Upwards of 1,100 years before Christ tho Chinese were a people ruled by a dynasty of kings, of wlicm, like the Pharaohs of old, there is no clear history, and not until tho "Chow" dynasty B. C. 1113. is thero any clear history of the main Chinese state-0. The Chinese take their history back to the time or Koah. This very an cient empire has borne in its time many names, for it was tho custom neu a new dynasty ascended the 'hrone to give another name to the mpire, as Hai-que, Charu-qne. Han qn etc., according to tho name of ihe ruling monarch. The true name is said to be Chum-que, 'the center kingdom of tho world." This term was bv usago corrupted to Chi-que, and from this word the Portuguese gave it the namo of China. China proper consists of eighteen provinces, containing 250,000,000 of people. When the British gunboat Wasj, was lost last month, with all save six on board, she was making for Lough Foyle to take tho sheriff and bailiffs to instrahull to evict the inhabitants. The total rental of this speck in the ocean is 18. It is a small island on the seaboard of Donegal, and is well known as the scene of the wreck of the Iris some few years back, when the hardy islanders", at great risk of life and limb, succeeded in rescuing tho passengers and crew of the ill fated steamer. The extreme limit of the islet is three miles and the breadth one and a half miles. It is distant from the mainland about nine miles, and of all the desolate specks of land it is the most uninviting. Sixteen families, with the lighthouse keeper, make up the entire population. Thero is no arable land, and tho sur face of tho ground is formed of rocks. Some of the tenants have never paid any rent, and others are from ten to fifteen years in arears. A precarious livelihood is earned at fishing during the summer months, but owing to the stormy and dangerous nature of the coast in the winter, the islanders go to the mainland until the spring, as there is no fuel to be obtained on the islet. There is only one landing place, and it requires skill and care to run into it in safety. So the at tempt to collect some S90 has cost the British navy thousands of pounds and fifty-two lives. PILES! PILES! PILES! A SURE CUKE FOILND AT LAST! MO ONE NEED SUFFER. A sure cure for Blind, Bleeding' Itching and Ulcerated Piles has been discovered by Dr. Williams (an Indi an Bemedy,) called Dr. William's In dian Pile Ointment. A single box has cured the worst chronic cases of 23 or 30 years standing. Xo one need suffer five minutes after applying this wonderful soothing medicine. Lotions instruments and electuaries do more harm than good. William's Indian Pile Ointment absorbs the tumors, allays the intense itching, (particular ly at night after getting warm in bed,) acts as a poultice, gives instant relief, and is prepared only for Piles, itching of the private parts, and for nothing else. Bead what the Hon. J. M. Coffinber ry of Cleveland says about Dr. Wil Ham's Indian Pile Ointment: I have used scores of Pile Cures, and it af fords me pleasure to say that I have ztever found anything which gave such immediate and permanent relief as Dr. William's Indian Ointment. Hon. Judge W. P. Coons, Maysville, Ivy., says: "I have suffered for years with itching piles, and have used many remedies. I have used Dr. Wil liam's Indian Pile Ointment and been cured while every other remedy has failed." For sale by all druggists and mailed on receipt of price, S1.00.
