Prospective Home-Seekers Who Are Looking Toward This State. J. A. Filcher, secretary, and manager of the State Board of Trade, writes as follows to this paper: Eprror Transcript:—I am often asked whether there are many strangers coming into the State, and whether there are many inquiries from prospective. home-seekers. Onur register of visitors answers the _ first question, which in spite of the inclement weather, showed that twenty people, whose hortes are outside of the State, visited our exhibit yesterday, and our correspondence answers the latter question. From among the letters opened in this morning’s mail, we make extracts as follows:B. F. Sharples, Bisémebesk, Pennsylvania, writes: “Have you any climatic maps of the Northern sections designating by lines or otherwise what is known as the warm ‘belt along the Sierra Nevada mountains? I would like to know how far North the warm belt extends, and through what counties, and about the distance from the Sacramento river, as myself and some friends. contemplate a visit to your ’ State in the near future with a view of locating there.” J. A. Robinson, Wrexham, Wales, writes: “Being desirous of information concerning the soil, crops and other circumstances to guide a settler in purchasing property or ‘selecting a suitable locality for settling, may I ask of you for some reliable publication on Northern California.” A. A. Browne, Pearson Block, Walla Walla, Washington, writes: “Having decided to make California my future bome, I take the liberty of asking you to send me.some books, pamphlets and mips of California which will give me some idea of that country, particularly the Northern part of the State. Please be liberal with all the information you can give me.” OC. Rockstroh, Blooming, Washington county, Oregon, writes: “It is my” intention to emigrate to Calitornia. I would beg you to send me some information about the soil, and the prices of land in Southern California. Iam a farmer, have a large family; and would bring with me $4,000. These are samples of daily inquiries, that in their scope cover every pari and industry of the State. It can readily be seen how mnch we are in need of literature regarding the different sections, and how advantageous such literature, placed by usin the hands of special inquirers, must be to the different localities. In order that our work may be as thoroughly effective as it ought to be, and as impartial between different sections as we desire it to be, every county in the State ought to have matter descriptive of its resources, conditions and advantages placed with us for distribution. Another point indicated by the above extracts, is the fact that prospective settlers are turning their attention more in the direction of the Northern part of the State than formerly. While this is true, it is also true that the Southern counties keep us best supplied with their litevature. Respectfully, J. A. Fiicuer, Sec. and Manager. A Progressive Paper. The San Francisco Bulletinis one of the best modern examples of what a newspaper can accomplish in the way of progress when up-to-date, enterprising newspaper men get hold of it. In the last five years it has increased in size from six to twelve pages, publishes every Sunday morning a twentyeight paye edition, and its claim to having the second largest circulation among the Pacific coast papers is. undisputed. The Bulletin certainly has a very large number of subscribers in Nevada county. “Young man,” asked the proprietor of the store, who was making the rounds of the various departments, “how can you afford to dress so elaborately and expensively on the salary we pay you?” “T can’t,” gloomily answered the salesman, “I ought to have more salary.” Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications as they cannot! reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by coristitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition pf the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you havé ‘a rambling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely cleged, Deafness is the result, and unless the jpflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of . ten are caused by Cattarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Oatarrh nar. Send for circulars; free. Bola by B J.

The Nevada City postoftice was WHISKY DROVE HIM INSANE. About Harrington’s Case. Yesterday’s San Francisco Oall says : The story, to the effect that young Harrington was made insane owing to his initiation in the “Ourly Bears,” an adjunct of the Native Sons of the Golden West, is not believed among members of the order. It appears that Colfax whisky had more to do with Harrington’s aberrations than the “Curly, Bears.” ; The initiation took place Saturday night, the 4th instant. Harrington was among ten that were given the degree, and he betrayed no sign that he was any worse for his experience. On Tuesday he was taken to the Stockton Asylum to be treated for insanity. Grand Secretary Lunstedt of the Na. tive Sons said yesterday that it was impossible for Harrington to have been injured by what took place. “The initiation was very simple, and could not have hurt any one,” said Mr. . Lunstedt. “The, young fellow had been drinking of late,and kept it up after the initiation, as before. Colfax says that Harrington was near insanity before the initiation took place. He had been treating Harrington for a blood clot on the brain. “After it was found that Harrington hed lost his mind some of the boys, in fun, stated that it was because of his initiation. That is how the story was started, and there is, to my mind, no foundation for it at all.” Last evening’s Colfax Sentinel says of the case : The Sacramento Bee, followed by the San Francisco papers, has given wide publicity tothe assertion, that Henry Harrington of Colfax, recently committed to the Stockton Insane Asylum from Sacramento, was driven insane from the effects of having recently taken the Curly Bear degree during the institution of a Cave at Oolfax Nov 4th. ee While it is true that Harrington became demented soon after taking the degree, it is also a fact that he had been ailing for some time previqus to the institution of the lodge. -Ourly Bear degree npon.the above date and Harrington was not the last candidate put through.
