The Dying Sergeant.
It was perhaps ten days after the sec-
ond battle of Manassss, that I visited
one 'dflthé hespitalsnear Washington, for
the purpose of ascertaining if any of the
disabled Of my own command had been
borne there; and if so, of speaking to
theme kind, cheerful word, always so
gratefdl‘toh‘Wounded soldier. As I was
passing} thrdu'g'h {the numerous wards,
viewiu‘gfivith'5_;;feeling of sympathy and
pride the'inutilated, but patriot and ‘un-
complaining sufferers,- two strangers—a
sister and an aunt of one of the yOuug
heroes—accosted me, and asked if I
would be so kind as to cometo the conch
of their relative, and standby him while
the surgeon should amputate his limb,
which‘they- told me had been amputated
a few days before, but on account of the
arteries having commenced to slough
away, the physicians had decided upon
this as the only hope of saving his life.
I follOwed them to the couch. They
were: both weeping, but the wounded
soldier, although suffering intensely, met
me with a smile and saluted me. I sat
down by his couch and took his hand in
mine., He told me that he was a ser-
ge‘an't‘in} the Fifth New York (Du‘rye‘a’s
Zouaves) ; that he was wounded late in
the action, and left upon the field ; that
he remained where he fell from Saturday
until the following Wednesday, “ with
no food save a few hard crackers, left in
my buyersack, and with no water except
that which God gave me from heaven, in
rain and dew, and which I caught in my
blanket.”
The sergeant continued his story after
a moment’s pause, occasioned by his suf
feriug, by saying, “You know, coloneb
how God always remembers us wound-
ed soldiers, with rain, after the battle is
over, and when our lips are parched and
our tongues are burning with fever. On
Wednesday Iwas found by one of our
surgeons, who dressed my wound and
placed me with other disabled soldiers in
an ambulance, to be sent to Washington.
I arrived there late on Thursday even-
ing, when my limb was amputated, and
I”—The sergeant again paused in his sto.
ry, and I begged him not to go on. I
noticed that his voice became weaker,
and his face more pale and deathiike, and
a moment‘afterwards I observed blood
trickling down upon the floor from the
rubber poncho on which the sergeant was
lying. I at once called the surgeon to
his bedside. He examined the limb, and
after consulting with other surgeons in
attendance, told me they had decided
that it was impossible to save his life ;
that I‘e-amputation would be useless ;
that the soldier was fast sinking from
exhaustion ; and that, in all probability,
he would not survive the hour ; and de-
sired that I shonld make known their
decision and apprehensions to the aunt"
and sister. ’ -
n
With suchlanguage as a soldier might A
_ command, I informed them that the ser—
geant must soon rest. Tears filled their
eyes, and they sobbed bitterly ; but their
grief was borne as Christian women
alone can hear such sorrow—for they
heard the voice of the Elder Brother ,
speaking to them, as to Martha, “ I am
the resurrection and the life ; he that
believeth in me, though he were dead,
yet shall be live.” 'The sister, wiping
away her tears and taking a small pray~
er—book from her dress, asked me, if I
would tell her brother how soon he must
die, and if -I would read to him “the
prayer for the dying." I went again
to the couch, and stood beside the dying
soldier. ' Sergeant} 1 said, (-we shall
halt'soon—we are not going to march
much further to day.’ ‘Are we going to
halt, colouel,’ said the sergeant, ‘ so ear—
ly in the day i? Are we going into biv— -
once before night?’ ‘ Yes, sergeant,’ I
replied, ‘ the march is nearly over—the
bugle call will soon sound ' the halt.’
The sergeant’s mind wandered for a mo—
ment, but my ‘ tears interpreted to him
my words. "Ah, colonel,’ he said, ‘do
you mean that I am so soon to die 1‘”
‘Well colonel, I am glad I am going to
die—I want to rest—the march has. not
been so long, but I am wearwa am
tired—~-I want to halt—I want to be with
Christ—I want to‘ be with my Saviour.’
I read to him ‘ the prayer for the dying,’
most of which be repeated ; and then
the sister knelt beside the couch of her
dying brother, and offered up to God a‘f
prayerfull of earnestness, love and faith.
The life-blood Of the dying soldier was
trickling down from the bedside, andl
crimsouiug her dress, while she besought
the Father that the robes of her dying
brother might be ‘washed and made
white in the blood of the Lamb. The
prayer washaisbed. The sergeant said
‘Amen.’ We stood again by his bed-
side; ‘Sister—auut—do not grieve—-- do
not weep, for 1 am going to Christ ; I
am going to rest in “ihaven. Tell my
mother’ sister,’——aud the soldier took
from his fingeva ring, and kissed it——
‘tellmy mother, sister’-—s:tid the ser-
geant, ‘that this is for her, and that I
remembered her and loved her, dying ;
and then he took another ring from his
hand,kisscd it, and said, ‘Sister, give
this to her to whom my heart is pledged,
and tell her—tell her to come to me in
heaven.’ ‘And colonel,’ said the ser—
geant, turning to me—‘and his face
brightened with the words—tell my com-
rades of the‘ army—the brave Army of
the Potomac—that I died bravely—died
for the good old flag.’ These were the
last words of the dying soldier. His
pulse now beat feebler and feebler, the
blood trickled faster and faster down the
bedside, the dew of death came and went,
flickering for a moment over the pallid
face, at length rested—rested for-ever.
The sergeant had halted ; his bivounc is
in heaven.

