II- Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for |

III Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
10 the public is attracting great attention. NOT only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials to
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are so great number of people who are af-
ficted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. DIR.
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy Of his ''rem-
edy," is physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and,we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease, which
has been so long needed has attractedthe attention
of all sufferers from headache who have heard Of it,
From our own knowledge Of DR.. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have no doubt that the med
icine deserves the favor il receives, and that il will
prove TO be great benefit TO all who may give il

OANTON lHhEATENED.---lH e Onluu MuU says.
The gangs of banditti known by the general
designation Of Triads, which have for some
time been causing so much misery throughout
the province of Kwangtung, surprising villages,
towns and even cities, but hitherto easily dis
pcrsed by the military, have latterly concentra-
ted their forces at Fatshan, and with the assist
ance Of the rabble have taken that populous
city, spreading CONSERVATION among the we'll
disposed all over the country, and which has
even extended to the Chinese merchants in
Canton itself-so much SO, that more than a
hundred females of the better class, including
the family of Puntinqua, left in the Canton the
other day for Macao, whilst crowds of respecta-
BILE people are leaving the city in every direc-
ton.
The Canton and the Sir Charles Forbes be-
tween them them took to Macao about 900
Chinese, and the Spark, we are told, has been
chartered for q single trip from and to Hong
kong at 81 200. The Tartar has brought to
Hongkong FIVE laos of treasure, and great
many Chinese, among whom are many ladies !;
one family--that Of Howqua of at
least seventy members; and Eesing, with his
family, is expected here o-day. And while so
much wretchedness prevails on shore, piracy
on the river exists to an extent hitherto I'M
known, promising speedily to put an entire
stop to trade. Even the Hongkong harbor
boats are afraid TO 60 outside the port, and
boatmen who, a month ago would gladly have
earned So in carrying dispatches to Canton,
Camsingmoon, or Macao, will scarcely now
perform such service for any amount.
This sad state Of affairs has not risen from
any insurrectionary movement among the peo-
Pile, but from general herding of the rnffians,
who 30 much abound in this region. We are
creditably informed that there is a general or
ganization Of the triads throughout the whole
south Of China, and though no alarmists, we
fear there will be serious work before they are
put down. 9A

fourth cheaper than they are in this city. This
being the fact, il is wonder TO us that some man
Of means aud enterprise does not buy thousands
OF bushels OF the vegetable abroad, bring them
hiiher and retail them for, say, one dollar bushel

Quoting expenses Of freight He could make ar
