SOUTHERN CALIFORNIAN. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1871 Market Report. Littlefield Webb & Co. favor us with the following report: San Francisco Duo. 7th; Fleur 500 to 7 50 per bbl, Rye 2 25 per owt, Barley 1 80 to 2 10, Corn 205 to 2,25, Bayou beans 3 25 to 4 25, Castor beans 4 00 to 4 50, Mustard seed yellow 0 00 to 4 00, brown 4 00 to 5 50 dark brown, 3 00 to 4 75; Potatoes, best, 90 to 1 75; Carolinas 1 75 to 2 50: Batter; choicest, 50 to 60; Eggs, fresh. 50 to 524 Dry hides 18 to 184; Wool, burry, and coarse, 12 to 20; slightly burry 20-22, good shipping 22 to 26; extra choice 27 to 62 Wine (white and red, casks returnable.) vintage of 1870, range per gallon 18 to 45; Los Angeles 20 to 25, Anaheim 25 to 28. Cotton. — We have just been shown a sample of ginned cotton from the Merced crop of Col. John L. Strong. The cotton is exceedingly white, fine and soft, the staple being over an inch in length. We are informed by Col. S. that the yield was a bale of 500 pounds per acre. The crop was sold to the Merced Woolen Mills, and ginned at the factory. It is neither so fine nor soft as the cotton grown by the Colonel near this place, though of about equal length. But for the fact that the crop was destroyed by stock, we might have had a cotton gin in operation near Anaheim. We learn that several gentlemen propose to test cotton fairly and thoroughly in this vicinity the coming year, encouraged by the result of Col. Strong's experiment. We regret to learn that Col. S. leaves us soon for the North, where he will plant on a larger scale the coming year. If his New Paper. — We have received the first number of the California Free Press, a weekly family paper published at Sacramento by McKenny & Byron. Paymaster's Escort. — Three Government wagons camped in town on Monday night last, on their way from Wilmington to Fort Yuma. They had been traveling as escort with Col. Nelson, Paymaster U. S. A. Filed for Record. — Alfred Robinson, trustee, to Elmira W. Squires 47 and 3-10th acres in Anaheim Extension, for $567.00. Joel B. Parker to Anna L. Beckington; a city lot, for $100. Accidental Death. — George W. Deavers, a native of Kentucky, aged 42 years, and a resident of Los Nietos, was discovered, yesterday afternoon, lying dead underneath his overturned wagon, on the bank of the river, near Los Nietos. — News. Acknowledgement. — We acknowledge receipt, through the courtesy of Hon. T. D. Mott, our Representative at Sacramento, of a pamphlet entitled "The Railroad System of California," which has already been more fully noticed in these columns. Another Business House. — Mr. Richard Melrose has sold his lot on the north easterly corner of Los Angeles and Second North Streets to the Messrs. Bachs Bro., who propose to erect thereon a two-story building for the manufacture and sale of furniture. Chicken Thieves. — Somebody stole some chickens from Mr. Rimpau's resi- though of about equal length. But for the fact that the crop was destroyed by stock, we might have had a cotton gin in operation near Anaheim. We learn that several gentlemen propose to test cotton fairly and thoroughly in this vicinity the coming year, encouraged by the result of Col. Strong's experiment. We regret to learn that Col. S. leaves us soon for the North, where he will plant on a larger scale the coming year. If his efforts shall result in the establishment of cotton culture as one of the industries of the State, he has earned the lasting gratitude of our people. We can attest the patient, unselfish devotion with which he has labored to obtain this result in our own midst, and we regret that Los Angeles loses by his departure a true hearted gentleman and a valuable citizen. A LARGE CORN CROP.—On the Bolsa Chica, near the Westminster colony, stands a corn crib 128 feet long, 8 feet wide and 14 feet high, full of corn. This crop was raised by Col. John L. Strong, he informs us, without the use of other team or tools—after the ground was plowed and harrowed—than long handled shovels and hoes. The crib contains about 4,000 sacks of shelled corn, and is said to be the largest in the county. Col. S. informs us that he had about a thousand centals destroyed by stock, and saved the remainder by herding night and day. Only about half the land was irrigated. CROWDED OUT.—We regret that our limited space compels us to omit several very important matters which ought to receive extended notice from every well-regulated paper. The President's Message, the Governor's Inaugural, Legislative proceedings and some important communications at home are all left out because our paper will hold no more. We shall enlarge soon and then we can do fuller justice to our readers in the matter of general news. THE BALL AT THE PLANTERS'.—The opening of the Planters' Hotel on Saturday evening last was a decided success. The arrangements were ample and reflect much credit upon Mr. Fischer's manage- ANOTHER BUSINESS HOUSE.—Mr. Richard Melrose has sold his lot on the north easterly corner of Los Angeles and Second North Streets to the Messrs. Bachs Bro., who propose to erect thereon a two-story building for the manufacture and sale of furniture. CHICKEN THIEVES.—Somebody stole some chickens from Mr. Rimpau's residence last night. The rascal was pursued and shot at, but unfortunately escaped. PICTORIALS.—Clark has always the latest and choiceest of the magazine and newspaper world; dailies, pictorials and a fine circulating library. A good assortment of holiday presents just opening. THE NAME.—We learn that the new hotel now nearly completed by Mr. Kroeger is to be christened the "Anaheim Hotel." CALIFORNIA BREWERY.—Attention is invited to the advertisement of Mr. Conrad, in another column. The brewery has been well fitted up and is a pleasant resort for a cooling drink of lager or a quiet smoke. TAXES.—Five per cent will be added to all State and county taxes unpaid on Monday, the 18th inst. Los ANGELES "NEWS!"—Please give us credit for our articles. The report of the Anaheim Lighter Company is a case in point. METEORS.—Quite a number of meteors have appeared lately in our heavens going in all directions. Resolutions.

STEINHART. CHAR. A. GARDNER. THE BALL AT THE PLANTERS'.—The opening of the Planters' Hotel on Saturday evening last was a decided success. The arrangements were ample and reflect much credit upon Mr. Fischer's management. The building was lighted with gas, manufactured on the premises. The attendance was large, and the whole affair is to be regarded as a most auspicious commencement of the business of the new house. PERSONAL—Mr. Michael Reese, proprietor of the Alamitos Ranch and one of the wealthiest men in the State, was in Anaheim yesterday. He had a conference with F. Schneider, Esq., President of the Anaheim Lighter Company, the object of his present visit, being mainly to arrange the business relations existing between himself and that corporation. ROLLER SKATING.—We visited the rink at Los Angeles the other evening and enjoyed the spectacle very much. The proprietors Messrs Bent & Ralph offer to sell the right for Anaheim and we think some of our citizens would do well to buy it and open a rink here. PASSENGERS.—Arrived per steamer Orizaba, Dec. 9th, G. G. Greeley, W. G. Hubbard, J. H. Knapp, Capt. Abbott. Ex-California, Dec. 15th, Michael Reese, R. Luedke, Mrs. J. T. Knapp, J. T. Lewis and wife.
