MEDICAL ADVICE.-Dr. VIM. X. Doberty's
Medical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine
qua non 10 the welfare Of our State and health
of our citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
tion although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal OF skill and follows the natural effect OF
such u cause We are personally acquainted with
gentlemen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease, and who had taken advantage Of
every available means that promised relief, hut
without success until they called upon Dr.. Do
herty. who, in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. It is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is gen.
tleman who seeks, not by defamation Of Others
to establish his reputation, or 20 rear the super
structure of his own upon The ruin of another's
fame. The Doctor conducts his Institute in such
II manner that must be gratifying to all his PIT
tients. He examines, advises, and recommends
without charge, and the patient, after hearing
his terms for treatment, can accept or reject 1T
pleasure. l" no case dces the Doctor make q
charge unless he effects cure. This, he is able
to- do. because he feels the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the consola-
tiOn which appertans to that confidence. Per-
sons afflicted with either acute or chronic disease
would do well to consult the Doctor; at all events
it can do no harm, rs Tor consultation be asks no
fee; nor does he insist on obedience TO his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.
His offices are on Sacramento street. opposite to
the Pacific Mail Steamship ofice.-[S. +. News.

A Noble Answer.

Alter the news OF the assassination of Mr..
Lincoln reached Concord, New Hampshire,
a mob went to the house of Ex'President
Pierce, 10 demand from him an expression
of his views regarding the event. OF course
he denounced the assassination. Having
said, 1--WE can never forget or cease to de-
plore the great crime and deep stain," some
one in the asssmblage shouted out, Where
is your flag2" This was an insult, and so
meant. Mr.. Pierce responded to it as fol-
lows:
ut is not necessary for me TO show INV
devotion for the stars and stripes by any
special exhibition, or upon the demand Of
any man or body Of men. My ancestors
followed II through the Revolution Of
them, at least, never having seen bis moth
er's roof f'om the beginning to the close of
that protracted struggle. Ny brothers fol
lowed it in the war Of 1912; and left my
family, in the spring of ls47, among you,
to follow its fortunes and maintain il upon a
foreign soil. But this you all know. Ifthe
period during which have served our State
and country in various situations, commerc-
ing more than thirty'6ve years ago, have Ief.
the question OF my devotion to the flag, the
Constitution and the Union in doubt, il is
too late now to remove it, by any such exhi.
bition as the inquiry suggests. Besides, to
remove such doubts from minds where lhey
have been cultivated by spirit Of domino,
ton and parlizan rancor, If such a thing
were possible, would be Of no consequence
to you, and it is certainly none 10 me. The
malicious questionings would return to re,

Proceedings of the Board of Supervisors.


Tuesday, June 18th, 1865.
special meeting of the Board of Supervisors
of Placer County is hereby called for the purpose
of taking some action in regard to the report of
the Grand Jury made at the June term, 1865, of
the County Court, in matters pertaining to the
County Hospital. Signed,
D. W. MADDEN.
A. e. SCOTT
In pursuance of the above call the Board met
this 18th day ofJune, A. d. 1868. Present. d. W.
Madden and A. b. Scott; and w. B. Lyon, C|erk.
On motion, a committee consisting OF B. f.
Myrcs, F. W. Todd. S. 3. Woodn and NJ Fannon
was appointed with directions to proceed to the
County Hospital and make such examination and
inquiry into the general, present and past con
dilon OF said hospital, the condition and general
care bestowed upon patients therein, the kind
and quality of provisions furnished, and all mat.
ters pertaining to the care. maintenance and
medical treatment Of the INDECENT sick Of said
county, and report the result OF their investiga-
tions to this Board at their earliest convenience
After investigation the said committee made
the following report
To the Hon. Board of Supervisors of Placer
County. -GENTLEMEN:- Your committee upon
the state Of the County Hospital and its man.; Re-
ment. after careful examination beg leave to
report hat
lst The groceries and provisions found there
and inspected by us, which we are assured are the
were OF unexceptionable kind, and we have been
informed by Mr.. Gordon and MIR. Furnss, who
supply the vegetables and some OF the groceries
and bread, that every thing purchased from them
for the Hospital is OF the best quality aud us far
rs we could learn were furnished to the patients
in quantity, as is deemed by the attending physi.
clan, sufficient Tor the wants OF each particular
patient.
I'd. The police regulations are us good rs could
be expected from the class O men found in such
Institutions. There was no want OF cleanliness
either Of the men or their bedding the convent.
ences Tor bathing were ample, and water abun-
dant.
Sd. The bedding we think is of the plaiuest
quality but in sufficient quantity, and we Observ-
ed that those patients who were bedridden were
made especially comfortable in this respect
4th. There being at present but three of this
class we consider that q complaint OF insufficient
attention is not well founded.
5th. We have no means OF knowing any thing of
the course OF treatment pursued towards each or
any Case nor did we deem that within the prov.
luce OF our inquiries but the medicines supplied
we learned were put up by the Druggist OF Au-
burn. as prescribed by the attending physician,
and did not differ in quality from that furnished
to citizens OF the town.
In short we ARE happy to state that we found
no want OF the essentials Tor the proper conduct
OF such IN institution, and they were literally
supplied.
We are also of the opinion that had the proper
courtesy been extended to the attending pbvsi.
clan by visiting committees he could have ex.
planned to their satisfaction apparent delinquen-
cies.
