'he Chinese Irruption—Scene
‘ tt St. Louis-
The MlasGntfßopnblican of the 29th,
h mentioning thefOgPrival-of (Jhinene la
k<rerß bound for 'Texas, furnishes the
r oll<)wing parages:
At a late hour the train arrived the
iepot, and the Chinese thronged out on
the platform. They appeared to be
quite small in statute, their ages being
Irom twenty five to thiity. There were
a few quite young boys, and three or
Poor men over forty years <I t Most of
them carried long sticks, which are
used f<-r carrying their baggage, the
stick being balanced on the shoulder,
and the baggage being divided
pended in front and the rear. They
have the queue or “pigtail” appendage
of twisted hair, in some cases cui led
about their hats, and wore a loose
Llouse, but, with few exceptions, the
whole attire was like that worn by or
dinary laborers, Birt the dark, almond
hade eyes and olive colored courite
mnee, and whitish hue, tinged with
>range and vermilion, showed the pecil
iar characteristics of the Chinese raee.
On the platform commenced a violent
clamor when the baggsge-wr.fi claimed,
ind the scene almost beggars descrip
tion. The confusion was like bedlam
>roke loose. '1 he entire party clustered
about the door of the baggage car, and
rSbfttimied for a long time to pull, shove
and squeeze each other; and, chatter
ing, scolding and swearing in broken
English, making a din that was heard
several Weeks away. It was tike th,e
gtjrtrftfble' of unruly children, or the
quarling among Indiaus when dividing
their rations- The police hovered
around, I btit when told that this was the
manner of the Celestials, they thought
best not to interfere. At length two of
the leading men witli strong voices as
cended to the top of the car, and com
manding some sort of attention, the
baggage was shored up to them from
the 1 doory when they tossed it into the
titled, arid after eibh' paek-fcge was
tossed about like a ball for some tittle,
it at length found an owner. One of
he men in charge said that a similar
Beene occurred qp the route at each
transfer of baggage. He said that at
Ogden two men had hold of a pan whiefr
each claimed and they pulled and haul
ed nntil they tore it to pieces. The
party were then marched down to the
steamer Mississippi, commanded - Cap
tain Ned Green, where they weut
aboard. The steamer will leave this
evening for New Orleans.
A little before .12 o’clock, these Chi
iamenj'l47 all told, begwrrto arriveaf
the boat. In appearance, by torchlight,
their features seemed more of a cross
between the .Indian aud the Mexican
than anything Vise. ''Some of them wore
common black wool hats, while others
wore the regular Chinese straw hat,
which very much resembles an old
Dutch straw bread basket. Each of
them carried a of them
two—in which were done up their weer
ing apparel, bedding, etc. It is not
assuming too much to say that many oi
these bundles would weigh from 150 to
300 pounds, yet they trotted along un
der this weight with more ease than
“barbarians” (as thay call us) would
qnder 25 pounds. Their bundles were
all wrapped up it» a kind of matting—
the same kind as that which comes
around tea chests or cinnamon bales.—
As soon as tbey-arrived on board the
boat and we-ie-ehawn-baefc-to'the quar
ters assigned them, they prepared for
sleep. Their bundles were unrolled,
and the matting spread out for then
beds. .The inner part of their bundles,
oHwbatever made up, eferved-as pillows,
while coarse blankets and their coats
served as covering. Their rice kettles
■oiypots and what few 1 other primitive
Utensils they possess or carry with them
wereeoatteied around promiscuously,
and amid bales and boxes, and barrels,
and a hog or two, they disposed them
selves to slumber, dreams and rest
All ia all, they are a queer looking set
of people —queer in their habits, iqueer
in their language, and may work a
vjoeer revolution in the labor of this
country, and a test of which is now beiDg
made in the West, and with these two
huudred and forty-seven, soon to be
tested in the South.
