his means toward the purchase of South Carroll

Cuba.

CONGRESSMAN Buncu.-The Sacramento CORES
WEAVERVILLE, CAL,
Saturday Morning, April q, 1861.

CONGRESSMAN BURCn.-The Sacramento cores
pondent of the Yreka Union writes
Burch has written another letter, in which he
claims to be Union man-frst last, and all the
time. / learn by private letter from Trinity
county, that not a citizen there indorsed his let
ter, to Charles r. Street. Burch has labored
faithfully for the interests of our State his eX-
ertions for the California War Bill are worthy of
notice. He leaves New York for this State, on
the goth inst, and will probably be a candidate
for re-election. Being Breckinridge man-if
there is no fusion-his chances for success are
not hattering."
And even if there is fusion, he will find home
opposition rather formidable His former law
partner, Judge Pitzer has already announced to
his friends bis purpose of striving for Congress-
i0naI honors. So Mr.. Burch will have to beat
Mr.. Pitzer in his own county before he can even
get before fusion State Convention. Can he do
it? Doubtless Judge Pitzer thinks not.-Shas Ia

OPINION, GaArs.-In regard to the talked-of
policy OF withdrawing the Government forces
from Fort SUMTER the 1ha CaiVorHia remarks
"The Republican papers which had assailed
Buchanan for not reinforcing SUMTER will be at
their wits end to defend Lincoln for the entire
withdrawal of the troops, while their Democratic
contemporaries may be forced to come out for
war policy for opposition, in politics ss we'll as
In every other trade, is the life of business 1t
will never occur TO them, Of course, that what
Mr. Buchanan could do with mpunity, so far as
the South is concerned, Mr.. Lincoln could not
attempt without serious consequences, from the
fact that one has always been considered u friend
and the other an enemy"

SALARIES FOR County OFFIcERs.-Itis is proposed
to pay the officers of Solano county on the salary
system, instead Of the fee system, as heretofore.
The Solano MraH says the proposition is to give
the Recorder, $4,000; Auditor, $4,000 Treasu-
rer 1000 Sheriff, S., 900; Supervisors, SO per
day. The other Offices to remain as they are, or
with slight variation from the present salaries.
Should this bill pass, as doubtless il will there
will not be such a scrabble after offices next Fall
as there was two years ago. Once seekers can't
live on $4,000 year, while hard working men
can support family on half that amount. The
fact is, it requires too much capital to secure an
election

HNr TO PARENTS ON CunDREN's TEETH DR..
w. II. Irwin of San Francisco in an article re-
Gently published, says:
Our design in this treatise Is to offer some
points and hints to parents for the perfection,
preservation and general health of the teeth.
First, y mother should not under any possible
circumstance, nurse the child at the breast If she
have decayed teeth. Carries are known in Atomy
dental gangrene, or mortified bone In the mouth.
All rotten teeth are mortified bone or carries.
There is not more positive law of our being, or
q more true rule in physiology, than that the
child will inherit imperfect and diseased teeth II
the mother has them; in fact all that forms blood,
muscle, tend0ns cartilege or bone, is derived
from the mother, therefore she should above
every other consideration in health, keep a mouth
entirely exempt from any form Of disease. BY
doing she can rely with confidence that her
offspring will have healthy gums and permanent
structure in their teeth. Unwholesomc, nauseous
teeth create offensive breath, sore lips, pimples
around the mouth, neuralgia, necrosis, abcess In
the maxiliaries Oaws,) or alveOlar process, with
more or ess infainmatio on Of the nerve centres
around the head and spinal column, and not un-
frequently cartilaginOus tumors about the face,
enlarging tonsis, and catarrhal running from the
ose, sore throat, scarlet fever, Group, pneumonia
aud other ills that often prove fatal In families,
are the sad result from swallowing food from a
Diseased mouth, especially where the patient is
carrying dental gangrcne 30 near the larnyX,
throat, lungs and stomach, and not unfrequcntly
the eye and voice are involved ia the matter.
| do unhesitatngy affirm, as physician Of
long observation, experience and study in ply
sology, anatomy and medicine, that ii our peo-
pie would enjoy life and secure health, they
must positively refrain from swallowing food or
breathing air on their lungs from rotten teeth,
liberated roots, with sore gums and nauseous
mouth.

the circumstance, spoke Of shooting the dog as it
too dangerous to have him alive III such condition.
