DAILY MORNING CALL."-We have received
the first number Of very neat little paper with
the above appropriate title, got up in the 1o'on
Talk style, and published by an association
of practical printers, AT the extremely low price
of 123 cents per week. The paper is ably edit
ed, and filled with interesting news items. They
Jrag on their head, We are not disposed to criti-
else, but think the pictorial part is not poetical
enough "to give an air of mercantile alacrity
contrasting strongly scith the silent but romantic
island which we perceive beyond rising from
the bay We had mistook the s.island' for a
mud-turtle, which seemed to be unconsciously
floating among a number of fishing scows, on
the alert to attack his turtle-ship,-but reading
further ON, the mystery is explained, by calling
it "a beetling island" On second thought it
looks more like beetle (of the tumble species,)
than turtle. The description says, morn's
first beam, illuminates the cene,"- that bean,
must have been g in his eye," not to have seen
the mote we have discovered. We wish the
typos" all success in their enterprise for theirs
is a "hard road to travel" between chases and

The QUERCUs VIRI OR PoIsoN OAK
OF CALIFORNIA, AND ITS ANTIDoTE.-
Editor Bulletin Referring to the article
in Hntchings' Magazine on the above
plant, an extract from which appeared in
Saturdays Bulletin, beg to offer few
remarks.
The effect of this climbing (not creep
ang) shrub as poisonous agent on some
constitutions is not, as therein stated con-
fined to temperament. The rirus acts on
the cuticle, and produces rapidly in
creased action of the vascular system. In
certain states of the body its action is more
rapid than at other periods. The RENE
dies I would suggest are as follows -
Wash the part affected with strong solu-
tion of bicarb. of soda; then apply, by
means of linen cloth, kept aoeU saturated,
a lotion composed of chloroform, one part !;
eau de cologne, two parts; water, three
parts. After very short period, the
patient will generally not experience any
further annoyance.
This shrub varies in size. [ have seen
several eight, ten and twelve feet high
in some instances destroying that whence
in its early growth it derived support, and
forming an Independent shrub of consid-
erable size and extent. Some persons can
handle the leaves and stems. and even
rub the juice or sap which it exudes on
any part Of the body, with impunlty.

County Court Proceedings.

The regular Term of the County Court Judge
w W Porter presiding, has been in session
the past week, at Mokelumne Hill the record
shows large amount of business transacted
The following cases have been disposed of:
"Lorenzo,n the Chilap who assisted in the
outrage and robbery of a Mexican woman, near
Formans ranch, was tried on the charge of
rape, found guilty, and sentenced to eight gears
in the Penitentiary. His trial on the charge of
robbery in stealing $500, is yet to take place.
--, Mexican, was found guilty of the
crime of Grand Larceny, for stealing horse in
1854; sentenced to two years in the States
Prison.
John Belden, was tried on the charge of steal
ing at Mokelumne HILL watch and some jew
elry, from Mr.. Prouty, the Stage Agent; found
guilty and sentenced to years in the States
Prison.
The Grand Jury found a true bill against
Jack Smith, for the murder of his partner near
the Gold Hill House, some time ago. He will
be tried next term of the District Court.
Wall. Stewart, who was found guilty of mur-
der last session of the Court and sentenced to
be hung on the 5th inst. has been granted
s@Persededs or stay of proceedings, while an
application for new trial is being argued be-
fore the Supreme Court.

Bsgp DR.. L. j. Czapkay.-The gentleman
whose name forms the caption of this notice is
one of the few modern physicians whose appli-
cation to his profession and devotion to the af-
1icted, render him alike an ornament to the
one and benefit to the other. A Hungarian
by BIRTH he sought with Kossuth to place his
country among the nations of the earth, beyond
the oppressors rule, that her sons might re-
joice in the practice of those precepts which
are alike our glory and our pride In his efforts
so to do, he has reaped the reward Of Intellectual
resistance to oppression and "a home and
country know him no more" Apart, however,
from his claims upon consideration as
patriot, the testimonials of character and ca
pacity which he brings entite him to public
confidence, to the exclusion of those who pos
sess neither the one or the other. As a gentle
man his character is untarnished; as a physi-
clan, his skill unsurpassed; and to those whose
imprudcnce has left upon them the tants of
disease, we conscientiously commend him
with the assurance that in him they will find
friend whom to know is great gain. The Drs

1t will be seen from the above report that the
School District of San Andreas, is within ten
scholars of being as large as that of Mokelumne
Hill, the county seat and from the ratio of
increase, as exhibited in comparing the above
report with that of last year, next Annual Re-
port will place San Andreas District far ahead
of any other School District in the County
The Chronicle says:
With the exception Of Mokelumne Hill, the
most important town in the county, the schools
are in most hourishng condition. The child
rem of each district are now occupying their
own school houses. Through the exertions of
the Trustees fine school house has, during the
past summer, been erected at Rich Gulch Flat
and another In the town of San Andreas which
is attended by forty-seyen children"
The Chronicle very reluctantly admits g that
the Public School at San Andreas is attended
by forty-serea children why not show how
many children attend school at Mokelumne
Hill, the County Seat? Surely it should not
fear comparisons The great wealth and infu-
ence, of the great County Seat should be above
such sordid motives, to withhold from San

very centre of the county, and the large proper
tion of families settled within the District and
the great number of children attending our
Public Schools, attest the fact, that we are also
located in the very centre of the population
TO be sure the preponderance that the settling
in of county officers gives place, has operated
to our disadvantage fact that will tell in our
ytdror in very short time.
MokeMmne Hill is situated within one mile
Of the county line, having radius of forty miles
to all other extreme points, taxing the whole
county to support the politicians of an out of the
way place, to the Inconvenience and disregard
of seven-tenths of the population of Calaveras
county. These facts have made difference
against US, but we question whether the mpo-
sition will be tolerated much longer by the mass
of taxpayers, who have to go from twenty to
forty miles to pay taxes, attend Court as
that can only be done at the county seat We
intend to show up this great evil as ii really
exists, in short time and those
