Next Tuesday, October 13, the State elec tions in Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania take place. , We would urge those of our readers in these States to unremitted work in behalf of the Democratic Ticket from this on until the evening of the election. See your lukewarm Democratic neighbors, if you have any, and impress upon them the necessity ot voting the Democratic -Ticket, to the end that there may be refor mation in the Oovernmant. See your Republican neighbors, and en deavor to Jsduce them to vote the Demo cratic Ticket. Call their attention to the fact that, oppressive as taxation is, the Pub lic Dbt is being increased, month by month that the present Reconstruction ' policy, which has for its object the subordi- - nation of the White race to the Negro race in the South, costs the people of the North two hundred millions a year; that the Republican party is committed to the payment of all the Bonds in coin, contrary to the law authorizing their issue, and to the great injury of the people ; that the , Democratic party is committed to their payment according to contract, in Green backs, whereby the taxes of the people c will be lessened and money made sufficient ly plenty to give to the country a healthy prosperlfcj 'r that the Republican leaders denounce the just proposition that money invested in Bonds and drawing regularly big interest should be taxed for all pur poses as other capital is taxed, as repudia tion and an attempt to violate the faith of tbe Government; that .they do not appear to take into account the interests of the mass of the people; that corruption has boldly and au daciously pillaged the Government; that the Republican party in Congress legisla te J outside of and above the Constitution, through motives of hate, and through tbe supposition tb at the people would sustain them in unrighteousness; that a change cannot possibly make matters worse ; that a change should be made, as in the nature ot things there will be an improvement; that if there is no change, the Republican - leaders will feel authorized to go on with , their revolutionary schemes and continue ' theif plundering and the oppression of the people through- Taxation. ' ; .. -, Energetic work, from now until the elec tion, by every Democrat in Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania, will undoubtedly secure . a majority for the Democratic State Tick- ets therein. The hopesof a restored Union V a maintained Constitution, the reduction ot ' ' the expenditures of the Government, and -with their reduction, the reduction of the taxes, should certainly stimulate every Democrat to this work. What are a few days' work as compared with the great blessings that will flow from Democratic success? Democratic Meeting at New Holland. There was a 'Democratic barbecue and mass meeting held at New Holland on Saturday last. It was the first Democratic day meeting that has been held in that Re publican quarter for the last fifteen or twenty years. The crowd in attendance was estimated at not less than five thousand. Speeches were made by Judge Bbiggs and Dr. Gbiswold. "' : General Ewing at Cardington and Mansfield : General Ewihg addressed a large Demo cratic meeting at Cardington on Saturday ' afternoon, and a large meeting in Mansfieid on Saturday night. On both occasions, be made gieat speeches. The enthusiasm in behalf of the Democracy has grown very much within a week, aud the indications now' are that if we shall have a fair elec tion, the Democracy will be triumphant in , Ohio next Tuesday. : The Democratic Mass Meeting at The Democratic Mass Meeting at Steubenville. Th Democratic Masa Meeting at Steu- b eovllle, on the 2d inst, is represented to , have been the largest ever held in that city. The display was magnificent. Hon. Gxo. U.

