t# This is dreadful weather for Lokalitums. His explorations have to be earried
to places where the slush is so deep, wnd his
boots are in such a dilapidated condition that
his feet have not’been.dry since the storm set
in. Why didn’t Santa Claus, instead of giving him candy, present him with a pair of water tights? ‘Well, it’s perhaps not well ta
gruinble, and he hopes Santa Claus won't be
vffended—only the next time, if it makes no
‘difference to him, he might bear this in mind.
Bankert's No. 6’s ’ll do. _
All the items, now-a-days, are snow items.
The caving in of the New York Hotel has
set all the property holders on Broad street
te shoveling the snow off their roofs, which
nakes it a-very picturesque looking scene—
provided, however,you stand: from under.
A big shovel full of half melted snow, thrown
from the top of Kidd's brick building, is not
a very pleasant thing to receive on the top of
the head; is Lokalituins can assure you. ‘Ye
Gods! His Christian spirit makes him feel
ashamed of the exclamation whieh escaped
him. He looked up, with yengeanee im his
eye—ouly; however, to see another mess
coming down, which he had barely time to
dodge. Fortunately, no one happened to be
*hy to laugh at his misfortune—had there-been
any one there is no knowing to what excesses
his ite would have lead him.
Lokalitums would suggest that the poor
Chinamen; have been snow-balled enough.
Chinatown has literally been besieged since
the storm set in. Nothing short of famine
will induce. a Chinaman to leave his house,
und when he does leave it he recommends
his soul to his Josh, and his friends light the
wax-eandles which are no doubt intended to
light him the way to ‘the Chinamen’s paradise. Last aioe 4 they stood a regular assault from the outside barbarians, and
though their doors were firmly barricaded,
they suffered considerable damage. Their
drug store was well nigh demolished. This
is carrying the fun too far.
The roof of Temparance Hall gave way,
partially, under the pressure of the snow.
The damage done was not serious.
The stable of Mr. Worrell; of the Eagle
saw mill, was crushed also by the snow ;—
but as he has plenty of lumber, the loss don't
signify much.
Barns and stables, too numerous to men_ tion, have been crushed in various parts of
the town. If is to be feared that dite roperty wi'l suffer to a considerable extent, ba
the breaking of ditches. With proper attention, however, much damage ean be
prevented. ;
Ee” We noticed yesterday afternoon, hanging from the baleony of the National Exchange Hotel, a beautiful painting, descriptive of the united Siamese twins. It 1s the
finest thing of the kind ever unfurled in Nevada. Its dimensions are 40 x 60 feet, and
the painting is in oil. ;
By the way, we must congratulate Messrs.
Chang and Eng. on the selection of Mr.
Pridham for their agent. Few companies
are so fortunate in securing an agent at once
so efficient and gentlemanly.

CALIFORNIA PICTORIAL ALMANAC.—A
copy of this very neat and instructive calendar bas been sent us, by the publisher, E.
L. Davidson, of Sacramento, for which he
has our thanks. Besides the twelve monthly
calendar tables , it contains a great deal of‘information, peculiarly interesting to Californians, which constitute it an excellent book
of reference. Thickly interspersed through
the work are many well executed wood cuts,
illustrating scenes and industrial processes,
purely Californian. It ought to be well patronized by the almanre users of the State.
te The robbing of door plates: and signs
has become so frequent, that Lokalitums
feels constrained to eal! attention to it. He
thought at first that the thing was done in
the way of a frolic, as he himself has had
some experience, in times gone by, in. the
transposition of signs; but in such cases one
man’s sigan is always found stuck on some
other man’s door, which mukes the. whole
joke of the matter. But here the signs are
torn away, for no other purpose, apparently,
than to gratify a spirit of vandalism, as they
can be of no use to the rehhers.
EF On. the occasion of Tom. LaFont’s

SEAMLEss Caps—the most fashionable
and finishing touch to a gentleman’s cabasa—
have lately been introduced into this city.
A. Block & Co., has a large lot of these caps
on hand, and is selling them at a very low

THE Dear CHILDREN.—Queen Victoria
and Albert have -nine children—four boys
and five girls. These are all,except the Princess Royal, who married the Crown Prince
of Prussia, to be provided with partners by
marriage, and these partners must be found
among the royal families of the continent. As
most of the sprigs of royalty ou. the continent are poor, it will cost England a handsome sum of money to support in royal style
these children of her majesty.
DECEMBER STRAWRBERRIES.—Dr. Miller,
who has an orchard and vineyard near Rattle
Snake Bar, presented the editor of the Auburn Herald, the other day, with a basket of
ripe strawberries, fresh from the vines in his
garden.
LOOK ON THis PICTrURE.—The New York
Herald, in an article upon “The approaching race tor the spoils,” says:
“There was rather a severe run upon
Pierce, who, however, was too tough to be
killed. He promised everybody everything
and then allowed the people of hie kitehen
‘Cabinet to distribute the spoils. In 1856
the office beggars were comparatively few in
number, as the succession made no change in
the partisan policy of the Executive. But
now that there has been a grand overthrow
mn — affairs, the incoming President
will do well to prepare himself for a grand
assault, such an_one as was never before
known. All the Republicans, rich and poor,
expect office of some kind or other. There
will beat least a million of candidates for
fifty thousand. offices. Think of a million
letters of application and recommendation to
be read! Reflect upon the spectacle of a
million of individuals, rushing about asking
re in a frantic way; to “sign their papers.”
Sehold Washington city in the month of
March next, invaded bya -horde of hungry
and seedy patriots, with very large yellow
envelopes sticking out of their pockets.—
Imagine, if you can, the lying, the treachery,
the intriguing, the buttonholing, the jealousy,
the heartburning, the disappointment, the
moral filth and despair, which this shameful
business of place hunting will bring about:
Think of the hope deferred that maketh the
heart sick and the pocket empty ; the weary
waiting, as the spring glides away and the
summer months: steal on, while long bills
accumulate, and friends have leaned so much
money that they don’t really see ‘how they
can continue to indulge in that charming
though somewhat expensive luxury.”

uses of Opium or Morphine. This astonishing
remedy for CONSUMPTION and LUNG DISEASES,
has received the strongest testimonials: from
citizens ef the highest respectability, and is richly

The wide reputation which Dr. J. Hostetter’s ““ STOMACH BITTERS” have attained
during the past year bespeaks its excellence in a
more fercible manner than any words which we
ean offer. It renovates, purifies aad strengthens
the system, and aids the stomach in the performance ofits functions. It is regarded on all’ sides
as a sovereign specific, and, therefore, to proeure
it in the best possible way, should be the object
of the public. We commend it with more than
usual zeal and confidence, believing and knowing
is we do, that it stands foremost:ef the many
preparations of the day, for imparting strength
vigor and tone to the system, and possessing the
curative powérs for all simHar diseases arising
from a disardered stomoch. In the most severe
cases of crame, diarrhea, and weakness in the
stumach, the ‘ Bitters * have been rigidly tested
and always with the greatest success.
Asa Tonic, Hostetter’s Bitters are most de-lightful, especially before meals. Sold by all
