The Board met yesterday, all the mem- bers present. Minutes read and approved. The City Engineer was directed to pr«- pare plans and specifications for the con- struction of a sewer in the alley between N and O streets, from Twelfth to Thirteenth, and to make an estimate of the cost. Also, that the Street Commissioner advertise for proposals for doing the work. Bids for constructing a sewer in the alley between X and L, Fifth and Siith streets, were opened, and that of W. H. Hobby found to be the lowest. He was awarded the contract. The City Engineer was di- rected to furnish the Board a diagram of the property affected or benefited by the consttuction of the sewer, and the diagram was approved. Proposals for supplying fuel for the Water Works for one year were opened, and the contract awarded to the Sacra- mento and lone Coal Company, C. Holland, Superintendent, at $10,500. Bond tixed at $5,000. A petition of property owners in the block between N and 0, Fifth and Sixth streets, for the removal of a sewrr crossing Sixth street, at the junction of O street, be- cause of its causing drainage water to stand in large quantity in front of their prem- ises, which water found its way into the yards and cellars, was referred to the Street Commissioner. George E. Bates presented the Board a demand that a sufficient tax be levied to pay his claim in the sum of $10,100 99 for interest on city bond coupons. Placed on 8. H. Gerrisb, on behalf of the Trustees of the City Library, requested the Board to levy a tax of five cents for Library pur- poses. The following communication from the Board of Police Commissioners was read and placed on file: S.\< kamknto, February 27,1857. To the Him. the Hoard of City Truxtas of the c,Ui uf Sacramento— OnUß) : We desire to place before your honorable body a few facts uud reasons why the jwliee force of this city should be Increased, and hojie you will give them <-areful consideration ami act upon the matter as early as practicable, believing it to be I rrncaHnn that concerns the welllare ot the city ami interests of all good, tax-paying citizens of Sucramento. The present police force consists of eleven men and a Chief of Police, placed and distrib- uted as follows : Two jailers—one. day and one night—irbo relieve each other after a twelve- hour wati-h; a bailiff to the Courr. who rej>orid on duty With four patrolmen at T o'clock a. m., to report offduty at 9 o'clock P. m.—a fourteen- h.mr watch; aud* four night patrolmen, who re- port for duty at 8 o'clock P. M., to remain on watch for ten" hours, or until 6 o'clock the fol- lowingday. The city comprises, from A to V and from First to Ihiny-tirst streets, a territory of about six aqoaie miles, and a imputation of :«,<«ju in- habitants, :i»>l is divided into four beats or sec- tions by Uses running through Sixth street north and smith, and the alley between J and X east and west, on each of which an officer is detailed. Tbisgivea to each officer on patrol an average of seven thousand five hundred per- sons, aud a territory of about one and a half square miles to serve .lining the day or night, uud taking the atreeti aud alleys,ou an average of about forty-six miles to patrol. There are parts Of this territory which do not need the attention of the police at all times. Taking into consideration the size and population, and comparing this with other cities, there is a less number of police officers by from one-tilth to one-third accordingly than that in any other City in the State. At times when there are pub- lic demonstrations, it necessitates the entire po- lice force to do duty, and consequently compels the day or night officers to remain a double watch* Also, in such eases as have lately oc- curred, when residences in the outskirts of the city were entered nightly by burglars; the en- tire police force was lound inadequate, though put upon the night, leaving only the bailiff to do duty for the whole city during the day; ami again, "when the Superior Court is in session the city is deprived ot such officers ns have cases there, by their attendance ai witnesses, leaving at tinies'but one officer to do patrol duty. it is true, there have been but few crimes of aserkms character committed in Sacramento lately, and what have been perpetrated have been met and successfully dealt with by the present police force, but no one eau say how long it may continue thus, or how great the need may Ik" fora greater police protection, and we earnestly petition your hoirnrable. body to increase the" police force to at least fifteen offi- cers, that they may meet any emergency that mar arise in our city. There can be no question but that the ends ot justice and the argent necessities of a city of this size aud territory, absolutely demand the increase asked for, and that it would be a mat- ter of economy, viewing the question from the standpoint of the increased protection which would thus be thrown about the lives and prop- erty of our citizens, for your honorable body to act"favorably upon the prayers of this petition at the earliest practicable moment. Henky L. BOOKLET, Police Judge, 11. ft Pili.man, chief of Police, Board of Police Commission. The weekly report of the Chief Engineer of the water works and the monthly re- ports of other officials were read and tiled. An ordinance amending Section 4 of Ordinance No. l*i, was introduced byJVlr. Jones, read and laid over under the rules. It provides that thepriceof half-inch water taps shall be $2, and live-eighths inch taps £3. It was resolved that it is the intention of the Board to have F street improved, from Twelfth street to Eighteenth, by grading, the constiuction of sidewalks, etc.; also, to have Twenty-second street, from H to XI, improved in "a similar manner. Death of an Old Sacramentan. News was received here last night of the death of Wm. F. Lyon, at Adrian, Michi- gan, at the age of 76. Mr. Lyon was the father of William M. and George F. Lyon of this city. Mr. Lyon came to California in ISSO, coining to Sacramento direct, where he lived a number of years. He went to San Francisco and engaged in business there, and later at Petalunm. He returned to Sacramento in ISOO, and began business as a produce and commission merchant, in partnership with his son, Wm. M. Lyon, the linn title being Lyon & Son. In I*7l he left the firm and returned to the East, where he resided until the time of his death. He was well and favorably known in this city as a bust- ness man, but even n::ira so as an advocate of liberal thought. In connection with such men as the late J. E. P. Weeks, and with Josiah Johnson. Ferdinand Woodward and others, he aided in founding and maintainine for a long time a progressive lyceuui of free debate, which was for some years a prominent Liberal Thought Society. While tiring in Sacran.ento he wrote a work entitled \u25a0\u25a0 The Hollow Globe," which on his return to the East he published. He wrote and published also, "The Gospel of Nature,'" and other works, and was correspondent for liberal papers and lectured as a free thinker here and throughout the East. He was a studious man and the chief work of his life concerned free thought snb- jects. He was raised as a Quaker, was ordained to preach in the Methodist Church, but went over to the school of his later Hie from conviction, aud was ever afterwards its earnest advocate. He will be remembered by all old residents most kindly. Burglarious Visit. Some time Sunday night or early yester- day morning, the clothing store of G. Politz, at Sixth and X streets, was entered by a burglar or burglars, who climbed over the alley fence and got into the court-yard in the rear of the store, then putting empty boxes in a pile, they were able 10 reach the roof of a shed, from which they proceeded to the roof of the store. A pane of glass was then removed from the skylight, and, I by the aid of a piece of robber hose, one of the burglars slid down Into the store and provided for egress by opening the back door. The rascals were evidently fright- ened away before they were ready to leave, and consequently all the goods missing are a few silk handkerchiefs ; but several hun- dred dollars' worth of the best goods in the store were placed near the back door, in sacks, to be carried away, after the estab- lishment had been thoroughly looked over. The drawers in the counting-room were broken open in a search for valuables. Yesterday morning Mr. Jacobs, the head clerk, reached the store at 5 o'clock, but, after opening the front door, concluded to get his breakfast before making a general opening, and he accordingly went away and did not return for about an hour. It may be that the thieves were in the store whe:i he first opened the door, and ran away before he came bark; but it seems hardly probable that they would make such a late'visit. and think of carrying bundles of clothing, even in sacks, through the stretta at that hour.

