The Western end of the
Great National RaiItUay
Across the Continent.
Their line will extend from Sacramento, Cal
ifornia, across the Sierra Nevadas to the Cali
tOrnia State line, traverSing the richest and
most pOpIliOus section of California
and thence through the great mining re-
giOnS of the Territories, to the vicinity
of Salt Lake City.
1t forms the sole Western link of the
only route to the Pacific which is adopted by
Congress and aided by the issue OF
United States Bonds. sESr.l
Their road is already completed, equipped
and running Tor So miles from Sacramento to
within II miles of the summit of the Sierras
and a large amount of work of Grading Tunnel
ling, &C., beyond that point has been accom-
plished. 2r m Of
The First Mortgage Bonds of this
Company afford unusual inducements OF Safe
ty and Profit to investors, for the following
among other reasons, viz
First. The rates OF interest is Six per cent III
Gold, payable semi-annually in tile City of New
Second. The Principal is payable nm Gold at
maturity.
Third. The cost of the Bonds, Ninety-Five per
cent. and accrued interest, is Ten per cent. less
than that OF the cheapest six per cent. Gold Bear
ing Bonds OF the government.
Fourth. The United States Government pro-
vides nearly half the amount necessary Ia
build the eutirc rOad, and looks mainly
10 a small percentage ON the future traffic
for repayment.
FIFTH. Owing to this liberal provision, accompanied
with EXTENSIVE GRANTS OF PUBLIC
LANDS, by which the Government fosters this
great national enterprise, its success is render
ed certain, and its financial stability is
altogether independent of the contingent
cies which attend ordinary railroad en-
terpfises.
Scth. The Security of its FIRST MORTGAGE
BONDS is therefore AMPLE, and their character
for safety and reliability is equaled only by that
OF the obligations of the GOVERNMENT ITSELF.
SeUentE The net earnings OF the completed por-
tion8re already largely i'm excess of the
in fest obligations which the cOnspa ny
WI incur ON twice the distance, and are
stoIaily increasing, rendering the uninierrupa-
edpayment Of the Interest absolutely
cS4fain.
Eig6y. At the present rate of Gold they pay near
ly ~ per cent. per amman, on the amount in
vested.
The Bonds are issued in denominations OF 81 900

THE CHINGAR0RA
ANTI-NERVOUS
TOBACCO.

The CHINGARoRA TOBACCO ows from the
rich soil of the ORIENT" and Is possessed of Pc
eularly delicious flavor entirely unknown the
popularity has sprung from the fact of the entire abb
ssnce Of that deadly poison Ncotin which perneates
every other tobacco, and which is the one and sole
cause Of the distressing nervous Diseases dyspepsia
&c., which most invariably sooner later, follow
the Indulgence OF the pipe and cigar. AT the recent
anayzation OF tobacco from all parts OF the world
at the Academy Of Sciences, in Paris the renowned
Chemist, NJ. LAMoUREAUX, declared that while Eu-
ropean and American tobacco contained fdly eight
per cent, and the purest Havana tobacco from two
to five per cent. of Ncotin, the CHlNGARoRA did
not contain discoverable particle of that deadly
poison, drop OF which, extracted, will destroy life.
Our Agent at BOMBAY has shipped us large guam
titles of the CHJNGAROIiA during the past two
years, and although have been pressed TO supply
the demand for this delicious luxury to the veteran
smoker, yet prepared to offer it in unlim-
tied quantities, at price much lower than some
American toDaeco of a far inferior quality. 81
A connoisseur has but to smoke the American to-
bacco and segars, which are invariably chemically
favored, to be disguised with the medicinal taste
which leaves nauseous, unhealthy coating in the
mouth, and in time seldom fails to shatter the ner-
vous SYSTEM
The natives OF the "ORIENT" smoke the CHIN
GARORA from morn till night, from youth to age,
and are happily unconscious of the wild, distressing
fire which courses through the veins of the inhaler Of
the fumes of tobacco containing Nicotia.
We invite every lover of the weed to try the CHI IN
GARoRA, and guarantee unprecedented pleasure in
its delicious flavor. l. -rs .. r.r

The reporter of the Cincinnati Gazette, at
the prize fight, speaks of the appearance of
the combatants, before beginning their bru-
tai display, as follows:
"While dressed, McCoole had appeared to
be much the larger of the two, and when
stripped, his colossal proportions seemed to
e]ectrify the crowd. His arms and fists
looked like sledge hammers. His breast
was covered with heavy, close, black hair,
and altogether he appeared perfect giant.
Jones eyed him continuously, and really
seemed frightened. When the articles were
signed, he weighed 24O pounds, and entered
the ring at 1874.
Jones, although inferior in size and bulk,
appeared to be in much the best condition
His skin was OF a pure white, and, to use
the words of his renowned trainer, there was
not an ounce of surplus flesh on his body.
His arms were long and sinewy, but were
not as large as we had been led TO believe
While seated on his chair, McCoole eyed
him cautiously, and apparently with good
deal of anxiety"

PoLICE.-Wm. Robinson, stranger,
came in town last night, and was loafng
about with valise. Policeman McConchie
advised him to get some place to stop, but
he thought he could take care of himself.
He was afterwards found drunk, and living
on the sidewalk, and locked up in Jail by
NcConchie and Feeley. This morning Mag
istrate Connolly fined him So and costs,
which he paid.
Patrick Shine was found drunk, and two
or three times was advised by McConchie to
go home, but failed to do so. He contin-
ued to take more whisky on board, and was
finally found by McConchie and Feeley in
q goose pond, and taken to jail Fined 50
and costs.
George Blake and Albert Whitsel, stran.
gers, were found asleep in freight car at
the C. R. l. & P, r. R. depot, pretty
tight and part of a bottle of whisky on hand.
They were locked up in Jail, and this morn

The camp meeting that was commenced
near this place, the 22d ult., closed on the
18th ult. The meeting was largely attended,
especially on the Sabbath, on which day
there was at least 1000 people present. A
large number of bad characters were in at
tendance, and scenes were enacted very
near, and upon the ground, that would have
disgraced general muster-day, and were
especially painful, when the sacred charac-
ter of the day, and the good purposes of the
meeting were considered. A perfect pande-
monium cireled round a whiskey den in the
black jack on the south side of Edwards
river. Several fights occurred. Drunken
ness, profanity, and obscenity were fire.
quentIy forced upon the eye and ear, how
ever pious or ehaste. These disagreeable
features of camp meeting are unnecessary
evils. If camp meetings are essential for
the spread of christianity, the proper au-
thorities should provide a sufficient police to
preserve the peace and sanctity of those
who thus gather in the groves to worship.
No revival was awakened at this meeting.
Mercer Co. Press
Of course not. And it is very rare that
one ever is awakened at any camp or out
door meeting In fact we believe that all
such meetings are productive of positive in
jury to the cause of religion.
