A correspondent of the San Fran?
cisco Bulletin speaks of the terrible
carnage of the late Tae-ping rebellion.
One district is described which yield?
ed 60,000 chests of tea per annnm
before the war and is now a desert
-waste. A belt of land 400 miles long
by 200 miles wido is literally without
an inhabitant. The writer says: The
distinguished China traveler and
savant, Dr. Maogowan, estimates the
loss of life by the Tae-ping war at
about 25,000,000 souls; but intelligent
Chinese I have conversed with say
that full 100,000,000 were killed or
perished from starvation. There was
not much to choose on either side.
Whether Imperial or Tae-ping, the
victorious party, batmen, women and
children to the sword. The Grand
Ganai used to be choked with dead
bodies, and I have seen even the
swift flowing Yangtze crimson with
blood of all ages, sexes and conditions
in life. _ ^ _ ^_
Botius GOLD MINE IN VERMONT.
A gigantic swindle has recently been
discovered in Bennington, Vt., in?
volving, it is said, the amount of
$350,000. A man, named Vander
crook, in June, 1866, appeared in
that place and offered for sale shares
in a pretended gold mine near by.
By judiciously imbedding a large
amount of valuable specimens, which
he afterwards disinterred in the pre?
sence of a noted geologist and chemist,
by whom they were analyzed, and
found to be excessively rich, he suc?
ceeded in forming a company and
disposing of shares to a very large
amount; after whioh he prudently
decamped.
AN EFFECTUAL CUBE FOR THE EAR
ACHE.-Take a small piece of cotton
batting or cotton wool, making a de?
pression in the centre with the end
of a finger, and fill it with as much
ground pepper as will rest on a five
cent piece, gather it into a ball and
tie it up, dip the ball into a sweet oil
and inBert it into tho ear, covering
the latter with cotton wool, and use
a bandage or oap to retain it in its
place. Almost instant relief will be
experienced, and the application is
so gentle that an infant will not be
injured by it, but experience relief ns
well as adults.
A watch, said to have been tho
property of General Washington,
whioh was "captured" by a Federal
officer or soldier during the war, has
recently passed into the hands of
some honest people in Tennessee,
who are taking steps to restore it
to its right owners. It is of the pat?
tern BO popular with our fore-fathers
and styled by their irreverent de?
scendants "bull's-eye." On the
baok is neatly engraved tho initials
"G. W." The quality of the gold is
remarkably fine, and the case is worn
thin by long usage.
Au ingenious contrivance for rais?
ing water is on exhibition in New
York, and it is said supplies tho
power to a flour mill in Virginia.
The process is to iutroduco steam
the exhaust of a non-condensinf;
engine is sufficient-into a reservoir
connected bv a pinn with a snpplv of
water below, and then, by a je't of
water, io condense tho steam, creating
A vacuum which is instantly filled
with water, to be discharged into a
flumo or reservoir, from which it is
carried to tho waler wheel.
Among the patents granted last
week was ono to a Jersoyman, for
"improved composition for sausages."
Wo have heard of a mixture of dog,
red flannel and turnips, as a compo?
sition for sausage, but it is not likely
that it ever was patented. ^What the
improvement may be, we are at a loss
to imagine.
The emigration from Ireland is not
so large this year as last According
to- tho returns of the Register-G en e
ral, 51,150 persons left Ireland this I
year, up to the 31st of July, being
a deorease of 24,600 on the number
to the date lost year. The entire
??iub?i o? emigrants sincojtuo period
at which the enumeration com?
menced, 1st May, 1865, to the 31st
of July lost, amounted to 1,781,339
persons.
They aro having a sparrows' con?
cert every day now in New York at
Union Park, and a correspondent
writes that it takes place between
half-past 3 and 5 in the afternoon.
Five or six hundred sparrows engage
in this concert, to the delight of
hundreds of persons who ore at?
tracted there to hear their sweet
evening song.
The editor of the Athens Watch?
man, in publishing by request a
"Union Republican ticket," for the
Twenty-seventh District, composed
of Clarke, "Walton and Newton Coun?
ties, Ga., says there are not twenty
seven white men in the district who I
will own up to belonging to that j
party.
A negro woman was butchered by
another in the most shocking manner
on a plantation near Memphis, a few
days ago. The murderess was jea?
lous of her victim, and entering her
cabin, struck her repeatedly with an
axe, crushing her skull and face to a
jelly.
A dispute occurred recently at ?
Cedar Keys, Florida, in which a Mr.