Columbus and the Savants-
This interview was to the enthusias
tic adventurer an hour of intense yet
Bolemn exaltation. Deeming himself
the Heaven-chosen instrument for the
most important of earthly enterprises,
even 6i rdysklty could not daz
zle him. The King, shrewd, sagaicous
and ambitious, was excited by the idea
of discoveries and acquisition which
would place Spain in the foreground of
-all vthe natfcfts. 'With characteristic
caution he declined forming any judg
ment himself, but appointed a council of
the mo6t learned astronomers and cos
mographers of the kingdom to hold an
interview with Columbus, carefully to
examine his plan and report their opin
ion. The conference was held in a large
k hAll in the old convent of St. Stephens
at Salamanca. The assembly; con.
vened by royal missives, was imposing
tia numbers aud in dignity. Exalted
functionaries of the Church, professors
->in the universities, and statesmen, of high
rank, presented an array which must
’have-overawed.any plain man of ordina
ry capacity. 'Columbus, a simple mari
ner, with unaffected majesty of demean
or and of utterance, and with every fi
•lire of his soul vibrating iu .the intensity:

Beamed men may be full of prejudice
mud bigotry. His statements were as
sailed with citations from the prophets
otod Psalms, and with extracts from the
•religious writings of fhe’Catholic fathers.
The declaration that the earth was round'
<was declared to be absurd.
“What 1” exclaimed several of these
•sages of the fifteenth century, “can any.

But the doetrine of Columbus was
stigmatized not only as absurd, but al.
bo heretical, since to maintain that (here,
ware-inhabitants in those distant lands
would be an impeachment of the Bible,
as it was deemed impossible that any

The Pet Lion-
About a hundred years agb there Was
a grektf fetng who bad a fancy for col
■ leering'wild beasts of every description,
and made a largo garden for ti&rn,
“stub rtJWtriof irorr*cages along the wills
"bn either not far from his palace,
which is still to be seen at the present
day. And the other kings and princes
who live near him, knowing his taste in
this way, used to send him presents 'of
strange animals'ev&i-y now" and then,* 1 !!’!
he had quite a large menagerie of them.
At lust there came to him one day a
present, a little lion-cub, no biggcit ban
a dog, which was said by tbe'trtiin that
brought it to be of a very rare breed ;
and the Utile beast gentle and
playfeHbafrtfit*Mr.g i tl'ibughr it would
be a very good idea to keep him for a
pet, and instead of locking him up in a
cage, to let him run about the palace.—
So the man who brought him got a hand
ful of gold pieces, and went away very
well contented; only saying, “Mind you
don’t let him scratch y<ou; for ff - fee-onee
tastvb human blood, lie’ll be- worsetbtin ,
any liorFia the ’•deshrl.’’
So tbe little cub had his rough "coat
washed and combed, and a ribbon tied
round bis neck, and was fed every day
wvtlf’great pieces of raw beef; and at
night he slept oil a warm carp* t by tbe
king’s.bedside. tT He would ’follow his
master all over the palace, and put his
nose into the king’s hand in‘search *6f
something to eat; and-at dinner he would
sit up and beg like a dog, with bis fuD*
ny little eyes turned sideways to see il
there’was anything good coming for
him; aud altogether he made a iamous
pet.
"This wno-wl! Very well as he
remained a cub ; but when be became a
full-grown lion, strong enough to break
a man’s back with one blow'of his paw,
the gentleman of the court begau to
thiuk that he bad better be that up.—
Indeed, to meet an enormous lioa-art eve
ry turn, who might take a fancy'to bite
tone-’* bead 6tT at any moment, was not
very pleasant for anybody. But the
king would not hear of shutting him upj
so things went on as before.
At last, one night, as be lay asleep,
with the lion stretched upon the carpet
by his bedside, the king had an extra
ordinary dream. He dreamt that -he
was having his velvet coat brushed by
-his-servant, and that the man suddenly
began to draw the brush across his mas
ter’s hand, hurting him not a little.—
The king cried out, but tbe brushing
still continued till at last it grew so paiu
ful that he started, and awoke.
