Chinese War Vessels.

A firm of English ship-builders is
building two remarkable vessels for the
Chinese navy. The Chinese authorities
designate these two vessels as ram
cruisers, and the title, though somewhat
ambitious, may yet be justified. The
vessels are provided with rams, which,
like the hull, are of steel, and the coal
carrying capacity Is equal to four days
at full speed, or twenty-eight days at
half speed. They are unarmored and
the displacement is only 1,430 tons,
while the speed is fully sixteen knots
per hour. Propulsion is given by twin
screws and the engines work up to O.
400 indicated horsepower. Instead of
carrying only one gun, as in the pre-
vious vessels, these new ships carry two
twenty-six-ton ten-inch breech-loaders,
and four forty-pounder breech-loaders
of the new type. Each of the big guns is
lodged in a species of turret, or circular
splinter-proof screen, one at the bow and
the other at the stern, comforting the
advantage of nearly an ail-round fire.
These guns take a charge of 100 pounds
of powder and fire projectile of 400
pounds, with velocity of 2, 900 feet per
second, the penetrating power being
equal to twenty inches of iron. A YES
sci of the same design has been built by
the firm for another foreign govern
ment, and has been lately tried at sea,
the guns firing heavy charges without
any damage to the vessel or the inachin-
cry. A speed of sixteen knots per hour
was maintained during a run of forty
knots. These vessels will shortly be
taken out to China by Chinese crews,
under the command of Admiral Ting,
who distinguished himself asa General
in the war against the Taepings and was
afterwards made an Admiral. The pro-
duction of vessels capable of carrying
SO powerful an armament, and travel
ing at SO high speed, with so great a
coal capacity, and yet having SO limited
dimensions, is result, says the London
Times, which can not fail to attract
considerable notice.

DIR. Emil Holub. the distinouisbe

DIR. Emil Holub. the distinguished
African traveller and author, is a young
Austrian physician, who has had a wide
and exact scientific training, and who
has had longing to explore Africa
from his boyhood. As soon as his
education was complete he started for
his field of work in as deliberate and
business-like way as if he had gone to
settle down to the practice of his pro-
fession. Indeed, he simply made use
of his medical knowledge to obtain the
means wherewith to carry out what he
seems TO regard as the work of his life
the scientific exploration of Africa.
He frankly tells US that he landed at
Port Elizabeth with only ten shillings
in his pocket; but happily he soon
found friends, and his profession stood
him in good stead.

DR.. j. II. ScHENcK:
Dear Sir-Having been asked by many in
regard to your medicines, and the benefit l
had received from them, have concluded to
give you an account of my case. In the win
ter OF 1873 1 was pronounced an incurable
Consumptive by every physician of this,
place, well as several in Cleveland. had
all the symptoms-cough, night sweats, great
debility ana loss of flesh i was reduced in
weig hit from one hundred and fifty pounds to
eighty pounds. i had given up all hope of
recovery, when / was told by Mr.. James
Seaman that he had used your medicines
with good effect, and he advised me to give
them trial, although do not think he be-
lieved they would cure me, for l was so sick
at this time that no one thought that would
ever get well. thought, however, that they
might give me temporary relief, and with
this object 1 commenced to use your Pull
monic Syrup. ha not taken il two DAYS
before / felt great relief, especially in the
severity of my cough. then took the Man.
drake Pills and Seaweed Tonic, aud in two
weeks my appetite came back, and be gan
to gain strength. took your medicines for
about three months. / was too sick to do
any kind OF work for two years. Your med-
cines made perfect cure and have been in
good health ever since. / do not know that
can say more than this, unless it be that
believe your medicines to be good, and that
they viii do all that you say they will do.
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir-From feeling Of gratitude and
a desire to benefit others, l send you this

your remedies. For over one year my case
seemed hopeless; had night sweats, loss Of
appetite, very severe cough and complete
prostration of my whole system. My ply
sician pronounced my disease Consumption,
i was reduced almost to a skeleton and all
the medicines / took failed to give me any
relief 1 had ful. y made up my mind that
was incurable, when an acquaintance recon-
mended your remedies l had little faith in
them however, having lost all hope, but in a
very short time after commencing their use,
/ found to my great surprise that was get
ting stronger and that my worst symptoms
were fast disappearing. Ipersevered in taking
them until I was restored to perfect health.
assure you that language fails to express the
gratitude 1 feel towards you for your skill in
preparing SO good and great a remedy.
Gratefully yours,

"A woman named Blynn. residing
near Forest Grove, N. j., died the other
day under rather singular circum-
stances. Finding it necessary to have
some teeth extracted, and not liking to
resort to gas or chloroform, she re-
solved to try what virtue there was in
whisky. She called upon c. X. Fish, a
dentist OF North Vineland, to have her
teeth extracted. Before submitting to
the operation however, she drank half a
pint of ordinary whisky, and in few
minutes followed it with half pint of
Jersey applerjack. This mixture of
drinks produced the desired uncon-
sciousness, during which the teeth were
pulled. In short time she revived, but
only to become wild with delirium, her
rawlings having all the appearance of
one in the last stage of tremens. Be-
coming exhausted, she lapsed into a
semi-conscious condition, and, gradual
ly growing weaker, in few hours she

Consumption of the Lungs. l had bad
cough, and was reduced very much in my
weight At different times had seven ply
scians of this place and also one from
Bloomsbury, attending me, and although
they all thought they could help me- grew
worse very fast under their treatment. Twas
compelled to give up all business for two
years, and no one believed, nor did myself
believe, that l should ever get well One
day happened to call at Mr.. Auburn Smiths
Drug Store, in this place, aud picked up one
of your pamphlets. In reading the certif-
Gates of cures, found one case so nearly like
my own that at once concluded to give your
Medicines a trial l bought the Seaweed
Tonic Pulmonic Syrup and Mandrake Pills,
and be yan their use according to the printed
directions, and can truly say, that from the
first saw a marked improvement in all my
symptoms. This encouraged me to continue
their use until l was entirely we'll / have

Dear Sir-In May, 1879. 1 caught heavy
cold, which gradually settled on my lungs,
causing great difficulty and pain in breath
ing. could not rest at night, being kept
awake by coughing. The loss OF sleep and
appetite Mt last reduced me very much-from
1G0 pounds, my usual weight when in health,
to 1873 pounds. 1 took the prescriptions of
physicians, but they did me no good. One
day, while looking over the Cteueldnd
HsrIld, 1 noticed that your Medicines had
cured many cases that were ut least as bad
as mine, aud SD concluded to use them. They
were rather slow in their action at first but
after had used them for a couple of weeks,
l saw that l was getting better; my appetite
improved, the pain and difficulty in breathing
was relieved, and after using eight bottles l
felt that was restored TO perfect health. /
soon recovered my former weight, and have
been quite well ever since. L am satisfied
that owe my recovery entirely to your Pull

Pills Truly yours,
