AD THE FOLLOVVlNO:—Rov’d John W. Potter
(N. c ) says:
“For twelve years 1 was a great salterer. My liver
was diseased 1 lost my flesh and Htrength, and my
>i«ktn seemed changed iu its cclor by the bile with wiaicn
ni'f s^st«m wa« overchik^ed. 1 beoafne subject to fre
quent and violent attacks Of bilious oolic, every atiauk
le-ivinj me weakrr than its predecMSwr .o- ifaepbyBi'
ci^ns bai beeti able to paioh me op ■ tittle, but uty
j health was in a deplorable s*ate. 1 had taken patent
medicines until 1 wan tired uf then». vviibout energy
or coojfort, 1 was barely able to go about a liitie. At
length 1 yielded no the earnest p^euasi^n oi friend
anii commenced taking the HEPATIC P1LL.^ with no
eonndenoe in them They acted like a cn-ti-oi uu me.
/Vom tAat Aouf I imprurted 1 have perseT; v-’-J in their
use, until now, by tfod’s blessing, i o,n tve/i *:nd htwty.
I had a nogro man wno, aa 1 believed, wt: uaved from
death by a dose of these pills. My Doctor’s bill was
aunually from $li)0 to f2UU, but 1 have had no use for
Ik physician sinoe. 1 oan confidently reoomiwend them
ad a superior family medicine.”
The ingredients of which the “80DTHBRN HEPAT
IC PILLS” are made are so ocatSy as to compel the
‘proprietor to put them at present prioes, which are not
so remoaerative aa wken the pills sol4 for less.

NORTH CAROLINA—GOV VANCE’S 8PEECE.
The old “North State”—God bless her—we
love her notwithatandiDg ahe has nourished with-
io her oonfinca a Uoldea and a few other treason
able coadjutors—prcaenta a proud und defiuit
crest still. The stigma which an insignifioant
number of trembling spirts at home attempted to
fix upon her fair escutcheon, is more than wiped
out by tbe dauntless cour^c of her sons in the
held, and the noble stand of her able and inde
fatigable Governor in her councils.
It is a fact not generally known that a recent
official investigation into the desertions and ab-
sentecidU) of soldiers from the different States com
posing our army, ^ves North Carolina the fairost
record of any. According to the ratio of her
fighting population, she is behind none of bar
aiuterb in tlie number of troops sent to the field,
I and according to the ^ame ratio there have been
lesiB deaortions among uer noble boys.
I North Carolina is fortunate in aufether respect.
I She has a Gov«rnir worthy of her heroio soldiery;
and this is, perhaps, the highest compliment we
pay Jtita. vVith bis heart and soul earo-
eatly wniiMted in the cause, he has worked day
and night for its advancement He has not sig-
naliziMi liifl admifiistratiou by the frequent issu
ance ot patriotic and high sounding proolamations,
like many of our Southern Executives, but let
us see what he has done. It is a notorious fact
that the troops of North Carolina are better .
cluthcd than those frutc any State iu tbe Con-
lederacy. Aud tluH it so because the Executive
of tbe Slate has attended to the matter himself.
Wheu Governor Vance was tint elected there
were nut live hundred ^uits of clothing tc be
found in the i}uarterma»ter’s department of the
State. Now there are sixty thousand suits of
ready made clothi^ awaiting tbe needs of North
C'aroliua troops. There are also thirty thousand
blankets, shoes, kc. In tact, the Governor tells
us hi his speech that his ^'boys have so many
go^ clothes that they trade them ior liquor some
times.’' .All this has been accomplished through
tbe indefatigable energy of Gov. Vance, without
any assistance wbatffrer fiom the Confederate
States government. What other Executive has
done half so well?
Gov V'ance has further endeared himseif to all
true patriots of the South by his speech deliver
ed at Wilkcsboro’, N. C., on, the 22d ult.
It is the most apro^n speech we have read
since tbe war coutmenced. It is cheering aud
cheerful—logical and amusing—profound and
witty In short, it is d rare panacea for despon
dency, and cannot fail to interest and relieve the
anxious. The object of its utterance was to dis
courage the scheme oi' a convention entertained
by some malcontents of that State, but il looked
principally to the condition oi the whole country.
We are informed that the speech had a magicai
elfect cn tbe minds of the discontented—that the
convention project was killed as dead as a door nail
by it, and that there was never a"i*etter and more
wholesome sentiment among tbe people of the
than is now prevailing.

The Enemjf we art Fiyhtivg—Hherman’t £Te-
roes.—V/t have a copy of a letter written by a
lady of Mississippi to her brother in the army.
We take from it some passages written in a plain
and unaffected style, describing the atrocities pf
some of Sherman's soldiers in the vicinity of
Quitman:
^ ^ I supjtosc you li’tye heard about the
yankees paying us a visit. Yes, dreaded day
is past, the 17th of February. Tte' yankees,
about three thotisand in number, euteref
town, marched to the railroad bridge and bnmi
it; returning th% burned the station, oourt house,
printing office, hospital building, and several
other vacant houses. The night before they
came, —^— heard they were at Enterprise. He
took oif not quite half of our meat; three tru&ks
of my best clothing and blankets. About four
teen or fifteen men came here; walked iato the
smokehouse^ took all the hams and shoulders; or
dered biscuit, and had three of the servants cook
ing biscuit; used tip half a barrel of flour, and
helped themselves to as many eg^ aud chickens
as they wanted. Two big negroes were in the
erowd. Not one of them entered my house and
only one spoke to me. He asked for the keys; 1
told him the door was open. They went into
some of the houses; took all the bed-elothes and
oloilting they could lay hands on; broke open
trunks,’drawers, and in one instance, went into
Mrs. Dun^r’s house, where she was lying aick
in bed, and pUled the blankctb and quilts off her.
'I’hey Mcarohed houses for weapons; cursed some
of the ladies, and evb,> stole the bed-cUnhes and
olothing from negroes. One yankoe took Percil-
la’s best tjuilt The whole jjankec army quarter
ed at Marion lour days, where Uiey bebavod in a
scandalous uiaaner. They stripped the- Judge's
i*t).cr of every stiieh olothiog he bad; stol*)
thre«> thousan j dolia^ io mon-Yj tliauaand
dollars iu wine; burned his law-o»-.
his books, and left the poor old man with noiJim^
to He on or cover with. At Lucian Hattcoek'B
they took everything from the fdniily; tore up
his cousin’s olothing before her face, and made
her pnlLtbe ria^B from her lingeis. But joor
Mrs flushing! they treated h«r .•jcandalously.
They stripped her and whipped her until they
brou|;ht the blood to the surface ol the skin.
This is the truth. She lives opposite to the
Judge's uncle. She is ao old lady, aud had
done nothing to provoke them tout. One of the
brutes found a strap, aud askeil what she did with
that thing? She told them she used it to cor
rect her servants and children. Tbe fellow told
her be was going fo try it on her, an4 did so.
They smacked Mrs Smith's face, the Judge’s sis
ter. 1 thank Providence I fared a?t well aa 1 did.”
