VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL FILLS.
IT Is generally known that my Grandfather was the
original inventor of these remarkable pilis.
He was a scientific man. and a medical practitioner
oi tne via school uut becoming alarmed at too mor
tality that attended the Illcedinif and Mineral Prac
tice, he turned his attention to the study of natureand
me pmiosopny ot uisease, us also to tne natural reme
dial agents which he found to exist exclusively in the
Vegetable Kingdom. In his researches and investi
gations, lie became fully satisfied that the life was in
the blood; that by whatever name diseases were dis
tinguished, impurity of the blood was the source of
an a simple una trutiiiiii doctrine, which, in reiiuctng
till diseases to it unit, necessarily established the fast
Unit all were to-be treated on the same general prin
ciples, viz; by purgation, '
Now the viiind dilllcultv consisled in devising a veg
etable compound that would invigorate, purify, and
clcanso the blood, correct and regulate all the differ
ent secretions, and by purgation discharge the whole
muss of morbid matter from the body, without reduc
ing the strength. After thirty years of close applica
tion, he considered bis object fully accptnplished in
the production ot these pills, which have now been
before the public One Hundred and Fourteen Years,
and it is now (1865) nearly 31 years since Dr. Bran
dreih's Vegetable Universul Life Preserving Pills
wereiirst presei.ted to the American publicduring
which time their superior excellence and virtues have
been extensively proclaimed by papers aud pamphlets,
and a rapid yearly increase of the sale of them ef
fected. To know what will snve life, to know what will
restore health, lea knowledge nut to be hidden. 1.
therefore, as a man desiring to do my duty faithfully,
nave uonea aown some oi tny tniriy-nve years expe
rience with Ilrandreth's Pills, which are an effectual
assistant of nature, and cause the expulsion of acri
monious humors the occasion of every sickness. Ijet
us admit that corrupt humors prevent the free circula
tion of the blood, that Ilrandreth's Pills take ont
these humors, giving heallh for pain, and strength fur
weakness.
No man is sick save when the principle of corrup.
tiongcta the ascendency; Ilrandretu'a Pills aid the
Life Principle to reiain the empire bv romovinu' tlie
corrupt humors from the body. Many a time 1 have
seen life apparently at the last ebb, when these Pills
were given, and in a few hunrs the danger was tmst,
and health's flood tide gave ttie patient renewed life
and vigor. Many are the fathers, mothers, sons, and
daughters, thus saved.
lliese celebrated fills are composed wholly of me
icinal herbs, and do not oontaiu anv mercury or other
miuernl, being perfectly hat-mless to the most tender
aire or weakest frame; yet sure to search out the cause
of sickness, and restore the bualth if tukeu uccording
to the directions.
Let no one iitiiiirine tlinv are ton wpaIc to iipiir the
effect of these Pills, which put no weakness into the
rramo, but draws weakness out. A few doses will be
get confidence, und then the beuuties of purgation will
gradually become nufoldcd to our view, which, en
wen with Itrilliilrctli s Vegetntilo Universul fills, is
and greatly increase the average of human life.
I have now used on mv own person, ami prepared
and administered, Uralidreth's Pills for thiriy-ltve
years. I believe they are the best purgative iu the
world; ana wnn tins ineuirui qimuiv mey iinve nmv
a tonic effect. Anil as I am of the firm opinion that
inflammation and fevers are caused by corrupted
blood not being timely evueuuted, because it regurgi
tates, so to speak, over the whole body, and thus cor
rupts the sound blood that should nourish all the mem
hem. and aeiiinilv destroys and oa ml vies members or
oruaus that are unsound; and as 1 know that these
Pills have a direct effect to remove all corrupt blood
and acrimonious humors from the bixlv in fact, all
humors below the vital standard of health; so I should
be guilty of a great sin, did I not do all in my power
to propagate the use of a medicine which is possessed
of properties ao calculated to save and increase the
average of huinau lifo.

of May 15th, nd the niter of which we
allnil'J in the tiluUmum. of June 10th, its re
sorting to the "trick f lesiig the arguinout in
defence of the Snletu Woden Company jipan

