A    DKK4DFI 1.    FAMI.VG.
The short details given in the telegraphic news of the famine iu India are terrible in their import. From Calcutta
and Bombay the accouute are truly appalling. Iu tbe latter city according to
lbe correspondent of the London Timet,
900 bodies are to be picked up each
morning. The last retartis put down tbe
number of deaths during the week at
over 7000. Tbis, however, gives but a
small idea of the calamity, as a very
much larger number die in the jungle
unknown and ancared for. The total
number per week in and around Bombay,
is therefore put down by the Timet correspondent al 21,000. As Bombay with its
immediate surroundings has a population
of about 700,000, we have 3 per cent, of
the inhabitants cut down by starvation
every week—a rate of mortality that
would clear oat the city and its viciriiy
of every soul in about eight mouths. The
number of deaths is not so great in Calcutta, although this city is a little larger
than Bombay, but the mortality Is sufficiently horrible to make us wonder at the
administration of affairs that proves itself
so incompetent to prevent or alleviate
catastrophes, which seem to be periodical. In a tropical country, where
nature is so lavish in her productions, and
where the wants of man ure so easily
satisfied, it does seem strange that tha
wisdom of those who bave the unobstructed management of affairs should be
unable to avert these direful visitations
either by timely precautions, or by a system of irrigation that would counteract
to a great extent the effects of the
droughts to which certain portions of
India are so subject. The area of the
Presidency of Calcutta is nearly doable
that of Great Britain and Ireland, being
over 221,000 square miles, yet its population is -only one-Wrd greater. Tbe
Presidency of Bombay where the greatest destitution prevails, covers over 131,-
000 square miles,.nine thousand greater
than Great Britain and Ireland, and only
contains a population <of 11,000,000.
England bas dono much far India, but
Ler administration, it is evident, has yet
heavy work before it. The land system
in many places, is still a curse, and tbe
ryot still a wretched crcaturo with no
perpetuity of tenure at a fixed reut. Tbe
greatest opportunity that ever presented
itself to any country for accomplishing
good, says Mill in his history of British
India, was presented to England on her
assuming tbe directiou -at Iudian affairs
—that of giving the immediate cultivators of the soil the greatest interest in
the soil. "A measure," continues the
philosopher, " worthy to be ranked among
the noblest that ever were taken for the
improvement of any country, might have
helped to compensate the people of India
for the miseries of tbat misgovertiment
which they had so long endured. But the
legislators were English aristocrats ; and
arittocratical prejudiceiprevailed." It is
not in India alone, however, that aristocratic stolidity and prejudice have revelled to
the country's detriment. In the govern"
ment of every British colony tbe same
snpercilious ignorance prevailed, until one
colony after another came down to that
flourishing condition which characterises
Vancouver Island and British Columbia
at the present time, and men from the
very necessity of their position, were
forced into a war of aristocratic, or
rather would-be aristocratic extermination. We are afraid with all the recent
improvements in the government of India,
there is still too large a leaven of aristo-
cratii assumption and incompetence iu
the general management,
GRATITUDE-
The officials and those who have received substantial and honorary favors from
Governor Kennedy, are about to get up
a dinner for the especial landation of His
Excellency before his departure. We admire gratitude even iu the breasts of the
parties alluded to; we believe besides that
it has been well-earned; for no Governor
ever stood so warmly by his subordinates
and his parasites, as His Excellent
Governor Kennedy, but we would
advise those gentlemen who are so
desirous of showing their thankfulness
for favors conferred, or who are anxious
hy tlieir feasting adulation to bespeak
favors to come, to confine their demon
strations to  a  purely social  entertain
ment. We bave as much respect for
Governor Kennedy personally as any of
his creatures, aud have no objection to
see any portion of the public show some
little return for gubernatorial hospitalities ; bat we have no idea of witnessing
without « protest, political capital, as is
proposed, being made out of tbis retiring
banquet. Governor Kennedy politically
has lost the confidence of tbe people and
their representatives ; let the former be
careful that they do uot show that vacillation and inconsistency with which they
have been charged by endorsing even by
implication his Excellency's administration.
According to a correspondent of tbe
London Telegraph, iu Garibaldi's army .all

