DoNr SToP.-It is 10 time now, SAYS the
Marysvile Appeal, when the Railroad question
is settled, and the immediate construction of
the road fixed fact, to relax our energies, lest
we lose the benefits of what we have done, and
float back on the ebb tide again. Black Rock,
Pueblo, Owyhee and Idaho will offer US, the
coming season. larger markets for our wares,
our flour, bacon, grain and manufactures. than
has ever before been within our reach. The
Appeal talks to the point-now is the time to
secure the desired results. Nature is propi.
tious, and promises our farmers larger yields
of their crops than ever before. while demand
for them is being created at our very doors BY
the discovery of rich mines close to our borders,
to say nothing of those farther off Let US but
once put the trade in motion via SusauvilIe,
and the channel fairly open, trade will flow in
it in spite of every opposition, as naturally as
water seeks its level.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

MEDICAL ADvIcE.-Dr. Wm. X. Doherty's Med
ical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine qua
non to the welfare Of our State and health of our
citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputation al
though it may excite surprise, is but the signal of
skill, and follows as the natural effect of such
cause. We are personally acquainted with gentle
men who had suffered for years under chronic dis
ease, and who had taken advantage of every
available means that promised relief. but without
success. until they called upon DR.. Doherty, who.
in an Incredibly short space of time, has given
them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to announce
this fact because the Doctor is gentleman who
seeks not by defamation of Others to establish his
reputation, or to rear the superstructure of his
own upon the rule of another's fame. The Doctor
conducts his Institute in such manner that must
be gratifying to all his patients. He examines
advises and recommends without charge, and the
patient after hearing his terms for treatment. can
accept or reject at pleasure. In no case does the
Doctor make q charge unless be effects cure.
This he is able to do, because he feels the conf
dence which long experience has given, and no
doubt the consolation which appertains to that
confidence. Persons afflicted with either acute or
tor; at all events. it do no HARM as for consul
tation he asks fee; nor does he insist on ebedi
ence to his advice unless the patient places himself
under his care. His Offices are on Sacramento
street. opposite the Pacific Mail Steamship Office.
