ONCE UPON A TIME, "TRUTH" AXD " FRAUD" LAID DOWN TO SLEEP, AND WIIILE TRUTH" j SLEPT, " FRAUD" STOLE AND DRESSED HIM- | SELF IN TRUTH'S" CLOTHES; THEREFORE, "TRUTH" HAS GONE NAKED EVER SINCE! SST WEBSTER, THE GREAT LEXICOGRAPHER, defines "TRUTH," as con- formity to "Reality or Fact;" "Exactness;"' "Honesty," "An Established Prin. ciple." The opposite of this is "FRAUD," signifying "Deception;" "Deceit;" "Trick;" "Breach of Trust." TRUTH and FRAUD travel side by side, and it i« ever the aim of FRAUD to present the semblance of TRUTH. The Tinsel man pu lator dresses the Baser Metal in such similitude to the Purer Material, that an Expert a only can detect the Counterfeit. Even the Carmine of SHAME simulates the blush of INNOCENCE, and so in everyday business this pernicious coloring is used at every point. The half of the Business Advertisements of to-day are nothing more than well- dressed Frauds, written for the purpose of Deception, Deceit, Trick, and a Breach of that Trust that was placed in these Advertising Houses by the people, and we hereby warn the people against all such Advertising, and most earnestly advise the public to sift the matter to the very core. If a house advertises BLACK SILK, at §1 25, worth $2 25— go to that house, and if you find they have not got the article, write "Deception" against that houße, and travel to the next ; and, if after inspection, you find you have been misled, shut right down on that house, and write "Deceit" on it. And on to the next; try them all thoroughly, sift them, weigh them in • the balance, and if they are found wanting, write down "Trick," and give up trading at those houses at once and for ever— they have committed a "Breach of Trust," and filled Mr. Webster's Bill o Fraud to the letter. 3STow, then, for a Test Case HALE BROS. OF THE "CRITERIOir" ADVERTISE A GENUINE BLACK FRENCH CASHMERE, MEASURING 46 INCHES WIDE, FOR 75 cents per yard. WORTH AT LEAST $1 15. We wiah^he public to see it, inspect it thoroughly, measure the width, and pro- nounce judgment. We are anxious that the crucible Bhall be applied to the CRI- TERION. Make the ordeal stringent as you please, and our resord will be all the j brighter. The CASHMERE is only one item in our varied and extensive stock. j Each Department 13 plethoric with perfect goods, and at the Lowest Trices. Our Firm . is aware that its prices arc an enigma to the Trj.de generally, although we have ex- plained it more than once. Vet, "Having eyes to see, they see not ; and ears to hear, they hear not, neither do they understand." The fact is, they are troubled with a moral obliquity of vision ; they won't see. The Combination want their oltt prices, an. l it may be said of these houses : " Ephraim is joined to his idols, let him alone." As for our house, we are determined to Eerve the people, advance with the people— the times demand it ; not without our "Mess of Pottage," for we will not Bell without remuneration, but our great forte i 3 to spread that profit equitably al. round. We iind the system works healthily. We have Five Houses on the Coast '> therefore it has been well tried, and works like a charm. Iv conclusion, let ns say one word of consolation to the Combination : We, HALK - ■ c * ' '. - ' BROS., do frankly look over all your little mean tricks. We forgive you for saying that " Our House was fit only for the Poorest of the Poor." The poor are trying it everyday, and they lind it pays them. We forgive you for the threatening letter, "for yon know not what you do. ' "INVINCIBLE IGNORANCE" IS A TERRIBLE THING TO CONTEND AGAINST BUT IT OPENS A DOOR FOR YOUR ESCAPE. But, in justice to ourselves, let us remind you that the firm of HALE BROS, will take no back-water ; that we will not " Down" under any of your threats, and that your I Combination may thank their particular Providence that they had merciful opponents to contend with. TO THE FUBUC: ; We are contemplating extensive alterations in our premises. Our Immense Con- signments from the East about ta arrive, and our fa3t increasing business, demand more space. Due notice will be given of the alteration. Heartily thaukingyou for your support, we remain, very truly yours, IKAXuXS BROS. 1 " Criterion," No, Sl2 X street, Sacramento.

This evening the Presidents being entertained by the vet erans of the Ohio regiments at Humboldt Hall.

