They arc not a vile Fancy Drink, madeot Poor Hutu, Whiskey, Proof Spirits ami Refuse Ll <i it ors doctored, spiced and sweetened to please the taste, called “Tonics,” “Appetizers.” “Restorers,” sic ., that lead the tippler on to drunkenness and ruin, but are a true Medicine, made from the Native Roots and Herbs of Cali fornia, free from nil Alcoholic Stimulants. They are the GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER and A LIFE GIVING PRINCIPLE, a perfect Reno vator and In rig orator of the By .stem, carrying off all poisonous matter and restoring the blood to a healthy con dition. No person can take these Bittors according to directions and remain long unwell,provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair. They arc n Gentle Purgative no well ns n Tonic, possessing, also, the peculiar merit of acting as u powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inlinmmution of the Liver, and all the Visceral Organa. FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, in young or old, married or single, at llic dawn of womanhood or at tiie turn of life, these Tonic Bitters have no equal. For Inflammatory anil Chronic Rheuma tism nuil Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bil ious, Remittent nud Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys aud Bladder, these Bitters have been most successful. Such Diseases arc caused l*y Vitiated Blood, which is generally produced by derangement of the Di gestive Organs. DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Headache, Fain in the Shouldcrs.Couffhs, Tightness of tho Chest Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach. Dad Taste in the Mouth. Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of tho Iloart. Inflammation or the Lungs, Pain in the regions of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the oflsprings of Dyspepsia. They invigorate the Stomach and stimulate the torpid Liver and Rowels, which render them of unequalled effi cacy iu cleansing the blood of all impurities, aud impart ing now Ufa and vigor to the whole system. FOR SKIN DISEASES, Eruptions. Tetter, Sal- Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car buncles, Ring-Worms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch,Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Dis. eases of the Skin, of whatever name or nature, aio liternUy dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by tho use ot these Bitters. One bottle in such cases will convince t lie most incredulous of their curative effects. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find Its im purities bursting through tho skin in Pimples, Erup tions or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in tho veins; clcanso it when it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the svstem will follow. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist, there is scarcely an individual upon five face of the earth whose body is exempt from tlu presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the body that worms exist, but upon tho diseased humors and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of disease. No System of Medicine, no vermifuges, no anthelmintics, will tree the system from worms like these Bitters. J. WALKER, Proprietor. R. 11. MCDONALD & CO., D*"'eglsts and Hen. Agents, San Francisco.