The Demo crats of Jeflerson were jubilant over the QOmouauaiiiuu. ' Declare for retrenchment and reform on next Tuesday, by voting the Demo cratic Ticket. N - t Gen. Blair in Columbus—His Reception —An Impromptu Meeting and Speech. The arrival of Gen. Francis P. Blair in this city, when generally known, created an Intense desire to see the man whose courage had been the constant theme of praise, and who has been more abused and misrepresented by-Radical editors and ora tors thau any other man in the Republic. During the morning of yesterday he was visited at tbe Nell House by citizens of all politics aud conditions. At 10 o'clock the gun squad of the White Boys in Blue gave him a salute with their cannon, and Hem mersbach's Band, accompanied by an es cort of the White Boys in Blue, gave him a serenade. Accompanied by a large body of citizen Gen. Blair repaired to tbe West Front of the State House, where be was introduced to the crowd by E. T. Bingham, Eq., as the next Vice President of the United States. Gen. Blair, returned thanks for the klr.d and unexpected and cordial reception he had met from the citiz ns of the capital eity of Ohio a compliment he could not take as personal to himself, but to the great party of tbe nation of which he was proud to be a member, and of whose great prln ciples of civil liberty he was a representa tive man, being placed on the ticket as one of the standard bearers in the great con test. Because ot , their devotion to these principles, which alone could save the Re public, and which brought this vast masg of citizens together, Gen. Blair thanked them more than II the ' people had been drawn together .to do him personal honor, During tbe past few weeks, he said, he had been in different StateB, had visited and mingled with the voters .of . Pennsylvania and Indiana, and these States, be said would vote to swell the Democratic major ity. And Ohio would eo with them-Ohlo would vote the Democratic Ticket, and aid in the election of the Democratio nomi nees. Everywhere be had traveled, he found the same spirit prevailing. The people were aroused and were enthusiastic. A Democratic meeting, - largely attended could be gathered almost in the time con; sumed in dropping a hai, while, even in their strong holds, it required time and money to get up a moderate sized Radical assemblage. He bad no inclination, even if he had the time, to address his fellow citizens on the important topics of the day. He was ex hausted with speaking, and the toil of trav el and consequent loss ot needful rest. Yet he would beg the indulgence of the crowd if be defended himself from a charge that had been mug from one extent of the Union to the other.a That charge was that he (Gen. Blair) was a Revolutionist that he wlshed'agaln to light the embers of war to incite another rebellion. The late re bellion, a causeless one, as he conceived, had met bis decided opposition. To aid in put ting it down, he had fought during the whole war, and after perilling hia life and injuring his health in the service of his country battling against life-long friends, the charge that Frank Blair is a Revolu tionist, and would again open up tbe rebel lion, coming as it did from stay-at-home patriots, was one that he felt was as unjust as it was uncalled for. That charge was predicated upon a letter he had written before he was nominated to the second place on the Democratic Tick et. In that, letter he characterized the, so called, Reconstruction measures of the Radical Congress, as without warrant of Constitutional law, and hence null and void, and of no binding effect. The Su preme Court bad decided a portion of these measures unconstitutional, and that Court under the Constitution, was the judge of infraction by Congress, as well as the other Departments of Government, of the Con stitution, and the decision of this high judicial tribunal settled the question be yond appeal. This made it the duty of the President, who was sworn to defend the Constitution, to disobey these uncon stitutional acts, and he. Gen. Blair, had so expressed himself in this letter. For doiug tbi?, the Radicals who sat at their ease in their cushioned chairs in Con gress, while he (General Blair), in compa ny with his brave associates, the White Boys in Blue, were periling their lives to put down a rebellion against the Constitu tion, now charge him with seeking to again light the fires ot civil war. It is the old fable of the wolf and the lamb, which you have all read. The wolf was drinking, and it accused the lamb, which was also drinking lower down tbe stream, ot mud dying the water that the wolf had to drink, and on this charge, which in the very na ture ot the case could not be true, the woll tore tbe lamb to pieces. The Radicals make war upon the Constitution and trample Its several provisions in the dust, and because the Democracy wish to lift it from the dust in which it has been trampled, to bear it aloft, and to save it from further dishonor, and the Union of the States from Radical disruption, they ate charged with being revolutionary, and he (General Blair) with exciting rebellion. No charge could be lurther from the truth, none more false. The Radicals are the only rebels now left, because they are the only men who are in rebellion against the Constitution. What are these Reconstruction acts? They supplanted civil Government in ten States of the Union, and