Important to Miners, Travellers, &C..

There is no malady of deeper Importance
either in medical or moral point of view, to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
As medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it teffects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate as far as lies in his power, the bodily
suffering. Human nature at best is bnt frail:
all are liable to misfortune
Of all the ills that affect man. none are more
terrible than those of a private nature. Dread
ful as it is in the person who contracts it,
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
ton, ending frequently in destruction and
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater inn
portance when it is transmitted to innocent
offspring. Such being the case, how necessary
1t becomes that every one having the least
reason to fear that they have contracted the
disease, should attend to it at once by consult
ing some physician, whose responsibility and
education enables him to warrant safe, speedy
and permanent cure. In accordance with this
necessity, DIR. YOUNG feels called upon to
state that by long study and extensive prac-
tice, he has become perfect master of all those
diseases which come under the denomination
OF venereal, and having paid more attention to
that branch than any other physician in the
United States, he feels himself better qualified
to treat them.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous, Eruptions, Ulcera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis in Childreu Mercurial
Syphilitic Affections, Gonorrhea, elect, Stric-
lures, False Passages, Inflammation of the
Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excavations,
Tufors, Pustules, ETC., are as familiar to him
as the most common things of daily obserya-
ton.
The Doctor effects cure in receiving cases
IN few days. and finds no difficulty in curing
those OF long duration, without submitting the
patient to such treatment as will draw upon
him the slightest suspicion, or oblige him to
neglect his business, whether within doors or
without. The diet need not be changed, ex-
cept in cases of severe inflammation. There
are in California, patients, (amounting to over
two thousand in the past year, that could fur
Eish proof of this but these are matters that
require the incest secrecy, which he always
preserves.

A HISTORIAN OPINION.-Many pol
iticians of our time are in the habit of
laying it down as self-evident PROPOSE
ton, that no people ought to be free till
they are fit to use their freedom. The
maxim is worthy of the fool in the old
story, who resolved not to go into the
water till he had learned to swim 1t
men are to wait for liberty till they be-
come wise and good in slavery, they may
wait for cyer.-Kacduldy

Constitutional Debility or Semial Weakness

Constitutional Debility or Semial Weakness
DIR. YOUNG addresses those who have in
jured themselves by private and improper in
dulgences in that secret and solitary habit
which ruins the body and mind, uniting them
for either business or society. The following
are some of the sad and melancholy effects
produced by early habits of youth, viz: weak
ness of the back and limbs, pain in the head,
dimness of sight, loss of muscular power, pal
pitation of the heart dyspepsia, nervousness,
irritability, arrangement of the digestive func-
tions, general debility, symptoms of consump-
ton, &c.
MENTALLY-The fearful effects upon the
mind are more to be dreaded. Loss of mem
ory, confusion of ideas, depression of spirits,
evil forbodings, aversion to society, self-dis-
trust, love of solitude, timidity, &C., are most
of the evils produced.
All persons who are afflicted with any of the
above symptoms should not fail to call on Dr.
Young, and be at once restored to perfect
health. Let no false delicacy prevent you, but
apply Immediately, and save yourself from the
dreadful and awful consequences of this terri
BILE maldy.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS

UPPER SIERRAs.-The timber and shrubbery
upon the SUBMITS of the hills surrounding the
valleys, is described as being of most singu-
lar character; while in the valleys themselves
the most luxuriant growth of timber of every
description, and grass is to be found.
On these SUBMITS, not spear of grass, or
herb of any kind, is to be discerned. The ce-
dar trees are natural curiosities; they measure
at the butts from one to two feet in diameter,
and have wide, extending branches, so densely
matted and compact, that they will bear a
mans weight, even to their very verge but in
height they do not exceed three, or at the
most, four feet. Mr.. Delate got on top of one
of these stunted giants, and walked all over it,
finding it almost as level, and as unyielding to
his weight as a floor. 1t measured more than
twenty feet in diameter at the top, and was
only about three and half feet high. The
manzanita, instead of bush, has the appear
ance of a trailing vine; but bears as large and
fine favored berries as the more luxuriant
trees of the same name, of the valleys-Mm-

TIME PROPRIETOR OF THESE JUSTLY
j. celebrated mills, which took the first pre-
MUM at the State Fair of 1857, held in Stock
ton, would inform gardeners, farmers, miners
and Others, that he is now manufacturing his
Improved Wind Mill, to order, at the most
reasonable rates. The fans, running gear,
traverse and self-regulating machinery being
all of solid iron, firmly bound together in one
piece so as to prevent the possibility of getting
out of order. These mills are superior to all
others ON account of their cheapness and du-
rability. They combine every facility to effect
the purpose for which they are made, besides
having a self-traversng plateau and a self
regulating apparatus to govern the motion OF
the wheel. The principle on which the ma
chinery works, is to throw the wheel off the
wind during strong gale, by having double
tails or dog-vanes attached so that they will
spread before the wind in a moderate breeze,
but contract in stiff gale, throwing the wheel
clear off the wind while, as the gale subsidies,
weights (which are attached for the purpose,)
gently bring the fans of the wheel around into
the eye of the wind, when the wheel will re-
sumo its accustomed gentle evolutions.
These mills positively not liable to get out
of repair) are the best now in use, and their
durability, cheapness and simplicity, make
them more desirable than all others. A first
class mill, of the largest size, can be furnished
for sos.
Mills built on the same principle, without
the self-regulating apparatus, will be furnished
much cheaper. One of these mills will raise
water sufficient to thoroughly irrigate two
acres of ground, and will pump seventy-ive
barrels of water in three hours time; and as
the sea breeze extends over almost the entire
State, but few places can be found where there
is not always sufficient wind to drive these
mills.
B6y All orders sent to VIM. DERRICK,
Stockton, will be promptly attended to. Ev-
cry iron necessary to attach the motive power
to the pump, with weights, bolts, &C., furn-
ished with the mill.

