gee aitenent tet BY ( ia renee [From the Red Bluf Beacon.) Those TES cht aie foabilgs with of our readers are lar w the history of events a0 they transpired in the Cherokee Nation, for sev: rs immediate] the year 1849, will readily apprec Brees tits that must have actuated the breast of young Ridge at the time the following was written. For the information 0 , however, who are not informed upon this nt, we would state. that prior to the time of Re removal of the Cherokees from their old homes in Georgia. John Ridge, or See-lee-loskee, as he was called in the herokee tongue, was Chief of the Nation, and when desired by the U. S. Government to remove with bis people to the lands that had been selected for them on the borders of Arkansas, immediately obeyed. Knowing that it would be useless to contend against so mighty a power as that of our Guvernment, he started with as many of his trbe as were willing to go with him, for their new homes in the far West. Some there were who refused to leave their native woods and plains, and re‘mained behind. Of this faction John Ross, a quarter-blood, was chosen chief, and they remained in Georgia several years, until they were compelled by the Government to remove to the west and join those that bad gone before them under Ridge. There was, ever after tbis, a deadly feud existing between the rival factions; two parties immediately sprung up, one known as the Ridge, or old setler party, and the other as the Rossites. These were alternately in the ascendancy; Ross appealed to their prediees in favor of the lands where their fathers lived and died, while Ridge pointed to the many advantages they enjoyed in their new Homes over their old ones, in the character and quality of the land, &c. ' Finally, ia the year 1849, and at a time when Rosas was in power, he began to fear the rising popularity of Ridge, who, it was plain to be geen, was every day growing in favor with the ople. Major Ridge, the father of the chief, ‘ad been put to death by the Rossites, and Joba Ridge was exerting every nerve to regain bis rights, and to avenge the death of his father; and at the close of aday in which he had spoken to the people in one of the most powerful and eloquent oratorical efforts ever beard in the Nation, and after having received the congratulations of the multitude who rashed eagerly forward to grasp his hand, be was most fuully and brutally murdered by birelings sent by Ross to way-lay him and take his life. It was, we say, at the close of events such as these, that John R. Ridge, son of the old chief, and rightful heir to the chieftaincy, then quite a young man, penned the following lines over the signature of “Yellow-Bird,’”’ his Cherokee name, and sent them for publication to the Springfield, Mo., Whig, of which we were at that time the proprietor:— “Let Truth and Falsehood Grapple.” Why steals around my brow this eve A shadow darker than yon cloud, Which hides the struggling stars trom sight, Like mighty thoughts are from the crowd? Why comes a sadness o’er my heart, Deep as the scarce-heard thunder’s moan, Which, all etherealized, doth seem Some dark and wandering angel’s tone? Ah, life hath many a lighter curse Than his, who bears a nation’s hate— An exile from the early home, Which men have rendered desolate ! 'Tis hard to bear a doom-struck brow, To have no certain resting place— Reyiled, proscribed und hunted down, Accurs’d by one’s well-loved race . — A race for whom 'twere sweet to die, Would dying raise them from their death : The death of all their glorious hopes, Whose ruins now they lie beneath ; Would dying raise from their lone graves The noble men, who lost in vain, Their spotless lives, that one, so mean Hell scorns to name his name, might reign. The grass grows green above the grave, Where “8ca lee-los-kee’’* sleeps alone ; Long darkened now his eagle eye, Long silenced now his fearless tone; And distant from the son he loved, The great ‘‘Ka nun-ta-cla-gi’’t lies, Whose trumpet voice led warriors on, Whose strong hand seiz’d the battle’s prize. E’en he that ‘‘walked the mountain tops,’’ “The Lion’ of a noble tribe, Whom gathering dangers ne’er appalled, Whose kingly heart no sums could bv ibe ; ’ And where the ‘Park Hill Mission’’ throws Its now no longer hallowed shade, (Because fell murder hath been there) The gentle Boudinot is laid ; On whose warm heart sweet heaven breath'd A purity all stain above— Who gave unto his God, and to His bleeding country, all his love! 'Tis o’er the ashes of such men, A hireling band of murderers tread ; ‘Tis o’er the nation that they loved, A tyrant rears his hated head ! Go, villain, shade thy aly face From forms that round thy bed arise, And, in their bloody shrouds confront Thee w.th their dark and steady eyes. Go, coward! creep into thy den, And hide thy deeds from Sse sight, Lest with a hand too strong for thee, I drag thee headlong into light ! Grand River, Cherokee Nation, *Joho Rilige. {Major Ridge. Is the Cholera Contagious? Away “up town,’ in a very pleasant house, in a very pleasant street, lives two very pleasant families, having three very pleasant daughters, which half dozen daughters, being all iu their teens,’”’ are visited by some very pleasant young geutlemen, and as may be readily imagined, the old house could, provided it were possessed of conversational powers, relate some very pleasant tales, concerning very many pleasant scenes, that have transpired wi hiu its walls, But in the absence of such power to tell tales, on the purt of the house, I will relate one little incident that happened there last winter. The six young ladies bad arrayed themselves very prettily in anticipation of a visit from the young gentlemen before mentioned, and the time dad passed beyond the hour when it was reasonable to expect them, they determined to enjoy themselves without them. They had visited the theater a few evenings previous, and had witnessed the wonderful mances “India-r map,’’ and as their conversation happened to turn upon that subject, they thought it would be fine fua to try and imitate his feats, or perchance eclipse them. No sooner said than done, and at it they went. One after another tried the various movements without apy very marked success, except to elicit shouts of laughter from the rest, until rom one of them succeeded in getting both feet clapsed around her neck. She was considered a ‘star,’ and applauded to the echo, but now came the tug. She had got her feet up there, but for the life of her she could not get them down again, and her companions found it equally impossible to unlock the clasp and aid her. At this juncture, the door-bell rang, and oue of the young ladies hastened to the door, admitted one of the young gentlemen before mentioned, in fact, the very one who was paying his devours, as Mrs. Partington would say, to the fair contortionist, who was at tbat moment in the back parlor ia such a peculiar strait(?) Showing the young man into the front parlor, the young lady returned to the gymnastic party, but no exertion on their part was sufficieut to unlock the clasp of the youn lady’s fevt, and she was begiteing to sultee severely from the effect of her unwoated position, re wasa@ dilemma. and how w get out of it was then the point they aimed at, Something must be done, and quickly, for the contortionist began to.show signs of suffocation. “T have it,’ said the most ready witted of the number, and off she went at a “2:40” gait for the front parlor. “Good evening, Mr.——”’ said she, as she stood before the young man, ‘Mary is very sick.” f . clapse “Her attack was so eadden, we hardly know what it is, bat it very mach resembles cholera, and she is so terribly cramped, we cannot manage her ‘as our parents are out, I have come to ack your assistance.’’ Witlout a momeat’s hesitation, the young man flew, rather than walked, to the aid of the young sufferer. He seized her feet and unC 'd them, and in his alarm for Mary's safety, he never gave ita thought bow singular was her situation, but really believed she was “terribly cramped. “We ae ri obliged to you for your assistance, Mr.——,” said the young lady who bad summoned him, “and as we have now got her limbs straight, we will get slong without difficulty. If you will be kind enough to return to the parlor, we will give her the necessary attention, and I will let you know when she is better.” : ; Suggesting the propriety of sending for her rents anda physician, he returned to the front parlor, and in half an hour bad the satisfaction of hearing that Mary was mueh better, but as they had got her in bed, he could not see her that evening. With his mind relieved, he took bis departure, promidiog td call early the next morning. After he was gone, the walls of the pleasant room echoed with a merry langh, and Mary exacted a promiee from all to keep the cause of her iliness a profound secret. But somehow, the story leaked out, and while the young gentleman who was present on the occasion, has since been known as * Doctor.”’ the young ladies are frequently quizzed as to whether the “ Cholera is contagious ?”” Tax Last Max.—A Cincinnati paper notices the last solitary banquet of a “last man’s’ club heldin that city. In the cholera season of 1832, seven gentlemen agreed to meet annually and dine once together as long as they lived, a bottle of wine to be sealed and dran in memorium by the last survivor. The first reunion was beld on the 6th of October, 1832, and on the 5th of October, 1858, Dr. Vattier, sole survivor of the seven. drank from the bottle and pledged the six dead friends whose emp: ty chairs and empty plates were his only s0ciety at the last melancholy feast.

