The District Court, Hon. S. w. Brockway
presiding, will convene on Monday next, in
San Andreas. There are several important
cases to be tried. Among others, Jesus
Miranda, supposed to be the principal con-
cerned in the murder of B. r. c. Johnson,
about year since. Miranda was arrested
in Los Angeles, for some petty offence, and
while in durance was recognized by Harry
Ball, formerly of this town. Our officers
here were notified and Miranda brought
back by Deputy Sheriff Matthews. The
murder, whoever committed it, was unpro-
voked and the perpetrators should be brought
to justice.

QUARTZ lead was discovered by some
Mexicans short time since, near the juno
ton, which bids fair to prove one of the
richest in this vicinity. A shaft has been
sunk upon it to the depth of twenty-five or
thirty feet and lode three feet in width, all
of which prospects handsomely, disclosed.
Parties who have the means to develop it
thoroughly are trying to purchase it, and if
successful, we have no doubt but they will
become the possessors of one of the most
valuable lodges in the county. Its discovery
has created quite furore among quartz
miners in this vicinity,

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER

This valuable preparation containing in a
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 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 of any kind
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruaton. giving
almost immediate 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 sea-sickness
or other causes.
tits also valuable as an external applica-
ton for Govt, Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.
