The following proclamation has been issued 'by the' President of the United States: The American people have alwnyt, abundant cause to be thankful to Al iiiih' Gjvi, whose watchful cnre and giiislini; hand have been manifpfted in cierr '' of their national lif, guid lug and protecting them iu time of pfiil, itud safely leading them in the lioui of danger. Ii is filling and proper that a natisn thus favored should, on one day in rvery year, for that purpngp especially appointed, publicly acknowledge the guedness of God and teturn thank to liim for all his gracious gifts. Therefore I, Grover Cleveland, 'President of the United States of -America, do hereby designata and set aparrtliurbday, the Oiti day of Nov". iiuunt, as a day of public thanks ;gi"ing and prayer, and do invoke the obsurvance of the same by all the pso "p!o of thn land On that day let all secular ItunitKns bi suspended and lut the people assemble in their uual places of worship, uud with prayer and soi:g of praise devoutly testify their gratitude to the giver of every good nnd pnrft-ct 51ft, for all that he han don for us in the year that has passed ifnr our preservation as a united nation, and foi our deliverance from the shook and dancer ef, political convulsion; far our kafety and quiet whi'e wars and irumrrs of warR have agitated and aflTvtrd other, nations of tho earth; for nnr Btcurily against the scourg? of pfistilHiicn nhich 'in other lands has cUuned its dead1 by the Ihomand, and, 'fil ed the streets with monrnsrs; for th- plenteous crops which reward the laborer the husbandman and increase our nation's wealth, and for content ment thronghout our borders, which .follows in the train of prosperity and abundance. And let there also be on the day thuf 11ft apart a reunion of families, sanctified and chastened by tender .memories uud aioocia':nn; and let the :social intercourse of friends with plearant reminiscences renew ties of affection and strengthen bonds of kindly feelii.g. And let us by no means forrnt, while we give thanks and uujov tlio GOtnforts wtich have crowned our lives, that truly grateful Irarts are inclined to deeds of chari ty, and that kind and thoughtful re membrance of the poor will double the pleasures f our condition and rer.drr onr praise and thanksgiving moro ac ceptable in the sight of the Lord. r:iDo-"at'-lhe city of Washington, this, the second Jay of No umber, one thousand, eight hundred .and eighty -five, and ef the independence of the United States the .one hundred and temh. GROVER' CLEVELAND. Uy the President, T. F. Bayaiid, Secretary of State. .Tlic People's Choice- The Sentinel doesn't believe that -tb"ro was ever in any State a more piotiouncrd and undeniable public fcctitiinent in favor of-the election ef ,. cvrtmu uicn to a certain position than exists 111 iLi State at this time in regard to li.c election of a United States Senator. Luing ou' of the question any . pjr-Mliiluy or (Lought of the election uia Doitiuuai and it is conceded no DxmuL-ial cn bo elected it is safe tu tuiiriu ttiDi, taking the whole popula Uuc. without regard to party, and ud uiiiiuig tint we are to hava a Repub lican Senator, fully nine tenths of the pAplti would say: "give uk. lion. Johu II. Mitchell in prcferance to any other man." Now since this honorable gentle men is undeniably the choico of the posple, the Legislators who assemble at Salem nest Monday have a plain and untnistakableduty to peform, and that duty is to elect the man whom the people want, and not, for some flippant reason, or disgraceful subter fuge elect some one they do not want and thus prove recreant te the trust con Tided to them. No member of that honorable body should let any public journal, however pretentious, sway him from the faithful performance of his duty, and especially should this be Be when that duty relates directly to thi public good aud has the public sanction. The Sestixel is a believer in lion. Joan II. Mitchell; first, because he is the man for the place; and second, be cause he' is the choice of the people. "The A. O. U. W.