;Attd* whWdicHiesetf'? >Ah' I-his dream
was not all fancy; for- the lion, reared
on his hind paws'against the-elde*of the
bed, was licking the hand which hulfig
down over the coverlet; and his huge
rough tongue, fraying the skin, had just
begun to make it bleed. And then it
might have been seen how the old sav
age nature awoke all at once, after ly
ing hidckii'fw-yewrs'! At'the-first taste
oHiumah blood the lion’s mane had be
gun to bristle like iron wire, and his
teeth grated agrainst each other, and
his eyes were fixed on the tking-’s face
with a fierce, hungry look, which made
them glow in the dim light like two live
coals. It was a terrible moment; but
the king was not easily terrified, and
sa w instantdy'Ms otdy'w&y -of escape.—+
He knew that if he attempted to move
the hand which the lion was licking, the
beast would be upon him in a moment
so quietly slipped bis other hand under
the pillow, where his pistols always lay,
and, still looking the lion straight in the
face, be aimed right between the two
glaring eyes—fired—and the huge beast
rolled heavily over upon the floor.
Aud after that the king never again
■tried to -featee ‘a ! lion .—London Kind

THE SOUTHERN
HEPATIC PILLS, -
That old, long known and well tried remedy
for a,y Bilious diseases, caused by a
LIVER.
tsr Read the following Certificates from persons
of the highest respectability.;^®!
LIVER COMPLAINT.
Rev. Dr. C. F. Deems, (Aug. 23d, 1862.) says:
“ I have derived great benefit from these Pills, and
have known mauy families jand. individuals AW
bare found them very beneficial, and I have also
known physicians in excellent standing to recom
mend them to their patients. For all diseases aris
ing from disorders of the liver, I Relieve they are
the best medicine offered to the public/'
Rev. John XV. Potter, Snow Hill, N. C., (JaD. 5,
1863,) says : “ For t velve years I was a great suf
ferei. My liver was diseased. I lost my flesh and
Strength, and my skin seemed changed in its color
by the bile with which my system was overcharged.
I became subject to (requent and violent attacks of
bilious cholic, every attack leaving me weaker than
its predecessor. The physicians had been able to
patch me up a little, but my health was in a deplor
able state ‘I bad taken patent medicines unj.il I
was tired of them.- Without enefyy ov'orrtnfor't, If
was barely able to go about a little At length I
yielded to the earnest persuasion of a friend and
commenced taking tbe HEPATIC PILLS, with no
confidence in them. They acted like a charm on
me. From that hour I have improved. I have
persevered in their use, until now, by God’s bless
ing, lam w-ell and hearty. I had a negro man,
who. as I believe, was saved from death by a dose
Os these Pills. My Doctor’s bill ryas anpualjy from ■
slWti>*s2oo, but I have had no'use’for a physician
since. I can confidently recommend them as a su
perior family medicine.
DYSPEPSIA.
S. D. Wallace, Eso., President of the _Wi!miog-.
ton & Weldon’Radroad, (Aug. S'VfS^.fijays: . “It
been said that Dyspepsia is our national dis
ease. However this may be, it caused me long and
severe suffering. Providentially a triend furnished
me with a few boxes of the Hepatic Pills, and the
use of them has perfected a cure. In my family
they have been used frequently with eminent suc
cess. Among my acquaintances many cases origi
nating from diseased liver, have been relieved and
cured by them. I regaTd them an invaluable med
icine, and lake pleasure in forwardiffg•thfe'Tdl'unta
ry tribute.”
A W. D. Tayler. Esq., Petersburg, Va., (Jan. 12
1859,) seya: •* In the Spring of 1858, I was attack
ed with Dyspepsia to such an extent that all my
food of every description disagreed with me. I
was swollen so 1 had to loosen my clothe?, and
night after night I could get no sleep, tried one
or two physicians, and took a good deal of medi
cine, but found no relief. I purchased one box of
the Southern Hepatic Pills, and ..the fin-t dose 1
took I felt relieved, and continued until I took the
whole box. lam now entirely well, and'eat hear
tily, and never have been attacked since. I can
safely recommend these Pills to the Dyspeptic and
the community at large.”
