SDIGNATION Muerixa.—A very large, quiet
onl Reletrained meeting of the citizens aod
property holders of Scott Valley was held in
that locality on last phan the object of
which, when organized, was declared to be ao
unrestrained expression of their contempt for
the manner in which many settlers were recently treated by one True blood, who at the
late land sale held at Humboldt Bay, took advan of the rejected claims of those who had
settled and pre-empted in good faith, run up
said rty and bid ic off, aud contrary to
the knowledge of actua! settlers, These men
bad used every effort to pre-empt rete . in accordance with the law, and because of informality in the proceedings of a Land nt, they
ms igibor. such treatment at the hands of a
ne
b e meeting of citizens on this occasion numbered between two and three huodred persons,
comprising most of the actual settlers of the
valley. Resolutions of a determined character
were d, that Trueblood unwillingly consoenid 40 deed over all such lands as he had
purchased, at the rates he had paid for them,
after which the meeting adjourned.
The meeting, though ofa positive and determined character, was digaified and harmonious
in all their proceedings. They had, however,
met for transacting business promptly, and it
was perbaps well for Trueblood that he yielded
to their demands,—Siskiyou Chronicle.
Aw Inavovrat Sreecu.—The Southern Literary Messenger gives the speech of a Warden
of « prison or penitentiary, in the District of
Columbia, who invited his friends to witness
his installation into office. Th» prisoners having been drawn up in a line, the new Warden
delivered himself thus; “Gentlemen! hem!
No,” eaid be, “you’sr not gentlemen—fellow
eitizens—convicts: I have just been appointed
by the President of the United States Wardeu
of this Penitentiary. Now, I wish to say te you
that it is my design to have everything conducted in the most orderly manner, and 1 would
like you distinctly to understand tbat the first
rascal of you that makes a fuss shal! be kicked
out—he shant stay here at all!’’
Don’t You Do It.—When you are offered a
great bargain, the value of which you know
nothing about, but which you are to get at balf
price, “being its you’’—don’t you do it.
When a young lady catches you alone, lays
violent bands on you, expressing ‘‘kiss’’ in every glance—-don’t you do it.
When a boree kicks you, and you feel a
strong disposition to kick the horse io retura—
don’t you do it,
Should you happen to catch yourself whistling in a printing office, and the printers tell you
towhistle louder—don’t you do it,
If on an odd occasion your wife should exclaim to you, “Now, tumble over that cradle
and break your neck, dol’’—don’t you do it.
An Irnesistasie AprraL.—lIt is said that the
Rev. Theodore Clapp, of New Orleans, gained
access to Carlyle in England, when repulsed
by the servant, (wich the door-closing remark
that “Mr, Carlyle bas just entered his study and
no gentleman can see bim this raph 4 if the
Queen of Engiand should now call here and
request an interview, it would not be granted,’”’
by sending to him the following note:
“No peitionan, but a man is at your door—a
Unitarian, a Yankee, a Democrat and aradical,
all thé way from the Mississippi, a careful reader and a great admirer of Mr. Carlyle, and begs
the favor of ashort interview which must be
granted now, or never this side the grave.’”’
Jones doesn’t dot dis i’s nor cross his t’s,
Hise talk is no less laconic; he never uses the
personal pronoun I. Lately, in reply to the
question, put in rather an,impertinent tone,
“Where were you born ?’’ he replied, “Kaow
where; and you may find out.”

fering humanity, and fully convinced by the fruits of
along and successful practice, that he is able to cure a
great majority of the cases of almost all forms of disease
heretofore considered incurable, and in many instances, after all hope of relief had deserted both the patient and his
friends,
DR. SNYDER,
Feels it hix duty to notify the public generally, that he
continues to prescribe for patients, and to be consulted at
his rooms,
Northwest Corner of Bush and Sansom Streets,
DIRECTLY OPPOSITE THR

