ANAHEIM GAZETTE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1870. Urser.—On Thursday last, as the express was being brought off the steamer at Anaheim Landing, the skiff was upset in the breakers, and the man in the boat, together with the express sack of Walla, Fargo & Co., was precipitated into the surf. Fortunately, he clung to the sack with one hand and the boat with the other, until relief reached him from the steamer. Langenberger & Co. have a well selected and unusually large stock of toys and holiday presents for children. School Examination.—A very interesting school examination in the schools of Mr. Guian and Miss Swift, took place during Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of this week. We were unable to attend, but are informed that the pupils sustained themselves in a very creditable manner. She Keeps the House.—The case of Verdugo vs Madame Luna, for the possession of a house, came up for examination in the Justice Court on Thursday last, Gardner for the prosecution, and Barter for the defense. The examination of witnesses was careful and exhaustive, and the arguments on both sides able and well directed. The testimony showed that Verdugo built the house while living clandestinely with Luna, but had abandoned it to her possession, and that she had occupied it, unmolested, for some months. The jury in the case hung for three hours, but finally decided that Madame Luna owned the Wonderful Machine.—K. Laedke Esq., has at his establishment on Center street a most wonderful machine, the work of his own hands and fancy, so mechanically constructed that by a single drop of water falling upon a wheel a mill is turned, a fountain is kept playing, a fog bell is struck, revealing light turns in a light-house and every moment a house maid raises a window in a house; and says good morning. The structure contains a battle field, a mill, a castle, cattle-pasture, and a pleasure garden; and all appropriately filled with soldiers, cannon, citizens, animals and other figures. The whole institution will be illuminated on Christmas eve. New Warehouse.—The new warehouse just erected at Anaheim Landing, by D. K. Williams for the Lighter Company, is 70 by 24 feet in its dimensions. Daily Mail —Mr. Steinhart states that the Los Angeles and San Diego Stage proprietors informed him that their line would make daily trips after January 1st, and convey, as a matter of course, a daily mail. Ball of the Liederkanz.—By reference to our advertising columns, it will be seen that the Anaheim Liederkanz, will give a grand ball on New Year's Eve. The Society is strongly united and highly accomplished in singing, and we hope our citizens will compliment them by a large attendance at their ball. New Firm —The Pioneer Livery Stable is now owned and conducted by Messrs. N. H. Mitchel and J. M. Gibson, under the firm name of Mitchel & Gibson. Barter for the defense. The examination of witnesses was careful and exhaustive, and the arguments on both sides able and well directed. The testimony showed that Verdugo built the house while living clandestinely with Luna, but had abandoned it to her possession, and that she had occupied it, unmolested, for some months. The jury in the case hung for three hours, but finally decided that Madame Luna owned the house, and that the prosecution should pay the costs of the suit. Post Office Change. — Yesterday, the Post Office and all papers, documents and government property belonging thereto, was formally turned over to the newly appointed postmaster, W. M. Higgins, Esq. The new office at the drug store of Mr. Higgins, has been fitted up handsomely and conveniently. Large Yield — Mr. F. Schnider has this year produced 20,000 gallons of wine off of a 20 acre lot. Fifteen thousand gallons of this wine is already in a marketable condition. Notice — The Stockholders of the Anaheim Railway Company, will find a notice of the Board of Directors, in another column. Personal — A. W. Steinhart, Esq., formerly a merchant in this city, returned from the mines of lower California on Wednesday last. He reports the quartz ledges there as numerous and rich, but mostly unprofitable, on account of the scarcity of wood and water. Council. We were unable to obtain the minutes of the City Council of Monday last, but learn that no business of importance was transacted. Returned. Our esteemed fellow townman Ed. Polhemus, Esq., accompanied by Mr. Halverstadt, returned from his late trip to Piojo Rancho, on Thursday evening last. He reports the weather as being quite severe, in the upper country and that it is nothing unusual to see ice of sufficient strength and thickness to stand upon. Relieved. — The distressed family mentioned in our last issue, was speedily relieved by a large collection voluntarily by Mr. Halverstadt, returned from his late trip to Piojo Rancho, on Thursday evening last. He reports the weather as being quite severe, in the upper country and that it is nothing unusual to see ice of sufficient strength and thickness to stand upon. RELIEVED.—The distressed family mentioned in our last issue, was speedily relieved by a large collection voluntarily taken up by city Marshal Davies and turned over to them. The mother and twins are doing finely. The generosity of our citizens is characteristic and noble. No case of distress ever comes upon them without immediate and ample relief. Heaven will prosper such a people. San Francisco Produce Market Report. Flour—Sales of 500 bbls Golden Age, superfine, $5 25@5 50; Extra, $6 37½@6 50.

Emperor William of Prussia has made a speech at Versailles, in reply to a deputation, in which he says that Germany will not lay aside her arms until she is sure against future attacks. It is reported that the food in Paris will last two months. The French army is preparing for great sorties. The Prussians are reported as using explosive bullets. The Prefect of the Rhine announces that four chiefs of battalions of the National Guard of Lyons were shot by a band of wretches after the semblance of a trial. It is reported that the Prussians occupy Tours. Garibaldi refuses to accept the sword of honor until the end of the war. Late Versailles dispatches say there is no indication of a decisive engagement in France until after the holidays. A large number of Prussian officers are returning home on furlough. Confirmation of Instructions—It will be remembered that a late decision was made by the Los Angeles Land Company at San Francisco, whereby the Agent, Mr. Time Lynch, was authorized and instructed to remove all stock from the lands of the company. Shortly after the arrival of Mr. Lynch and the announcing of his object, a few interested herders petitioned to the Company for a change of those plans, and asked that, if nothing more, sheep might be allowed to remain. It will be seen by the following extracts which we are permitted to copy, from members of the Company, that the first instructions are maintained and confirmed: "We don't consider that it would be acting in good faith to those parties we sold lands to, whereas we bind them to their own limits. If we rent lands, we give a quast license to trespass on those very people we restrict. We have come to the conclusion not to rent any pasturage whatever." "We require all buyers to stipulate that their animals shall not roam off of their lands on to that of others. It would be bad faith in us to do that which they can't do. Our buyers can't have animals loose that might stray over on to us, and we should not have any that might stray onto them. The pasturage has been without authority." This will be good news for our farmers. Cloudy.—The sky looks cloudy as we go to press, and gives every indication of rain. Union Sabbath School every Sabbath at 10 A.M.
