A NEW DKPARTURE IN MEDICINE
There are ssnew departures" in medicine

out any alcoholic basis, which Is curing
disorders Of the stomach, liver, bowels,
nerves. and pulmonary. organs, with =
rapidity that fairly entities him to the

be safely pronounced the most popular
remedy Of the age. When tits considered
that this now famous specific was intro
duced some two years ago, its presentsale,
which Is ut the rate of 5000 600 bottles per
al1num, can only be ascffbed to its fntFin-
sic merits. 1t Is believed that the history
of epatent incidence, affords no example
of a success SO rapid and complete. The
community insists that this success is
thoroughly deserved and we have no In
clination to dispute It's dictnn. The voice
ofthe People.if not excetly that Of Omnip-
otepce, is generally the. Yoice Of Com

time to tAke sober second thought on the

The best way, says x. A. Willard, to
keep shippers from cheese is to use eel
bow grease freely-that is, keep the sur
face Of the cheese and the tables or ssset-
ters'' ON which the cheese rest, well
rubbed daily. Cheese that is properly
made and we'll cared for, while scuring,
will have little or no trouble from skip
pers. Cheese, while curing, should be
turned daily, and the surface well rubbed
to destroy all deposit made by the cheese

The Boston Globe, in highly appreciative review of the past policy of President GRANT, expresses its dissent to one only of the dis tinguishing acts of the Administration-the Indian policy. The unfavorabe criticism differs so widely from the common eastern sentiment on the subject, and is so in harmony with the feeling in Colorado, that we quote the entire paragraph: "We cannot dismiss, '" says the Globe, "the review of the more per sonal part of General Grants policy without dissenting in toto from the appreciation acco' : ded to him by his eulogists for his Indian policy. That policy may, and doubtless does, indicate goodness of heart in the President, who originated it, and if the Indians were what we would wish them to be. and such as closet sentimentalists describe them, it would be wise and noble policy. But the fact IS quite otherwise, and the Indian nature is such that the Presidents missionaries produce no more effect in overcoming their native feroc'ty than the Quaker guns of the Chinese did Tn daunting the bravery of the British veterens in the Chinese war. The ludian nature IS exceptional. and admits only ot that treat ment which compels obcdience."- Colorado Chielt

Suicide of F. L. A. Pioche. :

Our san Francisco exchanges give full ac- counts of the recent death of Mir. Pioche by bis own act. He shot himself between the eyes, with revolver, while in bed at his own house, on the morning of the Sth inst We clip the following from the San Francisco i CaU:
 The cause which led Mir Pioche to take DIS own life was an affection of the brain, which, 1t Is presumed, brought on fit of temporary insanity, during which he fired the shot. For many months previous to his death, Mir. Pioche had complained of severe pains in his head, and his most intimate friends say that no cause other than that mentioned could have brought on the frenzy from which he must have been suffering when he took his life. On Wednesday afternoon and evening he was quite cheerful and enter tained friends at his house until late hour, after which he retired for the night. No let ters or evidence indicating that he had pre- meditated the act could be found. It was reported that in January last he made an at tempt to take his life by swallowing lauda- nun, but he took an overdose and by that means failed to accomplish his object The deceased was a native of France, fifty five years of age, and unmarried. He leaves no blood relations except brother, who re- sides in France. He came to this city in ls48 from Santiago de Chile, where he had held the post of Secretary to the French Consul; and soon after his arrival in Califor- mia he engaged in the business of importing French wines and merchandise, and some years after that established the banking house which has for many years been known as 'Pioche and Bayerque" The firm is still in existence. with Lester l.. Robinson in the place of MT. Bayerque, who died few years ago. He was a far-seeing man, and in the early days of California expressed the opinion that San Francisco would be the great city of the Pacific Coast. He lived long enough to realize the fact that he had been correct in his opinion. He was always energetic and entcrprising, and did much to advance the condition of our city. He was the first to build wharves of any extent, the first to erect gas works. He was the proprietor of the first line of street cars run in this city the Market-street line-which served to re- claim an immense tract of country, which twelve or fourteen years ago was covered with sand hills, but which have now given place to so many magnificent structures. He was also the proiector of the first railroad in California-the Sacramento Valley road running between Sacramento and Folsom. Mir Pioche directed his attention to the mines, and was largly interested in the Ely District in the State of Nevada. Tie town of Poche in that State was named in honor of him.
 The deceased was a man who, by his con- duct in business and in social life, drew around him a host of true friends. His estate is estimated to be worth nearly one million of dollars He has left will, of which J. B. Felton, Gustave Dussolle, Samuel Theller, d J. B. Bayerque, are the execu- tors
