The Warming has been Needed.

Since the exposure of the attempts
made by certain unscrupulous local deal
ers, to palm off their coarse astrngents,
made from cheap and impure materials,
in the place of the great national tonic,
Hostetter's Stomach Btters, public opin-
ion has set strongly ly against these empir-
les and their preparations. Their occu
patton is gone, or soon will be. When
the light is let into deception it soon willis
down. Persons who trifle with their own
health, by using unknown preparations,
with no guarantee to sustain them, when
an established specific, proven by twenty
years experience to be exactly what it is
claimed to be, is within their reach, are
sure to repent their temerity. Many have
done so in this instance, but it is hoped
that the truth plainly spoken has arrest
ed the evil. In the mean time the de-
storative medicine of America was never
the fever and ague districts of the west,
south west, and south, it is literally over
whelming, and it may be said of the ad-
vices from all parts Of the country of the
cures it is etfccting in dyspepsia, bilious
complaints, and chronic constipation,
that "their name is legion" Every
where the sick and feeble seem to have
realized the importance of "holding fast
that which is good" and of avoiding
what is spurious and dangerous.
The numerous Bitters," under vari-
Gus names, which mercenary dealers en-
deavor to substitute for Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, should be avoided, for their
own sakes, by the sick and the public at
large. Hostetter's Bitters are procurable
in bottles only, and never sold in bulk.

THE BALL IN MoTIoN.-A start has
been made. Weaverville is to have a
Christmas Tree, on Christmas Eve, and
the little folks are to have real merry
time-such one it is hoped as will last
them until next Christmas. The funds
necessary for getting the tree, decorating
it and hiring the Theater, are to be raised
by contributions from those unlucky (?)
individuals who have no progeny to as
sail them with such epithets as Dad, :"
"Pap," etc. 1t is expected that parents
will furnish such presents as they desire
for their children, and we believe that
the youngsters will think more of their
trnkets from having received them off
the tree, than they would to find them in
their stockings. We know we should,
for the last stockings we hung up on
Christmas Eve contained nothing but
ashes the next morning. There will
probably be some parents who do not feel
able to give their children presents, even
on Christmas, but the Committee having
the tree in charge, intend to furnish some
thing for these-in fact it is hoped that
every child in this vicinity will be pres
ent on the occasion and every one shall
receive a present. Arrangements will be
made to have an opening address and
singing, and we hear it quietly whispered
that to "Old Santa Claus himself will
be extended an invitation to be present.
The evergreens for decorating the hall
were brought to town on Thursday, and
all our citizens who take an interest in the
affair are cordially invited to "drop in :"
the Theater any evening after Z O'Clock
and help decorate. The all-important
part however, is this: Three ladies
have been selected as a Committee on
Finance, and are taking considerable
trouble to see all the young men in the
ncighborhood. Now, we know our little
town has no artful dodgers" but then
such thing is possible as that the FL
nance Committee may not find every one
at home when they call, and to these we
would in behalf of the Committee say
that any donation they may wish to
make will be thankfully received by said
Committee. Heads of families will bear
in mind that the young folks are getting
up the tree and they will only be expect
ed to furnish presents for their own chill
dren. After the distribution of presents
il is intended to turn the little folks loose
and let them have a little fun under the
supervision of their parents.

MORE OF THE SAME SORT WANTED.
Messrs. Ramm, Blenker & Co., a compa-
ny of Nevada miners, after prospecting a
while, have started in to open diggings in
the banks of Trinity river about a mile
below Papoose guch. They have bought
a water-right in Papoose gulch, rugged
their claim with iron pipe and patent
nozzle, are now putting their ditch in
order, and intend to mine in regular
Nevada county style. These gentlemen
think they have struck good diggings,
and we hope they think right. This is
the sort Of immigration we want-men
who come to prospect, not to speculate.
1t is beginning to be generally understood
in mining sections that there are plenty
OF mines in Trinity county.