The ml ol “livaig togi tisei” pl.-as ural.ly is greatly promoted iiy the habitual exchange ot the liule cour tesies of life ; they me never unim portant, never unaccept .lile, ate al- Xvays gra'efu! to the feelings, ami aie a constant well spring ol agreea ble feelings in every household. Shall lumbers and siaers be less careful of the feelings of. n • another, than those oi a stranger? and as be tween husband and wile, should there be less effort at gentleness of depot uncut, ot suavity of manner, and courtesy of expression than is extended to outsiders, who have no special claims and may never be seen again? Shame upon any mem ber of any faintly \\ ho neglects those aili cliooate attentions, and ihose suavities of deportment towards the members ol the household and even lo the lowest servant, which cannot tail lo elevate the giver, and to draw from the receiver those willing and spontaneous iceiprocities which make ot family associations a little heaven below. Fault-finding is an apple’of dis cord in multitudes ol families.— There are some persons who, from ugliness ot temper arising liom b >di ly infiiinity, or an inherent blight of nature, ate lorevei tin.ling fault, ei ther tin something said or done, or omitted to be said or done ; if not in the family, then out of it. Some where or something is always going wrong with them ; in every remark they make theie is vinegar and bit terness; their whole nature seems to be in a condition of chronic snarl; their adjectives ate of the most sweeping character; everybody is a ‘liar,’ or ‘swindler’ or ‘scoundrel,’ even if their short comings are ol the slightest character. Such p< i sous are dt tnoralizers of the com munity jit which they live, and of those with wl om they associate ; and as to the family in which tliev reside, they ate a perpi tint! storm, a lotnado, and a curse.' This com plaining, fault-finding trait does not assume these gigantic propottions ol enormity at once, but always comes by’ slow- degrees and lo .g practice. Let the reader fear tailing into this great condemnation; let him In* a Irani id il hum this good hour, a- to resolve never io find limit with auv body or anything or eliaract. rz any otters conduct tor omission or commission, until he has “slej t on it,” thus giving the clearer judgment of a renovated brain an oppoituniiy of more dispassionate exercise. Let every person of intelligence, refinement and culture, bear in mind that in “living together” with others pleasantly, happily, it is ol essential importance to practice the virtues ol uniform gentleness, deference and courtesy, rc.in inhering that one of the most cardinal points in the pro portion of domestic 'enjoyment and ol 'family happiness is to cultivate self-sacrifice; for it is this which cherishes love in the heart of the giver, and kindles il in those for whom the sell sacrifice is made; or lo frame the principle in a phrase which all can comprehend, remem ber and apply, that is the noblest heart in any household, which gives to the others the first choice, and leaves to others the best places and the best things.— Hall's Journal oj Health. Tlte Peace of Gad. “The sun is very hot on this side ol tlte boat,” said a portly gentle man, who, with two ladies, w’as standing on the deck of a large steamboat. “It is boiling,’’ said one of the ladies, ftelfully, raising a liny para sol. “It will ruin my complexion; and on the oilier end ot the boat it is blowing a perfect gale; for my part, 1 don’t see any pleasure in it.’ “Nor I,” said the other. “It is hollow, like all the other so-called pleasures. I don't believe tliete is such a Rung iu the world as happi ness: I would be glad to hnd even peace; but the more you cry, ‘Peace, peace,’ the more yoq lee! that there is no peace.” They were startled by a voice, saying, “Oh that thou hadst heark ened to My commandments! then had thy peace been as a river.” Turning, they saw an old man leaning heavily on a cane, for he was evidently past his threescore and ten years. Hts garments were coar-e and ill-filling, thotigli they were care fully brushed ; and the ladies drew back with a dignified air. Tin-gen lleman was about lo order the in truder away, but bis gaze was fixed afar ofl, on the calm flowing waters of the river, and they contented themselves with drawing away. The lady, who had last spoken, leaned over the side of the boat, and looked for a time down into the wa ter; then she said: “That wasn’t a bail comparison sos the old to! low, a trout peace flow ing ns a river. Jo-:! ihhrk o! it ; calm, hut deep, never ce. .-mg, nev er ending; lost only in an ocean ol the same. 1 wnmhl give die world for such a peace as that." “’There is a river, the siieams whereof sh ill make gin I the cfv ol God.” The old man Wis stilt gaz ing at the blue waters, and perhaps was speaking al u l < neon ( ions!v; hut ail angry exelum .Imiii i ,-c perl iroai tile gentleman, ami tiny walk ed hastily away.

He is the happiest man 1 ever saw, and I meet with a great many men in m\ trips up and down the river,’’and the busy captain bowed and passed on. In the afternoon, a thunderstorm arose, the liglt niug flashed, tlte thint der pealed, the waters foamed, while the b at shook as il it were a ieed at the mercy ol the storm. The passengers were lerrili -d, ly dies shrieked, and eVt n sturdy men pas and.

