—Ir e x c e l l e n t in t e r e s t r u l e s - We condense the following from the Owyhee Avalanche. The Beecher trial runs up to nearly 150 days. Tlio San Francisco Chronicle denounces the action of the California ltepublican State Convention in the most unmeasured terms. Five cars of United States troops passed Winnemucca for California on the 16th inst. Part of them were the First Cavalry, en route from St. Louis to San Francisco. The Nevada City Transcript is grumbling because the capitalists of San Francisco pre fer investing in the silver mines of the State of Nevada to the gold bearing quartz mines of Nevada county, in that State. It is estimated that the value of alL the gold in circulation throughout the world is about $5,000,000,000. Not even enough to pay the national debt of France. The prospect of annexing the rich min ing provinces of Northern Mexico was not killed by the failure of the Mexican Senato rial excursion, but is being carefully nour ished by the original projectors ot the plan. A Nevada sinner who has just returned from the San Francisco revival, astonished the waiter the other day by calling out for Hammend eggs. At Bunke’’ Hill the loss of the British in killed and wounded was at least 1,045, while the whole loss of the Americans was 145 killed and missing and 304 wounded. There are lots of -people'leaving Kansas now. The people iu Jackson and Cass counties are driving their cattle to Iowa for grass. The hoppers have eaten all the grass. There are plenty of people suffering lor something to eat. It is useless to deny the fact longer that Chicago is ahead of any other American city—in lying, if nothing eise. It is reported that a gold-bearing quartz ledge has been struck in the Southern Pa cific Railroad tunnel at Tehachepa Pass. News of the murder by the Sioux of Wm. Lee and Geo. Ecl.ley, wiio left Bozeman over a year ago, to “ wolf” in the lower country! lately reached Hunter Springs. A mammoth turtle was captured on Ty- bee beach, near Savannah, Ga., recently, tour feet and eleven inches long, two feet ten inches broad, and one foot eight inches through, weighing SCO pounds, and contain ing 500 or 600 eggs. A young man by the name of Frank Wil der, a gambler by profession, who resided for a short time in California, is in jail in Cincinnati, charged with murder iu the first degree. Monday’s Sacramenio Pee said: On tho overland train which arrived to-day were a gentleman and wife from Indianapolis, In diana, named Person. Tho gentleman i3 ninety five years of age and his wife eighty- five, both hale and hearty. They will resido near Sacramento with a son. “ Old Bill Allen.” Governor of Ohio, was in the United States Senate in 1834. He is the only survivor of the fifty-two Senators then serving. He said to an interviewer re cently, “ If I am called to the government new, as God is my searcher and anchor, I shall administer it honestly and independen tly. John S. Collins, post trader at Fort Lar amie, has been appointed Secretary of the Sioux commission, in place oi Joe W. Dwyer, A choir of 100 voices is being organized at Salt Lake, Utah, to add to the nrise and con fusion produced by the-big organ in the Ta bernacle. General Boynton was a war correspondent during a greater portion of the war. His criticism upon Sherman’s Memoirs are piti less and scathing. A dispatch from Baltimore states that the Baltimore and Ohio directors have satitied the agieement with the Pennsylvania rail road, and their difficulties are settled. Vice President Wilson, Speaker Biane, and Annie Louise Cary, together with other passengers on board tiie New York and Bos ton express, recently narrowly escaped des truction. The train ran off the track. Speaker Blaine was confined to his room for a few days in consequence of bruises. Dr. E. J. Kirkscey, of Columbus, Ga., late surgeon of the Confederate army, has accepted a position on tho medical staff of the Egyptian Kaedive, and will leave this country in July. The London Syndicate will next month make another call on trie Treasury Depart ment for an additional number of new Uni ted States bonds, the money market being favorable to such investment. The Salt Lake Tribune says: “ In the past month, twenty-five nasty polygamists in Sevier county have married a hundred and twenty-five women.” The Mollychunkemunk is the euphonious title of a new pleasure steamer recently launched on a lake in Maine. A terrible tragedy occured in Clay county Missouri, a few days ago. Four brothers named Craven, became involved in a quar rel which ended with one of them being shot through the heart, another seriously wounded by a bullet, and a third cut nearly to death by a hoe. COE. JOSEPH E. MEEK. In the death of Col. Joseph L. Meek, who departed this life Sunday morning last, at his residence near Hillsboro, Washington county, one of the landmarks of Oregon’s pioneer days disappears. He came to Wes tern Oregon in 1840, from the Rocky Moun tains, where lie had spent the previous fif teen years as a trapper aud hunter. In 1847 he was chosen to represent to the gov ernment at Washington tho condition and want3 of the infant settlements ia this coun try, and made the trip across the continent in the winter of 1847-8. If his performan ces at the national capitol are-narrated cor rectly in Mrs. Victor’s “ Biver of the WTest,” of which he was the hero, he was such a rep resentative as no other community ever had Upon the organization o f the Tenitoria] R.

