The Prospect for the Future.

To those given to croaking the pros
poets OF our camp are little gloomy
D But just appreciation of the obstacles
which have brought about our present
embarrassment, will dispel all such idle
fancles. That our mines are rich, none
can deny; but it is the expensive man
ner of working them, which monopolizes
the yield, added to which nearly one
half of the mineral is allowed toget away
with the tailings. Scarcely mine has
been attempted to be worked, that by pros
posting tests, did not promise rich re-
turn, yet when worked in the mill, the
mineral could not be savcd. Why is thisY
Are the amalgamators unskillful, or the
LII !. defective? We think both ques-
tions should receive an affirmative. We
believe there is not mine that has been
worked in this camp which, with the ore
properly assorted, will not yield from for
ty to sixty dollars per ton an amount
amply remuner alive. But the uniyer-
sal custom of hauling and working gran
lite, talck &c with the ore, is not profit.

The Storm.

AS We write, the mournful wall of thu
wind as it sweeps down the mountain, ant
whirls the snow in blending eddies abou
our Office, sends chill to our heart. Tht
uproar of the elements, spreads a gloon
over the mind. Nature seems Of wa,
with herself. God pity the posr tssv.
eler, who tonight is on the mountain in
this storm. If husband, never more
shall he greet home, wife or kindred. II
a father, the clustering tendrils of his
love for that bright-eyed, fair-haired boy,
who tonight nestles in his mothers arms
in distant home, will be severed in
death. His wall for succor could never
reach human ears, but alone, must he look
to God. No ear but His could hear a
call for help, no hand but His save,
on such night as this, in our hills. Per-
haps the desire to get tidings from home,
may'tempt some lone resident of a cabin
far out in the hills to reach the Post OF.
flee. Ifso, God protect the little orphans,
who, wondering that father tarries so
long, may never know show death came
to him at last" You who live where
there is sunshine now, and are surround
ed by the comforts of life, know little of
what it is to be shut out from the world,
"mid SHOWS and winter" to toll for wife
and little ones, through these long, cold,
dreary days. The hand is hard with
toiling, the brow wrnkled and weather
beaten, the hair long, matted and silver

for her, he has promised to

OFFICIAL ORGAN.-We have been of.
icially notified by the proper authori-
les at Washington that the President
las indicated the DAILY HERALD as the
medium for the publication of all official
notices in this department. This is
distinction which we had not sought nor
loped to realize. it is nevertheless ac-
eptable in the way of business, and an
ther evidence of the Presidents dis.

Mustang Lininent.

Have you hurt child or a lame horse? Use the
Mexican Mustang Liniment
For cuts, sprains, burns, swellings and caked
breasts, the Mexican Mustang Liniment is a certain
cure.
Forrheumatism, neuralgia, stiff joints, stings and
bites, there is nothing like the Mexican Mustang
Linment.
For spawned horses, the poll-evil, ring bone and
sweeny, the Mexican Mustang Liniment never
fails.
For wind gall, scratches, big head and splint the
Mexican Mustang Liniment is worth its weight in
gold.
Cuts, bruises, sprains and swellings are so com
mon and certain to occur in every family, that a
bottle OF this Linimeat is the best investment that
can be made.
1t is more certain than the doctor-it saves time
in sending for the doctor-it is cheaper than the
doctor. and should never be dispensed with
'In lifting the kettle from the fire, it tipped over
and scalded my hands terribly. The
Mustang Liniment extracted the pain, caused the
sore to heal rapidly, and left very little scar.

A FATHER AND Two CHILDREN DROWNED
1t is our painful duty to record the particu
lars of one of those terrible accidents which
now and then occur. as it were, to shock the
community. Yesterday morning David
McAdoo, a farmer residing ten or twelve
miles from YGba City, on the Cache Greek
road, left home, with double team, taking
with him two boys between the ages of three
and six years. The road over which Mr.
McAdoo had to travel was more or less over
flowed and small pounds or lakes. quite deep
are to be passed on the same, with 70 land
marks TO distinguish roads from lakes. At
abeut niue ocock yesterday morning. while
driving along a little TO the east of the Ten
Mile House, near Rennie's ranch Mr..
McAdoo drove off into one of these ponds.
where himself. the two bows and the horses
were drowned. The cry of the diseased was
heard by james Anderson, neighbor, Who
FASTENED to the fatal spot but reached it too
late to save either of the drowning party.
All were dead, and the ears of one of the
horses floating above the water was the only
guide to where the bodies lay. They were
all soon taken out-the father and e. der boy
from deep water, and the Youngest from
from shallow water, about knee-deep, on the
border of the lake. 1t is believed that the
father threw the child from the wagon before
it sank, and that he lost his own life in en-
deavoring to save the other boy. Tie de-
ceased was about SO years of age, and leaves
wife and one child and many friends to
mourn his untimely death The funeral will
take place at one o'clock to-day, at tho bury

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER.

YNHIS valuable PREPARATION containing in
l. highly concentrated form all the properties of
the Jamaica Ginger, has become one of the most
popular domestic remedies for all diseases Of the
stomach and digestive organs.
As tonic it will be found invaluable to all per-
sons recovering from debility, whether produced by
fever or otherwise for whilst it imparts to the sys-
TEN all the glow and vgor that can be produced by
wine or brandy. it is entirely free from the reac-
tionary effects that follow the use of spirits Of anv
kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females who
suffer from difficult menstruation giving almost i'm
mediate relief to the spasms that so frequently
accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding In a railroad car, or by sickness, or
other causes.
1t is also valuable external application fo1
Gout, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.