City Directory.—W« are ready to com- mence printing our new City Directory, and will be glad to have notice of any changes of residence or business since our canvass was made. Any names or changes sent to us will have careful attention. H. S. Crocker &Co., 208-210 J street. * Hem f:m her. the terni3offered on the Citrus Colony were never before equaled.

The City Trustees will probably meet and levy the tax for l"vS7 to-day. 11. V. J. Swain has been appointed a No- tary Public, to reside at Stockton. San Francisco has settled with the State and paid into the treasury $1,062,005 SS. There will be an eclipse of the moon to- morrow morning, commencing at 1:14 and terminating at .i::J0 a. m. A new postorrice has been established at Sheldon, Sacramento county, and Edward Ilealy ha» been appinted Postmaster of it. The State School Superintendent has ap- portioned $I,sis,(H I :U to the public schools of the State, which gives each census child $5 18. Clerk of the Supreme Court, Spencer, collected $,SIJO, fees for the month of Jan- uary, which has been paid into the State Treasury. The Sacramento river receded yesterday to T3 feet 5 inches, but will probably have an upward tendency to-day, under the in- fluence of the rain. A box car was yesterday forwarded to Montague, the new terminus of the Cali- fornia and Oregon Railroad, to be used as a " station car" temporarily. Deputy Sheriff Riley brought np from San Francisco last evening, en route to Folsom, Charles Waldier, who is to serve ten years for grand larceny. The room of Major Pico, at the Interna- tional Hotel, was entered by a thief yester- day morning during his "temporary ab- sence, and robbed ot his watch. Sheriff Boggs, of Lake county, passed through yesterday, en route for home from Oroville with a man named James Davis, who some time since shot and killed a stage driver in Lake county. Emmet Wells' New Ycrk Hop Circular of January 31st reports a firmer feeling in the market. There has been some inquiry from London for Pacifies, but as the prices bid have not met the views of holders, no transactions for export are reported. It is very good proof, however, that England is running short of choice hops, and must at an early day be compelled to import. Last night John Corcoran and J. Tro- menschlager had a dispute, during which the latter called his opponent names that did not belong to him. Corcoran went out, procured a brick and hit Tromenschlager on the head with it, cutting a bad gash. Deputy Constable Smart arrested Corcoran, and officer Ferral saw that the injured man's hurt was attended to by a physician. Senator Cox, who returned yesterday af- ternoon from his ranch in Kern county, reports that very little rain lias fallen in that county and Fresno so far, and the peo- ple feel much anxiety in consequence. He noticed while coming up that the " west side" of the San Joaquin was suffering, and between Modesto and l.athrop the ground was very dry and giving little evi- dence of fresh vegetation. About 1 o'clock Sunday morning a bur- glar attempted to break into the cigar store of H. Heyman, at 002 J street. He was heard by the family, who reside in theback part of the store. The next morning the proprietor could not unlock his door. When the lock was taken off, it was dis- covered that the thief had inserted a skele- ton key, which he had broken off, leaving a portion of it in the lock. At San Francisco, Sunday afternoon, the Louisvilles played a game of baseball un- der the new rules with the picked nine of California players by whom they were beaten a few weeks ago, and again suffered defeat, the Californians winning by a score of 8 to 0. The new rules were almost unanimously voted a failure, and it is scarcely probable that the California League will adopt them. The Louisviiles play at Central Park next Saturday, and here next Sunday, on their way East" Bishop Monogue yesterday commenced an amiable suit in the Superior Court against the St. Rose Church congregation, to quit title to the church property at Seventh and X streets, in order that he may be able to give the Government a clear title to the property. The congregation is now worshiping in the temporary church building on Twelfth street, hut nothing has yet been done looking to the removal of the old buildings, and they will not be torn down until the sale of the land to