On all the various forms of Chronic diseases, including
diseases of the Lungs, Liver, Stomach, Heart, Kidneys,
and Spleen,—a cure guaranteed in Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Amaurosis, or nervous Blindness, Sick, or nervous
Headache, Apoplectic and Congestive fullness of Brain, Epileptic, Parylectic and Hysterical affections.
Cancer Cured without the use of Knife,
and attended with littleor no pain also Tumors, Uleers,
Fistulas, and all the various forms of diseases pertaining
to the EYE and EAR. Diseases of the reproductive
or genital organs will receive special attention.
Dr. SNYDER’S practice in Chronic and Surgical
diseases have been extensive, having been many years
connected with an Infirmary in which patients were received from all parts of the Union, whose diseases were of
the most desperate character, Of these he failed to cure
in a very few instances, in which there was any reasonable prospect of success, he has restored to healthand usefulness hundreds who had given up ail hope of recovery,
and who had suffered for years without relief, under the
treatment of many of the most distinguished Doctors of
the age. Dr. S. will visit in the City or country, those
cases which require personal examination and Surgical
Skill—Invalids, living at a distance, who cannot make it
convenient to consult Dr. Snyder in person, (although
he would prefer seeing the patient at least once,) Pt sending a carefully written description of the origin and history
of his or her case, with its symptoms, and its treatment
heretofore, with a correct statement of his present condition will enable the doctor to judge pretty accurately of its
curability, and enable him to prescribe the proper remedies, and give the necessary iustructions requisite to effect
acure, A volume of testimonials of such cases could be
given, received from patients in all parts ofthe country,
whom he has cured, and who it was never his pleasure to
see, DR. SNYDER deals in no secret nostrums—his prescriptions are prepared in accordance with the latest improvements in Medical Science,

It gives me Poe, to state that I have just been cured
of a severe and painful Inflamation of my Eyes. By DR.
SNYDER, who is an experienced Oculist, and Skillful Sureon, my disease was of a desperate character, and daily
increasing. The Doctors prescriptions gradually relieved
me, and a radical cure was effected without causing me
any pain or inconvenience. DAVID CONNELL.

AMAUROSIS,
Having been afflicted for the last two years with an
Amaurotie affection of Eyes, or nervous blindness, and after exhausting the skill of several eminent Surgeons and
Oculists without relief, I was pronounced a hopeless case.
In this condition I remained for some time, with no prospect before me but to group my way in darkness, the remainder of my days. While in this deplorable condition
I consulted DR. SNYDER, who assured me that mine was
a curable case, and in a few months restored my sight.

and every organ, fibre, and tissus of the body will be in an .
unnatural state. This condition of the system is developed
in various forms; sometimes, outwardly, as in Serofula and
other ulcerous and ervptive diseases: or inwardly, as in
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Swellings, and decay of the
Bones. It is evident, 9 that a medicine which will
CLEANSE AND PURIFY
the elements of the blood, will cure these ompvesne disorders; and practical experience has established the fact
that BANDS’ SARSAPARILLA is that medicine. By expelling the very seeds of disease, it restores to the stomach its
tone; to the whole digestive apparatus, its vigor; and to
the blood, its healthful character,
ASTONISHING CURE.
Copy of a Letter addtessed to our Sole in Chicago, Il,
showing its value in cases of Fever Sores,
Messrs, J. H. Reep & Co,: Gentlemen,—I obtained from
your store a bottle of Sanps' Sarsaparilla, and was then
confined to my bed, without sleep, for a week, occasioned
by a violent pain from a regular Fever Sore, of long standing, on my right leg. My physicians advised me to have
the limb amputated, saying it was the only means likely to
reserve my IWe. After using half of the bottle, the pain
Cogan to subside, and by the time I had used nearly three
bottles, L was able to transact my regular business, and
before I had finished the sixth bottle, . was as well and as
sound as ever I had been, I most cheerfully recommend
it to all my friends es a most valuable medicine for the
purification of the blood.
Yours, nost respectfully,

ROMAN EYE BALSAM,
FOR INFLAMED EYELIDS,
The delicate structure of the eyelid renders it pecullarly
sensitive and Hable to disease. hen, from any cause, it
becomes affected, the inner membrane rapidly inflames,
and the eyelid evinces the strongest predisposition to
attract to itself humors from all parts of the body. Hundreds of persons of scrofulous habit are disfigured by rawness or redness of the eyelids, commonly called sore eyes,
and tortured with apprehensions of impaired vision, who,
by using this Balsam, may obtain almost immediate relief.

