the battle Of Roanoke Island the rebel officers
supposed that our Tenth Regiment was a
regiment of regulars because of their steadi-
ness under fire, and directed the most. of
their lire upon this single body. When they
were informed that they were raw troops
Gen.
Foster in command of the Connecticut
troops said that no troops could do better
than they. Gen. Keyes in command of the
Connecticut Brigade at the (lisastrous'battle
of Bull Run was profuse in his compliments
of their bravery. At Port Royal the Con-
necticut men were the first to land and per—
formed the most arduous and dangerous fa-
tigue duty. Wherever the gallant Sons of
Old Connecticut go, they clutch the laui'els.

Succnss IN LIFE.—A man’s best help is in himself
—his own heart. his own soul, his own resolute
purpose. The battle cannot be fought by proxy. _ A
man’smind may be aroused by another— is cure
to improve and advance himself may be excited by
another, but he must mould his own stufi‘, quarry
his own nature, make his own character i—let him
try again! Let him try hard—tr often, and he
cannot fail ultimately to succeed. 0 man can tell
what he can do until he tries, and tries with resolu-
tion. Witness the success of DES. HERRICK of
Albany—who fought poverty ten years but is now
called the 'autocrat of pill manufacturers.

Sales of Webster’s Dictionaries.
' From certain published statements of the
leading booksellers from every part of the
country. it would seem that the sales of the
various editions of Webster’s Dictionaries
are enormous, exceeding many times the
sales of all other dictionaries put together.
We learn that there are five different edi-
tions of our great American lexicographer
now published in England, besides several
English dictionaries which are coniessedly
based on Webster. recent article in the
London Critic admits that the orthography
of Webster’s Dictionary is all but universal

CONSTITUTION WATER,
THE ONLY KNOWN REMEDY FOR
DIABETES.
THE curative properties of this Medicine
direct themselves entirely to the Organs
of Secretion, and by so altering the Stomach
and Liver, that the starchy principle of the
Food is not converted into sugar so long as
the System is under the influence of the
Constitution Water,
which gives these organs time to recover
their healthy tone and vigor. We are able
to state that the CONSTITUTION WATER
has cured every case of DIABETES in which
it has been given. Irritation Of the Neck of
the Bladder and Inflammation of the Kid.
neys, for these diseases it is truly a sovereign
remedy, and too much cannot be said in its
praise. A single dose has been known to re-
lieve the most urgent symptoms: try it, we
beg of you, in these cases, and you will ever
give your praise to
Constitution Water.
Ulceration of the Kidneys and Bladder of
Urine, Diseases of the Pi'ostratc Gland, Stone
in the Bladder, Calculus, Gravel. Brick-Dust
Deposit, add Mucous or Milky Discharges.—
Diseases all occurring from one and the same
cause will be entirely cured by the
s.
Constitution Water.
There is no class of diseases that produce
such exhausting effects upon the human con-
stitution as Diabetes and disease of the Kid-
neys and Bladder, and, through a false mod-
esty, they are neglected. until they are as for
advanced as to be beyond the control of ordi-
nary remedies, and in a majority of cases,
little can be done by the physicians, and we
present the
Constitution Water
to the public with the conviction that it has
no equal in relieving the class of diseases for
which it has been found so eminently suc-
cessful in cuiing; and we trust that we shall
be rewarded for our efforts in placing so val-
uable a remedy in a form to meet the re-
quirements of patient and physician.
