It con veys the idea of superior knowledge aud a consciousness of Jordiy excel lence that are specially galling to those who by circumstances or mis takes have been defeated. The phrase is never addressed to the happy and prosperous. We have always thougt that Diogenes was one of these “I told yon bo’s,” for he went around with a lantern in broad daylight hunting for an honest man. If he had not been a continuous fault finder, and hence warped his judg ment, he would have known that honest men never shun the light, and the night is the time to hunt for rogues. The true reason for using a lantern in midday was that he de sired to provoke inquiry that he might have the cynical satisfaction of telling all that asked him what he was seeking, and his search was fruitless. He wanted to make those around him feel uncomfortable. It is quite impossible that any one man should know all the world; but it is very possible that some one man— may know himself. Diogenes knew he was dishonest and judged all honor by the test of self. There are many like him who would insert an eleventh commandment in the dec alogue to read: ‘‘Thou shalt not be found out.” A French proverb says: “He accuses who excuses himself.” A child running tumbles over, and while the little thing is so grieved and sorry, is it not consoling to hear from lips that should kiss and com fort, “I told you so.” That mean phrase is so soothing to a tender heart. The boy, ever in pranks and mischief, the girl with roguish eyes and laughing curls—each effervescing with youth and wonton sport, romji- iug away the hours, often doing wrong and as bitterly repenting—are vastly cheered when they hear float ing on the breeze at every peccadillo that detestable, “Didn’t I tell you so?” Of course they remember, but they didn’t believe, and they recog nize the mistake with a pang that is added to by that loathed formula that destroys all the brightness and beauty that should reign in the heart It makes them feel as happy as when a nail has stuck in the foot. Ho on to maturer years. At every failure comes the ceaseless croak, displaying a consciousness of self-righteousness that is particularly irksome. It is hard, after doing our best, and not reaching the expectation of reward, or encountering a disaster, to have dinned in your ears, “I told you so.” The “I told you bo’s” are ill-tem pered and peevish. Happiness in others jars on their nerves. Discon, tent is written on the wrinkled brows and broods in the gloomy-eyes. They hate success. They never foretell that, and after it is attained they don’t come with their favorite male diction. They had ratliersend to the devil than to heaven that they may- repeat their dearly-loved saying. They delight in gossip and slander— they ever “thought it won id result in that.” Good nature shuns them laughter subsides to somber silence in their presence, joy- hies away- to other bosoms. Indulgence makes the practitioners morose, sullen and a bore. Self is the only deity they worsliip, ar.ci fault-finding they- re gard as his prophet. 1’leaslire, like sweet thoughts in a dream, is un known. Forty- years may be the old age of youth and thnyoutli of old age, but to these croakers a wearisome senility and utter wickedness belong to all the years of man. “Mirth, with thee 1 mean to live” sings rosy youth, till an “I told you so” comes along with story of the fall and misery of that which promised fair, and the song dies away with the breeze. Human beings desire sympathy. A longing occurs for it at times which is intense pain. We may feel that no profit grows where there is no pleasure taken. Lips often say God be merciful, who ne’er say God be praised, and the soul is sad and lone ly. We don’t want doleful sermons then, but desire appreciation mani fested by- tender words and thought ful acts, or the ready- slienee and listening that speak so sweetly-. Don’t we hate the heartlessness that as the mishap is detailed, repeats, “I told you so?” Childish fancies and superstitions are ever retained on the retina of memory. Who reared in the south has not heard the old negroes say that, if one could get to the end of a rainbow the devil would give him a bag of money? We were once at Niagara, had passed through the cave of the winds and reached a position where a rainbow in full circle ap peared directly- in front. We de termined to try it, and putting out a foot covered with a bingy-, yellow moccasin, stood for the first time at the end of a rainbow. Old Nick did not appear with the funds, but there was some satisfaction in making the experiment. Would it not have been horrid to have old practicality, in his usual hideous monotoue, croak out, “I told you so?” “I told you so” revels in misfor tunes, ill luck and falls from honor. He fairly- quivers with delight the deeper the depth that is reached. It pleases him to have his best friend totter. He loves to pull down; never helps to raise up. No good exists any- where that can’t be tainted, is his theory-; and he helps spoil it, that he may- seem wiser than his fellows. ting with all our resources first to the place where rewards are attained Advice is among the cheap things of earth. All are ready to give it Not many take it, though they are willing to impart freely. When w take or do not, and failure comes don’t crowd a man down. It is bad enough to bear the knowledge of the error without hearing that most dis