The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Crea-
ton Of Nan, or since the Commence
ment Of the Christian Era.
There never has been,a time when the
healing OF so many different diseases has
been caused by outward application as the
half of the entire population OF the globe re-
sort to the use of ordinary plasters.
DIR. MELvIS'S CAPSICUM Porous PBAsTERS
are acknowledged by all who have used
them, to act quicker than any other plaster
they ever before tried, and thai one OF these
plasters Will do more real service than n hun
dred of the ordinary kind. All other plns-
tiers are slow of action, and require to be
Worn coutinnally to effect a cure; but with
these 1t is entirely different; the instant one
Is applied the patient will feel Its effect.
physicians in all ages have thoroughly
tested aud well know the effect of Capsicum;
ana ithas always been more or less used as a
medical agent for an outward application;
put IL is only OF very recent date that its adj
v%antagcs in u porous plaster have been dis
covered. Being, however. convinced of the
wonderful cures effected by DIR. MELvIS's
CAPSTCUM PoRoUs PLASrERS and their supe-
riority over all other plasters, they now
actually prescribe them, in their practice, for
such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side
and back, and all such cases as have required
the nse OF pfasters or Imminent. After you
have tried other plasters and linimcnts. and
they have failed, and you want n certain
cure, ask your druggist for DIR. MELvIN's
CAPsIcUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly
believe your W convictions of its wonder
iul effects. Although powerful and quick in
its action, you can rely on its safety for the
most delicate person to wear, as IL is free
from lead and other poisonous material COM
monty used in the manufacture of ordinary
p%lasters. One trial is n sufficient guarantee
OF Its merits, and one plaster will sell hun
dreds to your friends.
Ask your druggist for DR.. MARvIS's CAP
siCuM POROUS PLASTER and take no other;
or, on receipt of % cents for one, 81 for five, or
81 for a dozen, they will be mailed. post paid,

her wealth, creates a depression which
is felt by all. and the most notable fea-
ture to US. is the falling eff Of our lum-
Der trade. The mill owner sees the de-
cline in prices and at orce resorts to
the cause Of lis trouble to help him
out of it and keep his profits up to their
former mark. That is he puts China
men to do all tie work in his mill that
it is possible for them to do.
In this self-prescnbed remedy he ex-
hibits about the same judgment as a
man who is feeling very sick from the
effects of spree. and takes some more
rot>gut to afford him temporary relief.
This is question that to explain IN
detail would take too much space in
your valuable aper, even If I have not
already done SO. but 1 have attempted
to point out some os the plainest rea-
sons why we should refuse to employ
Chinese in any capacity whatever. as l
believe their presence is detrimental to
all classes. the capitalist as well as the
Iaboring man.
Should anyone wish to combat my
views. either through the columns Of
your paper or otherwise, I am ready to
discuss tho matter in detail, as it is
matter of public welfare.
Respectfully.

SHASTA, June 25.-E. G. Luttrell and
his wife Anna have resided in Burny

of their marriage years ago. They

charging her with acts Of cruelty. and
specifying that she had accused him Of
incest with their daughter, of illicit in>
tercourse with other women, of attempts

denied. Mrs. Luttrell employed Hay
mond & Allen of Sacramento. who filed
a cross complaint praying for divorce
upon the grounds Of cruel and inhuman
treatment, drunkenness and alleging
the truth of the charges made by her
against her husband. The case was
set for trial before Judge Kosborcugh
at Shasta on the 26th of June. The
case has excited much interest in the
neighborhood in which the parties ro-
side. On the 22d Ut June Mr.. Luttrsll
went to the store of Robert Crews in
Burney valley. Crews, his wife and
children and some other persons were
in the store. Luttrell told Mrs. Crews
he intended to have her as Q witness.
Mrs. Crews replied that she wss not
able to go to Shasta. Luttrell said she

Employment Of Chinese.
NhMCAsTLE, June 2


Ep1roA D1.pA7CH:-I am somewhat
surprised at the inconsistencies viii b
have been published i'll some OF the
Seattle papers. regartiug the Chinese
question, said papers having all along
taken the ground that the employment
of cool;e labor was damaging to our in
terests, and now coming ont with long
but fiImsy arguments in favor of build-
ing the proposed extension of the s 4 v
W. II. with Chinese labor. Offering as
reason that white men carnOt be pros
cured. VIA. excuse can be made for
an asser ion of this kind when thele are
SO many persons in this Territory to-
day, who are out cf employment. are
willing to work and many Of whom
have families dependent upon them for
support?
Neither is it consistent in them to
say that there arc not enough of these
men in our Territory to do the work.
when it is known to every person Who
reads the papers that in California there
are thousands of able-bodied men ~ho
have been compelled to live on the pubs
lie charity. simply because they could
not obtain employment. ut wages suffi-
cient to provide the bare sustenance of
life. Nor can these men be set down
as vagrants or unwilling to work when
it is remembered how they responded to
tho benevolent(? offers OF certain Rail-
road companies to furnish employment
to number of these men 1t 81 per day,
for the offer was no sooner made thai.
the company WAS overrur with apple
cants.
The only excuse which can be offered
is this: these men have not the means
to bring them to this Territory. even if
they were sure of employment on the
day of their arrival. Shall this, then,
be a sufficient reason for US to leave
our own courtrymen to beg, steal or
starvs, while we see the wealthy Chlns>
men organized in comt anies for the
purpose of finding employment for
their working classes and furnishing
them the means of transportation to said
places of employment? 1t seems to me
if we have not humanity enoungh left
to reach forth our hands to help our
weaker brothers. We had best give up
our boasted civilization and leave our
whole country to the management of
the "Heathen Chinee." Let us looK,
now, to the advantages and disadvan
tages of employing Chinese. If white

The Globe diffused through
London the awful intelligence
that the Mayor of Wakefield,
having declared himself teeto-
taller, caused ginger beer to be
set before his guests at his in
auguration banquet. This gin
ger beer has caused such an ef-
ferescence of feeling in the city
"f-Hondon that a deputation has
already waited upon the Lord
Mayor to ascertain his sentl-
ments on the great pop question
and to pop the question to him
whether he will ever think of
saturating his fellow citizens
with this sort of tipple.
A patient in the hospital, in
Beaufort, France, rushed, during
a moment Of insanity, upon a
sister of charity who was bring
ing him his food. He cut her
hand, but was prevented from
stabbing her by q man named
Hamard, whom he stabbed in
the eye. He then entered the
female ward and killed three
women. The rest fed. One
among them had been paralyzed
for several months, but under
the influence of terror was able
to jump from her bed and run.
The man was secured.

TRAVELS OF A LErTER.-From
the N. Y. Tribune we cut the fol

markable journeyings: GA let
ter was mailed in New York
Postoffice on February 6, 1876,
containing ten gold sovereigns,
and directed to Mary Bottom,
Aschueba, Australia. The let
ter was sent to San Francisco
and was returned to New York.
Thence it was sent to London,
to Australia, and to the dead
letter office at Sydney, and at
the request of the sender it was
thence forwarded to Dummu-
CULLEN, New South Wales. Not
delivered there, it went to the
dead-letter office at Melbourne,
thence to the dead-letter Office
at Washington, and finally it
came back to New York, almost
two ) ears after it started. But
