[From Rev. r. Tdlford, Missionary in China.l
WASHINGTON, PeNS., June 25, 1860.
Messrs. PERRY DAVIS 4 Son, Providence, Il. |.
Dear Sirs During n residence of some ten years
as a missionary in Siam and China, found your
Vegetable Pain Killer most valuable remedy for
that fearful scOurge, the Cholera,
In administering the medicine, found II most
etfectua to give teaspoonful of Pain Killer in a
gill of hot water sweetened with sugar then, after
about fifteen minutes, begin to give tablespoon
full of the same mixture every minute until relief
was obtained, Apply hot applications to the ex-
remities. Battle the bowels and stomach with the
Pain Killer, clear, and rub the limbs briskly, OF
those who had the Cholera, and took the medicine
faithfully in the way stated above, eight out Of ten
recovered. Truly yours,
Il. TELF0RD.

New YORK, June 1S.-The indications
that war will soon break out is increasing.
The entry of the Prussians in Holstein is re-
garded by some as virtual commencement
ofthe war. 1t is asserted that Austria re-
CARDS such as a breach of the Gastin Con-
ventiOn, ard the forcible occupation of Hol-
stein as Il causus belli The Duke of De-
Grammond had gone from Paris to Vienna,
and his mission is said to be a last effort for
consideration. He had a conference with
Count Mensdorff, and audience with the EN-
peroror of Austria. MensdoFff is stated to
have positively maintaied the attitude of
the Austrian reply to the conference.
The Russian cabinet courier reached
Vienna on the 9TH, with autograph letters
from the Car to the Emperor.
Bismark has issued an impertinent dis
patch to the Prussian representatives abroad
IN very bitter terms toward Austria, and in
one passage says: GAIL our information
agrees that the determination to make war
is settled in Vienna" On the other hand, it
is asserted that Prussia has been most con-
ciliatory for peace, but the corresponding
feeling no longer exists at Vienna. Not
only was the entire absence manifest of any
readiness to enter into confidential negotia-
tons and discuss the probability of agree
ment, but the expressions of the Austrian
statesmen and counsellors of the Emperor
have been reported to the King from anthem
tic sources, which leaves no doubt that the
Imperial ministers desire war at any price
The London Times Gays such a dispatch
as the above has not often been penned by
any European Minister. The Prussian
statesman seems now to think courtesy I'M
necessary in his communications with Aus
tria. Ali the pride the better. Hostility,
the almost fanatical purpose, which have
been necessarily pursued during the long
negotiations brought forth when negotiations
in Europe were considered at an end The
dispatch breathes spirit of war and seems
to have been written in anticipation of an
immediate rupture. The London Telegraph
says with the dispatch the last hope of peace
has disappeared, and hostilities become in
evitable.

FENIANS.
Examination of Captured Fenians
RumOrs of another Raid.

New YoRK, June 18.-A St. Armand
special says the fourteen Fenians captured
near Pigeon Hill, are undergoing a private
examination. Geo. Howard, an alleged spy,
is under arrest, and it is said the evidence
against him is very strong. Ii is said the
prisoners will be sent to Stratsburg for trial.
A Montreal special to the Tribune says
the special reports Just received at Frelighs-
burg from scouts on the line, hint at another
invasion tonight by the Fenian forces. The
line is picketed by the 4th Rifle Brigade,
9TH Royal Fusileers, 25th Kings Own, and
one battery of Armstrong guns.
A st. Armand special to the Tribune says:
Hints of anothec invasion were caused prob
ably by the movement of Fenians from Ma
lone to st. Adams. Damages at Pigeon Hill
and st. Adams City were large, probably
81 100000.
At the examination yesterday a state of
war against Her Majesty was established.
The prisoner Gilman was identified as
having arms and threatening to shoot several
of the inhabitants.
President Roberts accompanied by Major
Haggerty, arrived at the Metropolitan
Hotel, az an early hour Saturday morning.
The object of his visit is to induce the Rad
ical members of both Houses to give their
support to the resolutions repeating the neu-
trality laws. He has had long interview
with Senators Wilson, Nye, wade, and
Stewart, Speaker Colfax and Congressman
Wilson, Grinnell and Orth, all of whom are
said to have expressed warm sympathy with
the cause represented.
James Stephens has been visited by a
large number of the rank and file of the Fee
nian organization since the failure of the
Canadian expedition.

New YORK, June 1Sth.-The Posts money arti-
Gle says though gold is less active it is still excl
ted and transactions have been ut rapidly vary
ing rates. The loan market is extremely easy. but
inactive. Call loans are easily obtained on first
class securities at 4d6 per cent. Discounts are
scarcely so active, the rates ranging from 81 to
So. The stock market is dull. but irregular in
reference to the rise in gold. Old 5-Zs have risen
to l033s6Dl033I, but persons who have bought them
for shipments find it difficult to sell them for bills
of exchange Railroad shares quiet, except Erie
and Illinois Central, for which there is some for
egn demands
The Commercials money article says the inte-
rest of the market is conferred chiefly on gold and
foreign exchange to old 5-20s. Gold opened with
desperate effort on the part of the bulls, which
succeeded in putting the price to 1917. Holders
however, were found willing to sell any amount at
that figure, this being considered bull move
ment for unloading at high price. The quota
tons fell steadily TO 1927, after which there
a slight reaction upward. The market has no
support whatever on export demands, and judg

CHAMBER OF CoMMERCE.-The regular
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was
held yesterday evening.
The subject of appointinga Flour Inspec-
tor for the city was taken up. Mr.. CHEAT
HAM said that he was opposed to the crea-
ting of such an Office, unless it was for local
purposes-that to have an officer to inspect
-four that had been inspected was superflu-
Gus, and would incur an unwarranted ex-
pcnse.
Mr.. Brown was in favor Of the original
bill and said that he deemed the appoint
ment Of such an officer of the utmost i'm
portance.
On motion, it was unanimously agreed
that the City Council be requested, that, in
passing a bill for the election of Flour In
spector, that it be left optional with the
parties to decide whether or not they will
require local inspector, as it was the opin-
ion Of the merchants comprising the Cham
Der Of Commerce, that 4 bill requiring the
inspection Of all -four would iniure the busi-
ness of the city.
Adjourned till next regular meeting.