substituted mili tary despotism in those States in the face and in defiance of the declaration of the Constitution, that the military was always to be subordinate to the civil .power. Is that policy of the Reconstruction acts con stitutional ? Am I, said General Blair, a revolutionist because I say the military was always to be subordinate to the civil power, or are those men the revolutionists who have overthrown that portion of our Con stitution and made the military supreme in one-third of the States la this Union ? The Constitution declares that every vava charged with an offense' shall have the right to trial by jury a lury of bis peers. That right has been taken away by the Re construction act so-called, from every bu nan being in ten States of this Union. Was hea revolutionist because he contend- d for the restoration of that right which tas descended to the people of this country rom their ancestors or are those men -imposing the Congress that has over thrown the sacred right are they the rev olutionists? The contest, Said Gen. Blair, Is now close u hand. Although the Radical party has thoseu as their candidate for the first plact on their ticket the General in command oi die Army a General with whom and un der whom be, Gen. Blair, bad fought, and against whom he never bad said and nevei would say aught In disparagement yet they would be beaten. Gen. Grant cannot save them from defeat, for the people have willed that there must be a change of rulers, and the voice of the people must be obeyed. The Empire State of the Union would give the Democracy its largest ma ! t.i. Thn three trreat center States of JUtl.J. " Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, were sale, aid the vote of these States ends the , ontest,and with it ends all lurther en croachments on the Constitution, and with fie end of these encroachments, ends the Ralical rebellion. In this brief skctcn we ao no. proiess to give the language of Gen. Blair, nor any- hing more man tue unoicou ocw.u ua Se both impromptu effort and no . .-.,. . mux. meeting anu me speecn jihance was naa to uaevu uuwi nuau aaananamaanaaaaanTll the orator said. His fine physique, his countenance, in which tbe generous soul of the man was seen hia earnestness of manner and fine delivery, marked him as an orator of no common fame. He was loudly cheered, and yet tbe very men whose enthusiasm burst forth, seemed loth to give vent to a single cheer, lest a single word the orator spoke should be lost. Soldiers Voting—Soldiers Starving. "Dispel his sophistry, in vain The creature's at hia daily work again." The Journal has another spasm on tbe repeal of the law which allows soldiers at the. so-called, Soldiers' Home at Dayton, no matter where their residence, to vote at township, State and Presidential elections, In the election precinct where the institu tion is located. The Constitution of Ohio says a man to vote must be a free white male citizen of the United States, and must have resided and had his home In Ohio one year next preceding the election. This latter clause of the Constitution, the-law, which the last Legislature blotted from tbe statute book repealed, and under its pro visions a man employeu or residing in that Institution could vote in Ohio if his resi dence was in Indiana, and then, by taking tie train to Indiana, could vote in that State the same day, and no power on earth could punish him for this double voting. Every inmate of the institution, under the law as it now stands, if he is a voter in Ohio, and.roakes hij home at the so-called Soldiers' Home, Is a voter, and nojudge of election dare refuse to allow him his votf It is a new doctrine, one much more to be "honored in the breach than in the observ ance," that a law ot the Legislature, even 11 it is passed by a Radical Legislature, can repeal and set aside the plain requirements of the Constitution. The men that control this Soldiers' Home have made it a Soldiers' Prison, for men are not there allowed to exercise their right of suffrage unless they vote as the men that control it deem right and proper, Without other cause than that of an anxie ty to hear Democratic speakers, and for at tending a Democratio, meeting, wounded soldiers have, within the last month, been discharged from tbe institution, and yet tbe Journal editor whines like a sick puppy, because the Constitution is not violated, In order to allow the men who committed this outrage, to vote in Ohio all the soldiers from other States they may choose to al low to board a few days at the institution, and wben they vote in Ohio to send them to their real homes to vote again.. Just at this particular moment, when the ,7 ournal finds the soldiers who fought for tbe Union still anxious to do battle for it by voting, for the gallant Blair and for Seymour, its editor has much to say ot ' maimed veterans, with three ot their four limbs, perhaps, retting on some rebel bat tlefield;" but when the noble veteran of Ohio, sunk into poverty and suffering for bread, and the widow of those who fell in battle", were suffering for even the necessa ries of life, the money raised by taxation to provide for their comfort was taken from them by the last Radical Legislature and by the Radical members of the Board of Fund Commissioners and used for another and a different purpose this stealing (for that is robbery which is unlawfully taken) tbe editor of the Journal has