The county scat has been removed to San
Andreas. Byrnes lifted" it. Some people
may think that the consequences will be dis
astrous to Mokelunne Hill. and that our
merchants will not dare to purchase large
stocks of goods this Fall. All who have any
such ideas as that should call at Mrs. Adams
Dry Goods Emporium, on Main street, op-
posite Mrs. McFadden's. and they viii! soon
be convinced to the contrary. Mrs. Adams
is now receiving her Fall and Winter goods
which were selected by herself, and she now
has one of the finest and most complete as
sortments of ladies' and children's goods ever
opened in Mokelumne Hill, which she offers
for sale at prices which defy competition
Read this: calieoes yards for 81; delaines
20 to % cents per yard; French merinos 5 to
I bits per yard; cotton cloth 90 to % cents
per yard. But we can't begin to mention
the articles. Read her advertisement in an
other column. Call at the store and convince
yourself; don't be bashful.

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER


This valuable preparation containing in
highly concentrated form all the properties
of the Jamaica Ginger. has become one of the
most popular domestic remedies for all dis
eases of the stomach and digestive organs.
As tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering from debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst
it imparts to the system all the glow and
vigor that can be produced by wine or BRAN
dy, it is entirely free from the reactionary ef
fects that follow the use of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruaton. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period. '"
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused
by riding in railroad car. or by sea-sickness
OF other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
tion for Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

Correspondence.

EDITOR CHRONICLE In an article refer
ring to the late murder of johnson, which
appeared in your paper of September 29th'
you seem to labor under a misapprehenslon
of facts, and use language which is caleulat-
ed to reflect upon the honor and honesty of
very respectable class Of California resi-
dents. Yon say:
The amount of money secured by the mur-
derers was insignificant, and it is the opinion
of those best informed on the subject, that
robbery was not the only incentive which
caused the commission of the murder. Mr..
johnson had recently obtained divorce from
his wife, who was a Spanish woman, and
considerable hard feelings had been engen-
-dered between him and some of her country
men in consequence. .-
Now, Mr.. Johnson's wife is not Spanish
woman. She may be descendant of the
early Spanish settlers of Mexico, as are most
of the present inhabitants of that country,
but it has been SO long since her ancestors
emigrated from Spain that she retains none
of the rational characterist cs of the Span
lard. As to the hard feelings, 1 most posi-
lively deny that any ever existed between my
countrymen and Mr.. johnson on account of
his family troubles. 1t is true that a sister
of Mr.. Johnson's wife is married to a Span
lard, Don Manuel Munoa. and when the
trouble occurred in Mr.. Johnson's family he
gave to his sister-in-law that protection
which every gallant man would accord to a
woman under like circumstances-a home
and shelter-but all who are in the least ac-
quainted with Don Manuel Munoa know him
to be man of too much honor to resort to
such base means to rid himself of an
enemy. What incentive the murderers had
for the commission of the horrible deed We
have no right to judge until the matter is le-
sally investigated before a proper tribunal
But judging from the character of the mur-
derers it is fair to presume that one half the
booty obtained from Mr.. johnson would be
sufficient 10 incite them TO murder at any
time. This matter would have been noticed
at an earlier date, but it was not until few
days since that it was brought to the notice
of your correspondent. A SPANGARD.

A SURPRISE PARTY IN THT FOURTH WARD,
Some months ago, Gov. Fcnton, not having the
fosr of anybody, North or South, before lis eyes,
without regard TO the Mosaic dispensation in con-
tradstinction to party precedonts, appointed man
as Notary Public in the Fourth Ward entirely on
his merits. The man, whose name is Wm. i.
Powell, and whose color is unconstitutional, is
well .oducatod, of unblolaished character, well
known to and esteemed by tho public of that
Ward, Notwithstanding his complexion, and
the Governor gave him his commission in
consideration of tho former qualities end with
out allowing that tho latter was disqualifica-
ton. The result has justified his Judgment. Mr..
Powell has as much business es ho wants to do Ill
the notarial line nobody yet having refused to take
the oath administered to him fron black mans
lips, or declined to accept the notarial seal from
black mans hand. Yes, there was one single In
stance. Ono applicant stared in astonlshment
when brought face 10 face with tho black notary,
and finding, like the swearing deacon when his
load of hay upset, that there vas no oath sufficient
for the occasion, simply turned and ran away as
though another-the provsrbial black one-was
after him. He-wo mean the frightened man-has
never been seen in the Ward since.
Mr. Powelj's home is in Doyer-st., and at the
corner of Dover ard Yutcr ere the rooms Of a
Temperance Society. Last evening four young
men called on him, AID saying that the Rooms,
whore they wanted t. so to tako the Plecge, were