DESTINY OF THE MoRMoNs.-Papua, a fine
island in, or bordering upon the Malay Archi-
pelago, forming boundary between the Pa
chic and Indian oceans, has, though not with
any apparent consent of the party most di-
rectly interested been selected as the proper
final resting place or land of Promise of the
Mormons; who, it is presumed have passed
the allotted time in their wanderings from the
Egypt of Illinois through the Western wilder
ness, pitching their tents for season in Des-
eret or Utah. This island is only inhabited
as yet by few very primitive untamable saw
ages, who, it is presumed, have no (territo-
rial) rights which any white (Mormon) is
bound to respect" and the only consent re-
quired, is that of the Mormons themselves
This island of Papua, although so long unap-
propriated by Caucasian fillibusters, is said to
be of great adaptation, in point of fertility,
every variety of climate, soil, &C., to the tenn
peramcnt, health and animal wants of the
European races. 1t is stated to be l40O miles
long, twice as large as all Great Britain, four
times as large as New York, one-third
larger than Utah, and only 800 miles from
fourishing European settlements 200 years
old. That it has so long remained unappro-
priated or unannexed" to the civilized rob-
Der powers of the world, is attributed to the
fact that neither gold mines nor spices have
yet been found there. 1t appears that a hint
has been given to the Mormons, through Mr..
Delegate Bernheisel, that their exodus hence
to that island would be agreeable to the Pres
ident; but so far, Brigham Il Co. have treated
the offer with rather contemptuous silence
equivalent to a mind your own business" or
keep your advice to yourself" and nothing
has yet come of this benevolent scheme for
leaving polygamy to its own working out on
this island, where its pestilent influences will
not taint other communities. The New York
Trio une warmly advocates the selection of
this spot by the Mormons, not only for the
reason above mentioned, but because they
would there become producers of various ar
ticles of great commercial value to the trade
of other nations, break up the venerable
Dutch monopoly of the commerce of the In
dian Archipelago, and destroy the whole sys-
tenn of Malay piracy, which yet curses the wa
ters of the Archipelago '' as much as before
European sail was seen upon them" In this
last reason, however, we should hesitate to
concur; for as we take it for granted that the
the Mormons are not more meek and forgiving
than other people, it might be possible that
instead of doing much towards abatng or
destroying the piratical system of the Malays,
they may wink at promote or go into pira-
cies against our commerce on their own ac-
count, in revenge of some quite real and other
imagined wrongs from the Gentiles of this
country. But, at any risk of this, it would
be, so far as now appears, good place of set
Element for these most wicked or most unfor-
tunate Pariahs and dsturbers of the public
peace and the established domestic and social
relations of other civilized people-Pittsburg

TX MARvELs ADDRESS TO FARMERS.

Donald G. Mitchell Tx MARVEL recently
delivered the annual address before the Con-
necticut State Agricultural Society. From a
condensed report in the Hartford papers we
select the following admirable closing para
graphs:
But there is something worth living for
besides money. That is very good, but is
not all. With the rest, LET US raise crop
Of good ideas. While you are farmer, re-
member that YOU are man, with duties and
responsibilities. Live down the old brutal
notion that farmer must be uncouth, un
educated and unthinking-a mere plOdder.
You are brought into immedii contact
with the great heart of civilization. You
cannot get out Of the toiling world. The
trill of the wonder-working wires and the
rumble Of the locomotive Ithe thunder threat
Oi nations) come to your once secluded bill
side.
Move toward better life. DO not keep
your BOYS corn shelling in the long winter
evenings. Make your farm place that your
sons and daughters cannot help loving. Gull
tiyate the trees-they are Gods messengers.
Don't say that you care nothing for looks.
You do care, else why did you build that
two story white house, with blinds, and
cnpola, into which You never gos Or why
did YOU, years ago, carefully brush your coat,
and pluck up your shirt collar, when you
we're starting, on n Sunday evening, to visit
the GOOD woman who now shares your home
Care much more for bnoks and pictures.
Don't keep solemn parlor, into which you
20 but once month with the parson or sew
ing society. Hang around your walls pic
lures that shall tell stories Of mercy, hore,
courage, faith and charity. Make your liy-
ing room the largest and most cheerful in
the house. Let your place be such that
when your boy has gone to distant lands, or
even when, perhaps, be clings to single
plank in the lonely waters OF the wide ocean,
The thought Of the still homestead shall come
across the desolation, bringing always light,
hope and love.
Have no dungeon about your housc--no
room you never open-no blinds that are
always shut.
Don't teach your daughters French before
they can weed a ilowcr.bed or cling to a side
saddle. And daughters! do not be afraid OF
the pruning.knife. Bring to your door the
richest flowers from the woods cultivate the
friendship Of birds scorn the scamp that
levels his murderous gun at the blue-bird o.
the robin. Study botany, learn to love ma
ture, aud seek higher cultivation than the
fashionable world would give you.
