IME CAPTURE OP VIE CITY OP PRIIIN—SACKING
OF TOE EMPEROR'S PALACE—IMMENSE PLUN
DER, &c.
The London journals are replete with inci
dents relative to the taking of Pekin. It ap
pears the Chinese offered every indignity to
the prisoners they had taken. A correspondent,
who accompanied the army, after noting the
capture of the city by the English and French
troops, thus describes the sacking of the em
peror's palace :
The summer palace is about five miles by a
circuitous road northwest. of this camp, outside
the earthwork. A description of it is given in
&aunt on's ateo
tint of Lord Macertney's Em
bossy, and other works on China, but no pen
can describe correctly the scene that has taken
place there within the last two days. Indis
criminate license has been allowed. The public
reception hall, the state and private bedrooms,
ante-room. boudoirs and every other apartment
have been ransacked ; articles of virtu., of native
and foreign 'workmanship, taken, or broken if
too large to he carried away; ornamental lattice
work, screens, jade stone ornaments, jars,
clocks, watches and other pieces of mechanism,
curtains and furniture—none have escaped from
destruction. There were extensive wardrobes
of every article of dress; coats richly embroi
dered in silk and gold thread in the imperial
dragon pattern ; boots, head-dresses, fans,
; in fact, rooms all but filled with them;
store-rooms of manufactured silk in rolls, such
as may be bought in Canton at twenty dollars
to thirty dollars per piece. By a calculation
made in the rooms there must have been 10,009
or 80,000 pieces. Hundreds were thrown down
and trampled on, and the flaor covered thickly
with them; men were throwing them at each
other, and all taking as many as they could
carry. They were used instead of rope to secure
the loading of carts filled with them. Through- ,
out the French camp were hundreds of pieces,
some heaped up, others used to make tents or
beds and coverlets.
In the afternoon a party of French went
through the apartments with sticks, breaking
everything that remained—mirrors, screens,
panels, &c. It is said that they did so in re
venge for the barbarous treatment the released
prisoners, their countrymen, had received. A
treasury containing a large quantity of gold
ingots and sycee silver is under charge of a
guard, and is to be divided between the En
glish and French. The total value of property
destroyed would amount to a large installment
of the indemnity claimed. In one of the ante
rooms of the state bed-room at the Summer
Palace, the treaty of Tien-tsin, in English and
Chinese, signed by Lord Elgin, was found. It
had been thrown on the ground by some one,
and lay in a heap of broken articles till the
English paper evidently attracted the eye of
the person who discovered it.
A general order from the British commander
in-chief desired that all articles taken by offi
cers and men were to be sent in for sale by
public swam, for the benefit of the army,
which was done. All were permitted to have
the articles they had brought away for them
selves valued, and have the option of taking
or rejecting them. Many beautiful curiosities
and eetteenies were thus obtained at a nominal
price. The sale realized $32,000, which, with
the value of the treasure, estimated at $61,000,
is to be divided as prize money on the spot.
The commander-in-chief and general officers
have waived their right to share_ A gold jug
of great value was presented to the comman
der-in-chief by the army. Nearly all the arti
cles were sold at very high prices, large ena
melled and inlaid vases and ornaments reali
zing full Shanghai prk:es for such articles, the
fact of their having been the property of Hien-
Fang adding an imaginary value to everything.
The scenes where the sale was held, in the
temple Lamisiri, occupied as headquarters,
were worthy of the pencil of an artist. Had
his Imperial Majesty handed over the whole of
the contents of that palace, uninjured, it would
have sold for an enormous amount, more than
three-fourths having been destroyed or taken
by the French.
All round the vicinity of the palace are
large enclosures, parks or cemeteries, with
trees of some magnitude, and many stone
bridges over nullahs, the country being very
dry at present. Branching off from the palace
are seveial paved roads, and just outside of it
is the French camp, by the aide of two large
lotus ponds.
Another correspondent writes of the Imperial
Palace:
No description can give an idea of the splen
dor of this residence. The entrance or recep
tion hall is paved with marble, and painted
with gold, azure and scarlet, in the most gor
geous style. The throne of the Emperor is of
beautiful carved dark wood, and the cushions,
embroidered with gold dragons, attracted gen
eral admiration ; every inner chamber and
saloon was very handsomely fitted up, and the
rolls of silk, satin and crape, all of splendid
workmanship, furnished cummerbunds and
pnggarees for the French soldiers, who appear
to have adopted our custom in this respeet.-.---
The jade stone and china were of great value,
and some Sevres china of Louie Quatorze would
have delighted the eye of many a curious fan
cier; and a presentation sword, with the En
glish coat or arms, studded with gems, and
evidently of antiquity, gave rise tc some spec
ulation. The last treaty of Tien-tsin was also
found, and the immense quantity of booty of all
kinds made it almost impossible to know what
to take away. Some idea of the quantity of
silk may be given by the fact that fowls, old
pots, &c., were wrapped in the most costly
silks and satins. All the ladies had disappeared,
but their little Japanese dogs, something re
sembling a King Charles spaniel, were running
about in a distracted state.
Thirty brass Chinese guns, mounted on the
walls of Pekin, were taken by the victors. The
wall is 60 feet wide and well paved.
The American and Russian ministers followed
the army ; the former as far as Pekin.
Liviwo ix JAP.O7.—A correspondent, writing
from the dominions of the Tycoon, gives the
following interesting information :
"You ask us in regard to our mode of living.
It is simply this :—You rent a house (a moder
ate-sized house costs about $lOO per annum)
with some four or five rooms; one of these, the
front, is the office or counting-room; the next
to the rear is the drawing and dining-room,
and answers at the same time for a private
eounting-room. To the rear of this is the
kitchen. In the upper story one room is occu
pied by yourself, one by the housekeeper, and
the other by the servants, usually young men,
say eighteen le twenty, who are young errand
boys, &c. Your housekeeper, who, by the way,
is generally a pretty black-eyed young lady,
is very attentive to your wants. On her de
volves the whole charge of the house, procuring
the provision; washing the clothing, and cook
ing the food, besides keeping the whole house
thoroughly clean. Her services cost you her
board and about fifty to seventy five dollars
per year. The whole expense of my family,
including house rent, pay of housekeeper end
servants for the last year, has been only five
hundred dollars—some difference between this
and the cost of living in the same style in
Philadelphia."
The gaoler of the Bristol (England) prison,
has devised an improvement of the tread-mill.
The prisoners, at every step they take, call up
to view a letter or word, and are thus taught
the alphabet and reading while they are at
work. By degrees, says an English paper, they
become.able to read a chapter in the Bible.
There was a rumor in England that an agent
of the French Government had been deputed
to make an offer for the purchase of the Greet
E as t ern . It was was afterwards, however,
stated that the vessel would never, under any
circumstances, be allowed to fall into French
hands.

