<Boerhave's Holland Bitters.—The Philadelphia Argus, in speaking of the late exhibition held in that city by the Franklin Institute, says: "In noticing medicines, we are always extremely cautious, unless satisfied of the merits of the article. Among those exhibited is the celebrated Holland Bitters. This medicine has been extensively introduced into every State in the Union, and into the Canadian Provinces, principally within the last two years. The exhibition shows testimonials in every language known in America, among which we notice one from the late Hon. John 4. Clayton, of Delaware." " Dyspepsia, Headache, and Indigestion, by which al! persons are more or less affected, can usually be cared by taking moderate exercise, wholesome food, and a dose of Boerhave's Holland Bitters one htnr before eacb meal."

a Diabolical act. Hudson, Mo., Sept. 6. Abe Hager, baggage master on the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad, furnishes to the St. Louis Democrat the following account of a diabolical outrage on that road, day before yesterday : A passenger express train, bound west, on the 3d inst, was thrown into Platte River. The timbers of the east end of the bridge over that stream having been burned nearly through, the entire train went down, the engine turning over, and the baggage, mail,, and two passenger cars piled Jn top. The passenger coaches were completely smashed, and I waa the only one on tbe train that escaped unhurt. After getting ont of the baggage car, I commenced taking the passengers that were not killed from the wreck. Conductor S. C. Cutler died in a few minutes. Frank. Clark, engineer, had one leg completely twisted and jammed into strings. He also died in a few min utes. Martin Field, mail agent, Charles Moore, fireman, and J. Fox, brakeman, were killed. Among the wounded were Mr. Medill, 3on of Dr. Medill, of Ohio, and his wife, both badly injured. I could not learn the Dames of all tbe passengers. I went to St. Joseph, got an engine, physicians, and other necessaries for the wounded, and got back to the wreck at 3 o'clock a. m. Tbe greatest excitement prevails in St. Joseph in regard to idis intamous outrage. Hudson, Mo., Sept. 6. The following additionel account of tbe terrible disaster on the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad is furnished by the St. Louis Republican : The catastrophe occurred at Little Platte bridge, nine miles east of St. Joseph. The bridge was a substantial work of 160 feet span and about 35 feet above the river.- -The timbers of the bridge had been burnt underneath the track until they could sustain but little more than their own weight, and the fire was then extinguished, leaving the bridge a mere shell. The train, with from 85 to 100 passengers on board, including women and children, reached the river at 11 o'clock at night, and the bridge looking secure, the train moved on, but no sooner had the locomotive measured its length upon the bridge, than some 40 or 60 yards of the structure gave way, precipitating tbe entire train into the river. All the seats in tbe passenger coaches were torn and shaved in front, carrying men, women add children in a promiscuous heap down the declivity, and burying them amoDg the crushed timbers or throwing them out of the cars through the broken sides. Jagged pieces of flooring impaled some : some were mangled by the machinery tearing through the timbers ; several were caught between planks, pressing together like a vipe ; others ware struck by parts of iue rooi, ua n came aown with mighty force ; still others were cut with pieces of glass, while wounds, and blood, and agony, prevailed all over the frightful scene, and shrieks of pain were mingled with cries of terror. In this way the two last cars of the train went down; pitching the passengers into the wreck, or throwing them into the water, which at this point is about