These Bonds are issued under the Ac of
Congress of March 8th, 1864, which prpo~
vides that all Bonds Isssued under this Act
shall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by
or under any State or Municipal authority.
Subscriptions to these Bonds are received in
United States notes or notes of National
Banks. They are TO BE REDEEMED IN
COIN, at the pleasure Of the Government,
' at any period not less than ten nor more than
forty years from their date, and until their re-
demption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST
WILL BE PAID IN COIN, on Bonds of
not over one hundred dollars annually, and
on all other Bonds semi-annually. The in-
terest is payable on the first days of March
and September in each year.
Subscribers will receive either Registered
or Coupon Bonds, as they may prefer. Reg-
istered Bonds are recorded on the books of
the U. S. Treasurer, and can be transferred '
only on the owner’s order. Coupon Bonds
are payable to bearer, and are more conve-
nient for commercial uses. 1
Subscribers to this loan will have the op-
tion of having their Bonds draw interest
from March 1st, by paying the accrued inter-
est in coin, (or in United States notes, or the
notes of National. Banks, adding fifty per
cent. for premium), or receive them drawing «
interest from'the date of subscription and
deposit. As these Bonds are
Exempt from Municipal or State- ‘
Taxation,
their value is increased from one to three per
cent. per annum. according to the rate of tax
levies in various parts of the country.
At the present rate of premium on gold
they pay ‘
OVER EIGHT PER GEN T. IN—
TE RE S T
in currency, and are of equal convenience as
a permanent or temporary investment.
It is believed that no securities offer so
great inducements to lenders as the various
descriptions of U. S. Bonds. In all other
Forms of indebtedness, the faith or ability of
private parties or sleek companies or seper--
ate communities only is pledged for pay-
nent, while for the debts of the United States
the whole property of the country is holden
to secure the‘ payment of both principal
and interest in coin. -
These Bonds may be subscribed for 'in
sums from $50 up to any magnitude, on the
same terms, and thus made equaly available
to the smallest lender and the largest cap-
italists. They can be converted into money
at any moment, and the holder will have
the benefit of the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connection
that the total Funded Debt of the United
States on which interest is payable in gold,
on the 3d day of March, 1864, was $768,-
965.000. The interest on this debt for the
coming fiscal year will be $45,937,126,
while the customs revenue in gold for the
current fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1864
has been so far at the rate of‘ over $100,059,-
000 per annum.
It will be seen that even the present gold
revenues of the Government are largely in
excess of the wants of the Treasury for the
payment of gold interest, while the recent
-increase Of the tariff will doubtless raise the
annual receipts from customs on the same
amount of importations, to $150,000,000 per
annum.
Instructions to the National Banks acting
as loan agents were not issued from the
United States Treasury until March 26, but
in the first three weeks of April the sub-
scriptions averaged more than TEN MIL.

Notice.
N PRESENTING this article to the Pub-
lic, the Manufacturers do not assert that it
will cure everything ; but for the purposes
named, and most other external applications,
they have no hesitation in saying it is the
Best Artick of the Kind
yet Offered—in evidence of which they can
adduce the testimony of those whose intelli-
gence and veracity are unquestionable.
The publishing of Certificates of the “Won-
derful Cures” having been of late looked up-
on as .a great humbug and as the Public have
been so frequently imposed upon by false
representations, through which they have
lost all confidence in the host of quackerics
with which the country abounds, we have
concluded that this LIN IMENT, after a fair
trial, may rest entirely upon its own merits.
Its effects might appear incredible but from
the high character of those whose experi-
ence in its use has confirmed our most san-
guine expectations. And upon application
at. our office we will furnish names of indi-
viduals and families who have been greatly
bencfitted by its use.