no word -to censure then, the rights of the "maimed veteran, with three of bis four limbs, per haps, rotting on some rebel battlefield,' had no word in that paper against the rob bery of the $800,000 raised for his benefit, but taken and used for another and a wide ly different purpose. To reluse to aid in a violation of the Constitution of Ohio, is a crime in the eyes of this Radical editor, but to take food from tbe mouth of the crippled soldier, his wife and children to rob the widow and the orphan of that which justly be longed to them to leave over six thousand soldiers penniless in Ohio, .to starve, for the money raised tor their benefit, and which, when raised, was as much their own as if it were deposited in an honest bank to their credit, is a virtue that the Journal can see no reason to censure. It is beeause the Radical leaders have been false to their professions of love for the Union, shown by their efforts to dis rupt it false to their promises to care for the soldiers and their families, shown by their transfer of the Soldiers' Relief Fund false to their profession of respect for the rights of soldiers, as shown by the ex pulsion of crippled soldiers from the so called Soldiers Home for attending Demo cratic meetings, that has made more than three-fourths of the White Boys in Blue in this city veterans who fought in every battle from Bull's Run to Lee and John ston's surrender, Democrats who will vote for Seymour and Blair for the Flag, with all its stars, and for the States, with all their rights tor the Constitution and the rights ot white men to rule a white Republic. The protection which Radical leaders give to the soldiers' families and to the crippled soldiers, now the war is closed, is the protection which the vulture gives to the lamb the protection which avarice gives .to honest poverty the protection which the inhuman master gives to the horse whose strength has been worn oitin bis service, and who is turned out to per ish, because there is no more work in him. Such facts as these make the White Boys in Blue a tower of strength, in the present canvass. God bless them, and may their ballots save tbe Republic, which their bul lets, in consequence of Radical treason to ti Constitution, failed to do. Meetings in Union County. W. H. Randall and R. W. Thompson addressed tbe Seymour and Blair Ciub, of Darby township, at Unlonville Centre, on the evening of September 26th. The ball was full and overflowing with conserva tive voters. The Democracy of Darby are wide awake to their interests, and are moving forward with apparent success, and are confidentially expect to make quite a little Democratic gain in reliable old Darby. W. M. Randall and R. W. Thompson addressed the Seymour and Blair Club ol Jerome township, Union county, at New Calilornla, on the evening of Oct, 2d. The Township house was packed full of voters, composed mostly of Jerome, aided by Mill creek. The Democracy ot Jerome and Millcreek are thoroughly aroused to a sense of their duty, and will give a satis factory accou.it of affairs on the 13th ol October, and the first Monday in Novem ber. - That Republican Canvass.

"Let us have peace V Plain Dealer. That's a good showing for the Democ racy of Cuyahoga county.

THE RADICALS AT THEIR OLD TACTICS! EXAMINE YOUR TICKETS BEFORE VOTING! No means, however infamous and vile, but are used by the Radicals of this coun ty to accomplish their desired end, namely the rednctlon of the Democratic majority in this city and county. They well know that Old Franklin is tbe Gibralter of Ohio Democracy, and any diminution in its ma jority would be hailed with delightby every disunlonist in the land. To accomplish this purpose, our candidates have been traduced, vlllifled and abused ; our pro cessions have been stoned and our meetings disturbed. Even these outrages have not exhausted the Radical magazine. For some time past fraudulent tickets have been in circulation for tbe purpose of deceiving the people. The names of two of the Dem ocratic candidates are omitted, and in place thereof the names ot the Radical candidates are Inserted. Democrats, look to your guns Let ho man vote a ticket, county or State which has not all the names of our candi dates thereon. Vote the ticket, the whole ticket and nothing but the ticket. Letter from Marysville. [Correspondence of the Ohio Statesman.] MARYSVILLE, O., Oct. 3d, 1868. Col. J. C Groom, of Columbus, addressed the Seymour Club last evening, at tbe Court House, it being nicely filled with an attentive audience. The Colonel made some splendid points, but the only thing that we regret, Is that our Republican friends did not attend. Democracy is supposed to be all sound on'the questions ol the day, advocated by our Democratic speakers, and if we could prevail on Re publicans to attend and hear the truth there might be some chance for their salvation. The Hon. J. B. Coates made a moving speech of four hours and a half, on Thurs day evening, to the Tanners. . They, Indeed, were not plenty, but as the hour grew late, he bad moved them. They becoming tired of his low harangue were digusted, aud went home perhaps not as good Union men as before the speech of tbe honorable gentlemen. The Republican majority of Union coun ty will be reduced to four hundred and SUB. A Representative Candidate. Republican press of the State are generally calling upon the Republicans of tbe 10th District, to