Medical C:arsI.-Success is said to be
the criterion of merit. If this is So DR.. Do
herty is not the exception to the rule. OF
the many physicians who advertise to cure
the particular branches to which he has de-
voted his particular study, none has attained
that wondrous and general practice which
daily attend at his Office. The great Ricord
of Paris, specially devoted his attention to
the particular branch of medicine denomina-
ted Specific and Chronic. Dr. Doherty has
determined to do the same. Read his adver-
tisement in another column and the sworn

MEETING.-On Saturday last meeting of
the citizens of Mokelumne Hill and vicinity
was held at Sanger Halle, for the purpose of
taking steps to prevent the stealing of cattle
which has been INDUCED in to great extent
during the Winter. Mr.. A. r. Young, was
elected chairman, and C. II. Garland, Sec
retary. The objects of the meeting were
briefly stated by Mr.. Doak, and the necessity
for some action being taken in the matter
rendered apparent to all. As the day was a
rainy one, however but few stock owners
from a distance were in attendance, and
those present did not wish to proceed to ex-
treme measures without a more open ex-
preston of public opinion in its favor.
Upon motion, the meeting adjourned until
Saturday, April 2Oth at 10 o'clock A. NJ,
when it is to be hoped that the citizens of
this vicinity will take interest enough in the
protection of their property to attend and
take part in the proceedings. The stock

DANCING ScHooL.-On Wednesday even
ing last, notwithstanding the fact that the
wind blew perfect gale, and the rain de-
scended in torrents. large company of ladies
and gentlemen assembled in Leger's Hall to
attend the soiree given by Messrs. Church x
Jones at the completion of their term OF
dancing school. The unpleasantness OF the
weather did not seem to dampen the spirits
of the dancers in the least. for all appeared
to enjoy themselves hugely, aud mirth, So
ciability, good humor and fun, prevailed
among the merry-makers. A piano, skill
fully manipulated by Mr.. Alfred Church,
added its melodious notes to the volume of
good music usually furnished on such occa-
sions, and lent an additional charm to the
festivities of the scene. At twelve o'clock,
all descended to the supper room and dis
cussed the merits of a substantial lunch, af-
ter which, refreshed and invigorated, they
returned to the ball room to mingle once
more in the giddy mazes of the dance. At an
early hour in the morning the satiated vota-
ries of Terpsichore took their departure for
their homes, after having spent an evening of
unalloyed happiness. Messrs. Church &
Jones deserve much credit, as well as the
thanks of their pupils, for the manner in
which they have conducted their school in
this place. Urbane and courteous in their
demeanor, pleasant and agreeable in their
manners, persistent in their endeavors to
teach and improve their pupils in the elegant
accomplishment of dancing, they have spared
no pains and left no means untried to render
their term of dancing school acceptable to
all, and their efforts have been crowned with
the most complete success.

DR.. G. NJ. BOURNE Dear Sir 1t is with
pleasure and satisfaction that now let you
know of my good health. Looking back
upon what | have passed through, it seems as
! if had been lifted from the grave, and I
think it my duty to acknowledge to you and
the world the benefit | derived from water
treatment as administered by you in your
celebrated baths, 1t was in August 1864,
when disease developed itself with severe
cough | then took medicines. getting worse
with chilIs. fevers, loss of strength, and was
pronounced consumptive. This set me to
thinking, ana finally determined to leave
my business and go 20 the Sandwich Islands,
having been Informed that | could not be
cured here. | went to San Francisco, and
while waiting for ship, called upon DR..
Bonrne, who stated that trip to the Islands
would probably result disastrOusy. was who'll
ly unnecessary. as | could be speedily cured
at his establishment. placed myself under
his treatment, and in one week was so much
improved that | could risk returning home
and do my duty as Engineer OH the Central
Pacific Railroad. The Doctor objected, but
thought knew better, and returned to duty.
In about two weeks my cough returned. and
kept getting worse. and contrary to DR..
Bourne's injunction never to take medicine
again; CoLHintIIcu tHdt ioily anu SOOH was 30
completely run down that | could scarcely
walk so, as last resort, concluded to try
the Water Cure once more. | went to San
Francisco-few of my friends expecting me
to return. In fact, | thought my return doubt
full On arriving at DR.. Bourne's establish

get into the bath without assistance, but in
few days | began to recover myself again

felt a % wiser and better man," without the
aid of medicine | have now been at work
several weeks. and find that am gaining
every day, and at present bid fair to be stout
er than ever before. Persons visiting the
Doctors establishment find it just what it
should be, both in the Ladies' and Gentle
mems Departments, and | cannot say too
much in praise of the Doctors kind attention
to his patients.
This letter l write for the benefit of all the
afflicted, to be used as the Doctor decides,
and should it be the means of directing any
to his care and treatment who (as they assur-
edly will, find relief, L will be paid for my
trouble. JAMES CAMPBELL,

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER

This valuable preparation containing in a
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 herwise 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 eff
tects that follow the use of spirits Of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruation. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period.
1t gives immediate reliefto Nausea, caused
by riding in railroad car. or by sea-sickness
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
ton for Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

DELICIoUs.-We are under a large loa6 of
obligations to oar epicurean West Point
friend P. H. Kean, Esq, for mess of as fine
brook trout as ever graced the hook of that
renowned piscatorial disciple. Izaak Walton.
Some things are good, others are better, but
we must confess that fresh trout suits our
ideas of superlative goodness little better
than anything else in the eating line. How
delicious they are; just the thought makes
our mouth water. We always had weak
ness for trout. From the time when boy
we angled for them in the crystal waters of
the brook which glided musically along
through the green fields and shady dells of
our early home, up to the present, they have
been the especial object of our admiration.
All! the sports and joys of those happy days
of childhood can never return, but their re-
collection fingers like a pleasant dream in
our memory-and so does the taste of the
trout sent us by Kean.
