The Marysville Appeal has set its seal of. condemnation upon the debris dam built by: the Liberty Hill hydraulic mining company, and upbraids Judge Sabin of the U. 8. Circuit Court for permitting a fifteen days’ trial of the efficacy of the structure. The Appeal writer has not visited the mine, and is not informed as to the details of the measures taken to prevent the sli@kens from passing into the main channel of Bear river; but on general principles it bitterly criticises the action of the court in permitting a trial to be made. It asserts without knowing what it is talking about that there is no use in trying’ to hold back the mud and sand behind the dam, and then adds that the dam will surely be swept.away by high }g0 much money and risk so many lives in trying to capture the counterfeiter? : Governnient {bonds and noteg, surely the enough to stand any loss his act may confer !’’ ill afford to be put to continual financial loss if such desperadoes _ A PERSONAL CARD, A Matter in Which the Public Should Have a Deal of Interest.

Itis only the. valuable thing tha t is counterieited; it is only in the light of purity and virtue that impurity and vice can be known. No one 1n these days would counterfeita Coniederate bond or note. People who commit fraud alwaysdo it by simulating the bighest virtue ; by preying on the cleanest reputation, by employing the . fair name’ol virtue with which to give respectability to vice. Let us explain: seven or eight years ago, 80 we have been iniormed many times in.public print, a New York Stute gentieman was pronounced,as many millions have -peen pronounced betore, incurably ick of an extreme disorder. by # izgestions which he believed were providentual, he was. jea to the use of a preparation which haa been for several years employed by a.select few physicians in New York City and one or two other prominent places. ‘Ihe result was that he was cured, he wnom doctors without s@im@ber, and of conceded ability, seid was incurable. Haying secured possession of the formula, absolutely and irrevovaply, he determined to devote a portion of his accumulated wealth to the manufacture and saie ot this remedy tor tne benefit of the many who sutfer as he suffered, in apparent hopelessness. In -Jess than three years, so_ tremendous became the demund for this remedy, and so exalted the reputation, that he was obliged for his purpose to erecta laboratory and warehouse containing four and a quarter acres ot flooring, and filled with the most approved chemical and manufacturing devices. Frubably there never was a remedy that has won such. a meritorious name, such extraordinary sales, and has accomplished so much good for the race. Unprincipled parties, who flourish oniy on the ruins of others, saw in this reputation and sale an opportunity to reap a golden harvest (not legitimately, not honororably), for which purpose they have made imitations and substtutions of it inevery sec’‘on of the country, and many druggists, who can make alarger profit on these imitation goods, olten comp omise their honor .by forcing a sale upon the unposted customer. Yes,; undoubtedly the manufacturers could well atford to ignore such instances of fraud so far as the effect upon themselves is concerned, for their remedies have a constant and unremitting sale, hnt thoy foal it to bo thoim <tuty to warn the public against such imitations and substitutions, mon-secret and otherwise. . ‘Ihe individwho countenances their sale,alone suffer in mind, body, and estate therefor. The authors*of some of these fraudulent practices have been prosecuted and sent to prison for their crimes; but there is another class_who-claim to know the formula of this remedy, and one Sunday-School journal, we are told, has prostituted its high and holy calling so far as to advertise that for twenty-five cents~it will send all new subscribers a transcript of ,the Warner formula ! fhis formula by the way, must be a wonderiul kaleidoscopic affair, for there is hardly a month passes some paper is not issued which pretends to give the only correct formula! . The manufacturers inform us that they would be perfectly will‘ing that the public should know. what the tre formula of Warner’s Safe Cure is (none that have been published are anything like it), but evenifevery man, woman, andchild in the United States were as familiar with this formula as with their A B C’s they could not compound the remedy. . The method of manufacture is a secret. It is impossible to obtain the results that are wrought by this remedy if one does not have the water. The wish is father to the thought, and must tend to demonstrate more plainly than ever to the people of the State at large that the ignorance of our contemporary on the debris question is excelled by nothing but its bitter hatred and narrow-mind prejudice against the miners and all that pertains to mining. Fortunately the United States Circuit Court is peyond and above thé influence of . those who do the dirty work of the anti-mining blackmailers, _ cranks and demagogues, and their miserable misrepresentations and idiotic ravings can have no influence on the outcome. __ Se aEEEEhe die ate : A.