To PATRoNs.--With the present month
and year closes the Seventeenth Volume
and year Of the TRINITY JOURNAL. All
persons indebted to us will receive state
mcnts of their accounts prior to January
1st, 1873, and we hope that they will be
prompt in making settlements. No one
subscriber owes us great deal, but when
all our outstanding accounts are taken in
the aggregate it amounts to a considera-
BILE sum. Those individuals who sub
scribed for the JOURNAL merely to help
it along, and never pay a cent, are re-
minded that Five Dollars n year is our
subscription price, and that five dollar
piece weighs more in our pockets than
does their names on our books.

Mexican DOings.

In our last issue we made men,
ton of a rumor that had just
reached town to the effect that
some forty Mexicans had taken
possession of the property of J. l..
Smith, in Mexico. Since then,
Mr.. Smith was in town, and he in
formed us of the fact that about
one hundred Mexicans were on
his place, and that twenty mules
and horses disappeared mystic
riously from his ranch since their
occupation. What their mission
is he was unable to ascertain, but
sure it is nothing good will come
of it.

The spectators were wild with ex-
citment, but not so with the bull.
All he wanted was to get out of
the pen, which he did as often as
brought back into it. In short,
there was no fight in the beast,
and the third time he got out OF
the corral he was allowed to go
nnmoIested. The audiendce turn

pointed.

The Fiesta.

it has been customary with the
Maxicans to have an annual feast a
few weeks before Christmas, aside
Of their semi-occassonal ones,
which occur as the notion may
take them. This, however, is very
similar to a fair, only the revenue
goes not to charitable purposes.
The expenses attending the get
ting up of this fiesta consist in the
renting of the ground and the
building of a shed for ball room.
with ground floor, we'll sprinkled,
which sticks to the sole of the
boots of the dancers in such a
manner that it is impossible to
fall down unless one is.so unfortu-
nate as to stumble on a rock. All
around this ball room (?) are erect
ed temporary houses made of
cloth, where men and women
keep restaurants, bar-rooms, fruit
stands, candy stands, and in fact
everything that our market af-
fords; and little more, too, can
be had there. Our first intructiOn
to this popular place of resort was
in a restaurant. After having
carefully examined the bill of fare
or rather after having attentive
ly listened to the names Of the
different dishes served at this res
taurant, as they were called by
the landiady, e1ac}tIGdds and to-
males struck us as something that
must be good. We called for
e'2chiladaS, and We event in for
them" After the first mouthfnl
we surrendered. We can eat
frogs, rats, ETC., etc., but when it
comes to eating red peppers, sea-
soned with but very little, if any,
meat, we "ain't on it." The Next |
cans, however, eat them with as
much relish as we would buck |
wheat cakes and Iasses. Out in
the open air can be seen women
setting at tables dealing "monte,"
"chuckle-up," "kino," and every |
other imaginable games where
money is put up for stakes.
Last year this feast had a run |
Of three weeks, but it is the gen.
eral opinion that the present af-
fair will not last half that time. |
1t commenced last Saturday even
ing, and will probably run two or
three nights longer.

Did Paul Have aWife.

1t was an early question whether
the Apostle Paul was married. The
passage in the epistlc to the Cor
inthians in which he speaks of
himself as nnincumbcred with do
nestle cares does not preclude the
notion that he might have been q
widower-does not even prove more
than that he went on his missionary
JOURNEYS alone. On the other hand
he speaks of his assent to the death
of Stephen, and of his commission
from the Sanhedrim-tunctlons and
powers that could not well have
been exercised by man who was
not member Of that council. But
we are expressly told that this great
assembly of the Jews included only
fathers, to secure merciftll inter-
probation of the law. An early ex-
planation, too, OF the "true yoke
fellow" at the church in Philippi,
whom he bids labor to reconcile
or assist Enodia and Syntyche,
recognizes the wife of the apostle in
the phrase. The cpistle was, il
may be said almost certainly, writ
ten from Rome, and during the time

pcrils Of the apostles situation were
aggravated by sorrow, and ultima