Ayer's Pills
Are particularly adapted to

apparatus, and disease* aria-
tag from Impurity of the
blood. A large part of all the
complaint* that afflict mankind originate In oca of these,
and consequently theae Piiu
are found to cure many varieties of disease.
Subjoined are the statements from aoma eminent physt-
cfana, of their effects lu their practice.
As a Family Physic.
From Dr. E. IV. Carttcright, of Mu> Orleans.
"Your I'ilu are the prince of purges. Their excellent
qualities surpass any cathartic wn possess. They are mild,
but very certain and effectual in thoir action on the bowels,
which in aki s them invaluable to ua In the dally treatment
of disease."
For JArNDicr and all Liver Complaints.
From Dr. Theodore. /Ml, of jVew York City.
"Not only are your Pills admirably adapted to their
piiipi.x" ne an aperient, hut I find their beneficial effects
upon thu Liver very marked Indeed* They have to my
prtettM proved moro pffinttul for the cur* of liiliom enm«-
I'Uuid thnn toy one remedy 1 can mention. I sincerely
rejoice that we have nt leiitrih a purgative which ll worthy
the euiiflUuuco of tlie proJvsaluu tiud thu pooplu,"
Dyhprvkia — Indigestion.
From Dr. Ittnru J. Knox, nf St. Lout,.
"Th" I'H-:■■■ you were khi'l enough to .■■•■nil ine haw been
all used in my practice, and here satisfied me that they turn
tral| «n extmonllnnry medicine. So peculiarly are tbey
adapted to (ho discasus or the human hystom.thnt they Deem
to work upon them alone. I hare enf-ed some cotes ofdyt-
peptiu nnd indift'diim with them, which hail resisted tha
other remedies wh commonly use. Indeed I have expert-
mental I v found them to he sroetMl hi almont all tlw com-
plaluu for which you recommend them."
Dysentery — DiAituntKA — Relax.
From Dr. J. Q. Qre.cn, of Chicago,
" Your !'ii.i.'; have had a lnng trial In my pnirtke. and I
ii"M them in cut emu as one ofthe best aperients I have ever
found. Their alterative effect upon the liver makes then
an excellent remedy, when given In small dnses, for biVattm-
di/sentery nnd dkirrha'tt. Tlieir sugar-coating makes tbem
very acceptable und convenient for the use of women ami
children."
Internal Oiwthuction—Worms—Suppreasion.
i a Phyticm* and Midwtft
" I Hnd one or two Inrge donna of yonr Puts, taken at tba>
proper time, nre excellent promotives of the natural aecro-
tion whin wholly or pttrlUIly mippromfod, and also very ef-
fertuiil to cleanse tho stomach nnd expel worms. They art
so much tho heat physic we havo thut I recommend no other
to my patients."
Constipation — Costivenpjs.
From Dr. J. I*. Vaughn, Montreal, Canada.
" Too much rannot lm said of your Pills for the enra of
cottire.nr.ti. It others of our fraternity huve found tbem
as oflicucimis na I huvo. they tthould join me In proclaiming
It for the h.'iielif of the multitudes who suffer from that
complaint, which, althoiich hail enough in Itself, la the progenitor of others that are worse. 1 believe cottirenttt to
"i iiiinuie In the liver, but your Pillb affect that organ and
cure the disease."
Iupt'RiTiF.s op the Blood —8oropula —Erysipelas — Salt ItiiKirM —Tetter — Tumors
— HuEt'MATIRM — OOKT — NEURALGIA.
From lh. Extkid /hit, Philadelphia.
"You were riirht, Doctor, In saying that your Vnxt pur\fjf
the blaiitt. They do that. I have used ihem of lata years in
my practice, nml agree with your alatements of their efficacy.
They stimulate th» eicrutorW, nud carry off the Impurltle*
that nuiMi'it" In the tl""l, engendering disease. They
Htlmnlate the organs of diction, and infuse vitality and
vigor into the ayrtviu.
»Bm:h raniedles as yon prennre nre a national benefit, and
7011 deserve great credit fur tbem."
Foit Headache—Sick Headache— Fort Stomach— Pii.ba—Dropsy—Plbthora—Paralysis
—Fits —&c.
From Dr. Fdirartl Boyd, Baitimort.
"Dear Dr. Aver: I cannot answer yon wltat complaint!
I havo cured witli your 1'ius hotter than to say all that wt
tter tr.itt xoith a purgative mtdtrine. I place great dependence on nn effectual cathartic In my dally contest witb die*
ease, aud behoving as I do that your Pills afford ot tbe beet
we have, I of course value them highly."
tftj- Most of tbe Pills In market contain Mercury, which,
although a valuable remedy lo skilful bands, la dangarow
in a public pill, from the dreadful consequences tbat frequently follow Its Incautious use. These contain no mercury or mineral substance whatever.
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
Has long henn manufactured by a practical chemist, snd
every ounce of it under liis own eye, with Invariable seen-
racy nnd care. It Is sealed and protected by law from counterfeits, and consequently can be relied on as genuine,
without adulteration. It supplies the surest remedy tha
world has ever known for tbe cure of all pulmonary complaints; for Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Ahtiima, Csoop,
Whoopino Oouoh, Bronchitis, Ikcipieht Oonhumptioii, and
for tbe relief of consumptive patients in advanced stages of
the disease As time makes these facts wider and better
known, this medicine has gradually become the best reliance of tbe afflicted, from the log cabin of the American
peasant to the palaces of European kings. Throughout
this entire country, lo every state and city, and Indeed almost every hamlet It contains. Cherrt Pectoral is known
as the best of all remedies for diseases of tbe throat and
lungs. In many foreign countries It tt extensively used by
their most Intelligent physicians. If there is any dependence on what men of every station certify it has done for
them; if we can trust our own senses when we see the dangerous affections of the lungs yield to it; If we cab depend
on the assurance of intelligent physicians, whose business
Is to know; In short, if there is aoy reliance upon any
thing, then Is it irreftitably proven tbat this medicine does
cure the class of diseases It is designed for, beyond any and
all other remedies known to mankind. Nothing but its Intrinsic virtues, and tbe unmistakable benefit conferred on
thousands of sufferers, mold originate and maintain tha
reputation it enjoys. While many inferior remedies hava
been thrust upon tbe community, hare felled, and been
discarded, this has gained friends by every trial, conferred
benefits on the afflicted they can never forget, and produceq
cures too numerous and remarkable to be forgotten.