CELTAPMAN, Son of the Celebrated Professor Chapman, late of the University, Pennsylvania, has openeda Medical and Surgical Institute, In the City of SAN FRANCISCO, at the South Fast corner DUPONT AND JACKSON STREETS, For the radical and permanent cure of all 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 afflicted with any of the forms of private diseases, such as Syphilis Gonorrhea, Nocturnal Emissions, and all the consequences of Self-abuse, orrhcal 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 symptoins of Syphilis, such as bubees or paiuful swellings in the groins, or ulcers i 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 an object hideous to behold ; or when blotches and pimples break out upon the skin, or when he has painful swellings upen the bones, or when his constitution is injured yo as to predispose to consumption or constitutional disease, the Doctor guarantees a cure or asks no compensation. In RHEUMATISM, chronic or acute; in DYSENTERY or DIARRHEA, he has safe and effectual remedies. For the treatment of the consequences of selfabuse, such as noe. turnal emissions, nervousness, timidity, headache, pain in the back and limbs, with general weakness, loss of memo: ry, injury to the sight, restlessness, confusion of {deas 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 coemdensation, He can be consulted free of charge, and invites all to call, as ‘t will cost them nothing and be much to their advantage. Office hours from 9 a. M. to9 Pp. M. Syphilis and Gonorrhcea.—Dr. Chapman’s extraordinary success in the treatment of Syphilitic and Gonorrheal 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 net one who has not been effectually and permanent}; eured.

The Doetor’s method of treatment of these maladies, combines the improvements made . 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, which is so destructive of health, producing ulcerations of the throat, destroying the soft 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.

One of the first writers on 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 treatnent used by the justly celebrated DR. J.C, YOUNG, in cases of seminal weakness, impotency, sterility, nervous debility and paralysis, (the last is the riost dangerous and when it once occurs, incurable,) is not surpassed by any physician in the country. It is the same as that follos ed by him for years, under the guidance of the world-renowned Record of Paris, and Acton of London. Pr.

