For Primary Syphilis. How long have the
medical profession tried in vain to discover some
the-reputical agent that could be relied upon to
cure disease more to be dreaded than all others
combined. Some Quack Doctors advertise to cure
venereal diseases without the use of mercury
But their statements are false. We have taken
pains to collect the receipts Of some who make
great noise, and we find that they use the To-
dine of Mercury for everything, whether it is
proper or not, and since we find them misrepre-
senting in this particular we have reason to sus-
peCt them and I'D omne genus in all their pre-
tensions.
Gentlemen, there never was a remedy capable
of curing the disease without mercury, until the
discovery of the Chloride of Gold, and we submit
it to the test, having thoroughly tried it, and
know it to possess all the qualities attributed to it..
DR.. Christian says:-The Chloride of Gold is
capable of curing Syphalis under all its forms,
and that in its general operations on the system,
it possesses many advantages over mercury. 1t
is etficacious, yet gentle. 1t may be administered
with perfect safety at all of the year. and
under any complication Of the disease. Persons
Of either sex may be put upOnit with equal safe
ty the only caution enjoined is strict temperance.
In other respects the patient is not required to
change his mode of living.
DR.. Samuel L. Mitchell, the distinguished sur
geOn of New York, speaks IN the following words:
The Chloride of Gold possesses admirable Vir-
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets we'll I'M
der the operation of the medicine, with incOnl-
parably less inconvenience, without the hazard
of sore mouth or salvation, and with very lit
tie wear and tear of the constitution. l consider
the introduction of this preparation in common
use, as one of the greatest improvements in mod
ern medicine, and l wish it was already as uni
versal as the maady it cures.
Other distinguished members of the medical
profession have given testimony of the great val
ne of the remedy, the statements of whom we
have in our possession.
Gentlemen we shall be glad to see you at any
time-we are always prepared to attend to your
wants.
The above remedy will be sent to any persons

drugs and may be taken by persons of all ages

bilious and other secretiOns, thus cleansing the
system and restoring the natural and healthy or

State of California, FL Dorado County, Green
wood Township. Whereas, by the affidavit of
James H. Rose, one of the plaintiffs in the above
described cause, made this the 8th day of Sep
tember A. D. 1855, it appears tC my satisfaction
that a cause of action exists against the defend

AshtOn's residence, known to plaintiffs, was Car
rolton, village of Placer county; but after due
diligence he cannot be found within this State,
and that therefore personal service cannot be
had in said cause against said Ashton. Now
therefore, it is ordered, that summons in the
above entitled cause be published once week
for three months, in the newspaper known as the
Georgetown News, published in the village of
Georgetown Ell Dorado County, California; and
it is further ordered, that copy of the summons
be forthwith deposited in the Post Office direct

THE EYES.
All Diseases of the Eye Cured with unfalI'
Ing certainty.

DIR. w. A. SNYDER, Oculist.
DR. w. A. SNYDER'S S mode of treating disea-
~ ses of the Eye differs materially from the
course commonly pursued by Physicians. Be
lieving that most diseases of the Eye have their
origin in obstructed circulation or an impure
state of the SYSTEM his remedies will be pre-
scribed with reference to the disease with which
the patient may be afflicted; and by equalizing
the circulation removing obstruction and restOr-
ing the general health of the patient, the Eyes
may be permanently cured without the use of
costic or any of the irritating applications in
general use. DR.. S. would say to those who have
exhausted the skill of all others without relief,
not to despair of a cure without giving him a
trial for in all cases where vision is not entirely
lost or the Eye not completely disorganized there
is still hope.

''What made the men of envy what they are?

With lying tongue, to make the noble seem

embodied into one heterogeneous whole, and
while, by means of these coalitions, tactics and
frauds, distempered and unworthy men are
raised to office, the Democratic party has sat
in serene repose and in rigid and unseduced
honesty. There is but one Democratic party.
Its chart of principles has long since and often
times been promulged. /. II sets its face against
all isms and repudiates every faction. 1t as
serts The rights and the union Of the States.
1t is against Abolitionists, Freesoilers, Wo
mans Rights, Agrarians, and all the isms.
The opposition includes-disguise it as they
may-all these odous things. The moment q
man becomes one Of those things to which we
have alluded, that moment he is driven from the
Democratic party, and that moment he seeks
refuge in the opposition. The Democratic
party is for the Constitution, for the rights Of
the States, and the rights of the Territories.
The consequence Of their vindication, during
the last session Of Congress, of these doctrines,
great and clamorous opposition was raised
up against them. While that opposition in
cludes something that is respectable and hon.
est, it comprehends everything that is odious
and dishonest. It has in few months killed
itselfby its excesses. We are happy to be able
to say, that the prospects of the Democratic
party are better and brighter to-day than they
have been for months.

pS- Those who affect cold weather have no
doubt enjoyed themselves amazingly for the
last two days. If the thermometer fails to in.
dicate il, the bodies, yea the very souls Of men-
frozen as they have been-afford unerring ind-
cation that the present is the coldest spell we
been. 1t is scarcely possible to realize, at such
season, that there is such thing as summer,
and such thing as dog days. It's scarcely
possible to credit even our own individual ex-
periences of hot suns, musquitos, seed ticks,
and bilious fevers. Yet men have vague
recollection, dim consciousness that such
things have been, and sort Of shadowy and
unreal expectation that they win be again.
They just have faith enough TO lay in stock
Of ice, the gathering in Of which, in such
weather as this, looks absolutely ridiculous.
But what seems ridiculous in mid winte er, is
lovely in the raging months of June, July, and
August. What is but drug and an incon-
venience, when the Potomac and the other
large rivers are frozen over, when navigation
is stopped, and cattle cannot find water to
drink, will, when next summer comes, be the
most valued Of all luxuries..
But there is melancholy view Of this SUBJ
ject. There are large numbers Of the poor,
the sick, and the old, who neither have fires to
warm them, clothes to protect, nor food to eat.
Let those whom Providence has blessed with
all the good things of life, remember that a
little charity and a little benevolence exercised
at such season as this, will carry JOY to many
sufferers heart, and rescue helpless little
children and more helpless age from death
by cold and starvation.
