BURNS JOHN. – This gentleman still lies very low from the effect of his injuries, but we learn that his physician entertains some hope that they will not prove fatal, as at first feared. SAN FRANCISCO ITEMS – Capt. Daniel B. MOSBY of the steamer Bragdon, a native of Kentucky and aged 40 years, died yesterday. Capt. LANDRUM is said to be recovering from the effects of the accident at the crossing of Powell and Francisco street. August HECHT, who was run over by Empire engine lately, died yesterday of his wounds received. – S.F. Eve. Bulletin, 24th DRUG STORE FOR SALE. – We would call attention to the fact that the Drug Store in this place is now offered for sale, a notice of which will be seen by reference to the advertising column of W.C.T. SMITH in this paper. To persons wishing to engage in the Drug Business no better opportunity could present itself, for a profitable investment. The Stock is well selected and of the best quality, and the store at present has an excellent run of custom. Mr. SMITH will dispose of the stock on very advantageous terms to any person wishing to purchase, on account of having a great deal of other business to attend to which prevents him giving it that attention which the business requires. CARPETS & PAPER HANGINGS. – We know of no better place for our readers to supply themselves with these articles than with our patron, F.G. EDWARDS, whose card will be found in another column. We dropped in on him the other day, and found him supplied with a large and well selected stock, and upon examination judged that the goods were “marked low.” FOR THE EAST. – The following U.S. Army officers took their departure on the steamer Orizaba, for the East, which sailed on the 21st. Brig. Gen. E.V. SUMNER, Col. C.S. MERCHANT, Capt. JUDD, Capt. BOOTES, Lieut. J. J. UPHAM, Lieut. SINCLAIR, Lieut. WARNER, Lieut. HARDIN, Lieut. DANDY, Lieut. KIP, Lieut. LIVINGSTON, Dr. J.J. MILHAU, Dr. J.C. HERNDON, Captain BOGGS, and GREEN of the Navy, together with three companies of the Third Artillery and four companies of the Sixth Infantry. SEVENTEEN-MILE HOUSE Editor GAZETTE – Having sold out and withdrawn from the management of the above named house, permit me through your columns to return my sincere thank to my many friends and the traveling public for the favors shown upon me, while the same was in my charge, and at the same time recommend renewed and increased patronage to my successor, R.J. DOWNS, Esq. He is an experienced landlord, and I feel confident that he is one who will give entire satisfaction to the public. WM A.
