Caution to the Unfortunate

Beware of the San Francisco quacks and pre-
tenders who, with bogus sworn-to certificates dupe
the unwary. Some of the selfsycd doctors,
whose names are to be found in the daily and
weekly newspapers of San Francisco and other
places, are tradesmen and became too lazy to work
at their trades. Some tinsmths, shoemakers,
newspaper carriers, intelligence Office keepers, &c.
Look over the San Francisco directory and you
will not find their Medical Institutions in it. Look
at the Directory for 1862 and 1863 The only way
to avoid imposition is to make inquiry-it viii cost
you nothing, and may save you many regrets for,
advertising physicians in eight cases out of ten
are bogus, there is safety in trusting any of
them untilyou know who and what they are. DR..
Gbbon does not deceive people by exhibiting bogus
titles certificates, pretended patients letters. &c.
DR.. Gibbon will satisfy persons who may call at
his office Of his ability to treat diseases that he
proposes to cure.
Consultation FREE.
Correspondents will please inform DIR. Gibbon
that they read his advertisement in the Shasta

How TO SIT.-All consumptive people,
and all afflicted with spinal deformities, sit
habitually crooked, in one or more curves of
the body. There was time in all these
when the body had its natural erectness,
when there was the first departure on the
road to death. The make of our chairs.
especially that great barbarism, the un-
wieldy and disease engendering rocking
chair, favors these diseases, and undoubted-
ly in some instances. leads to bodily habits
which originate the ailments just named. to
say nothing of piles, fstula and the like
The painful or sore feeling which many are
troubled with necessarily for years. at the
extremity Of the backbone, is the result of
sitting in such a position that it rests upon
the seat of chair, at a point several inches
forward of the chair back. A physiological
chair. one which shall promote the health
and preserve the human form erect and
manly as our Maker made it, should have
the back straight, at right angles with the
seat, the seat itself not being over eight
inches deep. A chair of this kind will do
more towards correcting the lounging hab-
its Of youth than multitudes of parental lec
turings, for then if they are seated at all
they must sit erect, otherwise there is no
seat-hold. d.-HaWs Journal Of Health.

original method of curing the cuss of bad
habit which would soon spread through the
forecastle and make the ship uncomfortable
for officers and men.
One morning while the decks were being
washed down, heard Jack growing at the
amount of water which was used. | called
the fellow to me, and said in quiet tone
Jack. you don't like to work. Now. as
we are strong handed, and the weather is fine

The man looked astonshed, but went for
ward, and forgot him until the next morn
ing, when the steward told me that Jack
refused to eat anything, and swore he would
starve himself to death. | sent for the man
to come aft, and when he stood before me,
said

reply.

from his lips afterward, or from one of the

W. roc;ovea lac, woot With a

WE received last week, with a
request to publish, a very able ad-
dress in behalf of National Demo-
cratic Convention, TO be held in Louis
vile. Its length is too great for our
short columns; and apart from this,
an argument of that sort addressed
to people who are denied the right
of suffrage, seems rather to mock at
their weakness than appeal to their
strength for aid. Eleven States be-
ing thus DISTINGUISHED, it is, in our
opinion, unwise to get up Conven-
ton with view to participatin therin
by any State so situated. 1t is clear
that if the Radicals are to be defeat
ed, through the ballot-box, the dem
ocrats of the North must do il ; and
it appears to us that any interference
by the people of the South, will serve
to prejudice the cause and embarrass
the action of those who invoke such
interference.
Kentucky can appropriately go
into the Convention because it is not
one of the seeded States but none
south of it can because they have no
vote with which to aid their al lies,
and are too much hated by the nd n
ern people, generally, to exert any
salutary influence by means of moral
and intellectual weight in the scale
of political sentiment. The Conven:
ton, if composed of people yet NOM
inally free, may do much good, and
we would like to see the experiment
tried; but don't call it National
Convention nor extend invitations
beyond States that fancy themselves
under the protection of a Constitu-
ton and secure in the possession Of
constitutional liberty.