mal of all notes, that travesty on solace and sympathy, “I told you “When we our betters see bearing our woes. We scarcely tliiiiK our miseries our foes,” is incomprehensible to him. He be lieves in comforting by detailing evil and picturing it blacker than it is. A word, a look, a glance, an in sinuation in turn is used to drag down a reputation and blast a life. All can mount above the plane of the “I told you so.” All can and should be merry in the glad sun shine that diamonds the rain drops, arches the cloud with glory, and colors earth and sky with beauty. Go high, beyond the effects of de pressing atmospheres. Resolve to de feat their forebodings of ill. Good fortune is not attended by the har bingers of woe. Forrest, that “heav en born general,” attributed his suc cess to “getting there first with the most men.” His command was, “Forward, men, and mix with 'em,” and he won. We can defeat the croakers in winning success by get- axttbisg bit a pegehebate AGE. We continually hear those who live alone in the past speaking of this degenerate age. They draw their inspiration from memory They look at the dark side only. We read daily of crimes, because steam and electricity have made all nations neighbors, and every morning w can read the gossip and acts of all lands. Papers are more enterpri sing than formerly. With the bad comes the greater good. We now have cheaper and better books, supe rior schools and far more exellent teachers. Youth is compelled to absorb information from social intercourse We have more churches and greater pride in them, a better ministry for more of its members are educated Ours is the era of free thought. States men will compare with any that have gone before. Eloquence is as strong and influential, greater in fact for more intellectual consistency is to be addressed, and the phonographer writes it down, and the journal prints that all may judge of the speaker’ power. In the olden times the grand efforts depended upon common re port and the mode they effected the particular hearer. For benevolence and practical Christianity, look at the numerous institutions for the relief of the poor and suffering, and the large sums raised annually for noble char! ties. Hearts beat as true and warm as they ever pulsed. Nature’s patent of nobility is more frequently stamped than in the olden time. Wars are dreaded now because they are swift and destructive, and more fatal weapons are invented to prevent them. We live in a time when ages are condensed into years and mouths into hours. The whole tendency is to further improvement. The duration of life is lengthened notwithstanding the hurry and ex citing changes. It is a prevailing impression that long life among our ancestors was more common than at present. Facts prove otherwise. In the latter part of the sixteenth cen tury one half of all who were born died under five years of age, and the average proportion of the whole pop ulation was but eighteen years. In the seventeenth century one half the population died under twelve years; but in the first sixty years of the eighteenth century one-half the population lived over twenty-seven years, and in the last forty-one half exceeded thirty-two years. In the beginning of the pres ent century one-half exceeded forty years. The average longevity of these successive periods has been increased from eighteen years in the sixteenth century to forty-three and forty-seven by the last reports. This increase in the duration of life is believed to be the result of advanced medical science improvement in the construction of houses, drainage of streets and su perior clothing. Who would exchange our present enlightened age for any era that the past can number ? RAILROAD BILL. The legislature has tackled the railroad bill, which has for its object a prevention of discrimination in rates of charges. It provides for three commissioners for terms of six years, with salaries of 53,000 each, a clerk at 51,000, and places the office at Atlanta. The bill gives the board almost unlimited supervision of the roads, with which the members must be totally disconnected. They must not even own stock or have a con tract, or be interested in any way, If such a bill can be perfected and honest, capable commissioners select ed, it will be the means of accomplishing great good. The salaries are large, and the governor who has the appointing power will be besieged with applicants, and the task will be difficult to select the right men—those the senate will con firm and the people approve—those that will do their duty, and cannot be influenced by the strong pressure which the companies can bring to bear. Railway management is diffi cult to learn and to have inexperi enced business men as commissioners would render the bill futile, should it pass. If carried out as the framers intend it will prove a blessing monopolies will have lost their power, and pools and rebates will be things of the past. Five commissioners are thought to be bet ter than three if for no other reason than the greater the number, the more difficulties will there be in con trolling them by* peculiar influences which very often bias the views of seemingly’ the best. The larger cities should each have a representative on the board. The main ideas of this committee bill were gathered from Massachusetts, and already amend ments and substitutes are being of fered. We heard a gentleman say