SATURDAY, 50: NOVEMBER l6, 1867.

The district burnt over by the recent con-
fagration is being rapidly rebuilt. The
cheerful sounds of the hammer and saw are
heard from early dawn to set of sun, and in
a few weeks, at the most, no traces OF the
fire will be left to remind US of its terrible
visitation. The buildings which were scorch-
ed and blackened by the flames but escaped
destruction, are being reprinted, and when
the work of renovation is completed and the
buildings in process of erection tnlsheu'
Mokelumne Hill will present better ap-
pearance than it has for years. Our cltlzehs
deserve all praise for the tireless energy ana
perseverance which they have exhibited.
This town has been burned three tlmes-once
almost entirely consumed-yet 1t has fiseh'
Phnnix-like, from its ashes. Burce's shoe
shop. which was but slightly damaged, has
been repaired. Schlund's jewelry store and
dwelling house, which were almost entirety
consumed, are being rebuilt as rapidly as
possible. Danielewitz's fre-proof store, has
been repaired. We understand he IS not
going to rebuild his dwelling house in the
rear. Peek & Co. are laying the foundation
for their stable. They have purchased the
old Theatre building, torn it down and will
use the lumber in the construction of the
stable. Hexter & Co. have established their
market in Sturges' old corner and will not
rebuild. Now by st. Paul the work Of re-
construction goes bravely on.

THANKSGIVING BALL.-The Jackson Guards
will celebrate the completion of their new
armory with grand military and civic ball,
on Thursday evening, November 2Sth. That
the party is to be given under the auspices
CT the Guards is a sufficient assurance that it
will be an elegant, recherche and successful
Affair." They are az fat in the minutest de-
tails Of rerpsichorcan matters, and however
brilliant their former dances may have been,
they viii be thrown into the shadow by the
one on the 2Sth. The Committee of Ar
fragments are sparing no efforts in their
preparations, and everything will be arranged
for the comfort, convenience and accommo-
dation of the guests. The best music in the
State-Messrs. Church Jones & Kay-has
been engaged for the occasion, and nothing
that is requisite for having first-rate pleas
ant end sociable time has been neglected.
The roads are now in a splendid condition,
the distance to Jackson is short, and, as the
day on which the ball is to be given should
be devoted to enjoyment, we advise the
dancing portion of this community to 90 to
Jackson. We shall be there, if possible and
we confidently expect to see Armory Hall,
one of the finest in the mountains, crowded
to repletion. We feel more thankful while
waltzing, than at any other time.
FRANKFoRT.-The name of "Cat Camp
has been changed to the gh-sounding and
more euphoneous cognomen of Frankfort
We like its feline appellation best, and can
see no material benefit to be derived from
the transition. However, as Shakespeare
says, whats in q name:" Cat Camp is
the name which the town has borne from the
day Of its inception-from the erection of the
first building. Under that suggestive title it
mas struggled along up to be quite place,
and attained considerable notoriety, both
mnerally and Cat Campically. Now that
the place Is rapidly increasing in size and
population, its citizens have become so aris-
tocratic that the simple name of "Cat Camp"
doesn't suit their squeamish notions of pro-
priety, and their ambitious ideas have been
gratitied by the substitution of Frankfort. &"
If they should, hereafter. be visited by every
rat in the country We shall consider it Just
retribution. We are informed by Mr.. Pat
terson. one of the Water Company's Super
intendents, that the ditch will be completed
to that point by the first of December. The
reports we receive in relation to the extent
and richness of the mines are fattering in the
extreme, and the arrival of the water is anx-
aously awaited. Buildings of every descrip-
ton are being erected, miners are focking in
from every direction, and Cat-Frankfort.

and permanent town.

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,

stages come crowded every night from all
directions. Our merchants are getting up
their Winter stock a of goods, our streets are
blocked up with huge ''prairie schooners,'
and resound with the crack of the whips and
"yup kits" of the teamsters. The quartz
excitement keeps everybody on tip-toe of
expectation, while those who were burnt
out are busily engaged in rebuilding. In

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER

This valuable preparation containing in
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 a tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering from debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, 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
fects that follow the use of spirits ofany kind.
1t is also an excellent rtmedy for females
who suffer from difficult mrhstruation. giving
almost immediate relief ID the spasms that so
frequently accompany thai period.
1t gives immediate relicft0 Nausea. caused
by riding in railroad c&r, OF by sea-sickness
or other causes.
1t is also valuable as an external applica-
ton for Gout, rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.

The GENITAL system Of buying and selling
grain by the 100 lbs was first recommend
ed by the Albany Board Of Trade, and has
been adopted in nearly all the large grain
marts of the country. The quotations in
the grain market reports are given with
this system in AL the principa! journals -
This at first will cause a little confusion,
but it will not be long before farmers as
well as grain dealers will appreciate the adj
vautages of the new method. For a long
time tie bushel of grain has been regulated
by weight and bought and sold by that
way The only difference in the new meth
cd is to quote all kinds of gram by the J =
90 lbs, instead of so, IS or 80, as the case
may be for different kinds of grain.
The following table shows the number of
pounds which constitute busheI as estab-
lished by law in the states named:
