GENERAL KuPArRIcK.-"Roland, Boston
correspondent of the Sacramento Union, under
date of Dec. 4th, writes as follows:
Major General Kilpatrick. Minister to Chile
who lately made so successful raid among the
Copperheads Of New Jersey, was in town, last
week, and delivered lecture on the Future
Party of the Country" His audience embraced
The most distinguished people of the city, and
Governor Andrew introduced him. The Cen
eral has not a martial uien-a slight man, with
a rather effeminate face. adorned with mutton

manner. OF JEFF. Davis. be said: There is
one head that must fall, because il was the

AN IxAGIsArIvE CoRREsPoSDESr.-Ths
Sacramento correspondent of the MarysriIlt
Appeal who, the editor says, lis an old Chico
lite'-probably one of the "Colonels" OF
"Honorables s"-under date Of January 10th
says:
"The question of manufacturing new counties
Is becoming one of considerable moment. Ii
is said that both Sonoma and BuNe expect 10
get split on this rock, during the Winter. Iu
| The Butte case, the desire for divorce is one
| of financial and commercial nature. The sew
eral townships about Chico, and deriving
supplies from it, pay ibree-ffths of the taxes
OF the county, and Chico merchants sell three
dollars worth Of goods where those Of Oroyile
sell one. Added to all this, Chico has become
the southern terminus of the great Overland
Wagon Road to the Territory OF Idaho; SO it
is very prnperly fitted for county seat"
The joke perpetrated upon the metropolis
of Chico" by the merry correspondent Of the
Appeal. in the above decidedly humorous
paragraph, is SO apparent that We need not
point it out. The several townships about
Chico" which derive supplies from it, and
pay three ffihs of the taxes of the county
the Chico merchants" who "sell three dollars
worth of goods where those of Oroyille sell
one"-these are assertions which, from their
frequent repetition by Chicoites, they may at
last have deluded themselves into believing !;
but they only provoke the mirth of rational
and intelligent people outside Of 'the metropo
lis" The farmers OF Bate Greek, Dayton,
Rock Creek, Pine Creek, and Rio Seco, who
have always heretofore derived their supplies
from Oroville, will hardly .patrouize "the me
tropolis' at this late day, Oh account of such
wholesale assertions as those above quoted.
As to the several townships about Chico" in
favor of division, We never heard of them.
They must consist of Subdivisions made by
the "dividers" by running imaginary lines
through Chico township, Or following the lines
Of the big Spanish grants in that township,
thereby constituting each ''aristocratic" ranch
township in the new county. Notwithstand
and Idaho" has lis southern terminus at Chico,
much of the freight hauled over it has been
shipped from Oroville; not to say anything
about the vast amount of supplies which have
been transported across the mountains from
Orovle by the great free road from Oroville
to Idaho Territory, which is a much better
natural road than the Chico toll road, as
every one knows who has Travelled both. So
much for the Sacramento correspondents
"merry joke" at the expense of Chico.

MARX TWAIN, writing TO the Virginia Eu-
terprse, says the entire Fourteenth Regiment
tregulars) is destined for Arizona, but they
have to send the boys forward in small detach-
ments because they go overland, and water is
scarce-f they went iD a bodg, there would not
be enough Of the article to 60 around. This is
the military explanation, but it looks weak to
me- These Fourteeners do not care any thing
about water. All they want is lightning to
drink and something to steal. After they pass
over the ground between here and Arizona, the
country can never be mapped again with any
degree of accuracy, because they will steal the
very parallels of latitude as they 60 along, and
carry them off with them.

SPECIAL NOTICES.

MEDICAL ADvICE.-Dr. Wm. X. Dohertys Med
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 a
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 a 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 charge unless he effects cure.
This he is able to do, hecause 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
chronic diseases, would do well to consult the Doe
tor at all events it can DO no harm as for consul
tation he asks no fee; nor does he insist obedi-
to his ADVICE unless the patient places himself
under his care. His offices are on Sacramento
street, opposite the Pacific Mail Steamship Office

that, upon the arrival of the Susanviile aud
Chico stage at The latter place, lately, it was
attached by johnson Wetherbee. Mr..
Banning, who waited at Chico some time for
10 opportunity to go TO Susanvile, at length
determined on account of the uncertainty
OF the Chico stage running to Susanyie during
the remainder of the Winter to go by the
regular United States Mail Stage, which leaves
Oroyille for Susanvie every Sunday and
Thursday morning. 1t would seem that carry

ROAD BELOW THE Snow LINE.-It is well
known that there exists a great natural route
across the Sierra Nevada mountains from
Orovilie, and traversng tie immensely rich
mineral aud agricultural regions of Plumas
county, to connect with the old Humboldt and
Idaho road at some point in Lassen county.
This route is afforded by the great valley OF the
Feather river, and is incomparably superior to
the road from Chico up the rocky and tortuous
canyon of Butte creek to the summit and down
the almost impossible gorges and precipices
washed in the snowy mountain Businesses by
Butt creek on the east side. The great advan
tage of this road up Feather river is that it
will be entirely below the deep snow line, and
may be Travelled at all seasons. The Increasing
trade of Oroville in that direction renders this
road a necessity, and it will be opened at an
early day. This is far superior 10 any other
route for railroad from California 10 Idaho.

unadulterated drugs, says Medicus, Of

ease"
In one sense, both Of these learned
pundits were the Veriest charlatans.
| They knew there was no place to rest
| their lever on, either to move the
world or cure disease. Mechanism
was in a backward state, and the med
| zeal profession was but another name
for sOrcery, and all The adjunct Of
magic filters and charms of the-''evil
eve" DC.
But these latter days have borne
unto us something more than even
superstition and its crew ever dreamt
of in their maddest philosophy, In
these days OF practical science, what
was theory of yesterday is fact today,
and all the old time notions become
as bubbles in the sun, and burst and
/ break with every breath we draw.
/ Let Archimedes shoulder his lever
and we will find resting place for it
