But on an occasion like this we turn from the living present to a kindly remembrance of the days gone by. Many of you live them over again as you look at the nights of this Mining Fair, the days of “49 and the Pioneers. The journey of the ox-team across a continent, the famine and thirst and horror of the desert, the apprehensive fear of the Indian, the struggle, through the defiles of the Sierras, the life and luck of the mining camp, the longing for the loved ones . you left behind, the night when you lay awake wondering what you would do with the result of your strike, the next day when you found yourself dead-broke, the almost womanly attachment you formed for your partner, the friendships that remained steadfast when all glse was gone, the struggle to save the State to the cause of freedom—these are a few of your memories of the days when human nature was put on trial, and when in the end the gold of its latent nobility came forth, sublimated from all the dross. the memory of the Pioneers will never pass-—the traditions of Sutter’s Fort and Coloma and Table Mountain and Poker Flat will live forever. The very odor of the balsam of the pines, the scent of wild azal e:, the gleam of banks of red sandstone live in the pages of oar history, while the eloquence of Starr King and Baker will survive as jong as upon the broad domain of California the heart of a patriot will beat with love. You of San Francjsco owe a debt of gratitude to the Pioneers which was bognized by the grand celebration of Sant nae and is even still more fittingly recognized by this mineral display. Your splendid municipality is part of the building of their hands. Here upon her seven hills San Francisco sits enthroned, the guardian of the commerce of the Orient. In no other metropolis of the world can fountains play and flowers bloom in the streets all the year round. No other metropolis is flanked on one side by a harbor in which all the navies of all the nations could ride at anchor, d on the other by a park that Ocean lave its feet. Here shall we find revived the old feeling for the municipality which the Athenian felt for his Acropolis, which the Roman felt. for his Forum, which the Parisian still feels for his boulevard. The same contempt for obstacles which characterized the Pioneer will fire your true San Franciscan till grand aveunes will ross and surround your city, till oaks nd elms and lindens and acacias will ‘dine your drives and thoroughfares, till ibirds will sing in their branches, and fountains play in their shade—till the spirit of public improvements will so imbue every citizen that he will come to feel a proprietary interest in every. petal of every flower in your park, in every pebble on your beach and in every whitecap on your bay. We of the mountains and the mines wish you --gud-yours every good fortune, and in return for what you have done for us, in return for all that yon are at present doing for our every legitimate effort, we desire by the development of the mineral resourcos of California to do all in our powér to build up and improve and beautify your grand metropolis until its fame shall be such that every traveler on this earth shall eome to visit it before he dies. My friends, gold is the theme of the day we celebrate. But he ill interprets th. thought and the ideals of our people who imagines that in this State, or on this day,or in our heart of hearts we do not know that the claim of California to the gratitude of the nation can never rest alone on the fact of the material discovery of fifty years. ago, or the material produetion of the years that have followed. This is indeed the lion dollars of the royal metal, beyond ‘tier life and mining camp, contain a 'promise that here, in the veins of this ‘mighty commonwealth, in the life and fsoul of this great people, are other treasures, the outcropping of which we ght, lightning-defying, intellect honesty ; the gold of a sincere and THE TRANSCRIPT.

From Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble, INSTANTLY RELIEVED AND PERMANENTLY CURED. A New Discovery, But Not a Patent Medicine. Dr. Redwell relates an interesting account of what he considers a remarkable cure of accute stomach trouble and chronic dyspe by the use of the new discovery, Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.
