TRAvEL.-Ihere is a large increase OF travel be-
tween this city and Sacramento. This is said to be
attributable to the Chico route TO Idaho. And this
travel is sure to increase when the railroad con-
nection is made. But when that will be il is hard
to anticipate II is said that the proprietors Of the
Yuba railroad have gone into the land speculation
with the money obtained from citizens, and
from our county treasury. by false pretenses We
are informed that Wilson Co. have purchased
forty lot al the present terminus Of the rail-
raod-MarysriAe Appeal.
Bosh Go On and build your railroads. The en-
ergy of Colonel Wilson has built what there is of
the Yuba railroad, almost without assistance. and
he IL entitled to much credit therefore He has
been stolen poor. and kept poor by the thieving
and rotten concern konwn as the Dutch Flat and
Sacramento Central Pacific Railroad The small
pittance Yuba county has given to help the enter
prise along is nothing in comparison to the advan-
tages it will confer upon the county, and you had
better double the sum than to talk of its having
been obtained by false pretences." Crowd the
ranad through to the Feather River, and there you
will be in . position to help send it through the
Nevadas by natural pass, which good and
servcelble railroad be cheaply built that will
destroy the Dutch Flat and Sacramento abortion
and increase and keep the tide of trade through
AArysville. The idea Of grumbng over what you
have already given in aid of railroad enterprise
Is as absurd as the idea that great increase Of
trevel is occasioned by the tri-weekly tine of mud
wagons, drawn by mustangs, to Idaho. 1t is the
progress of your railroad that has occasioned it,
Crowd it through and you will build up daily lines
of stages to various parts, and will find it much
better than waiting in grumbn g idleness for tr
weekly lines run upon government subsidies to
build You up great city. Wade in. you are on
true line for the great Pacific and Atlantic railroad
and it is bound to come.

had two fights during the day of the murder in
both Of which White was shoekingly beaten. Not
contented with intiicting this punishment on his
antagonist, about nine o'clock at night Sutton took
dis rifle and went to where White was sleeping, in
q wagon-box, and deliberately shot him dead. This
shot was heard by the people at the Overland sta
ton and by the telegraph operator Sutton made no
attempt TO escape but gave himself up. He was
tried for the shocking crime at Tooele City the
county sent of Tooele county, in Utah Territory.
and was convicted of murder. He was allowed the
option of d! ing on the gallows or being shot, in
accordance with the laws of the Territory. He
preferred the latter and will be executed morrow.

NOTHING THAT Is NOT WHOLESOME,

the composition of Hosfetter's Stomach Bitters.
This popular preparation contains mineral o;
exctant: bat il is combination of the extracts of
rare balsamic herbs rnd plants with the purest and
mildest of all diffusive stimuants.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigoraied and
the appetite restored by this agreeable Tonic and
hence it works wonders in case OF Dyspepsia and
gentle and painless aprerient, as well as upon
the liver, it also invariably relieves the Constpa-
ton superinduced by irregular action of the dges-
tive secretive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Nervous At
tacks Lowness Of Spirits and Fits of Languor
find prompt and permanent relief from the Bitfers.
The testimony on this point is most conclusive and
from both sexes.
The agony of Bilious Collie is immediately
suaged by single dose OF the stimulant, and by
occasionally resorting TO it, the return of the COM
plant may be prevented.
: AS General Tonic Hoste,ters Bitters produce
effects which must he experienced or witnessed be-

SoxE Of the vhilom peace journals are really dis
cushing the probabilities Of another war with con-
siderable gusto, and eomplaeensly locate the scene
Of the next conflict in tie northern States, provid
ing the people do not vote according TO their way
Of thinking. The amount of public respect and
confidence TO which such journals are entitled. may
justly be measured by the fact they always for
peace during war, and for war during peace. Nov
a common sense view is against any further civil
war in America. There can be none-there must
be none. The folly of rebelling against the 5ecis
ion Of the ballot box has been fully demonstrated
In Republic, like ours. the majority must be per-
mitted to decide the policy of the Government At
the ballot box. they viii decide it elsewhere. 1t
is not sound reasoning to suppose that the people
viii be Influenced in their political convictions by
impotent threats of another civil war, from those
whom war has cured Of even their fiibustering
propensities. There is really no danger Of another
civil war, until after fit out several libnsterng
expeditions Failing to whip their neighbours boys
these turbulent spirits may be led to believe that
they can whip their big brother, and sail in for
family fight. When such period shall arrive, how.
ever; those lp-valiants who are now invoking war,
will be the first to crawl into the barrels of the
Derringers with which their pockets are usually
stuffed, and watch the conflict they now invoke
through-the cap protuberance. There is no De-
mocraey about them, for the last Democratic State
Convention of California congratulated the country
upon the restoration of peace, and pledged them
selves TO its maintenance. Those who now prate
of another civil war, are Of no consequence among
man kind, and are simply aspiring to be occupants
Of guard house presided over by freedmen soldiers
and citizens if they do not keep cool and exercise

ISrEREsrING FIGUREs.-The -iita of Tuesday
last contains the commercial and financial statistics
of this State for the first nine months OF 1866 pre-
pared with much care and ability. From the fig
ures presented the material progress and solid I'M
provement Of the State are placed beyond all ques-
tlon. The exports Of domestic produce shows the
gratifying increase in value Of 81 ,sll 7s9 over the
corresponding period of previous year. 1865. This
result is chiefly owing to the increased expectations
OF breadstufs. The increase in grain and flour has
been So ,ss5.2l 10. This result would be still
gratifying but for the lack of sufficient ton
mage to export the grain and -four. Commission
merchants have been compelled to store great guam
titles. and their operations have consequently been
aterially retarded Our largest customer for -four
has been China. Australia and New Zealand have
purchased of wheat and -four together, to the
amount of $7l5,643 IS. China has purchased to the
extent of $40 1875 95 and Great Britain has taken
SS06 ,265, worth of wheat. Thus it will be seen
that these three markets have already paid So
49, ss 05 in exchange for domestic produce
during the present year. The Eastern States have
taken Sll0,232 81 of wheat from our shores. In
California wines there has been progressive move
ment. and the value has reached sl47 ,975 nearly
double that of last year. The aggregate exports
from San Francisco for the first nine months of the
present year exceed those Of 1865 for the same
period by about Sc, 1877 $50 IS, which is almost
tirely due to our agricultural resources.
