There is a marked increase in the manifesto
ion OF the divine spirit TO the hearts Of the

Rev. Mr.. Harlow, of the Providence Confer
ence. The afternoon sermon was by the
Rev. l.. +. Dunn, of New Jersey, and the
evening sermon by Rev. Mr.. Winsluw, Con-

These sermons were able, appropriate, and
powerful. 1t is one of the pleasing features

many ministers and members of tine Evan

Mexican Mustang Liniment,
FOR MAN AND BEAST.

Pre- badly few articles have
ever had so extensive a Sale,
while none have been more uni
versally benifcial than the cele-
brated Mexican Mustang Lini-
ment. Children, Adults, Horses,
and Domestic Animals, are al
ways liable to accident, and it is
safe TO say, that no family can
pass a single season without some
kind of an emollient being nee
essary. 1t becomes "a matter of
importance then to secure the
best.
Over three hundred livery stables in the city
of New York al me are using the Mexican Mus
tang Liniment, in all of which it gives unusual
satisfaction.
CAUTION.-The genu ne is wrapped in a fine
Steel Plate engraving with sc. W. Westbrook,

HEARTBURN.--Why the sensation ot

HEARTBURN.--Why the sensation occa-
stoned by the presence of an acrid acid in
the stomach should be called heartburn it
is difficult to say, as the distress is not
even in the immdiate vicinity of he heart
Common parlance, however, has sanctioned
the misno mer, and like many other errone-
Gus terms in general use, it is a fixture in
our language. Bi carbonate of soda is
usually given for heartburn; but it merely
neutralizes the acidity for the time being,
and does not prevent speedy return of the
complaint In fact, all the alkaline solu-
tions given to relieve the burning, serve to
weaken the stomach and thereby aggravate
the cause of the ailment, viz.--indigestion.
What is needed in such cases is something
which, by toning and invigorating the
gastric membrane and thus promoting a
free flow of the secretion which dissolves
the food, accelerates the work of digestion
and assimilation. Avoid nostrums and
consult physician.

Julian while upholding the interests of
labor has always been consistent Republi-
can, and will not lend himself to the
scheme of destroying the party he has aided
so much to build up He has lately writ
ten letter denying any connection with
the present movements to bring him out as
a Presidential candidate, and the Republi-
cans Of Indiana propose to put him on their
State ticket for Congressman at large, which
would of course defeat the Democratic
scheme to capture him.

The San Joaquin Republican gets off the
following good thing: "There is probably
no greater lie nor one more often repeated
than is embodied in the words '.Tl e People

Senate and Assembly do enact as follows" !"
which are always found at the head of a
bill or an Act. In nineteen of every twenty
instances the people do nothing of the
kind, and if they had an opportunity would
promptly repudiate the bill at the time as
they generally do its author at the next
election"

This wonderful vegetable re-
storative is the sheetanchor of
the feeble and debilitated. As a
tonic and cordial for the aged and
languld it has no equal among
stomachics As a remedy for the
nervous weakness to which wo-
men are especially subject, it is
superseding every othet stimu-
liant In all climates, tropical,
temperate or frigid, it acts as a
specific in every species of disor-
der which undermines the bodily
strength and breaks down the
animal spirits.

AN HONEST CUSTOMER.-An anecdote
worth laughing over is told of man who
had an iufrmity as well as an appetite for
fish lie was anxious to keep up his char
acter for honesty, even while making bill
with his merchant, as the story goes, and
when his blck was turned the bouest buy
er slipped Goldfish up under his coat tail
BIT the garment was too short to cover the
theft, and the merchant perceived it.
"Now," said the customer, anxious to i'm
prove all the opportunities to call attention
to his virtues, "Mr Merchant, | have
traded with you great deal, and have
paid you promptly and honestly, haven't
I?'s "Oh, yes" answered the mel chant ;
81 .haye no complaint at all to make,
"Well," said the customer, Il always in
sisted that honesty was the best policy, aud
the best rule to live and die by" ''Hold
on, friend..' cried the merchant; speaking
of honesty, l have bit of advice to give
you. Whenever you come to trade again
you had better wear longer tailed coat or
steal shorter-tailed Goldfish !"

