The SCIENCE OF HEALTH AND THE ART
OF HEALINa.-HENITsH' CELEBRATED
QUEENS DELIGHT puts every man in pos
session of the means of improving his
own health. Disorders of the Stomach,
Liver and Bowels are very numerous.
The Stomach is the great centre which
influences the health or disease of the
system-abused, debilitated by excess,
indigestion, offensive breath and physi-
cal prostration are the natural conse-
quences; allied to the brain, it is the
source of headaches, mental depression,
nervous complaints and unrefreshing
sleep. The Liver becomes affected and
generates bilious disorders, pains in the
side. &c. The Bowels aympathize by
costiveness, diarrbea and dysentery.
The great power of the HE1N1TsH MED1-
CINE is on the Stomach. The Liver,
Lungs, Bowels, Kidneys participate in
the recuperative powers and regenerative
operations of this great MEDICINE. To
sick and feeble we advise trial. Al

IHE MISSISSIPPI STEAMBOAT RIoT.-A
horrible affray occurred on the steamer
Dubuque after leaving this city, this
forenoon, which terminated in the kill
ing of two negroes (deck hands) and one
raftsman, and the badly wounding of two
or three Others. AS near as I can learn.
the trouble originated as follows: Fifty
raftsmen came on board the boat ut Da-
venport, and the clerk ordered two of
the negro deck hands to stand guard at
the gangway, while he assorted the deck
from the cabin passengers, and not to
allow any one to pass without his permis-
sion. One of the raftsmen tried to pass
the guard and make his way to the cabin,
when the deck hand ordered him back
until his ticket was examined by the
clerk. He, not liking this. commenced
pitching into the deck hands, who got
the best of him, when the raftsmen, to
the number of over 100, came to his res
cue, stabbing and beating the two deck
hands until about dead, threw them into
the river, and male an assault on the
rest of the deck crew, succeeding in kill
ing three more of them, and throwing
their bodies into the river. One of the
raftsmen was also killed in the melee
making six in all killed.
AS soon as Hampton was reached
Captain Rhodes landed the boat, when
the raftsmen drove the deck crew
ashore, injuring several of them with
stones. AS soon as it was over, they
went aboard the boat and ordered the
captain to proceed up the river, or they
would burn his boat. He being in their
power, and fearing they would carry
their threat into execution, headed the
boat up. stream, and in the meantime
telegraphed to the sheriff here, who
chartered an extra train and left with n
large force of men we'll armed. They
overlook the boat at Clinton, and imme-
diately took possession of her.
On their arrival here. there were c, 1000
people on the river bank, together with
the crew who were driven off the boat,
and with their and other portions of the
crews assistance they succeeded in re-
cognizing forty-two of the men, who
were taken to Jail under strong guard.
A large force is posted about the jail,
and no further trouble is expected.

"A GLOOMY PRoPHECY. The Hickman
(Ky.) Courier announces, the death of
Miss Susan q. Godsey, known as the
sleeping wonder. The fact is we'll au-
thenticatgd that Miss G. had been, for
twelve years previous to her death, in q
state of coma, or sleep. This disposi-
ton to constant sleep was produced 10y o
severe attack OF chill and fever, since
which time she only woke at intervals,
once or! twice q day, remaining awake
for but o few minutes. On the day Of
her death she made one or two predic-
tions. which are given by the Courier for
what they are worth. One was that the
sun would be totally eclipsed on the 7th
of August, fact Of which she could not
have had any knowledge, as her friends
assert. Another was that ''the sun would
never, shine as bright after that day, +"
which will indicate that the end of the
world is speedily approaching. Whether
constant sleeper is better qualified to
predict future events than wide-awake
prophet. is q point we win not pretend
to decide.

we do not attribute much Importance
to the reported Fenian project for
another invasion of Canada. The or

little vitality, and the administration,
which has shown so much vigilance of

will. no doubt, if necessary, guard with
equal care its neutral obligations towards
England, in view of the importance of
making our conduct consistent with the
argument we have been holding with the
British Government on that subject,
growing out of the Alabama claims. The

Irish Church Bill. looks significant and

Mutilated currency is redeemable by

officer. "tl -
Notes presented for redemption, the
abrasion or loss of substance from which
does not exceed one-twentieth of their
original proportions, will be redeemed as
whole notes. <'.]'
l. Fragments OF notes will not be re-
deemed in full, except when proof is ad-
duced by. affidavit that the missing parts
OF such notes have been totally destroy
ed, and stating the cause and manner Of
destruction. Less than half of n note is
not redeemable at all, unless accompa-
MED by such affidavit when presented by
the holder. The character of the affida-
Wit must be certified to be good by ma
gistrate or other public officer.
2. In tue absence of such affidavit
fragments OF notes, exceeding by mea-
surement one-half their original surface,
will be redeemed in their original pro-
Poftiou 10 tne WnOle note, reckoning, as
general rule, by twentieths.
.. INITIATED notes which have been
torn, no matter how much, but of which
oil the fragments are returned-or de-
faced, no matter how badly, so that it
Is certain they are genuine--will be re-
deemed NJ their full face value on pre-
sentation.
4. Fragments of legal tender notes,
for which less than the full value has
been paid, will be retained six months,
to enable owners to return to the Trea-
sury missing parts of such notes, and re-
ceive the amount previously withheld.
Such return should give the date of the
letter from this Office transmitting the
