C>LIFoRNI> WI>Es.-Truly, it appears az

to render it independent of all foreign cOup-
tries. First, we are the food producers OF

out Of which the great majority OF the

supply wines and brandies of such II quality
and in such quantity that we care nothing
about the destruction of the vineyards in
France nor the deserted vines of the Rhine.
California. hereafter. will be the great
source from whence the people of this
public will draw their spiritual inspiration
and the boosted vintages of the Rhine, the
RhOne and the MOselle will be forgotten in
the delights of the Pacific Wine Company's
Old Mission, Tokay, Sherry, Port. Angelica,
and pure Eau-de-Nie. Truly, we are a
blessed people. and should be grateful.
Speaking of the Pacific Wine Company
minds us that an agency of this great cor
pnration has lately been established here,
at No. % Camp street. two doors above our
office, where all the popular wines produced
by their vineyards in FL Dorado county,
California. will be found pure and lnadul
teratrd. We would advise connoi,>curs of
good wines and brandy, who mnst be aware
of the impossibliiy OF getting pure Euro
pr;n wines at present, to :" and sample
these. A list will be found in another
column. to which we direct attention.
There ar. fair Indications that. in not

as IL science will be rs general as II
know ledge of reading at the pres

,lications that the mclod.ou, or parlor
organ. is maxim. its way among the
lovers OF good music. until i'll public
estimation it will rank along with the

can easily understand this. In the first

the price of Il good piano if it receives the
same care as a piano. it never wants tuning.
or gets out of order While it can produce
music of certain kinds that the piano is not
competent to perform, from its very nature
the organ will perform waltzes and light
music. Mr.. Blackmar has on hand the Estev.

Instruments, at low prices and favorable
terms.
