ACCOUNTED FORA friend of ours, in con-
versation with a Democratic merchant Of Red
Bluff, who visited our town during the week,
asked why the Independent, published in
that fourishing town. was the recipient of
the advertising patronage of merchants of
the Democratic persuasion, when. a year
ago. that same sheet had to look elsewhere
for its bread and butter Most candidiy he
was answered: When we Democrats sue
coed in making convert, we keep him up"
Now we rather like that but would prefer
that Democrats should foot the whole bill of
costs for keeping that mill running. Union
men should cease paving any part Of it.

panied by large number of our citizens. Mr.

made them an appropriate speech, which
was well received.

%.THEATRIcAL.-It is rare that we have an
opportunity to head local as above. The
times don't admit of it. For the present
occasion we are indebted to the superior
enterprise of Mrs. Sallie Goodrich Thayer.-
Accompanied by her troupe" she arrived
in Shasta. on Monday last. On Tuesday
evening somebody blew few notes on some
wind instrument, and the people rushed to
the theatre. Sallie and her coad in
male attire began the show. About fifty
enwrapped human beings, at four bits a
head, saw the sight, listened for brief
time, and were satisfied that they were loser,
not only four bits, but whatever time they
might spend there Those of the audience
who affect "solo, +" pitch" &c, left early,
to seek consolation therein, while others
remained to witness the last scene. At the
close Mr.. Sweet, the manager, thanked the
audience, announced that they would perform
again on Wednesday, and hoped there would
be a larger attendance. of ladies in particu-
lar, for he liked to look at the ladies' The
playful cuss On Wednesday evening the
kettle drum sounded, the hall was lighted
a small dinner bell in the hands of young
urchin rung, but the people failed to respond,
and the theatrical lights were extinguished.

Rain Water a Cause of Consumption


Under this head Prof. j. Phillips, a ge
ologist OF some eminence, now residing OF
Dubuque, Iowa, writes to the "Times" OF
that city an article in which lie mantalns
the use of rain water, TO the exclusion Of
lime water, induces and is the cause of con.
sumption. 1t should be read with consid.
cradle interest. lie says:
"A fact has been developed by Lebih
the great animal chemist, in reference to
the origin Of consumption, that is not
generally known. In Analysing the blood
OF all persons Of pulmonary complaints he
found lack of lime in their blood And
this led 10 the natural conclusion that con
sumption was not a disease, but nothing
more or less than the breaking down Of the
system for the want OF elements to build il
up. A very curious fact in relation TO this
complaint is that consumption in the United
States is confined principally TO the granite
and san stone districts, where there is no
lime held in solution with the water, and a
| line drawn around these rocks encloses all
the principal consumptive districts in the
States. The same rule applies TO children
! teelhing. If the nursing mother wants to
have trouble with her children ieething, she
has only TO avoid food that contains lime, and
drink rain water; and when the period ar.
riyes toshave teeth, the whole energies oil
its little system will I've brought into action
TO eliminate lime sufficient 10 grow teeth
and this effart of nature produces the irri
tatiOn which mothers term the 'teethlnl
period"
1t is evident that persons who have com
/ pounded the hundreds Of roslrums to cure
consumption few, if any, OF these men have
the renotesl idea of the causes Of this com
plant, and consequently their preparation
would generally do harm in place of good
and il is not unreasonable to say that Their
are more medical properties in one barre
of spring water from one of the spring
about Dubuque where the water boils n
from this coraine limestone, holding i
solution lime, magnesia and other minera
matters in such condition as can be take
up by the alb nrhcnts Of the stomach, an
eliminated through the organization, than
car load Of 'pumouics' and 'panaceas. Alsc
that il one OF the rivers, the Maquolelc
Turkey, or other rivers of Iowa, that ris
and flow through purely coroIne, limeston
regions, could be turned through New Jer
sey and the New England States, and tn
people drink Of its water for generation
that consumption, a. a hereditary disease
would end"

How CHOLERA Is SUCCESSFULLY TREAT.
ED.-A letter from Alexandria (Egypt)
mentions preparation which has been very
successful in that country:
II may be said that cholera in its first
stage can always be successfully treated
unless the system is weakened by other
diseases, by dissipation, or by some special
cause.
The Rev. Dr. Hamlin's Cholera Mixture
equal parts by weight of liquid laudanum,
spirits of camphor and tincture Of rhu5arb
has been used here, moi only By him, but
by many others, with the greatest success
in meeting the first stage OF the disease. II
diarrhea is carefully kept off by the use OF
this mixture, the danger OF cholera is very
slight.
In the second stage of relapse and cramps
clear brandy taken internally, mustard pla,-
tiers and other means Of keeping up eXleua
heat by friction, Sc, are very often use,
with success. There is always hop- u
cholera until the patient is actually dead
and in severe cases recovery often depend
upon the presidency and energy with whicI
the disease is met and attacked at every
stage.