Nwr Yohk, Oct 7tli.—The reports of
famine ia India ure confirmed, espi ciully
in the region around Calcutta. A correspondent of the Londou Timet, writing
from that citj under date of August
llth, gays:—The city was being so
crowded with paupers that the municipal
commissioners and merchants bad organized a relief. On Monday a public meeting of all classes was held in the town
hull to raise subscriptions. Reports were
read giving statistics which, completed to
date, show that at 22 Plateabs, 11,415
people are daily fed in addition to the
sick in tt e hospital. Tbis number is increasing at the rate of about 25 a day.
It may be said that 20,000 persons are
now subsisting on charily daily in Calcutta. Reports from Bombay are even
more appalling. Tho same authority:
think of 900 dead bodies being picked np
in the streets of Bombay each morning.
Half the truth has not been told. The
last returns show 1030 deaths in that one
station during the week ending July 31st.
If you treble that number for tbe many
who become the food of jackals and vultures in the lonely jungle or ditch, you
will not go beyond the sad truth. It ie
obvious that the board of health has
ceased to report tbe deaths.

New York, Oct. 6—The Nov York

New Yoke, Oct. 3—The London Re-
vieie has the following: The flow of gold

America, that so fur as investors ure concerned, a renewal of the civil war is eon

A writ of habeas corpus has been
token out and will be argued this evening
before Judge Dwindle, on the ruse of
Thomas Donahue, ehnrgfd with killing
Patterson. It is understood that argument for his release will be the insufficiency of parol testimony as establishing
the fact that he is a fugitive from justice.
Thomas Newman, ofthe firm of Newman
Brothers, dealers iu wooden and willow
ware, who failed on Saturday last, together
with Samuel Light and Frank Happer-
sett, two of his clerks, has been arrested
on a charge of baving set fire to their
store on the loth tilt., for the pnrpose of
recovering $50,000 insurance. Newman
was released on $5,000 bail, and the
clerks ou $1,000 bail each. The appearance of the premises bear unmistakable
proofs of their being set on fire.
The Academy of Music was opened
last evening by the minstrels, baving
among their number Billy Sheppard, the
Ethiopean performer who killed Ben
Ballon at Virginia City some time since.
A large number of Bullou's friends were
in the gallery, and the appearance of
Sheppard on the stage was the signal for
a row, the ocenpants of the gallery hooting and shouting murder, and for a short
time a serious difficulty was feared. A
large brickbat was thrown ut Shepparo
by some one in the crowd, ai i the demonstrations were assuming a serious character, when policemen were procured and
the gallery restored to order, ano the performance proceeded without interruption.
The Stenographic Teleoiiafii— We
learo from tbe Illustrated London News
that two English gentlemen (Captain
Bolton and George Snell, official short*
hand writers to tbe Court of Bankruptcy,
London) " have been found to abbreviate
eveu electric telegraphy, and seem e ch
to have beec busied in inventing a node
of telegraphy which will enable the com.
pany to meet the demands put upon tbem
by their 8ucce>s," and that •' Cyrus Field
is desirous of upp'ying Suell's Fclieme to
the vast and almost interminable laud
wires of the American telegraphs.'' If
this be true, says an Eastern exchange,
and tliere seems uo good reason why a
single sign or signal should not represent
a word as well as a letter, the whole system of telegraphy will undergo a great
change ; less time will be occupied in the
transmission of messages, and it ought
to follow that less money will be paid for
telegrams. When an arbitrary sign represents a word, much time and trouble
will be saved It should be remembered,
too, thut this stenographic action will be
applicable to submarine as well as to laud
telegraphs. Should Field succeed in
adopting it iu the Atlantic telegraph, it
must follow ere long that thu tariff of
prices will be greatly reduced. At present the price is a dollar a letter, but when
a single letter represents a whole word
there will be full room for reduciug tbe