If you are threatened with Pneumonia, read the
following from Oapt. W. P. Davis, of Petersburg,
Va.: “ Sympathy for the suffering prompts ,me to
certify that-my Servain 'aftm was suffering in the
last stage of Pneumonia, throwing up matter and
blood in great quantities, his case was considered
entirely hopeless, so much that there was no
mpdical prescriptions;used for h'is recovery'; ,1 re
garded him as good as dead. Hearing of the great
cures made by theSouthernHepatic Pills, I thought
that I would try an experiment on. him'; without
any hope of success, however, I gave the Pills in
large doses; in a short time, to my great surprise,
there was a change for the better; I continued giv
ing them to him, until he became a perfectly sound
man. He is now attending to his work with as
much strength and vigor as he ever did. With his
case, and what I have seen and heard of the good
effects of theße.-PiUs.-I 'flw.'pHfst recom
'fhend them as the best family medicine I have ever
seen or used.”
They can be sent to any point in the United
States by Mail or Express.

rpHE SIMMONS’ LIVER'MEDICIN B, prepared
1 by J. H. Zeilin A Cos., of Macon, Ga., has
proved to be a spurious imposition. The recipe
by which they prepare it is made public, and many
others have rights to prepare it besides themselves.
>For proof ofnis, see the articles from John G.
Guice the following letter from Jas, R. Chiles,
the last letter on the subject from Rev. J. QwJoues,
dated August 14,1869, the letter of Rev. F. B. Da
vies, and others.
For these articles apply, by letter, or otherwise,
to Dr. M. A. Sti£M&NS, at iuka, Miss,, or any one
who sells his Liven-Medicine, which is the'first
medicine ever called by that name, and the only
genuine “Liver Medicine.”
* Forsyth, Ga , Oct. 4, 1869.
Db.tJ. A. Simmons, luka, Miss.:
My Dear Sir—l use the present means of dis
charging a duty which I believe is due my friends,
and all whom my name might influence.
About six years ago I became acquainted with
C.,A- Simmons, and bought from him a “Liver
Medicine,” which he brought from the up country,
and which I found a perfectly safe and reliable com
pound, and eminently suited to the class of diseases
for which it Was recommended. Last, tear I saw
Mr. Zeilin, of the firm of J; H. ZeiliD, & Cos., who
told me that he had bought Dr. C. A. Simmons’
recipe at a very high price—five thousand dollars
—and finding that I had used the Simmons medi
cine in mx family, and was very muchtpleascd with
ft^kgnlkedbievfoq iMy . fc'drtlpcate. This I gave
him cheerfully, thinking to'help him along in a
business calculated to prove a great blesiing to
the human family. Since he began to manufacture
it, however. 1 am satisfied he bas not the medicine
I used ; for Laving tried it thoroughly, I do not
find that it produces the same effect. I am, more
over, satisfied thati,C, A. Simmons did not put up
the medicine I bom*htfrom him, but procured it
from bis relatives or for it Zeilin'
had bought from him the recipe'by which that
medicine was made and honestly followed it in the
manufacture o' that which he now puts before the
public, I knowj we should have had a different
thing, and one more worthy the public confidence.
1 am anxious to repair the wrongs I have dt)ur the i
public by that certificate so hastily given, Ynd
thus put you in possession ol the above facts, which
you may use as you think proper,
Very respectfully,
• \ -i JAMES R. CHILES.
Dr. M. A. Simmons’ Vegetable Liver Medicine is
more highly recommended as a sure remedy for
diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Bowels—for all
diseases arising from a torpid or deranged state of
tbe Livei—than anv other medicine in the whole
world is fpr atiy disease,class v of diseases, whaj-,
ever. It has,more. Certificates,. eutUbelter onc3,
from exactly tbe rig Jit class ofpeople, than any oth
eroiedficine- -Consequently, ihere are more of a
certain class of men trying to counterfeit it, steal
its reputation, and get money dishonestly upon its
good name, than any other medicine.
Be particular always to wrttwor ask for Dr. M.
A. Simmons’,Liver Medicine. Every of tbe
geiihibc is enveloped in a steel-plate engrave wrap
per, containing tbe miniature and auti graph ol tbe
proprietor. When you get a ; ox preserve the’