that Governor Brown was in favor of such a commission of five men, with sala ries of 55,000 each, half to be paid by the railroad companies. We fear the Greeks bearing presents. That of which the majority of Georgia complains is not of high rates, but the discriminations. Cities anu towns which have only one line are made to pay for the losses at competing points, and pooling and rebates always render competition useless to those not within the charmed circle. People along the LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP. ic« Rrcrkt Orearreneca •» the Capl- Ul—loin or Gnwral ail Personal ■otters. Atlanta, Ga., August 23. Yesterday the legislature did au act of justice to the dead. The reception of the portrait of Dr Crawford W Long, donated by Mr H L Stuart, of New York, was an occasion replete with sadness as well as with interest. The family of the deceased were there and were escorted by Senators Hill and Gordon and by Gov. Colquitt. Gen. Gordon spoke feelingly of the life and labors of Dr Long, and asked the leg islature to receive his portrait and guard the rich legacy of his fame. The portrait was accepted by Hou 11C Y au- cey iu behalf of the alumni of the slate university. This is one of the sadueal instances of that injustice which the world is always doing to the best and truest of men. Half of the well informed people iu this state had never beard of Dr Long until he died. The flower of his fame has grown above bis grave and there, too, are placed the garlands of a fame which will not fade. It is hoped by all the friends of this truly great man that the movement to induce congress to appro priate §100,000 to his family will be successful. England did more than that for her discoverer of the applica tion of chloroform. The American congress has done far more for deeds less worthy. It is only justice to give some such recognition of the useful ness of a life whose labors for the benefit of man have not yet been fully appreciated. THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL was called Thursday in the presence of a large crowd. The scene was, of course, impressive. Every word ol the proceedings was caught with eager interest. Nothing important was done, as you know. The trial will begin in earnest one week from Monday. Mr Goldsmith maintains his hopeful view of his case, and bis friends cliDg to him with admirable fidelity. THE PROHIBITIONISTS seem to be getting bolder in Georgia. Several bills prohibiting the sale of liquor in sma’l towns have been passed, McDuffie county has been forced into the straight jacket of total abstinence. A bill, probably two bills, are pending, which declare that af ter the first of next January no spirituous liquors shall be sold in Georgia outside of towns and cities and in them only under certain restric tions. The majority of the judiciary committee of the senate have reported against the bill, but the minority are for it. There will be enough support of it to make an interesting debate. THE INVESTIGATING COMMITTEES are at work at their various tasks. What they are doing nobody outside seems to know. Frequently some wild story about the discovery of fearful frauds is started. The gossips take it and the hotel arcades ring with it for a while and then some one pricks the bubble, ar.d it is no more. Suspicion has been aroused to a degree that noth ing will satisfy but the most searching investigation in every quarter. When the committees report we shall know just how we stand. If they do not bring to light some fresh disgrace to the state, and if on the contrary they declare that the offices they have ex a mined are honestly administered then the public, always ready to be lieve evil rather than good, may be convinced that there is some honesty left in the land. personal and general. We miss the genial lace of Mr, Grimes from the senate, and hope to see him back at his post soon. Mr. Turner, of Brooks, is making a solid state reputation by his ability as the leader of the house. He is fre quently mentioned for congress. Geor gia needs him there. They now say they will he with us until the 15th of October. The city council of Atlanta has given the ground for which the legislature asked. Some of us may yet live to see the new capitol. The attendance of visitors on the ses sions is very large every day. Hun dreds of people come here just to see the legislature. Atlanta can well af ford to pay the price she offered for the privilege of being the capital. The story that Dr. Raines, the peni tentiary physician, had been neglectin his duty, and had been indulging too freely in drink, turns out to be a regu larly built slander. I don’t know who started it. Several persons to whom it has been traced have denied it. Dr Raines is a faithful officer. To-morrow Mr B Mallon, who has been the main spring in the success of Atlanta's superb public schools, will go to Huntsville, Texas, to organize the state normal school of that state. His place cannot be filled here as he filled it. It is almost time for some “distin guished” Georgian to rise and address the legislature. Mr Hill declines. Atlanta claims four blocks of new brick stores almost completed, and many new residences. F. