A Remintacendo of the Mexlean War
The Palmetto on the Blood Field of
Cherubusco.
The following sketch appeared in
the d aglestos Roetij'.Net anuny
year .,g ; ieed "REMINIsORNoEs oF
TUS PALMETTO REGIMENT." It was
written by a survivor. We believe
Its reproduction in TE NEWs AND
HERALD' this time will be accoptan
blo to all otir readers:
The.speecli made by our distin
guish6d represntative, in Congress,
the Hon. Lawrence M. Keitt, at tho
banquet recently given by the City
Council of Columbia, to the surviv
ors of the Palmetto Regiment, in
which he related several incidents
which occurred on the bloody field
of Churubusco, unknown before,
save to those who now survive, has
created an intelest, aid caused a
fooling among our citizens to hear
and know more of the history of
that Regiment.
The following sketch, is as we be,
heve, a full and true account of th
death of O9gl Pierce M. Butler, and
what occurred thereafter :
Early in the action, Col. Butler's
horse was shot through the nostrils,
the ball cutting the head stall of the
bridle, causing the bit to drop out
of his horse's mouth. The Colonel
immediately dismounted, when his
horse plunged most furiously, be
came wild from pain, and ran into
the ranks of the enemy. Soon after
this, Col. Butler recoiged a severe
wound in the knee, the ball passing
under the joint, and through the
flesh, causing him intense pain, and
almost rendering it impossible for
him to walk, and in a sliort time
disabled him from keeping the con
maud.- He retired, turning the
command over to Liout. Col. Dick
inson.
The fire of the enemy was now
terrific-the very air was thick with
the leaden messengers of death, and
the continual order of "close ranks"
told how truly they did their dutly.
Gteral Shields then ordered the
regimnent to' retire behind a large
hacienda, (whore Col. Butler and the
other wounded'.of the regiment were
lying) for the purpose of forming a
new line. A new line was formed,
and the regiment marched on under'
a most murderous fire towards the
enemy, which were strongly posted
in the road, Col. Dickinson in comn
mnand and bearing the Palmetto
Flag, Sergt. Beggs, the color bearer,
having previdusly been sliot down.
When the regiment arrived iln a
line parallel to the road. and facing
the enemy, wh'ich was several hun.
(lied yarda fromn the hacienda, Col.
Butler was soeon advancing towards
the regiment, using his sword as a
means of support, to enable him to
walk. As he moved uip into ranks,
Major Gladden approached, and
spoke to him. The Colonel half
faced to the rear, and while he and
Maj. Gladden were in conversation,
the fatal ball struck him in rear of
the left ear. He turned on his left
beel and fell straight backwards in
the arms of Maj. Gladden, who gent
ly laid 1im on the field, and ordered
* detail of men from the ranks to
carry his body to the rear.
During this tIhne, the regiment
had advanced several paces, and, as
Major Gladden approached it, Col.
Dickinson was seen to fall. Major
Gladden wont immediately to him,
when Col. Dickinson said to hihi,
"Here, Major, take these colors and
this sword, and defend and maintain
the honor of Soutl.i Carolina." The
gallant Major took the Palmetto
flag, hiandedl it to .Patrick Leonard,
* (a private in Company H., who bore
*it safely thro~ugh the charge,)'ad
after ordering a file of men to take
CoL. Dickinson to the roar', assumed
command of the Regiment.
General' Shields then rode up,
when Major Gladden asked his per
mission to charge. "Thatt is what
I wish you to do." -'The charge was
then ordered, and soon the bayonets
of the Palmottaes forced back the
serried ranks of the foe, scattoring
them in all directions. Thus ended
the battle of C(hurubusco.
Tiruo and space forb'd ime to speak
of many other incidents which trans.
pired on that bloody fiold, but, per
haps we will relato them horoafter.
VEGETINE
Y EGETINE l'as never failed to effect
a cure, giving tone and strength to
the system debilitated by disease.
