AFTER MORE THAN TWO YEARS OF A WAR fare scarcely eaualled in the number, magnitude, and fearful carnage of its battles; a warfare in which your courage and fortitude- have Illustrated your coun try, and attracted not only grafttttde at home, but admi ration abroad ; your enemies continue a struggle in which our final triumph must be inevitable. Unduly elated with their-recent successes, they imagine that temporary reverses can quell your spirit or shake your- determina tion, and they are now gathering heavy masses. for a gen eral Invasion in the vain hope that, by a desperate effort, success may at length be reached. , You know too well, my countrymen, what they mean by success. Their malignant rage aims at nothing less than the extermination of yourselves, your wives, and chird ren. They seek to destroy what they cannot plun der. They propose as the spoils of victory, that your homes shall be partitioned among the wretches whose atrocious cruelties have stamped infamy on their Govern ment. They design to incite servile insurrection and light the fires of incendiarism wherever they can reach your homes, and they debauch the inferior race, hitherto docile and contented, by promising indulgence of the vil est passions, as the price of treachery. Conscious of their inability to prevail by legitimate warfare, not daring to make peace lest they should be hurled from their seats of power, the mfen who now rule in Washington refuse even to confer on the subject of putting an end to outrages which disgrace our age, or to listen to a suggestion for conducting the war according to the usages of civiliza tion. Fellow-citizens, no alternative is left you but victory, or subjugation, slavery and the utter ruin of yourselves, your families and your country. The victory is within your reach. You need but stretch forth your hands to grasp it. For this end, all that is necessary is, that those who are celled to the field by every motive that can move the human heart, should promptly repair to the post of duty, should stand by their comrades now in front of the toe, and thus so strengthen the armies oi the Confedera cy as to ensure success. The men now absent from their posts would, if present in the field, suffice to create nume rical equality between our torce and that of the invaders and when with any approach of such equality, have we tailed to be victorious " I believe that but tew ot those absent are actuated by unwillingness to serve their coun try ; but that many nave found it difficult to resist the temptation of a visit to their homes and the ldved ones from whom they have been so long separated ; that oth ers have lett lor temporary attention to their aitairs, writh the intention of returning, and then have shrunk from the consequences of their violation of duty ; that others, again, have left their posts from mere restlessness and desire of change, each quieting the upbraidings of his conscience, by persuading himself that his individual ser vices could have no influence on the general result. These and other causes (although far less disgraceful than the desire to avoid dangea, "or to escape from the sacrifices required by patriotism) are, nevertheless, griev ous faults, and place the cause of our beloved country, and of everything we hold dear, in imminent peril. T re peat that the men who now owe duty to their country, who have been called out and have not yet. reported for duty, or who have absented themselves from their posts, are sufficient in number, to secure us.victory in the strug gle now impending. I call on you, then, my countrymen, to hasten to your camps, in obedience to the dictates of honor and duty, and summon those who have absented themselves with out leave, or who have remained absent beyond the peri od allowed by their furloughs, to repair without delay to their respective commands, and I do hereby declare that I grant a general pardon and amnesty to all officers and men within the Confederacy, now absent without leave, who shall, with the least possible delay, return to their proper posts of duty ; but no excuse will be received for any delay beyond twenty days after the first publication of this proclamation in the State ic which the absentee may be at the date of the publication. This amnesty and Eardon shall extend to all who have been accused, or who ave been convicted and are undergoing seatence for ab sence without leave or desertion, excepting only those who fiave been twice convicted of desertion. Finally, I conjure my country women the wives, moth ers, sisters and daughters of the Confederacy to use their all-powertul influence in aid ot this can, to aaa one crow ning sacrifice to those which their patriotism has so free- iy an,u constantly uuereu un tiuen wuuuj o amui, take care that none who owe service in the field shall be- sheltered at home from the disgrace of having deserted their duty to their families, to their country, and to their God ' . .

Without puffing, they have gained ground by their real value. ,More than five hundered persons are known to have been cured by these Pills. "This excellent family medicine is recommended by the proprietor as good only for diseases of the Liver. His correspondents say that they also cure Billious Rheuma tism, Pneumonia, Chills and Fevers, Billious Fevers, Piles and Worms. They are a perfectly safe medicine. Peter Vaden, Esq., 6f Dinwiddie county, Va., after describing remarkable cures in his family of Billious Rheumatism and Pleurisy, says : "My Doctor's bill has been heretofore from $175 to $200 per year. I have used them these pills for my family, which consists of eigh teen white and colored, and have not called in a Doctor. This is a great saving.. They certainly are the best fami ly medicine ever discovq$ed.'' " Rev. John W. Potter, of Greene county, North Caro lina, had suffered twelve years from a diseased liver, which the physicians had not been able to cure. He says : " I commenced taking the Hepatic Pills with no con fidence in them. They acted like a charm qfi me. From that hour I have improved. I have persevered in their use until now, bv Goft's blessing, I am well and hearty. I had a negro man who, as I believe, was saved from death by a dose of these Pills. My Doctor's bill was an nually from $100 to $200, but I have had no use for a physician sitfbe." Tha great rise in the price of ingredients and the heavy tax on these Pills, compel the proprietor to put them at ' their present prices or quit the manufacture. They are not more profitable to him than when he sold them at lower rates. ' Price: $1:50 a box. For"$15 a dozen boxes will be sent prepaid to any part of the- Confederacy.
