IN TIE WHOLE HISTORY OF
MEDICINE.

No preparation has ever performed
such marvellous cures, or maintained so
wide a reputation as AYERS CHERRY
PEcTaRA RAJ, which is recognized as the
world's.remedy for alldiseases of the throat
and lungs. Its long continued series of
wonderful cures in all climates has made
it universally known as a safe and relia-
bic agent to employ. Against ordinary
colds, which are the fore runners of more
serious disorder, it acts speedily and surely
relieving suffering, and often say,
ing life. The protection it affords, by its
use in the throat and lung disor-
ders of children, makes it an invaluable
remedyto bekept always on hand in
every home. No person can afford to be
without it, and those who have once used
it never will. From their knowledge Of its
composition aud effects, Physicians use
the CHERRY PICTORIAL extensively in
their practice, aad Clergymen recommend
it. 1t is absplutely certain in its. RENE.
effects, and will always cure where
cures are possible.

A cAsl: or INSANITY.

A sad casa is that of Mrs. NJ. l.. j. Flyc,
the occupant Of a small house on Capital
street, between Third aud Fourth streets.
For some time pas, she has exhibited symp-
tons OF an unsound mind, and last week
her insanity became so apparent that she
was placed under the charge Of Sheriff Ba-
ker. who employed nurses TO guard her and
care for her at her own residence. Her case
will be brought before Probate Judge Con
glcton next Saturday morning. hnd after
being adjudgcd insane by competent au-
thority, she will m ! -" to the Minnesota
asylum. Mis- i e.. lived on Capital
street for a ye,.'., ny and is better known
as Mira Watkins, her. former name. On
the 10Th Of October she was married to l..
w. FIVE, that individual being coerced into
the matrimonial alliance by an action
brought against Linn for seduction. The
easiest way out of the trouble was marriage
and he accepted the alternative, but has
not sinced lived with his wife. A child
was born a few months after the marriage,
and this and several other children resulting
from her first marriage have been supported
by Mrs. Flyc, by hard work. 1t is necessary
to provide for her removal, as she is becom-
ing difficult to manage and is even violent
at times. The county has taken charge OF
the children and the insane woman.

SALE OF TIMBER LANDs.-In view of
the possibility that Secretary Schurz
might advise the President to veto the
bill sent to him last week which provides
for the sale of timber lands in California,
Nevada, Oregon and Washington Torrito-
ry, Senators Sargent, Booth and Mitchell,
Representatives Page, Wigginton, Wren
and Williams, and Delegate Jacobs
called upon the President in n body, to
urge its signature. Horace Davis, who
had to attend committee meeting, and
Luttrell, who was sick, authorized their
colleagues to express their entire concur
renee in the purpose of the visit. Sargent
as spokesman for the party, briefly
explained the provisions of the bill, and
stated the unanimous opinion of the
Pacific coast delegation concerning the
need for its enactment. The President,
in response, said he had not yet examined
the measure, but in view OF its having
been carefully examined by two commit
tees and passed by both houses without
opposition, and Of its being unanimously
approved by the representatives of the
loca! interests involved, he would certainly
not feel at liberty to withhold his signature,
unless very strong reasons TO the contrary
should be presented, of which he was not
informed. The delegation retired feeling
confident that the President will approve
the bill, even if otherwise counseled by
the Secretary ofthe Interior, which is
doubtful.

They represent the most intelligent and
cultured of our people, and as in our
judgment, such elements should control

they should receive a backing which

the following sound advice We will
repeat what we have, heretofore, in sub
stance, often said in these columns, to
those who contemplate coming to Cali
fornia If you have money with which
to 60 into business when you arrive
come. If you have means TO purchase
land and live on until you can realize
from your crops come. But if you
are entirely without means, and ex-
pect to find some elegant situation on
reaching the State-don't come, for
there are thousands of this class already
here, unemployed, walking the streets
of our large towns and cities looking
for such situations. 1t requires but a
very small sum to start with, for man
who is full Of energy, and determined
to succeed.

Nor OF THE RETURNING KGND.-In
the course OF the debate in the United
States Senate on the amendment to the
Bill placing General Shields on the re-
tired list-sad amendment being offered
by Sargentto to defeat the bill and providing
for placing General Grant on the lvtred
list also-Ben. Hill, the Democratic Sen
ator from Georgia, paid Grant the follow
ing deserved compliment:
Hill said any man and every man who
on any occasion hazards his life in the de-
iense OF his honest convictions had his re-
spect. Therefore he respected General
Grant and he respected General Shields.
He would vote to place General Shields
on the retired list, but he would not vote
to place General Grant upon it. His
greatest objection to Grant was that he
would not retire. [Laughter.] If he
would agree to retire upon the passage of
this bill he would vote for it, though
whether the Senators on the other side
would agree to it or not he did not know.
Some Of them on that side would be very
glad If he would retire renewed laughterl, -,
but he was not ono of the retiring set; he
never retired. He nevel would retire and
the Senators could not make him retire
[Great laughter.l If Grant had one quail
ity which distinguished him it was his
directress. He did not hang in ambus
Gaze. If this was an attempt to use Grant
to kill off General Shields he did not
believe Grant would countenance it if he
was here to-day. IT the time should ever
ceme when misfortune should overtake
Grant he (liilD would cheeriuly vote for
any bill to relieve him, but until that
time let him rest.