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. lines away from rival roads are charged out of all proportion. The losses from rivalry at certain points are paid for at intermediate stations. If a bill can be devised so as to avoid these unjust discriminations and make rates equable and justly pro portioned, the oppressed people will have reason to thank and re-elect the present legislature. A jumble, or leaving holes that a train can run through with ease will be worse than no law. Their Weapons.—The chief reli ance of the republicans in Ohio is the expenditure of money. They have already gathered fifty thousand dollars from department clerks and government employes. Forster is very rich and is willing to pay liber ally when his own interests are con cerned. Others have embarked funds in the enterprise, and when that is exhausted several treasury-favored banks in New York will supply the balance. With the terrible odds against them the democrats are cer tain of winning, for Ohio has free voters who cannot be bought over to fraud and centralism. Proceedings Saturday. SENATE. Special to Enquircr-Sun.l Atlanta, August 23. The Senate met at 10 o’clock and was called to order by President Lester. Prayer by Mr Hudson, of the Senate. The roll was called and a quorum found present. The journal was read and approved. Leaves of absence were granted Messrs Bryan. McDaniel, Cabaniss, Clements of the 44th, Tison of the 10th, and Fain. A message from the governor, ask ing the attention of the senate to a sealed communication was here re ceived. On motion of Mr Preston the rules were suspended and the senate took up the bill to lease the Macon and Bruns wick railroad, to which the house had made some slight amendments. Two of the amendments were agreed to. An amendment requiring the im provements made by tne lessees to be valued at the expiration of the lease was discussed. Messrs Fain, Gum ming. Hawkins and Hudson thought it unnecessary. Mr McDaniel ex plained the object of the amendment. Mr Du Bose moved that the Senate refuse to concur in this amendment. Mr Fain opposed the motion, as the amendment did not hurt the bill. It really perfected the bill. The amend ment was concurred in. The other amendments offered by the house were agreed to and the bill as amended passed. On motion of Mr McDaniel the sen ate went into executive session, but the nature of the business there per formed was such as to forbid its com munication to the reporter. When the senate returned to open session the committee on agriculture made a re port, which was read. On motion of Mr Hudson, Mr Dun can was added to the committee on education. BILLS ON SECOND READING. Senate and house bills were read the second time. HOUSE BILLS ON THIRD READING. To provide for the redemption of lands sold for tax. Tabled. To amend section 951-2-3 of the code relative to lost bonds and coupons, so as to apply to lost coupons as well as to bonds and coupons. Passed, yeas 23, nays 1. To amend an act to amend an act to create a board of commissioners of roads and revenue for Monroe county. Passed; yeas 2«, navsO. To amend the act to incorporate the town of Thompson, so as to increase the tax on retail liquor dealers. Tabled. A message from the house announc ing its disagreement to amendments on certain bills, and consenting to a com mittee of conference, was received. To authorize the county commission ers of Houston county to purchase property, etc. Mr Troutman offered the evidence of a due advertisement of the intention to apply for the bill. Passed. To amend the law as to court pro ceedings so far as relates to cities with over 10.000 inhabitants. Mr Preston believed that- the bill is unconstitutional, and anrued to prove his position. Tf we allow two judges there is no reason why we cannot have a dozen. Another sealed enmmunieation was here received from the governor. Mr McDaniel said the bill was ren dered necessary because of the greatly increased business of the courts in large cities. There is no constitutional difficulty in the way. The senate discussed at length the bill allowing two judges to preside separately in superior courts in cities of 10,000 inhabitants, so as to expedite business, and it was tabled. The bill to prevent killing wild deer and turkies between the first of March and September failed by one vote, but will he reconsidered and passed Mon day. The senate again went info exeontive session and confirmed Richard Jack- son, judge of county court of Oconee. HOUSE The bouse met this morning at nine o’clock and was called to order by the speaker. Prayer by Mr Talliaferro. The roll was called, the journal read and approved. After due notice given, Mr Oliver, of Burke, moved to reconsider so much of the journal as related to the action of the house in adopting a resolution to pay the families of certain deceased inemoers the back or unclaimed per diem due said members. The motion to reconsider was lost by 63 yeas to 70 nays. Mr Crawford, of Muscogee, rose to a question of privilege and personal ex planation. He read from the Atlanta Dispatch an article signed “Anti Gov ernor,” and charging himj evidently, with being an agent of the state to col lect a claim against the State of Ala bama while he was still a member of the state legislature. Mr Crawford stated that the charge was untrue in to-to. That the facts are ihat as he had legal business in the capital of Ala bama, certain papers were entrusted to him for safety; that he did transport said papers to the governor of Ala bama, and did deliver them to him,but that all connection between himself and the