State Mineralogist Henry 11. Hanks lias analyzed the water of Ticheuor's alleged gold bearing spring near Calistoga, and finds it to contain not the slightest trace of gold. Prof. Hacks denounces Tichenor's enterprise as a fraud. The Call to-morrow will publish an expose of the manner in which Tichenor pre tended to obtain gold fmm the water, which may be briefly described as "salting" the water with chloride of gold.

Dr. Bird, who lias been in attendance on Bishop Simpson, reports that th'_ reverend gentleman is out of danger and will be able to start upon his journey home in a few days. The total number of registrations up to last night was 16,626. Up to noon today there were only "200 registrations, which is unusually light, considering the number yet to register and the nearness of the election. The amount of money received at the window of the Mechanics' Fair for the five weeks was $31, 7ti3 .10, beiug just 75 cents more than the total amount for the six weeks of last year. During the month of August 902 pas?cn gers arrived at this port by sea and <>74 de parted.

In Department 11 of the Superior Court yesterday afternoon, the question of draw ing a jury was decided by Judge Freelon in favor of Sheriff Desmond, to whom ob jectioa had been made by the prosecution in the case of I. M. Kalloch, on the ground that he was prejudiced in favor of the prisoner. Any information of the family of the late Jacob Waldnagel, blacksmith, who died in Sacramento in IS7I. will be thankfully received by I. P. Waldnagel, steward of the Lancashire Witch. Mr. Waldnagel is particularly desirous of finding his relatives as a bequest of 8,000 francs awaits their claims. S. C. Hastings has filed a petition in the Probate Department before Judge Finn, alleging that he is the father of Ella Hast ings, who through an accident is mentally incompetent to manage her property. That the property is worth 550,000, and there fore affiant prays to be appointed guardian of said Ella Hastings, who is 21 years of age. A somewhat remarkable fact, and one worthy of mention, is that during the pres ent year more marriages have occurred among the working classes in this city than has been known for years before, and it might iv a manner point to a revival in a commercial view of business. Times are certainly beginning to look more prosper ous or men would not assume the respon sibility of maintaining a wife and family. A hummiug-bird flew into a Court-rocm in Georgia daring the session of the Comt one day recently, at 10J a. m., and con tiuued to fly within a few inches of the ceiling until 6 p. m., when it fell slowly and lighted on a mantelpiece, whore it was captured. It was on the wing seven ard a half hours without rest. imi.v kjro?;n-r*io\ «rv: «, HANCOCK AND TILDEN. First Authentic Account of Tteir Great Interview. [Burlington llawk.w "You see, Mr. Tilden," remarked thu General, confidentially, '" we are goins; to make a lively campaign of this. \\\> shall take the offensive from thi; start, vid we must whoop her up." "Oh yes !" said the old man, in an im pressive whisper, " that'a all right : it is hooped up now. And he (tailed at the Gt-i.cra! as old i who should encourage another to proceed, but in a different direction. The t General echoed the smile faintly, but hopefully, and hitched his chair a little nearer. "^ou see." lie went on, with a kindlingf enthusiasm, '• I Bm hot much of a politi. cian, ami have everything to learn in the management of there thiugs, but I know we muat get ahead of them at the start. You «cc?" "Oh yes, yes," the old man replied, in a whisper more intense than before. "Oh yes, that"* all right. We're got ahead! al ready. It's headed up, too, he, be, he ! Hooped up and headed up ; you're right ; yes, you're all right." And he smiled again, a smile that he seemed to think was full of comfort lor his listener. The General looked at hint earnestly and a little ihadow of anxiety crept over his answering smile. "You understand, Mr. Tilden," he Mid presently, "that 1 need your advice and friendly counsel.' The old man bowed again. The < ieueral looked up more hopefully, and went on : " You sec what I am trying to get at- "Yes, yes," chuckled the old ni.in, eagerly; "I know; that's what they're all trying to get at : yes, yes ; tin y'rt> all trying to get at it. Oh yes." Am! iv the pleasant mood which let mod to have come upon him lie made as thoogfa he would have prodded the General in the. ribs with hit boDJF forefinger, but suddenly drew back. The General looked worried, but returned to the charge with patient good nature. "I don't want 1" make any bungling work at the start,'' he said, "oeoMW "No, no; no, no;" interrupted the old man, earnestly ; " no bungling this time ; you're right there ; it's all right, :uv, t was bunged up tighter; a bung starter ;i» big as a maul wouldn't start it ; oh, yes, you're right there ; no bungling this time." And the General fairly Btarted, for as he listened he thought he heard the old