Messrs. Sanns: Gentlemen,—-I was afflicted with a dry
poe eruption on le had for fifteen years, commencing
with small styes, which gradually run together, and troubled me very much, Various reinedies were resorted to,
and several eminent physicians prescribed for me. I however received no permanent benefit until I used the Roman
Eye Balsam. The firet application relieved the unpleasant
feeling and symptoms, and in one week I was entirely
cured. It had the same good effect in curing a friend, to
whom I recommended it, for sore eyes. Yours, truly,

a
CEIAPMAN,
Son of the Celebrated Professor Chapman, late of the
University, Pennsylvania, has opened a
Medical and Surgical Institute,
In the City of SAN FRANCISCO, at the South East corner
DUPONT AND JACKSON STREETS,
DR.
For the radical and permanent cure ofall Private and
Chronic diseases. All consultations by letter or otherwise
FREE.
R. CHAPMAN, is daily in the habit of relieving,
at his office those unfortunate enough to be affiicted
with any of the forms of private diseases, such as Syphilis
Gonorrheea, Nocturnal Emissions, and all the consequences of Self-abuse. In the first stages of Syphilitie or Gonorrhceal diseases, he guarantees a cure in a few days. without inconvenience to patient or hindrance to his business.
When a patient, by neglect or improper treatment, has
developed the secondary symptoms of Syphilis, such as bubees or paiuful swellings in the groins, or ulcersi the
throat or nose, which if not checked, destroy the soft parts
and cause the bones to mortify, separate and come away,
leaving the sufferer au object hideous to behold ; or when
blotches and pimples break out upon the skin, or when he
has painful swellings upon the bones, or when his constitution is injured so as to predispose to consumption or
constitutional disease, the Doctor guarantees a cure or
asks no compensation.
In RHEUMATISM, clironic ov acute; in DYSENTERY or
DIARRHGA, he has safe and effectual remedies. For the
treatment of the consequences of selfabuse, such as nocturnal emissions, nervousness, timidity, headache, pain in
the back and limbs, with genoral weakness, loss of memory, injury to the sight, westiessness, confusion of ideas,
dislike of society, and a feeling of weariness of life; with
the nervous system so excitable that slight noises shock
or startle the patient, making his existence miserable.
For the above maladies the Doctor will guarantee a cure
orask no comdensation. He can be consulted free of
charge, and invites all to eall, as *t will cost them nothing
and be much to their advantage. Office hours from 9 a,
M. to9 P. M.
Syphilis and Gonorrhea.—Dr. Chapman’s extraordinary
success in the treatment of Syphilitic and Gonorrhceal diseases in the primary and other stages, induces him to
call public attention to the fact that of the great numbers
who have made daily application to him, there is not one
who has not been effectually and permanently cured. In
recent cases of Syphilis or Gonorrhea, the Dr, guarantees .
a perfect cure in a few days without hindrance to business
or other inconvenience. The Doetor’s method of treatment of these maladies, combines the improvements mado
by the medical faculty, with discoveries of his own that
are unknown to any one else, and which, when applied,
prevent the possibility of evil after consequences.
Secondary Syphilis, whichis so destructive of health,
parts, and leaving the bones exposed, which mortify, separate and come away distiguring the patients face most
horribly, as well .s impairing his general health, and predisposing to consumption, the Dr treats in the most certain and efficient manner. Also Buboes, painful swellings
pimples, and all other consequences of Syphilitic or Gonorrhoeal diseases, he guarantees a cure, or asks no compensation.
The Dr, would especially call the attention of those who
have failed to obtain relief from others, many of whom he
has already cured, and many are still under treatment
The Dr. makes no charge tor consultation, and inyites all
to call at his Institute, and he will give them such satisfaction they can obtain nowhere else. Those at adistance
by writing to the Doctor, can have their eases. promptly
attended to.

