DIED-In Grayson county, Texas,
August 10Th, 1881, j. d. Brown, son
of Mr.. John Brown, Of this county.
Nearly two years ago he married the
daughter of Mr., Gus. Knox, of our
town. Soon after their marriage the
bride and groom left for Texas, the
latter never to return, the former to
come back with a broken heart. 1t
was sad to read letter written by the
wife to her mother, giving an account
of her husbands death. "He was so
good and kind it was hard to say,
Thy will be done" He was ready
to die-was not alone in his last hours.
Jesus, the one whom he had tried to
serve, did not leave him alone. That
grace without which one cannot die in
peace, was his to enjoy. The wife
whom he loved can no longer lean on
his strong arm for protection.
God bless the lonely mother and
weeping widow. May the son that has
been given her prove an honor to his
fathers name, and at last may the
family circle be unbroken in heaven.

A Leading Professor Speaking Of
sensible People.

DR.. s., the prominent Eastern
medical lecturer, says: Every day
sensible people come to me complain
ing Of their health being broken down.
The answers to my inquiries always
are-what l surmise- natures laws
have been totally dlsregarded; conse-
quently the blood, the stream of life
becomes contaminated-and as re-
suit of this blood poisoning, find
dyspepsia and disordered functions of
the heart, nervous debility, and other
impaired organic portions, often verg-
ing on paralysis. In order to keep
the digestive organs in proper health
and strength, | and my friends in the
profession have recommended Browns
Iron Bitters-they act so mildly and
soothingly, never leaving any unpleas-
ant after-effects, strengthening the
organs Of digestion, and permanently
removing every symptom of i'll
health, languor, and debility. No
remedy in the East gives such good
satisfaction as Browns Iron Bitters,
and all druggists can procure it for
you. Don't be persuaded to use a
substitute. This remedy contains no
alcohol and is the only preparation of
Iron that does not blacken the teeth.

Money is the universal necessity, and none but a
cynic fool will affect to despfse It. Mr.. Abram
Ellsworth. of Port Even, Ulster county, N. Y. had
realized this truth. His disease involved the whole
of his thghbone, and the suffering man looked for
ward not without apparent reason, to death as his
only deliverer. His family physician refused to
putate the limbasserting that the operation would
kill the patient the spot. DR.. David Kennedy, of
Rondout N. Y, who was consulted, held different
opinion, and amputated the limb. The Doctor then
administered freely his great Blood Specific FAVOR
ITE REMEDY to afford tone and strength to the sys-
tem prevent the return of the disease, and Mr. Els
worth remains to this day in the bloom of health
This gentleman's disease was the offspring of foul
blood, and Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY purified
the blood restored to him the power to
enjoy his life. Are you suffering from any disease
traceable to the same cause? Try Favorite Remedy.

/. JoAn G. Whittier, was sung to the tune OF Aul
lg Syne,', at the banquet of the American Hort
tural Society, In Boston, on Friday evening last:
change.
Painter of the fruits and flowers,
We own Thy wise design,
Whereby these human hands of ours
May share the works of Thine.
Apart from Thee, we plant in vain
The root and sow the seed;
Thy early and Thy later rain,
Thy sun and dew we need.
Our toll is sweet with thankfulness,
Our burden is our boon;
The curse of Earth's gray morning is
The blessing of Its noon.
Why search the wide world everywhere
For Eden's unknown ground?
That garden ofthe primal pair
May never more be found.
But, blest by Thee, our patient toll
May right the ancient wrong,
And give to every cline and soil
The beauty lost SO long.
Our homestead flowers and fruited trees
May Eden's orchard shame;
We taste the tempting sweets of these,
Like Eve, without her blame.
And north and south and east and west,
The pride of every zone,
The fairest, rarest, and the best
May all be made our our own.
Its earliest shrines the young world sought
In hill-groves and in bowers;
The fttest offerings thither brought
Were Thy own fruits and flowers.
And still with reverent hands we Gull
Thy gifts, each year renewed;
The good is always beautiful,
The beautiful is good.

CALIFORNIA LETTER.


formerly Of Boise county, it was
agreed that / should write a letter to
the WORLD for the enlightenment Of
you mountaineers. / write from the
somewhat mythical city Of Santa Rosa.
Mr.. Noonan is here engaged in the
meat business; has the incest market
lin the place, and is having q good
trade, as he deserves to. Santa Rosa
is about so miles from San Francisco,
ii northwesterly direction. It is the
county seat Of Sonoma county; has
about $500 inhabitants, owing to the
inability Of most Of them to get away,
and house room enough to acconnmo-
date 5000 or 5000 persons. The
county is claimed by the inhabitants
to be the best fruit and grape pro-
ducing section of the State How
ever this may be, the soil Immediately
surrounding the "city" is black,
mncky loan, and, therefore, cold and
unproductive. Another popularity of
the soil here, and generally over the
State, is that most of it is cultivated
under cover-covered by mortgages.
The prices of land here range (offief-
ed at private sale) from $50 to $3.50
per acre, and the sales are surprising

From the Yankee Fork Herald

on the Charles Dickens lode, and from
Jordan creek the location extends 1000
feet east into the mountain. The tun-
mel, which was started fifteen feet
above the bed Of the creek, is in so
feet, and shows an S-toot ledge of ore
the whole distance that assays very
high IF the ledge holds its width to
the Charles Dickens there are 200 900
tons of ore in sight. The veip is very
solid, encased III fine walls, and the
! dip very regular. There is enough
gold and silver in the Charles Dickens
lode to pay off the national debt The
Pilot is in splendid locality for work
ing, there being abundance Of timber
III close proximity to the mine, and a
large stream of water crossing the To-
cation, where there are also splendid
sites for mills. From all appearances
the vein is at least II feet wide so
feet further back The ore in the face
ol the tunnel is very rich, assaying
from $50 to $1,000 per ton. The sur
face of the mine Is well prospected,
holes having been sunk on it at inter-
walls of 100 feet to the Charles Dickens
claim. There is enough ore in sight
in Norton Hill to insure the growth Of
Bonanza to large and prosperous city
in the near future, and that it will
continue as such for great many
years. Although great deal has been
said Of the richness and extent of the
mines of the Yankee Fork, their i'm
mense value is not fully known abroad.
The whole truth will not be believed
by mining men who have not seen
them. On the west side of Jordan,
and south of Red Rock gulch, is the
Paradise location.

The Juliet, owned by John Gil,ner
is looking frst-rate. The shaft is now
down 81 feet, where there is q 2-foot
vein of splendid smelling ore. Work
is being pushed ahead developing it.
The first ore discovered in the camp
| is on Ramshorn Hill. The mine has
been christened the Capital, and the
ore taken from it is good A tunnel
has been ran Is feet on the vein, and
some nice specimens were taken from
it. Some of the assays were as high
as $500 and $400 per ton. A tunnel
is now being driven to tap the ledge
at greater depth. The ledge is 2-feet
wide.
The usual force of men are at work
on the Ramshorn, and ii good deal ol
rich ore is being taken out.
The Hood, which is being worked
by the smelter company, has a large
body of good ore in sight, which is be
, ing extracted.
The smelter is ready to start, and a:
soon as the snow disappears from thu
mountains, SO that ore can be haulet
to it, smelling will be commenced
The snow at the highest mine is no
over 2-feet deep. 1t will only be
short time before things will open uI
in good shape, when large amour
of work will be done. Bay Horse vii
