with health and wealth to enjoy it. and thst they
may glide down the hill of life as smoothly as

To say that the weather here st present is fae.
would only half convey the idea intended by using
the expression. Il is really delightful. No high

The Local NEWSPAPER. The San Jose Msrert-
~ has the following sensible remarks on this sab
ject:
The appearance of the local newspaper is gen
orally regarded good indication OF the business
prosperity of the place where il is published The
individual who cuntempates removing his resi-.
dence 10 a town or city he has never seen would
derive far better idea of the locaity from onR
copy OF the town paper than from a dozen descrip.
tive letters from personal acquaintances or friends
He sees from clauce at its advertising columns
who and what are It's bu>inefs men: and from the
general style and tone of the paper from what sort
Of : community it derives lis patronage aad sup
port. From the local newspaper of the town al
most any >hrewd observer can form correct esti-
mate OF the place-whether 1t would be better
place to ernigrate from than to. Business men do
not always consider that the aid they render their
home press Is really good investment pecGnlariy
aside from tn qualification derived from It's per>a

business advantages OF their town. circulating at

This is undoubtedly correct, and has its weigh
with capitalists. who are seeking for business
points at which 10 locate. Such medium we have
endeavored TO make our paper. and it has been ma
ny times acknowledged fairly filling the require

foreign advertisements have been declined, and
while the State is filing Up with permanent pop
ulation have eudeavored to present the business
advantages Of 0roville and Batte county that this
locality might receive its merited proportion of
populstion. Nothing more. To the outside world
the local paper shows the amount and character Of
business d n its locality. Just now the REcoRp
would show hat oroville is frs;-rsie opening for
a diy goods house. And such is the fact. There
is no, respectable dry goods house in Oroville.
and the want Of one or more has long been seri-
