Quite a lengthy ordinance (No 19), embracing several sections upon different subjects, was passed by the Common Council on Saturday last. Our citizens will do well to look it over so as not to violate any of its provisions, for ignorantia legis neminem excusat ignorance of the law excuses no one. Article 1 sec 1 forbids the throwing into the street of certain rubbish, such as nails, glass &c, and imposes a penalty of $5 for first and $10 for subsequent violation. Sec 2 imposes penalty of not less than $5 nor more than $50 for resisting peace officer or refusing to assist him; Section 3 provides for arrest of vagrants with proper punishment. Article 2; Section 1, prescribes the following fire-limits for the City of Anaheim: Commencing in Sycamore street, 500 feet easterly of Los Angeles street, running thence southerly, parallel with Los Angeles street, to Santa Ana street; thence along Santa Ana street to a point 500 feet westerly of Lemon st; thence running parallel with Lemon street to Sycamore street; thence along Sycamore street to the place of beginning. Section 2 prohibits the collection of more than one ton of grass, hay, fodder, or straw in any one place, at any time, within the fire limits, except the same be stored in a building, when five tons will be allowed. Article 3, Section one prohibits the running at large of horses, mules, jacks, jennies, horned cattle, sheep, goats, or hogs within the pound limits. Section 2 defines the pound limits to be the limits of the City. Section 3 establishes the office of Public Pound Keeper, an incumbent to be appointed by the Mayor with approval of Council. Section 4 provides for building of corral for a pound by the Pound Keeper at his own expense. Section 5 One of the first things that the stranger as a remnant the country when he visits our southern California is the fact that when he her destination, and his tract is fully performed far as the ship is concerned no wharf, comes to no anchored in the ocean away from land, and may other charge to get at least an additional fare which large proportion to the his passage. As with this also with the freight. That is brought by stealth is subjected to a further bably $3 before it can And this same system owith the exception of the most serious drawback that Los Angeles contend with. We have thus us, from reliable author that the annual cost to lighterage at Wilmington alone, is not less than $7 or about $85,000 per year the business of the An Company, somewhere in hood of $2,000 per month the sum total of $9,000 about $108,000 per year every man, woman and county, which the people to pay from the want of facilities for a sea going charge at. The whole co- same be stored in a building, when five tons will be allowed. Article 3, Section one prohibits the running at large of horses, mules, jacks, jennies, horned cattle, sheep, goats, or hogs within the pound limits. Section 2 defines the pound limits to be the limits of the City. Section 3 establishes the office of Public Pound Keeper, an incumbent to be appointed by the Mayor with approval of Council.

In our zeal for writing up matters of real Anaheim interest, we omitted in the last issue to make any mention of horrible tragedy at Los Angeles. Did this because we had lots of Anaheim information to print, and the publishing already had in the Los Angeles journals, faller accounts of the matter, than we had room for in Gazette, we thought it of more value to our readers to fill our limited living space with original news from town neighborhood than to give an perfect account of what was already known to the world. Our motives were of the best, but we overlooked a which as a journalist we ought not have for a moment lost sight of viz., as an editor we were expected to try ourselves on one side or the other and raise the voice of our paper either condemnation or justification of act. This silence upon further reason we regret although it was with best of intentions, and we have been able to learn since, that our motives have been misconstrued and tortured every conceivable form of pusillancy that could possibly influence an order to commit any heinous offence against the public welfare. It has been suggested that we had not moral courteous condemn the murder of China, and it was also vaguely and darkened that we feared to lose our Los Angeles patronage if we condemned thing that happened at that city. We hope our past record does notify the former conclusion and as to latter, while we admit that our Los Angeles patronage is very liberal, we not regard our friends there as of class of people who hang innocent or rob safes, and therefore we have New Advertisements.

In this matter, as in every other case, we do not fear to take a position and abide by it. As a law abiding citizen, we oppose lynch law, as a Christ-we condemn murder, and as a journeyman we deprecate with horror and disgrace an atrocity like this, as a race and a stain upon our boasted utilization. The Cost of Lighterage. One of the first things that strikes stranger as a remarkable feature of country when he visits for the first time our southern California sea-ports, the fact that when his ship reaches destination, and his passenger concludes fully performed and ended, as is the ship is concerned, he reaches shark, comes to no town, but is stored in the ocean perhaps miles away from land, and must pay still an charge to get at last to the shore; additional fare which often bears a proportion to the original cost of passage. As with the passenger, so with the freight. The ton of goods brought by steamer for $5 or $6 projected to a further charge of pro- $3 before it can be got to land; this same system of lighterage is, the exception of the drouth, the serious drawback to her prosperity at Los Angeles county has to con- with. We have the figures before from reliable authority, showing the annual cost to this county of storage at Wilmington and vicinity is not less than $7,000 per month but $85,000 per year. Add to this business of the Anaheim Lighter many, somewhere in the neighborhood of $2,000 per month, and we have a total of $9,000 per month or $108,000 per year—$7 each for a man, woman and child in the city, which the people are obliged from the want of proper wharfies for a sea going vessel to discharge at. The whole county fee's this berber of foreign grape cuttings of the most approved varieties fresh cut from his and other vineyards in Napa County at the low price of $7 to $12 per thousand.

It is a mark of the unsuccessful man, that he invariably locks his stable door when the horse has been stolen. This sort of wisdom never thinks about bodily health until it is gone. But just as much as any disease has become seated, the power of the system to resist and throw it off is weakened; hence, time is all important. For dyspepsia, all diseases of the liver, stomach, skin and all that begin in vitiated blood, do not wait until the trouble is confirmed, but attack it by a timely use of Dr. WALKER'S CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERS.

[We invite attention to a new feature of the Gazette which we hope to maintain uninterrupted in the future. We have been most fortunate in securing the correspondence of a gentleman "beyond the Santa Ana" whose rare powers of observation, intelligence and family hands, eminently qualify him for writing an interesting letter. Our readers will find in this letter many items of news from that charming region] Mr. Editor, Sir. Agreeably to your request I shall undertake to correspond from this side of the Santa Ana. But I warn you in the outset that news items are scarce; nothing happens now days in this quiet neighborhood. RICHLAND. Richland is getting dry, the cool by-drants are while so ready to spout forth their liquit eloquence are becoming hot and parched about the lips; and respond to the most urgent solicitation by a more gurgle in the throat and the reservior gapes for breath as the last drops are being drawn from its capacious depth. The cause of this dearth is, that the water is turned off from the main zanga in order that the contractor Mr. Watson, may finish the lower porch thereof, which work we hope will be pushed on to completion without delay. We are not suffering for water wet, but still as the hot dry weather presses upon us we look with some anxiety for the approach—not exactly of night or Blucher but of rain or Watson. There has been some R R walk in certain quarters wherein Richland has been mentioned, but I think it wont do to print just yet. Capt. Jan- be pushed on to complete without delay.

There has been some R.R. walk in certain quarters wherein Richland has been mentioned, but I think it wont do to print just yet. Capt. Janen was over here yesterday looking for this missing schooner, but as no track of her could be found he concluded she must have gone off by water. Messrs Robinson are putting up a lime kiln on the Chapman tract near Richland. SANTA ANA. I visited our charming neighbor yesterday. She stands the drouth amazingly well, tucked away under the broad eycamores out of the hot sun. She dont dare much whether it rains or not. And the constant turning of cranks and hauling of ropes augers well for water any way if there is any between there and Constantinople. Spurgeon seems to like the fun. He and Mr. Semis have nothing to do but turn the frank, lift the beam, and the like, while the boys who sit on the lever do all the heavy work. TUSTIN CITY.
