LARGE HOLES IN THE NECK.
An Emigrant called upon us few months
since. who had been troubled with the disease
called "king's Evil" lie had two very large
holes in his neck and his head, body and legs
were covered with the most disgusting and
sickcninc sores We Immediately placed him
under the influence Of the Resolyent. In six
weeks from the time he called upon US every
sore was healed, not even a sore was left upon
his body to remind him Of the Kings Evil"
This man. like thousands Of other deluded
persons, had laid himself Frustrated before two
Emperors, four Kings, and one Queen, to be
touched by the fingers of Royalty, believing
that the hands Of their "most sacred majesties
would drive away the evil" The Renoyating
Resolyent had more power in restoring this
poor deluded victim of a cruel disease, to a
.ound condition Of body, than all the kings and
mouarchs On the earth.

TnE foreign news published under our tele-
graphic head this morning, is full of interest to
every reader. While thepeace prospects as be-
tween the Allies and Russia appear to be on the
rise, the danger ofwar between England and the
United States is more imminent. 1t may be
that the critical condition of affairs between the
two latter countries, may have much more to do
with thenegotiations forpeaeenow going on, than
at first view presents itself. France would not
willingly enter into war with us, and she
wouldbe quite as unwilling to carry on the Rus
sian campaign by herself as she would, in great
measure, have to do, in case CT war between
the United States and Great Britain. =
But probably the most gratifying part of
the news is the great decline in brcadstuffs- =
They have been entirely too high for the de
mand, for two months past, and have only been