CIRES THE WORST PAINS ------------- The Palace Hotel, now nearing comple tion in San Francisco, is the largest hotel structure in the world. It covers 36,250 | square feet of ground and is seven stories high; 21,661,000 bricks were used in its walls; 3,000 tons of east and wrought iron, and 4,561,524 feet o f lumber and timber. It contains 1,060 windows, 377 of which are bay-windows; 962 room's, none of less s,ze than 16x16 feet, and 3a8 Oatli-rooms. It contains over three miles of halls; there are five passenger elevators, and seven grand stairways; there are 4,540 doors; 9,000 gas- burners. and thirty-miles of gas and water- pipe. It requires 50,000 yards, or twenty- eight miles of carpet. It can accommodate 1,200 guests, besides 360 servants and em ployers. And, best of all, there is not a dark or window-less room iu the house. There will unquestionable be a lively contest at the forth-coming State election in California. One of the leading Bepubli- can papers spits upon the ticket headed by Phelps, and Gorham and Sargent come in for a shave of denunciation for the part they are represented to have taken in making- common cause with the “ Dolly Yarden” or Booth party. ‘ Tis wondrous” strange how things do change. Only a few short months ago, Booth was the “ coming man” with the Independent and a portion of the Demo cratic press of the East. Now it is reported that he will take the stump for the regular Bepublican ticket in California, probably with the expectation of being put upon the national ticket next year for Vice-President. Beach continued his address iu behalf of Tilton, June 21st and had some contest with one of the jury. A discussion ensued among the counsel in court when Beach said he should, at the proper time, exhibit proof that the jury had been approached. ^ © T E21 DEN GEESE 40 to 50 pounds per pair at maturity.

U nhealthy F o u n d ations . —Dwellings built on solid and close foundations are al ways unhealthy. An instance is recorded of a locality in Illinois, where there were three settlements within visiting distance of each other, altogether containing about thirty families. One fall every family of the three settlements (with one exception) was sick with the prevailing fever of the s a on. The excepted household had an upper floor to their house (a half story) which was used for .sleeping in by all the family, consisting of parents, three childern and a workman, and they all escaped the fever. All the rest of the inhabitants lived in one story, and of course slept and kept all the stores on one floor. In a house with a close solid founda tion, we found that things would mould if left- standing for a few days. Preserves, placed upon a top shelf, in a short time be came mouldy; but when placed in the sec ond story they all kept well. A barrel of flour was left standing on the floor; when it was about two thirds used, the sponge failed to rise, and as a consequence we lost two bakings of bread, it not being fit to eat. The barrel and flour were, then taken out of doors and placed in the sun, so that the air could circulate freely around and under it, aud after standing thus about six hours, it was replaced on the floor and set on two strips of boards one inch thick. By this means the floor was wholly restored and rendered good to the last. I could, cite many other instances. All receptacles for foul air under or near a dwelling should be very closely attended to, and so opened as to be thoroughly venti- lated, as the instances cited very fully il lustrate. “ On which side of the platform is my train?” asked a stranger in a, Jersey City depot the other day. “ Well, my friend,” replied a gentleman, passing, “ if you take the left, you’ll be right, if you take the right you’ll be left.” Did it ever occur to you what the meaning o f “ No cards,” and “ No cake,” appended to a marriage announcement means? It is simply the exclamation of the editor thrown in, in a spiteful way, to show that he was not remembered.

As the whole scheme seemed so clumsily laid, and as the man himself seems very simple- minded, he has been examined in order to ascertain whether he is now of unsound mind.

The question, is almost daily asked, “ What is the cause of the unparalleled success of V in e g a r B i t t e r s ? ” Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient recovers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Reno vator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history7 of the world has a medicine been compounded pos sessing the remarkable qualities of V in e g a r B it t e r s in healing the sick of every disease. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases. The following is the full text of the law passed at the last session of the legislature relative to the disposal of liquors on the day of any State or city election: A few days since the Provincial of the or der of Jesuits domiciled in Vienna received a pocket containing a sealed letter address ed *o the General of the order, in which an energetic young man offered to murder Prince Bismarck if the Jesuits would pay him through the Provincial in Vienna 200,- 000 florins for necessary preparations, and 1,000,000 florins in case of success. Annex ed to this was, in different handwriting, a slip of paper, on which it was stated that the answer would bo called for at a certain hour, signed Joseph Victinger. The Prov incial informed the police, and on Tuesday- last a man of about thirty called and was taken into custody. He turned out to be the man whose signature was to the letter.