the Gov- ernment is perfected, which may not be for some little time. In Department Oneof the Superior Court yesterday Ah Jim was tried on a charge of burglary, in entering Isaac Hall's barn, near Florin, and stealing some harness. He was tried a short time ago for the same oiVense, but the jury failed to agree. Yes- terday's jury at first brought in a verdict of guilty, with a recommendation to the mercy of the Court; but Judge Van Fleet informed them that they had nothing to do with mercy—they were to decide whether the prisoner was guilty or not guilty—anil sent them back to find another verdict. They shortly afier returned with one of guilty. Yesterday morning Mrs. Mary L. Kel- logg, wife of Harry \V. Kellogg, died at her residence, I street, between Tenth and Eleventh, of blood poisoning, after a brief illness. Last Tuesday a pimple appeared on her chin, which on being squeezed be- came very much inilamed. and in a day or two her face was very badly swollen. A physician who was called in discovered that it was a case of blood poisoning. Everything possible was done for her, but her entire system became affected, and death ensued as mentioned above. De- ceased was abnut 23 years of age, and leaves many warm friends. The Charges Come the Naught. In the Police Court yesterday T. I!. Mor- tee, clerk to the Sergeant-at-Ar:ns of the Senate, was tried for battery upon John S. Wilkins colored), whom he shuck with a I e»r.c in the ball outside of the Senate Chamber at the Capitol last Friday aiier- noon, shortly afterdefendant aiid Serseant- at-Arma Wllcox had ejected him (Wilkins) from the lobby of the Senate Chamber for smoking. The evidence showed that Wil- kins had made remarks to the effect that he was 'laying for" Mortee. When the latter, having been infjruied of threats against him, went ont and inquked " '"Are you wailing for in:- " WiUdsa made a motion as if to draw a weapon, when Mortee struck him with his cane, breaking it into two or three pieces. Judge Buckley decided that Mortee was not guilty of battery, having acted in self-defense, and ordered his dis- charge. Sergeant-at-Arms Wilfcox, who had caused Wilkins' arrest for threats against life, moved the dismissal of the case, as a necessary witness had left town, and he was not afraid Wilkins would carry out the threats. The case was accordingly dismissed. Wilkins then intimated that he did not see any possibility of his case of battery against Wilcox being made to stick. and his request to have it dismissed was granted, thus disposing of the entire busi- ness. New Time Card. A new railroad time card goes into effect to-day, which is especially interesting to people traveling to the lower portion of the State. The through express train for Los Angeles, El Paso, New Orleans, etc.. which has left San Francisco heretofore at 3:30 p. m., will leave at l'::iO a. m., connecting at Lathrop with the train which leaves this city at 11:30 a. m. The train which has left Sacramento for the south at 5:10 p. >r. will hereafter leave at 5 r. m., and connect at Lathrop with a train which will run through to 1.03 Angeles, stopping there. The 11:30 a. m. train from Sacramento has heretofore connected at Lathrop with a train which only went as far as Tulare. but under the new arrangement there will be two trains daily (neither of them "Sundays escepted") through to Los Angeles. The train which has been arriving here over the Western route at 2.25 p. M. will reach the city at 2:30. bringing the New Orleans connection of passengers and mail, while the train arriving here at 0 a. m. will bring passengers and mail from Los Angeles and way stations only. This new time card pro- vides for the running ot trains through to Montague, and. if the elements do not in- terfere, the road will be open to that point, the Yreka junction, to-day. Installation and Banquet.—The Ei- empt Firemen's Association met at Fire- men's Hall last evening and installed Ha officers-elect, and then marched to Peter- son's Restaurant, where abont sixty of them sat down to the annual banquet, which Mr. Peterson had served in his usual thorough and admirable manner. Presi- i dent J. P. Melchoir presided, and Ge.rjre W. Chesley acted as master of ceremonies, and under his experienced management toast were given and responded to elo- quently and wittily, and the hours passed merrily.