be sure to elect Ash ley, alleging that he Is a representative man In the Republican party, and that would Dea Durning shame to have him de tested. This man Ashley, who is held np as representative man in the Republican par ty, on the 8th of July, 1867, offered the following amendment te the Constitution ot the United States : "After the 4th day of July, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and seventy six, all citizens ot the United States there after becoming twenty-one years of age. and who may thereafter be naturalized, shall be required to read and write the English language as a qualification to vote." This amendment is aimed at the exclus son of the Germans from suflrage, who shall come to this country after 1876. In letter dated August J9th, 1867, written to Hon. William Lawrence, referring to this proposed amendment, he sail : "I will remark, however, in passing, that I should regard that Government as wise and liberal in its bestowal ot citizenship and th privileges of the ballot, which pro vided that I should enjoy all the rights and privileges pertaining to native born sub jects, on tbe simple condition that I read ana write the language of my adoption." Is Ashley a representative Republican because he wants to proscribe the Ger mans ? Meeting at Chillicothe. Tbe largest Democratic night meeting ever held in Chillicothe was held in that city on Saturday night. Fully five thousand persons were present. There was a torch light procession and a display of fireworks Col. Higgiss and Hon. L. P. Neal were the speakers of the occasion, and handsomely did they acquit themselves. , Taxation Too Low. The Journal claims that Taxation, which is now crushing everything industrial, has been reduced too low. This, then, necessarily causes the monthly increase in the Public Debt. Of course, the success of the Republican party necessitates the increase of Taxation. A Lesson from the Enemy! Read! Read! A secret circular has been sent out from tbe Republican headquarters at Columbus, which contains hints that every Democrat should need, we make oriel items of its principal points : 1. Perfect your organization. 2. Ascertain tbe exact status of every voter. s 3. Appoint committees at once. 4. Pay strict attention to tbe students' voting law. 5. Inclose two tickets to every Remibll can, one of which to be voted by him and the otber Dy some aouotiui voter. 6. See every man tbe day before the elec tion and secure his assistance. 7. Have every Republl an at the polls by 6 o'clock A. M-to remain during the dav. 8. Have tbe rallying and challenging committees reaay oeiorenana. 9. Send for every voter not present or ac counted for by 10 o'clock. 10. Let no Republican sleep after 5 o'clock A. M. on the 13th of October. 11. See that all foreigners who will vote the Republican ticket are naturalized. 12. Get home all Republican young men who may be attending eollege. 13 Prevent change of residence by which votes may be lost. 14. Look out for Imported voters. 15. Tbe Republicans of the State were never so well organized, and never work in? more effectually. 16. Follow these instructions and we shall carry Ohio in October, and by a large majority for Grant and Collax in Novem ber. Let every Democrat in the State act on these suggestions. Let him do as the Re publican State Executive Committee are culling on the Republicans to do, and Dem ocratic victory will be certain. "The New Rebellion." Under this head the Tribune daily prints the news from the South. Its object, ol course, is obvious enough. Relying upon that profound ignorance which, as statistics show, prevails In those parts of the North where the Radical party is strongest, it keeps pegging away at Southern Demo crats as"rebels,"in the hope that i t may keep its own followers up to the boiling point of prejudice and passion until after tbe election. In the same spirit it daily manufactures new and surprising inventions of Souther.) "outrages." On tbe editorial page ot tbe Tribune, indeed, the work of the war is daily undone. In those formidable columns t;ie Union dies daily. Whoever reads and believes them must tremble with horror to learn from the news column of the same journal that 'Washington has never been so bare of troops as now, since Lee's sur render." Remote rustics in St. Lawrence county.troglodyte parsons In Eastern Mas sachusetts reading these things must lie awake in their beds at night listpntng for the clang of the clarions ot Wade Hampton and the rattle ot tbe riflemen of Forrest. It is truly dreadful! But why does the Tribune disembowel it self by publishing such a remark as this, made by General Howard, the head of the Freedmen's Bureau, who has just returned from an extended Southern . journey ? "There was this amount of freedom in the South, that an officer of the Government, the head of the hatedFreedmen's Bureau, could pass through all the South and be treated with everywhere, even while expressing —N. Y. World. Death of Judge Jacob Flinn. In onr local column, yesterday, we an nounced the death of that well-known cit izen, Judge Jacob Flinn. His father was one of tbe earliest Dioneers of Hamilton county, coming here more than half a cen tury ago, when it was little more than re claimed from the savages. His son. J idge Flinn, Inherited many of the virtues, aud some ot the detects, of the early settlers. He possessed a strong mind, had great and