On more than one occasion dur ing the last 3,000 yoars the bar baric hordes of the east have over flowed their boundaries and have swept " westward, overwhelming the young eiviiir.atioti o Europe and obliterating nearly all the landmarks of western art and progress; and at the present time, if we may credit the Pekiu corTea X)iidoni of one of the Calcutta pa pers, lliore is in China a powerful and rap wily growing party thar aii voeS'S the making of yet another gigantic excuiion toward the. land of the setting: sun.

The great unknown country has been qui escent for so long that it is almost impossible for a Enropean to con template thai the sleeping myri ads should ever again put forth their herculean strength. Yet if China were to awake; if she were to look westward with covetous glance ami once more to burst her J bounds, in response to that mys- i terioiiR impulse which in the east ; occasionally seizes upon a whole j people, how could she be resisted?; According to the ls.st edition o( the IicrolkeniH'j tier Erth she has a population of 434,000,000; and supposing that estimate for it is only an estiicate to lie even approximate!' correct, China could put into the helu more solUiers than there are i-ouls in German' ; aud, if she so willed, could, with a host of highly mil lions, trample all the civilization of Europe beneath her feet.

There have always been quacks : legal quacks, theological quack?, scientific quack?, and medical quacks, Some of thoni arc bland oily fellows who arguo and smilo tho world into believing thoir favorite hit of humbug. Others aro pompous and pretention? parasites Hut they mnko it pay. Mon scout to love to be swindled, stipulating only that it shall be nontly done. Tho dear public aro equally Iibor.il to tho electric and magnetic fraud. This fellow is a genius in his line. Ho will put a magnetic bolt around your waist, a magnetic necklace under your chin, or fit you, out with an en tire suit of magnetic clothe?, warranted to servo tho purpose of ordinary garments, and and at the ?amo timo to euro all diseases. from whooping-cough to hasty consumption. Most of theso havo no more elcctricor mag netic power about them than resides in wool en blankets or in girdles of sackcloth. Only when applied by an expert is electricity of tho slightest use as a medicinil agont, and oven then its value is grossly over-stated. What is tho strongest possible presumptive evidence in favor of a particular romedy? Clearly that it should havo been prepared by responsible 'ersons of acknowledged skill in the treat ment of disease. Squarely on this foundation stands BEN SON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER.