said claim ceased when the pa pers passed out of his bands; that he never was or ever expected to receive any pay or reward for the trifle he had done; that he was not a collecting agent of the state nor an attorney for her; that he was of better stuff than to take money in violation of the laws of his people and state. Mr Daniel, of Heard, moved to lay the motion to reconsider on the table. The motion did not prevail. The previous question was called, and the call was sustained. Mr Redin, of Forsyth, called for the ayes and nays. The call was sustained and the clerk proceeded to the call with the following result: Ayes 63, naves 70. So the motion to reconsider did not prevail. Mr Jordan, of Wilkes, offered a reso lution that the clause in the rules relative to the reiusal of leaves of ab sence, except for providential causes, be repealed. Referred to the commit tee on rules. THE SPECIAL ORDER. The special order of the day was the consideration of the railroad hill and substitute. Mr Harp, of Chattahoochee, moved to suspend the rules for the purpose of having read the second time a bill for the relief of Benjamin F Matthews, of Chattahoochee. The motion pre vailed and the bill was read. The house then resumed the consid eration of the special order. Mr Pike moved to first take up the substitute offered by the committee The motion prevailed and the clerk proceeded to read the substitute, which the house was to take up by sections, Mr Wright, of Richmond, offered a lengthy substitute to be known as sec tion 1st, which provided against dis crimination against localities or sec tions. Mr Cox, of Troup, argued that io em power appointed commissioners to make laws, as was provided for in the bill, was unconstitutional. Mr Hall, of Spalding, spoke in oppo sition to Mr Cox’s position, saying that the law itself compelled the roads to keep tracks in good order, and that the bill did not give commissioners power to make laws. Mr Cox also spoke again on the hill, strongly opposing its passage. The house discussed the railroad bills to the hour of adjournment, and re solved to continue with it Monday. F. H. R CALIFORNIA.

Washington, August 23.—The secretary of war has received the fol io wiug telegram : Sax Francisco, August 23.—Hon. Geo. W. McCrary, secretary of war, Washington City: San Francisco is threatened with riot. Unlawful as semblages are now in the streets to resist the authorities. State troops are called into service by the civic authorities. The governor is absent from the capital. It is necessary to have ammunition at once. I re spectfully request that Col. McAlis ter, at Benecia arsenal, be authorized to issue fifty thousand cartridges to the state of California, directed to me. [Signed] John McComb, Brig.-Gen. Com’dg State Troops. The secretary of war replied as follows: Washington, D. C., August 23.— Col. McAlister, commanding Beue- cia arsenal, San Francisco:—You are authorized to issue to authorities of the state of California 50,000 cart ridges to be charged to the state on its quota for arms and equipments. (feigned) Geo. W. McCrary. A dispatch also has been sent to Gen. McComb, informing him his request has been granted. FEARS OF MOB VIOLENCE. San Francisco, August 23. — Strong guards were placed over the Chronicle business and printing of fices to prevent them from being sacked. M. H. DeYoung, who was at the Chronicle office at the time of the shooting, at once sought the city prison. He is now in company with Charles. For some time it was un certain what had been done with the brothers, many believing they had been removed to Fort Alcatraz for greater safety, but they are still at the prison. At the request of the committee of workingmen, headed by Clitus Barbour, their candidate for congress, they were allowed to select twelve men who were sworn in as special officers to stay about the prison and see that the DeYoungs were not taken away. Pursuant to a call, the workingmen are now assembling. It is announced they will march in a body to the prison, demand that the DeYoungs be sur rendered to them and if the demand is not complied with, they will at tempt to storm the prison and take them by force. It is very doubtful, however, if such an attempt will be made, as the authorities have made ample preparation and the building will be strongly defended. At latest accounts Kalloch was somewhat easier and one of his physicians in attendance addressed the crowd, saying there was a probability of his recovery. On the contrary another of his medi cal attendants states positively that he could not possibly live through to-morrow. Kearney has been sent for and will arrive in the city late this p. m. Great fears are entertain ed for the peace of the city during the coming night, and every prepa ration is being made to suppress vio lence. Public sentiment seems mainly to run against DeYoung,part ly on account of the manner of his attack, giving his victim no chance for defense or escape, and partly be cause the Chronicle in its assaults upon Kalloch has been abusive be yond all precedent in political cam paigns. ^ one was present but Durfee’s counsel, ThursdayTnM'uckalee'creek^ofsTstnr- | County Solicitor Reed, a few personal geon seven feet long, and weighing 119 pounds. —Mr Joe Carter, editor of tbe De- Kalb News, had a difficulty at Stone Mountain Thursday night with John P Parks, who was formerly an em ploye of Carter.