I believe H. W, "orbett, prominent raerch
anff of this oity (Portlaid), is tho author of
"Fair Play." Mr. Corbdt It now aluont from
Oregon no bu si tens to N'W York. He would
not, if present, hesitate to assert hi views ;
and in his absence he reeds no defence of his
business intelligence anl integrity,"
This is the sibstance of Mr. G.'s letter.
And, in reply, we say o ate glad to learn he
is not the man! and, with -egard to Mr. Cor
bett, desire tulsay, .that, Although we were
aware of his bong a stockholder in the Salem
Company to i limited eent, in view of the
ipcciouincBi which, chanoterizes tlie entire
paper, we ootjd not conchdo "that ho wai the
writer of "Fait PlaJ.' " We consider it well
written, and wl ealcnated to deceive ; and
naturally concli 'ed it was the work of some
gentleman learned in die art of reaching out
side of a oase in o ilet to get argument to sup
port It. To that urt W! applied the term "pet
tifogging." Mr. Grove- Is understood to be a
large stockholder in anl director of the Com
pany, and we naturally (included he had skill
to draw up the paper, aid the interest in the
subject to induce him t) use it. If Mr. Cor
liett was the writer, as nr. G. says ho believes
he was (and we would ave been gl id if Mr.
0. hud stated his reasojs for his belief), Mr.
Corbett was doubtless dpeiveil by the director
of whom he says he niilo inquiry, and from
whom he learned the fihts he states ; and we
consider the director ie really responsible
party in Salem. We einll not conclude with
out further evidence thalMr.C. was the writer,
and wo never thought i questioning tho litini
ness intelligence or intgrity of Mr; Corbett.
It is the business integrty of the Snlem Wool
en Company that is in dspute, and its business
intelligence, passing evtnts are rapidly illus
trating. Our opinion ol the aot we alluded to,
is unchanged, the porton of the article we
used, truly quoted, and tho deductions there
from fairly made, we innsider its suggestion
dangerous to the interets of tho wool growing
furmers of Oregon, aid the tendency of the
whole artiole injurious the prosperity of the
State. It is now vircuating through tho ag
ricultural press of other States as iin exposi
tion of wool growing til Oregon. Tho "Fair

man shortly, and we wil give our opinion of its
bearing upon particular and general interests,
not caring who fathers it. A. E.

Insf.cts, Crickets, and Worms. Our ex
changes are record i ng the devastations of the
minor plagues." lhe ban Jose Mercury
says that a little green insect, about tho size of
a flea, is making serious devastations in some
sections of California. It feeds on the leave

in lact nearly every green plant. Rose bushes
are completely covered with this pest. They
are as numerous as the lice of Egypt, aud

The Mountaineer says that the bills in tl

Hayb You Firrr Dollars to Spaiib f
Reader, have vnu fifty dollars to spare, or I
hundred, or a thousand ? If so, don't delay to
invest it in the popular 7-30 U. 8. Loan. It
is to men ol small means that the . annual
Government now offer this admirably safe
and profitable opportunity for investment, and
not to large capitalists only.
On the Pactfio coast there are still vast nnra
bars of men who hoard gold coin or dust, in
sums varying from fifty dollars to thousands.
In this way a very large amount oi mean lies
idle from year to year. Hidden away, buried
in the earth, or locked op with care it i a
constant object of anxiety to its owners, and a
source of temptation to lawless men. The
owners eipeol to viait the Eastern Slates at
some future time or they wait only to increase
tluir store before changing their social or bust
ness relations : aud they are saving their fuuda
for that noeasinn. In the meantime their sold
lies inactive producing nothing but uneasiness
and anxiety because they nave do ready and
safe means of investment, upon securities that
mar be relied upon not to fail tbem.
The Government ol the L tilted Slates now
rising regenerated and purified from the bloody
baptism of civil war offers to this capital
profitable employment, npnn security that Is