SHE RESTS WELL
BouTn POLAND, ME., Oct., 11, 187C.
Ma. I. Rt. S-T:VEN:ss
Dear Sir--I have been sick two years
with the liver complaint., and during that
time have taken a great many difTercnt
medicinOe but none of them did me any
good. I was restless at iights and had
no appetite. 8inco taking the Vegotine I
rest well and relish my food. Can recomn
mentd the Vegetino for what it bus (on0
for me.
Yours respect fully,
Mns. ALrnin'r BICKER.
Witness of the above,
Mr. (ice. M. Vaughan. Medfjrd, Mass.
VEGI TINE:
Thousands will bear testiinon (rand do
it voluntarily) that Ve'etino is/tho best
medical compound yet placed beforo the
public for renovating and purifying the
blood, eradicating all huniors, impurities
or poisonous secretions from the syste im,
invigorating and strengthening the
system debilitated by disease; in fact, it
is, :as many have called it, "Tho .Greati
Health Restorer."
SAFE ANI) SURE,
Mn. H. It. STEvENs ;
In 1872 your Ve"etino was recommend
ed to 1110, and, yielding to the persuasions
of a friend, I consented to try it. At the
tinie, I was suffering from general debili
ty and nervous prostrations, stperin
Xuced by ovorwoyk and irregular haiets.
Its wonderful strengthening anid 'urative
properties seemed to allect muy debilitated
system from the first dose, aid unier its
persistent use I rapidly recovered, gain
ing more than usual healti and good
feeling. Since then I hmve not hesitated
to give Vegetiie moy most unqiualitied in
dorsement as being a safe, sure anld pow
orful agent in promoting health aml res
toring the waste d system to new life antd
energy. Vegetine is the only medicine I
use, and as long as I livo I never expect
to find a better.
Yours truly, W. 1I. C'TA11K,
120 Monterey Street, Alloghany, Pa.
VEGETINE.

MA. HI. R. Krav:ss:
Dear Sir--About ten years ago my health
failed through the depleting effects of
dyspepsia; nearly a year later I was at.
taoked by typhoid fever in its worst forum,
it settled in my back and took the t ,rm of
a large deep-se': "1 albscess, which was
fifteen months . ' iering. [ had two
surgical operati " .'.v the best. :.kill in
the State but re .- no periimanent
cure. I suffered great pain at times and
was constantly weakened by a profuse
discharge. I also lost small pieces of hone
at different times.
Matters ran on thus about seven years,
till May, 18i71, when a friend recomn
'mended mao to go to your oflice and talk
with ym of.the virtue of Veget in. ITid
so, amid by your h:intdness p~assed thirouegh
yourmnanuf'actorv, nioting t he ingredienits,
etc. , by whlmich your reined v is prod uced.
By wvhat. I saw~ aind hearti I gauied some
confidenic ini Vegetine.
I connukenlced takinig it soion after, but1
felt wvorse froml its effemcts; still I per
severed and son felt it wams benetvitting mut
in other resplects. Yet I did nmml see the
results I dlesired, till I had takeni it faitht
fully for a little more than a year. wu'men
the dlitliculty in the hack was eured, andl
for nine months I have enjoyed the best
<f health.
I1 have in that time gained twenty-five
pounds of flesh. being heavier than ever
before ii n my life, and I was never moa11
able to p~erf ormi labor than no0w.
t)uring the past few weeks I have a
serefulous swelling as large as may fist
gather on anlothier part of my body.
I took Vegetine faiithmfully and it~ re
moveyix it ?.evel with the surfaee in a
month. I think I should have been
cured of mny miain trouble sooner if I had
taken harger doses, after having btecome
acustomted to its efftets.
Let your pations tr'oubledm with serofula
or kiduoey. diseism uniderstanid thamt it takes
time to e'trechroni me d iseascs, and itf t hey
will patiently take Vegetine, it will, in
my judlgmient, euro thiem.
WIth great obiligation~is I num,
Yourtis v'ery truly.