The wounds are painful but not serious. —State Line Press: The Chattahoo chee factory, owing to litigation be tween stockholders, has stopped opera tions for the present, and many of the employes have gone elsewhere.

Special to Enquirer-Sun.] San Francisco, August 23.—The circumstances leading to the shoot ing of Kalloch are as follows: After Kalloch was nominated by the work ingmen of the city as candidate for mayor, Charles DeYoung, in a speech at the state convention of Honorable Bilks, announced that he would compel Kalloeh’s withdrawal from the contest Subsequently he notified Kalloch that unless he with drew he would rake up his record in the columns of the Chronicle. Kal- loeh sent back word for him to go ahead, that lie could tell worse things about the DeYoungs than they could bring against him. On Wednesday last the Chronicle came out with a long article reviewing Kalloeh’s career in Boston and Kan sas, dwelling particularly on his re ported amours, and also ventilating his political and business record. On Thursday and Friday the Chronicle contained similar and more elabo rated articles, and dragged in Kal- loch’s father, now dead, recounting sundry immoralities on his part. Kalloch had advert’sed a mass meet ing at Metropolitan Temple last night, at which it was given out he would read a copy of an article pub lished some five years ago by B. F. Naphtaly, in a little paper called “The Sun.” This article was an at tack on the personal and family record of the DeYoungs of a most pronounced character, and led toan at tempt, on their part, to kill Naph- taly, which failed. DeYoung sent Kalloch word tnat if he read that article he would shoot him on sight. Last night an immense audience gath ered at Metropolitan temple and the street outside was packed with a crowd numbering thousands. Kal- IJch addressed the in-door meeting, scoring the DeYoungs mercilessly and reflecting on their personal record and family antecedents in a most direct manner. After adjourning the meeting in the hall he went out side, mounted a stand, and spoke briefly. After reviewing the attacks of the Chroncle upon himself he said: “In maligning the reputation of my father, who has filled an honored grave for many years, these journal istic vipers have rendered most vi cious retaliation on my part necessary and justifiable. Their dis graceful records make such an attack possible, and I am justified in pro nouncing them bastards and progeny of a whore.” He said he had the Sun article in his pocket [cries of “Read it, read it!], but he did not wish to expend all his ammunition at once. It would be published immediately in full in the workingmen’s paper, the Open Letter, and next Tuesday evening he would take it up and com ment upon it. meeting of workingmen—excite ment INTENSE. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] In accordance with notices posted on the streets, the workingmen as sembled in immense numbers at Saud Lots, and by 2 o’clock, notwith standing the crowds gathered on the streets in town, over ten thousand excited men were gathered around the rude rostrum, shouting cursing and calling for the blood of Kalloch’s assassin. Clitus Barbour took the stand and addressed the meeting, earnestly urging the working men to await the arrival of Kearney before taking further steps. The crowd, however, was eager for action and listened with bad grace to arguments tending to delay their vengeance. Barbour con tinued, dwelling upon the fact that they were unorganized and in no condition to cope with the police and military. In reply, the crowd demanded to be led at once down town to hang DeYoung and demolish the Chronicle office. Bar bour informed them that the presi dents of ward clubs were in session, and had decided to await the arrival of Kearney, and that if Kalloch died they were fully determined to hang DeYoung without delay. Tremen dous cheers greeted this announce ment. Wright, vice president of the party, addressed the fcrowd in the samestrain. A dispatfe&Was read from Kearney stating he Wolild be down from Vallejo by the"8 ! p. m. boat, asking that a eorttiftitffie be sent to Nallejo to give hiifaf tpftill statement of the condition ofiaflairs on the way down, and that any action be delay ed until his arrival. Flynn, Secre tary of the party, read a message from Kalloch. counseling the meet ing to be moderate, and to wait for Kearney’s arrival. William Wel- lock and Mr. Cross, of Nevada City, candidate of the party for attorney- general,who happened to be in town also counseled moderate meas ures. Stephen Maybill, who has been prominent at Sand Lots meetings heretofore, attempted to ex cite the two ready crowd to deeds of violence, but was suppressed by those on the stand, although the crowd was