FRIENDS AND RELATIVES
OF THE

HOLLOWAY’S PILLS
And ouggmsur. ‘
All who have Friends and Relatives in the
Army or Navy should take especial care that
they be amply supplied with these Pills and
Ointment; and where the brave Soldiers and
Sailors have neglected to provide themselves
with them, no better present can be sent them
by their Friends. They have been proved
to be the Soldier’s never-failing-friend in the
hour of need.
Coughs and Colds affecting Troops
Will be speedily relieved and effectually
cured by using these admirable medicines,
and by paying proper attention to the Di-
gictious which are attached to each Pot or
ox. ’ " ‘
Sick Headaches and Want of Appetite,
Incidental to Soldiers.
Those feelings which so saddenus usually
arise from trouble or annoyances, obstructed
perspiration, or eating and drinking whatev-
er is unw holesomc, thus disturbing the health-1
ful action of the liver and stomach. These
organs must be relieved, if you desire to be
well. The Pills, taken according to the
printed instructions, will quickly produce a
healthy action in both liver and stomazh, and
as a natural consequence a clear head and
good appetite.
Weakness or Debiity Induced by Over .
Fatigue.
Will soon disappear by the use of these in-
valuable Pills, and the Soldier will quickly
acquire additional strength. Never ct the
Bowcls be either confined or unduly acted
upon. It may seem strange, that Holloway's
Pills should be recommended for Dyscntcry
and Flux, many persons supposing th it they
would increase the relaxation. This is a
great mistake, for these Pills will correct the
liver and stomach, and thus remove all the
acrid rumors from the system. This medi-
cine will give tonc and vigor to the whole
organic system, however deranged, while
health and strength follow as a matter of
course. Nothing will stop the relaxation of
the Bowels so sure as the famous medicine.
Volunteers, Attention ! Indiscret'ons of
Youth.
Sores and Ulcers, Blotchcs and sw ailings,
can with certainly be radically cured, if the
Pills are taken night and morning, and the
Ointment be freely used as stated in the
printed instructions. If treated in any other
manner, they dry up in one part to break
out in another. Whereas this Ointment will
remove the bumors from the system and
leave the Patient a vigorous and healthy
man. It will require a little perse7erance
in bad cases to insure a lasting cure.
For Wounds either occasioned by the
Bayonet, Sabre, or the Bullet,£lores
or Bruises.
To which every Soldier Sailor are liable,
there are no medicines so for, sure, and con-
venient as Holloway s Pills and Ointment.—

THE peculiar taint or
infection which we call
SCROFULA lurks in
the constitutions of
multitudes of men. It
cithcr produces or is
. product-(l by an (-n-
‘ g,” ' ' , f'ccblcd. vitiatcd stale
"Si-Eof the blood, win-rein
'1 (:2; that fluid becomes in-
‘_R75;conipcl1-Iit to sustain
mm the vital ibrrcs in their
mm vigorous :u-rion, and
’ :lcnvi-s the system to
fall into disorder and
. decay. The scrol‘ulous
contamination is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordered digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthv
habits, the depressing vices, and, above :1”. bl’
the venereal infection. Whatever be its origin,
It IS hereditary m the constitution, descendin
“from parents to children unto the third an
fourth generation ; ” indeed, it seems to be the
rod of Him who says, “ I will visit the iniqui-
ties of the fathers upon their children." The
diseases which it originates take various names,
according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally
Consumption; in the glands, swellings which
suppurate and become ulcerous sores; in the
stomach and bowels, derangements which pro-
duce indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com.
plaints; on the skin, eruptive and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. purification and
mvrgoration of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you can-
not have health; with that “life of the flesh "
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla
is compounded from the most effectual anti-
dotes that medical science has discovered for
this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of the
disorders it entails. That it is far superiorto
any other remedy yet devised. is known by all
who have given it a trial. That it does com-
bine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect
upon this class of complaints, is indisputably
proven by the great multitude of publicly
nown and remarkable cures it has made of
King'sEvil or
so
r,—
the following diseases:
Qlandular Swe ' , Tumors, Erup-
tions, Pimplss, 310 as andSores, Ery-
sI las, Rose or St. Anthea ’s Fire, Salt
cum, Seald Head, Go from tu-
berculous deposits in the '
Swelling: nobility Dre Iii-gig:
, I‘ I o D
I) orln' ‘Irys and
Syp tIeInfectIons, ,'
Female Weaknesses, and. indeed. the whole
series of complaints that arise from impurity
of the blood. Minute re rts of individual
cases may be found in xEn’s AIERICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some of
the remarkable cures which it has made when
all other remedies had failed to afford relief.
Those cases are purposely taken from all sec-
tions of the country, in order that every reader
may have access to some one who can speak to
him of its benefits frOm personal experience.
Scrofula depresses the vital energies, and thus
leaves its victims far more subject to disease
and its fatal results than are healthy constitu-
tions. Hence it tends to shorten, and does
tly shorten, the average duration of human
life. The vast importance of these considera-
tions has led us to spend years in perfectin a
remedy which is adequate to its care. This
we now offer to the public under the name of
Area’s SABSAPARILLA, although it is com.
‘ osed of ingredients, some of which exceed the
st of Sarsaparilla in alterative power. By
its aid you may prote yourself from the suffer-
ing and danger of th disorders. out
the foul con-options that rot and fester- in the
blood; purge out the causes of disease, and
vigorous health will follow. By its peculiar
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func-
tions, and thus expels the distempers which
lurk within the system or burst out on any
part of it.
We know the public have been deceived by
man compounds of Sarsapm'illa, that promised
mac and did nothing; but they will neither be
deceived nor disappointed in this. Its virtues
have been proven by abundant trial, and there
remains no question of its surpassing excellence
for the cure of the afilicting diseases it is in-
tended to reach. Although under the same
name, it is a re different medicine from any
other which has een before the people, and is
far! more effectual than any other which has
ever been available to them.
