EoOsntric,tias of Fashion.

The last issue of Erery Saturday re-
prints from the advance sheets of Lon
don Society" an article on the eccen-
tricities of female costume Some Gu
rious details are given of how rounded
figures are supplied to whom nature has
only granted angularity OF outline. 10
accomplish this end abdominal addenda
are supplied and supplemented with a
subdorsal protuberance to preserve the
balance of symmetry. Ladies objected
TO these attachments at first, but they
subsequently submitted to them. The
first of these attachments was styled a
pentre (stomach.) A lady calling on the
male dressmaker, who is common in
Paris, to try on gown, caused that
artist to raise his hands in horror. Mad
anne. you have no rentre I" The lady
being young and unsophisticated, would
not believe that her figure needed any
such artificial aids. But at last the artist
called out: " Apportez moi le Uentre de
Madame Ia Princess de--et de Ma
dame Ia Mdrquisss de-" Bring me
the stomachs of the Princess de and
ofthe Marquise de She submitted.
The contrivance was fixed on, the dress
was strained over it, and she walked
forth plump and comely dame, and the
rotundity of her form almost put her to
shame. 1t was then that she had to sit
down, stand up, walk here and there
before the dressmaker's critical eye, that
he might detect any flaw there happened
to be in the costume which he had pre-
pared for her So the story runs.

Essence of Jamaica Ginger

p6F 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 diseases of the
stomach and digestive organs
As a tonic it will be found invaluable to all
persons recovering from debility, whether pro-
duced by fever otherwise for whilst it imparts
to the system all the glow and vigor that can be
produced by wine brandy, it is entirely free
from the reactionary efforts that follow the
of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females who
suffer from difficult menstruation, giving almost
immediate relief to the spasms that so frequent
| ly accompany that period.
| 1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused by
riding in railroad car, or by sea-sickness, or
other causes. 1t is also valuable as an external
application for Gout, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, etc.

THE PRINTEns' CASpIpArE.-The Eureka Ty-
biographical Society, composed of all the printers
in San Francisco, who work for the Society s
prices, met yesterday and denounced the nomin-
alton of Mccarthy for State Printer-as he is
neither printer nor editor. They resolved, That
it must he evident to every voter that the posi-
ton of State Printer should be filled by printer.
To select lawyer or doctor or a merchant to
fill such position is simply political humbug.
The present nominee of the Union State Conven-
ton is not printer. On the contrary, he has
simply been engaged in conducting sort of
guerilla newspaper, and for years has employed
the worst printers at the meauest possible prices.
They recommended David Norris, late of Sacra-
mento, but now of San Francisco, as their can
didate. The printers who are not rats will not

STATE PRINTER. - The Bulletins Sacramento
correspondent, discussing the several nominees
in letter dated June 18th, said 80 The next
sensation after the Judgeshp was the State
Printing. There were three combinations in the
field. Owen, (the slate nominee,) editor of the
San Jose Mercury, II. S. Crocker, job printer in
Sacramento, and brother of railroad Crockers,
aud David Z. Gordon. of the TRINITY JOURNAL,
seemed to have the thing in the afternoon
but the other little lions combined against them
TO break the slate. Springer, of the Amador
Ledger, Smith of the Marysville Appeai and one
or two others were together; and Mccarthy of
the EZag was pnt forward anti-combination
candidate. lie originally thought to be the
Gorham preference, and the preference OF
the Boys, the sequel showed. Notwithstand-
ing the talk Of independence, however, it was
reported and believed among knowing ones that
O. VI. Clayes, of the Alta, and present State
Printer, is to have half the job, and that Gagan
of the Oakland .Ncws is to have share, for
which he will be indebted to Dwinelle."