THE CHRISTIAN COMMISSION IN RICH

Tho Christian Commission rooms here toem to
be the headquarters of a great variety of good
works. The Commission occupies the spacious .
building ereoted for General Winder's head
quarters, close by the Capitol, and Just under
tho shadow of the equestrian ttatuo of Wash
ington ; and house and yard are fully oooupied
by the various departments of Christuin bo
nevolence, of whioh it it tho centre, and whioh '
in the genuine spirit of Christianity are ex-"
tended even to our enemies.
Their oonditinn indeed is sufficiently deplor
able to excite compassion, even though we
cannot furgttt the ie treatment of our prisoners
in their dietro's, nor be Ignorant of the fnot
that their own hands have brought down this
terrible destruction upon them. The wkyile f
the bushiest part of the oity it In ruins ; com-
prising all the warehouses containing flour,
meal, or provisions in quantities.
- When tho rebel troops retired. the mob com-
menoed the plunder of the smaller ttoret and
dwellings, where they tupposad they oould find
anything valuable ; setting them on fire to pre
vent detection. Had our foroet been a few
hours longer in making their entry, Richmond
would hare been a mass of ruins.
During the week following the ovacnnlion,
tho battles and movements of troops in the vi
cinity prerented the farmers from bringing
anything to market; and the sutlers who ac
companied our army would sell only fur green
backs, while Jeff. Davis, having robbed the
hanks of their specie, and left the people noth
ing but hit promises to pay, they were really
penniless. . l(
In this emergency, hundreds wera actually '
famishing fur want of bread, and the delegntei
of the Christian Commission being human be
ings, cnnld not seo Indies weeping, and hoar
littlo children crying tor hunger,while they had
anything to eat for themselves. Accordingly,
Rev. E. E. Williams divided the few barrels'
of flour and oraokers left iu hit hands after the
supply of nnr woouded, among 1,500 famishing"
peojilo of all grades of tociety, and telegraph

The Union Commission donated 500 barrels -
of Hour, and several gentlemen gave tpeoial
donations for this purpose, which, up to this
date, have saved hundreds of lives, and pro-"
duced upon the minds of tho people nn impres
sion not to be estimated by dollars. They feel -
that secession means destruction and robbery,
and the Union meant peaco, aud relief, and
mercy, even under provocations which made
them tremble lest the horrid murder of tho
President should be avenged upon Richmond.

JEFF. DAVIS' LAST SPEECHES. ,
The following particulars of the oaptare and
flight of Jeff, Davit are giren by the South
Carolina correspondent of the Now York Her
ald 1 .:
Mrs. Davis preceded her husband until bo -crossed
the North Carolina line, when she re
joined him. ,
Just before Davis reaohed Greensboro he
wnt almost surrounded by a detachment of
Stnnemun'i cavalry who might easily bare
caught him had they known who he was. Af
ter leaving Danville, Davis Intended going im
mediately and direotly far sooth. On arrlrinr
at Johnston's headquarters and learning of the
terms of the coorention between 8herraau and
Johnston, and hoping that he wonld be allowed
to leare the country, be altered nit mind and
remained at Charlotte. It wat frequently re
marked that it wat dangeiout for him to do to;
bnt he invariably replied that be had ton many
friendt and knew the country too well le be
caught by any of the foroet in the Yankee
army.
Jeff. Davit remained at Charlotte nntil 12
o'clock on the day that the armistice expired.
At 11 o'clock on that day hit hone, a hand
some blood bay, was brought to the door of the
honse in which he wat stopping. At 12, bar
ing learned that the termt of the aforesaid con
vention were rejeoted, he mounted hit hone,
and, acooriipanied by numeroat friends and
ofiioialt, rode off. At the same time two thou
sand cavalry, under command of Major Gen
eral Dibbrel, moved off with him. acting in the
capacity of an escort. .
That night Davis reached the rioinlty of
Lexington, wheru he enoamped. The next
morning be took breakfast with James Madison
Leach, ex-member of the United States Con
gress, and one nf the body who styled them
selves Confederate States Congress. Ltaob
was reported to be strongly iu favor of re
union. In passing through Lcxlngtou, Davis wat
Introduoed liy Judge Freeman, of Mississippi,
who was traveling with him, to Dr. Dusenbury
a native nf the plaoe. The Doctor invited
Davit to take it drink of apple brandy, and be
did to. A brief conversation ensued.
. The Doctor reiinrkedi "Mr. Davit, our
cause is lost."
Davis replied, "( 1 ir cause may be lost, bnt
lhe principlo for which we are contending will
prosent itself at another time, in another
shape."
He meant that there would ret be a conflict
between tho great agricultural interests of the
South and the manufacturing and commercial
interests of the North and Northwest.
The conversation continuing. Dr.Dossobory
again observed t
1 he masset of the people nf the South were
nut prepared for self government."
to that ho replied by saying, "unfortunatelr
it wat to."
During the whole conversation Davit looked
care-worn, fatigued and dispirited. He oom-
ptained ol suttering soverely from neuralgia.
Davis' private secretary told a friend that
one hundred and fifty thoosand dollar wonld
cover all the tpecie they bad with tbem.
