uLE TUNGGHoN, China. Aug. %, 1866.
Messrs Perry DAVIS x Son:
Dear Sirs.-Durlng long residence in
China, have used your invaluable Pain
Killer, both in my own family and among the
Chinese, and have found il most excellent
medicine, In the summer of 90 and 49,
while residing in Shanghai, found it an al
most certain cure for cholera, if used in
time. Indeed, using it in a great many in
stances, do not remember failing in sin
gle case. For three years have been re
siding IN this place, more than fifty miles
from physician, and have been obliged of
ten to fall upon my own resources in cases
of sickness. The Chinese come to us in
great numbers for medicine and advice
Though without medical knowledge our
selves, the few simple remedies we can com
mard are so much in advance even of their
physicians, that We have almost daily appli
cations. We allow them to come, because
it brings US in contact with them, aud opens
door TO usefulness. In diarrhea, colic
vomiting, cholera, coughs, &c. your Pain
Killer has been my chief medicine.
Yours, very truly, I. P. CRAWFORD.

The President and Five Members of the Cabi
net prove Grant to be Liar

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE President in
his letter dated on the 10th, in reply to Gen.
Grants dated On the Sd, says in regard to
the conversation at cabinet meetings and his
report Of the same "There we're FIVE cabinet
officers present at the conversation, the de-
tails of which in my letter of the goth ultimo
you allow yourself to say contains many and
gross misrepresentation. Those gentlemen
heard that conversation and have read nv
statement. They speak for themselves, and
leave the proof without word of com
ment.'
The President proceeds to critic;se a GER
tain position taken by General Grant charp-
ing that the latter's own history of the mat
ter shows that Grant not only concealed his
design from the President, but induced him
to believe that he would carry out the Presi-
dents purposes. The President says: "You

proper course, and you said to yourself, 4
have accepted this office and now hold it to
defeat that purpose. You may have chang
ed your views as to the law, but you certain
~ did not change your views as to the course
you had marked out for yourself from the
beginning" The President says he knows
of no statute that would have been violated
by Gen Grant in carrying out his promises,
ana on the contrary charges Gen. Grant with

order issued by Mr.. Stanton, purportinp to
