CORRESPONDENCE.

Politics and other Matters. Petersburg, Ind., Sept, 21, '66. Editors Journal: During this week we have had some fine speeches from Gen. Kimball, Col. Allen, and Maj. Cravens. On Wednesday Gen. Kimball made an extraordinary speech, which was responded to by hearty cheers, especially when he lit into the modern "Moses." At the conc.usion of the speech three hearty c'ieers were given for Gen. Kimball, nd from the few hats that didrit go up, one would suppose that "My Policy" men were very scarce. The General is very popular in Pike, and is a host in himself. Maj. Cravens spoke at night to an anxious audience. The Court House was crammed aud jammed, and many out of doors. The Major illustrates forcibly, and his arguments are convincing. The audience was enthusiastic, and often during the speech the house resounded with cheers. General Kimball was loudly called for, and in a speech of about twentyfive minutes responded in one of his most happy strains. More interest never was manifested than on this occasion. The applause soon amounted to yells. The people are alive to the interest of the contest and the result need not be feared. Already gloom has settled upon our enemies and bright hopes and enthusiasm have taken possession of our people. Let the people of other counties remember that Pike is at work earnestly and energetically. Daniel Voorhees was in town on Wednesday night, and was offoroJ division of time but he would not speak. He had been told by some one that he would be mobbed, but it was a guilty conscience, for our people are willing to listen even to the harangue of such traitors as Voorhees. The Doolittle Copper-Johnsons of this county had a Pow-wow at Winslow on Wednesday, at which place Daniel and Niblack made speeches. Th Cops cam info Petersburg and reported that they had 1500 people present. But lo and behold, when we got a ?rt report there was not three hundred people present, and a majority of them were Republicans. Niblack spoke at Petersburg, on Wednesday last, and was replied to by Col. Allen. And by the way, Niblack was routed horse, foot and dragoon. Niblack said as for the vote about Jeff. Davis, he gave it and didn't care a straw what people say about it. Mr. Donald, of Princeton, addressed the Union Club of this place last night. Mr. D. is an excellent speaker, and would do a vast amount of good were he to enter fully into the canvass. The Cops have got themselves into a beautiful fix about the Postmaster of this plaee. They senllf ard had a crippled soldier appointed and now, as he has his bond filed, he says, when Johnson thinks he is going to vote for the men who shot his leg off, he is badly fooled, and that at the next election he will'cast his vote for the great Union party. Now, I think these, "My Policy Men," are in a bad fix, for they can't well remove a onelegged soldier. So the cause moves on. Pike will be wll represented on the 25th, at Evansville, for there are many soldiers here, and they remember the soldiers' friend. More anon, Eilo. TO FARMERS. T. R. MATTHEWS. W. G. FULLERTClt.

Thse two great specie ics of the Doctor's are fast superceding all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extraordinary cures by Magglel's Pills and Salve have opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency of the (so called) remedies of others, and upon which people have so long blindly depended. Magglel's Pills are not ot the class that are swallowed by the dozen, and of whieh every box full taken creates an absolute necessity for another. One or two of Magglel's Pills suffices to place the bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoyant ! There is no griping and no reaction in the form of constipation. If the liver is affected, its functions are restored; aud if the nervous system is feeble, it is invigorated. This last ?uality makes the medicine very desirable or the wants of delicate females. Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally extinguished by the disinfectant power of Maggiel's Salve. In fact, it is here announced that MaggieVs Bilious, Dyvpeptic and Diarrhoea Pill cure where all others fail. While for Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts and all abrasions of the skin MaggieVs Salve is infallible. Sold by J.