The indulgence in secret practices is the most certain, .
though not always the most immediate and direct avenue
to destruction. Physicians of allages have been most
unanimously of opinion that the loss of one ounce of the
seminal secretions, by unnatural aid or emissions, weakens the system more than the abstraction of forty ounces
of blood. One of the first writers un medical jurisprudence
state that three fourths of the insane owe their malady to
such abuse,
How important then, it is—for every one, having the
least cause to suspect any trouble in that way, to attend
to it immediately; even one single occurrence should be
sufficient to cause doubt, and much more so if the person
had ever indulged in the soul-killing hatit. The treatwent used by the justly celebrated DR. J. C, YOUNG, in

CARD FROM DR. J. C. YOUNG’S Private
Medical Office—To the Afflicted—In this age of proprogress when science is almost miraculous, everything in
common place is looked upon as not worth notice. In view
of this fact, Dr, Young, (corner of Montgomery and Cali.
fornia streets, up stairs,) has concluded to leave the beaten track hitherto pursued by most scientific physicians, .
(that of waiting for the public to Gnd you alone,) and publish to the world as much as may be, his knowledge of
the healing art, to let those are in need of assistance know
where they can find relief without being imposed upon.
In continuation of this subject, Dr. Young would say,
that for the past ten yesrs he has pursued the practice of .
medicine in one of the largest cities in the United States, .
with the highest snecess, and that bis standing as a physician is without reproach, having at one time been a lec
turer at the University of Pennsylvania on venreal diseases.
Upon these considerations, Dr. Young has confidence in
introducing himself to the public, knowing that they will
sustain well earned merit. .
The following are a few of the many testimonials which .
haveappeared in the public journals within the last few
yeara:
(From the Boston Medical Journal.] j
Although we are opposed to the system of advertising, .
for good and sufficient reasons, still we deem it but justice .
to say that Dr, Young is one of the most industrious and
indefatiguable votaries of medical science in the United .
States.
{From Professor Jackson. .
The subscriber is personally acquainted with Dr. Youug,
and has seen much of his practice, and can bear testimony
te his merits as a practitioner.
{From the New York Herald. ]
The eminence of this distinguished gentleman in his profeasion, and the very extended opportunities possessed by
hin for the observation of venereal disease, makes services
invaluable to those afflicted with the above complaints.
(From the Whig and Advertiser.]
AllaMlicted with private complaints should if possible,
consult Dr, Young, whose medical education is not surpassed by any l’bysician in the Country, In his skill, honor and integrity, allmay rely with safety, while most of
the medical practitioners in this city are without honesty
or respectability, their pretensions being grounded in ignorauce and assumption,
Important to Miners, Travelers, &c.
here is vo malady of deeper mportance, cither ina
medical or moral poiut of view, to which the human
family is more liable, than that arising from inrpure connections.
As a medical man itis the duty of every physician to
look at disease as it affects health and life, and his sole object should be to mitigate, as far as lies in his power, the
bodily suffering. Human nature at best is but frail, all
are liable to misfortune.
Of all the ills that affect man,
than those of a private nature.
none are more terrible
Dreadful as itis in the
person who contracts it, frightful as are its ravages upon .
his constitution, ending frequently in) destruction anda
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater importance
when it is transmitted to to innocent offspring. Such being the case, how uecessary it becomes that every one haying the least reason to fear that every one having the least
reason to fear that they have contracted the disease,
should attend to it at once by consulting some physician .
whese respectability and education enables him to warrant
a safe, speedy, and permanent cure. In accordance with
this necessity, DR. YOUNG feels called upon to state that
by long study and extensive practice, he has become per
fect master of all these diseases which come under the denomination of venereal, and having paid more attention to .
that one branch than any other physician in the United
States, he feels himself better qualified to treat them.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Ulcers, Swelling in the .
Groins, Ulcers in the Throat, Secondary Syphilis, Cutane.
ous Eruptions, Uleerations, Tetuary Syphilis, Syphilis in .
Children, Mercurial Syphilitic Affections, Gonorhea, Gleet,
Strictures, False Passages, Inflamation of the Bladder and .
Prostrate Glands, Excoriations, Tumors, Postulea, &e., are .
as familiar to him as the most common things of daily observation,
and finds no difficulty in curing those of a long duration,
without submitting the patient to such treatment as will
draw upon him the slightest suspicion, or oblige him to
neglect his business whetber within doors or without.—The diet need not be changed except in cases of severe inflamation. There are in California patients (amounting to
over two thousand in the past year) that could furnish
proot of this; but these are matters that require the niceat
secrecy which he always preserves,
All letters enclosing $10, will be promtly attended to.—