A   NlW  AND   liRAND liroCH   IN   MEDICINE!—
Dr. Mnggiel is the foundc. of a new Medical
system. Tbe qunntitarinns, whose vast internal doses enteeble the stomach and paralyze
the bowels, must give precedence to the man
who restores health and appe.iie, with from
one to two of his extraordinary Pills, and
cures the most virulent Bores wiih a box or so
ol his wonderful and alt healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctors are fast superseding all the stereotyped nostrums of the
day. Extraordinary cures by MHggiel's Pills
and Stive have opened the eyes of tbe public
lo the inefficiency of tbe (so called) remedies
of others, and upon which people have so long
blindly depended. Maggiel's Pills are no ol
ihe class that are swallowed by tbe dozen, and
of which every box lull takou creates an absolute necessity for another. One or two of
Mnggiel 1 Pills suffices to place the bowels in
perfect order, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and render the spirits light and buoy-
anil Tliere is no griping, and no reaction in
the form of constipation. If the live* h affected, its functions are restored; a' d it the
nervous system is feeble, it is invigorated.
This Irtst quality makes the medicines very
desirable tor the wants of delicate females.
Ulcerous and eruptive diffuses aro literally
extinguished by tr.e disinfectant power of
Maggiel's Salve.   In fact, it is bere annoenccd
that Maggiel'M Iii Ions, Dy«|>eplic
anil Dlarillt'a l"i Is cure where all
others fail. While for Burns, Scalds, Chil
blains, Cuts and all abrasions of the skin
.Hagglel'N Salve is imallible. Sold by

