of our most praiseworthy institutions 1t is pure.
ly benevolent in its character, and has been the
means of sending life and light into many needy
household. The design and the purpose for which
it is founded is to render aid and relief to iremen
who are injured and disabled while upon duty
Since its organization many hundred dollars have
been paid out to such disabled members of the Fire
Department The sum of So per week is paid to
such, SO long as they gre prevented by illness from
work or service Such an institution should be
upheld and encouraged by every phlanthropic
heart, and not merely should sympathy be feltWith
the purposes of the Association, but material aid
should be rendered TO keep the treasury supplied,
that the work Of mercy may never languish for
want of funds. We hope therefore that our citi-
zens will purchase tickets to the Ball to be given
on Thursday evening next at the American and
Gray's Armory, for the benefit Of this Association.
Those who do not attend public parties, need have
no ohestatonin in purchasing tickets and then staying
at home, for every dollar of the proceeds after pay
ing necessary expenses, will go for charitable pur.

Letter from a CIeveiander Specimens of
the Gold in cur Possession.
The following letter will be read with great in
tersst by all who contemplate going to the new
gold fields Of the Rocky Mountains. 1t seems to
be fair and candid statement of what the writer
is doing and what the prospects are for those who
60 to this new El Dorado. We should consider
this letter decidedly favorable, and it will, no
doubt, have its influence with those who have
thoughts of going, but are as yet undecided.
CAMP BowMER, PIKE's PEAK, Jan. "a, '59.
FRIEND WILLIAM Thinking perhaps, that
you might want to hear from US, or at least from
the Gold Mines of this part of the country, and
the boys are anxious that you should come out in
the Spring, take this opportunity of writing you.
We left Independence Sept 1st, and arrived here
in Oct, and have been in the mines ever since.
We ethinkthe prospects good, perhaps its not quite
equal to California when we we're there in '52 but
about as it was in "a. the time left you will see
by the specimen 1 send you, the quality we are
getting here. It is float, but in some other local
tiles it is larger and much easier mined. We are
using tom, with quicksilver in the box, and our
average Is from eight to fifteen dollars per day
which for winter operations is pretty good pay.
We expect to do much better in the Spring, these
Springs did in '53, we have had come trouble to
get quicksilver, as but few brought any with them,
and as a consequence, have not done as we'll as
they would had that article been more plenty, but
as soon as Spring opens, we will not want it, as
we can then operate in the gulches and ravines
for coarse gold, 1t has not been very cold here,
as yet, some snow, but not much. These three
pages of paper are all we have in camp, will write
again soon 1 am going to Cherry Creek next
week, will write from there. Us.
The following note will show how this letter
came into our possession. The owner will pardon
US for copying it into cOlumss, and if he will
call upon US he can receive his gold which was
found in this letter.

WHEN TO EAr.--Physiologists are
not agreed as to the time when we
should take nourishmcnt. o. $. Fow-
Ter. the PhrenoIogist. is Of opinion that
man should eat but once IA day, and
that he should spend an hour in the
process. Others think we should eat
frequently, and but II small portion at
Il time. Every organ, to maintain It's
health, must have alternate rest and
exercise. The digestive organs form
no exception 10 this rule. 1t eXercis.
ed too much by frequent eating, they
become tired and worn down, and re-
fuse to perform their accustomed
function. So. also, il exercised too
seldom, they lose their proper tone,
aud Dyspepsia is the consequence
| ain not sure whether it is preferable
to eat twice or three times day.
But for persons in health, it is perhaps
better to eat three times at u o'clock
in he morning, at twelve, and at six
in the evening. OItener than this is
improper; as the stomach would have
no time to rest after finishing the di-
gcston of IA meal. Dyspepiics, as a
general rule. had better eat but twice
IA day, as that will give the stomach
an opportunity to rest more, a thing
Indispensable in all such cases.
