Card of the Editor.
To the friends of the Anaheim Gazette:
Referring to my difficulty with the Agent of the Land Co., I have to state to you, that in advocating the necessity of a resident Agent at Anaheim—and that such Agent should be suitable—I was actuated by the sole motive of benefitting this identical community. I have had no intention or desire to interfere, in any manner, with the internal arrangements of the Land Company; but as a member of this community, and a freeholder interested in its advancement, I have, through my columns, proposed only what seemed to me to be for the best interests of this people. I did not start this paper in the interest of any clique or faction, religious or political, and I claim the same privilege of conducting my own business, which I grant to every business man. The principle of personal responsibility I recognize, and, therefore, am not to be intimidated by threats, lampoons or memorials from pursuing the straight line of conduct, as I see it. G. W. BARTER.
Our Quarrel with Mr. Lynch.
To a few of our citizens, perhaps an explanation is necessary, as to how the editor of the Gazette came to quarrel with Mr. Lynch. Presuming such to be the case, we will give a brief state-

LA SERENADE.—On Monday last, the Gazette office was of a serenade from the Anna Band—accompanied by a few friends of the editor. The pieces were executed with to the performers: "Siur Louiza Waltz;" "Shoo-b Polka;" "Invitation Waltz Schausen March;" "Bruce Lilly Waltz" and "La Summer." The band
Our Quarrel with Mr. Lynch.
To a few of our citizens, perhaps an explanation is necessary, as to how the editor of the Gazette came to quarrel with Mr. Lynch. Presuming such to be the case, we will give a brief statement of the circumstances as we understand them:
We did not know that a quarrel existed, until we read a printed lampoon apparently dictated by malignant feelings, ridiculing us and our paper, implying that we did not hold ourselves responsible for statements; and finally accusing us of attempting to blackmail.
We first saw this lampoon about an hour before our paper went to press, one week ago yesterday evening, and believing the premises assumed in it to be totally false, we promptly inserted our card in the paper. This card, we confess, was a little rough on Mr. Lynch, and calculated to test him severely. Now, the evening we saw the offensive slip of paper, we were also informed that Mr. Lynch had 500 printed copies, that he had posted a number of them at Los Angeles; and that it was his intention, to post them all over Anaheim, under our very nose, after the Gazette had gone to press, that evening. He having posted them, and no notice taken of it in the paper, it would appear to certain of our friends at Los Angeles, who know us intimately, as a very querer thing. So we waxed wroth and put that "naughty card" in the Gazette. We had in remembrance an occasion when Mr. Lynch, with his giant size, overawed, and with his speech berated, Mr. Forbos, the agent of Don Abel Stearns, and we suspected that he was disposed to attempt to treat us in the same manner. As we reserve the right to criticize any monopoly, or the acts of any public man, we yearned to correct the false views of Mr. Lynch. Hence again a weighty motive for our "bad card."
Communication

Another Serenade.—On night the Anaheim Brass Band panied by a party of friends of Mr. Theodore that gentleman a midnight serenade at his residence Reiser received them all welcome; and the hour waxed the wine ceased to flow. Performed a number of their in which they have attainedtection.
New Arrivals.—By the er quite a number of new arrived for Anaheim and vicin Fresno county came Mr.
membrance an occasion when Mr. Lynch, with his giant size, overawed,
and with his speech berated, Mr. Forbes, the agent of Don Abel Stearns,
and we suspected that he was disposed to attempt to treat us in the same manner.
As we reserve the right to criticize any monopoly, or the acts of any public man, we yearned to correct the false views of Mr. Lynch. Hence again a weighty motive for our "bad card."
The same day the card appeared, Mr. Lynch made quite a spirited attack upon us in the street. We fought—the fight ended—the result is known.
We cannot understand what Mr. Lynch meant by his reference to black-mail. He had his advertisements in the Gazette, and for those we charged him our published prices. Mr. Lynch has altogether paid into the Gazette office $33. He had his business office, table and chairs, in the editorial room of the Gazette for three months, and his sign swinging outside for the same period. During that time, we were much annoyed by persons calling for him, to see about lands. He was mostly absent at his headquarters at Los Angeles. In our bill, we charged him $8 per month rent, at which he demurred. We then charged him $5 per month, but he refused to pay anything. We then intimated to him that his office was of no benefit to us, and he moved it elsewhere. As Mr. Lynch has never paid this item of rent, it may be that he considers our efforts to collect it, as an attempt at black-mail.
Corn is worth from $2,40 to $2,50 in San Francisco. Barley has advanced from to $1,95 to $2,00.
New Arrivals.—By the er quite a number of new arrived for Anaheim and vicinity Fresno county came Mr. and Mr. McDowell and fam Illinois a younger brother Guinn, Esq., and a relative who resides east of the Mr. French and three other party have already gone Westminster, on the Bolsas.

Card from S. J. Davis.
Candidate for the office of Mayor in city of Anaheim, I have freewill been asked what my policy in to the city government would be selected. It can be stated in one Economy." In the first place, we no more use for a city govern-than a wagon has for five wheels; we have it fully organized and in order, and in view of the rapid population and resour-ful in contemplation of a division county, with Anaheim as the seat—in which case a city政 would be of some benefit, I favor of maintaining the organi- for the present as cheaply as, and not oppress or burden any of the community by taxation licensos. I understand that my opponent advocates the same.
The course followed by the City Council, of which he is a speaker, speaks for itself. It is just months since the organization of about fifteen hundred dollars was collected, in the form of taxes licenses, and the city is at this point five hundred dollars in debt.
Respectfully, S. J. Davis.

Black Mustard Seed.
There is a great demand at San Francisco for black mustard seed Mr. E. W. Burr, who was here on Monday last, says he will contract to take 200 tons at six and seven cents per pound. He says the country here is admirably adapted to its culture, and, indeed, it is well known that in ordinary seasons the plain is covered with it, growing wild. On cultivated soils, it can be raised sufficiently early to produce a corn crop afterwards, during the same season.
Black mustard is much more valuable than the variety known as English mustard, as the latter brings but from three to five cents per pound. The black variety should be gathered before sunrise, in the morning, as after the sun has risen the pods are liable to pop open, like castor beans. It may be gathered with a heading-machine, and be thrashed with a flail on a good smooth floor. The common fanning-mill is used for cleaning it. This is no doubt an important and valuable industry, as the market has never yet been fully supplied.
Personal.
Mr. E. W. Burr, wife and daughter, of San Francisco, were in town this week. Mr. Burr, was the first Mayor of San Francisco under the Consolidation Act. He is now a member of the firm of H. C. Hudson & Co., as well as connected with one of the Savings Banks of San Francisco.
