New ADyERTIsEMESTs.-L week our col
umns were so crowded that we had no room to
notice the new advertisements that made thelr
" first appearance" in the Independents
Mrs. H. Debnam, of Stockton, adsertises his
large assortment of Drugs and Medicines Mr.
Debnam imports his supplies, so that all who deal
with him purchase good aud fresh article, at the
most reasonable rates His stock is unsurpassed,
in quality or quantity by any other in the city.
His store is on Main street, one door West from
Hunter, Stockton
RooTs AND SHoEs.-The large Boot and Shoe
;mporting house of Nash & Beamis, Stockton, is
in the Brick Store, on Ell Dorado street Their
stock of boots, shoes, feathers, shoe-fndings,
&c, is the largest in the city. In fact they are
the only exclusive dealers in the above articles
which they sell, wholesale, at San Francisco
prices-freight added. Their boots and shoes,
arc made by the most celebrated workmen of
Boston and Philadelphia See advertisement
in another column Remember Mr. z. S. Fogg,
is the representative of the firm in Stockton
DILLON & Co.'s U. S. MAIL STAGEs.-Ths line
of Stages which have run with such great regu-
larity the past two years, between Murphy s
and Stockton, still continue to make their reg
ular daily trips, carrying the Express and Mails
The stock on the line is in the best condition,
and the drivers temperate and careful, using
their best endeavors to please the travelling pub
lie and accommodate their patrons The stage
was interrupted few trips while the weather
was so wet, by the swollen streams-but they
are now making their regular trips, in time for
the o'clock Stockton boat During the COM
ing summer, large travel will pass over this
route, (stopping over night, at Sperry Perry
Hotel, one of the best kept houses in the State J
in visiting the Big Tree and Cave City; and
as these stages run regularly to within twelve
miles of the latter place, we recommend this line
as the safest, speediest and cheapest mode of
making the trip. The Messrs. Dillon are gen
tlemen, practical in their business relations and
well worthy the patronage of the travelling
public.
Mr.. G. r. Choate, Main street, next door to
Holdens, Drug Store, Stockton, dealer in all
kinds of stoves, tinware, copper, zinc, sheet
iron and pumps, advertises that he sells cheaper
than can bought elsewhere in that market
We know Mr. Choate to be man of his word
and would advise miners and others visiting
Stockton, for the purpose of purchasing any
thing in his line, to give him a call. Mr. Choate
also makes Zinc Wind Mills, for hydraulic pur-
poses, roofs buildings, aud does all other out
door work, to order, with neatncss and dis
patch.
Attention is called to the card of Mcssrs.

RELEAsED.-The eleven Cinnamon, who were
so heavily fined for gambling, two weeks ago,
have all been released. We understand they
paid S640 to get out of the scrape-quite suf-
ficient outlay in the school of Experience. We
are informed that had the Chinese shown a dis
position, on their conviction, to pay fine, a
greater part of it would have been remitted
but had the Judge fined them but 500 each,
they would have preferred paying it in Jail, at
$40 per day, to planking down the cash.

Bes- 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-
ficted, 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 preccpts 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 a
country know him 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 the other. As a gentle
man his character is untarnished: as a physi-
cian 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 3 and 4, ArInory Hall, corner of
Sacramento and Montgomery streets, San Fran
cisco. dec 29-3m

however, are akin in their general manner, and
only differ as good taste would have them n

other rooms, halls, avenues and passage Of
both the new wings to be proceeding rapidly,
In the northern wing, the workmen are now
putting up the newel-posts, railing and fencings
of the main passage to the Senate chamber
all which posts, rails and fencings are of Ten

EXPLOSION OF A LOCOMOTIVE Men
KILLED.-The Biughamton Republican of
Saturday, gives the following account of a
terrible accident, which occurred on Tuesday,
on the Syracuse and Binghamton Railroad.
The following are the facts, as near as we can
learn. A freight train, drawn by the loco
motive Chenango," left Binghamton in the
forenoon bound for Syracuse, and about FIVE
o'clock, when half a mile north of Chenango
Forks, the boiler of the locomotive exploded
instantly killing brakeman named Skinner,
(who, we understand, was on the engine) and
SO seriously injuring the fireman that be died
about three o'clock Friday morning Moses
Meyer, the engineer, had both arms broken,
was badly scalded and received numerous brui-
ses and cuts. He is so badly injured that it
is feared he may not recover. Drs, jackson
and Burr, of Binghamton. were sent for, and
in conjunction with Drs. Carr, Dorr and Har-
rington, of the Forks, afforded all the relief
possible to the injured men.

FROM kANsAs-we have nothing new or i'm
portant. Gov Walker is still encamped with
his troops near Lawrence, but has as yet made
no hostile demonstrations. As his late move
was intended to allay the storm gathering in
the South, We have every confidence that Gov.
walker will hesitate before he proceeds to
measures which would arouse the North.
Official dispatches from Governor Walker
have been received at Washington. They
defend his course against the attacks of the
southern disunionists, and detail the condition
of affairs at Lawrence as Justification for bis
present conduct.

OF the author comprising complete history
of Kansas, its invasions, battles, outrages and
murders. The author of this work is fully
qualified, from personal observation, and from
abundant materials, to give truthful and i'm
partial account of The troubles in Kansas, up
to the time of the resignation of Gov. Geary.

MckIM's ATTEMPT TO EscAPE.-The Holidays,
burg Wing confirms the report that McKM
the murderer, attempted to escape. 1t was
also discovered that he had cut nearly through
two heavy staples which were the means of
keeping his cell-door secure How to get at
the means by which he accomplished these
hasty teats of iron cutting were yet to be found
out. Everything in his cell was ranSacked-
piece after piece of his wearing apparel and his
bed-all were put through close and scru-
tnizing search, but all to no purpose-nothng
there could be found (but a letter, which the
prisoner had written-anticipating bis escape
and concealed in the lining of his coat, but
which the Warden withholds from publication
for the present. to aid him in his work but
on searching the cell of a crazy criminal, which
is contiguous to his, part of the blade of an
old case knife was found concealed between
the dilapidated leaves of small Bible, the
whole length of which was not more than
four inches, but had been hacked into a saw
by beating the edge against the bars of his
cell, and with this small instrument had ac-
complshed all this work and, had it not been
found out as soon as it was by the vigilance
OF the warden, Heaven only knows what might
have been the consequence.
AS four weeks from next FRIDAY is the day
fixed upon by the Governor for his execution,
we think all further attempts by him to break
Jail will prove futile, as the Sheriff, Mr. PoRr,
and the Warden. Mr.. MoCLURE, have him
heavily ironed, hand and foot, and q guard
over him during the night
