A happy surprise it was to Mr.. A. R.
Norton, of Bristol, Conn, when A-THLoPHoRos
put him on his feet, and sent him cheerfully
about his business, Let him tell his own story:
"About three weeks ago ] was taken
with a severe crick in the back. For four days
Twas unable to turn in bed without help, and
when lifted up could not stand on my feet. Twas
induced to try ArHLoPHoRos, after all the usual
remedies failed In 20 minutes after taking the
first dose 1 could bear my weight upon my feet.
In two days l was able to get about and attend
to business. In two other cases which have
comet to my knowledge its use has been attended
with the same results"
A poor man in Philadelphia had to Dor
row q dollar to buy q bottle of ATHIoPHORos.
On account OF his poverty his name shall remain
asecret. He had suffered terribly from Rheu-
matsm. He gratefully writes:
81 took my frst dose Tuesday afternoon,
and on Wednesday, after but seven doses, had
not a sharper severe ache left Then reduced
the dose ope-half and took the remainder of the
bottle. / was able to be steady at work till Sat
urday, when 1 took a severe cold and was un-
able to use my left hand. l purchased another
bottIS and by bedtime l found relief. The
medicine is all you claim for it,"
Investigate ATHLoPHoRosal all you please!
Find all the fault you choose with it and
yet the fact remains, that it is doing what
no other medicine ever could do for Rheu-
matism and Neuralgia.
If you cannotg get ATHLoPHoRos of your drug
g1st, we Will send 1t express paid, on receipt OF
regular prtce-one dollar per bottle. Weprefer
that you buy it from your druggist, but If he
hasn't 1t, do not be persuaded to try something
else, but order at once from US as directed.

CLEARLY PRESENTED.

In another column of this issue we pre-
sent an editorial from the Marysville AP-
peal that very clearly makes apparent the
vital interest of this people in the early
completion of the California and Oregon
Railroad. The road it is not at all likely
will be continued on to the State line for
several years if its means of credit are
withdrawn. Necessarily the work of con-
struction will call for less employment of
labor in that case, and industrial interests
will suffer considerably. But if the extern
sion OF time asked for is granted, there can
be obtained the necessary credits to push
the work vigorously, and there will thus
be greater employment and correspond
ingly greater disbursement of money. OF
course, these are purely selfish reasons
The greater ones are that we need speedy
through connection with Oregon by rail,
just as San Francisco has by water. We
have a legitimate claim to the trade of
Northern California, and it should not be
diverted to Portland. Whatever consider
ations justified aid to the road in the first
instance, still remain. The completion of
the road and the extension of the grant
will enhance the value Of every acre of
land adjacent, and largely increase the rev.
enue of the Government derivable from
the public lands. 1t will open up early
section of country where there has been
much investment made on the good faith
of the building of the road. These enter
prises will be crippled by delay, and delay
must follow the withdrawal of the means
of credit. These are but very few of the
reasons that might be urged, and that we
have heretofore recited, but others will
present themselves to the thinking, and
are sufficient to Justify the petition of the
company, even in the face of the strong
sentiment that prevails in favor of the
sweeping forfeiture of all unearned land
grants.

TIE RAINS.

We have had most gratifying rains for
six days. The precipitation has been &C.
corded US in the best manner, and every
drop has been saved to the soil. While
this is cause for thankfulness and congrat-
ulation, and relieves the strain which the
absence of rain had already put upon trade
and industry, it is well not 10 be over
confident. The figures show that the sea-
son is still short in rainfall 3. 10 inches as
compared to the season of 1852 8, and |. 50
behind that of 1851 ,, and over II inches
short OF the season OF 1850 l. The last
severe dry season gave us a total precipit4-
ton of 6.52 inches up to the corresponding
date of this year, or IL more than we have
had ID date this season. It is true that
the rainfall has not been so copious in the
region OF Sacramento as north and south OF
US, bat the proportions and comparison,
made are good and prevail for about all
the agricultural sections OF the State. 1t
is also true that in not few seasons OF
shortage in rainfall in January, we have
had ample rain in February and March.
Bat upon such mere speculation we cannot
place dependence. We must take the sea.
son as it is, and as such it is not one from
Using full supply OF rain, inasmuch as at
this date it is very much behind low
average.

the unknown officials whom the jury IN
der its oath declare have been corrupted.
Having it in their power to ruin them, YET
it appears that these men whom the law
condemns have withstood even the inquisi'
ton of the Grand Jury-room, and have
kept faith with those who bled them 1t
is an old saying tina. gamblers honor is
very dear to him, and perhaps 1T is true
that fever men of that class violate the bond
of their word than of most other classes.
Certainly for years they have kept faith
with those who have levied blackmail upon
them in this city, while at the same time
6enouncing them and deapising the per-
jured officials whom they have found will
/ ing to be corrupted.
We may not say, perhaps, how fsG such
state of affairs as is complained ef by the
Grand Jury Of this county prevails in other
communities, but the belief obtains, and
with reasonableness, that matters are not
greatly different in any community on the
coast where gambling is carried on.
Nor do we do violence to reason in ex-
pressing the thought that there never will
be any material change in the sentiment of
community toward gaming so long as
gambling in any form is tolerated that
is by law expressly condemned. That is
to say, no community can consistently
and sincerely voice its will in the laws pro-
hibitory of gaming, and at tae same time
emile apprOvingly upon gambling at
church and charity fairs. and entertain
ments such as have been witnessed within
the week in this city, for instance, and are
boldly prosecuted throughout the State in
the name of religion. Let US be honest
with ourselves we cannot with seriousness
frown upon the faro bank in its upstairs
retreat, while we refuse to condemn the
. open advertising in newspapers OF thieving
lottery schemes which do not afford the
victim even the guarantee of a gamblers
honor or the unblushing peddling and sale
of lottery tickets from the Royal Havana
down to the rattle presided over by beauty
for a holy end.
Indeed, if there are any degrees in this
illicit business, we are inclined to think
, that the natural propensity to gaming is
more encouraged, and more dangerously So
by the devices at which we wink, thar
those we drive to holes and corners. II
neither case can the end justify the means
but attempted justification of the end by
the means is as tolerable in the one as il
the other case. 1t is very foolish and very
weak to split hairs on this matter. Il
, gaming is bad, the lottery is equally so; il
gaming is demorslizDg. the church rattle
and the charity roulette table are more So
There can be no possible condemnation o
the one and approval of the other. They
J are all vicious and should alike be sup
pressed

GUAYMAs, January 3lst.-From reports

LARGE LAND SALES. The San Fran.
cisco Alta says:
During the past year one of the most en-.
couraging signs OF the time was the amount
Of land sold to actual settlers in different
portions of the State. Not only private
dealers found a ready market for their
lands, but the Central Pacific Railroad sold
more than in any previous year. They sold
379, 7S7 acres, the greater portion coming
for the first time under cultivation. Ooe
firm bought $1,000 acres. W. II. Mills,
land agent for the company, is in receipt
of numerous letters from residents Of
Northern Illinois, Minnesota and Wiscon'
sin, inquiring about the climate and capac
ity Of this State for immigrants, and it i;
apparent that they are thinking OF leaving
those iuhospitable regions. The continued
prosperity of this State will no doubt in
crease this flow of immigration and the de-
mand for desirable lands.