The Board propose to give a grand ball Thanksgiving night, far the LentEt of the above institution. $J2T" H UVJU'ATt4 IBTZg Snip burets and Sulphuret Sharps. A tdirMpMideift of the Tuolumne "Independent" sajs: The great un known quantity in gold quartz mines, is 'the value of the feulhurelv, and the number of companies who hate been ruined by them, is very large. Tbey are ofleu?fair to look upon, rut as often prove deceptive "Like Dead Bea fruits that tempt the ej e, But turn to ashes on the lips." They are of many kinds and colors. Some are docile, ome are rebellious. The sulphureu found in gold quartz mines are chemical couipeondi ef sklphur, with iron, lad, zinc, copper, arseoie and antimony. The common pyrites, or sclphurets, are composed of iron and sulphur. Galena is com posed of lead and sulphur. Zinc blende, or blackjack, is zinc and sul phur, with a little iron and lead, gen orally. The brassy looking pyrites, which are technically cilled clialco pyrite, are composed of iron, copper and sulphur; and, other kinds of sul phuretSi are composed of one or more of the metals rrentioned above, and sulphur. When mugh lead, zinc, arcanicand antimony are present, the sulphurets, are called base or refractory, and are very troublesome, requiriug roasting, as a preliminary step, and the use ot chemicals in the subsequent grinding processes. The gold 'which occurs in sulphurets, is hold there mechanically, and is not chemically combined, like the o'her elements, and is held just the same as the gold in the quartz, with th exception that sulphuret gold is smaller and lighter. It can be set free from the -pyritic matter contain ing it, either by dissolving the pyrites with acids, or, in the chlorination process, tby -chlorine gs, which dis solves the geld, or by roasting or burn ing them, thus driving off all the sul phur, arsonic, antimony or ziac, that may be present, and brightening the cold and leaving it in good condition to amalgamate iu pans or arntras; or, lastly, by grinding the sulphurs, s raw, in pans or -arastra, with quicksilver. "Which one ot these processes any mine need, bus to bo determined by tbo value per ton of the sulphurate, and by their docility of their rebejHous ness. Some mines preduce sulphurets which-yield their gold when worked raw, by a grinding process; others hold the gold closer, andVequiro chemicals, or else roasting. The problem is, how to get ths most profit out of them; for, while the chemical processes yield a better percentage of the assay value per ton, they are so expensive that they will not pay as much profit as the chesper processes, which do not yield as high a percentage ef the assay value, and the tendency ef the times is now toward the cheaper, er grind in processes. In cases whore tbey are base, a preliminary roasting is ncce'tary. Pyrites, or sulphnretf, are spotted, juit as quartz is. Some are rich, some are poor, in the same ore, and bo eye can tell rich from poor; and, any one who pretends to do so, either deceives himself, or is a humbug. "A man may smile and smile, and yet bo a villian;" and so can the bright shining sulphurets be of no value, or the dark, gloomy ores be rirh. The only way to test them is by fire assay, or by roast ing them and panning out; and here is where many people are deceived, for they are inclintd to think their sul phurets all alike, and if one chute or chimney of ore contains rich sulphurets all their other chutes are likewise rich, which may or may no! be the case, and it cat. be laid down as a rule, the su'phurets want as carrtul propecting as the quartz, before any ccircct value can be Jciuiid. About as uncertain as the snlphn rets themselves, and often as stubborn and rebellions, is the sulphret sharp the man who has a processor processes to get more gold out of sulphrets than is in them. He is a mau with a hob boy, and often with a crank, as well, and is always finding some wonderful process which turns out to be totind, proved, tried everything but true or useful. Processes which look well on paper, or work well on a small scale, fail when tried commercially er prac tically. They are sound ia theory, but isinous when used practically. Every few years a new sharp finds the true process, and the mining world goes wild over the man who has found the great secret, but somehow or other he fizzles out, and we all go back to first principles, until another new sul phuret meteor flashes across our hori zon, and then we all are agog with renewed excitement until he Hashes out of sight again. Simplicity and cheap handling of sulphurets is what we are tending to, and -the simple processes, which do not yield as high a percentage ef the sulphurets, yield a better met profit to the tainsrs than the cwtlier prececm, wacoR35Pcs2ffwrsrsr-nrrrr5 KSXTEwaexroesn Uiuiie a Urt.br :reeiiug ut gold. The sooner the whole mallet "is robbed f tho air of ra start that surround? it the better. To hear one of thpse deeply, darkly mvbteriuu sulphuret men talk, reminds eite of th? days of aK-hemv, nnd carries us back down ihe centuries, to the age of superstitio to the time of magic elixirs of life, and the philosopher's stone, and the hum huggerr of the ancient magicians. Let us look at mining in the full day light of modern science and practical business, and hate no mare humbug: mystery, -worthy 'only the dark ages and the childhood of mining. Let us return to the blanket sluice for a con centrator and wotk the blanket tail ings in a pan or arastra, raw, if they are dncil, or roast them, as a prelim inary, if they are bae, aud be content with the Tesult; for by striving to get the last cent out of the su'phurets we lose rather than gain. The great army of concentrator and sulphuret sharps, who have ailltcted