FARMING. - We learn that large
amount of farming will be done in this
county, the present season. In every di-
rectlon farmers are preparing to put IN
heavy crops; IN some instances as much
as three hundred acres will be seeded, in
oats and barley, during the present Win
ter Most of the level, red-land, in the
mines, if properly planted, will yield fair
crops of cereal grains. The bottom lands,
are now principally cultivated in corn and
vegetables. We have heard of some fine
crops of CON being raised up on the San
Antonio and also on the streams In that
vicinity. Our informant says there will
be four times as much grain planted this
year as was last. Another great enterprise
is claiming the attention Of farmers; that
is the raising of fruit trees. There is no
place in California where so many "gar-
den spots, can be found, as in this county;
every half mile along our streams, valleys
are to be found "a little green oasis, where
more than sufficient fruit for dozen fam
lilies could bcraised. In few years each
cottage will have an orchard and all the
charming appurtenances that belong to a
good horticultural garden. Rose-bushes
and contentment 60 together, and those
who wish to be happy and pleased with
their lot" had better cultivate posies;
for every flower contains the essence of
life, of love, and of ''heaven's best gift
to man." true happiness provided he has
good wife, just to make the intoxicating
pleasure palatable by furnishing the guam
tim subicit of acid to the overAowing cup
of sweetness.

ADvERTIsEMENT-"A Miner" sends us an ad-
vertisement for a wife He says
He wants to know if she can milk,
And make his bread and butter,
And go to meeting without silk,
To make show and futter.
He'd like to know if it would hurt
Her hands to take up stitches;
Or sew the buttons on his shirt,
Or patch a pair of breeches.
We are in hopes that rough diamond of
such description, may address Through this

predict "a Minel' the second choice, su6 rosa.

DF DR.. L. J. Czapkay.-The g

Ia LIZ. Ia. y. CZapKay.-Ihe 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-
fcted, 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 our consideration as
patriot, the testimonials of character and ca
pacity which he brings entitle him to public
confidence to the exclusion of those who pos
sess neither the one or the other. As gentle
man his character is untarnished: as physi-
clan, his skill unsurpassed; and to those whose
imprudence has left upon them the taints of
disease, we can conscientiously commend him
with the assurance that in him they will find
friend whom to know is great gain. The Dr.'s
office is No and 4, Armory Hall, corner of
Sacramento and Montgomery streets, San Fran

4 MILITARY CoMPANY.-The Stockton Argus
says that a military company is about being
rial to form an excellent Company The num-
Der of fne-loo1ing young men to be met with
in that city, of military height and appearance,
is abundant, and the Stockton Cornet Band is
as good if not the very best Military Band in the
State. By all means, boys, start the Company,
there is nothing like 8 martial air " to win

HOME MATTERS.


B95. ADvERTIsING.-No matter what a man s
vocation may be, whether preacher or poultry
dealer, if he would die with double chin and
goodly share of worldly possessions, let him
make "splurgen and create a dust by adyer-
tising. If you are dry-goods man make an
investment in printers ink and let the world
know that in the way of bobbinet and bird S
eye diaper, you are not to be outstripped by
any rival in the world. To succeed IN the year
of our Lord, 1861, man must have notoriety
"A notoriety for which you should provide as
assiduously as you first provided your stock in
trade. And the one must be in direct ratio to
the other-positive as well as comparative.
Advertising is to trade what water is to mining,
without it profitable business, in the present
progressive period, viii pay but paltry pit
tance. Customers, like sheep, are gregarious,
and flock where they find others hocking.-
People must not only know a mans business,
but they must know hm-otherwise they viii
find trade with some body who is better known,
and who appreciates the virtues Of publicity
and printers. Competency and Salvation are
closely allied. They are both the result of
Faith and Works, the one is gained by adver-
tising and the other by prayer. And it would
be no more absurd for a man to attempt to gain
Heaven upon his own merits than for him to
expect to become successful business man
without the friendly aid of the press. These
conclusions are just, for the business cat jumps
that way IN these diaainas

AN EDITORIAL PRosPEcT.-On last Thursday

pect for gold after discovering q the color and
fine sample of adhesive clay there found in