God shall help us, and that right ea ly.” The terror stricken passengers al most felt as if he were a prophet, for even us he spoke the clouds iiioke. and though the rain still fell gently, a beautiful bow spanned the waters. “ Behold 1” Said Father IL id “Behold the sign ol God’s promise, and heal peaceand he quietly slipped out of the cabin, followed by Mis.- Potter, who grasped his hand, and asked, “.Sir, how can I obtain this lest and peace ? ” IL- looked at her with eyes full ol love and pity, and said, gently. “Jesus said: ‘Come unto Me, all ye that labor and ure heavy laden, and 1 will give you rest you rest.’” “I have heard that often before,” said she, hut it se< ms new.” “Yes, it is the old, old story, yet ever new ; hut it is all you can do. Only trust Him and follow Him, then indeed the peace of God shall keep your In-art sml mind through Christ Jesus.” —— The Precise Dale of Christ's Cruci fixion.—A distinguished German scholar. Herr Kleb, it; a recently published work, considers that he lias settled the true dale of the cru cifixion. He shows that there wns a total eclipse of the moon concomi tant with the earthquake which oc curred when Julius Caesar was as sassinated on the 15th ot March, B. C. 44, He has also calculated the Jewish calendar to A. D. 31, and the result of his reseaches cornfirms the facts recorded by the Evangelists ol'the wonderful physical events that accompanied llte crucifixion. His astronomical calculation also shows that on the Glh of April, A. D. 31, there was a total eclipse of the sun, accompanied, in all probability, by the earthquake spoken of in Mat thew. This mode of reckoning is verified by another calculation back ward from the great total eclipse ol April, ISIS, which also gives April 6th as the date of the new moon A. D, 31. As the vernal equinox of the year fell on March 25, and the Jews ate their Easter lamb and celebrated their Feast of the paasQver on the following new moon, it is clear April 6 was identified with Nisau 14 of the Jewish calendar, which, more over, was on Friday, the day of preparation for the Sabbath, and this agrees with the Hebrew Tal mud, so that astronomy, archieoto gy, traditional and Biblical history seem to unite in fixing the dale of the crucifixion at April 6 A.

Sometimes it comes to us in the midst of care, or sorrow, or irksome business; and then we turn away and listen, and hear it ringing through the room like a silver bell, with power to scare away the ill spirits of the mind.— How much we owe that sweet laugh! It turns the prose ol life to poetiy, and flings showr rs of sunshine over its darksome hours, To Make Boys Good Farmers. —The American Agriculturist says : Induce them to take an interest in the farm, tri the implements, in the slock ; tell them all your plans, your successes and failures : give them a history of your own life and what you did, and how you lived when a hoy ; hut do not harp too much on the degenerate character of young men of the present age; praise, them when you can, and en courage them to no stiil better.

Talk agricul ture rather than politics ; speak ol 1 the importance of large crops, of good stock, of liberal feeding, and of the advantage of making animals comfortable, rather than of hard times, low prices and high wages.— Above all, encourage the hoys to Vead good agricultural books. Pa pers are well enough, but an intelli gent boy wants something more.— Get bint some good agricultural book lo study. Read it with him, and give him the benefit of your expcii ence and criticism. When he has mastered this, give him another.

Simpkins?” » “Only two or three, sir.” “Only two or thiee ; why, it must be quite a tax upon your profits.” “Oh, no, not so much as you sup pose ; all together, it amounts to on- * iy a ;rip:, sir." We could hut smile as our iriendt i open tolly these words; but after-' w.uaO we fell to thinking how much: good tie is doing v\ ilb “only a trifle.”' He supplies three 01 fun families with the bread they eat from day to day, and though (he aeiual cost for •a \ e.u shows but a small sum in dol- I’S and cents, die benefit conferred is by no means a small one.

Necessity, that great rt-fug-' and excuse lor human frailly, bonks through all law; and he is not to be accounted in lault whose crone is not the effect of choice, but force. Title and ancestry render a good man more illustrious, but an ill one more contemptible. Vice is infa mous, though m a prince; and vir tue honorable, though in a peasant. False happiness renders men stern and proud, anJ that happiness is never communicated. True happi ness renders them kind and sensi ble, and that happiness is always shared. There is nothing like beginning lile with settled economical princi ples. Extravagance is a habit easi ly contracted, and goes on increas ing in volume as a snow-ball does when rolling down-hill. Discretion, the more it is discov ered, gives a greater authority to the person who possesses it ; when it is once detected, loses its force and makes a man incapable of bringing about even those events which he might have, done had he passed only for a plain man At the last term of the Court of Common Pleas of Noble county, Kansas, a divorce was granted to a. lady, who, in less than fifteen min utes afterwards, was remarried by the same Judge, who suspended business in the court, and irnmedi ately joined her in marriage to an other, before the divorce had been mitered upon the record.
