in regard TO the cost Of printing debates.
Ordered printed together with the views
Of the minority. Ia lGiiTNa 4 i = :
Mr.. Waddell-The conclusions ofthe
majority Of the Committee are that the
reporting OF debates Is being done for
s.. 200 less for each House for the present
Congress than the like work cost in the
last Congress, and that the printing Of
debates at the Government printing Office
costs at least SIPS, 900 less than was paid
to Rtves q Bailey for the same work In
the Last Congress, and that the present
quarIo form oi the daily record IS greatly
preferable TO the newspaper form, and
that on these and other grounds It would
be the reverse Of economy 10 enter into the

MohE FrREs.-Last week we had to chronicle

MokE FIREs.-Last week we had to chronicle
he burning of the Empire Hotel, near Ophir,
which now seems to have been only the first of
series of incendiary fires, previously plotted
against that part of the country. Last Saturday
night tln Ophr school house completely
destroyed by fire and the old Poland building
and shed, formerly hotel, on the turnpike, be-
tween here and Ophir, was, ON the same night,
burned to the ground. That both were set on
fire, there is not room for doubt. The shed
was but little loss, as it was old and rotten, and
unoccupied. The school house, with an addi-
ton which was just being completed, it was
calculated would have answered the purpose for
many years. 1t is estimated that the loss OF the
building cannot be made good for less than
$1,000, say nothing about the loss to the chill
dren, in being deprived of school ben efts, until
another house can be fitted up, Or, perhaps, a
new one erected. There was, we understand,
$500 insurance on the school house and furni-
ture, which will go long way toward fitting up
and furnishing some other building to answer
the purpose, at least temporarily, if such can
be had.

Source OF Many Ills.

If all the ailments, bodily and mental, which
torment tho human family could be traced to
their primary sources, it would probably be
found that three-fourths of them originated in
the failure of the stomach and the other organs
by which the food is converted into nutriment
and applied to the purposes of life, to perform
the tasks allotted to them by nature, vigorously
and regularly. This being the case the vast i'm
portance Of a medicine which compels these or
gans to do their whole duty thoroughly and
efficiently, becomes at once apparent. Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters may be truly characterized
as a preparation of this kind, indeed as the only
one which can be implicitly relied on as combin-
ing the properties of stomachic, an Alternative
and an aperient in such proportions as to pro-
duce simultaneously the desired effect upon the
disordered stomach liver, and intestines. This
conclusion ia warranted by the celebrity and GER
tainty with which the Bitters affords relief in
chronic cases of dyspepsia, torpidity of the liver
and constipation. The false idea that these
complaints and others that grow out of them
could be cured by fierce cathartics, has at last it
is hoped, been thoroughly exploded. The sick.
during the last hundred years, have swallowed
thousands of tons of mercury, scammony, gam
boge, crOton oil, jalap, etc., and tens of thOus-
ands OF graves have been prematurely filled
thereby. But ever since the principle of renova-
ton, as embodied in Hoststter's Stomach Bitters
was arrayed against the principle of prostratior,
as represented by mineral salivants and furious
purgatives, the latter has steadily and surely
fallen into deserved contempt The outcry
against stimulation by which concoctors Of de-
pletng drenches hoped to give eclat to their dis
.gusting and dangerous compounds has only
served to increase the demand of the wholesome
stimulant, tonic and Alternative which for twenty
five years triumphed over all opposition and is
now the most popular medicine in the Western
hemisphere.

FRUIT DRrEn.--A. Fougeron, of Auburn, has
conceived an idea of his own for q fruit dryer.
He has completed the drawings Of the machine,
from which one can get q pretty good idea OF
how it will work without attempting de-
scription, we will say that it looks as though IT
would be very practical. 1t can be built any size
desired. from family dryer, with capacity Of
say one hundred pounds day, to factory dryer
with capacity of several tons per day. 1t is SO
arranged that it can be taken apart boxed up
and shipped to any part desired. It's cost, in
proportion to its capacity, is very reasonable.
$50 will build one of these dryers of medium
size. Thus, if it proves success, which we
think it WILL this most important adjunct to the
fruit interest, will be placed in reach IF all. Z

LINCOLN Coal MNs.--We were down in this
mine last Tuesday. and were surprised to find
the works 30 extensive, and the body Of coal SO
large. So far they have done nothing but drift,
by way OF prospecting the mine to ascertain the
extent of the body Of coal They have drifts
running from the main shaft in all directions,
and these drifts are connected by GROSS drifts
until they form what might be termed cata-
comb The farthest shey have yet run from the
main shaft, in one direction. is about 275 feet.
The coal bed lies about go feet from the surface,
and is, on an average about eight feet thick.
As far as they have run yet. in any direction.
they have discovered no signs of it pinching out

LADY PATIENT.-An elderly lady. by the name
of Matilda Phelps. on her way, by rail, from
Portland, Maine according to her own story to
California, while getting on the cars at Emgrant
Gap, slipped and broke one of her legs between
the knee and ankle. She was q poor woman,
alone among strangers, with but one dollar in
the world 1t seems she was left by the ex-
press train, of which she was passenger, but
subsequently sent down the freight train to
Auburn, to be treated in the Placer county hos
pital. She arrived here az two o'clock, last
Tuesday morning, and was conveyed from the
depot to the hospital in one of Mr.. Mclaughlin S
easy carriages. This is the first of female
patient in our hospital for many years. And,
rs there is no ward set apart for females. we
should think the situation to all concerned, and
especially to this patient would be rather en-
barrassng. Here is chance for some of our
ladies to perform an act of genuine charity, by
at least calling on this lonely and unfortunate
creature, and carrying with them some little
delicacies, which the nature of her so natur-
ally Graves Even q bunch of flowers, and a
SIN ling countenance,~ borne by one of her own
sex, would be to her an oasis in the desert of her
troubles. Who will be the good Samaritan to
move in the matter :?
