TREATMENT OF CHRONIC DISEASE.
DTTPCEF e. UOIJANn

TREATMENT OF CHRONIC DISEASE.
DRS. L. & J. W. BARBER, will devote special
~ attention TO the treatment of Chronic Dis
eases. And believing, as we do, that no Physic-
ian who is engaged in the active duties of gen.
eral practice, has time to give these diseases that
attention which they must have, if they are sue
cessfully treated, one Of this firm will hereafter
devote his exclusive attention to this branch of the
profession; and from our experience heretofore,
we can assure the public that q great majority OF
Chronic Diseases can be cured. Below we mention
q few that we treat with success.
Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Liver Complaint, Ep-
ilepsy, Scorfula, Spinal diseases Uterine Affect
ions, Cancer Fstula, Piles Ulcer, Diseases of the
Eye, Skin, Kidneys, &c. In the treatment Of
Cancer, we do not rely on the knife for the reas-
on that it will not permanently cure this disease
We have for several years treated Cancer by the
local application Of medicines that will remove
the entire cancerous mass, and also the roots,
which cannot be removed with the knife,) then
heal the ulcer with suppuration. Every case OF
Cancer, unless it has been standing so long that
the system has given way and become impregna-
ted with the disease, can be speedily and perma-
nently cured this way.
We treat Fistula upon the same plan, except
where the case is obstinate, when we have recourse
to the igature, and with complete success in eve
ry case.
Persons wishing treatment for Cancer or Fistu-
have to remain short time, as they should be
seen daily while under treatment. We would
also call especial attention to the treatment of dis
eases Of the Throat and Lungs, by the Inhalation
Of medicated Vapor; the old plan Of taking the
medicine into the stomach has always been un-
satisfactory, but by Medicated Inhalation we can
bring the Medieated Vapor in contact with the
Mucous Lining Of the air passages and air cells,
and tits very efficient in removing diseases Of
those parts, For removeing diseases Of
the Throat, Bronchitis and Asthma, this
treatment Is almost infallible.
We make extensive use of Eleetricity,in the
treatment Of all nervous diseases. Paralysis will
be greatly benefited, and if of recent standing,
permanently cured by its use.
As above stated, one member Of this firm will
give his exclusive attention to the treatment ofths
sired, in this or the adjoining counties. The
other will always be found, when not absent on
professional business, at their office and residence
on Paint street, nearly opposite tho Market House
ChilGcothe, Ohio.

The Working Mans chances i'll California

When strict comparison is made between the
price of labor in California, and that in some of
the Atlantic States il cannot be doubted for
moment but that California, is a very superior
field, as we'll as very profitable QUO for the hard
working man. The price of labor however, fuc.
tuaes in California as il docs in some OF the older
States, although we believe it has always been
since 40, on an average OF one hundred per cent
above the price Of labor in the East The man
who comes to California nowadays to build
capital upon his own labor, occupies the safest
position, in reality, for making money The diff
ference will be considerable for years to come
between the value Of labor in the older States
and the value Of labor in California
Every man in California who possesses strength
md Willingness to work, cannot fail TO secure
an opportunity for an investment which will in
the end bring him more certain reward for his
means and industry. We have seen it stated from
time TO time, and by all the leading papers in the
State. that two-thrds Of all the idle men in Cali.

CllSs Oi HieHj We nave neither a direct or remote

towns and cities, and who go on from year TO
year by that Invisible process Of trusting to the
magic circumstances to keep up the succession of
meals. The evil effects which this class OF gen
t.emen OF leisure produces amongst an honest
working community, cannot be measured by mere
dollars and cents. Though the community have
an especial interest in the above stamp Of charac-
ters-that is TO see them leave the State or 90 TO
work, they seldom dictate cure for such vicious
Incidence. We see the sober and independent
laborer, who attends TO his business, and performs
his daily aYocation accumulate in q few years a
respectable competence, and retire in peace and
triumph from the severe battle of life. Who that
has lived in California for few years, that is

The Ditch Owner S Convention.