THE AMALGIAM&TION OF LINGUAGSS.—There is a growing
tendency in this age to appropriate the most expreasive
words of other languages, and after a while to incorporate
thorn into our own ; thus the word Cephalic, which is
from the Greek, signifying rtfor the head," is now becom
ing popularized in c !nnection with Mr. Spalding's great
Headache remedy, but it will soon be used in a more gen
eral way, and the word Cephalic will become as common
as Electrotype and many others whose distinction as for
eign words hag been worn away by common usage until
they seem "native a to the manor born."

IEY.e/Isinkeris is the favorite sign by [which nature
makes known any deviation whatever from the natural
state of the braic, and viewed is this light it may be looked
on as a sal eguard intended to give notice of disease which
might ctherwise escape attention, till too late to be reme
died; and its indications should never be neglected. Head.
aches may be clamifial under two names, viz : Symptoma
tic and Idiopathic. Symptomatic Headache is exceedingly
common and m the precursor of a great variety of diseases,
among which are Apoplexy, flout, Rheumatism and all
febrile diseases. In its nervous form it :is sympathetic of
disease of the stomach conetituting sick headache, of he
patic disease constituting bilious headache, of worms,
constipation and other disorders of the bowels, as well as
renal and uterine affections. Diseases of the heart are very
frequently attended with Headaches; Anaemia and plethora
are also abalone which freanently occasion headache...
Idiopathic Headache is also very common, being usually
distinguished by the name of nervous headache, sometimes
coming on suddenly in a State of apparently sound health
and prostrating at once the mental and physical energies,
and in other instances it comes on slowly, heralded by de
pression of spirits or acerbity of temper. In moat Malan
cos the pain is in the front of the head, over one or both
eyes, and sometimes provoking vomiting ; under this class
may also be named Neuralgia.
For the treatment of either class of Headache the Ce
phalic Fills have been found a sure and safe remedy, iv:die
ting the meet /teats pains in a few minutes, and by its subtle
power eradicating the diseases of which Headache is the
unerring index.
BRIDGUT, IffintS you to send her a box of Cep—
MUM Glue, no, a bottle or Prepared Fills—but minx.
ing that's not just it naither ; but perhaps yell be slither
knowing what it is. Ye see she's nigh dead and gone with
the Sick Headache, and wants some more of that same as
relaived her before.
Druggist —Yea mast mean Spalding's Cephalic Pills.
Bridget.—Oeh f awe now and you've Red it, here's the
quarth3rand giv me the Pills and dont be all day about it
either.
Constipation or Costiveness.
Ne one of the iimanv ilia &eh is heir toll jeep prevalent,
so little understood, and so much neglected as (loitivenese.
Often originating in carelessness or sedentary habits ; it is
regarded as a slight disorder of too little consequence to
excite anxiety, while in reality it is the precursor and
companion of many or the most fatal and dangerous dis
eases; and unless early eradicated it will bring the sufferer
to an untimely grave. Among the lighter trifle of which
coettrences is ttre missal attendant are Hshe l Golfe,
Rheumatism, Foul Breath, Piles and other s be nature,
while a long train of frightful diseases such as Malignant
Fevers, Aboesses, Dysentery, Diarrhcea, Dyspepsia, Apo
plexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Illphehondrlasis,
Melancholy and Insanity, first indicate their presence in
the system by this alarming symptom. Not untrequently
the diseases named originate in constipation, bat take on
an independent existenee unless the cane is eradicated in
an early stage. From all these considerations it fellows
that the disorder should receive immediate attention when
ever it occurs, and no person should neglect to" get a box
of Cephalic Pills on th.." first appearance of the complaint
t
as their timely nec will expel the insidious approaches of
disease and destroy this dangerous foe to human life.