W. Sigourney is in town on ges around Goose, Albert and silver Lakes'in Lake county, Oregon. His partner is Crawford J. Cox, son of Fred Cox, formerly a resident of Grass Valley, this county, but now living at Sacramento. These two young gentlemen have the largest and most valuable ranch in that part of the Coast. It consists of rolling and well watered grazing lands, furnishes first-class feed for the stock and has numerous large buildings onit. They own between 14,000 and 15,000 head of cattle, worth from $19 to $22 per head, 560 horses and 300 mules. During the coldest months of the season the animals are wintered in a sink about 20 miles from the Albert ranch and near Lakeview, where they thrive splendidly: The marketing place is Cottonwood, Shasta county, where is always found ready sale for the cattle which are shipped by the purchasers to San Francisco. In the winter months about fifteen men are employed as. drovers and in other capacities, while the summer force consists of from thirty to forty hands. Messrs. Sigourney and Cox make their headquarters at a point five miles from Alturas, and both of them give their personal attention to the management'of the business. As they are energetic, intelligent, and devote themselves closely’ to the affairs of the enterprise, it is liable to prove as eminently successful in the future as it has in the past. Aaron Martin, another young gentleman from Nevada City, is prospering finely in the same section of. country. He is interested with Mr. Jopp, a man of considerable means,in the ownership of a large general merchandise store at Alturas. Messrs. Jopp & Martin also own 850 acres of land 20 miles from Alturas. Their ranch is stocked with a thousand or fif teen hundred head of cattle and two hundred horses. Their property is one of the most valuable of any of its extent in northern CaliIN PAY GRAVEL. Important Strike at the Centennial Mine. : ‘ This week the shaft in the Centennial drift claim, Washington township, struck bedrock in the long-sought channel at a depth of about 250 feet, and developed a fine body: of pay gravel. The pumps now in use being of insufficient capacity to handle the large quantity of waterccoming in were removed shortly after the strike was made, and operations will not be resumed until Spring when new and heavier machinery will be put in. 3 The Centennial claim is owned by an. incorporation, the stockholders in which principally reside at Gold Hill and Virginia City, Nevada,.Prospecting was commenced there in 1875 or perhaps -earlier undor the superintendence of Major Downie, and has been prosecuted most of the time since then. Long tunnels have been run and shafts out down, the expenditures probably ‘approximating’ $75,000. The stockholders have put.up assessments after assessment (the 22d one will be delinquent this month) with a promptness that evidenced their implicit faith inthe eventual discovery of arich mine. That their persistence and nerve are now in afair way to be liberally rewarded:is quite certain. The finding of the main channel and pay gravel by the Centennial Company will put new life into that part of the county and give an impetus to gravel mining along the rich and extensive channel that traverses the Centennial and neighboring locations. Made an Assignment. — Alf. Berg, the well known jeweler and watchmakdf at Grass Valley, has made an assignment forthe benefit of his creditors. Jacob and Joseph Weissbein, the Grass Valley bankers, have Leen appointed assignees with bonds fixed at $6,000. Mr. Berg has not yet filed his schedule and inventory showing the condition of his financial affairs. ‘The law allows him ton days in which to do 80.

He has more than one hundred kinds of candies, plain and fancy. The best ofall this is that Mr. Tam can afford to sell at prices 25 to 40 per cent lower than . ” he has been able todo in the past.

Commended by the Ladivs. If any lady ig unfortunate enough to be troubled with freckles, moths, pimples or an unsightly complexion, the use of Ainaxab,the Egyptian Elixir, will make her skin soft, clearand brilliant. There is no skin which will not be improved by it. Itdoes not injure the skin, but rids it of impurities andthe effects therefore are permanent. There are many ladies in Nevada county who use it, anyof whom will cheerfully testify as to its merits. W. D. Vinton, the druggist at this city, is selling it at the reduced price of 75 cents a bottle in order toclose out a consignment that has been put in his hands for rapid dispocal. The usual price is $1 per bottle, and the opportunity to buy it for less will not last long. 2t . The Holiday Trade. The holiday trade is beginning to assume big proportions, our dealers say, and they feel satisfied that they willdo.a thriving businessin that line this month. The people from the surrounding’country are already arriving in good numbers to purchase New Year and Christinas gifts for their dear ones.
