Tur L. &. OF AMERICA AND THE L. K. OF CREA-
r,ov-,y AyALYsIs OF AXALOGIGs.--We frequent
" observe upon examination strange analogy
and similitude between subjects specifically an
taconistic and divided. 1t is very servlceaole
mental exercise to trace out these essential,
though not ratent, similartles; and. II no better
purpose is subserved it at least qulckens Inc VIII
and affords MS rational amusement. An analogy
of more than usual interest, and between subjects
more than commonly divided, has just occurred
TO us and for example sake we shall endcavor
to follow it and see how far it leads.
Who could believe, for instance, that an analo-
gv subsisted between our country ana flli -
And yet there is, in many points 4 radical simill-
! tude-as we shall now prove.
In every branch of physical development 1t
| seems to be our destiny to conquer. In every
branch of physical disease, the Iilis and ONT
ment of Professor Holloway has proved ethca-
cious for q cure.
With population inferior to Great Britain, we
have more miles of telegraph and railroad than
England, France and Austria combined. From
his central establishment in London Prof. Hollo-
way has rescued and restored to health more pa
ticnts than the united physicians of the world.
Our commerce and our fame cover every sea.
His Pills are in the reach and his praise is on the
tongue of every nation on the globe.
The elastic character of our institutions ena-
bles us to accommodate our growth to the acces-
sions which are manifcsly in reserve for us. The
strictly universal principles upon which Hollo-
ways Remedies are compounded, enable them to
grapple with and overcome every variety OF dis
ease they destroy the manifestations OF ailment
by eradicating lis cause.
There is mighty destiny in store for the Unit
ed States they will absorb eventually every
weaker government by the force of The democrat
ic idea The idea of Prof. Holloway's Unicer'af
| Remedies is one essentially democratic 1t does
not limit health to wealth but gives 1t Tree
boon to all who ask for and employ it, 1t also
will eventually absorb all nfeior schools OF prac-
tice end be regarded, universally. (as it already
is by the wisc) as the supreme and only remedy.
| Our country is much given to annexation, but
uses whatever power it may acquire exclusively
for the benefit of the annexed. Prof. Holloway
has extended his medical dominion over the Tour
quarters of the carth--hc has penetrated even
the remotest haunts of the barbarian; and yet ne
carries blessing in his hand and the only burdens
he imposes are those Of happiness and health.
We could carry out the remarkable slmllltudes
Of these apparently disconnected subjects into in
finite detail detail but enough has been already
said to arouse the attention Of of the reader, and
q very little thought will enable him to follow
up the train Of rneditabon we have started. The
proudest destiny that We can wish the United

PACIFIC STEAMSHIP MoNoPoLY.-Since the clos
ing of the Nicaragua route to the East, the Pa
cfc Mail Steamship Company, with that regard
to the convenience and welfare OF the ;, dear peo-
pie" which they have always manifested, have
nearly doubled the price Of passage, and virtual.
ly closed the gate and corraHcd those whose
means are limited. OF course those sort of peo-
pie have no business to 60 home TO pay the old
if they hare father mother, sister or brother
wife or child passing away from earth, whose last
few hours would be made happy by the presence
OF the absent one. Little care the heartless
monopolists. The exorbiant price must be paid
TO the u:termost farthing, and even then should
the shirt collar of the passenger not be of sufIl-
cicnt dimensions, his coat Of the latest fashion,
and his boots wear the finest polish and should
he take passage in the stecrago for want Of the
necessary cash to enable linn to 80 in the cabin,
the treatment Of any decent dog is gentlemanly
compared with that which he will receive.
We are glad TO see that movement is on foot
10 put an end to this state of things. The project
OF Capt. Randall & Co., which is now being car,
ried out will be n sure remedy, and We advise
those who wish to make the trip to wait u little
longer save their money and their self respect,
and when the opposition starts support it, that
they may not again be left TO the tender mercies
OF a set Of Sbylocks.

CHANGE OF COUNTY OFFICIALs-On Monday
last the newly elected County officers were sworn
into Office at the Court House. Upon the entry
Of the elect and retiring of the old incumbcnts
warm cengratuation WAS extended to the in
coming and out going administration. John A.
Watson, entered upon his duties as County Clerk
upon the resignation of II. ]. Seaman, esq
which took place some four weeks ago. Mr..
Seaman went out Of office with honor to himself
and the increased confidence of the people in his
integrity. We believe that Mr.. Seaman has re-
signed the trust and responsibility of his Office
into good and safe bands. MIR. Watson, the pres
ent incumbent, received from the people of Trini
ty very distinguished mark Of public favor, and
we predict that he will go out OF office with hon
or to himself and credit to his friends. OF L.
Neblett, esq, ex-Sheriff and |. G. Messec, esq,

citizens throughout the whole county pronounce

The Drain

Within the last few weeks there has been
constant drain upon our population. Some OF our
best citizens have lately left us for the Allan
tic States men whom we had hoped were settled
permanently amongst u.s. have suddenly brought
their business to a close and left for other parts
of The world.
This seems TO be an inevitable misfortune for
California, and may be considered one Of the
strongest reasons for her being 80 vascilating and
unstaple in her progress and developments
1t will be seen in a moment how injurious this
drain is TO the steady increase and prosperity Of
the country. We can safely say that in less than
five weeks some seventy five of the old residents
Of Trinity County have lett. Now in reference
TO them it would be reasonable to make the iol-
lowing calculation Twenty-Five Of these took
$4,000 twenty FIVE took $500, and the remain
ing twenty-five $4,000 This, when summed up,
shows q drain of 1862 500. The greater portion
of THE large amount was invested in real estate,
and assisted much in bringing about permanent
state OF things in Weaver. Dcng withdrawn, the
amounts sufficient to pay it OF had to be rcplac-
cd by other loans, at much higher rates OF inter
est This is a system OF things calculated to keep
property up to fictitious value, and keep the
owners continually embarrassed.
Our long-headed citizens may consider their
procrastination in assisting to secure water to
Weaver, to furnish the honest and industrious
maa with the means TO labor, but if they will just
pause moment and reflect that the place of
those who left with money is being filled by pen
niless men, who have not the facilities to make
money which their predecessors had, they will be
apt to realize that their long headed wisdom has
only turned out to be an ignorant stubborness
which will in the end infict its evils and injuries
on no class more than themselves.
