Crooke's Electric Oil.
For the last few years great many medicines
have been offered to the public, all purporting to be
superior remidies but certainly no one has ever
gained such undivided praise and support in short
a time as
CROOKES ELECTRIC OIL.
1t has been only a few months since it was first
offered to the public and it has already performed
many wonderful cures. 1t has gained high and
enviable reputation in many of the States and the
day is not far distant when the praises of American
freemen viii speak their greatful Acknowledgements
in all sections of the country for the introduction of
this great remedy. That it will cure every disease
to which human flesh is heir, we do not pretend,
but that it has unequaled power in the relief and
cure Of
rheumatism, Neuralgia, DC.
is fact which is proved by the evidence in its
favor.
In writing about medicine we are aware VIC
should write truth, that make statements that
cannot be proved, but we have the witnesses crowds
of them who will testify in terms stronger than
be written TO the efficacy of this wonderful remedy
who will testify that CROOKES ELECTRIC
OIL has done for them what all other remedies had
failed to do. If you doubt its superior qualities ask
those who have used it, many of them live in ON
midst and can answer for themselves; but it will
only cost a small amount to purchase bottle, and
you can never be convinced Of its true merits unit
you try it for yourself
We want every badly to try it for themselves, and
if it proves to be good they can recommend it Il
others. If it fails they may condemn it to the world
! If the great popularity and rapidly increasing
demand of medicine can be any evidence ofits merit
then Crookes Electric Oil is a superior remedy

RESPECT TO THE DEPARTED.-The greatest trib
ute of respect ever paid by the press of this State
TO a departed citizen, is chronicled in memory of
David c. Broderick. With few, very few, ma
lignant exceptions, the editors of California have
spoken justly and in kindness Of the departed
dead 1t is no time for unkind remark now the
grave has closed over him, and if good cannot be
spoken, it is better that evil should not be. A
portion Of the press in favor of the present Ad-
ministration, and in opposition to the dead Sena-
tor, have endeavored to do him full justice, ae-
owledging the existing differences TO be mere
political ones, only, among which the San Fran.
cisco Herald takes honorable lead. Some oppo-
sition papers have been unnecessarily vindictive
in their charges and opinions regarding the un-
fortunate termination OF the late duel. II will
eject no good. II the press Of California. with
one united voice, would condemn the practice Of
the disgraceful ''code," beneficial results might
follow. A lar already cxists-either make it
answer the ends for which it was created or blot
it from the books. The person who will act as
second in duel is as guilty as the principal, and
should be dealt with accordingly.
