The streets of ncighborng little burgh of
Marysville are said to be about three feet deep

ScoundrelS, (beg pardon, we mean Council,) OF
Marysville, are seriously contemplating removal
OF the mnd from the principal streets OF their city,
They should do that their city to Oroville.
Surprising they will DO the former, Marysville is

that great city in the renoyatins business, with
hundreds Of drays loaded with mud and cholera
along their streets, to be dragged through mud to
the muddy Yuba:

Those youths to Golliness but slightly KNOWN
They thrash those mules and eNecrate their hearts;
Curse their eyes. aud tiercely d-n their own.
They say the angel who the record keeps

EDITOR Butte demonstrating few items
from the mountains might be of interest, will
commence as follows: On Tuesday last, took
ride to your beautiful little town for the first time
this winter an1 was surprised to see things look so
nice and clean. The roads. which | expected TO
find very muddy and disagreeable to travel, were
on the contrary nice and dry, with the exception
of very few places, and the streets of Oroville
dry and beautiful. On Wednesday morning, if you
will recolleet, there was heavy gust of wind in
the streets. Well, on my return home, found
that there had been one of the fiercest and most
destructive winds that had ever yiseted Concow.-
1t came from the northeast and with terrible effect
1t laid PROSTATE some Of the largest trees In the
woods; old sturdy oaks that have stood the blasts
of thousand years, have been twisted off down to
within ten feet oil the ground Never before, since
have been in the country, has there been such
destruction Of timber. All through the woods the
trees lay in every direction The fences are blown
down, even the bottom rail was lifted clear from
the foundation. The log barn, belonging to John
NJ Mullen built Of large logs and twenty feet high,
was moved several inches out of place, down about
six or seven feet from the top. Beehives were
tossed about like bubbles on the wave. Yesterday,
Friday, it rained all day, but to-day it put on
very different aspect; it has showed all day hard
and fast for the first time this winter. There is
now six or eight inches left on the ground lit mets

Golden Hair.

Mr.. Erasmus Wilson, in his new Journal
OF Cutaneous Medicines and Diseases of the
Skin, published in London, Is eloquent on
the 4 Dangers of Dying Hair" '.Art," he
tells us, ais progressive a few years back,
when the mania for altering the shade of
color of the hair first broke out, ladies
were conteng with washing their heads
with an alkaline solution, soda or potash,
until q considerable portion of the cOloring
mater was removed, and with it, of course,
much of che freshness and silky beauty Of
vs. sThis bleached hair, which approached
artificial or dead hair in its qualities, was
then polished with q little oil, and the pro-
cess was complete. But chemistry has
now enabled the artisans of hair to move a.
stage onwards; TO add dye in place of the
abstracted natural color, and to convert the
head into kind Of colored mop. Iteomes
,o mass thus: The head is washed with, an
alkaline solution, and dried near the fire;
this part Of the process occupies an
hour.o' The manipulation then brushes
through the hair dye, an acid solu-
ton Of varying strength, and the
