NEVADA CITY, CALIFORNIA,: LOCAL INTELLIGENCE, 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 was felt by a few persons at half past 3 o’clock yesterday morning, but it was very slight. : 3 a 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. mee. 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. Cunistwas INCIDENTS.—On Christmas evening at the Christmas Trees, aside from the general distribution of presents, several incidents occurred Worthy of note. ; At the Methodist Church, Rev. J.

Parker, pastor of the UonSregational Church, was presented with ahandsome watch and chain by his friends, Tag Late Snocks. — Earthquake shocks such as were experienced by the People of this city on Sunday evening and yesterday morning seldom result much damage: They are called in South America Tremblores, and are Very frequent.

We lave specimens of the stalks raised by Mr. Gillet, and itis stronger than fiax in fiber. He thinks it would pay to cu: tivate at the prices given, for such maby usa day ot two since. THE Party.—The musician’s party Shas been postponed to Thursday eve. ning-of this week. Those who Jove splendidmusic and enjoy dancing should béaltsevnitas attend. The Ne. vada band, a good. set of fellows, fur. nish splendid music\and the community should give them a ‘good benefit. ‘Norary Puniic.—Judge Searls has Notary Public. The Judge has received his commission, filed his bond and is duly qualified to transact all business of a notorial character. THE earthquake shocks experienced in this city “Were felt at other points in the county and State. ‘They were more severe north and less so south. of us. We understand that the oneat 2 o’clock was felt at San Francisco. SHAKE AT San JuaN.—By the earthquake shock, on Sunday evening, a stovepipe was disjointed in Crane’s jewelry shop and the building took fire. It was extinguished with one bucket of water,and no material damage resulted. E Take Norice Everypopy.—Nick Slocovich informs the people of this city that on and after today (Dec.24) he will sell any article that can b bought at the Doilar Store fer $1-(if he has the same) for 75 cents. In other words he will sell goods 25 cents on a doar tess than any one else = d24-tf 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.
