A great many virtues have been ascribed to
the Eucalyptus, or Australian gum-tree. 1t
has been claimed, and apparently on good
authority-that 1t absorbs the poisonous matter
Of the atmosphere in malarious districts, and
prevents fever and ague and typhoid fevers. The
wood of the tree is used pfoftably in various
kinds of useful and ornamental manufactures.
1t is a rapid grower in many localities on these
Islands. Now if a recent California paper tells a
true story-and in the absence of rebutting evil
dence we shall not pretend to discredls 1.-THE
Eucalyptus has a still higher claim upon public
attention. 1t cures rheumatism-a disease which
has heretofore bafied medical science. The Pet
aluma Argus tells how this discovery was made.
a gentleman, whose name is given, had tried
most of the advertised and approved remedies to
mitigate the pain of this affection, without avail.
He visited the West India Islands and many
other regions for relief, but without obtaining it.
He arrived at Petaluma, and this what the Argus
says concerning bis experience of a few weeks:
Zone of our hotel-keepers, with whom Mr..
Quinlan was acquainted, noticed among his guests q
man who had his arms and legs bound up with
leaves. Upon questioning the party he learned that
he was afflicted with rheumatism, and that he had
bound the diseased parts with the leaves of the
Eucalyptus tree, from which he had experienced
great relief and apparently almost a permanent cure
in a few days. This intelligence was communicated
to Mr.. Quinlan, who Immediately tried the expert
ment, with the most gratifying results. He procured
a quantity of rank green Eucalyptus leaves. and
heating each one slightly, bound them upon the
parts in which he felt the most pain. The effect was
marvellous; the pain ceased in q short time, and in q
little while the long-sufering patient felt like a new
man. He continued to apply the leaves and to wear
them while walking about the streets, and now at
the end of two weeks, he feels entirely well. He has
gained six pounds in weight during the last week,

him the power of applying this remedy should he be
attacked again.
This remedy has one merit which will commend
it to many-it is Inexpensive. Persons afflicted
with rheumatism will do well to give it a trial.
If it will do for others what it is said to have
done in the case above described, thousands of
sufferers will be made to rejoice and be thankful.

ah hulctment for muroyr, that the prisoner was

oHehse- The law holds a person responsible for
d criminal act, though, at the time, he was
intoxicated to such an extent as to be unconscious
oil what he was doing And further, that
= Intoxieation is a voluntary deprivation of reason,
and cannot be given in evidence, even on a trial
for murder, to excuse the offender The Jury
brought in a verdict of guilty of manslaughter in
the first degree, and the Court at once pronounced
sentence of imprisonment at hard labor for a
term of ten years.
From what has repeatedly appeared in the
public journals, and from the records of the
Courts for several years past, it is qnite clear to
our apprehension that to the prevalence of the
use of intoxicating substances among the people
must be mainly attributed the rapid increase of
crime 10 which We have alluded. Laws are
imperative, and the police-in the country dis
tricts-do not find it expedient that they shall be
enforced. And to inquire farther for the causes
which underlie the increased Illegal manufacture
OF the various substances that cause intoxication
for almost everything Of that sort is homemade
they viii be found in a widespread feeling of
contempt for the prohibitory laws, which feeling
has its inspiration in the example of foreigners
and some in authority, and was strengthened and
confirmed By the tone of debate at the last session
of the Legislature. Quos Deus Uuh perdere, prius

Irrigation Schemes.

The drought of the present season in California;
though recently interrupted by q succession of
showers that came too late and which are looked
upon as a misfortune,-has convinced the farmers
that some system of irrigati q is absolutely neces-
sary to secure a full measure of prosperity. They
say that about the same labor and expense in the
way of cultivation are required to produce the fifteen
or twenty bushels per acre which may be harvested
in the great valleys this year that would, with q
plenty of water, ensure from thirty to forty bushels.
The difference. therefore, is nearly a net loss TO grain
growers. Under these circumstances the great ques-
ton of the day is, how to irrigate. The wnter from
the mountain streams must be distributed over the
plains, but the details Of a comprehensive plan of
irrigation are as yet to be determined upon.
The question, remarks the S. f. Call, is one for
practical men to consider. Landowners and grain
growers are better qualified to discuss it than law
yers, physicians or editors. There are many details
to be taken into consideration which would escape
the observation of any but a practical mind. The
facts stand out plainly and clearly in the compre-
hension of all First, there are almost limitless
fields of the best wheat land in the world which
fail to produce full crops at least one year in tnEee
second. there is an abundance of water accessible
to these fields to place them in the highest con-
dition Of production. The question for land-own-
ers and grain growers to consider Is that OF bring
ing this land and water together. 1t can be done
at 4 cost per acre triding when compared to the ad-
ditional value which the land would gain thereby.
The representative landowners of the counties
of Coutra Costa, San Joaquin, Stanislaus aud
MERGED recently held Il meeting at Grayson, at
which the irrigation problem was discussed in all
it's bearings. The Stanislaus NetoS says about five
hundred landowners were present, many of whom
were authorized to speak for the whole community
from which they hailed. The Neus also. notes the
conspicuous absence of large land holders and
land-speculators. The meeting was composed of
practical grain-growers. most of whom own the
ground they till. 1t is from such men that an
equitable solution of the question might be ex-
pected, representing as they do the combined and
sometimes conflicting interests OF landowners and
cultivated. this meeting u committee appointed
at q previous meeting reported a rough draft of a
bill to be submitted to the next Legislature. thel
provisions of which are substantially as follows
