REMARKABLE CURES BY ZESoN LASGr.oIs,

our parish has been known for many
years for his unparalleled success i'll the
cure of chronic diarrhea, dysentery and
bloody fux. The many remarkable
cures lie has effected of these diseases,
pronounced incurable by the medical
profession, attest the truth OF the above
remarks. His system of treatment he
learned more than forty years ago from
the Indians, and by which he accomp-
lished his own cure of chronic dysen-
terry of eleven years standing. Since
then many persons have applied to him
when they had failed to obtain relief
elsewhere, and he has invariably sue,
ceeded in mastering every case.
We take the liberty of writing the
above because many persons who may
be suffering from some of the above dis
eases, when relief can be obtained from
no other source, might be Immediately
cured by calling upon him at his resi-
dence on False River. @#H

IMNIGRATloN THIS YEAR.-The prospect
Of great emigration this year-far
that Of 1858, and at least
equal to that of Sis beginning to be
realized. The number of emigrants ar.
rived at this port during the week end
ing the 18th uIt., was 7l2S, making a
total of %, ,329 since the commencement
of the year. The arrival of 1000 per-
sons day is something that has not
often been seen since the best mouths OF
wear before last. The rush Of the past
week may be partly attributed to the
recent favorable weather, but all our
foreign adviees warrant the belief that
it is the beginning Of a general STAN
pede to this country like that which oc-
Cured in the flush times previous to the
great revulsion. The European war
will contribute largely to swell the tide
of emigration hitherward.--N !. JsHT-

We have had sickening rumors for n

sand and hills, and without IA road at all
that they were reduced almost t"

upon prckly pears and such few wild
tonions and other edible as they could
pick up, and also that they helped bury
several persons WHO died from starva'
ton.
The agent of the stage company
brought us in word that he picked :.
starving man some fifty miles from here.
or an Arrapahoe Indian brought him i'll
to the stage line, J who had come across
from the Smoky Hill route, which his
company had started OH, and tried t"
: follow: that when found, he was IN Il
F most wretched condition, and reduced
to skeleton from starvation. His
name is Blue, and he is from Nhltesidc
county, Ill. There were three brothers
of them-frst, one died, and the two re-
naming ate from his body, after they
had been rendered senseless from ema-
fciation. The second brother died and
was nearly eaten up by the survivor.
j Tile stage agent went out and buried
the remains of the second or youngest
of the brothers, but could not find the
