To California Consumers
......OF......
BILLINGS HAMS.

7 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 a fac
similie 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 be mistaken for the
well known and genuine
HORACE BILLINGS HAMS,
And my present object is to ask consumers, es-
other Hams, which learn have this season been
sent to California. on which the name of
BILLINGS
has been placed, with 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 of my Hams in
California that the cure ofl659 will be found o
the choicest quality and flavor, and fully equa
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,

The spree is done, and the daylight
Streams DER my tenantless bed,
As sudden cold descendeth
On some o'erheated head.
see the hotel walters
Sweeping the dusty hall;
and a feeling of nausea comes Ger me,
And my spirits heavily fall
A feeling of nausea and sickness
That is rather akin to pain,
And resembles drunkenness somewhat
IS the froth resembles Champagne.
Come, mix for me some potion
Some simple and cooling drink
That may ease this restless headache,
And give me strength to think.
Not from the brandy bottle
Not from that liquor red,
Whose painful throbbings echo
In thunder through my head;
For, like ipecac or senna,
Its mocking lips suggest
A night of sleepless trouble;
And this morn | long for rest.
But take some purer liquid,
Which gushed from the grapes rich hear
As lies from the tongues of widows,
Or tears from maidens start;
Which, under foreign climates,
Where suns more mildly shine,
Was ripened into nectar,
And labelled " Sparkling Wine"
Such drinks appease the stomach
When other drink it shuns,
And come like the loan of hundred
When fellow is pressed by duns
Then take from the treasured basket
The bottle of thy choice
And let me hear as it opens,
The popping of its voice;
And the morn shall be filled with cocktail
And the cares of the early day,
Like disappointed collectors,
Shall silently steal away

OLD BLAST T-ME-EYEs DoUGLAs-Crazy Pickett,
of San Francisco, has written letter to the
Standard in defence of Gov. Douglas, of British
Columbia. He says of him:
" The Blood of Scotia's Douglas flows in his
veins, of which noble race he is worthy scion.
Had Diogenes met him the day he hunted Ath-
ems thoroughfare to find man, he would have
pronounced him one and l. at war with my
species for the self same reason, that adore
true manhood and find so little, thus hiss to the
vast crowd of ours of low degree that in snarl-
ing and yelping at the Governor of British Co.
lumbia, they snarl and yelp at a MAN."

LON b GIN
CLUB HOUSE GIN.
TO THE PUBLIC.

TH I S CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to
Il nothing but what it is viz: pure and un-
adulterated article, and assuming no artificial
merits of what it is not as some of its rival im-
tators do-atter 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
ticle competing against it, bnt is
Unrivalled in its Medical Efficiency
in most cases Of complaint Topersons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
West, North to South, who are constantly chang
ing their water well as their climate: who are
drinking, indeed, dozen kinds of water in ev-
cry twenty-four hours, and each draft contain
ing some property 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 a
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 Schnappsn has never been attached
in any way to this article. In first presenting
the
''London Club House Gino
to the public, my aim to give them pure
and unadulterated article of Gin, and to call it
by its right name. The success attending it's
introduction and extensive sale in CaIifoania is
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" Ny Gin, which has
gained such 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. WM H. DAILY,

ed faithful to him in the fortified aoul of Gounib.
Gounib is fortified stronghold, on very eleva-
ted ground, of large extent. On three sides the
rocks are perpendicular; the only other side
was deemed impregnable, and it was supposed
that handful of determined men could have de-
Tended it for months against any odds.
"Prince Bariatinsk ordered the attack to be
made on both sides at once. The attack com
menced on the Tth of September. While the chief
attack was made on the only accessible side n
number of men, who volunteered, scaled the
rocks. 0fthe4O0s murides in Gounib only Al
remained alive. Five guns were captured
Schamyl retired to house cut out in the
solid rock. The plateau was covered with corp
ses. We have lost more than 100 men, Prince
Baratinsk, who had come up, summoned
Schamyl to surrender, and ordered his men to
cease firing. The Imam asked upon what cond-
tons
"'Come out without conditions said the
Prince.
'Schamyl came out, and Prince met him,
though advised by his officers to retire for fear
of ftreachery.
"'Are you Schamyl ? said the Prince. 'Yes,
lam, replied the Imam. Well your life is
safe you may keep your wives and treasure,
but tomorrow | send you to St. Petersburg
Your fate will depend upon the will of the En-
peror, my august master
'Schamyl bowed without uttering word
The Prince then said to him, l expected you at

your submission. As you did not, | was obliged
to come and seek you here.

is consequently in great demand by persons
travelling, or about to settle in parts of the
country especially, as well as by many in every
community, where it has become known on
account of its various other remedial proper
ties
In all cases of a dropscal tendency, it is gen.
orally the only remedy required, when adopted
in the early stage of the disease.
In Dyspepsia maladies, when taken in proper
quantities, as a diet drink, and especially at
dinner, it is found, by uniform experience to be
eminently eificacCus in the most obstinate cases.
when even the best of the usual remedies have
failed to afford more than temporary relief. In
cases Of Flatulency, it is an immediate and in
variable specific, and it may be administered in
diluted and proportionate quantities, even to
Young Infants, in all those paroxysms of gripping
pain in the stomach and bowels to which they
are especially subject, as well as in the collie of
grown persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the
principal meals when a sense of exhaustion
dictates its use never fails to relieve the debii-
ty attendant upon protracted chronic maladies,
low temperament and exhausted vital energy, by
whatever cause induced. These are facts to
which many of the most eminent medical men.
both in England and the United States, have
borne testimony, and which are corroborated by
the highest written authorities.

MILrTARY.-We observe from the reports of
the Assessors of Shasta, Trinity and Butte coun-
ties, that the military lists of these counties
number as follows: Shasta, 1853; Trinity,
l,45s; Butte, 2, ,72s. AT the recent election the
vote of Shasta county was 1885, or 237 more
than the number of her citizens liable to do
military duty. The vote of Trinity was 2 ll8,
being $50 more than the number of her citizens
liable to do military duty. The vote of Butte
was 1895, or ,2Oe greater than the number of
her citizens liable to do military service. From
these figures it will readily be perceived that
the number Of men over As years of age in this
State is very smal-these three counties doubt
less furnishing very fair criterion by which to
judge the whole State. Although it cannot be
said of our people as it was said of the Jews
when they departed from Egypt, that not one
feeble person was to be found among all the
tribes" yet it can with truth be said that no
other government ON earth embraces so great
preponderance of young and healthy meh.