Fi.oggtsg Oai:rotti:rs —Tbe Manchester Courier (fives the following account
of tbe flogging of several men wbo were
convicted at the late assiz- s of robbery
with personal violence :—Tbe prisoners
were stripped to the waist, their legs
fastened in a kind of box, and their arms
secured by straps at tbe wrist, leaving
their hands free lo clutch two rings to
whicb tbe straps are attached. The first
brougb' to the post was Michael Flaherty,
aged 18, who was to receive IS lashes.
The prisoner hud forlifiid himself with a
piece of leather, wbich be rolled in bu
mouth, and at every (all ofthe 'oat'
compressed between his tcelh. He writhed
nnd howled piteously, and at the twelfth
stroke cried, ' Oh dear, oh dear, tell mc
whether that is eleven or twelve.' The
alolid and stalwart gaoler who handled
the whip vouchsafed no reply, but repeuf.ed
his blows at the signal from the surgeon,
wilh about halt a minute's interval be*
tiveen ench infliction. The suspense between the strokes seemed ;o add to ihe
agony ofthe torture, leaving time for the
dreaded appreliens.on of the renewal of
the stroke. On being released, the prisoner, who had bowled so fearfully before,
turned round, and said, with the most
consummate impudence, ' Thank you,
gentlemen, my mother often gave me
worse with her apron strings.' The next
mounted was Peter Kelly, who wus a
youth of about 20 years, tall in stature
and muscular in frame. He had been
convicted of highway robbery with violence, and of an attempt to ' choke and
strangle' an old man. He bore the first
three or four strokes with perfect composure, bat throughout the rest of the
cssligution groaned repeatedly at every
stroke. Once, turning round, he snid,
'I'm innocent of this, gentlemen ;' and
when token down ho repeatedly protested
his innocence of the offence for which he
bad been condemned. Ho also received
18 lashes. He was brought into tho yard
as Kelly was taken away, and turning
round, he saw the unsightly lacerations on
his companion's back, and shuddered at
tbe anticipated pain of undergoing a similar disfigurement. Though he uttered no
cry ot groan, every miscle and fibre of his
frame shook throughout the operation.
On being removed, ho also declared h s
utter innocence of the crime imputed to
him. A refractory youngster, who had
refused to work, was next hoisted. At
the lirst stroke he howled, danced, and
shrieked, and continued to do so throughout, protesting tbat he would do any work
if allowed to go.
The Herculbs—During the short
interval which has elapsed since the keel
of this vessel was laid down she bus made
the most rapid progress, and although ths
first piece of iron for her construction
was lowered into tho dock so recently as
the 21st of June last, the vessel is now
almost entirely in frame, and a considerable portion of ber double cellular-bottom
is already completed—a rate of progress,
it wus remarked, w hich was without a
parallel in iron ship building. Tho Her
cules is being built on tbe broadside principle, while lier designs, as produced by
Mr. Reed, show ihat she will surpass
every other vessel of her class in the ele
raents of strength and offensive and defensive powers. She is to be constructed
of 8in. of exterior armour plates, 1 iii) ou
a backing of 12in. of teuk, behind wliicli
will be worked plating of 1 Jin. in thickness over wfiin. of leak und tbo ordinary
| n inner iron skin. Some idea of the
enormous strength may be formed by u
comparison of the Hercules and the Warrior, the latter having a maximum weighi
of 4271b. per square foot; whilu the
weight of the former will be 737 lbs. pur
square foot. It is intended tbat the
Hercules, which will probably bu tho last
of Ihat class of broadside ships the present
Admiralty will sanction tbe construction
of, shall he ready for sea within u couple
of years.

" Give me a place to rest my lever on,'>
lays Archimedes, "and I will move the
world." " Give me pure and unadulterated
drugs," Bays Medicus, of tbe olden time,
" and I will cure disease."
In jno sense, both of these learned pundits
were tbe veriest charlatans. They knew there
was no place to rest their lever on, 'either to
move the world or cure disease. Mechanism
was in a backward state, and the medical profession was but anolbei name for sorcery,
and ull the adjuncts of magic filters and
charms ot the " evil eye," ke.
But these latter days bave borne unto us
something more than oven superstition and
its crew ever dreamt of in tbeir maddest phi-
losopby. In these days of practical science,
what waa theory of yesterday ir lact to-day,
and all the old time notions become as babbles
in the sun, and burst and break wilh every
breath we draw.
Let Archimedes shoulder his lever and we
will find a resting place for it to move the
world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and
toil no more for the drugs he so sorely needs,
for we have them at our hand, ever ready to
serve tbem at bit beck.
Refined in the laboratory of Dr. Juaguel,
the finest materials known in the medical pro
fession are obtainable by any one. His
Billious, Dyspeptic, and Diarrhoea Pills stand
unrivalled, and bis Salve operates with magical effect upon burns, scalds, and all sores and
doers ofthe skin.
In fact, we think Maooul's Pills and Salv»
are the Wonder of this century, and we are
nappy n the thought that many others of our
brethren ofthe cralt aflree with as. Wo would
earnestly counsel that all families provide
themselves with Dr. Maggiel's Prepaiations at
once, and keep them ready at band, so ai to
nae them at the most opportune time and aa
occasion serves.— FeUey Sentinel.

Persons of sedentary bahlts, or those trim-
bled in mind, working iu Factories or Coal
I'its, who cannot obtain thnt amount of frcsi
air and exercise which nature requires, suffer
from weakness and delility, lowness of e*W,\n

renovated constitution, ll is indispensably
necessary that Ihe Ointment should be most
effectunlly rubbed into the complaining par'ji

Children and their Allmrntr.
In no country in the world are more children
cnrrled to an early grave than in Great Britain.
Coughs, Measles, Scarlatina, Fevers, and other
diseases attack the little sufferers, apd death,
hut too often, follows at a rapid pace ; yet if
at the first stage ot these complaints, pareata
were to have recourse to Holloway'a Pills, all
danger would be ntnided. for the stomach
nnd bowels wouM oe gently but effectually
cleansed bv this railu aperient; the depraved
numors correcuo ana tnesecretionsduiy regulated. A perfect cure would *.oon be effected, and the I'ttle patient restored to sobb<*
health.
