County Physicians Repcrt.
To THE HoS. TIE BOARD OF SUPERVISOR
FOR SHASTA COUNTY

To THE Hos. THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FOR SHASTA COUNTY:
The undersigned, as County Physician.
has the ilenor to submit to you, for your in
spection and information, an expose of the
management of the County Hospital, for
quarter ending lst February, 1864, together
with general summary for the year.
The nnu Der Of patients On hand at the
close Of last quarter was s !; admitted since,
IL. giving as the whole number treated dur.
ing the quarter, 10. OF these have died. 9
left Voluntarily. discharged cured or reliev.
ed. and remain on hand under treatment.
Whole namber OF days, 500. ..
The amount of bills herein presented for
allowance is ol666 so. They were contract.
ed for the maintenance of the INDECENT sick
in the County Hospital. under nv immedi.
ate supervision and although approved by
me. they are recommended TO rigid scruti-
ny.
The number of persons treated in County
Hospital during the past year is as follows :
fo- quarter ending lst of May. 81; lst OF
August, 10; lst of November, %; lst of Feb
ruarv. 10 total. So OF these have died
5 left voluntarily not cured, and the remain
der cured or discharged eonyalescent Ag-
gregate of days for the year, 3.92. Last year
it was 25G9. giving an increase for the year
OF 793 days.
The amount Of expenditures for the year is
as follows. for quarter ending lst MAY.
Sl007 10: lst of August, 1852 &c 4; lst If
November. S956 so; lst of February. as
herein submitted, Sl006 so. Total, So. .95l
75. For the year previous the expenditures
were 81, 42l 05. showing a reduction in the
expenditures for the year of SI69 80.
The present audited debt is S4. 80 SO. to
which add bills contracted during last quar-
ter, S,006 so, and you have the whole amount
of debt, exclusive of interest. S5.3iS S3. Last
year the amount of debt was S., 75S 40, show
ing reduction of the debt during the year of
S439 81.
The amount of net revenue during the year
was from property tax. 1886 % per cap
ita tax, 1925 80. Total, S4.150 so.
IL is thus apparent. from figures. that the
Hospital has been economically and judici-
ousIy managed during the year, and that its
finance is ia healthy condition. and that
notwithstanding the price of groceries has
materially advanced, and the reFenue mate
rally reduced, the expenditure. have been
reducsj below the income, thus leaving a
considerable margin for the gradual reduc-
ton of the Hospital debt.
No better evidence can be offered. or argu-
ment used, in favor of the wisdom of the con.
tinuance of the present system.

Buy A TicKEr.-Evcrybody should buy

Buy A TicKEr.-Evcry body should buy
ticket in aid of the Sanitary Fund, because
the object and aim is the most humane, and
holy to which we can lend our aid Fathers
should buy ticket and preserve it for their
children, SO that they may see in after years
that their parents were worthy of the name of
/. patriots. Brothers should buy ticket, that
their sisters may not blush for their want of
gratitude, when brought face to face with the
returned volunteer, whose emaciated form
will show that the assistance rendered by
the Sanitary Commission reached him in time
to save his life. Young men you who are
in. this country, enjoying the benefits ofpeace
and quiet, far from the strife of civil war,
while those you are asked to assist were the
foremost in the battle ranks, standing boldly
and fearlessly between you and the foul des
,rover of nations honor, you, above all
others should buy ticket. 1t is but drop
III the ocean of means required. but. like the
rain drops from the o'ercharged clouds that
increase the already rising stream, it viii
help to swell the main body until the banks
of sickness and distress are overfowed, and
the cry of despair is drowned in one immense
shout of JOY and gladness.
We feel assured that the ladies througout
the county will impress upon those who's come
within their ll-powerful influence, the duty
we all owe to our country, God and humani-
ty, in connection with this noble work.

"HAySzs'' writes from Copper City, un-
der date of Feb. 9th, as fnllows:
The Original Williams Kellenger are
prosecuting their work with vigor, running an
arastra and sinking shaft. working seven
hands. They are getting out more copper
rock to ship. They can get out two tens per
day to the hand, and get an advance of S7l
on the ton. So you see it will nay.
The Original Bully Hill Company are at
work with nine hnnda on road to their tun-
mel. They viii commence their tunnel next
Monday. 1t will be about 500 feet long, 200
feet of which is under contract at 81 so per
foot.
The Original Minnesota Company have
sunk shaft 80 feet on spur of the lode,
and commenced this morning running tun-
mel to the main lode twill be so feet long,
and ? feet per day can be constructed. The
rock is soft, and by following the spur they
get along very fast. They have taken out
some rock full Of sulphurets, but how good is
not yet known.
The Original Twenty six Company COM
mence their tunnel on Monday. They have
let contract for running so feet. at Sc so
per foot. They will have to run l40 feet to
strike the lode. There is an abundance Of
copper in there somewhere.
The Baxter Company are working night
and day, and are in about ninety feet. They
expect to strike the lode in 90 or so feet
more, at depth CT about 200 feet. Tie
upper tunnel shows lode of five or six feet
wide, OF good copper rock.
The kessler Company commence next
week. They intend working three sets of
hands.
There are twelve companies Incorporated,
and FIVE more that wi bo soon. So you see
that business will open in earnest us soon
as we drink up what whisky we have on
hand, for man cant drink and work at
the same time.

soldiers Vote Declared Unconstitutionsi.

A long and ABLY written decision of the
Saturday last. in which the Court unanimous
ly concur in declaring Unconstitutional tie
law of 1868 which authorizes the voting a
California volunteers in the service of the
General Government, wherever they may be
on election day.
To saw that we are surprised Mt this deci
cion IS but admitting the truth; and yet, af
ter a careful reading of the decision, we
frankly admit ,he force Of its reasoning and
conclusions. and the decision to be such as
should have been rendered. Notwithstand-
ing we regret that our soldiers are not per
mitted to vote at our elections. when they are
in the field in defence of our flag. yet to know
that we have Supreme Court, just entered
upon ~ long term of Office that has the frank
ness to come out boldly and render decision
in direct opposition to public expectations
and the popular sentiment of our people, and
to place that decision solely upon the arbi-
trary requirements of the Constitution, gives
confidence in the integrity of the Court that
will carry conviction to the mind ofevery un-
preiudiced individual, that our laws will be
hereafter administered according to the strict
letter of the Constitution.
The question virtually rests upon what
constitutes residence of citizen, sufficient
to make him legal voter. Upon this point
the Court say:
That part of Section l. Article 2, having
the most important hearing on the question,
is as follows: "A citizen &C., ''who shall
have beea n resident of the State six months
next preceding the election, and of the coun-
ty or district in which he claims his rote
thirty days. shall be entitled to vote at all
elections,' &c.
The Court then proceed to say: 8 In our
Judgment, formed upon careful examination
and reflection, the phrase claims his vote
means, as related to what precedes it, offers
his vote -
Thence follows the conclusion that the vote
Of each citizen must be offered to the proper
officers of election within the actual bounda-
rics of his place of residence for the thirty
days next preceding the day of election, and
that the Legislature has no right to grant to
our soldiers any rights which every citizen
in the civil walks of life may not possess and
exercise.
The decision is we'll worthy the careful
perusal and consideration Of every citizen,
in times like these, when our existence as
nation depends upon the necessary absence
Of SO many of our loyal voters.
