"I was in the hospital a nurse for a long time," said he, and assisted in taking off limbs, and dressing all sorts" of wounds; but the hardest thing 1 ever did was to take my thumb off a man's leg." "Ah!" said I, "how was that?" -Then he told mo. It was a young man who had a severe wound in the thigh. The ball passed completely through, and amputation was necessary. The limb was cut off close up to the body, the arteries taken up, and he seemed to be doing well. Subsequently one of the small arteries sloughed off. An incision was made, and it was again taken up. "It is well it was not the main artery," said the surgeon, as he 1 performed the operation; "he might hare bled to : death before we could have taken it up." But Charley got on finely, and was a favorite with us all. 1 I was passing through the ward pn.e.nigkt, about .midnight, -niirw suddenly, as'I was passing Char ley's bed, he spoke to me: "11 , my leg is bleeding again." I threw back the bed clothes, and the blood spirted in the air. The main artery had sloughed off. Fortunately I knew just what to do, and in an instant I had pressed my thumb on the place and stopped the bleeding. It was so close to the body - that there was barely room for mj- thumb, but I succeeded in keeping it there, and arousing one of the convalescents, sent him for the surgeon, who came in on the run. "I am so thankful, II " unid he, as he Haw me, "that you were up and knew - what to do, for he must have bled to death before I could have got here." But on examination into the case he looked ex cdjngly prions, and sent out for other surgeons. Alt camo who were within reach, and a consulta tion wtis he'd over the poor fellow. One conclu nion was reached by all. There was no place to work save the spot where my thumb was placed; thev could not work under mv thumb, and if I moved it he would bleed to death before the arte ry conld be taken np. There was no way to save his lifo. Poor Charley ! He was very calm when they told him, and requested that his brother, who was in the saute hospital, might be called up. He came and snt down by the bedside, and for throe hours I utood and by the pressure of my 'thumb kept up the life of Charley, while the brothers had their last conversation on earth. It was a strange place . for ibe to bo in, to feel that I had the life of a fel low mortal in my hands, as it were, and stranger yet to feel that an act of mine must cause that life to depart. Loving the poor fellow as I did, it was a hard thoucht: but there was no alternative. The last words were spoken.. t Charley had. ar- J ranged nis uustness onairs, ana sent tender messa ges to absent ones, who little dreamed huw near their loved one stood to the grave. The tears fill ed my eyes more than once as I listened to those parting words. All were said and he turned to me: Nw, H , I uesa you had better take off your thumb." "O, Charleyfbow can 1?" I said. "Hut it must be dooe you know," he replied cheer fully. "I thank you very much for your kindness, nd now good bye.1' - ' He turned away his head, I raised my thumb, once more the life current gushed forth, and in 'three minutes :poor Charley was dead. Mark xjie Creatures.-Wc are engaged in a common struggle for a common object and every -man who- throws obstacles in the way of success, should be marked. We have more re spect for the Yankee who fights us than for the Southern citizen who exerts himself to destroy the currency. Ve most cordially endorse the follow ing from an exchange : Mark them. Once in a while we hear of per sons in various sections of the Confederacy who refuse to receive Confederate Treasury notes. "The man who demands other money than the Gov crnmeat ourrency for what h has to sell, or who refuses to sell at all because he discredits the cur rency, should be classed with the vilest emissa ries, foreign or domestic, which our country has to contend with. He is false to the Confederate cause the worst kind of a tory. He strikes at the vitals of the Confederacy. Yoa may attempt to paliate such conduct by excuses, but excuses for such conduct are mere flimsy pretexts. The currency must be sustained. lie who refuses or undertakes to depreciate it, is virtually aiding and abetting our oppressors, and is a worse enemy to the cause of the South than the most vindictive foe we have elsewhere. If a persou endeavors to injure ns one way, he will another. Any one who refuses to take Confederate currency, will not hes itate to injure us in other wcys, should opportunity offer. No treatment is ISo severe for such a class of individuals.' They are traitors to their country, acd ought to receive the punishment of a traitor. . - , , .Modesty. There is a resistless charm in a - modest demeanor, which is-worth more than all the oTts with whioh designing .women "seek to captivate the opposite sex. ..Meretricious attractions may chance to please to-day; but native excellence, with the simple setting of modesty, will delight to-morrow and next day, and ' so on, without interruption. Moreover, the ' pleasure which we derive from spurious" or shallow charms is almost certainly followed by disgust, when we comeSu see 'that we have been imposed " upon.

Don't delay, as we are anxious to get our business settled up. J. C. BURROUGHS. June 3, 1862. tf ,.. THE SOUTHERN This combination of medicines was first prepared by the proprietor in 1825, when he wa$ 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 years of age and in dis charge of active professional duties. Their good ef fects upon others created such a demand for them that he was compelled to desist from supplying them gratuitously. Thev are not 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 Fever, 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 "Dyspepsia" i3 our national disease. However this may be, it caused me long and severe suffering. Providentially a friend furnished me with ft w boxes of the "Hepatic Pills," and the use of them has perfected a cure. In ray family they have 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."' (jOTj. John Wright, of Goldsboro', N. C, (Aug. 14, lb62.) says: "I have used ihe 'Southern Hepatic Pills' in my familr here and also en 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 in her extremity I was induced to try the 'Hepatic Pills. They were given according to directions, and she is now well, entirely restored by them. A similar case occurred among my servants in Alabama. For liver aud lung diseases I have perfect conGdence iu them." Full directions and other certiircates will be found on the wrapper of each box. The gretft rise in 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. Aidress GEORGE W. DEEMS, Wilson, N. C. - For sale- in Charlotte, N. C, by F.