this coast, have caused the loss of millions of dol lars with their new fangled p'am and experiments, and want to bs sent to pot to await the coming of their brothers tho mischievous, gay, de ceiving patent quartz mill men who are now reaping the harvest of the mining greenhorns, w'lich the concen trator and salphuret men used to look on as theirs. Ruin follows in the wako of all these mining humbugs, and almost overy quartz mill, from San Diego to Alaska, shows some of ths marks of these new processes and ma chines which generally get more gold out of the miner's pocket than out of the sulphurets. "S. F. Mining and Scientific Press." Summary of the Results. New Yrk, Nov. 5. Following is a summary of the resu'ts of the ejec tions in the East and South Tuesday, made up from the last returns re ceived from theseveral states: New York elects Hill, (democrat) for governor by about 11,000 plurali ty. The state legislature is republi can on joint ballot by a majority cf 3G, in a total vote of 1G0. In New Jersey the republicans have five majority in the senate, and four in the assembly, miking a majority of nine on joint Wlot. In Connecticut the republicans 12 majority en joint ballot, a republican loss of 17. In Virginia Lm (democrat) is elect ed governor by about 25,000 majority. As far as reported the legislature is heavily democratic, that party having G2 out of 100 members of the bouse, and 23 out of 40 in the senate. The counties yet to be heard from will prebab y increase these majorities. In Massachusetts Robinson, rep , is elected governor by a plurality of about 22.000. The "World" claims that the democrats gain fifteen mem bers in the house and seven in the serrate. In Maryland the democratic stato ticket is elected by about 30,000. Tho legislature will stand about as follows: Senate, republicans G, democrats 20; house, republicans 1G, demecrats 101. Democratic majority on joint ballot, 09. The successor of United States Senator Gorman will be. a Democrat. In Pennsylvania, Quay, rep., for state treasurer, the only state officer vo'.ed on, is elected br probilly over 35, 0U0. All the changes in figures in that state show republican gains. a. Government Land. "In Western Oregon, tho lands re maining to the Government are almost entirely confined to tho foothill legali ties; soma twenty miles from railroad towns." Says an exchange. "In Southern Oregon these lands may be found nearer;the road, but still in the foothills. The term "timbered" and "brush" will apply to all these lands. In the Eas'ern portion of the State the Government lands aro in the valleys, and many be denominated bunch grass or pasture lands. In some parts of the State, the immigrant will find art excellent location on Government land, though it must be said the new-comer will have to take his share of the 'heavy timbered and such as is removed some what from the lines of transportation. These claics will be very valuable by and by, and for the present will if properly looked after, provide a good home for tho immigrant and his fam ily." The Overland Monthly for Novem ber is a splendid number, and adds to the high reputation ef the periodical. The table of contents is diversified as usual, and poor must be the literary taste which does not find in it much that is bcth instructive and entertain ing. Among other good papers, is one on "The Wyoming Anti-Chinese Riot," by Hon. A. A. Sargent, late Minister to Germany, in which ho ex press wi'b dignity and temperance the prevalent opinion of the Pacific States and Territoritts, with regard te the serfs of tho Six Companies, and the necessity of getting rid of.taera. MM n THE PR01IT DOOR No article entering so generally into the food of every family has been found more villainously adulterated than baking powder. For the purpose of underselling the " Royal," whose' absolute purity and wholesomeness has never yet been questioned, hundreds of dealers are putting up baking pow ders with cheap and adulterated cream of tartar, which .contains lime, earth, etc., adding strength by the free use of alum. These adulterated powders are "shoved" upon the pub lic with, the greatest persistency. They .are first given away left in samples at private residences, with circulars containing bogus analyses and certificates, and false repre-sent.Hp-as to their value, eta Tiu3 factynJs suffi cient to condemn them. A first-class article will s'ell on its merits. No manufacturer whose goods are of value can afford to give them away, and none but the cheapest make and most inferior or unmarketable goods require to be distributed free in order to get the public to use them, and this method is adopted only by. parties who have failed to dispose of their wares through the ordinary and legitimate channels of trade. Free samples of articles cf food left at the house should be regarded with suspicion. There is no guarantee of their wholesomeness, while there is real danger that they contain a fatally poisonous compound. . Many instances of poisoning from the use of such samples are recorded. -The Royal Baking Powder is never given away, sold by means of lotteries, nor accompanied by chromos, spoons, crockery or other gifts, except the gifts of absolute pui-ity, wholesomeness, full weight and superlative IcavSning power. These gifts are guaranteed with each package. Its own merits have been its chief advertisement, and they have se cured for it the constant patronage of the American people to an extent beyond the combined sale of all other baking powders. The Royal Baking Powder is -absolutely pure and perfect. lair1. ix" - j-j.i.ii'i ' mj.i.'jm. ul.! l-f-ULiiiL.-a--uCT.iJ3jJj.-'.j--J!Ai. ,.imi.m tor Infants and Children, '"Castorfalssowenadaptodtochnareatliat 1 CastoHa enrea Colic.
