I do thts the more readily in regard to Ilonfiand's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, of this city, iiecause I was prejudiced against them fir many years, under the impression that they were chiefly an alcohi lie mixture. I am indebted to my friend. Bobert Shoemaker. Esq.. for the removal of this prejudice by proper tests, and for encmieaeemeiit to try them, when suffering from great and 1 one continued debility. The use of three bottles of these bitters at the becinningof the present year, was followed by evident relb'f and restoration to a ilegreeof bodily and men tal viaorwmch I had not felt for six months before, and had lnvst dospmrel of reffaininc. 1 therefore thauk God and my friend for directing me to the use of them.

In the distribution of opportunities none are more favored than rebels who pretend to have recanted. Secession is as rampant as ever it was, though disguised because it is so profitable to be an 'allegiant,' " etc. In proof of these assertions it is alleged that the commander at one of the most im portant points on the river is on other who sent in his resignation to take effect . in the event that Maryland seceded, who has now a eon who is a brigadier in the rebel service, a snn-in-law who is a rebel cavalry general, and whose own sympathies aro entirely ou the side of slavery. A Negro Nobility. "This country will haveno true dignity," said Fred. Douglas, ia a recent speech to the Abolitionists, 4,till the negro is entitled to vote and hold olhce." The nesroes, says Wendell Phillips, arc our ' nobility," and wo must di vide the lands of the South among them, as William the' Conqueror partitioned England ambii'i the Norman Lords. All that is very line "dignity and nobility' but Sambo wants something practicable, .and the Administration proposes to give it to him. We quote an illustrative incident: 'The colored people of Philadelphia are before the War Department for contracts for Quartermaster's supplies. David Browserand Jacob C. White had an interview with Secretary Stanton on Friday, and offered to engage to deliver in thirty-six and ninety days, shirts, drawers, haversacks and blouses, to the extent of SO.OuO of either. They received assurances that the colored people should be placed hereafter upon the same footing with whites, in the matter cf contracts." "Contracts," that is the word in which lies the real patent of nobility then it is "dignity!" When the llavtian monarchy was form ed, the Wack chiefs took the titles of Duke of Lemonade, Count Marmalade and the Mar quis of Molasses! We see looming in the i distance our new nobility Sir Sambo Shod-j dy, Count Cuflee Codfish and the Marquis of Mulemeat,. The advantage of a negro no bility is, that it is distinguishable through all generations. The old aristocracy of Europe is corrupted by misalliances, and it is impossible to distinguish by mere looks the heir of a peer from the progeny of a peasant With our African nobility the pure breed will always show itself, and the slightest admixture of the interior white race will be manifest in the lineaments and complexion. And why should not General Gorilla. when peace comes, replace stars on his shoulders, with the insignia of nobility? The refiublic is proved a farce the white race a ailttre. Let them give way to the black notoriety of the future. Beastly Conduct. We are told by a friend who lately made a trip to St. Louis by rail, that on the Chicago and St Louis road, on his passage down, an outrage took place almost tco brutal to be believed. Some twenty-five or thirty sol- . . i . ... aiers were seated in tne car in wnich were four or five citizens and a young woman. Soon after the train left Bloomington the soldiers began to take improper liberties with the gtrl, which she repelled as much as possible. At the first station below Bloomington. the conductor succeeded in getting her off the cars, but one of the soldiers went off with her, and, waiting until the train started, lifted her on board again, and taking heron his lap, proceeded to expose her person in the most indecent manner, and conducting in such a beastly manner as wholly to preclude the possibility ot a recital ot the acts. i .. i actions he was joined by several other soldiers. The conductor did not dare to re monstrate, and a Major and ataptain, who were present and witnessed the disgraceful
proceeaing, a.a not seem to mm u as their j b, A party of black legs were at a co iTe duty to interfere. This conduct . continued iroom at Epsom, during the races, dining at until the train arrived at Springfield, where ! the same time. A gentleman present said, the soldiers and their Ticuni left Ptondiin.l.-.mr.

They stripped ineof evervnnd one big f.liow $:ae me such a kick as to take me off my feet, with the remark that if they ever caught mo in tha Confederacy again with so little money they'd han me." t f Edward III, King of England, was startled on his throne, ait I had hi relentless grasp weakened by the published words of a young 1 rench gal, a saint, ana ideal and sublime enthusiast, who cried forth, "I can never see the blood of Frenchmen flow with out weeping.' In hundreos of thousands of homes in the United States there is to-day a sweet, pure and saintly prayer gitiug forth that this wicked shedding of American blood may cease, ludced from every pure heart in the land these words are felt if not ulterod : "I ca'n never see the blood of an American flow without weeping." Give this feeling time and it.will save our country. Already it has commenced to undermine the cruel arsenal of war. If the' President's nature werenota coatof mail against all humane and virtuous impressions, he would, even now, feel this vague pulsation, this budding patriotism, thisde p and passionate hatred of war, which will surely, at last, overthrow his party, and drive him and a'l his war supporters out cf a land they have soakd with the blood of theircountrymen. Let these holy words be placed as motto at the head of newspaper let them be painted upon banners let them be sung in songs let them be spoken in parlors,'and repeated everywhere at the corner of the streets : "I can never see the blood of an American flow without weeping." And these other words : "I can never see an Abolitionist without saying, there goes tha cause of my country's ruin !!" Speak these words aloud, all ve true men and true women! They shall be heard as the beatings of your country's heart Old Guard. National Debt. The best definition of a National debt is to be found in "The Tin Trumpet," where it is most aptly defined. "Mortgaging the property of our posterity, that we may the better destroy that of our cotcmporaries discounting lor the fature, for the purpose ot tormenting the present exhausting the resources of many ages, that .i- i , . - me pugnacity ana wean amoition oi our own may be rendered the more extensively mischievous.' e commend this definition to those who conceive a national debt to be a national blessing. EON- A humorous chap gives the following account of the manner in which he was fined ten dollars by a police magistrate in Chi cago lor kicking up a row at a public hall: "The next morning the Judge of the Police Court sent for me. I went down, and he re ceived me cordially. Said he had heard of the wonderful things 1 had accomplished at p,.' tr-n j j . c .