a foot and a half deep. Only three persons, Mr. J- W- Parker, Snp't of the U. S. Express, Mr. Marrs, Mil Aeent and Mr. Hagar, to the were able to afford any assistance Bunerers, tne remainaer ot tnem who were not killed outright being so disabled as to be helpless. After doing all that was possible for those requiring immediate attendance, Mr. Hagar, at midnight, left the wreck to go to St. Joseph for medical and other assistance. Mr. Hagar walked five miles of the way, when he found a hand car upon which be proceeded the remainder of the journey. Two yards west of the bridge he discerned a heavy oak railroad tie strapped across the track, and two miles further on he found the tressel work over a small stream which, however, had not as yet been so badly burnt that trains could not pass over it, or could not be easily extinguished. Arriving at St. Joseph, the alarm was soon spread throughout the city, and although it was 1 o'clock at night, 76 men, including physicians in the neighborhood, quickly volunteered their services, and at half past 3 o clock a train fuJy equipped with medical stores and other necessaries, was at the scene ofdisaste :. The wounded had all emerged from th'e wreck, and were lying upon the banks and upon a sand bar in tbe river. Se7epteen dead bodies were recovered, and it is believed this number embraced all who were killed. Up to that time two of the wounded were so badly mangled that it was not expected they wonld survive till morning, while many others were dangerously wounded, and wonld have to be well taken care of to recover. Many who will escape with tbeir Uvea, will be maimed and crippled. Mr, Hagar, our informant, did not remain to finish tbe embarkation of tbe wounded to St. Joseph, but was dispatched to Brookfield east of the bridge for another train to go to the wreck, when he left, the names of the wounded were being taken down, and also such of the dead as bad papers or other articles about them by : which they could be identified. Fifteen j miles east of the Platte river, Mr. Hagar found another bridge, over Smith's branch, a'most entirely burned, havinz been fired after the train passed west, thus preventing assistance being sent from the East. Lieut. Shaw, of the 1st Kansas regiment, was killed, and Mr. Lownesburg and Sidney Olark were wounded, which are the only additional names of those injured we have at present. ACCOUNT OF SKIRMISH. Montgomery Co., Md., Sept. 2. At tbe last advices from Leesburg, there was supposed to be about 7,000 rebel troops there. The entrenchments at the junction of the Little Falls Boad, with the Alexandria and Leesburg Turnpike are strong. Nearlv all the negroes in the Northern part of Fairfax county are employed on the works above Leesburg. There are no large bodies of rebels, but their pickets line the shore and guard the Forts and Ferries. . An eye witness states that the affair at Conrad's Ferry a week ago, wa3 as follows : A party of Union scouts crossed tbe river and took several prisoners, arms, and four horses. On reaching the river on their return they were attacked and compelled to let tbeir prisoners go. The next day a battery appeared opposite our entrenchments and commenced shelling us. We having no artillery at tbe time, our men responded with muskets and rifles. On the arrival of our battery the rebels soon beat a retreat. Three days subsequent to the above, a large camp of secessionists was discovered to be in range of our rifled batteries and near Leesburg. An active bombardment caused the rebels to leave their quarters and go a mile further from the river. Our artillerists say they threw shells from their rifled guns over and beyond the town of LeesIndianapolis, Sept. 6. Ex-Governor Wright, Ex-Minister to Berlin, had an enthusiastic reception in this city. In re sponse to a serenade, be made a straight-out Uniaa speech, advocatin war to the kr"