Knight* of Honor Reunion* The joint social entertainment of Cali- fornia and Unity Lodges Knights of Honor, at Granger's Hall, last evening, was largely attended notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, every seat being occupied aiid numbers ot ladies remained standing throughout the rendering of the pro- gramme of the evening. Grand Dictator Steams of San Francisco, Grand Reporter Curry, and Past Grand Dictator Barnes were* unusually happy in their remarks. Mr. Barnes fairly convulsed his audience by his witticisms, and frequently caused the eye to moisten by his pathetic references. The following programme was iinely ren- dered : Remarks by the Chairman, H. H. Lin- nel; piano opening voluntary. Miss Fanny Atwood; recitation. Miss Katie Aiken, "Why He Would Not Die;" vocal solo, Miss K. Kidder ; address, Grand Dictator Steams; vocal duet, Messrs.

At the close of the exercises dancing was indulged in, and subsequently a fine ban- quet, spread in the upper hall, was en- joyed. Altogether it was the most success- ful social the Knights of Honor have given in the city. The entertainment was ar- ranged by the ladies, who deserve much credit for their successful exertion, and the thanks of the Knights were heartily be- stowed upon them. Y. M. C. A. Concert. Notwithstanding the inclement weather, a large and appreciative audience attended the concert at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association last evening. The following programme was rendered: Orerture, "Columbia,' by orchestra; quartet, "' Corae where the Lilies Bloom," Mrs. C. H. Dunn. Miss Nora Bessey, M. K. Barrett, C. M.

Coates, and piano, John 0. Walling. The several pans of the pro- gramme were well rendered, and the ap- plause and encores were liberal and sincere. The Weather. Though there was little if any rain pre- cipitated in this city for the twelve hours ending at noon yesterday, there was more or less rain or snow at other points in the upper portion of the State, and quite a heavy fallalong the line of the California and Oregon Railroad. On " the hill" yes- terday afternoon snow was falling between Gold Run and Truckee, accompanied by a high wind and falling barometer, with every indication of a very rough night. There was rain at almost all other locali- ties, commencing at Sacramento about noon, Sergeant IJarwick reports that the rainfall in Sacramento at 7 o'clock last night was .20 of an inch, making j.'jtl inches for February, 4.78 inches for this year, an<l 788 inches for the season, as against 24.07 inches to an equal date last year.

Fargo & Co.'s office, and, as there was a slight rain /ailing, he concluded to run. The pavement was slippery and he made a mis- step, and during his effort to save himself from fulling his pistol fell from his pocket to the ground and was discharged.

