the ranks are kept full and the vitality. of the Club is constantly assured.They will give a grand: ball at
Hunt’s Hall New Year's night.
About six hundred invitations have
been. issued, and an orchestra of the :
best musicians in the county is engaged for the occasion. A fine sup. :

Ay stated in the Taanscripr of
yesterday, the famous Hutchinson
Family, the oldest and by far the
best family of natural singers that
ever traveled theUnited States or
any other country, . are coming to
ers of Nevada City, and will appear
at the Theatre next Tuesday evening. For further particulars see announcement in advertising columns
to-day. Many thousands, of the . pithe old Hutchinson Family well; and
with a feeling’ of kindly affection.
The sweet, inspiring home-ring_of
their voices comes echoing down the
long corridors of time, and to hear
the old familiar strains once again is
a pleasure no old timer will care to’
repudiate. The thirty-eight years’:
musical career and travel of this
ly the American public, but all the
rest of the respectable and appreciative world. ‘Their singing strikes
home to the heart, and is simply
most beautiful, grand and thorough.
ly enjoyable throughout, and at the
close of one of their entertainments
a wishful feeling still lingers with all
at parting to hear “thore of those
glorious.old home songs and heart responding melodies.’

Make Them. Do Something.
Po i ee a
Nevapa, Friday, Dec. 27, 1878.
Eprron Transcriet:—You hit the
nail square on_ the head in saying
that the prisoners at the county Jail
ought to do something to pay for their
keeping. There is a certain“class of
strapping fellows who like nothing
better than to Jay around and be
sure of thei meals from day to day,
so long as they don’t have to earn the
same; but if they know ‘that there
party.
It isone of the fundamental principals of the club that no married
mancan be connected with it as a
member. The instant that. 2 man
takes upon himself m rimonial
vows his name on the rollis cast into
obscurity by having blood red lines
of ink drawn avross:it, amd the simple word “Married” written opposite to indicate the unhappy fate of
victim, Hehas violated. the
Constitution, and the consequence is
_ ignominious expulsion from the ranks
" of the elect. Looking over the names:
that have baen written in the boot
forthe twelve years gone by, one
finds that all the charter members
have long’ since married; and of
those who came after them. but a
more handful still remain true to the
requirements of the Constitution. A
few have passed into the realms of the
Hereafter,some have moved into other cities, but-the great majority
have'settledxlown to providing for
—~wives and babies. = __
H. M., Place was the. firat person
expelled from the’ club. Within a
few weeks after joining in 1866 he
took a mate unto himself. ‘The boys
called a meeting and censured him
severely, then ordered his expulsion.
He submitted gracefully, and invited
_them all to call ov him. They went

Forever Lost. —
How oft are pen and ink the only
. a lonely or unknown soul. How: oft
glide into the dead letters all the unshed tears and wishes, The tired
eyes light up once more, and the soul
mechanically draws the secret ciphers. And how oft blossoms a young
heart with fresh, and loving thoughts
like a beautiful garden growing rith
and mighty; but the bud_is quickly
shattered as soon is the-breathef-language is touched under uneducated
hands, and so are thousands 6f beautiful seedcorns of the world lost forever and ever, M. D.

A ‘Remedy for Diptheria.
Phis terrible scourge of childheod
has made its appearance in Grass Valley, aiid one death is reported to
have occurred from it. There have
béen several cases brought to light
in other parts of the county recently,
and there is no knowing how soon it
may become prevalent in this “immediate vicinity. The following recipe
seems a reasonable one, and is republished for. the reason that if it will
not effect a cure, as claimed, no. harm
is likelyto result from trying it :
Should any of the family be attacked with diptheria, do not be alarmed,
as it is easily cured by observing the
following course of treatment: ee
When it was raging in England a
few years ago, I accompanied Dr.
Field on his ‘‘rounds” to witness the
so-called ‘‘wonderful cures” he performed." All he took with him was
wader of sulphur and a quill, and
with these he cured every patient
without exception. He put a teawineglass of water, and stirred it
with his fingers instead of a spoon,
as the sulphur does not readily amalgamate with water. When the sulphur was well mixed he gave it asa
gargle, and in ten minutes the patient was out of danger. .
_ Brimstone cures every species of
fungus iii man, beast and plant in a
few minutes. Instead of spitting out
the gargle, he recommends the swallowing of it. In extreme cases, when
the fungus,was. too nearly closing to
allow the gargling, he blew the sulthur through 4 quill into the throat,
and after the’fungus had [shrunk to}
allow. of it, then the gargling.° Tf a
person cannot gargle, take a live coal,’
putit.on a shovel, and sprinkle a
spoonful at atime on_it, holding the
face over it, and the fungus will die.
If pléntifully used the whole room
may be filled almost to suffocation.

Plain Talk.
The Mechanics’ and Laborers’Sayings Bank of Jersey City has burst,
and depositors are left to whistle for

become desperate and have sent notes

conscience. of late:
Most of the Socialists who were
expelled from Berlin by the recent
order of the police have left. Their
. applications for extension of time in
order that they might arrange their
affairs and'‘make provision for their
families were uniformly denied, and
in some cases great distress and suffering will result. A number of the
expelled will permanently emigrate
to America, England and Switzerland, while a few will endeavor to
remain in those parts of ( termany
which are not affected by the decree
of expulsion.
A LADY writes to a New York paper publicly thanking Bob Ingersoll
for his good influence on her husband.
Before he knew Ingersoll, she says,
he was.an orthodox Christian, morose and sour to his family, and probably given to fierce outbursts of temper, like a Doctor of Divinity. Since
Ingersoll.converted him she declares
he is like a new man, .kind, merry,

pleasant to live with.