YOUNG'S Private Medical Office—To the Afllicted—tin 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 California 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 fn one of the largest cities in the United States, with the highest success, and that his standing as a physician is without reproach, having at one time been a lecturer 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.) Although we are opposed to the system of advertising, for guod and sufficient reasons, still we deem it but justice to ray that Dr. Young is one of the most industrious and indefatiguable yvotaries of medical sciencein the United . States. [From Professor Jackson. } The subscriber is personally acquainted with Dr. Youug, ard has seen much of his practice, and can bear testimony te his inerita as a practitioner, {From the New York Herali.] The eminence of this distinguished gentleman in his profession, and the very extended opportunities possessed by him for the observation of venereal disease, makes services invaluable to those aflicted with the above complaints. [From the Whig and Advertiser.) All afflicted with private complaints should if possible, . consult Dr. Young, whose medical education is not surpassed by any Physician in the Country. In his skill, hon or and integrity, all may 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 no malady of deeper importance, either ina medical or moral point of view, to which the human family is more liable, than that arising from impure connections. Asa medical man it ia the duty of every physician to look at disease as it affectshealth and life, an? his sole obbodily suffering. Human nature at best is but frail, all are liable to misfortune. Of all the ills that affect man, none are more terrible than those ofa private nature. Dreadful asitisin the person who contracts it, frightful as are its rave ges 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 necessary it becomes that every one having 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 whose respectability and education enables him to warrant a safe, speedy, and permanent eure. In accordance with this necessity, DR. YOUNG feels called upon to state that by long study and extensive practice, he has become perfect 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 Groina, Uleers in the Throat, Secondary Syphilix, Cutaneous Eruptions, Uleerations, Tetuary Syphilix, Syphilis in Children, Mercurial Syphilitic Affections, Gonorhea, Gleet, Strictures, False Passages, Inflamation of the Bladder and Prostrate Glands, Excoriations, Tumors, Postules, &c., are as familiar to him as the most common things of daily ob. servation. The Doctor effects a cure in recent cases in a few days, and finds no difficulty in curing those of a long duration, without submitting the patient to such tieatment as will draw upon him the slightest «uspicion, or oblige him to neglect his business whether 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 nicest secrecy which he always preserves. All letters enclosing $10, will be promtly attended to.— Office hours from 9 4. M., to8P.M., Address J.C. YOUNG, M. 1, Express Building. Corner of Montgomery and California ats., over Wells, . Furgo & Co's Express department. . JMPORTANT TO FEMALES.—WHEN A 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-eminent in bis protession, 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. concluded to advertise his place of busines’ to the public, stating that he has been » professor of obstetrics and feinale diseases forvthe last fourteen years, and is fully qualifed to administer in all diseases, both medically and surgically, not ja a superficial manner, but in as thorough a manner as years ot study and practice—both in hospitals and private families, can make ; therefore, families can rely upon himas a father. All in aMiction can findin him one who can sympathize with, and befriend them in trouble, one in whose secrecy the utmost confidence can be placed. Come all ye that are afflicted and in trouble, and you will be relieved or cured. Apartments privately ararranged so as to preclude the possibil ty of exposure. tention, and the best advice and instruction. . J, C, YOUNG, M. D. Corner of Montgomery and California streets, up stairs, opposite Wells, Fargo, k Co's Express Office. Cee at DEBILITY, OR SEMInal weakness—Dr. J. C. YOUNG addresses those who have injured themselves by private and improper indulgen. ces in that secret and solitary habit, which ruins the body ; and mind, unfitting them for either business or society. The following are some of the sad and melancholy effects produced by the early habit of youth, viz : Weakness of the back and limbs, pain in the head, dyspepsia, nervousness, irritability, symptoms of consumption &e. MENTALLY, the fearful effects on the mind are more to be dreaded. Loss of memory, confusion of ideas, depression of spirits, evil forebodings, aversion of society, selfdistrust, love of solitude, timidity, &e., are some of the evils produced. All persons who are afflicted with any of the above symptoms should not fail to callon Dr. Young and be at once restored to perfect health. Let no false delicacy prevent you, but apply immediately, and save yourself from the dreadful and awful consequet.ces of this terrible malady.— Weakoame of the organs immeeiately cured, and full vigor restored. . . . .

Indigestion, Fever and Ague, Incipient ©oensumption, and all irregularities in females; together with all diseases of Women and Children; also Nervousness, Palpitation of the Heart, &c., &c. Fersons affected with symptoms after being treated, should consult Dr. Young at once, as no disease is cured unless the patient feels perfectly well. If there is a particle of disease left in the system, it will break out at some future time, when least expected, or be handed down to the innocent offspring. Persons who have beep treated with merousy should be very cautious in believing that they are well, for itis a scientific fact that the mercury will mingle with the venereal, and form a disease a great deal worse than the original. All those who have reason to think, by bad feelings, that they have thus been treated . should consult Dr, Youne, and he willexawime theircares and tell them at once how they stand.