It was in order to meet this feeling that we sometime ago introduced a full line of Men's Shoes at $9. For the most part they are plain in style, but everything that science, skill and the large resources can do in shoemaking is manifest in them. The lines are the finest, the leathers the best, the workmanship the most finished—in fact they more than rival the best custom-made work.

SAUSFIfciiD'S CHRONIC IL.CER SAIiYE! #SB-The people of the Interior will remember that a few years ago, J. P. SABSFIELD, ot Sacramento, then a hard-workinp dairyman, became fortunately possessed of certain valuable remedial agents. With these he effected ia Sacramento and Central California remarkable cures, and drew the approving attention of many physicians. So wide-spread became the fame of his remedies, that business men were convinced of tneir entire reliability, and of the truth of the marvels they accomplished. The result has been the formation of a Company to aid him in putting these needs for suffering humanity broadly upon sale. The Company has its Depot at No. 115 EDDY STREET, SAX FRANCISCO, but the medicines can be had of all reputable druggists. The making of Certificates has related so largely to fraud, that the public has naturally grown suspicious of them. But those here referred to are by such prominent citizens, of such irreproachable character, and the cures are so well known, and the witnesses so easy to reach, that we make the references with- out any hesitation: MRS. H. C. GOODRIDGE. 38 Hnwtliorne street, nine years in bed with Chronic Ulcers and unutterable pain, and abandoned by physicians Permanently cured iv less than lour weeks.

The following communication from theBoard of Police Commissioners was readand placed on file:

S.\< kamknto, February 27,1857.To the Him. the Hoard of City Truxtas of the

c,Ui uf Sacramento— OnUß) : We desire toplace before your honorable body a few factsuud reasons whythe jwliee force of this cityshould be Increased, and hojie you will givethem <-areful consideration ami act upon thematter as early as practicable, believing it to beI rrncaHnn that concerns the welllare ot the cityami interests of all good, tax-paying citizens ofSucramento.

The present police force consists of elevenmen and a Chief ofPolice, placed and distrib-uted as follows : Two jailers—one. day and onenight—irbo relieve each other after a twelve-hour wati-h; a bailiffto the Courr. who rej>oridon duty With four patrolmen at T o'clock a. m.,to report offduty at 9 o'clock P. m.—a fourteen-h.mr watch; aud* four night patrolmen, who re-port for duty at 8 o'clock P. M., to remain onwatch for ten" hours, or until 6 o'clock the fol-lowingday.

The city comprises, from A to V and fromFirst to Ihiny-tirst streets, a territory of aboutsix aqoaie miles, and a imputation of :«,<«ju in-habitants, :i»>l is divided into four beats or sec-tions by Uses running through Sixth streetnorth and smith, and the alley between J andX east and west, on each of which an officer isdetailed. Tbisgivea to each officer on patrolan average of seven thousand five hundred per-sons, aud a territory of about one and a halfsquare miles to serve .lining the day or night,uud taking the atreeti aud alleys,ou an averageof about forty-six miles to patrol. There areparts Of this territory which do not need theattention of the police at all times. Takinginto consideration the size and population, andcomparing this with other cities, there is a lessnumber of police officers by from one-tilth toone-third accordingly than that in any otherCity in the State. At times when there are pub-lic demonstrations, itnecessitates the entire po-lice force to do duty, and consequently compelsthe day or night officers to remain a doublewatch* Also, in such eases as have lately oc-curred, when residences in the outskirts of thecity were entered nightly by burglars; the en-tire police force was lound inadequate, thoughput upon the night, leaving only the bailifftodo duty for the whole city during the day; amiagain, "when the Superior Court is in session thecity is deprived ot such officers ns have casesthere, by their attendance ai witnesses, leavingat tinies'but one officer to do patrol duty.

it is true, there have been but few crimes ofaserkms character committed in Sacramentolately, and what have been perpetrated havebeen met and successfully dealt with by thepresent police force, but no one eau say howlong it may continue thus, or how great theneed may Ik"fora greater police protection, andwe earnestly petition your hoirnrable. body to

increase the" police force to at least fifteen offi-cers, that they may meet any emergency thatmar arise in our city.

There can be no question but that the ends otjustice and the argent necessities of a city ofthis size aud territory, absolutely demand theincrease asked for, and that it would be a mat-ter of economy, viewingthe question from thestandpoint of the increased protection whichwould thus be thrown about the lives and prop-erty of our citizens, for your honorable body toact"favorably upon the prayers of this petitionat the earliest practicable moment.

