A busy man is a locomotive, anil life
a traek. Every nijrltt he drives into
"the house," and stops. Every morn
ing he is tired up anew, and away he
goes switching off in one direction and
then in another, in this routine of
business he forgets that the physical
organization is of the most delicate
kind. If a hard iron locomotive needs
constant care, ami to be well oiled up
and rubbed off every day, how much
more necessary is it tlint all men and
women should use PLANTATION BIT
TERS, which are the ne plus ultra of ev
erything which is necessary to keep
the system in a perfect tone of health.

The Chinese Government having (through the
Hon. Anson Burlingaine) conceded to this Com
pany the privilege of connecting the great sea
ports of the Empire by submarine electric tele
graph cable, we propose commencing operations
in China, and laying down a line of nine hundred
miles at once, between the following ports, viz : j
Population.
Canton 1,000,000
Macoa 00,000
Hong-Kong 260,000
Swatow 200,000
Amoy 260,000
Foo-Chow 1,260,000
W an-Chu 300,000
Ningpo 400,000
Hang Chean 1,200,000
j Shanghai V. 000,000
Total 5.910,000
These ports have a foreign commerce of $900,-
000,000. and an enormous domestic trade, besides
which we have the immense internal commerce of
the Empire, radiating from these points, through
| its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this company proposes
erecting land lines, and establishing a speedy and
trustworthy means of communication, which must
command there, as everywhere else, tbe commu
nications of the Government, of business, and of
social life especially in China. She has no postal
system, and her only means nowofcommuuicating
I information is by couriers on land, and by steam
ers on water.
The Western World knows that China is a very
large country, in the main deusely peopled ; but
few yet realize that she contains more than a third
1 of the human race. The latest returns made to
her central authorities for taxing purposes by the
local magistrate make her population Four huti
dretl and Fourteen millions, and this is more
likely to be under than over the actual aggregate.
Nearly all of these, who are over ten years old,
not only can but do read and write. Her civili
! zation is peculiar, but her literature is as exteu
| sive as that of Eurepe. China is a land of teach
' ers and traders; and the latter are exceedingly
' quick to avail themselves of every proffered facili
ty for procuring early information. It is observed
; in California that the Chinese make great use of
the telegraph, though it there transmits messages
: in English alone. To-day great numbers of fieet
steamers are owned by Chinese merchants, and
used by them exclusively for tbe transmission of
early intelligence. If the telegraph we propose
connecting all their great seaports, were now in
existence, it is believed that its business would
pay the cost within the first two years of its suc
cessful operation, and would steadily increase
I thereafter
No enterprise commends itself as in a greater
degree renumerative to capitalists, and to our
whole people. It is of vast national importance
commercially, politically and evangelically.
stock of this Company has been un
qualifiedly recommended to capitalists and busi
ness men, as a desirable investment by editorial
articles in the New York Herald, Tribune,
