The Louisville steamers have been so Ions
freighted and supported by the shipments
Evansville, that they seem to think they
have prescriptive right to the carrying TRADE
from this place, and that, too, without an.
acknowledgment or thanks for the favor
taking it. Although more than enc half
their cargoes have been taken from her
during the past winter, they are PERSISTENT
reported in New Orleans as entirely froi
Louisville. 1t is time we had freight boa
that would run to this point as EvansviI

from Louisville, and this is as good to-

LET NO FALSE DELICACY PREVENT THE

LET NO FALSE DELICACY PREVENT THE
INVALID from seeking medical relief - the
card of DIR. L. j. CZ.4PR.aY, to be found in
another column, ind dicates where to obtain rea-
BILE and competent physician. 1t is seldom that
we are called upon to bear testimony in favor Of
the skill of any physician, but sense Of duty as
well as justice demands that we should not pass
DR.. Czapkay by. without something more than
mere mention. Unlike the greater portion Of
those who thrust themselves and their nostrums
before the public, whose practices are empirical
DR.. Czapkay is gentleman of rare medical and
chief surgeon of the liberating army during the
late Hungarian Revolution, and is possessed of
all the requisite experience and skill for the sue
cessu practice of his profession. 1t is to the care
and advice of such physician we would recon-
mend all suffering from the effects Of sexual or
private diseases feeling assured that in all such
complaints, whether arising from Infection in
discretion, selfabuse, or loss of virility he can
guarantee, from his extensive practice, speedy
and permanent cure To those suffering from the
effects of physical and mental debility, we would
say, let common sense take the place of false mo-
desty and seek such advice as will save Won from
an untimely grave, and lead you back again to
pristine health consult Dr. Czapkay, whom we
cheertully endorse as skilltul and tried physi-
clan, capable of coping with and successfully
eraGicating those self inflicted mseries, the evils
of empirical practices and all diseases of semi
nal nature. DR.. Czapkay's rooms are on Sacra-
mcnto street, opposite Pacific Mail Steamship Cos
Office, San Francisco.

some act bearing upon the subject. Perhaps
the officer was actuated in his answer by i'm
pressions made by Judge Burnett in his not
ed Mariposa opinion, that the Federal Gov
ernment had no control over the gold in the
soil of California, but that it belonged to the
State-and hence its acquisition was under
the jurisdiction of our statutes. Men, learn
ed in the law, tell me Judge Burnett's OPT
MON on this point is not tenabe; not even
within the pale Of the common law which
he applies-w when he says that the gold be-
longs to the king, and the kingdom is the
sovereignty of California. Men take issue,
and claim that the Kingdom as contemplated
by the common law is the Federal Govern
ment. l am not deep enough in these mat
ters to decide or even form an opinion, but
my idea is, the sooner the question is settled
by the Supreme Court of the U. S., the bet
ter-for it is certainly question of more
than ordinary interest to the State and Fede-
raj Government, as we'll as those who are
likely to pay their money for the lands of
the Government. "Let justice be done,
though the Heavens fall"
l do nat intend to pay one dollar for my
land until can see clear into this doubly-
mystifed affair of selling the mineral lands
as agricultural.
Now, Mr.. Editor, if there is any point left
have not touched upon, and which you
can unravel, in the plentitude of your legal
wisdom-for heavens sake enghten u.s.