TWIENTY HELLIONS Of DOLLARS Spa lding
has sold two millions of bottles of kis celebrated Prepared
Glue and it is estimated that each bottle saves at least ten
dollars worth of broken furniture, thus makmg an aggre

household word; he now proposes to , do the world still
greater service by curing all the aching heals with his
Cephalic Pills, and if they arc as good ac his Glue, Mad
aches will soon vanish away like snow in July.
Mr OVER. TVLOITEMENT, ant the mental care and anxiety

Bufferars by this disorler can always obtain Speedy relief

Pills whenever the symptoms appear. It quiets the over

T HE ONLY DISCOVERY
WORTHY OF ANY CONFIDENCE FOR
RESTORING
THE BALD AND GRAY.
Many, since the great discovery of Prof. Wood, have
attempted not only to imitate his restorative, but pro
fess to have discovered something that would produce
results identical'; but they have all come and gone, be
ing carried away by the wonderful results of Professor
W 0 o die preparation, and have been forced to leave the
field to its resistless sway. Rend the following;
BATH, Maine, April 18, 1859.
PROF. 0. J. Woon & Co.: Gents :—T he letter I wrote
you in 1856 concerning your valuable Hair Restorative,
and which you have published in this vicinity and else
where, has given rise to numerous enquiries touching
the facts in the case. The enquiries are, first, is it a
fact of my habitation and name, as stated in the com
munication ; second, is it true of all therein contained;
third, does my hair still continue to be in good order and
of natural color? To ail I can and do answer invariably
yes. My hair is even better than in any stage of my life
for 40 years past, more soft, thrifty, and better colored;
the same is true of my whiskers, and the only cause why
it is not generally true, is that the substance is washed
off by frequent ablution of the face, when if gam were
used by wiping the face in close connection with the
whiskers, the same result will follow as the hair. I
have been in the receipt of a great number of letters from
all parts of New England, asking me if my hair still
continues to•be good ; as there is so much [rand in the
manufaetUre and sale of various compounds as well as
this, it has, no doubt, been basely imitated, and been
used, not only without any good effect, but to absolute
injury. I have not used any of your Bestorative of any
account for some months, and yet my hair is as good as
ever, and hundreds have examined it with surprise, as I
am now 61 years old and not a grs hair in my head or 012
my face; and to prove this fact, I send you a lock of my
belr taken off the past week. I received your favor of
two quart bottles last summer, for which I am very
I grateful: I gave it to my friends and thereby induced
them to try it; many were skeptical until after trial,
and then purchased and used it with universal success.
I will ask as a favor, that you send me a test by which I
can discover fraud in the Restorative, sold by many, I
fear, without authority from you. A pure article will
insure success, and I believe where good effects do not
follow, the failure is caused, the impure article, which
curses the inventor of the good. I deem it my duty, as
heretofore, to keep you apprised of the continued effect
on my hair, as I assure all who enquire of me of my un
shaken opinion of its valuable results. . . .
I remain, dear sirs, yours, A. 0, RAYMOND.
AARON'S RUN, Ky., Nov. 30,1858.
Paw. 0. J. WOOD : Dear Sir :—I would certainly be
doing you a great injustice net to make known to the
world, the wonderful as well• as the unexpected result I
have experienced from using Ong bottle of your Hair
Restorative. After using every kind of Restoratives
extant, but without success, and finding my head nearly
destitute of hair, I was finally induced to try a bottle of
your Nair Restorative, Now, candor and justice compel
me to announce to whoever may read this, that I now
possess a new and beautiful growth of hair, which I
pronounce richer and handsomer than the original was.
I will therefore take occasion to recommend this fis.
valuable remedy to ALL who may feel the necessity of it.
Respectfully yours, BEY, O. ALLEN BROM.

