THIS CELEBRATED GIN-pretending to no.
/ thing but what it is, viz: pure and unadul-
terated article, and assuming no artificial merits
of what it is not, as some Of its rival imitators
do-after five years of pnbic approval and very
extensive sales in California, has been pronounc-
ed by the public to be superior, not only as a
beverage of general use, to any other article
competing against it, but is

in most cases of complaints. To persons travel
ing in these days of rapid transit from East to
West, North or South, who are constantly chang
ing their water as we'll as their climate; who are
drinking, indeed dozen kinds of water in every
twenty-four hours, and each draught containing
some property acting in chemical antagonism to
the preceding one, thereby causing an unusual
degree of excitement to the somach-it is posi-
lively and absolutely necessary TO use counter
acting agent. From the fact that the
s'IOndon Club House Gin''
is prepared expressly to meet such exgencies,
and to act as we know it will act an, antidote,
we confidently prescribe it as the very best article
in the country. The name of "Aromatic Schei-
dam Schnapps'' has never been attached in any
way to this article. In first presenting the
'LOmdOm Club House Gin"
to the public, my aim was to give them pure
and unaduterated article of Gin, and to call it by
its right name The success attending its intro
duction and extensive sale in California is sui1i
cient 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 "Clu6 House Gin" Ny Gin which has
gained such reputation in California. is branded

A REMEDY FOR FEVER AND AGUE.-We
heard of remedy a few days since for fever
and ague, which, for its simplicity and not
hard to-take qualities, we regard as one of
the best extant The plan is to secure Il
bottle of sa1ratus and dissolve sufficient of it
in warm water, to make the water about the
same strength as the mineral springs found
on the plains. A little sulphur added to
the mixture has a very beneficial effect. BY
washing the whole body in this solution
about twice week, the pores of the skin open
and the insensible perspiration Of the system
allowed to evaporate and pass off. The bilious
secretions are regulated and the liver kept
in healthy condition. a Walk of mile
or two before breakfast every morning may
be INDUCED in with good effect. BY adopt
ING this method, and pursuing it regularly
through the summer months, we will insure
almost any person against the attacks of the

which, if "all right" is certainly very valua-

To a pint Of water add about thirty drops

of lime; wash in this two and a half pounds
of insupportably rancid butter; when every
particle of butter has come into contact with
the water, let it stand an hour or two, then
wash the butter well again in pure water;
the butter is then left with the odor, taste,

Well, there was a laugh, long and loud,
in which the General heartily joined, while