Leak was kicked by his antagonist
twice-once in his side, which re?
sulted in his death. An inquest was
held upon the body, and tho singular I
verdict was rendered of ' 'Death by
Providential causes."
A number of minnie balls have
been found in the walls of a building
in Baltimore, near where young
Elle rm ey cr waa shot by the Butler
Guards. On Saturday lost, soven of
the negroes composing tho Guard
were committed to prison upon a |
charge of murder.
Ristori was a gipsy. Her father I
and mother belonged to a wandering 1
company. She first appeared on the
stage at two months old, in a basket |
of flowers.
Masonry and despotism, it seems,
cannot exist quietly in the same
country; and so the Spanish au?
thorities are trying to put down Ma?
sonry in Cuba by suppressing lodges.
The Kentucky Grand Lodge of
Odd Fellows reports having raised
the past year over $100,000 for the j
Widows' Home and Orphans' College
at Harrodsburg.
The latest election returns from
Mexico leave no doubt that President |
Juarez has been elected by a large
majority. The vote on tho Convo?
catoria is still in doubt.
The Jews constitute so large and in?
fluential an element at San Francisco,
that Behool holidays and vacations
ure coming lo bo governed by tho
Jewish holidays and festivals.
It is said that the negroes in Louis?
iana are greatly disappointed at the
result of the election in that State.
They say they "can't see how that
'lection hadn't did 'em no good yet."
Tho now Central Congregational
Church building in Boston has cost
$270,000. The pews are appraised
at from 650 to $2,000 each.
It costs $300,000 per month to
"run" the city of New Orleans.

THE TRIUMPH OF AB T 1
MORE TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF
Heinitsli's Queen's^Delight.
EXTRACT8 FROM LETTERS: "The
Queen's Delight is beginning to
awaken the attention of our physicians.
Its remarkable curativo power is seen in
its wonderful effect upon disease. As a
blood purifier, there ia no medicine Uko it
known to the profession. A gentleman
told me that his son has been taking the
Queen's Delight, and is more benefited by
it than by any other medicine. He wants
a dozen bottles."
Extract from a letter: "It is due to yon
to state in this public, manner, in order
that tho people may know the truth, that
I have tried your Queen's Delight, and
found it not only what you said it was-"a
Eure medicine"-but tho best medicine I
ave ever taken for eruptions and general
bad health. I bad an eruption all over my.
body, with impaired digestion and disor?
dered liver, and have tried a great many
medicines without any benefit. I have
taken one bottle of your Queen's Delight,
tho emption ha? disappeared, my appetite
is better, my liver and digestion is im
Eroved. I am satisfied ono or two more
ottloa will cure me."
Extract from a letter: "At tho close of
the war, my constitution was shattered. I
could not eat, sleep or perform any duty
whatever, ?nen was my prostrate condi?
tion. Medicine and medical aid I bad in
abundance, such was my condition up to a
few months since, when I begun the use of
your Queen's Delight. I have used two
bottlon, my constitution is greatly im?
proved, my appetite is good, enjoy re!reti?
ing sleep, ann am able to perform my share
of daily labor."
Extract from a letter-Wonderful effect
of only one bottle: "I have used only a
half bottle of 'Queen's Delight' for boils
and emptions of the skin and itching hu?
mors nf the blood, which annoyed me vory
much. I *m entirely cured. 1 think your
medicine a valuable one."
A remarkable case of liver complaint and
headache cured by the use of "Heinit.-th's
Queen's Delight:" A lady of unquestioned
worth and reputation voluntarily gives tes?
timony of the wonderful effects of this
medicine. Sho has been from carly years
a martyr to headaches, caused by imper?
fect action of the liver, producing intenso
headache and pain over the eyes. She has
taken only four bottles, and assures us of
the perfect cure it has made. She now on
jovs good health.
Still another: "Daring ?-rt spring. I Lsd
bcou troubled with obstinate chills and
fever, which, when cured, left my-System
in a wretched condition, blood innfure, ana
I was afflicted with au angry, and, as I at
one timo thought, an incurable, (mhineous
emption over my entire body. TB? most
violont remedies suggested failed to work
a euro, until, at tho instance of a friend, I
tried Dr. Heinitsli's Queen's Delight. Less,'
than two bottlos cured me, leaving roy skin
in a healthy condition. My general health
is as good as ever. For such purnoaes, I
havo, ever sinco my cure, unhesitatingly
recommended your Queen's Delight."
Don't buy any but the right kind. All
gonnine Queen's Delight has tho copy-right
mark on tho outoido, and it is the only
medicine which produces these wonderful
cures. For sale wholesale and retail at