with Maybill and clamored wildly that he should be heard. Othe'r speakers sought to quiet the people, assuring them that in case Mr. Kal loch’s wounds proved fatal summary vengeance should be taken on his murderer. This was the only ex pression that called out the unquali fied approbation of the crowd, which finally agreed to remain quiet until Kearney’s arrival. There is no doubt that in the event of Kalloch’s death a determined effort will be made to storm the jail and lynch both the DeYoungs. Military com panies and clubs of the work ingmen are meeting and organ izing and the excitement con tinues at the highest pitch. Kal loch remains at his study at the Metropolitan Temple, and cannot be removed. Throngs of men, wo men and children are gathered in the vicinity, but ropes are stretched across the street, and quiet is pre served as far as possible in the imme diate neighborhood of the building. Kalloch’s condition remains practi cally unchanged and extremely crit ical. At 6:30 Kalloch was in a much improved condition. A slight exam ination has been made, and physi cians express the opinion that there is good ground for expecting his re covery. ENGLAND. ■or* Bain.

The bank of France has now sold at wholesale its small stock of bar gold and foreign gold coin. One of the chief bullion houses of Paris estimates that the insufficient crops of England, France and Ger many will necessitate purchases in the United States to the amount of £20,000,000. ^ JAPAN. General Grant— Epldemlr. San Francisco, August 23.—The steamer China arrived to-day with advices from Yokahama to July 29th, reporting that entertainments in honor of Gen.

An epidemic is raging in southern ports, which a majority of physicians pronounce of Asiatic quality. Of its fatal effects none |doubt. Quarantine at Yoka- hama is fully respected only by the United States envoy. ftmi.ll Pox at fton Antonio. New York, August 23.—A special from San Antonio, Texas, says, ex citement is running high here again about small pox, which has infected five families of whites. Mr. Karlein a prominent saloon keeper, Miss Poer the confectioner's daughter, Jacob and Henry Juselmen and child in the third ward are reported down with the disease. Heretofore small pox has been confined to Mexicans and negroes. Ten cases appear in the report of the health physician, ViJez, of the week. Two deaths have oc curred to-day and one yesterday, comprising Rebecca Farey, Mrs. Johnson and Jacob Juselmen. Much indignation is caused by persons afflicted with the disease walking about the streets causing danger of spreading it. An Important Geological Poet. Geology has shown us that nature accomplishes her greatest revolutions in the earth’s surface conformation slowly. Every year the river makes its channel deeper, the glacier wears a deeper gorge in the Alpine rock, and the ocean tide deposites the sand it has crumbled from the rocks upon which it breaks. We note the earth quake and the devastating hurricane; but these changes are so gradual man seldom observe them until the chan nel has become overhanging cliffs, or a mountain has disappeared before the icy stream, or the ocean has given us a Florida. Thus it is in disease Our attention is attracted by acute diseases, as fevers, cholera, etc., while chronic diseases (often tbe most dan gerous in result), being slow in their development, are seldom noticed un til they have made an almost inefface able impression upon the system. Persons believing themselves com paratively healthful are ofttimes the victims of these diseases, and only become aware of their presence when relief is almost impossible. Diseases of the liver and stomach are the com monest of these chronic affections. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov ery and Pleasant Purgative Pellets are never failing remedies for these diseases. They produce a healthful secretion of the bile, prevent indiges tion by regulating the bowels, and impart a vigorous tone to the whole system. YONGE & GRIMES, Real Estate A gen Ik, Wo.

P \IN in the right side, under the edge of the rite, increases on pres sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to tiie top of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stom ach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sen sation in the back part. There is gen erally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone something which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and lie com plains of a prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them existed, yet exam ination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been exten sively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, in cases of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a fair trial.
