California Wine.

We hear from Mr.. Chas. Krug, of
st. Helena, that the wine business
Of California was never in u health.
ier condition. 1t is true that prices
are low, but every gallon OIL hand
is demanded by purchasers, which,
in the end, will improve prices.
With this view Mr.. Krug is holl.
ing stock of near 10000 gallons,
a good part of which is two years
old. He has offers for much of his
stock, and will deplete 1t as the
weather improves, holding enough
to keep up with Eastern orders,
which are constantly growing in
Importance. Mr.. Krug is very
hopeful of the future of the busi-
ness, which he was not last year. as
his cellars were then full and no de.
mand for the wine. Suddenly, and
somewhat unaccon>tahly. u de.
mand has come winch places the
business beyond peradventure.
Probably the new demand is in
consequence ofgreat concessions in
prices by manufactures, which
will introduce the wine and make
it u necessity hereafter at better
rates.-Napa Reporter.

Supervisor Morton, the following
report, presented by the District
Attorney, was adopted:
To the Honorable the Board of .Su.
pervisors of Los angeles County:
GENTLEMEN: I find, from an ex-
animation of the claim presented

Code provides that, "The Board of
Supervisors must not hear or con-
slider any claim in favor of an in
dividual against the county, unless
an account properly made out,
giving all items of the claim, duly
verified as to its correctness, and
that the amount claimed is justly
due, is presented to the Board with
in n Vaar affar tho Last itan, nf ha
account accrued,u

decline to consider the claim pre-

Argentiferous.

We have been stuffed with most
wonderful stories of the late dis.
cOveries in what is called the
Tombstone District, to the south
and east of Tucson. The following,
however, We have winnowed from
what we are Inclined to think
chaff, and which, being from unin.
terested and reliable sources, we
present to our readers.
Richard Gird, E. l.. ScheffeIin,
and A. e. Scheffelin have bonded
ten mines in that district for $780,
900. One mine was bonded tue
latter part of April to J. II. White
of San Francisco for $4,000. and
the other about two weeks since to
Col. G. w. Tozer, for 100000, after
three previous offers, each of
which would make the mouths of
most prospectors water. Col. II.
paid 5 900 cash and is to pay the
remaining $50, 900 within forty five
days, neither party to do any work
on the claim in the meantime.
The mines have been examined
by Col. Tozer, Mr.. Jacobs (Senator
Jones's mining Mentor,) John Has
kell and other mining men, all of
whom coincide in pronouncing the
discovery the most remarkable Oh
the surface within their knowledge.
The mines lie between strata of
limestone and granite and give evil
dence of being large permanent
veins. The average of over 100 as
says by Prof. Rickard and Mr..
Brown from all parts OF the claim
give over $500. Armed parties are
on the war.path for other claims
near by, and large crop of law
suits and crime, seems imminent.
On confirmation we will give fur
ther particulars that have reached

EVENING SESSION.
SAN FRANCISCO, June {
THE PREVENTION OF A TERRIBLE
DISASTER,

No disorders, excepting the most dead.
ly forms of lung disease, involve such a
tremendous destruction of organic tissue
as those which fasten upon tho kidneys.
such maladies, when they become
chrOnic-and none are so liable to as
sumo that phase-0ompletely wreck the
system. To prevent this terrible disaster
recourse should be had, upon the first
manifestation of trouble, to Hostetter's
Bitters, which experience has proved to
be highly effective as means OF impart-
ing tone and regularity to the organs Of
uri iLatiOn, as we'll as ~ the liver, stom-
ach and bowels. Another beneficial re-
suit of this medicine, naturally conse-
duent upon its diuretic action, is the
elimination from the blood of Impurities
which beget rheumatism, gOut, dropsy,
and other maladies. BY Increasing the
activity Of the kidneys, 1t augments the
depurative efficiency of those organs,
which are most important outlets for the
escape of such impurities.

of them stand over six feet high. There is
not a bit of wheat in the patch.