first regular step towards a bolt, but it does
not indicate any serious detection, 1t is
noticeable that the Convention did not
meet with any favorable response outside
of the State where it was held, and that
Missouri bids fair to stand alone at this
wonderful Cincinnati Convention. People
have not forgotten the Cleveland Conven-
ton of the disafected in 1864 which nom
mated John c. Fremont fer President,
neither have they forgotten its ridiculous
finale. Nor have they forgotten that then
the Germans comprised the great mass of
the bolting opposition to Lincoln, as they
do now of the opposition to Grant. Horace
Greeley then opposed the denomination of
Lincoln as earnestly as he now does that of
Grant In fact the opposition in the Re
publican ranks to the denomination of Lin
coin was stronger at that time, than the
opposition to Grants denomination now,
and the ignominious failure the attempt
to defeat Lincoln indicates the fate OF the
bolters in the coming campaign.-Ex

THE HEarrNG OF OUR HOUSES.

Entering the door OF our comfortable
modern houses, what meets us 7! A pun OF
scorched air from a register, redoient OF
burn;nu ;ron-or of boiled air from steam
heater. The thermometer is standing at
about 744o. We advance to the parior.
rbere matters are even worse, for no out
side cold has entered with momentary
freshness. The plants in the window look
yellow and forlorn. Ominous cracks are
visible here and there in the furniture
nay, a strip of ornamental veneer has
actually split off from the piano and lies on
the carpet Our hostess, coming forward
to greet us, is wrapped in little shawl,
and remarks that it is an awful day that
she hasn't been out, of course, but even IN
the warm house has felt the cold In
effect. she looks blue and pinched. Where
at we wonder, for the room feels insutfer-
ably hot; but we place ourselves beside
her where she sits covering over the re-
sister, and conversation goes on with what
spirit it may under these circumstances.
At the end of an hour we are surprised
to find ourselves little chilly. That is,
our head is hot enough little too hot,
perhaps-but both hands and feet are cold
and we we are inclined to agree with our
friend when she opines that 1.-The girl must
have let the fire 90 down. But glancing
at the thermometer, we stare to see that
the mercury has risen instead of falling.
1t is now at 500 And, after all, why
should we wonder? Nature is inevitable
10 her retributions, and we, no less than
the poor geranium in the window, must
suffer the penalty of deranged circulation
when we violate her laws of temperature.
Bad enough, if this were all One can
live and be useful under the trifing dis
comfort of cold extremities, as our worthy
forefathers efficiently proved But how
much of life and of life's best energies, of
thought, of wit, of good humor, of aspira-
ton, goes down through those holes in the
floor into neither silence As from some
Kobold's cave, the invisible gnomes of the
furnance climb, emerge, and steal from us
the choicest, finest, most intangible part of
ourselves No man ever lived and work.

NORTHERN CALIFoRNlA.-Heretofore
but very little attention has been paid to
the agricultural resources Of the northern
portion of this State, yet there are thousands
upon thousands of acres of very fine agri-
cultural and grazing lands in the extreme
northern counties, and to be had too for the
taking Finely watered and timbered, no
country presents greater inducements to
settlers more especially since the Califor-
MIA and Oregon Railroad is being so rapid
" extended towards the State line Then,
too, that section has been free FROM the
droughts which have proved so detrimental
to other sections. 1t has been considered
rather off to one side, although boats ran
regularly as far as Red Bluff. But from
above that point, getting produce to market
has been rather expensive. In another
twelve months, however, the majority of
these lands will be brought to the very
door of San Francisco. But even in Colu-
sa and Tehama counties-traversed as they
are by the best navigable river in the State,
land has remained remarkably cheap
Good opportunity for investments are offer
ed now all along the line of the California
and Oregon Railroad. The company itself
have some very fine lands and are offering
them CHEAP and OF the most accommoda-
ting terms Our agency also offers large