MoRE OF TIE STOCKTON AND OAK
LAND RAILRoAD-THE Work TO Pro
CEED.-The San Joaquin Republican, in
explanation Of previous inquiry, says:
On the arrival of Mr. Byrne in Europe,
he lost no time in laying before prominent
capitalists the various surveys which had
been made for a railroad to connect Stock
ton with the Bay of San Francisco, to-
gether with maps Of the country, traffic,
tables, &C., and all the information that
could be procured, tending to show the
great advantage, practicability and profit Of
such work. Little time elapsed-the
project having received the most favorable
conslderatlon--ere arrangements were made,
and the contract let for building thirty
miles of the road, together with pier ex-
tending to deep water In the Bay of San
Francisco, and two steam ferry boats for
the conveyance of passengers and freight
across the Bay So sanguine were capi-
talists of the profit of the undertaking,
that arrangements were perfected by heavy
capitalists to deposit e100,00 in bank,
III the names or trustees, guaranteeing a
certain rate of interest.
The agents had been selected to send
out to conduct the business, and an arrlnce-
ment made to establish bank, or send out
branch of one of the London banks,
through which the business of the COM
pany would be DONE The only barrier to
a commencement of the work, after the
plans had been perfected, which was about
the last of July, was the unsettled and
uncertain state of affairs in California,
during which everything remained in
stotu guo After theintelligence reached
England that every hing had settled down,
and quiet again reigned, the plans previ-
ously matured would doubtless be carried
out, and arrangements made for the early
commencement and completion of the road.
We are indebted for the above informa-
ton, to letter received by DR.. =. ). Hol-
den, from Mr.. Byrne, dated London, Octo-
Der 8, 1856.

Look AHEAD.-The Editor of the Pittsburgh
Post has been taking look at the Republic as
it viii loom up" in the year 1900. By that
time our friend expects to see ''the land of yell
low corn" boast af population of seventy mil
lions of people occupying the whole country,
from Panama to the Artc Ocean, white bears
and walruses inclusive. We are to have a COM
merce more rich and widespread than was ever
possessed by any nation before, while our s'net
Of railroads is to extend from Hudson Bay to
Honduras-from New York to California and
Oregon, with branches running off to Lima on
the south and Russian America on the north.
In fifty years from now we are to have g a
string of villages from the Mississippi to the
Pacific [ria Stockton and San Andreas.] The
Sierra Nevada Mountains are to be tunneled

sides "scraped down. the gold washed out and

into an iron ladle; then take good-sized
piece of lard and mix it with the gold;
hold the ladle over brisk fire until 1t is
heated red and all the grease burned out
of the gold Then take the gold out of
the ladle and put it into soap and water,
and rub it, and the gold will resume its
natural color.
This receipt was handed us by an old
miner, and being SO simple and cheap
must prove valuable to cleanse iron-rusted

D5UJosATHas SIMMONS 'ns was aa psosmUsl shot near
the Sacramento river, by man named JOHN
PERDUE, from the effect of which wound he died
on the 9Th December, 1856.
PERDUE is about % years old, FIVE feet ten
or eleven inches high, rather spare, of a dark
complexion, with black hair and eyes; is slow
spoken, has a down-cast look, face diseased
about the mouth and chin, and wore thick and
black whiskers of about years growth.
He was last seen at st. Louis, Sierra county,
and had with him a double-barreled gun, Zone
rife the other shot,) two pistols and knife !;
also a-bundle with an india-rubber coat around
it. Called his name Dick Walker,-told a friend
he was going to Negro Bar, and then change
his name to Sam Brown. and go to Mariposa.
He has letter of introduction to D. Rumsden,
who lives near Marposa town.

Sau Andreas, December 18th, lS56.-1m
Hg A Card publication lately ap-
peared in the San Francisco Herald, instigated
by representations from w. F. McDermott, who
recently held the Postoffice at his place, Cross
ing of the Calaveras, Mokelumne Hill Road
Said publication sets forth, among other things,
that the Office has been removed from a neigh
borhood which deprives a thickly settled scope
of country, some twenty miles in extent, of post
al benefits. 1t also says that the Office is now
located at house of bad repute, kept as gam
bling and dance house, and general head
quarters of rowdies. All this deny The pub
lication spoken of, also says that petition has
been forwarded to the Department to have the
Office re-established at McDermotts, signed bS
near one hundred names. Now, the truth is,
most of those who signed this petition, have
seen myself, and have their statement that they
did not sign petition for the re-establishment
of the Office at McDermott's but with the un-
derstanding that the Office was to be brought
above McDermotts, or at least nearer their set
tlement; and that if the petition sets forth what
is claimed for it, it was without their knowledge
or consent. The whole statement which ap-
peared in the Herald of the 29th of November,
is false. A baser fabrication could not we'll be
imagined than that regarding the present loca-
ton Of the Office. | deem a further denial of
this libel unnecessary, as the character of the
man who perpetrates it is too well known to
have any effect upon my standing in commu-
nifty where have resided for years
