CUNDURANGo.--The following is
from the Oakland Transcript, Of
February 9th
We heard this week of another
astonishing cure performed by the
weed growing luxuriantly and plen-
TRULY in South America, and known
as the cundurango. A Mrs. Tidball,
living near this city, has been affected
for years with a growing cancer, IN
til her physician stated that her case
was hopeless, and abandoned her tC a
slow death. The efficacy of the
cundurango became known to her,
and she has been trying the same for
about two months, and assures us
she is satisfied she will be completely
cured. As a preventive from the
disastrous effect of cancer, the cum
durango seems to be what vaccina-
ton is towards preventing the maliS-
nant type of small pox.

STILL INPEACHING.-More trouble
is brewing in Nebraska. Having
impeached one Governor, some of
the politicians seem anxious to
shelve anOther-Acting Governor
James. James left the State for a
few days, and during his absence the
President of the Senate called a spe-
cial session of the Legislature, with
a view to impeachment of State Off
GERS. 1t is reported that Governor
James will be back in a few days to
checkmate the movement. Sharp

they sell only for cash, thus taking
NJ risks. This alone would
seem to Indicate that the prices now
ruling are speculative, and too high.
But we think that this feeling of dis
trust arises from the fact that there
is not money enough in our market
TO carry mining stocks at the prices
now ruling. We will admit, for
argument sake, that the mines are
worth all they 7 selling for; we Will
even admit they are worth more
but we cannot shut our eyes to the
notorious fact that it takes over two
hundred millions to carry these
stocks. Two hundred millions would
be a small sum in Paris, London or
New York, for the two fold reason
that money is abundant there, and
that stocks of all descriptions are
principally held by men who invest
therein their surplus capital, or
make a regular business of it. Who
holds stocks here? In most instances
men who take money out of their
business, Intentionally for a short
time, often from one collection day
to another, to make a turn, and who
must be able to realize at short no.
tice to meet the eXigencies of trade.
They rely mostly on bank accommo-
dalton. Now, only one or two big
banks hold out this so-called accom-
mediation, and the day they choose
to withhold it, everybody realizes
and the market is fiat. In other
words, the Bank Of California can
cause a panic in stocks in five min
utes whenever it suits its purpose,
and sometimes it does suit its pur-
pose. And this is why brokers are
afraid to do business.

TO THE PUBLIC.

With this issue of the Daily State
Register the proprietorship passes
into other hands, Mr.. John Booth,
late of the Unionville Silver State
being the purchaser. 1t is scarcely
necessary for us to introduce Mr..
Booth to the people of Carson, for a
residence of many years at Virginia
and Gold Hill has already made HIM
acquainted with many of the resi-
dents of this valley. The patrons
of the State Register will find him a
gentleman Of integrity, honorable
and liberal in all his business deal
ings. an able journalist, and skilled
in all the minutia OF his profession.
1t is his design to maintain the pa
Der in a stvle creditable to the town,
tomake it interesting and valuablefor
daily reference locally, and through
the surrounding towns. To do this
successfully, of course, requires
mutual cooperation. The Capital
of the State ought to support a re-
spectacle daily paper, deriving its
income. as any other business, from
the natural trade and intercourse OF
the public. The people of this
town and county owe it to them
selves to support with cordial Ilber-
atty their local paper. Ii sufficient
business Will warrant the eNpendl-
ture. Nj. Booth will be glad to meet
the people more than halfway, and
enlarge and otherwise improve the
paper correspondingly. For the
present. Mr.. Street will continue in
charge of the editorial columns.
Thus much for the future; for the
past. we Will only add that we have
endeavored to furnish a paper in ac-
cordance with the assurances made
in our Introductory nearly fourteen
months ago. In the expression of
editorial opinions We have not
specially aimed to please the public
but rather to candidly express our
IDEAS on such public matters as
called for reference or discussion.
with the freedom which appertains to
every private individual. Enter
tanning a sincere regard for the right,
and endeavoring to do, as well as
exact justice from all, We close our
dictatorship of the paper with mem
cries mellowed by many kindly acts,
and pleasant associations with the
people of Carson Valley.

FAXED OYER.

We extract the following from
Capt. D. B. Hays Speech, at the
Liberal Parish Convention, held at
Homer, in Claiborne Parish, on Sat-
urday the Goth inst. /:
The late Democratic convention
seems to have been controlled by
such men as these such old hacks
and fossils Us Cotton, the Hunt fam
lily, Wicklille, Hymns and a whole
school of pestiferous little asses who
occupied the time of the convention
to the exclusion of vital interests OF
the State. If the Democratic party
is to be controlled by these men, I,
for one, want none Of the Demo-
cratic party. If the city Of New Or
leans, as represented by these men,
is to rule the State and to dictate to
the whole people-then I propose to
leave the party they are in and seek
another, and if in that one they find
safe Judgment, I propose continuing
to seek until I have found a party
and men Of unselfsh patriotism.
The people, for State purposes,
want u union with the Liberal party,
and that union we will have. 1t is
only by such union that we can be
successful it is to show your desire
for such coalition that you are here
to-day in the largest mass meeting
that has assembled within these
walls for years.

In Africa as a weight in gold, as it is
in India for gems and pearls. It is,
