'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: uifibis-Beal, .presented biuiself b<sfCVe life examiners, sanguine of success. But he *oon found, to his extreme chagrin, that 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. •one 'be so foolish as to 'believe that the •world is round, and that there are peo pie upon the side opposite to ours, who •walk with their heels upward and their ihcads hanging down,"like flies clinging to the ceiling 1 That the era apartoltthe. world where the tress grow with their fcranches hanging downward, and where 'it rains, bails and snows upward 1” 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 of Adam could have wan so far.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.
