ANAHEIM GAZETTE. SATURDAY, JUNE 31871. RULES OF THIS OFFICE. All Communications, Marriages, Births, Deaths and Advertisements should be sent to the Office on or before Thursday morning, in order to insure their publication on the following Saturday morning. Fourth of July. Under the Constitution, the celebration of the 4th day of July, is a legitimate and patriotic rite. The Declaration of Independence on that day, led to the framing of the Constitution of this Republic, and all American citizens should know, and feel that to celebrate it is but to exemplify a proud and glorious sentiment of human rights, and popular government. Its celebration, annually reminds us of our free and civilized institutions, and renews our pride in this young and progressive country. It is therefore suggested that those among us imbued with, and upholding national ideas, make suitable arrangements for the next celebration of this holiday in Anaheim. The News will please understand that we own up, give up and cave in, on the county hose question. Texas Pacific.

At the last quotation, flour had declined at San Francisco, the best brands rating at $8,00a8,25 per bbl. Wheat has declined 30 cents per cent since May 18th, now rating $2,60a$2,80. Barley declined 25 or 30 cents between the 11th, and 18th, of May; and since then the market has been unusually dull, with a total suspension of demand. The last quotation is, coast, per cental $1,75; brewing, 1,95. Corn speculators have left the field, and mills refuse to purchase except for immediate use, for which $2.30a250 covers the range of prices paid. It is said that 1000 sacks on the wharf at San Francesco, would not obtain more than at rate of 2,25. Beans are falling off and growing less in request. During the past thirty days there has been a general decline in the San Francisco produce market, particularly in grains and breadstuffs. A Comparison. Perhaps no better criterion for judging of the growth of Anaheim and vicinity can be found than the following school statistics: In May, 1869, the whole number of scholars enrolled in the public school, was 21; the average daily attendance 20. The area embraced in the school district extended from the Los Coyotes Creek on the north, to the San Joaquin Rancho on the south, and from the Coast on the west to the Mountains on the east—a tract of country half as large as the State of Rhode Island. The school was kept in the old adobe building belonging to the Water Company. There was not a desk, chair, table or blackboard worthy of the name in the room. Defeated.—About a party of Los Angeles sent through Anaheim to San Deigo. Arrived the young gentlemen organized an extempore Bas challenged the New York Challenge was a game came off on "extempores" having a full nine of the local mination of the game temperatures 35; New San Diego was not a very interesting difference in not a match game, and temperatures were experienced of base ball. Teachers' Examination Board of Examinations School House No. 2. Angeles, on the 7th, 8th taut. Cotton.—Col. Strong the growing cotton on looking up, or in other Creek on the north, to the San Joaquin Rancho on the south, and from the Coast on the west to the Mountains on the east—a tract of country half as large as the State of Rhode Island. The school was kept in the old adobe building belonging to the Water Company. There was not a desk, chair, table or blackboard worthy of the name in the room. In May, 1871, the whole number enrolled was 103; average daily attendance 92. The school buildings consist of two large frame buildings, 24x40 each furnished with desks and school furniture of the latest style. Two teachers are now employed, and the school is divided into two departments—a primary and a grammar department. Within the last two years, two new districts have been struck off from the Anaheim district, and the district now embraces but little more than the town and its environs. If our town has made such progress in two years of drought, such as the country has never known before, what must be its growth in the good years coming. ANAHEIM CEMETERY.—The trustees of the Anaheim Cemetery Association, held a meeting on Monday evening last. The following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That H. E. Boldt and R. Luedke, constitute a standing Committee for general improvements. Resolved.—That from the first of July 1871, the large lots, known as "Family graves," shall be sold only at $20 each. Several settlers from the Monte have lately located on the Chapman tract near Santa Ana. A Blast at the Supervisors. [A gentleman of intelligence writes] is the following from Los Nietos.] Los Nietos, May 31st, 1871. EDITOR ANAHEIM GAZETTE— Dear Sir: Allow a taxpayer and one who detes his energy and skill to the devellment of the resources of this county to call the attention of his fellow citizens to the gross indifference or oppable mismanagement of our board of Supervisors, in laying out our public highways; and lavish and foolin expenditure of the road fund. For twenty-five years there has been a long's highway leading directly from Los Angeles through to the now, City Anaheim. This road is about 26½ miles in length, as good a natural road there is in the state. Instead of improving this road by the outlay of a new hundred dollars, they have attempted to lay off a new and direct and (bless the mark). They have pursued the right of way for the new road at ruinous prices; and it takes price as many turns at right angles as there are Supervisors and with a singular inclination to the residences of those gentlemen or the property they own directly or in expectancy. This may accidental but it is enough to startle the taxpayers at least. This movement, resulting from the judgment of our local legislature is the terror of the stage driver and like all serpents: It wiggles in and wiggles out, leaving the mind still in doubt. Whether the snake that made the track was going forward, or coming back. I shall have more to say hereafter on Personal. A. W. Potts, the popular Democratic Candidate for County Clerk, was in town during the week. Mrs. Ellis, Mrs. Foster, and Miss Asheroft, (the latter a daughter of Robert Asbcroft, of Capistrano.) have arrived from Oakland, and are visiting at the Boca de la Playa. The VINEYARDISTS of Anaheim contemplate organizing a private Wine Company, in order to make large and direct transactions. A late number of the New York Wine & Fruit Reporter, contains the following about California wines: After all that has been said, it must be clear to the unprejudiced that the future of the California wines will be a great one, and that the young giant will, before long, with few exceptions, not only compete with, but, at a later day, outvie the best foreign wines. For the special use of the invalid, the Calitornia wine is even now beginning to deplace the European of the same grade, as physicians place more confidence in the purity and genuiness of the native product than in the foreign wines, which are generally much more expensive, and rarely unadulterated. DIED. In Los Angeles, on Sunday, May 29th, 1871, at her late residence, on Fort street, Miss Lucy Bibb Armstrong, aged 15 years. The funeral took place on Wednesday last at 4 p.m., from the Congregational Church. We have not the pen capable of describ ing the virtues and amiable qualities of the deceased; nor would our feoble praise avail as consolation to the DEFEATED.—About ten days since, a city of Los Angeles excursionists passed through Anaheim and proceeded on San Deigo. Arriving there some of young gentlemen of the party organized an extempore Base Ball Club, and challenged the New San Diego nine. The challenge was accepted and the one came off on Saturday last, the extempores" having but six players to all nine of the local club. At the termination of the game the score stood Ex-apres 35; New San Diego 48. The seat was not a very bad one consider-able the difference in numbers. It was a match game, and but four extempores were experienced in the game please ball. TEACHERS' EXAMINATION.—The County Board of Examination will meet at Pool House No. 2. (Dr. Rose's) Los Angeles, on the 7th, 8th, and 9th, install. 29th, 1871, at her late residence, on Fort street, Miss Lucy Bibb Armstrong, aged 15 years. The funeral took place on Wednesday last at 4 P.M., from the Congregational Church. We have not the pen capable of describing the virtues and amiable qualities of the deceased; nor would our feeble praise avail as consolation to the afflicted family. We knew her as one youthful in appearance but a woman in intelligence. All who knew her, will sadly miss her, and deeply mourn her early loss. Special Notices.
