These things seem to be greatl,

These troubles can arise from bu,

Is now admitted that the region OF
the lower body Is the prime source
OF most physical ills. When the
kidneys become diseased the blood
becomes poisoned, and all the trcu.

The truth is. people are not well;

THE NAVAL MILITIA.

It had been intended to tow the Marion from Mare Island to this port and after mooring her alongside of the Camanche remove the stores and coal from the monitor to the Marion, then moor the last-named vessel to a berth at Folsom street wharf. This idea was, however, abandoned. and the Ca manche was lowed up to the island and there the transfer will be made. after which the Marion will steam down to this harbor. Owing to the illness of the Governor, who is commander-in-ch chief of the land and the naval forces, it has been decided not to bring the Marion down until Jubilee week as it is de- sired that the Governor should be on board. After the vessel shall have been docked all the material now in the ar mory on East street will be transferred to the vessel.
 Captain Turner, commanding the Naval Militia, expresses himself as well pleased with the order that takes the militia out of the jurisdiction of the division commander of the Ma tional Guard of this State. He ex- pressed the opinion that a commander of land forces is not the proper person to command naval force, for the req son that landsman is not up to the requirements of naval force. He is of the opinion that in the National Guard the land and the sea forces should be as distinct as are the army and the navy of the United States.

THE CHINESE NEW YEAR
Preparations Being Made for It's Celebration, but There is Doubt
 as to It's DOte.

There is considerable doubt in China town as to when the Chinese New Year begins, and on this account it is prob able that the celebration will not be so general as has been the usual custom in years past. The merchants differ in their ideas of the day, some claiming that January 20and others that the Fist is the one to be celebrated, and from information given out at the Consuls house they are all wrong, and January 2 is the Chinese New Years day.
 The Consul has recently had some correspondence with the Minister at Washington in regard to the matter and the discovery has been made that heretofore the wrong day has been eel ebrated by the Mongolians, and the correction will be made this year. In China New Years Day falls on the 22d for this year, and the effort is to be made to have that day celebrated by the Chinese all over the world.
 How the mistake in the day came about originally is hard to say, but one explanation given is that the first Chinese who came here became mixed

THE THIRD BRIGADE.

The signal corps of the Third Brigade | held its annual meeting on the evening of the 4th inst. Various new commit | tees were appointed for the year, and J. w. Gee was unanimously reelected clerk of the corps.
 The report of Lieutenant Fred L.
 Martin, commanding the corps, shows that it stands within one of its full 1 quota of one officer and twenty enlist ed men; the report presents the corps work during the past year, an account of its camp in Summit Valley, the oc-
 cupation of Diablo, Marysville Buttes, Vacaville, Auburn, Elk Grove, Antelope
 and other points as signal stations dur ! ing the year, also other matters of in-
 terest to the corps. It is a very com | plete document and comprehensive as
 well.
 l Watkins that the corps inaugurate a series of bicycle field days met the hearty indorsement of Major w. w. 1 Douglass, signal officer of the brigade.
 After the matter had been fully eX- plained it was decided that the corps should hold it's first field day on Sun | day next, when the members will go out on bikes carrying flags, heliographs i and other signaling apparatus. As Corporal Cosby is the only one of the corps who has never ventured on the silent steed he has been detailed, much to his satisfaction, to attend to the
 commissary wagon for that day A committee was named to select signal stations and run" for the outing. 1 At the close of the meeting there
 was an informal smoker, a short pro-
 gramme of song and music and a sol diers' banquet. There were present at
 the meeting Colonel John w. Guthrie of the Second Infantry, Major Doug
 lass and Scott F. Ennis, As
 semblyman from Sacramento and at one time member of
 couragingly of the corps, it's work and 1 its prospects.
 AS predicted in this department the
 contest for the lieutenant -colonelcy of | the Sixth Regiment of Infantry on
 last Wednesday was an exciting one,
 and it was long after midnight before the decisive ballot was east AS al-
 ready stated. the contest was a sec i tional one, for the reason that the election of a lieutenant colonel carried i with it the possibility of a change of
 regimental headquarters if Colonel | s. $. Wright intends to carry out his
 purpose of resigning in spring. If he
 does then Lieutenant Colonel Cook of
 Stockton, who was elected after many ballots by majority of one, may be i chosen colonel, and he will remove the headquarters from Fresno, at which point they are now located, back to | Stockton. where they were for many
 years prior to the election of Colonel l Wright about a year ago. But this
 may be all upset, for Fresno wants to
 retain the headquarters, and there is
 a possibility that those who favor
 Fresno will put in the field in case
 there is an election for colonel, a
 member of the guard in opposition to
 the lieutenant colonel, who will be
 favorable to maintaining headquarters | at Fresno.

In their dates, perhaps on account of the change in time between here and China, and by oversight or neglect the error was never remedied. In spite of the Iact that they are not quite sure which day is New Years the people are making preparations for the holi- cay, and the outcome of the muddle Will probably be that each individual Will celebrate on the day which he thinks the proper one.
 AS yet no order has been issued from the Chief of Police in regard to the shootlng of firecrackers, but it is thought that form of celebration will De permitted this year. although it was pronlolted last year. Everything seems to be quiet among the highbinder so- cletles, and no rumor of trouble has reached the ears of the police, so it is expected that the holiday will pass without any sensations.
