A Tried Remedy for Biliousness,

Those who suffer from disorder or mac
ton of the liver will never get the upper
hand of the unruly organ SO long as they
use such irrational remedies as blue pill,
calomel and podophylin. But from the
tried and popular medicine, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they may expect relief
with certainty of obtaining it. The in
1uence of the Bitters upon the great hillary
gland is direct, powerful and speedily felt.
The relief afforded is not spasmodic, but
complete and permanent. The sallowness
of the skin furred appearance ofthe tongue
indigestion. costiveness, headache, nausea,
pains through the right side and shoulder !;
in fact, every accompaniment of the obsti-
nate complaint are entirely and promptly
removed by a course of this inestimable
medicine, in behalf of which testimony is
constantly emanating from every quarter
and from all classes of society.

There was a large number of Eastern
ladies and gentlemen, in company with n
number of SonCma county people, passing
through the California market. Many were

plays of fruits met their eyes. Here con-

to the sunny fruits from San Diego These
melons were raised near pumpkin" said an
Eastern granger, whose breast fairly blazed
with decorations. They are too large"
" How about those peaches, apples, grapes
and figs have they been raised near pump
kins, too?n Well. sir; am astonshed
not only myself, sir, but every visitor from
the States who has not seen these things be-
fore is also astonished." What are those?r
said o lady at my elbow, pointing to some
large eggplants among the fruits. Some of
them would weigh three or four pounds
"Those, madam, are California blue figs"
Aren't they wonderful :" then, changing
her tone, how they shrink up when they
are dried" Here are beets that weigl 40
pounds, squasheS that weigh lbs pounds,
ten-pound carrots; but ladies and gentle
men from the shores of Maine, l am sorry
to inform you that there is one fruit we
cannot raise What is that?n they all
exclaimed. "The common Yankee pump

fact is, the vines grow so fast that they

say that after that they were prepared for
anything.-S. T. Cor. SoHoma Democrat.

Transportation and Markets.

Cheap and rapid transportation IS Of the ut
most Importance; 20 those whoare both producers
ana consumers. 1t chelpens all that he buys
and enhances tie price OF all he produces. The
"LAEGF0RD COLOSY" Is most advantage
ously situated in this respect. u IS between two
railroads that both connect with steamboats,
that run from Tie Sacramento and San Joaquin
points to the Golden Gate. This gives the cheap
est freight and passenger rates for the distance
or this Coast. The markets for oil kinds of pro-
ducts are good. The Caaneries, Wineries and
Fruit Dealers take al! the Fru!. raised at highly
remuneratiye prices. There is an unlimited
