ces a riot among the Irish laborers at ...als•
dorf, and the burning of several houses, barns,
and a number of cattle. The Reading battal.
ion had proceeded to the scene of disturbance
HARD QUESTIONS.—The Allies and the
Russians recently allowed each other an armi.
stice to bury their dead. The officers and soh
diem of the respective combatants mingled
with each other, smoked cigars and cracked
jokes, the Russians spitefully asking when the
Allies intended to take Sevastopol, and what
time they expected to leave. As soon as the
armistice was over the parties went to work
again cannonading each other fiercely.

DEATH SE MORRISIT;OSTRETII.—The Eas

date for Governor, in 1848, at his residence in

CHOLERA ON THE UPPER MISSISSIPPL-A
letter from Capt. Chas. Hay, of the steamboat
Vienna, states that there is considerable chole
ra on the Upper Mississippi, and that every
boat has several cases, some as high as eight
or ten, on every trip. On the last trip down
from St. Paul to St. Louis, a 'nail named D.l`.
Putney, from the Allegheny river, died of chef.
era on the Vienna. He had with him some
money and five hundred bushels of wheat.—
Cholera also exists at Jefferson barracks, near
St. Louis, and as the warm weather advances
it is to be apprehended it. will prevail in that
region quite extensively.
WANTED-AMERICAN:3 TO TAlttl SEVASTOPOL.
—The London Times has an article strongly
squinting towards American recruits, and
which concludes as follows:
'We should have little difficulty in raising,
50,000 men for the year 1858, but they aro
wanted for the year 1855. As the cause in
which we are lighting is a common one, there
can be no reason why we should not accept
the cooperation of others wherever it can be
lawfully obtained, and (I the Americans can
show us the may to take ,Sevastopol ire should
be quite ready to learn and glee them every
credit for the lesson.
Si2T^The body of a colored boy was found
in the river below town on the Bth inst., by ,
some boys who were out fishing. Ife-was np
pnrently about 18 years of age, and from the
fact that he had a largo gash in the neck, some
cuts on the arm, and was enclosed in a sack,
there is no doubt he met his death by violence.
An inquest was held over the body by Coroner
McCord, and the jury returned a verdict of
"Death by violent !minis unknown." There is
a rumor that a boy answering the above in
some respects is missing, and that another with
whom he was at enmity absconded some time
ago, but thus far tee cannot truce the story to
an authentic source. The probability is that
he met hie death in n towpath struggle, which
are by no means unusual among the lower class
of boatmen and drivers.—Lcivistoica Gazette.
Taoutu AMU. Tile STUDENTS.—The Leba
non Whig has on account of a riot at Hano
ver, between the students of Dartmouth Col
lege and the cadets of the Norwich Military
School. It seems that some difficulty had oc
curred, wherein the cadets felt themselves in.
suited, and crossed the river in skiffs to seek
redress. The college students met them
promptly, and quite a battle ensued, in whirls
the cadets were vanquished by the superior
numbers of the students. Finding themselves
worsted, the cadets drew their knives and pis
tols, and were about to wage deliberate war,
when the officers of the college interfered,
Meanwhile, the college boys set the boats adrift,
and thus cot off all retreat to the cadets, who
were obliged to travel a long distance to regain
the western shore of the river. The stutter is
to bp investigated.
BRIGRAM YOUNG AND THE GOVENOILSIIIP OF
UTAll.—Brigham Young has been making a
chareteristie speech at the Great Lake city, in
which he rants aud raves over the prospect of
his ramoval, and abuses the United States offi
cers that have been sent to the territory, in the
filthiest language. There is considerable cun
ning exhibited in the following passage, ex
tracted frolic a speech made by Brigham Young
to "the saints :"
"If the gallant gentleman who i 3 now in our
midst had received the commissson of gove
nor of this territory, ns was reported, and ac
cepted it, I would have taken oir my hat and
honorned the appointment ; this people would
have been just as passive and submissive to
him as ever they could be to me. That I will
warrant and vouch for. But for a man to
come here and infringe upon my individual
rights and privileges, and upon those of my
bretheren, will never meet my sanction, and I
will scourge such an ono until he leaves ; I am
after him. But I will say, to the praise of the
gallant gentleman referred to, if there was go
ing to ben gr:tleman called upon to be our
govenor, that there is not a man under the
Kingdom of God that I could hasten to sooner
and feel mom confidence and cordiality to
words, than to hint. I wish this meed of praise
could be awarded to every eflicer iu the Gov.
ernment, but it cannot. We have some of the
most corrupt, damnable, mean curses here that
over disgraced the earth, some even wish to
carry the holy sanctuary in one hard, and a
jug of whiskey in the other."

GREATEST MEDICAL DISCO
' VERY OF THE AGE.
Dr. Kennedy, of Roxbury, has discovered in one
of our common pasture weeds a remedy
that cures
lEWEIV rilditi - t?
tlio worst scrofula down to a common pimple.
Be has tried it in over 1100 eases, end never
failed except in two cases, (both thunder humor.)
Ile has now in his possessicin over two hundred
certificates of its vittoe, all iv ithin twenty miles
of Boston.
Two bottles aro warranted to cure a nursing
sore mouth.
One to three bottles will core ti e worst kind
of Pimples on the face.
T oor three bottles will clear the system of
Itiles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Erysipelas.
One to too bottles are warranted to cure all
himor in the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure running of
the ears and blotches among the hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted.to cure cor
rupt and running ulcers.
One bottle will Ctn.(' scaly eruption of the
Two to three bottles are warranted to curs the
worst case of tingworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the
most desperate case of rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the
salt rheum.
11. F. lIASLETT,
Adjutant.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case
of scrofula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first
bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the
above quantity is taken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of
this in the vicinity of Boston. I knew the effect
of it in every case. So sure as water will extin•
guish fire, so sure will this cure humor. I never
sold n bottle of it but that sold another; alter a
trial it always speaks for itself. There are two
things about this herb that appear to me surpri
sing ; first that it grows in our pastures, in some
places quite plentiful, and yet its value has never
been known until I discovered it in 1846—second
that it should cure all kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise
and great popularity of the discovery. I will
state that in April, 1853, I peddled it and sold
about six bottles per day—in April, 1854, I sold
over one thousand per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have
been in business twenty and thirty years, say
that nothing in the annals of patent medicines
was ever like it. There is a universal praise of
it from all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept It strictly for
humors—but since its introduction as a general
family medicine,
great and wonderful virtues
have been foundin it that I never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which
was always considered incurable, have been en
red by a few bottles. 0. what a mercy if it will
I prove effectual in all cases of that dreadful mal
ady—there are but few who have more of it than
I have.
I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of whom
aged people cured by it. For the various disea
ses of the Liver, Si-k Headache, Dyspepsia,
Asthma, Fever and Ague, Pair kin the Side, Dis
eases of the Spine, and particnlarly in diseases
of the Kidneys, &c., the discovery has done more
good than any medicine ever known.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best
you ean get and enough of it.
DinacTioNs ron Use.—Adults one table
spoonful per day—Children over ten years (les
sen spoonfull —Children from live to eight years
teaspoonfull. As no directions can be applica
ble to all constitutions, take sufficient to operate
on the bowels twice a day.
