Office, 9Th ST.. bet,c, en- J & X.
nR. TOZER returns his thanks to his numerous
~ patients for their patronage, and would en-
brace this opportunity to remind them that he
continues to consult on those difficult case of
NEREAL which have baflled the skill of some of the
most celebrated physicians of the age. and upon
which he has nerer failed to perform q radical
cure.
DR.. Tozer's reputation as a Physician stands un-
equaled His exclusive attention to diseases of the
genito-urinary organs for so many years, renders
him perfect master of syphiltic diseases.
The large number of aggravated cases that he
has perfectly cured after they have been given up
by many others is the only proof that physician
requires of his ability. Dr. Tozer would state
that he can any and all cases or varieties of
the diseases no matter how long standing or
what progress the disease has made, every pa
tent can rely upon a cure.
DR.. ToZer has. it is well known, taken pa
tents from the very verge of the grave and
restored them to perfect health. He would fur
thcr state. that he deems it sufficient to attract
the attention of those who might need the
vices of q physician in all cases, but particular
ly those enumerated in this advertisement.
cepting they would test my merits as a prac-
titioner. and the result of my practice has been
thus lar satisfactory 10 my patents anu myself.
Nor do | deem it necessary to fill columns of
the newspapers with fulsome empiric and bonn
bastc advertisements. protesting my ability to
heal all diseases flesh is heir to, for to do that
! must be something more than man. but to give
those that are afflicted with Veneral. Chronic
and other diseases. to understand, from long ex-
percnce. am fully competent to treat them
successfully.
My regard for the dignity of the medical pro-
fcssion; to which | have the honor to belong
dcters me from committing any act savoring OF
rank quackery, aud regard for my own dignity
would prevent my placing myself on par with
0uacks and nostrum venders of the present age.
| offer no fraudulent or genuine certificates or
puffs of my superior qualifications prac-
titioner: neither do | assume to myself medical
honOrs to which l am not entitled, but merely
ask those who are diseased, to read the differ

vate diseases, and judge for themselves where
to rely for relief. (My rooms are so arranged

nR. CHARLES II. TOZER'S CARD to the
~ afflicted of California. In approaching any
new course of systematic inquiry. there are
certain points concerning which the inquirer
should always be careful to satisfy himself.
He should comprehend distinctly what the sub
ject of inquiry is-Health and Disease.
If we can form and fix in our minds clear
conception of the state of II Hcalth, we shall have
no difficulty in understanding what is meant
by disease But beyond though not above, these
objects of investigation of the human body, we
have another and still nobler end. 1t is to lay
before you in such plain terms that you cannot
me mistaken and will know where to apply for
relief.
l use the word DISEASE generally, and before
speak of the signs of particular diseases, it
will be proper to take general view OF symp-
toms. When a person is troubled or afflicted
with disease, which causes weakness of the
back and limbs, pain in the head, dmness of
sight, loss Of muscular power, palpitation of
the heart, irritability. nervousness dyspepsia,
arrangement of the digestive functions. gener
al debility. symptoms of consumption and many
others which are better explained than put on
paper. and require Medical or Surgical attendance
it would be well for them to inquire if there is
physician who is competent to attend them,
and who understands the application of medi-
cine and whose Scientific Attainments in his pro-
fession, and whose age and experience entitle
him to your confidence. Considering these things,
Dr. Charles ii. IoZer has concluded to inform
you that are afflicted, advertising his place of
business stating that he has been successful prac-
titioner for over twenty-five years, and has
ATTENDED AND CURED HUNDREDS,
when they have been considered by other phys-
clans and have been pronounced by them past
recovery. Therefore. you may rely upon him
as one in whom secresy and the utmost conf
dence can be placed
DR.. c. H. T. would invite all that are afilic-
ted to call on him. and if he does not administer
for them, there will be no charge made. Let
no false decacy prevent you but apply imme-
diatcly. and save yourself from the dreadful con-
sequence which must follow those who neglect to
receive attendance.
DIR. C. H. Tozer's Office is on 9th street, near
the Belvidere Hotel; between J and X streets.
His rooms are SO arranged that the Doctor can
be consulted without the fear of molestation.
ES- Office hours from in the morning until
8 in the evening.

PRESERVING FIsH.-Fish may be preserved
in dry state and perfectly fresh, by means
of sugar alone. Fresh fish may be thus kept
good for several days, so as to be as good when
boiled as when just caught. If dried and
kept free from mouldness, there seems no
limit to the preservation, and they are more
nutritious in this way than when salted. The
process is particularly valuable in what is
called "kppered" salmon, and fish preserved
in this manner are superior in quality or flavor
to those which are salted or smoked. A
few table spoonfuls of brown sugar are suf-
ficient for five or six pounds weight, and if
salt may be desired teaspoonful or two
may be added. Saltpetre may be used in
stead of SALT if it be wished to make the kip
per hard Cooley's Cylop.

Merely an Inducement to Treasury Plum
dering


Some contend that Bates is and has been
an honest man, and that his acquitta was
wholly proper. Where is the public money
which was lost while he served as Treasurer!
Did thieves break into his Office and steal
the funds! Did burglars 60 in the night
time and break the vault and rob the State!
No: then Bates is neither an honest man
nor an innocent man. This is the attitude
in which we would place every one in office
who permits, by neglect, indiscretion or ac-
tual rascality, any losses in his department
In either light he is dishonest and guilty
We have no doubt but that Bates himself
took the money out Of the Treasury, not
with the intention of stealing it, probably;
but he took it away without authority and
deposited it in the hands of his intimate
friends, a moneyed combination Of knaves
This was dishonest in him; it was a crime
equal to robbery, because of his station as
one having in charge trust which even
weak man ought to be capable of instinct
ively guarding with unerrng watchfulness
Bates was undoubtedly persuaded to bargain
with those unprincipled fellows, that he
should furnish from the Treasury a large sum,
and with it they would make fortunes for all
concerned, and be able to return the States
money before its absence could be detected.
Therein did he act the rascal; for, no honest
man. however weak, speculative and contid-
ing he might be, would, as sworn public
officer. thus violate his oath and hazard the
interests in his keeping. We would have
him punished more severely than though he
had been private citizen guilty of great
wrong against private citizen. We would
have an example made Of all such loosely
put together officers This would give us
security against failure, folly and fraud in
public officers. The acquittal of Bates is
merely an inducement for second third, a
continual plunderng Of the Treasury.

FnI.-An alarm was given few minutes
past twelve, Friday, occasioned by a fire
which took in the roof of the engine room of
the R. & B. Railroads Machine Shop. The
FIRE engines were out on the instant, and were
both on the spot before the bells began to
ring, followed closely by the " Young Amer
ica'; but the fire was already subdued by
the workmen in the building, aided by the
large pump attached to the engine No
damage was done except to the roof, which
was burned through in several places,
The fire is thought to have taken by Gin
der from the smokepip and was discovered
by the Waterman. The engineer had left
the room but few minutes before, and in
the room occupied by Mr.. E. W. Chase, a,
sash factory adjoining, were himselfand foul
men, none ofwhom perceived the fire till tht
alarm was given. Our friend Chase will be-
gin in time, we fear, to believe that one Of tn,
elements is after him,
