CALIFORNIA SALVE
PREPARED FROM A NATIVE FEGET.
OF ALTO MIA

YavHE MOST FFFICACIOUS and powerful
4 Remedial Agent that has yet been intro
duced to the world. and is destined to eclipse
every preparation, in the cure Of the follow
ing diseases
Poison, or sores produced from poisonous
matter diffused through the system; Bruises,
Cuts, Chapped Hands and Lips; Corns, Flea
Bites, Spider Stings, Mosquito Bites Hives,
Sore Ears, Cutaneous Eruptions, Chlblains,
Fever Sores, Burns and Scalds, Bols and
Swellings of every nature; Sore and Infamed
Eyes, Fistu!a, Piles, Ring worms, Salt Rheum.
Whte Swellings, FELONS, Buboes and Vene-
real Sores. For the cure of indolent Ulcers,
there is nothing that is its equal.
1t is a conceded fact by ADJ Physicians of
eminence, that every country produces its
Negotiable and Mineral Remedies adapted to
the cure Of diseases incident to its climate,
and this natural truth is confirmed by the re-
markable fact that the invaluable Vegetable,
from which this Salve is extrocted, and which
is certain cure for the SCUB OAK POI
SON OF THE .MLNES, is found growing
often in the midst, or always contiguous to the
oak itself. Wonderful consistency Of nature
when the evil and the remedy are found -four
ishing side by side
The effect of this SALVE upon many euta-
neous complaints, such Hives and other
Eruptions, is most magical, instantly relieving
the itching and irritated parts, and often
few applications completing a cure
DR. D. B. SHRIEVES, one of the original
discoverers of this inyalu ibes Specific, is an
old and well known resident of California
having been connected with the T. S. Army,
as Assistant Surgeon for fifteen years; beside,
he has Travelled over many portious of Europe,
and has made himself familiar with the var-
GUS properties of the Vegetable Kingdom and
theref ore, has had the best of opportunities
for discovering the Medical properties of its
Vegetable productions, which he has improved,
as will be shown by the numerous remedies he
has introduced, both in the army and in his
private practice.

RIVER ITEMS.

THE RIVER The Oaio river for the past sea
son has maintained The most uniformly naviga-
BILE stage ever known, and yet we hear of an
other rise at Pittsburgh. The amount of bust

months has not been less for many years There
is but little probability that steamboat naViga-
ton will be at all interrupted this year by low
water.
"A letter from Washington, Ark, says that
Red river is three feet lower than it ever
known TO be, and that it can be torde at almost
any point. The merchants in that part OF Ar
