PERRY DAVIS A SON, Providence, Rhode Island Dear Sirs : During a residence of some ten years as a missionary in Siam and China, I found your Vegetable Paln-Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge the Cholera. In administering the medicine, I found it most effectual to give a teaspoonful of Pain-Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar; then, after about fifteen minutes, begin to give a tablespoonlul of the same mixture every minnte nn til relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities. Bathe the bowels and stomach with the Pain-Killer, Clear, and rub the limbs briskly. Of those who had the Cholera and took the medicine faithfully in the way stated above, eight out of ten recovered. Truly yours, R. TELFORD. If attacked with Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or Cramp Colic, do not delay the use of the Paln-KilleT. Sold bv all medicine dealers. Price 25 cents, 50 cents, and Jl per bottle. augs dim Storage.

THE ELECTION E KRLN ti TOUR.

A!D JOHXSON IN CLEVELAND. AN EXTRAORDINARY. SPEECH. Isn't Certain that Lincoln's Assassination was " Unfortunate." ASKS THE PEOPLE TO HANG STEPHENS AND PHILLIPS. BI LLYISC THE PEOPLE. Some Questions Asked which the Village Alderman Can't Answer. Our di&patches record the progress of the Presidential party from Buffalo to Cleveland. From the papers of the latter city we take the following account of the President's speech. It is an excellent campaign document and we commend it to the attention of our readers. After the formal welcome had been given to the Chief Magistrate by F. W. Pelton, President of the City Council, Andrew Johnson stepped forward and thus he spoke: Bellow Citizens; It is not for the purpose of making a speech that I now appear Deiore you. l am aware ot the greai curiosity which prevails to see strangers who have notoriety and rlistiiKjtion in the country. I know a large number of you desire to see GreneraT Grant, and to hear what he has to say. IA voice: Three cheqrs for Grant. ' But you caunot see him to-night He is extremely m ' ; ' -T ; I repeat I am not before you now to niase a speen, put simply to make your acquaintance to say how are you, and to bid you good bye. We are on our way to Chicago, to participate in or witness the laying of tne corner stone ot a monument to the memory of a distinguished fellow citizen who is no more. Tt is not necessary for me to mention the name of Stephen A. Douglas to the people of Ohio. Applause. 1 am free.to say I am flattered by the demonstrations I have witnessed, and being flattered, I don't mean to think it personal, but as an evidence of what is pervading the public mind, and this demonstration is nothing more nor less than an indication of the latent sentiment or feeling of the great masses of the people with regard to the great. question. I com before you as an American citizen simply, and not as the Chief Magistrate clothed in the insignia and paraphernalia of State; being an inhabitant of a State of this Union. I know it has been said that I was an alien; (laughter, and that I did not reside in one of the States of the Cn ion, and therefore I could not be the Uuiei Magistrate, though the Constitution declares that I must be a citizen to occupy that office. Therefore all that was necessary to depose its occupant was to declare the office vacant, or under a pretext to prefer articles of; impeachment. And thus the individual who occupied the Chief Magistracy was to be disposed of and driven from power. There was, two years ago, a ticket before you for the Presidency. I was placed upon that ticket with a distinguished citizen, now no more. Voices "It's a pity; "Too bad;" "Unfortunate." Yes, I know there are some who say "unfortunate." Yes, unfortunate for some that God rules on high and deals in justice. Cheers. Yes, unfortunate ! The ways of Providence are myste- ious and incomprehensible, controlling all those who exclaim, "Unfortunate." "Bully for you!" I was going to say, my countrymen, a short time since I was elected and placed upon the ticket. There was a platform proclaimed and adopted by those who placed me upon it. Notwithstanding a mendacious press: notwithstanding a subsidized gang of hirelings who have not ceased to traduce me, I have discharged all my official duties, and fulfilled all my pledges. And I say here to-night, that if my predecessor had lived, the vials of wrath would have poured out upon him, Cries, " Never !'r" Never!" and three cheers for the Congress of tne united Btatea.j l came here as 1 was passing along, and having been called upon for the purpose of ex changing views, and ascertaining, if we could, who was wrong. Cries, " You are f That was my object in appearing before you to-night. 1 have lived among the American people, and have represented them in some public capacity for the last twenty-five years. Where is the man or the woman who can place his finger upon one single act of mine deviating from any pledges of mine, or in violation of the Constitution of the country? Cheers and cries of "New Orleans." Who is he? what language does he speak? what religion does he profess? that can come and place his finger upon one pledge I ever violated, or one principle I ever proved false to? Voice, "New Orleans!" Another, "Why don't you hang Jeff. Davis?" Hang Jeff. Davis? Shouts and cries of, "Down with him!" Hang Jeff. Davis? Voice, " Hang Wendell Phillips!', Why don't you hang him? Cries of " Give us an opportunity." Haven't you got the court? Haven't vou got the Attorney General? Who is your Chief Justice, who has refused to ait on his

