A great French Physician says: "More
than half the disease in the world comes from
neglect to fortify the system against changes
Of climate. weather and food. The great se-
cret Of health is to keep the condition of the
Stomach and Blood regular and uniform, SO
that changes from Heat 10 Cold from Dry tn
Damp, ETC. cannot upset the machinery of
the body, and breed disease" -,
Now, it is a fact, positive and well-known
that there is no such bulwark and assistant
for the Stomach as
PLANTATION BITTERS
This splendid Tonic is now used by al,
classes of people for every symptom of a
" Stomach out of order"
The secret of it is this: Plantation Bit.
ters are certain to correct the Juices of tho
Stomach, ,,set all its machinery at work and
enable it to resist and throw of the approach
ing danger. The tendency of the operations
OF Nature is always towards cure all she
needs is little assistance at the proper time.
How much more reasonable and sensible it is
to help her along with a gentle, yet power
full Tonic. than to deluge and weaken and
defeat her curative processes with poisonous
drugs and fiery mixtures, which only stupefy
and plant the seeds of disease and death.

PoLYf1cHAIc.-On Friday evening". q
week since. "Watts' Polytechnic" was ex-
hibited at the school house in this place to
quite large audience of ad;niring Juveniles.
The entertainment consisted of variety of
Photographic views. greatly magnifed. and
reflected upon canvass by means of mag
nesium light. As twenty per cent. OF the
proceeds was appropriated to the benefit of
the public school. our citizens took quite an
interest in the matter, and the school room
was we'll filed. The children. especially.
who were largely represented. enjoyed the
thing hugely. Their expressions of delight
were to US the best part of the entertain
ment. We have not learned how much the
school realized from the exhibition.
Nh. ELISHA GRANT, of our town, has laid
upon our table some of the most magnificent
apples-Fall pippins-that we ever saw.
They averaged thirteen inches in circumfer-
ence and pound in weight. Mr.. Grant in
forms us their stems are unable to support
their weight, and that many fall from the
tree before ripening. The fruit is grown in
his orchard near town. He will please ac-
cept our thanks.
WHY Is 1t that the Ancient and Honorable
Order is no more summoned to its halls :
Why languisheth the good causei Is the
spirit of benevolence deads Is there no suf-
fering to be ameilorated. no further necessity
for the exhibition of the blessed principles
of humanity: The N. G. II. should assem-
BILE the cohorts.
Our young friend, Mark Strouse, former
ly resident Of this place, paid us a visit
during the week. He is as jolly and hand

you to be Chief of Police Of Virginia City.

nominated, he will coucentste the strength of the
party in the District, and no difference who the
Democrats place against him. he will be elected.
No better selection could have been made for the
position, and none which would have added SO
much to the strength Of the ticket generally -
There is no sign of soreheadness there. but
frank, manly, cordial acceptance of the
situation. 1t is well, friend Charles Stock
ton Independent. '-f
"Soreheadism" is disease with which we
were never afflicted, Mr.. Independent. When
there are number of candidates before q
Convention for the same position. some Of
them must necessarily be defeated. If an
unsuccessful candidate and his friends can
not tuck their disappointment out Of sight,
pull off their coats, roll up their sleeves and
work with hearty good will for the success
Of the whole ticket, It is conclusive proof
that the party was fortunate in not selecting
such a man for its standard bearer that's

FIQHIS Society, which confines its bust
81 ness exclusively to assuring the lives
of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, labouring in the same
field, can offer. It's scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate TO provide for the
risk of life in the West Indies, and suffi-
Gent TO create large SURPRISES, out of
which ReverSionary Bonuses, averaging
% per cent per mum upon the amount
assured have been distributed among the
Members of the Society.
Its career, during a period of 81 years,
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part of
the world, are, when carefully selected,
almost as valuable as those inhabiting
Europe, and that they do not demand
such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.
The following abridged Table shows
the Premiums required TO assure 500,
for the whole term, upon a single life:-

Judge Gray, Romer and, Whiting have very
good ground; Bill Newton has one Ut the best
claims here--a hill claim, in which the dirt
pays from FIVE to ten cents to the pan from the
surface to the bed rock, about four feet. This
claim il the only hill diggings yet struck and
prospected, but believe claims on other hills
will be found which will pay equally we'll s
We want about fifty or sixty practical min

ia the Valley, and from four TO ten feet on the
