THANKSGIVING DAY.

The day of tribulation for fat
geese, turkeys, chickens and ducks,
is fixed for Thursday next. AS
usual every year, the President has
issued his proclamation, appointing
the Goth of the present month as a
day of thanksgiving and prayer to
the good Father of us all.
Generally, the American citizen
celebrates the day by inordinately
indulging in the creature comforts,
and from behind mound of bones,
we'll cleared plates, empty bottles
and nut-shells, complacently views
this wicked world, its surround
ings. its tribulations, its irritations,
and its follies, with well satisfied
air of content, derived from an
amply filed stomach. Strangers,
unaccustomed to our ways, very
naturally arrive at the conclusion
upon these occasions, that We be-
long to that class referred to in the
Scriptures, "whose God is their
belly"

MINING ASSESSMENTS.

80 Mill owners should remember
that the laws of Congress govern
ing the location and ownership of
mines require that labor equivalent
to 10 dollars on each and every 100
lineal feet shall be expended on all
mining claims located prior to the
10th day of May, 1872, before the
first day of January next. or the
same shall be subject to relocation.
If at any time since the passage of
the Act that amount has been ex-
pended on mining claim it secures
the same for the next assessment
year. On all claims located under
the law of Congress entitled, " An
Act to promote the development of
the mining resources of the United
States" not less than 100 dollars in
labor or improvements shall be
performed each year unless a pat
emit has been obtained for the same.
An important feature of the law is
that although application for patent
NAV have been made and the final
payment made to the Receiver, I'M
less the patent is actually issued,
the expenditure must be made on
the claim to secure it from reloca-
ton, as the law requires the annual
expenditure of the above-named
sum until the patent is issued. As
many mining claims are located
high in the mountains and will not
be easy of access later in the sea-
son, those interested should have
the necessary expenditure of labor
made Immediately if they have not
already done SO. All claims on
which the expenditure is not made
will be subject to relocation after
the first day of January next, the
same as if they never had been
located,

The GREAT TRoTTING RACE
The great trotting race at the Bay
District Fair Association grounds,
in San Francisco, last Saturday,
came off as advertised, says the
"News." The entries were Fuller
ton, Occident and Purdy. The
first heat was won by Fullerton in
900 IL. This is by three and a
half seconds the fastest time ever
made to wagon. Some years ago.
in race between Dexter and Lady
Thorne, the former made 2:24.
This, until Saturday, stood the
best recorded time to wagon. De-
cident showed his plebian blood,
sulked, broke and behaved badly
generally. Purdy came in good
second in this heat, while Occident
came within few inches of being
distanced. The second heat was
again won by Fullerton, with Purdy
second and Occident last. Time of
heat, 2:22 ga. Everybody hedged,
and pools sold at $1,000 on Fuller
ton, to 500 on Occident, and Purdy
as the "field." The horses were
called for the third heat at 4:30 P. NJ.
Fullerton won this heat and the race
in 2:214; marvellous time for a
third heat to wagon; Occident being
six lengths behind and Purdy thirty
Yards behind Occident. This may
serve in some measure to cure Cali
fornians of unlimited and unreason-
able faith in their horses. A week
before Thad. Stevens was very badly
beaten by sleek little Eastern mare
and now the pet trotter of California
has been "waxed" even worse by
another Eastern flyer. 1t has cost
Californians much lucre to back
their opinions on the defeated horses
and may perhaps teach them an
equivalent quantity of judgment,
which, in betting on horse races, is
as necessary as coin; 4. e., if one de-
sres to win.

REPUBLICANS at Washington do
not believe the Forty-fourth Con-
gress will be called together on the
4th of March, instead of in Deem
Der. Prominent Democrats, how
ever, are actively engaged in the en-
deavor to create a public sentiment
in favor of the project. 1t is even
said in some quarters that the Demo-
Gratis in the present Congress will
conspire together to postpone action
on important appropriations until
after the date fixed by law for the
adjournment, and so compel the
President to call an extra session.
By this means the Democratic Con-
gress would be able to organize, turn
out the present officers OF the House,
appoint their own favorites, accom-
plish a little legislation that shall
furnish some political capital upon
which to work during the Summer
and Fall, and adjourn to begin bust
ness in December IN earnest.
There is no good reason why any
such course should be taken. All
the pressing business can be easily
transacted before March, and there
is no emergency calling for an extra
session, and if the Democrats attempt
to force it upon the President they
will lose, instead Of gaining, in pop.
ular favor.

1t matters not what your troubles may be,

1t will cost you nothing for consultation, so
please call and satisfy yourselves whether the

you he will tell you SO if not, he Will say SO,
for he will not undertake case unless he Is
confident of effecting a cure.

THE recent victory has given rise
to some extraordinary rhetoric. A
Mississippi editor proclaims: "Once
more the children of the conqueror
and the defendants of Alfred and
Edward glory in their ancestry, and
fling the standards of white suprem-
acy to the fragrant breezes of the
southland, and the shouts of the vic
torious and unconquerable Caucas-
sian ascends in a grand diapason to
the eternal throne of liberty" And
Missourian, mighty of quill, ex-
claims: "Now will come that hoary-
headed old political sneak-thief, The
st. Louis Republican, trying to
worm its vile carcass under the edges
of the grand Democratic circus tent.
Spit the blue vitriol of truth in his
eyes, and toss it to the Bengal tigers
of the glorious caravan"
