ASIATIC CHOLERA IN CHINA.
Almost Every Case Cured With
P PAIN-kILIE r!

Dear Sirs During a residence of some ten
years in Siam and China, as a missionary, found
your Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that
fearful scourge the Cholera.
In administering the medicine found it most
efectusl to give tea spoonful of Pain Killer in
a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar then af-
ttr about fifteen minutes, begin to give about a
tablespoonful of the same mixture every few min
utes until relief was obtained Apply hot appl-
cations to the extremities. Battle the 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.

REV. r. TELF RID. Missionary in China.
Dear Srs During long residence in China
have used your valuable Pain Killer, both in
my own family and among the Chinese, and have
found it a most excellent medicine. In the Sum
mers of 1862 aud 1865, while residing in Shanghai,
found it almost certain cure for cholera, if used
In time. Indeed, using it in a great many in
stances, do not remember failing in = single case.
For three years have been residing in this place.
more than fifty miles from physician, and have
been obliged often 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 ourselves the few
simple remedies we can command much in
advance even of their physicians. that have al
most daily applications. We allow them to come
because it brings us in contact with them and opens
Q door Of usefulness. In diarrhea. collie vomiting,
cholera, coughs, etc., your Pain Killer has been
my chief medicine. Yours. very truly,
REV. 7. P CRAWFORD. Tungehow, China.
Those using Pain Killer should strictly observe
the following directions
At the commencement of the disease, take a
teaspoonful of Pain Killer. in sugar and water and
then battle freely across the stomach and bowels
with the Pain Killer clear. Should the diarrhea
and cramp continue, repeat the dose every fifteen
minutes. In this way the dreadful scourge may
be checked and the patient relieved in the course
Of . few hours.
N. B.-Be sure and get the genuine article; and
Il 10 recommended by those who have used the
Pain Killer for the cholera that in extreme cases
the patient take two Tor more) teaspoonfuls in
stead Of one.
The PAIN-KILLER is sold by all Druggists

A Strange Scene in a Chicago
Church.


"A Chicago letter 10 the New York World
says: "An extraordinary scene occurred
in Calvary Episcopal church on Sunday
last, which has so far escaped notice in the
local press. Rev. j. r. WALKER, the rec
tor, vas noticed BY his corgree alton to be
in apparently III health and to read service
10 the morning with an unusual fee5leness.
When, however, he came to the sermon he
broke down completely, and in few start
ling sentences announced the reason. He
had not dined the day before, he said, a.
he had no money wherewith to go market
ing, and all that be he'd eaten on Saturday
aoa Sunday was bread aud butter aud tea.
When be went home 90 Sunday he was not
sure that he should find that. The congre-
CATION rose and departed without any fur
ther sermon. Calvary parish is not very
lorge-o wealshy one, but it is abundantly
able to support its Incumbent Mr.. WALK.
ER is9a gentleman Of ability, ed ucation, and
zeat End HE case will c,use a sensation
when tie nov made public ~ q 'n
may add that Mr.. WALKER had invita-.
lions TO more dinners on Sunday last tina
he could have eaten in a month but his
parishiouers feel sore upon the subject, and
think that the exposure was not seemly. -
Their neglect is probably owing 10 the fac,
that the rector has q small private income
Of his own, which, however, is fully taken
up in the education Of his children.

E% Mr. A. Ii. Fl. STUART, President
FILLMoRE's Secretary of the Interior, in q
speech at Richmond, Va, few days ago,
advocated the forcibe removal of the ne
groes to San Domingo, and declared his
belief that President GRANTS idea in advo-
eating annexation was TO provide q place
for negro colonization. If tho President,
said Mr.. STUART, ontertains the views
have alluded to, and in the next annual
message he renews the Recommendation of
San Domingo, he will overwhelm his enc.
mics. Mr.. JEFFERSON favored the West
Indies, which he said nature seemed to have
formed as the receptacle Of the blacks trans
planted from the States There they may
have government of their own. a new
career may be opened to them. One half
the money spent in the late war will re.
move every oolOrcd man from the States
May we not hope that II is the spirit Of
God which is moving the hearts of the poo
pie TO some such policy as have mention

is not the case, the conflict Of the ballot box

daughter Of seventeen summers we're taken
out, and, horrible to relate, violated. Neish-
or Of the ladies could bs found until late
Sunday afternoon. An infant eighteen

the horrid deed of infamy.
It is said that when Col DIKLINE was
informed of the outrage, he smiled, and said
his troops were up here for a higher pur-,
pose than arrostiug men for such petty
offence. ANTOINE is believed to have sent
tho creatures up here to give the negroes a
chance for revenge, and one told the writer
that bo had Tight now, under the protec-
ton Of the United States, to shoot any
white man he wanted to, aud to violate any
woman he met. said to him that these
were State troops, and not United States
troops, aud replied that the Col. had said
the night before, at negro ball, that he
wanted all the colored people to come and
see him that now they could do as they
pleased, as they wero under the protection

END OF THE Stokes TRIAL.-The third
trial of EDwARD S. STOKES, for the MUIR
der of JAMES FISK, Jr., in New York, on
the 9th of January, 1872, closed at New
York en- Wednesday, the ooh ult., with a
verdict of guilty of manslaughter in the
third degree. The sentence passed upon
the prisoner consigns bin to prison aud
hard labor for four years. The first trial
of Stokes, ''it will be remembered result
cd in no agreement and the second in con-
viction of murder in the first degree The
result Of this last trial in connection with
the other two affords curious commentary
upon the phases of hum sn, character aud the
mutations of time5"s Judge DAVIS, iu
passing sentence, said: In rendering this
verdict, STOKES, the jury have exhausted,
and more than exhausted all the mercy in
your case. No appeal to this Court can
diminish the sentence from the highest PEN
atty affixed by the statute in the degree in
which you are convicted, aud that is too
light and apparently triting as compared
with the great crime you have committed.
| do not desire TO make any further remarks
on this case, but shall impose upon you all
that the law confers upon me the power to
give, and | only regret that that sentence
cannot be more adequate to the crime which
rests upon your guilty head The sentence
is that you be imprisoned at the States
Prison at Sing Sing at hard labor for four
years. Stokes was then surrounded and
