NAVIGATION OF THE SAsrIAM.--We learn from
S. H. Claughton, Esq, Of Lebanon, who was on
board the steamer Caftiope on hsr late trip from
Jefferson to Lebanon, that the distance between
the two points is about twenty miles, and in that
distance there but two difficult points in the
way of the successful navigation of the river, and
they can be overcome ut but trifing expense
When the Ca{iiope arrived at Lebanon there were
probably one hundred and fifty passengers on
board who had got at different points as the
boat ascended the stream 1t is thought that
with small outlay of labor and money in remov-
ing distractions, the boat hereafter ascend the
river as far as Waterloo, some eight miles shove
Lebanon. 1t is the intention of the owners of the
Calfiope to procure engines of seventy y-ive
horse power, Immediately, when regular trips will
be inaugurated. A large and commodious ware
house will be built at Lebanon for the reception of
grain and other articles for shipment by the
steamer. The citizens in that portion of the
county are fully alive the benefits to be derived
from the success of the enterprise, and stand
ready lend all the aid and assistance required.

Man as a Barometer and Thermometer. Sci
ence has failed to invent any apparatus as sensi-
tive to atmospheric changes as the human frame.
1t is therefore of vital importance to guard it
against the effect of variations in the weather,
and experience has demon strated that DR.. Walk
er's Vinegar Bitters is the best medicine for this
purpose at present known. If taken as q proteo-
ton against the disturbing influence Of sudden
alterations of heat and cold, it will certainly pre-
vent the bowel complaint, levers, bilious disor-
ders, rheumatic affections, and throat diseases,
arising from these causes.

A RAILROAD IScIpESr.-As the down train on
Saturday approached the long bridge in French
Prairie, the engineer discovered three horses on
the track, between the bridge and his train. The
whistle used vigorously, and two of the ami
mails frightened from the track but the third
made for the bridge tail and head erect, and sue
ceeded in passing two spans when it fell par
TALLY through the ties, leaving portion of its
body and head above the rails. By this time the
train was so close upon the bridge that stoppage
was impo sible and to t.slow up would have
been almost certain to have thrown the whole
train from the bridge. Seeing the danger, quick
as thought the engineer put on all steam, seading
the train over the bridge at lightning speed; and
when the locomotive struck that horse the air
seemed to be filled WITH particles of hair, meat,
and bones-lt was a sudden conversion of live
horse into hash. It caused the loss of one horse,
but saved the train fre m general smashup, and
doubtless saved several valuable lives.

LAKE BIGLER.-The Enterprise
sommends our suggestion TO Won
Schmidt to take up the north branch
OF the South Fork of the American
river instead of tunneling the Sierra
Nevada mountains, but insists that
Lake Bigler is lake Tahoe. II this
he so, Won Schmidt cannot be litigated
out OF his diversion project, as he pro
poses to tap the waters of what is de-
tined by statute as Lake BiSler.
Walker or Owen Lakes might be
called Lake Tahoe; but Won Schmidt
does not propose to tap either of them.
