R. L. J. CLAPKAY returns his sincere thauks to
his numerous patients for their patronage, and
would take this opportunity to remind them that he
eontinues to consult, at his Institute, for the cure
of all forms ot Private Disease—such as Syphilis,
Gonorrhea, Nocturnal Emissions, and all the consequences of self-abnse., In the first stages of Syphilitic or Gonorheeal diseases, he guarantees a cure ina
few days, without inconvenience to the patient or
hindrance to his business. Whena patient, by neglect orimproper treatment, has developed the secondary symptoms of Syphilis, such as buboes or painful swellings on the groins, or ulcers in the throat
and nose, which if not checked, destroy the soft parts
and cause the bones to mortify, separate and come
away, leaving the suffereran object hideous te 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 se as to
pre-dispose to consumption or other constitutional
disease, the Doctor guarantees a cure or asks no compensation. .
In Rheumatism, chronic or acute;in Dysenterry, or
Diarrhoea, he has safe and effectual Remedies, For
the treatment of the consequences of self abuse.such
as nocturnal emissions, nervousness, timidity, headache pains in the back and limbs, with general weakness loss of appetite, loss of memory, injury to the
sight, restlessness, confusion of ideas, dislike for soeiety, anc a feeling of weariness ot 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 guaraniee a
eure or ask no compensation. He can be consulted
free of charge, and invites all to call, as it will cost
them nothing, and may be much to their advantage.
His office is on Sacramento Street, below Montgomery, opposite the Pacific Mail Steamship Company’s Office Office hours from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M.

The undersigned, desirous of acquainting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly aMicted
where a permanent relief of their sufferings may be
ebtained, feels it his duty te publicly express his sincere gratitude to Dr.L. J. Czapkay, for the permanent
recovery of his health. Borne down by the distressjing symptoms incident to the vicious practices of uneentrollable passions ia youth, depressed in body and
inind, unable to perform even the most trifling duty
imposed upon the daily avocations of life, I sought
the advice of many physicians, who at first regarded
my disease as or trifiing importance, but, alas! after
# few week, and in several! instances Monthn, wf thet:
treatwent, . found to my unutterable horror, that
instead of relief the symptom 5 became move alarming
intheir torture, and being finally told by one that
the disczse, being principally contined to the brain,
medicines would be of liitle consequence, I despaired
of ever reg:ining my health, strength and energy;
and as a Jast resort, and with buta faint hope called
upon Ir. Czapkay, who, after examining my case,
prescribed some medicine which almost instantly relieved me of the duil pain and dizziness in my head.
+ neouraged by this result, Lreselved to place inyself
immediately under his care, and, by a strict obedience
tu his directions and advice, my head became clear,
my ideas cBllected, the constant pains in my back
and groins, the weakness of my limbs, the nervous

or excitement, the misanthropy and evil forebodings,
the self-distrust and want cf confidence in others, the
incapability to study and want of resolution, the .
frightful, the exciting, and at times the pleasurable
dreams at night, followed by involuntary discharges,
have all disappeared, and in faet, in two months after
consulting the Doctor, I felt as if inspired by a new

Frazer River Mines.
Notwithstanding they temporary excitement with regard to the, razef River mines,
we have the fullest assurance from every
part of the State that the miners of Califernia ‘are doing quite ag well as they have ever
heretofore done at the corkesponding season
of the year. We allude to these evidences of
mining prosperity as an-Ofisett to the periodical croakings whichissatisfied and uneasy perdons give,every year or two,for runnigg after phantom fortunes, which interested epeculators ever~and anon hold up
before thieir excited imaginations with a

It would appear from the present excited

Since the above wasin type we have rereceived the Marysville Weekly Wews—we

that Gen. Allen suggests Marysville as the
most appropriate place for holding the proposed convention, and the week of the State
Agricultural Fair as the time. There is
probably no place in the State where the

who ean be satisfied with ordinary Celifornia
profits and a total deprivation of most of
the comforts of the California miner, may
do well.
California will, in the end, be vastly beriefited by this excitement. Thousands who
are now merely eousumers will per force
become producers in the new El Dorado, and
as that country must, for some years, necessarily draw her supplies from San Fran-,
cisco, she will ta just sach an extent bénefit
this State. The British Possessions, in that
quarter, wil} hold the same relation to California that this State now does to the Atlantic States, and Frazer River gold will flow
into the Golden Gate in the same manner as
California gold now goes to fill the coffers
of Eastern capitalists. The vallies of Frazer
River sever ean supply the wants of a lar
‘population, by reason of the inclowency a?
the climate—that sapply must be drawn
from the fertile plains of California, and the
new El Dorado will thus beeome a tributary
of our own Golden State. While we would
not discourage a healthy emigration thither,
we would caution emigrants to look before
. they leap, and not go north with too extravagant expectations, else blank disappeintment will crush thei: energies, and render

Windmilis for Mining PeFposes.
A party of miners aad mechanicsin one of
the mining ceunties have formed a company
for the purpose of raising water for mining:
Purposes by means of windmills. There are
many localities where an abnndance of
water cao be found at a depth of from 15 te
25 feet. It would not take man y shafts
with windmills attached to raise an ordiaary
Sluice head. The mills could be put up
roughly but in asubstantial manner for
$50,00 or $60 each. These mills have
proved universly succesful for irrigating
purposes, and why may they not be made
useful for purposes of mining? Each mill
would raise from two to four inches of water.
There are many localites where a single
sluice head might be thus obtained, which
might preve of immense value. The idea is
& novel one, and well worth a thought.

The Silver Miines of the Gadsden Parchase—Arrival of Ore at San Franciseo,:
Three tons of silver ore, the first extensive
shipment, arrived at San Francisco on the
14th of May, from the Sonora Mining Com‘pany’s mines, on the Gadsden Purchase.-—
Thig ore wag transported by_ wagons. dis:
Diego, thence by steam to San Francisco,
where it will be smelted. The total cost of
transportation is about $300 per ton, and it
is estimated that the ore will average about
$800. There are now about 24 tons more,
on the way, or arrived at San Francisco, and
about 70 tons on the surface at the mines.—
The wagons used to transport the ore to the
coast were loaded with machinery on theif
return, which will soon be put in operation
for the purpose of smelting the ore at the
mouth of the mine. The Company say that
they have an inexhaustable quantity of ore
in the mine, equally as rich as any which
has been raised. The mine is no doubt a
very valaable one. Itis an old working
and known as the Heintzleman mine.
Minera Weatrs or NewrovnpLanp.—
The almost totally unknown regions of Newfoundland are likely to become quite as valuable for their mineral wealth as the seaboard of that locality has long been for its
fisheries,
These mines were first discovered by the
explorations which were made in 1851 for
the great electric telegraph enterprise across
that island. The minerals hitherto disceyered in workable quantities are copper and
lead. Twh copper mines were opened in
1856, near Conception Bay, each with a
company representing a capital of $10,000
for the purpose of exploration. Both companies have shipped a quantity of ore to
Liverpool, which have yielded rich returns,
Another company has beeu formed under the
title of the “ Newfoundland Mining Association,” with a capital of $250,000. The object of this company is “to search for and
develop the mineral resources of the Colon > aad
A lead mine ha3 been opened with flattering
prospecis at Placentia Bay. 100 tons of ore
shipped to Liverpool yielded 78 per cent. of
galena. The mine has since been gold for
$200,000, cash payments. A copper lode is
now being worked near the same locality by
a staff of Cornish miners,
