SACRAMENTO, Oct. IA meeting
of unemployed workingmen was
held in front of the postoffice to-
night. At no time was there any
disorder; all was quiet, orderly and
temperate. About 500 were present
during the evening, of which fully
two-thirds were workingmen. The
principal speaker was temperate in
his remarks. but said something
must be done. He deprecated vio-
lence and condemned the incendiary
speakers at San Francisco for their
incendiary utterances, but pitied
them, as speaking more from the
stomach than reason. All referen
ees to Chinese were condemnatory
of their competition in the labor
mart, and were received with great
applause. Many spoke from the
crowd to the chairman, from time to
time in pithy sentences, but no in
flamatory word was uttered. Strong
resolutions were passed, urging
vorkingmen to unite in a working
mems party, and to throw off all fe-
atty to political parties and thus &C.

history of heavy Eastern forgeries
in 1869 of Cooper, who recently ran
away from here. From the account
it appears that Cooper used to be
on the staff of Admiral Lee, of the
Mississippi squadron. He was then
to a clerkship in the navy
department. where he forged navy
acquisitions to the
of S175, 900. He forged the
name of Paymaster R. G. Spalding,
then stationed in Philadelphia, and
r. W. Allen, at Norfolk,
He was caught by accident when at

$40, 900 cashed at the bank in Phila-

tour, having a few hours
before married the daughter of the
U. S. Printer, DeFrees. He was
taken to the Philadelphia navy yard
in irons, tried and sentenced to five
years in the penitentiary, which
term he served out. His marriage
was annulled-the wife he had here

INSANITY ON THE BATTLE
FIELD.--Azlz was one Of the
bravest generals in the Turkish
army. Four days previous to
the battle of Esirdze, near Ras-
grad, he manifested symptoms
of insanity, and threatened to
shoot the first man that dare
speak to him. Three Bashi-Ba-
zouks who had committed some
crime were broaght before him
and he shot them with his re-
velver. The day of the battle
he arrived at the village Of Esirs
DE. The officer of the advance
guard, a Lieutenant, who had
observed Russians ambushed in
the forest, approaching his Gen
eral announced his discovery.
The General replied by drawing
his sword, which he thrust
through the neck of the Lieuten-
ant saying, "What? you are
afraid Of, the Russians?" and he
continued advancing toward the
forest. Suddenly he was assail-
ed by a hail of rifle bullets, but
still he advanced with but one
battalion. The commandant i'm
plored him to retire, when the
General replied: "Colonel, are
you also afraid?" "No," said the
Colonel, "but We are going to
lose our battalion; its existence
is at stake" The balls were
whistling round them, and still
the General advanced with his
single battalion, another follow
ing him up closely. A Russian
battalion at this moment rushed
from the forest, but was com
pletely annihiiated by the Ana
toIians. The Russians then
opened fire from six field pieces
hidden in the forest, and Azlz
ordered forward three only in
reply, forbidding the second bat
talllon to advance. The whole
Of his division was very near,
and a Lieutenant Colonel, seeing
the danger, Immediately sound
ed the clarion for the division to
come up, but the General shot at
him for giving orders without
his. permission. All therefore
remained behind, fearing to risk

wildly over his head to whisk
away the flying bullets, he rode
on to death. His Aid de-Camp

would not give her a mattress.

the woman admitted that she

her unpainted chairs and she
wanted painted ones. And

Breathing Miasma Without Injury

There is no exaggeration in the statement
that thousands OF persons residing from one
years end to another in fever and ague re-
gions on this Continent and elsewhere breath
air more or less impregnant with miasma,
without incuring the disease, simply and
only because they are in the habit of using
lIostetter's Stomach Bitters as a preventative.
1t has frequently happened, and the fact has
been amply attested by the parties them
selves. that persons surrounded on all side-
by neighbors suffering the fortunes of this
shivering and burning plague. have enjoyed
absolute immunity from it, thanks to the pro-
lection afforded by the Bittefs. Nor is that
standard anti-febrile cordia. less etficacious
in remedying than in preventing chills and
fever. bilious remi ttants. and disorders of q
kindred type. Taken between the proxy SINS.
it speedy mitigates their violence, and even
tuaily prevents their recurrence. These facts
convincibgly established by evidence, appeal
with peculiar force TO travellers and sojourn-
ers in malarious districts.

The many friends of Geo. W.

ton he has undergone in having a
cancer removed. This cancer was
situated over the .ugular vein and
was removed successfully by Eli
Jones, NJ. d., of South Strafford,
by the Use of plasters and poultices.
The dangerous location Of the can
Ger forbade the use of the knife
and several physicians who had
been previously consulted, declined
to undertake the case. Mr.. Peters
was under the care of DR.. Jones
seventeen days and during that time
the cancer was wholly removed and
as the last pieces came out nothing
but a thin covering was left over
the jusular vein, and this was SO
thin that the pulsations of the ar.
terry could plainly be seen. This
has added one more to the list of
successful cures of this kind made
by DIR. Jones. Mr.. Peters is rapid
ly regain;ng his strength, and says
that "Old Pete" is a hard customer
to kill, and isn't "always wrong"
