--Water in Grass Valley, committed
suicide some time Sunday night, by .
shooting himself through the head
with arevolver. Mr. Farrell was a
than of generous impulses, warm
heart and strict integrity, but dissipation in his-case as in thousands of
others, was doubtless the predisposing cause of this rash act.He was
a member of nearly all the secret orders.
The Rain at Columbia Hill.

that the rain fellin torrents at Columbia Hill on Saturday night. The
roads there yesterday morning were

time for a preparatory course of the
best acclimatizing medicine in existence, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.
Fever and ague is rampant in all
partsof the country.Quinine, the
physicians admit, will not quell the
phase of the disease which at peer

well that it is so, forthe remedy (socalled) is deadlier than the malady.
But if quinine is inefficient in intermittent fevers, Hostetter’s Bitters is
irresistible. It would be safe to
make a contract, be gr heavy al

district” a be exempted from
the disorder of any, particular time,
provided every inhabitant would
