ANAHEIM.
Probably no town in the State is to day, in a more thriving or prosperous condition than this. Growing as fast as anyone could desire every day a new building being put up to meet an actual want, it is at this moment enjoying a degree of prosperity which few other points can equal. Building is going on all the time. The sound of "the hammer and saw" is ever to be heard. Nothing is done upon speculation. No man builds a house until he wants it. The principal difficulty is for new comers to find houses to get into until they can build. Families are now boarding here waiting for their dwellings to be completed. Although the number of business places has nearly doubled within six months, there is no abatement in the opening of new ones, and the inauguration of new enterprises. Every issue of this paper contains the announcement of one or more new firms. Within six or eight months back the growth is astonishing; without making any calculation for exactness of detail, we can readily recall to mind the following improvements within that time:
Planter's Hotel, rebuilt by Mr. John Fischer, a fine, large structure these new businesses have sprung and so many new buildings erected. In the meantime all old firms are going on and gaining in trade and profit. They has solid, substantial resource back it, no collapse is possible the ordinary course of human action and the interests and industries have done thus much to build city here are daily growing and stronger, and will certainly duce greater and ever increase results as each year goes by.
THE 35th PARALEL
San Francisco and St. Louis been consulting together on building the 35th parallel road. former talks through the Executive Committee of the Committee of Hundred; the latter through a negotiation of her prominent citizen across the Continent for that pose.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 6th—a large meeting of influential citizens-day, on the Thirty-fifth Prairie Railroad, unanimously accepted the proposition of the St. Louis station for a subscription of $10,000 by San Francisco to the office of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad and R. G. Sneath, Judge Jo Hager, and C. T. Hopkins were pointed commissioners to proceed with the immediate commencement work.
RAILROAD MEETING
Every issue of this paper contains the announcement of one or more new firms. Within six or eight months back the growth is astonishing; without making any calculation for exactness of detail, we can readily recall to mind the following improvements within that time:
