EARTHQUAKE Saocks._Within the
last forty-cight hours this locality as
been visited by four or. five earthquake
shocks, two of which were so severe as
to be felt by nearly eVery person in the.
neighborhood. Some persons saya
slight shock was. felt by them at half
past 5 o’clock on Sunday evening, but
the first one of unusual severity was at
five minutes before ‘six.
the uildings to and fro, giving the
heaviest motion to the-upper part. In
the rm har set, the pictures
upon the walls swung back and forth,
the windows rattled ‘and the gas-burner
vibrated «more than “ai\ineh. The
shock lasted for about six seconds. The
next shock was at thirty minutes before 1 o’clock yesterday morning, thie,
direction and motion being the same,
bat the shock was hardly perceptible.
At2 o'clock another occurred which
awakened the people and which was
more severe actording to general opinion than the one at 6 o’clock: Another

JupGE McFanuanp.— Hon. T. B.
McFarland who has served two terms
as Judge of the District Court of the
District including Nevada and Placer,
will, after the Ist of January open an
office for the practice of law in Sacramento. Judge McFarland is a pioneer of this place, and while hosts of
friends. regret his departure, all will
rejoice that he enters.a field which of.
fers better opportunities : for success in
the practice. The extensive acquaintour citizens have business at the land
office, will secure bim m good business
in the branch of law from the beginning.
We hope that in his new home,
may meet with the success he so w
deserves, and we have no doubt that: he
will take‘a first rank in his profession
at the Capital.

Tur New Fre Bitu.—The new fee
bill passed by the last Legislature goes
into effect on the Ist day of January,
John Abbey, who has had charge of the
Auditor’s department, that the fees in
the Clerk’s offiée now amount in the
aggregate to $800 per month, and it is
estimated that under the new bill they
smay be less. This change of fees does
not effect any officer now paid _by fees,
during this term, but it will operate in
all public business. The County Clerk,
and, in fact, nearly all the officers of
the county are under salary and in such
Offices the fees will be changed. The
cost to litigants will be about threeeights the present rates, and the chances
cers“who go in. next March to get
hough in fees to pay the small sala:
Tles provided by the new law.

The Great Medical Mistake,
Of former days was an utter neglect of sanitary precautions. No efficient means were
‘adopted for the prevention of sickness. Sewerage was unknown in cities; drainage was
rarely attempted im the country. Heaps of
offal were lett to .rot in the public streets,
and domestic cleanliness, thegreat antidote
to-febrile diseases, was sadly neglected. it
isnot so now. Wise laws, philanthropic
institutions, and a vigilant sanitary police,
have, to.a great extent, remedied the evil.
Noris this all. PREVENTIVE MEDICATION has
helped materially to lessen the rates of mortality. It is. not too much to say that Tens
OF THOESANDS escape sickness in unhealthy
seasons in cogsequence of having INVIGORATED THEIR SYSTEMS IN ADNANCE by a couree of
HOSTETTER’S STOMACH BITYERS. This
pure and powerful vegetable tonic and alterative compriscs the extracts and essences ofa
variety of roots and herbs, renowned for
their strengthening, soothing, vitalizing and
purifying properties. These medicinial agents
are’incorporated with a spirit abeolutely free
from the acrid poison which defiles,more or
lese, all the liquors of commerce, and their
effect is diffused through the whole frame by
this active, yet harmless stimulant, The result is such a condition of the system as renders it ALL BUT IMPERVIOUs to the exterior
causes of disease, such. as damp, tog, sudden
alternations of tempeatnre, &c.—Strength,
andthe perfect regularity of all the functions
of the body, are the best safeguards against
atmocpheric poison and the effects of unwholesome water, and HOSTETTER’S BIT.
TERS ure the best strenghening and regulating medicine at present known. For dyspepsia and biliousness they are a SPECIFIC