trial? Groans and cheers. I am not the Chief Justice! I am not the Attorney General! I am no jury ! But I will tell you what I did do. I called upon your Congress, that is trying to break up your Government. Hisses and cries of "A lie!" Great confusion. Voice. " Don't get mad!" I am not mad. Hisses. I will tell you who is mad. " Whom, the gods want to destroy they first make mad." Did your Congress order any of them to be tried? Three cheers for Congress, Then, fellow-citizens, we might as well allay out passion and permit reason to resume her empire and prevail. In presenting the lew remarks that I designed to make, my intention was to address nself to your 'common sense, your judgment, your better feelings, not to the passion and malignancy of your hearts. Voice: "How about Moses?" This was my object in presenting myself on this occasion, and to say "how d'ye" and "goodbye." In the assembly here to-night the reni4rkmbbeen made, "TraiBAttr WteFpu? Will you hear me r Cries, i es. J And will you hear me for my cause and for the Constitution of my country? "Yes, yes! Go on!" I want to know when or where, or under what circumstances, Andrew Johnson, not as Executive, but in any capacity, ever deserted any principle, or violated he

Constitution ot his country.'' I Never! never! Let me ask this large and intelli gent audience if your Secretary of Mate, who served four years under Mr. Lincoln, and who was placed upon the butcher's block as it were and hacked and gashed all to pieces, scarred by the assassin' knife when he turned traitor? Crie? of "Never !" If I were disposed to play the orator and deal in declamation, even to-night I would imitate one of the ancient tragedies, and would take Mr. Seward, bring him before you, and point you to me nacKS anu scars uoon nis Derson. I Voice, God bless him! would exhibit the bloody garments saturated with gore trom hw gaping wounds. Then I would ask you who is the traitor? Voice, " Thad. Stevens! " Why don't you hang Thad. Stevens and Wendell Phillips? Cheers. I have been fighting traitors in the South. They have been whipped and crushed. They acknowledge their defeat, and accept the terms of the Constitution. And now as I go round the circle, having fought traitors at the South, I am prepared to fight them at the North. Cheers. God being willing, with your help. Cries, " We won't give it." They will be crushed North, and this glorious Union of ours preserved. Cheers. I do not come here as the Chief Magistrate of twenty-five States out of thirty-six, Cheers. I come here to-night with the flag of my country, and the consellation of thirty-six stars untarnished. Are you for dividing this country? Cries of " No." Then I am President, and President of the whole United States. Cheers. I will tell you another thing, I un derstand the discordant notes in this crowd to-night. He who is onuosed to the restoration of the Government and the Union of the States is a great er traitor than Jeff. Davis or Wenddell PhillipB. Loud cheers. I am against both of them. Cries ot Uive it to them. Some oi vou talk about traitors in the South, who have not courage to go away from your homes to fight them. Laughter and cneers.J the courageous men, Grant, Sherman, Farragut, and the long list of the distinguished sons of a 1 TT I ' . 1 n il ii i me umuu, were in tne neia, ana lea on their gallant hosts to conauest and victory, while you remained cowardly at home. Applause, Kully.J Now, when these brave men have returned home, many of whom have left an arm or a leg or their blood upon many a battle-field, thev found you at home, speculating and commit ting trauds upon the (jrovernment Laughter and cheers. You pretend now to have great respect and sympathy for the poor, brave fellow, who has ;ett an arm on the battle-field. ri Lt.:r .m i f i n in t tunes, is mis dienmear j l un derstand you; You may talk about the dignity of the President. Cries, "How was it about making a speech on the 22nd ot February r I have been with you on the battle fields ot this country, and I can tell you furthermore, to-night, who have to pay these brave men who shed their blood, lou speculated, and now the great mass oi the people have got to work it out. Cheers. It is time that the great mass of the Ameriean people should understand what your designs are. TA voice. " What did tien. JButler say?"J What did Gen. Butler say? Hisses. What did Grant say? Cheers. And what does Gen. Grant say about Gen. Butler? Laughter and cheers. What does Gen. Sherman say? A voice, " What does Sheridan say? New Orleans! New Orleans!" Gen. Sheridan says he is for the restoration of the Government that Gen. Sheridan fought for. Bully. But, fellow-citizens, let this all pass. I care not for my dignity. There is a certain portion of our countrymen who will respect a oitizen wherever he is entitled to irespect. Voice: "That is so." Thers is another class that have no respect for themselves, and consequently laey cannot respect any one else. Laughter and cheers. I know a man and a gentleman whenever I meet him. I nave only to look in his face; and if I was to see yours by the light of day, I will bet that I should see cowardice and treachery written upon it. Cheers and laugh-j

