New Building — Mr Henry Kroeger is about to construct a genteel cottage residence on his vineyard, and has let the contract for its construction to Mr. D. W. C. Dimmock. The lumber has been ordered, and the work of building will be commenced in about two weeks. Petrified Whale — Mr W. H Raynes, a "prospector," while on his way San Francisco, April 14, 1871. Dear Bartler:— When a man leaves a community which, for a considerable time, has been his home; sever associations that have entwined themselves pleasantly about him, and grasps, perhaps, for the last time, the hands those whose hearts have ever warmed with kindiest wishes for his welfare decent respect for the memory of those he has left behind him, prompts one to give some account of the manner of taking off. The morning wind blew lightly from the sea as we left early on the 10th inst. We rolled along over dusty plains in Mitchel & Gibson's new coach, and, after visiting Anaheim Landing, reached Wilmington before 11 o'clock A.M. The William Talbot lay in the stream and having time to spare, we too: lunch at the Wilmington Exchange before going on board. I mention this lunch because it was the most remarkable lunch I ever ate—course being seasoned with flies. The preliminary glass of wine was present with one of the insects gracefully floating on top, and the landlord, unpretense of skimming him off, caretured him to pieces and stirred him. The soup came to us with flies strangling in the greasy surface, the colds was brought with duplicate editions of the same animal, swimming from shore to shore of the broken cups, and even the warm meats were most carefully garnished with detunet carcasses these ubiquitous representatives of entomological kingdom (please look at the dictionary and see if e comes treats of flies). We were glad to away from this, and went to the ship. NEW BUILDING — Mr Henry Kroeger is about to construct a genteel cottage residence on his vineyard, and has let the contract for its construction to Mr. D. W. C. Dimmock. The lumber has been ordered, and the work of building will be commenced in about two weeks. PERIFIED WHALE — Mr W. H Raynes, a "prospector," while on his way to this city, discovered the fragmentary remains of a petrified whale, near Aliso Springs, Serrano's Ranch. Raynes informed us that the resting place of the monarch of the deep is about ten miles inland. He also reported that there are a large quantity of petrified bones; that once belonged to other large sea monsters. OFFICE CHANGE. — Mr. Alonzo Coons, the obliging and gentlemanly telegraph operator, has been ordered to take charge of the repeating office at Petriopolis, above Los Angeles, and left for that point on Tuesday last. The Anaheim office is turned over to Mr. H. D. Polhemus, who will hereafter have charge of the telegraphing business at this point. RELEASED — The property of Hugo and August Schenh, lately seized by the Revenue department, has been unconditionally released by Capt. Jones of that department. Investigation showed that no fraud or delinquency had been committed whatever. ARTESIAN WELL — On Wednesday last, Messrs. Porter & McFadden struck artesian water on their ranch, one mile and a half south of Santa Ana, at a depth of 40 feet. The bore of the well is three inches in diameter. The pure spring water spouts up eleven feet above the surface, and flows regularly. RAIN — During last Sunday night, a heavy rain set in, and pooled down with greater volume that at any other time this season. The rain gauge marked 1 of an inch on Monday morning and the ground was soaked to a depth of eight inches. During Monday, it rained at intervals, frequently accompanied by the soup came to us with flies strangling in the greasy surface, the colony was brought with duplicate editions of the same animal, swimming from shore to shore of the broken cups, and of the warm meats were most carefully garnished with defunct carcasses these ubiquitous representatives of entomological kingdom (please look the dictionary and see if it contains treats of flies). We were going away from this, and went to the ship 2 o'clock. At 7 p.m., we steamed awa and after dark a school of porpoises companyed the steamer, giving us beautiful exhibition of aquatic phorescent light, as they raised water into foam in their play. A o'clock next morning, I was awakened by the steam whistle, and, going deck found that we had reached San Barbara. Here we lay 18 hours our freight—live stock—to come board, and availing myself of the portunity, went on shore and did town most thorougghly, and at 4 p.m. next day, arrived at San Francisco having had a very stormy voyage of the last 24 hours, and suffered severely from sea sickness. We reach San Francisco a few hours too late connect with the steamer for Portla for which failure we are not at all so as we are tired of sea traveling for present, and shall now finish the journey by land. We leave to more morning by Central Pacific Railroad Marysville, and expect to reach P land in six days.

From family to family from city to city, from state to state, the fame of Dr. Walker’s Vegetable Vinegar Bitter is a special for all derangements of the stomach, hospitals and liver, is continually extending.
