SACRAMENTO.

Since the establishment of the central
depot of the Central Pacific Railroad at
Sacramento, the city has made rapid strides
in improvement From having been an
unimportant, unpleasant and uDsightly
place, Sacramento now Icons up, and as
sumes position as second CRY of the State,
and is still stepping forward in the march
of improvement. Its streets are wide and
commodious-its building. imposing 10
architecture aud convenient 10 construction
its departments of municipal government
well conducted, securing "equal and exact
justice" to citizen and stranger-and tacili-
ties for shipping equal t" any part Of the
coast She has brought into business ope
rations the best Of business talent-men of
means, extended IDEAS, and liberal public
spirit Her merchants have walked up to
the necessity of the times, that in this day
to obtain patronage aud custom it needs
inducements to bring it. Trade must be
hunted up, and can only be kept, by watch
ing cIrefully every mutation of the markets,
and keeping changes. The great city of
Chicago built up her large proportions and
extensive trade by such means. Her can.
vassers may be found everywhere, and when
a customer may be had by the most liberal
of offers, his patronage is secured. Sacra-
mento can and does offer to day as many
facilities for trade as San Francisco AL
though not SO abundautly supplied with
general Merchandise, yet'her stock of goods
is very large and we'll selected, and her
Id ~ -
ness. You can find but little of that cheap
John character of goods which may be
seen everywhere through the best business
points Of San Francisco. These men take as
much pride in their business as they have
desire to make money, aud they always are
equal to whatever emergency may happen.
The artisans of Sacramento are as expert
and we'll skilled as anywhere in the State
Gonds are selling at as low figures as San
Francisco does afford-and as many induce
ments to tr de present themselves to the
purchaser as at San Francisco. We call
particular attention to these facts, and ad-
wise that our up country business men give
Sacramento trial We say to the Sacramen
to men come among US, cultivate acquaint
ance, and proclaim your trade and
advantlgcs-and above all other things
don't forget to advertise. We speak ser
iously about these things, ana know that
what We say is the truth.-[Jhico Enter

that time"
:'Well. sir, said the Governor, ego home
and court her now just as you did then
and love her as when you married her