positive force of character, with energy and indomitable will, but, nevertheless,ac companied on the social side with frailty and weakness. He was generous and Im pulsive, with a disposition that abhorred every thing that was mean and ungrateful. Ic bis physical proportions and gilts he had hardly an equal.beinga Saul iu stature and a Samson In strength. But. like most men who are clothed with this Immense nower. he was easy lu temper and placable In his resentment. Destitute to a great extent of scholastic education, and relying almost entirely upon bis natural mental powers, he was not an adversary to be despised: and in the visor of bis capacity he had not a little Influence over men. .Both as a lawyer and a crim inal Judge he attained, so far as crinlitiei - Hons were concerned, a very fair position. in uis pontics ne was ever a Democrat ol the strictest sect true alike to the princi ples and organization of the party. His Goliah stature, his remarkably Im pressive appearance, together with his well-known antecedents, and even his so cial infirmaties,had made him a prominent figure in Hamilton county, and there are few who will be more missed In the scenes of their avocations and upon our streets. His demise was, to a great extent,unex pec ted. Age had hardly thrown a shadow upon his remarkable form and vast bulk. or dimmed the light of bis intelligence. He apparently bad a constitution that would carry him to a hundred years. But, pow erful as he was, he succumbed early to tne lung of Terrors, anording an other remarkable illustration of how little we can judge by physical appearances of prospects in lite; and how necessary it Is for those in the best of health to be pre pared at any moment for a call to cross the dark, but narrow, shore which leads from —Cincinnati Enquirer. Grant as a Philanthropist. To the "little creature who, for some in scru table purpose is permitted" to edit the Delaware Gazette, we commend the follow ing: "WASHINGTON, 11 P. M., April 14, 1864. "Major General Butler': "Your report respecting negotiations with Commissioner Ould for the exchange ol prisoners ot war, has been relerred to me and my orders.' "Until examined by me, and my orders thereon are received by vou. decline all U. S. GRANT, "Lieutenant General." it a a "Decline all further negotiations" for exchange ot prisoners leave the gallant union soldiers to rot and die in the South era prison pens! These were the words of General Grant! Soldiers! Citiz ?n?! Look at the picture! Isn't it horrible! Could you conceive how a man could be so cruel so heartless? He sent Butler instructions. of which that worthy said : "Ot course these instructions, in tbe then state of negotiations, rendered any runner exchange impossible, ana retalia tion useless." .Reviewing tbts whole subject ot ex changes In a report, General Butler, a sup porter oi urant, nseu mis language : "The great importance of the questions tbe teanui responsibility for the many thousands of lives, which, by the refusal tb exchange, were sacrificed by the most cruel forms ot death, from cold, starvation and pestilence of the prison pens of Raleigh and Andersonville. being more than ail the British soldiers .killed in the wars of Na poleon ; the anxiety of fathers, brothers. sisters, mothers, wives, to know the exi gency which caused this terrible, and, per haps, as it may have seemed to them, use less and unnecessary destruction of those dear to them, by horrible death, each and all have compelled me to this exposition, so that it may be seen that these lives were spent as a part of the system of attack upon the rebellion, devised by the wisdom of the General-in-Chiel ot the armies, to destroy it by depletion, depending upon our su perior numbers to win the victory at last." And thus it appears, that General urant, "the General-in-Chief of the armies," was. according to Radical authority, the deviser or tbe system that lelt onr gallant soldiers to starve, and rot, and die in Southern prisons! When you think upon the hor rors of Andersonville, remember that Ulysses S. Grant is answerable, in the eyes of liod, and In tbe eyes ot man, for tbe great sufferings and deaths that occurred there, which he could have avoided by the exchange ot prisoners, .which tbe rebels proposed and he "declined." The South. . Gen. Reynolds, commanding the Depart ment ot Texas, has directed that no elec tion for electors for President and Vice President of the United States shall be held in the State pt Texas on tbe third day of November next.

Dear Sir: In your paper of last week yon, or one of your correspondents, say that Dr. Drake. is not the originator of the celebrated Plantation Bitters, and that they were manufactured and sold by one Pedro Martelle, an old Spaniard, In the Is land of St. Thomas, over forty years ago, as every .old sea captain can testify. Now, sir, I can certify to the above as being true, lor I have followed the sea for over forty years, most of the time doing business with the West Indies. These same Bitters, dif ferently put np and named, were brought to my notice on my first trip to the Island of St. Croix for a cargo of rum, and for years and years after, my ship's stores were n jver without them. I always supplied my family and many of my ueighbors with them, and can truly say a better Bitters and Tonic is not made in all the world. Yours truly, . Capt. Henry Wrntz. Magnolia Water.