NEW YORK SPECIALS. HERALD'S D1SPATCH. Washington, Sept. 6th. The capture of Fort Hatteras . and. its dependencies has spread alarm throughout the Carolinas. The regiments from South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, hurrying to the Potomac, have been stopped on the way and sent to Newbuun, under the impression that an immediate attack is contemplated on the headquarters of the rebel pirates.

Loyal citizens tore down tbe secession flags. On the arrival of our troops, Gen. Grant took possession of the telegraph office, railroad depot, aad marine hospital. He found large quantities of complete rations, and leather for the Southern army. The following proclamation was issued : I have come among you not as an enemy, but your friend ; and, fellow-citizens, not to injure and annoy you, but to respect, defend, and enforce the rights of all loyal citizens.

I have nothing to do with opinions. I shall deal only with armed rebellion, its aidersand abettors. You can pursue .your usual avocations without fear. The strong arm of the government is here to protect its friends and punish only its enemies. Whenever it is manifest that you are able to defend yourselves and maintain the authority of your government, and protect the riehts of loyal citizens, I shall withdraw the forces under my command. (Signed) D. S. GRANT, Brig. General Commanding. Lexington, Mo., Sept. 2. The following account of the events in this citv is fur nished the St. Louis Republican: Lkxinotgn, Mo., Sept. 6. A large secession force surrounded this town on both sides of tbe river, and arreated a number of the Union men, among them Ex-Governor King, Judge Rylands and Wm. S. Fields. On Friday of last wee', at the instance of the gentlemen above named, a flag of truce was sent, whiob resulted in a conference between Col. Rout, General Reid and Capt. Shelby on the rebel side, and Maj. Becker, Capt. Graham and Lieut. Brown on the federal Bide. The rebels de manded the unconditional surrender of the fort, which was flatly refused. During the investment of the town by the secessionists, a good de.-l of skirmishing took place in the streets of the city, and in the woods on both sides of the river. The federal troops destroyed the ferry houses on the north side of the river, wbere the fight occurred between a small force under Lieut. Brown, and the rebels, in which four or five of tbe latter were killed, and a number wounded. Several of Lieut. Brown's men were wounded, and one mortally. Thursday, Lieut. Brown, with 20 men, were attacked in the street by a com- I pany of secessionists, under Capt. Witherow. in which the latter were mmnlntulD routed, and Capt. Witherow taken-prisoner, after being severely wounded by Brown. On Friday all further attempts to reduce the place were abandoned. Col. Rout retreated with his wounded toward Independence, Col. Reid, going toward Fort Scott, leaving Capt Shelby, with about 600 men, at bis old rendezvous on Laboa Creek, eight miles east of Lexington, and a considerable secession force in the bottom between Lexington and Richmond. The forces thus left have cut off all mail communication. Col. Reid took with him Kik, Rjland, Field, and other prisoners. The whole loss in all the fighting, on the rebel side, was eight killed, besides tbe wonnded, and on tbe federal situ one mortally and seven slightly wounded. The federal troops burnt a warehouse and several railroad buildings wbere the rebels bad encamped on the other side of the river. Nkw York, Sept. 5. Flora Temple was seized yestarday on the race course by the U. S. Marshal, as the property of a Baltimore secessionist. She had just been beaten in four straight heats by Ethan Allen. A secession flag was found yesterday, stored on board the U. S. transport Marion. The Marion was under charter by the Government, and bad just been seized as the property, in part, of secessionists.

Attacks are to be made at Ocoquokon, and above at iidward Molan's, or the White House Jerry. Tbe rebels have plenty of nrovis ions and whisky. Families and stores have, uuwever, oeen entirely drained of salt, su gar, ana conee. No money can purchase mese necessaries. Men frequently come down to the river, and iu piteous terms oeggea their Maryland neighboors for a pittance of these articles. Cows and cattle are suffering for salt. A scanty supply is sometimes obtained from fish brine, but in is is very rare. The rebels yesterday arrested five men nearly opposite this town. Tbey were four sons, who had deserted the rebel army, and they, together with their aged father as a hostage, were dragged back to the army. Lours v ills, Sept. 6. The Mobile Register says Gen. Bragg has been transferred from Pensacola to Accomac and is succeeded in command by Brig. Gen. Emerson, of Ncrth Carolina. Richmond advices state that 102 prieonerners reached there yesterday afternoon. They were taken by Floyd near Gaullev Bridge last week. One hundred of them belong to the 7th Ohio regiment. About 200 federal prisoners are now there. The weather in the mountains is quite cool, and winter clothing is absolutely needed by the soldiers. An engineer just arrived at Richmond says a serious accident occurred on the railroad near Abbington. The Aiken Guards of the 14th, Louis Ru?'s, had one killed and 13 wonnded. Congress was in session about two hours on the 3d inst., and adjourned to the 3d Monday in November. The Mobile Tribnno of the 2d states where some men were employed in getting the dry dock ready to be raised, tney were tired unon from Fnrt Pickens, first with a blank cartridge, then witn a round shot, and afterward with shells ; the last came near doing damage, and the men speedily left. The Tribune indignantly demands, " Is not this outrage an act of war?" Washington, Sapt. G. The War Department issued orders to Gen. Wood, permnently locating him at Hatteras Inlet. The Pension Bureau has already commenced pensioning soldiers wounded in the present war. The new steamer Pensacola leaves in a few days for New York. Com. Stringbam returns at once to the fleet. Gov. Curtin will be Instructed to commission all regiments now in tbe field, and those authorized to be raised, giving them the benefit of the appropriation, the Government clothing and organizing them.

One of our soldiers will be shot next Monday for sleeping on bis post. FROM FORT MONROE. Fort Monroe, Sept. 5. The Monticello aud Harriet Lane arrived from Hatteras Inlet this morning.