man whisper under his breath, as a sort of ap pendix, "Not a darned bungle." Ho Mt his teeth hard and looked in the old mauV half-closed ryes. "Mr. Tildcn," he said, "1 will be frank and open with you — " "Open?" said the old man, with an iu terrogation point in his face, "Oh, no, no. Hooped up. Didn't you say hoop her uj% and didn't I tell you yi», it was hooped up? And headed, too? Oh, no, not open. No, not open. N-n-o-t-t open. Oh.no." he added, with grave and earnest delibera tion, And then he looked at the General a* though he didn't exactly understand him. The cold perßpiration s'ood out on the General's brow in beaded drop?. "Mr. Tilden," he said earnestly, "listen to me. Yon cannot, you must not, misap prehend me. Do not stop me ; hear ma thorough. You cannot delay or avert the inevitable : you cannot stave off—" " No," the old man said with startling promptness and discouraging energy. "No, that's so. You're right there again. Not a stave off. Tight as a drum. And he repeated with comfortable unction, "Tight as a drum ; tight as a drum. Not a hoop loose or a stave off." The General turned uneasily in his chair and barely repressed a groan. As it was, he sighed, aud with an appealing ylar.ee into the old man's eym, he said : "This increases my fears and donblea my responsibilities. Tlv's adds—" "What adze?" asked the old ir.an quickly, and with a Buspicioai glance at the General's side-pocket, a* though ho feared a concealed weapon or a mechanical instrument. "What adze?" he repeated, in apparent alarm. The General rose in despair, abstractedly rubbing his hat the wrong way. As he stood near the door, he said : "I will leave you now. I will call again, and may I not trust that on another occasion you v« ill listen to mo more intelli gently and enter more zealously into my plans ? May I not hop*', on — " "No !" the old man said, with mild em phasis, " you may open nothing here ; not even a watermelon ; not a postal card. I have no time. I have a client who is — " He was suddenly silent, for he was alone. Down the darkening street he saw the magnificent outlines of a t>nperb figure, clad in the splendid uniform of the senior Major General of the United States Army. The superb figure was thrashing the air with its splendid arms, and now and then wildly kicking a troo box with its magnifi cent legs. The fl ckrring street lamps shone on a handsome face convulsf.l with a variety of emotions, among which tlat footed wrath was prominent. The old man could not hear distinctly the remarks th.it fell from the lhit-ly chiseled lips, but cow and then the breeze of the summer night wafted back faint echoes of resfrva tion profanity and foot-hill objurgations an 5 West Point expletives. The old man checked a sigh and turned it into a smile. He leaned forward to gizt; at the disap pearing tableau, and listened for further remarks. But solitude reigned in the rtreeta, aud only silence moohul his listening eara with; voiceless quiet. The Superb was gone. MESSAGES BY HELIOGRAPH. The usefulness of the heliograph was re cently satisfactorily tested in the transmis sion of a dispatch from (ieneral Stewart, in Afghanistan, announcing Ihe result of an attack on the British troops, which was sent from Camp Ghuzoi, April 2'2d, and was received at the India office, London, on the following day. The news could hardly have been brought more speedily by electric telegraph. The heliograph, signal ing right over the heads of the enemy. :f necessary, to stations which may be few and far between, dots not require any route to be kept open, and i:asno: be in terrupted. A ten-inch mirror, that being the size of the ordiuary field-heliograph, is cipahle of reflecting the sun's rays ia the form of a bright spot to i\ distance of fifty miles, where the signal can l>e seen with out the aid of a glass. The adjustment of the instrument is very simple, If an army corps, having left its base where a helio graph station is established, desires to com municate »ith the other di vision from ;\ distance of several miles, a hill is chosen and a sapper goes upon it with his helio graph-stand containing a mirror swung so as to move horizontally and vertica'ly. A little of the quicksilver having been removed from behind the center of the mirror, a clear spot is mace through which the sapper can look from behind his instrument toward the station he desires to signal. Having sighted the station by adjusting the mir ror, he next proceeds to set up in front o( the heliograph a rod to which 13 a movable stud, manipulated like the foresight of a rifle. The sapper, standing bthind his in strument, directs the adjustment of his stud until the clear spot in the mirror, the stud, and the distant Btation are in a line. The heliograph is then ready to work, and the sapper has only to take care that his mirror reflects the sunshine on the »tud just in front of him to be able to ila.^k signals so that they may be seen at a dis tance. — [Popular Science Monthly, for September.