T female is in trouble or affiicted with disease, and requires medical or surgical aid, the inquiry should be where
is there a physician who is fully competent to administer
and who thoroughly understands the application of medicine to disease, and whose scientific attainments in surgery have made him pre-eminentin bis profession, and
whose respectable standing in society, recommends him
to the confidence of the community. Unless these, and
many more questions can be satisfactorily answered, the
afflicted should pause before consulting any one. Considering these things in their true light, the celebrated J. C.
YOUNG, corner of Montgomery and California streets, has
concluded to advertise his place of business to the public,
stating that he has been a professor of obstetrics and feinale diseases for the last fourteen years, and is fully qualified to administer in all diseases, both medically and surgically, not in a superficial manner, but in as thorough a

APPEAL OF THE LADIES’
MOUNT VERNON ASSOCIATION,
TO THE
People of the State of California,
A recent appointment by Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham, Regent of the “Mount Vernon Ladies’ Asrociation of the Union,” has devolved on the undersigned,
. the duty and the privilege of placing before the people of
this State, the purposes of the Association.
An Act of Incorporation from the State of Virginia authorizes the Association ‘to purchase, hold and improve
two hundred acres of Mount Vernon, including the mansion as wellas the tomb of George Washington,’ and to
receive a deed in fee simple, and to exercise full power
over the use and management of the same.
Under this ebarter, a constitution has been adopted,
. which vests the power of management in a Regent and
. Vice Regents, selected one from each State of the Union,
In April, 1558, under the advice of legal gentlemen, a
! contract was executed for the purchase of Mount Vernon
. for $200,000, of which $18,000 was to be paid cash, $57,000
} on the Ist January, 1859, and the balance in three equal
. instalments of $41,666 66 each, with interest from the
date of the contract, payable on 22d February, 1860,
1861, 1862.
Until payment in full, the proprietor is to retain possession, but such payment may be made at any time.
The cash payment was made, and the gratifying intelligence has lately reached us that the instalment of $57,000
was duly met ; thus securing the contract, which allows
payments to be made, in sums not less than $5,000, as
soon as collected, thereby arresting the accrual of interest.
All efforts, therefore, are now turned to the collection of
funds for the payment of the deferred instalments at the
earliest possible day, thereby saving a large amount of
interest, and realizing the cherished hope of at once obtaining possession of Mount Vernon.
To this noble cause, the Women of the Union, deserting
for a season the seclusion of domestic life, have brought
their talents and all their energies. Amidst the diseord of
sectional strife, they bid us gather around the tomb of
Washington as children of a common heritage, there recall his moderation of spirit and pure patriotism, and lay
. to beart the solemn warnings of his last public words,
} They know, that standing on that hallowed spot, the pil.
\
sai. ; grims gathered from the wide expanse of the Republic,
prompt at. can feel but one sentiment—reverence for his teachings,
. and devotion to the Union he so loved.
Men of high station and intellect-—among whom Everett
stands pre-eminent—are lending their influence and their:
eloquence to the cause. In twenty-one States of the
Union, the good work goes bravely on, and California is,
now invited to do her part. Youngest of her sisters, she
yields to none in reverence for the name of Washington,
. and devotion to the Union. Animated then by these sentiments and by a just State pride, let her people bringtheir offerings to this common altar of patriotism. Shalk
the gold of her glittering soil be poured alone into the lap,
. of Commerce, and none be devoted to preserve and guard
with sacred eare the Groves of Mount Vernon? Let alh
. then vie in generous rivalry, to show that California lacks
not the heart to sympathize, nor the hand to help in this
work of patriotism. ’
To the Women of California, this appeal is especially
. made, Your Sisters of the East have assumed this honorable duty and claim your zealous co-operation. Our
State will do her part liberally, if you resolutely take the
matter in hand, On you, therefore, will it depend whether she shall respond te the call. : ‘
. Although contributions to any amount are solicited. yo’
. the price of membership is but one dollar. Concerted an¢
' systematic action, therefore, must be adopted to canvass
. the State from the Sierras’ to the Pacific. The duty of
. such organization devolves on the Vice Regent, and she
proposes the following plan as simple and also effective,
if seconded by your hearty co-operation. 7
Lady Managers will be selected, one or more for each
city, town, village and mining camp in the State, =
