Perry Davis Pain-Killer has been before the
public over thirty years, and has wider and
better reputation than any other proprietary
medicine of the present day. At this period
there are but few unacquainted with the merits
of the Pain-Killer but while some extol 1t
as liniment, they know but little Of its power
in easing pain when taken internally, while
others use it internally with great success, but
who are equally ignorant Of its healing virtues
when applied externally. We therefore wish
to say to all that it is equally successful used
internally or externally and it stands to-day
unrivaled by all the great catalogue OF Family
Medicines. It is sufficient evidence Of its
virtues as standard medicine, to know that it
is now used in all parts Of the world, and that
its sale is constantly increasing. No curatiye
agent has had more widespread sale or given
such universal satisfaction. It is purely
vegetable compound, and perfectly safe, even
in unskilled hanGs.-[Com.

NARROW EsoAPE.-The Hudson has
a dam at Troy over which the water
goes down an incline of thirty feet.
Above the dam ice is cut for the city's
use. Six men were at work when a
space OF nearly half an acre upon which
they stood became detached. 1t foated
rapidly toward the fall, to the horror of
the SIX men and of the spectators on
shore. Over they went, and were
neither drowned nor seriously hurt.
The ice was not badly broken in the
shoot, as the water on the incline ran
very smooth and high, and they were
easily rescued.

An old man who had much experience
in handling and dealing in horses for
more than half century, said to me
recently that he had never known a
horse to get tender footed that was
kept loose in shed and yard, or in a
boxed stall. The turning around and
treading with their forward feet in the
manure keep them constantly moist and
soft. His theory appeared perfectly
reasonable to me. have no box stalls,
but used shavings for bedding, and
every morning with large shovel
moved the wet shaving under the horses
forward feet, and then the last thing at
night cover these with dry shavings
for him to lie on. He also remarked
that he never knew flat.footed horse
but what was great worker.

The Future of Los Angeles.

Hitherto the diversified interests of
our leading citizens have not tended
to unite, but to ALLEVIATE and divide.
But the growth of our population, the
increase of wealth and the general
prosperity of city and county has
swallowed up old antagonisms and
brought about new era in our his
tory. In the days of struggle through
which we have passed the true ele-
ment of strength has been overlooked
and left out of our creed. Every man
was left to work out his own destiny
on the independent line; and it is but
justice to say, they have done it well
and deserve praise But notwithstand-
ing our former success, the feet must
not be disguised that we have about
reached the acma of our greatness on
the independent line. While
we have been climbing the hill of
prosperity, other communities have
done the same, and they now become
our competitors. Grand enterprises
are projected which must inevitably
bring great prosperity to some por-
tion of Southern California, and it is
within our PROV ince now to grasp the

Peaches and Apples.

The idea seems to prevail quite gen.
orally among the people of the East
that the fruits of the temperate zone
do not prosper in the semi-tropical
climate of Los Angeles valley. The
HERALD has received a number of
letters written by persons at dis
tance, in which the fact that peaches
and apples will not grow here is re-
GREETED. The real fact is that those
who believe this fruit will not thrive
in Los Angeles valley, are laboring
under serious mistake. The apple
and the orange tree grow side by side,
and it is not uncommon to see the
peach and the lemon tree in the same
grove and both loaded with excellent
fruit. The specimens of apples and
peaches that have been brought to this
office within the last two weeks afford
the most satisfactory evidence that for
size and flavor both varieties grown
in THIS valley are unsurpassed by the
products of any other section of the
Pacific Coast. The apples and peaches
to be seen at any of our fruit stands
need only be seen to at once and eff
fectually set aside all doubts as to the
growth of temperate zone fruit in the
southern coast counties. We grow as
fine peaches and apples can be found
in the State. ra

citizens, IL is the ambition of your
confidence, of your good will-the am
bition of your approval, your appro-

dissensions of the people of this Gov
ernment."
He had reinstated himself In their
confidence, for cheer after cheer went
up, "Hurah for Andrew Johnson; he
is peer among mobiles; We wish you
were President now; you are the
smartest man in the United StatesW
Gen. Cheatam had spoken before Kim
and in the course of his remarks had
said something rejecting on the per-
sonal courage and bravery of "Andy.n
He caught up the sentiment and after
showing the accusations groundless he
whirled around, his face beaming
with rage, to Cheatam, who sat on
his right, and fastening his eyes upon
him said, with great force: "I hope
the gentleman will remember these
two eyes (pointing to his own, never
yet beheld a man fixing his hand upon
his breast) this heart feared.n The
effect was wonderful. Every man
there, no less than Cheatam was i'm
pressed with the conviction that
Johnson was brave man.
His political life has been an utterly
inconsistent one. Unfortunately, he
has disregarded the honor and in
terest of his country when their adj
vancement was likely to defeat his
own preferment. 1t can hardly be
said that this has uniformly been the
rule but has often been the case.
From the very opening of the Seces-
sion war, he declared himself on the
side of the North, thereby in Southern
parlance proving himself traitor, to
his State and section, to whom he
owed his first and most sa-
cred allegiance. 1t was doubtless
owing to the persecution he
had sustained for his loyalty that
led the Republican party to mno-
mate him for Vice-President thereby
hoping to win over part Of the sub
terranean Democracy.
In appearance Mr.. Johnson is of
Medium stature with countenance
uncommonly interesting and prepos-
sessing, and an eye when speaking,
that glows like coal of fire.
Altogether, he is man of great en-
ergy of will and firmness of character,
and evinces always in his addresses
strong practical common sense.

the tide in our history, if taken at its
flood, that leads to prosperity; but,
sighted once, it may never return.
Since our railroad enterprises have
been agitated, other communities and
corporations have moved with zeal
and energy to swing these great inter-
ests in another direction. We have

mortifying to see a wealthy commu-
nifty as we have here, backing and
filling over an enterprise that will
bring millions into their own pockets,
and enrich the whole country. There
are o half dozen men in this commu-
nifty that could build the road, not
only from the sea to this city, but
from here to Owens river, and add
millions to their own estate by doing
it. But we do not ask, neither do we
want a few men to do this, we want
everybody to help, and nine tenths Of

parties who have the matter in hand

THE City Assessor rushes into print
with haste that seems almost inde-

Assessor feels that he ought to defend

SCISSOR, and shall have none unless that
functionary insists on tilt with us.

Council that the assessment of this
year is "pretty good;" "better than
last year." Let US hope that that OF
next year will be something more
than "pretty good" The public SER
want who does his work "pretty

so paid, he should rejoice that it is as
