The PAIN KILLER is by universal consent al
lowed to have won for itself a reputation un-
surpassed III the history of snedi al prepara-
tons. It's instantaneous effect in the entire
eradication and extinction of Pain, in all its
various forms incipertal to the human family.

mony of the masses in It's favor, have been and
are its own best advertisement.
REV. W. B. JACOBS:
NEWARK, N. J :, June 6, 1869
Messrs. Perry Davis Il Son Gantloncn =
Allow me. unsolicited, TO send YOU a word of
commendation for your Pain Killer. | have
used it in my family these several years. and
fonnd it all it claims to be. For Rheumatism.
Coughs Colds. Bures, Cholera tendencies and
difficulties. as well rs diseases generally that
prevail in families. regard the Pain Killer as
beyond all price. and as efficacIous beyond
any medicine within my knowledge. We
keep it as our chief family medicine aud find
its use in ordinary cases worth more than any
doctor. The testimony of others among my
acquaintance and friends is equally fayora-
able. Many clergymen have spoken of it in
the highest terms as family medicine. Mis-
sionares in repeated instances have said to me
in person and in their letters, that the Pain
Killer was by far the best medicine used in
heather lands, and they use it for themselves
and families, and administer it TO others
around them Thus mnch | am inclined to
say az an act of Justice to yourselves; and as
benefit TO others. You are at liberty to use
this testimonial, if of any ser ice

The recent circular Of the Secretary Of the
Treasury permitting, under certain prescribed
conditions, the renewal Of commercial inter.
course with the seeded states. is obviously a
STEP IN the right direction. General HAtLEcK
had already issued proclamation regulating the
commerce of the Southwest, bat Secretary
CHAsE's order is more general and national in
its effect, and Indicates that the Government
will be actua'od by no illiberal policy 10 dealing
with the Southern States whom armed opposition
shall disappear.
The Post Office had already followed ths al
vance OF our arms, and it Is fitting that Com.
mereO should not lag behind. Con.
nercial intercourse, though under necessary
restrictions at first, will do much 10
diistpSe sectional feelings, and the bitterness
OF warfare. In little while every impodm ent
will be removed, and commerce become entire.

Z this, but IL Is gratifying to know tina. the in.

tbofity, that Nashville had not been in our y ,es
ession two day whom several messages we're re
ceiyod from parties in that city, by our New

mercisl transactions
1t is proper TO observe that this action Of the
Government oes not authorize the renewal Of
commercial intercourse with the Southern ports,
or In any way interfere with the blockade.

This ia demonstrated in the case Of Deliw re-

Good News From tho NOrth-A IIuIr

SUR ISLAND, MISS, Feb. 20th, 1862.
The gunboat Saxon, which arrived today
from Boston, steamed directly TO cur wharf,
was discharged in eight hours, received coal and
water, and was ready for return in twelve hours
after arrival. The steam frigate Niagara, has
again arrived at our port, on her way 10 which
she was met by little saucy schooner of the
Rebels Of only fifty tons burthen, which mis-
to- k the Niagara for the unarmsd transport
steamer Constitution. The schooner hoisted
her flag, ard fired a shot al the big frigate.-
The Niagara replied with a she'll, so accurately
sent that il fell upoa her decks, which il co u
pletely cl, AIRED, blew out the masss of the ves-
sci, and KILLED three Of the crew.
On the 18Th the u. \. gunboat South Caro-
lima brought into port the rebel steamer Mag
hOlis, with cargo Of cotton on board. The
Magnolia had started from New Orleans, with
gIea. col tidence in her speed, intending to run
the blockade, but The steam ffigate Brooklyn
gave chase, and the rebel boat being hard
pressed, tried TO moko Noble or Pensacola.
Meeting the South Caro- ina, the rebels gave up
the idea Of saving tteir vessel, and ali hands
except the captain and engineer took 10 the
small boats. The engineer then threw into tho
furnace a barrel VI rosin, with the intention OF
bursting the boiler and stood all ready 20 run
for the boats, which remained at one tide OF the
vessel to receive him. Unluckily for him, he
rushed to the wrong side Of the steamer, and
while flying to the proper side, the explosion
came, ard the escaping steam scalded him TO
death. The vessel was but little injured by the
explosion, and the remains OF the engineer were
brought to shore and buried with solemn re-
sp,ct. Although a rebel, his bravery excited
the sympathy Of he troops, and they almost
mourntd his sad fate. The captain and crew Of
the Magnolia thirty in number-were
all taken prisoners.
TIE New LoLdon has justed steamed into the
harbor with ten captured fishing and oyster
smaCks in her train. We are getting filled up
with prizes and the good people OF Dixie, here
abCuts, will sOCn be short of water conveyauces.
The Saxon brought the glorious news from
Kentucky of the battle Of Mill Spring, which
contained general rejoicing also a barrel of
ewsIapers-nO less welcome among which are
full files Of the Sun. These we're eagerly sough.
