CLUB HOUSE GIN.
TO THE PUBLIC.

TN S CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to
Il nothing but what it is, viz pure and I'M
adulterated article and assuming no artificial
merits of what it is not, as some of its rival imi-
tators do-after five years of public approval
and very extensive sales in California, has been
pronounced by the public to be superior, not on
ly as beverage of general use to any other ar
tcle competing against it, bnt is
Unrivalled in it's Medical Efficiency
in most cases of complaint. To persons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
West, North to South who are constantly chang
ing their water as well as their climate; who are
drinking, indeed, dozen kinds of water in ev-
cry twenty-four hours, and each draft contain
ing improperly acting in chemical antagonism
to the preceding one, thereby causing an unnat-
ural degree of excitement to the stomach-it is
positively and absolutely necessary to use
counteracting agent. From the fact that the
"London Club House Gin"
is prepared expressly to meet such exigencies,
and to act as we know it will act, as an anti
dote, we confidently prescribe it as the very best
article in the country The name of " Aromatic
Scheidam Schnapps' has never been attached
in any way to this article. In first presenting
the
"London Club House Gin"
to the public, my aim was to give them a pure
and unadulterated article of Gin and to call it
by its right name. The success attending its
Introduction and extensive sale in California is
a sufficient guarantee of the high appreciation
of the article by consumers.
Various parties have from time to time put up
and shipped TO California an article which they
call "Club House Gin" My Gin, which has
gained such a reputation in California, is brand
ed on the cases,
"Old london Club House Gin--wm.H.D."
The bottles also have white label with fac
smile of my signature. caution all parties to
beware of limitations WIN. H. DAILY,

To California Consumers
BILLINGS HAMS.

| DESIRE to call particular attention of con-
l. sumers in California to the label of a brand
upon my Hams, which in all cases bears fac
smile Of my signature, and is in every respect
the same label have used for many years past
The unriyalled reputation which my Hams
have long borne in the California market, rem
ders me exceedingly anxious that no Hams pack
ed by other persons should he mistaken for the
well known and genuine
HORACE BILLINGS HAMS,
And my present object is to ask consumers, es-
pecially to distinguish my Hams from certain
other Hams, which learn have this season been
sent to California on which the name of
BILLINGS
has been placed, with a label resembling mine
in style, type, &C.
My Hams are cured under my own personal
supervision, and their admitted excellence is
owing to the great care used, and the peculiar
preparation they undergo in curing, by which
delicacy of flavor, preservation of the juices of
the meat and freedom from undue saltness are
secured.
confidently assure purchasers ofmy Hams in
California that the cure of 1859 will be found of
the choicest quality and flavor, and fully equal
in all respects to any heretofore packed by me
for that market. HORACE BILLINGS,
Patentee, Beardstown, Illinois.
N. B. All barrels containing the Hams of this
seasons packing. in addition TO the usual brand,
will bear the words in red paint,

SOAKING FENCE PosTs.-A numbur of years
ago, we published in the CultiUator a receipt for
soaking fence posts in a solution of blue vitriol
which is worth republishing at this time, par
ticularly as our attention has been recently
called to it. The receipt of Mr. Geo. B. Green,
CT Windsor, Vt, as formerly published, was:
"One pound of blue yitriol to forty pounds Of
water. If the timber is dry soak it ten days; if
green, six will be sufficient. This solution will
do for all kinds of timber requiring exposure to
the weather--spouts, shingles, bean poles,
stakes, &C"
member of the Farmers Club, in Hudson.
recently informed us, that at a late meeting Of
that club, the subject was brought up for con-
yersation, and one of the members exhibited a
post, which previous to being placed in the
ground, had been soaked in solution of blue
vitrol-one pound of vitriol being used to
twenty quarts of water The post was pine. and
when taken up was as sound as when first put
down eight years since.-Country Gent.

An envious little frog,
Not bigger than an egg,

And snitten with his size,
Attempts to be as big.
With earnestness and pains,
She stretches, swells and strains,
And says, " Sis frog, look here, see me
Is this enough ?" "Poh poh
Enough you don't begin to be-"
And thus the reptile sits,
Enlarging till she splits.

The gentry live in princely state;

1t so happened, howbeit, that this was the

closed his eyes, than pair of blooming damsels
came in from the hall, and began adjusting their
disordered ringlets, the dim light of the tallow
candle not disclosing the tenant of the bed The
girls had tongues (like most of their sex }, which
ran on in this wise;

Whereupon the dear things chucked, " fixed

our half-conscious friend raised himself upon his

A MYSTERY OF THE PAsT.-An immense cata-
comb can be seen at Rothwell, in the interior oil
England, near the direct route from Liverpool
to London. 1t is an immense vault built of ma
sonry, under church which dates back appa-
rently for its first erection to about the year so
and contains the skeletons of 80, 900 men, prob
ably warriors of great size, piled up in regular
order, so that skulls and large bones only ap-
pear on the outside of the piles The skulls
show marks of spear and hatchet, but no gun
shot wounds, and their owners probably fell in
mortal conflict anterior to the invention of gun
powder. The vault was discovered by accident
$50 years ago, and has no connection with the
church as far as known in fact the mystery is
that there is no historical evidence nor tradi-
tionary legend which throws the least light up
on the obscurity of its erection. No anatomist,
ethologist, antiquarian nor savan of any stripe
has been able to decide the people even to whom
these bones once belonged. Were they native
Saxons, or Romans, Danes, Normans, or what ?
Nobody has more than guessed. A plausible
theory is that they belonged to Danish invaders,
slain by the Saxons about the year 1000; still
there is but a probability.
