New Dotm.K Eaui.ks. New dies for tlie production of $20 pieces, says the Stan dard, different from the o ones it) many respects, have recetstly lcen received at ti'ie mint in San Fraiu-isco. Unless these facts were generally known the issue of 1.ST7 might caii.i; 'some trouble among bankers, brokers and others who handle much coin, and look out for counterfeits. In ihe new dies the head of Liberty, which in old ones was leaning to the right, is now peifvendieular. The outlines of the face ami the hair are brought out more promptly, giving to the coin the appear ance of being much la ger. On the reverse side three important changes have been made. On tjie old issues there were ti-e words at the bottom "TWENTY 1).." but now tlie deiioinin;it ion is expressed plain ly, "TWENTY DOLLARS.' In the scroll underneath the coat of arms, the words "K Pluribus U num." are engraved much larger; they could be made out with diiti cisity on the old opes, but can easily be read now. Above the coat of arms' the upper row of .stars is thrown up in tlie ii;tl-and the oval disposition of the stars widened. The engraving is much better than in old issues and tlie whole coin looks more handsome and attractive to the eye. There -is no tlillVreuce in the weight, fineness or size ot the coin. The mint commenced coining the new double eagles a few days ago. Lock Ci.oskp. On Thursday evening of l ist week the W. H. T. ec L.Co. placed the dismantled hull of the llonanza in the upper lock for the purpose of taking the mud out of her. Owing to the depth to which the hull was sunk into the water, it was impossible to float her into the drv dock. It was tlie intention of the company to have the work completd while the op position boats were up the river. The S. 1 Church failed to make her regular time and was caught below the loc ks and had to wait until Saturday evening before the hull was removed from the lock. Senate Will No. 10 provides that it the owners or agent of the locks receives a tender of the amount required for the passage of a Ixiat through said locks, unless closed under the sanction of the Locks Commissioners or under the provisions of said bill, the owners or agent shall forfeit sfiMl to the owner of the ho it sutlering detention. In accordance with these provisions the clerk of the S. T. Church tendered the required fee four or live times, and of course l 1,1 not get through the locks. I f the Supremo Court decides that said Senate bill is con stitutional, and the owners of the S. T. Church hold out for the payment of the forfeiture, they will receive a fair compen sation for the detention. ARTiKicAr. Stone. The Victoria CoIon ist of the 17th inst. has the following con cerning the artificial stone men: "It is known that Colonel Thorp and Ij. L. Leathers, who lately visited this city to dcoit of a patent 'for making arlij"icial stone, liaving succeeded in selling it to an association for part cash and part notes, have disposed of the notes in this city to a large amount, at a disjoin t of about forty eight per cent. Yesterday other of the notes were ottered at a discount of 51 per cent. These facts, taken in connection with the llight of Leathers and Thorp, without fulfilling their agreement with the association, have caused certain of the drawers to issue a notice in this morning's Colonist, cautioning all parties from nego tating their paper. Injunctions were issued last night enjoining holders from negotiating the pa-ier held by them." Cculs. We clipthe following item from an exchange, which will no doubt be very interesting to the 3 oung ladies: "To keep hair in curl, take a few quince seeds, boil them in water, ami add jterfumery if you l.ke; wet the hair witii this, anil it will keep in curl longer than from the use of any other preparation of which we know. It is also good to keep the hair in place on the foreheid if you are going out in the wind. The seeds can be bought at the drugstore for a few cents an ounce; or, w hen you make vour quinces into jelly, you can save thelsecds yourself." P. of H.

When it happens"that the ali mentary processes are disturbed by improper or half masticated food, the best remedy for evel results of abusing the digestive organs is Hostetter's Stomach bitters, most agreeable, prompt and gentle remedy for dyspeDsia.and for the bilious and evacuative irregularities) which resuJt from it. The liver and bowls, in ! common with the stomach, experience its -beneficent influences.