Come out here where I can see you. Cheers. If you ever shoot a man .you ill da it ia- the dack, and pull the trigger when no one is by to see. Cheers. I understand traitors. I have been fighting them at the southern end of the line, and we are now tightiug them in the other direction. Laughter and cheers. I came here to neither criminate nor recrimate, but when attacked my plan is to defend myself. When encroached upon, I care not from what quarter it may come, it will meet with resistance. As Chief Magistrate felt, after taking the oath to support the Constitution, and when I saw encroachments on your constitutional rights, I dared to sound the tocsin of alarm. Three cheers for Andrew Johnson. Then, if this be right, the head and front of my offending is in telling when the Constitution of our country was trampled upon. Let me say to those who thirst for more blood, who are still willing to sacrifice human life, if you want a victim, and the country requires it, erect your altar and lay me upon it to pour the last libation to human freedom. Loud applause. I love my country. Every public act of my life testifies that it is so. Where is the man that can put his finger pon any act of mine that goes to prove to the contrary? And what is my offending? Voice " Because you are not a Radical." and cries of " veto." Somebody says veto, veto of what is called the Freedmen's Bureau bill? I oan tell you what it is. Before the rebellion commenced there were four millions of slaves and about 340,000 white people living in the South. These latter paid expenses, bought the land's and cultivated them, and

after the crops were gathered, pocketed the profits. That's the way the thjh stood up to the rebellion. The rebel lion commenced, the slaves were lib erated, and then came up the Freed men's Bureau bill. This provides for the appointment ot agents and subagents in all States, counties and school districts, who have power to make contracts for the freedmen and hire them out, and to use the military A- - -illl-LJ,i 1' power w carry mem into execution. The cost of this to the people was twelve million dollars at the beginning. The further expense would be greater, and you are to be taxed for it. That is why I vetoed it. The Civil Rights Bill was more enormous than the other, fl have exercised the veto power, they say. Let me say to you of the threats from your Stevenses, Sumners, Philipses, and all that class. I care not for them. As they once talked about forming a "league with hell and a covenant with the devil. " I tell you, my countrymen, here to-night, through the power of hell, death, and Stevens, with all his powers combined, there is no power that can control me save you, the people, and the God that spoke me into existence. Jn bidding you farewell here to-night, I would ask you, with all the pains Congress has taken to calumniate and malign me, what has Congress done? Has it done anything to restore the Union of the States? But, on the contrary, has it not done everything to prevent 1M And because I stand now as I did when the rebellion commenced, I have been denounced as a traitor. My countrymen here to-night, who has suffered more than I? Who has run greater risk? Who has borne more than 1? But Congress, factitious, domineering tyranical Con-, gress has undertaken to poison the minds of the American people, and create a feeling against me in consequence of the manner in which I have distributed the public patronage. Whi.e this gang the common gang of cormorants and blood suckers have been feasting upon the country for the p; st four years men never going into the field, who growl at be mg removed from their fat offices they are great patriots ! Look at them all oyer your District! Everybody is a traitor that is against them. I think the time has come when those who stayed at home and enjoyed offices for the last four or five years I think it would be no more than right for them to give way and let others participate in the benefit of office. Hence you can see why it is that I am traduced and assaulted. I stood up by these men who were in the field, and I stand by them now. I have been drawn into this long speech, while I intended simply to i ii t r J inaKe acKnowieagments xor the cordial welcome; but if I am insulted while the civilities are going On, I will resent it ip a proper manner, and in Darting here to-nieht. I havo nn anger nor r'evengful feelings to gratify. All I want now peace has come and war is over is for all patriotic men to rally round the standard of their country and swear by their altars and Gort.that all shall si n lr to gether but wat this Union shall h supported.

and free. A voice, " What about New Orleans?" You complain of the disfrauchniejnent of the negroes ia the Southern States, while you would not give them the right of suffrage in Ohio to-day. Let your negroes vote in Ohio before you talk about negroes voting. Take the beam out of your own eye before you see the mote in your neighbor's eye. You are very much disturbed about New Orleans but you will not allow the negro to vote in Ohio. This is all plain; we understand this all, and in parting with you tonight, let me invoke the blessing of God upon you, expressing my sincere thanks for the cordial manner in which you have received me.