AN aperient and Stomachic preparation of IRON pnri•
114 of Oxygen and Carbon by combustion in Hydrogen.
Sanctioned by the highest Medical Authorities, both in
Europe ant the United States, and prescribed in their
practice.
The experience of thousands daily proves that no pre
paration of Iron can be compared with it. Impurities of
the blood, depression of vital energy, pale and otherwise
sickly complexions, indicAte its necessity in almost every
conceivable sass_
Innoxious in all mlladies in which it has been tried, it
has proved absolutely curative in each of the following
complaints, viii:
IN DEBILITY, NERVoIIS AFFECTIONS, EMACIATION, DYS
PEPSIA, CONSTIPATION, DIARIUMRA, DYSENTERY, INCIPIENT
CONSUMPTION, SCROFULOUS TUBERCULOUS, SALT HAMM,
RIISMENSTRuer/oN,Wurres7CELC.Ptata. LIVERC.S44LAINTS,
CHRONIC HEADACHES, RHEUMATISM, INTERMITTENTFEVERS,
PIMPLES ON THE PACE, &o.
In cases of GENERAL Damn?, whether the result of
acute disease, or of the continued diminution of nervous
and muscular energy from chronic complaints, one trial of
this restorative has proved successful to an extent which
no description or written attestation WOUld render Credible.
Invalids so long bed-ridden as to have become forgotten in
their own neighborhoods, have suddenly reappeared in the
busy world as if just returned from protracted travel in a
distant land. Some very signal instances of this kind are
attested of female Sufferers emaciated victims of apparent
Mala£ll2llll3, sanguineons exhaustion, critical changes, and
that complication of nervous and dyspeptic aversion to air
and exercise for Which the physician has no name.
In Nsavous AFFECTIONS of all kinds, and for reasons
familiar to medical men, the operation of this preparation
of iron must necessarily be salutary, for, unlike the old
oxides, it is vigorously tonic, without being exciting and
overheating; and gently, regularly aperient, even in the
most obstinate cases of costiveness, without ever'being a
gastric purgative, or inflicting a disagreeable sensation.
It is this latter property, among others, which makes it
so remarkably effectual and permanent a remedyfor Piles,
upon which it also appears to exert a distinct and specific
action. by dispersing the lobe' tendency which formethem.
In DYSPEPSII, innumerableas are its causes, a single box
of these Chalybeate Pills has often sufficed for the moat
habitual cases, including. the attendant Costiveness.
in unchecked Dukattriml, even when advanced to WEIN
MIRY, CONCITMEC, emaciating, and apparently malignant
the effects have been equally decisive and astonishing.
In the local pains, loss of flesh and strength, debilitating
cough, and remittent hectic, which generally indicate IN
CIPIENT CONSUMPTION) This remedy has allayed the alarm
of friends and physicians, in immoral very gratifying end
interesting instances.
In SosoruLous Tossuoutosm, this medicated iron has
had far more than the good effect of the moat cautiously
balanced preparations of iodine, without any of their well
known liabilities.
The attention of femaleileannOt be 'WO Cerindently invited
to this remedy and restorative, in the cases peculiar'' , at
fecting them.
In Rizensurism, both chronic and inflammatory—in the
latter, however, more decidedly—it has been invariably well
reported, both as alleviating pain and reducing the swel
lings and stiffness of the joints and muscles.
In INTILIIMITTENT Tim& it mast necessarily 1•e a great
remedy and energetic restorative, and its progress in the
new settlements of the West, will probably be one of high
renown and usefulness.
No remedy has ever been discovered in the whole history
of medicine, which exerts• such prompt, happy, and fully
restorative effects. Good appetite, complete digestion,
rapid acquisition of strength, with an mammal disposition
for active and cheerful exercise, immediately follow its use.
Put up in neat flat metal boxes containing 50 pills, price
60 cents per box ; for sale by druggists and dealers. Will
be sent free to any address on receipt of the price. All
letters, orders, etc., should be addressed to