In another place in this weeks JOURNAL will
be found the proceedings had at the ditch own
er's Convention in Sacramento. The object of
calling this Convention, we understand, was to
secure the attendance Of those persons who are
interested in ditch property in the State. We
have not the least doubt but that the important
interests of mining bitches is of greater value,
and more worthy the attention of the citizens of
California than all the political Conventions
which ever have assembled, or may assemble for
the next ten years. This, We learn from the pro-
cecdings of the Convention, TO have been merely
preliminary movement to the action of one
which is to be called at a future day. The prin-
cipai object for which the Convention assembled,
was to devise means by which the express per-
mission Of Congress could be obtained to those
guaranteed rights which are now enjoyed by
courtesy. The object claimed is the right of way
over the public lands for those bitches so long as
they may be in use, with the privilege Of using
the timber along the line of such ditches proyid-
ed the same is used in the construction Of those
works. The law for the incorporation Of ditch
companies is also matter to be considered by
the Convention. The law is quite defective in
many places, and should be so altered and amend.
ed by the next Legislature as would more clearly
define the rights and responsibilities. Unless the
law is revised and improved, capitalists will ven
ture but little in the great ditching enterprise:
in the State For this reason We think that the
next ditch owners Convention to be held in Sa
cramento at future day, will revise the law, and
make come valuable suggestions to the Legisla-
ture next winter Some of our citizens who have
large interests in bitches in this county should
not fail to attend the Convention, or address
line to the Secretary of the Convention, and have
their names enrolled amongst the committee
Whatever important transactions take place III
reference to the interests OF bitches, Trinity
County will have equal interest at stake as far as

The Election.

Again the war at the ballot-box has ceased,
and calmness and quiet succeeded the stormy
strife. The freemon OF Trinity County have just
asserted through the baliot-box, their choice for
those they believed to be most competent to rule.
The election just over has certainly been less a
party contest than most OF those which have pre-
cecded 1t, In cur County at least.
We nre unable 10 give the exact returns but
from the data we have received, and which we
formed as to the result.
Mr.. Burch, Democratic candidate for the SEN
ate is unquestionably elected by a majority from
800 10 COO votes in the District His majority in
this County will probably reach 400
Hon. John B. Weller for Governor will proba
bly, get majority Of 800. The remainder of the
State ticket will not vary much from Mr. Weler's
vote.
Ed Neblett's majority will not be much short
of $50 over J. C. Crowninshied. Mr.. Neblett
although he did not belong to the American par
", nor advocate It's entire principles, received
the endorsement of the American party. He has
always proclaimed himself an old line Whig

larity gave him prestige stronger than that OF

Judge Daingerfed's vote will in all probabil
ty come up TO that of Mr. Burch His majority
will not be less than 800 over Judge Rosebor.

Judgeship for the 9th Judicial District was caused
through g mistake made in the Governors cleo

Office for another year, but the Judges thought

candidates.

tempted to cross the mountain by the usual trail
but WAS unable to do so. lie then tried to pass

Later from Carson Valley and the Plains

PLAcERvILLE. Aug. 80, 1857.
By the arrival of several emigrant trains just
in, we have later and important news from the
Plains. The names of those arrived are J. W
Boreland, wife and family, VIM. King wife and
family George Berry Mrs Moore and two sons
Richard Choud, Ira Burget, Il. Dicper, W. Adams
c. DARN, W. Risking A. Taswell, d. Bowling, j.

and son.
Mr.. Burnett brings the intelligence of the mas.
sacre Of whole train, consisting of six men and
three children. One woman was shot through
and scalped, and left for dead, but was found
still alive by those who came up first. She is not
expected to live. She is being brought into Car
son Valley by Roundtree's train.
The only names our informant recollects among
the killed were those of Holloway and his broth
erin-law. The three children were murdered by
those fcnds before the face of their parents, and
horribly mutilated.
The emigrans, to man. are willing to Join a
company to exterminate those fends. They are
all Of the opinion that it will yet be six weeks
before the emigrants all pass that locality, and
begin to express their Indignation that no move
is being or has been made to organize n force
here, it being ouy three hundred miles beyond
Genoa.
Three men had been murdered at Gravely Ford
since our last accounts. Their names were John
Everhart, John Steen and John Lawboy. Ever
hart had been travelling with Mr.. Benefits train,
but left to pack in with another company.
There have also arrived here twelve men from
Kinks party. They left the train on the Hum
boldt, at which place sixteen Of his men left.
They are of the opinion that it will be almost
impossible for the emigration to travel the Honey
Lake route, on account of the scarcity of both
feed and water. They we're three days crossing
one desert without spear of grass for their
stock.
Kirk has lost the best of his stock from the al
