Submissive suppose some people are
fooled by sharpers to invest money in gift
enterprise swind!es, but it seems to us that,
after the experience of the past. a man must
be green indeed who goes cent on any such
scheme. The country is fall OF them, of
which the following circular received by one
of our citizens is sample:
CLARK, WEBSTER Co., Bankers,
NO. 81 BROADWAY, NEW YORK,
Managers of the
BANKERS AND MERCHANTS GRAND FERMENTATION
ENTERPRISE.
NEW York, January Is, 1861
Dear Str-
You are hereby notified that one OF your
tickets has drawn gold watch valued at
$500. Five per cent on this amount viii DC
$1,000. This amount of assessed per centage
must in oil be sent on receipt OF this notice.
with directions by what Express you wish the
Prize sent.
Yours respectfully,
CLARK, WEBSTER Co.
This circular was addressed to citizen
of this place, who never had any tickets in
the swindle. Besides explaining the man
ner of drawing &C., &C., (all humbug of
course) the circular says:
"No Encouragement should be felt
by ticket holders who do not draw
mammoth prizes at the beginning, as,
by this plan of drawing, the largest
prizes are as probable to be drawn last as
first, and, until they are drawn, each ticket
holder having numbers in the wheel has his
chance repeated with every number and cor
responding prize which is taken from the
wheel"
Of course there is no such firm as "Clark,
Webster & CO., bankers, 62 Broadway, n.
Y" no drawing and no prizes-but some
villain gets the circular printed then hunts
up, in directories or newspapers, the names
of individuals; then sends them a circular
like the above, and if anybody is green
enough to send the $40, that will be the last
of it.
There was one of these swindlers, named
A. A. Kelley, who hourished awhile in
Chicago, and then went to New York where
he now is. \ Mercer county paper recently
had the following in regard to his swindle
viz:
some of the enterprising business men of Keths
burg has package of A. A. kelley's "Gift En-
terprise" tickets. Some days ago he received 6
letter from that concern stating that there wa,
81 200 subject his order, and modestly request
ing that the sum of $3.50 be sent forthwith, Il
secure the amount and defray incidental expenses
Our friend thinks Kelley ought to understand
business relations well enough to deduct tn,
| amount required, and forward the balance with
out delay indeed he will be happy to aeknowl
edge the receipt of Sll92 so at Mr.. KS earlies
convenience. But as to renting the s. 80, ''no
much as he knows on"

Asiatic Cholera IN China.

TuNGGHoN, China. Aug. %, 1866.
Messrs PERRY DAVIS j. SoN:
Dear Sirs.-Durlng a long residence in
China, I have used your Invaluable Pain
Killer, both in my own family and among the
Chinese, and have found it most excellent
medicine, In the summer of 80 and 1913,
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 a sim
gle case. For three years l have been re-
siding IN this place, more than fifty miles
from a 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, and opens
| door to usefulness. In diarrhea, collie
vomiting, cholera, coughs, &C.. your Pain
Killer has been my chief medicine.
Yours, very truly, T. P. CRAWFORD.

A MIsrAKE.-The Rock Island ARGUS is mis-
taken, worse, when it alleges that the article
in the Gazette of last Thursday describing the
Arsenal Clock was copied from the ANGUS
Davenport Gazefte, 2Sfh.
The ARGUS alleged no such thing. Here
is what we said, and we ask the Gazette to
permit its readers to see it, as follows
THE CLoCK.-On the 7th of January, the
ARGUS published detailed description OF
the Arsenal Clock. A few days afterwards
the Davenport Democrat copied the article,
duly credited. The Gazette waited about
two weeks and then wrote description of
its own. Last week the Chicago Tribune
stole the Gazette article and published it as
original. And this morning fthe 27th1 the
Union republishes the article credited to the
Tribune. The Union is an enterprizing pa.