ENORMOUS BUSINESS FOR ONE. NEW YORK MERCHANT .--•
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality.
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant's extensive business, although it will well re
pay any stringer or citizen to visit UDOLPHO WOLFE'S
extensive warehouse, Noe. 18, 20 and 22, Beaver street
and Noe 17, 29 and 21, Market&id OU - set. Nit steak ci
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1838 to 1858; and ten
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wines,
Scotch and 'lrish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix Rum,
some very old and equal to any in this country. Ile also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wines, &C.
in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for bottling.
Mr. WoI.FE'S sales of Schnapps last year amounted to
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in
less than two years he may be equally succeed' with
his Brandies and Wines. .
His business merits the patronage of every lover of
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines said
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr. WOLFE, until every Apothecary in the land make
up their minds to discard the poisonous stuff from their
shelves, and replace it with WoLtm's pure WINES and
LIQUORS.
We understand Mr_ WoLFs, for the accommodation of
email dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a merchant,
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of op
ponents in the United Stites, who sell nothing but imi
tations, ruinous alike to human health and happiness.

The attention of Invalids, Physicians, Clergymen,
scientific men, and the public generally, is respectfully
solicited to the merits of this chemical preparation, con
taining IRON, SULPHUR, AND PIDISPHOROI7IB, and
which is identical in its composition with the Emetic
Globule, or red blood. In all diseases accompanied with
DEBILITY,
pale countenance and nervous derangement, analyses of
the blood show a deficiency of the red globules. Ruddy
complexion and a rosy tint of the skin, is always indica.
tive of health ; while a pale, wax-like skin and counts.
nanee,—which evinces a deficiency of the red globules,
accompanies a diseased organism. Preparations of IRON
have been given for the purpose of supplying the red glo
bules, but we contend that IRON alone, SULPHUR alone,
or PHOSPHOROUS alone, will not meet the deficiency
in every case, but that a judicious combination of all
these elements is necessary to restore the blood to its
normal standard. This point, never before attained, hat
been reached in the BLOOD FOOD, and its discovery
ranks as one of the most scientific and important of the
age. Its effects in
CONSUMPTION
are to soften the cough, brace the nerves, strengthen the
Byptem, allay the prostrating night sweats, increase the
Ora cal and mental energy, enrich the blood by restoring
the lacking red globule; increase the appetite, restore
the color, and clothe the skeleton frame with flesh. The
BLOOD FOOD mill be found a specific in all CHRONIC
DISEASES of the THROAT or LUNGS, each as Asthma,
Bronchitis, Coughs, &c. Public speakers and singers
will find it of great utility in clearing and strengthening
the vocal organs. In Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints , ,
Dropsy, Epilepsy, paralysis, gcrofula. Grave!, Sc, ro
tus' Dance, Fever and Ague, &c., its efficiency is marked,
and instantaneous. In no class of diseases, however, are
the beneficial effects of this remedy so conspicuous as is

We have the utmost confidence in recommending the

vitality cr energy; and to those whose mental Of bodily
powers are prostrated through overuse, either of Um

for. With the above remarks, and with the numerous