Death of an Old Sacramentan.

News was received here last night of thedeath of Wm. F. Lyon, at Adrian, Michi-gan, at the age of 76. Mr. Lyon was thefather of William M. and George F. Lyonof this city. Mr. Lyon came to Californiain ISSO, coining to Sacramento direct, wherehe lived a number of years. He went toSan Francisco and engaged in businessthere, and later at Petalunm. He returnedto Sacramento in ISOO, and began businessas a produce and commission merchant, inpartnership with his son, Wm. M. Lyon,the linn title being Lyon & Son. In I*7lhe left the firm and returned to the East,where he resided until the time of hisdeath. He was well and favorablyknown in this city as a bust-ness man, but even n::ira so asan advocate of liberal thought. Inconnection with such men as the lateJ. E. P. Weeks, and with Josiah Johnson.Ferdinand Woodward and others, he aidedin founding and maintainine for a longtime a progressive lyceuui of free debate,which was for some years a prominentLiberal Thought Society. While tiring inSacran.ento he wrote a work entitled

\u25a0\u25a0 The Hollow Globe," which on his returnto the East he published. He wrote andpublished also, "The Gospel of Nature,'"and other works, and was correspondentforliberal papers and lectured as a freethinker here and throughout the East.He was a studious man and the chief workof his life concerned free thought snb-jects. He was raised as a Quaker, wasordained to preach in the MethodistChurch, but went over to theschool of hislater Hie from conviction, aud was everafterwards its earnest advocate. He willbe remembered by all old residents mostkindly.

Burglarious Visit.

Some time Sunday night or early yester-day morning, the clothing store of G.Politz, at Sixth and X streets, was enteredby a burglar or burglars, who climbed overthe alley fence and got into the court-yardin the rear ofthe store, then putting emptyboxes in a pile, they were able 10 reach theroof of a shed, from which they proceededto the roof of the store. A pane of glasswas then removed from the skylight, and, Iby the aid of a piece of robber hose, one ofthe burglars slid down Into the store andprovided for egress by opening the backdoor. The rascals were evidently fright-ened away before they were ready to leave,and consequently all the goods missing area few silk handkerchiefs ; but several hun-dred dollars' worth of the best goods in thestore were placed near the back door, insacks, to be carried away, after the estab-lishment had been thoroughly looked over.The drawers in the counting-room werebroken open in a search for valuables.Yesterday morning Mr. Jacobs, the headclerk, reached the store at 5 o'clock, but,after opening the front door, concluded toget his breakfast before making a generalopening, and he accordingly went awayand did not return for about an hour. Itmay be that the thieves were in the storewhe:i he first opened the door, and ranaway before he came bark; but it seemshardly probable that they would make sucha late'visit. and think of carrying bundlesof clothing, even in sacks, through thestretta at that hour.

It's a Satisfaction to Have the Best.Beyond the fact that it usually pays better,

there is a certain satisfaction in buying Shoesin knowing that one is getting as true and per-fect an article as the world produces.

It was in order to meet this feeling thatwe sometime ago introduced a full line of Men'sShoes at $9. For the most part they areplain in style, but everything that science, skilland the large resources can do in shoemakingis manifest in them. The lines are the finest,the leathers the best, the workmanship themost finished—in fact they more than rival thebest custom-made work.

We carry these fine shoes in all widthsand lengths and in half a dozen different stylesof toes and fastenings.

S\KSFIKIiIJ >S RKMEDY for Diphtheria and Pneumonia !SAUSFIfciiD'S CHRONIC IL.CER SAIiYE!

#SB-The people of the Interior will remember that a few years ago, J. P.SABSFIELD, ot Sacramento, then a hard-workinp dairyman, became fortunatelypossessed of certain valuable remedial agents. With these he effected iaSacramento and Central California remarkable cures, and drew the approvingattention ofmany physicians. So wide-spread became the fame ofhis remedies,that business men were convinced oftneir entire reliability, and of the truth ofthemarvels they accomplished. The result has been the formation ofa Company toaid him in putting these needs for suffering humanity broadly upon sale. TheCompany has its Depot at No. 115 EDDY STREET, SAX FRANCISCO, but themedicines can be had of all reputable druggists.

The making of Certificates has related so largely to fraud, that the publichas naturally grown suspicious of them. But those here referred to are by suchprominent citizens, of such irreproachable character, and the cures are so wellknown, and the witnesses so easy to reach, that we make the references with-out any hesitation:
