SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1871 BASSE ASA — We call the availabilty of our people, and to those living abroad, to the excellent advantages of the village of Santa Ana, as a residence. It is one of the few live and rising towns of this county, that manifestly has an important future before it. The principal citizens there, who have the growth and prosperity of the county at heart, are determined to offer every reasonable inducement to settlers and business men. NEW STAGE LINE — Messrs. Mitchel & Gibson announce that they will run a stage line to Wilmington on steamer days. Hip—Hip! THE NEW CANAL — The new canal leading from the Santa Ana across the Southern extension of Anaheim, to Fairview, a distance of seven miles has been completed, and the water is beautifully and abundantly flowing through it. This enterprise carried out by a few farmers teaches us that the waste water that is passing down our valley, if properly husbanded, can be utilized for supplying the agricultural and mechanical needs of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of population. FOR LOWER CALIFORNIA — On Thursday last, Mr. Ed. Polhemus and Mr. Hunter started overland, on a trip to San Tomas, Lower California, intending to be absent for about three weeks. In about a week Wm. McLaughlin, of Capistrano, and B.G. Perkins of Santa Ana, with their families, are going on a short excursion. COMMUNICATION FROM LOWER CALIFORNIA. Summary: Sections of California Trends—Three Carriers by the New Governa—One of the Trends from the County. RIAL DE CASTILLO, Lower California, Jan. 29, 1870 EDITOR GAZETTE: — Having perceived from the Los Angeles papers that the people of that city have of late formed a Vigilance Committee, in order to have justice done to criminals, which the courts of justice fail to do. I will therefore inform the people, through your columns, how justice is done here, where we have not such competent courts of justice as you have up in your part of the country, especially in the new-born city; but Justice, although blind, found its way down here. Ten days ago, news reached us here that a band of horse-thieves were coming down, with horses stolen from San Diego and San Bernardino counties, wheretoon the sub-Governor of this Territory, Don Antonio Cossa, gave orders that the Chief of Police of this town should take a posse of men, and go out into the mountains to intercept the thieves. Accordingly, on the 18th inst., eight men, well armed, started from here to the mountains, and fell in with six thieves that had sixty horses. The thieves showed sight and had a considerable battle, but the men of justice had Spencer and Henry rifles, and the thieves only revolvers. Two of the thieves fell on the field of battle, and four surrendered, which were brought in here yesterday. The sub-Governor also arrived yesterday, and after a short form of trial, ordered the thieves to be shot. At 10 o'clock this morning, FOR LOWER CALIFORNIA — On Thursday last, Mr. Ed. Polhemus and Mr. Hunter started overland, on a trip to San Tomas, Lower California, intending to be absent for about three weeks. In about a week Wm. McLaughlin, of Capistrano, and B.G. Perkins of Santa Ana, with their families, are going on a short excursion to the same point. There appears to be considerable attraction towards the Peninsular; and whether the cause is gold or diamonds, we are yet unable to determine. To be Cut Up — The two eighty acre lots in Section 9, adjacent to the city extension on the west, and owned by Mr. Cowan, will probably be subdivided into ten acre lots, during the coming spring. Mr. Cowan was lately here, and indicated that as his intention, when he removed his family hither, in May next. EXPECTED.—Mr Ben. Dreyfus, of Langonberger & Co., is expected down on the Orizaba. next week. He will probably remain a month in Anaheim. ACCIDENT — On Tuesday last, Mr Amos Henry, who resides two miles west of Anaheim, went out to shoot wild goose; and loosing the ramrod to his gun, he used the steam of a dry weed n its stead. The weed, however, being somewhat too short, did not force the wad down on top of the shot, and when he fired, the gun burst and tore off the muscles and part of the bone of the thumb on his left hand, at the same time filling his wrist with shot. Dr Taylor was called in and dressed the wound. HOTEL PROJECT.—The enterprising citizens of Santa Ana are taking measures to have a first-class and commodious hotel, erected at that place. NUISANCE.—The old broken bottles, mustard cans, tin-shavings, pot hooks and hoop iron with which the streets of Anaheim are paved, is a positive nuisance as well as dangerous to the feet of horses. Why can we not have clean streets? Where is the chain gang? with six thieves that had sixty horses. The thieves showed fight and had a considerable battle, but the men of justice had Spencer and Henry rifles, and the thieves only revolvers. Two of the thieves fell on the field of battle, and four surrendered, which were brought in here yesterday. The sub-Governer also arrived yesterday, and after a short form of trial, ordered the thieves to be shot. At 10 o'clock this morning, twelve residents were armed and ordered to escort the thieves to the place of execution. The prisoners had their hands tied behind, and then put in a line with their backs towards the shooting parties. The command was given by the sub-Governor; then we heard the report of several rifles; a little smoke — and four fellows fell dead on their faces, all pierced through the head by the bullets. The execution took place in presence of about 200 people—and many a horse-thief I assure you. I herewith give you the names of some of those that were executed: Manuel Duarte, well known in Anaheim, Jesus Camacho, Antonio Marietos, and the balance are unknown here. ABAJONIO. TO THE LADIES.—Mrs. M.J Brown, who for a long time has sustained the dress making patronage at M. Kremer's, Los Angeles, has dissolved her connection with that institution, and has opened a first class establishment of her own at Los Angeles. She wishes the ladies to know that she will cut fit and make ladies' dresses at a much lower rate than any of the houses in that city. Anaheim ladies would do well to give her a call. CONTRACT AWARDED.—The contract for one hundred thousand feet of lumber to flood the fifteen mile Canal of Chapman & Co., has been awarded to Dicken Huntington & Co., of Anaheim Landing. DEEP PLOWING MOISTURE & C — We publish to-day, an able communication from W.R.Olden, Esq., on deep plowing and the mode of agriculture, adaptable to this soil and climate. Mr. Olden therein claims that it costs less to plow and pulverize the soil—thus mak- citizens of Santa Ana are taking measures to have a first-class and commodious hotel, erected at that place. Nuisance.—The old broken bottles, mustard cans, tin-shavings, pot hooks and hoop iron with which the streets of Anahaim are paved, is a positive nuisance as well as dangerous to the feet of horses. Why can we not have clean streets? Where is the chain gang? Found.—A gentleman returning from Wilmington, last Saturday, picked up a small pocket memorandum book, containing what appeared to be the accounts of a sheephorder. On the flyleaf is the name B.S. Weston Wilmington. The owner can obtain it by calling at Gazette office. Going.—From the passage of several draves of horses and cattle through Anahaim during the past week, we judge that the stock is being drove off, and that the stock ranch nuisance is abating. Santa Ana Stork.—Notice the new advertisement of Wm. H. Spurgeon, dealer in general merchandise at Santa Ana. Returned.—Mr. Holdt, Mr. Luedke and W. G. Hubbard and family, returned from San Francisco to Anahaim on Wednesday last, per steamer California. Glad to see their genial faces once more. Will Come Down.—Mr. W. A. Vale, who owns the new Anahaim Photographic Gallery, is to be in Anahaim on or about the 15th of this month, after which time he will commence business and remain here permanently. Surfing Vivid.—Some of the farmers south of Santa Ana are getting out for one hundred thousand feet of lumber to flood the fifteen mile Canal of Chapman & Co., has been awarded to Dicken Huntington & Co., of Anahaim Landing. Deep Plowing Moisture & o — We publish to-day, an able communication from W. R. Olden, Esq., on deep plowing and the mode of agriculture, adaptable to this soil and climate. Mr. Olden therein claims that it costs less to plow deep and pulverize the soil—thus making it capable of absorbing and retaining moisture—then to irrigate. If his suggestions are practically carried out, our lands become at once independent of rain, even in the dryest seasons. Planting Trees.—The time for planting semi-tropical fruit trees is generally considered to be the month of February, and the demand for that class is evidently in excess of the supply during this month. This year, however, Mr. T. E. Schmidt, of Poplar Row, one of the most practical and scientific horticulturists in this county, is prepared to fully supply those beginning to plant. Trees are from one to three years old. Santa Ana Ball.—A grand ball is to take place at Santa Ana on the 10th instant, in the new and commodious hall of Mesera. Akers & Co. Those of our citizens who choose to attend, can depend upon having a pleasant time. Dissolved.—The gentlemen heretofore conducting the City Bakery have dissolved partnership. Sale of Real Estate.—C.A. Gardner, Esq., has sold twenty acres of land west of the city to Mr. Clark, his father-in-law, at $50, per acre—exclusive of the buildings on the premises. Mr. A G Boche, all excellent, honest and industrious carpenter and joiner, announces that he is prepared to attend all orders from the surrounding country. Arrived—On January 31, at Anaheim Landing, the Schooner Emilie Franson, from Soquel, with 100,000 feet of lumber consigned to Dikes Huntington & Co, Holidays—St. Patrick’s, Valentine’s and Washington’s birth days are close at hand, as also the Chinese New Year.
