear of Middletown, where @ second stand was made, and when two teryfic charges of the enemy were repulsed, nearly every field officer in the First Division of the Sixth Corps was wounded. (en. Ricketts, commanding the corps, haa been so badly wounded that he was forced to leave the field. Gen. Bidwell, commanding the 2d Brigade 2d Division, was mortally wounded bya shell, which tore Bis left shoulder to pieces and shat- tered the left arm of Capt. Orr, one of his aides. Col. Hamlin, commanding the Ist bri- gade, (Upton’s) Ist division, was wounded in two places, through the thigh and shoulder, butdid not leave the field until afternoon. Gen. Getty, commanding the 2d division, had ahorseshot under him. Col. Penrose, com- manding the Jersey brigade, was badly wound- ed in the right arm. Col Erpnborar, of the 65th New York, had been killed. Col. Camp- bell, ot the 15th Jersey, wounded. Maj. Bow- men, of the same regiment killed. General Wright, commanding the army, had been slightly wounded in the chin by a bullet. The 19th corps had also suffered severely. The battle line of the infantry was reformed on the crest alluded to, just after Gen. Torbert, with the cavalry, had swept on the left, pitch- ing into the enemy in that direction off the pike, establishing his line in conjunction with it, and holding his own against some of the fiercest shelling that was ever showered on devoted soldiers. At this time, about 10 a.m., although the appearance of things in the rear WaAs still not that generally seen in the rear of & victorious army, and although an appear- ance of retreat prevailed on some portions of the Jines, in front, the army had for the first ume during the day so far won a victory over its opening disasters as to have disposed a con- sistent and wieldy front towards its foe, hold- ing its own in the main against further attack. The results of the contest were otherwise gloomy. We had been surprised and driven out ot asplendid position; had lost multiply- ingly in prisoners; bad lost twenty-four pieces of artillery. thirty-four ambulances, including all the medical wagons and medical supplies of the 19th corps, and several headquarter wagons. We had yielded more than two miles of the battle-field to the enemy; many of our finest officers were killed and disabled. and the killed and wounded were thick around. Alull. The enemy, relinquishing his attack, contented himeelf with a lively use of artillery. At this moment a faint cheer echoed along the line in the rear. General Sheridan, who had Tidden posthaste from Winchester, was ap- proaching. His appearance created wild en- thusiasm. Beginning ct the left of the line, he rode along the whole front of the army, waving bis hatamid uproarious cheers. Retreat was stopped in an instant from that time till three p.m. Every nerve was strained to get the army into an offensive position, and at3 o’clk the whole army, the Sixth corps in the centre, the Nineteenth corps on the right, Urook’s com- mand on the left, Merritt’scavairy divisionon the extreme left,Custer’s division on theextreme right. made @ magnificent resistless charge, which swept the enemy off the face of the earth before it every where. The enemy had actually begun to throw up breastworks, and was preparing to ge. into camp, when this charge was made. He was driven back at a donble-quick through Middle- town, across Cedar run, wnere he came from, on8 mas thence pursued by our cavalry rough and beyond Stras z= Fate -thtee ciscam of aptiltery, some guns taken from us during the day, were captured at Strasburg; also, over one hundred wagons and ambulances, and caissops innumerable.
