- For the Wettern Democrat.
TO BBOTHEB BENNIE.
The subject of these lines was a sprightly and in
teresting child of this county, who died a few weeks
r.?o, aged onJy ten years. His ideas pf Heaven were
reniarkabk for one of his age. His mind was clear
making these sweet allusions up to a few hours of his
uoath.J .
As fond mother lean'd O'er the dying bed
Of her last fond one so dear,
His sparkling eye a saintly lustre shed,
As though, now, heaven was near.
"Mother, oh Mother dear, I'm going home,"
Said this saintly dying child;
"Dear Willie. is there, too; bh, will you come
Do, and see us after awhile.
"Weep no more, I'm not now afraid to die;
Good children to Jesus go;
And now why should I be afraid, why, why?
This you taught me long ago."
With pf-le quivering lips he faintly said :
"Say me that little prayer
That first nightly on your knees I prayed!
Then, oh say you'll meet me there."
"Mother, I'm weary, let me sleep awhile:"
Then folded across his brea3t
His tiny hands, and with angelic smile
He gently sank to rest.
' Though far away, sister kissed thee for me,
Dear lovely, dying cnild;
Oh, that I too had been there to see
And share thy sweet angelic smile.
Here, cheerlessly, while Lwearily pace
The long lone night vigils by
Fond memory brings back thy sweet face
And dark hazel sparkling eye.
When I think that these I'll no niore behold,
Upheaves the unbidden sigh,
Then something within whispers to my soul:
'It's far better thus to die.'
No, dear Brother, we'll weep no more for thee,
Though from Mother's boiotn torn;
We'll take back the thought, and let you be
A cherub in Jesus' own.

Marauders Again. On Wednesday
. last, some sixty of the tories from l aurel, C,
came down into this county, on the south side of
Chucky ltiver, and robbed Lewis Click of six
hundred pounds of bacon and three sacks of flour.
They also "plundered the house of John Click,
. but we did not learn the extent of their robbery at
the latter place. They remained in the vicinity
of Click's, in eight of his house, until next day,
cooking and eating the provisions that they hd
stolen.
Thev swear vencreance airaiost every man in
that whole section of country, and declare that
they are goiti to take anything that they want.
But a few nights bince they robbed .the Louse of
Lawson White, in this county, taking some three
buodred dollars in money, and other valuables.
It is certainly time for those having authority,
to begin to think that there l soniefhing in the
throats of this tory band. The families of Greene
county, who live near the mountain, are very
much alarmed, for they know not what hour will
b'4 their turn to suffer from these out-laws.

Yvll Directions for
t'nder all conditions.
Treating the Hair
-When the hair grows
foantily, naturally, the following lotion may be
u.-ed three or four times a week, in the morning :
Eau de
Cologne,
two ounces; tincture of
rantharides, two drachms; oil of rosemary and oil
of lavender, of each ten drops. When the hair
iu:s become thin from sickness, use the following
receipt: Mix equal parts of olive oil and spirits
of rosemary, add a few drops of oil of nutmeg, and
anoint the head very sparingly before going to
bod. . While using either of the two preceding
receipts, use the ensuing ones also: Pahua Christi
oil, three jounces; oil of lavender, one drachm.
Apply every evening. When actual baldness is
commencing, use the following pomade : Macerate
a drachm of powdered cantharides in an ounce of
spirits of wiue. Shake it well during a fortnight,
and then filter. Take ten parts of this tincture,
and rub it with ninety parts of cold lard. Add a
little essence of berganiot, or any other scent.
Rub this pomade well into the head, night and
morning. In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred,
this application, if continued, will restore the hair.
When the hair, after being naturally luxuriant,
begins to grow thin, without actually coming out
in particles, use the following receipt : Take of
extract of yellow Peruvian bark, fifteen grains;
extract of rhatany root, eight grains; extract of
burdoch root and oil of nutmegs, (fixed,.) of each,
two drachms, camphor dissolved with spirits of
wine fifteen grains; beef marrow, two ounces; best
olive oil, one ounce; citron juice, half a drachm;
aromatic essential oil, as much as sufficient to
render it fragrant; mix, and make into an ointment.
Two drachms of bergamot and a few drops of otto
of roses would suflicc. This is to be used
morning.
The above remedies might put hair on the head,
and they might take it off what will enre some will
kill others.
The Value of the Conscription Act. Tha
Secretary of War in his official report to Congress
of the Military operations of the Confederate
States, for the year 1862, takes occasion to refer
to the first conscription act of Congress as having
wrotightour Salvation from destruction or infamous
thraldom, and says that if it could have been
sooner adopted, or more speedily and thoroughly
executed, it may well be doubted whether'the
first act alone might not ' have been sufficient to'
extort from our obdurate toes, in their own capital,
or on their own conquered soil, permanent peace
and independence. He declares that at the

THE SOUTHERN
Hepatic IIP 11 3.
This -combination of medicines was first prepared by
the proprietor in 1825, when he was pronounced by
three eminent physicians in a Southern city as in an
advanced stage of Consumption. These pills cured
him. He is -now over seventy yiirs of age and in dis
charge of active professional duties. Their good ef
fects upon others created such a demand for them that
he wa compelled to desist from' supplying them gratu
itously. They are xot' recommended by the proprietor as
good for all diseases, but only such as arises from
DISORDERS OF THE LIVER. Many persons have
testified to their good effects ia Chills and Fevers, Bil
ious Fevor, Yellow Fever, Pneumonia, Dyspepsia, &c,
&c. They are an excellent FAMILY MEDICINE.
Read the following :
. S. D. Wallace, Esq., Treasurer of the Wilmington
and Weldon Rail Road, (Aug. 30, 1862,) says : "It has
been said that "Dvspkpsia" i3 our national disease.
Ilowever this may be, it caused me long and severe
suffering. Providentially a friend furnished me with a
few boxes of the "Hepatic Pills," and the use of them
has perfected a cure. In my family they bavq been
used frequently with eminent success. Among my ac
quaintances, many cases originating from diseased
liver, have been relieved and cured by them. I regard
them as an invaluable medicine, and take pleasure in
forwarding this voluntary tribute."
Col. John Wrigut, of Goldsboro', N. C, (Aug. 14,
1862,) says: "I have used the 'Southern Hepatic Pills'
in my family here and also on my plantation in Ala
bama, and always with success. I have a valuable
servant girl who had been a long time under treatment
for consumption, without receiving any benefit. Al
most iu her extremity I was induced to try the 'Hepatic
Pills.' They were given according to directions, and
she is new well, entirely restored by them. A similar
case occurred among my servants in Alabama. For
liver and lung diseases I have perfect confidence iu
them."
Full directiens and other certificates will be found
on the wrapper of each box. ,
The great rise m the price of medicines, compels the
proprietor to put these pills at 50 cents a box. As it
may soon not be possible to procure all the ingredi
ents, it would be well for the afflicted to order them at
once. "
From the price above stated; a liberal discount will
be made to dealers as long as the pills can be furnished.
