The operation of the Littigant Law has ceased and all litigant printing from our people or concerning matters in this part of the county should, in justice to all concerned, be published here. NOTICE TO EASTERN ADVERTISERS. In consequence of the failure of Hudson & Menet, advertising agents, of New York, to pay their bills due us for advertising R. H. McDonald & Co.'s VINEGAR BITTERS, and for which they now stand dishonored on our books to the amount of $22 coin, this paper will decline all further business from that firm. The above mentioned claim is for sale cheap at this office. Advertisements from the East, to secure attention, must hereafter be sent through the agencies of Geo. P. Rowell & Co., New York; or Coe, Wetherill & Co., Philadelphia. RAILROAD. We publish on the first page quite SHEEP IN THE EARLY DAYS. From the article on "Sheep Farming in California" in the Open Land Monthly for June, we learn some curious facts in regard to extent of sheep raising in early days of the settlement of California. It appears that as early 1825 there were at the much alone, between San Diego and Francisco 1,003,970 sheep excluited of those owned by the ranches which were probably as numerous, making in all over 2,000,000 sheeps at that time in the state. The number however decreased greatly several years so that in 1831 there were at the missions only 150 sheep, or about one-seventh as many six years previous. The process of wool has gradually increased from 175,000 pounds in 1854 to 22,188 pounds in 1871. A Singular Case. The funeral of John Sex at Angeles on Monday last, gives illustration of the strong prejudice of the Catholic Church against cretors' orders. Deceased was a member of St. Patrick's Benevolent Society and its members turned out into force and regalia, to pay the tribute of respect to the memorial departed. The News says: "The procession was met at entrance by the Vicar-General, informed them that the body not be conveyed into the church." RAILROAD. We publish on the first page quite a full report of the railroad meeting at Los Angeles, last Saturday, the reports of speeches being copied from the News. Nothing is done as yet except to pass resolutions, and appoint a Committee of Thirty, of which Anaheim has two members, W. R. Olden and John P. Zeyn; and Santa Ana two, A. L. Bush and Gabriel Allen. It seems rather premature as yet to consider the question of subsidy, before there is any certainty that it will arise, but we feel warranted in saying that the people south of the San Gabriel will never consent to pay for any railroad that merely passes through the northern end of the county and is calculated to benefit only the city of Los Angeles. The policy of railroad subsidies is not an universally accepted faith, at best, even when the benefit to be derived is fairly distributed among those who pay for it, much less would the people of our township, and those south of us, be willing to contribute one twentieth of all their property to build a road through a small portion of the county, which would not only be of no particular advantage to us, but, we think would actually injure us by diverting emigration and improvement to another section of the county. We await further developments. We are sorry to see, in the Kern County Courier, a scurrilous personal attack upon Mr. Lawrence, formerly of this paper, who has recently gone to Havilah to publish the Miner. The establishment of a paper at Havilah is, of course, detrimental to the business interests of the Courier, but every honorable journal gives a cordial welcome to all further business from that firm. The above mentioned claim is for sale cheap at this office. Advertisements from the East, to secure attention, must hereafter be sent through the agencies of Geo. P. Rowell & Co., New York; or Coe, Wetherill & Co., Philadelphia. “The procession was met at entrance by the Vicar-General, informed them that the body cannot be conveyed into the church funeral rites performed, nor passport to heaven, if the memoir of the St. Patrick’s Benevolent Society accompanied it; that they disrobed themselves of regalia and still attended as memoir of the society, it would be impossible; that they could only permitted to attend as private zens. The brotherhood decline comply with the Father’s command and withdrew, with the exception of the pall bearers, in deferring the feelings of the friends and relatives or the deceased, the pall bearers taking off their regalia and peering as private citizens. To the second time within the last months that the Roman Catholicry in this city have taken stand under similar circumstances, the first case being that of a deed Good Templar.” THE OVERLAND MONTHLY. — June No. of this magazine arrived in good time. The article “Sheep Farming in Cotnia,” by John Hayes, is a very interesting and valuable one, gives us many new ideas about history and business of wool ing. It should be read by all aspire to a passable knowledge of the resources of their own country. “What was it?” is rather an factory ghost story, by Crome. The other article “Kodiak and Southern Alaska” presents,” a poem, “It Occurs Tuesday,” “An American Art Vanished Hope,” a poem, Northern California Indians III, “Patty Dree, Schoolman pleasant California sketch,” “Expedition to the North.” “Woven Threads on Goodness Parable of Nature” a poem, “The Owens,” besides the “Etc,” “Current Literature.” We are sorry to see, in the Kern County Courier, a scurrilous personal attack upon Mr. Lawrence, formerly of this paper, who has recently gone to Havilah to publish the Miner. The establishment of a paper at Havilah is, of course, detrimental to the business interests of the Courier, but every honorable journal gives a cordial welcome to new competitors. whatever clash may ensue in subsequent business matters. The Courier only shows its inability to meet the issue in a fair way, by attempting to ridicule Mr. Lawrence and making a false statement that the Gazette upon which he was formerly engaged had been suspended. This is not so, as the Courier probably very well knows. There was simply a change in the name of the Gazette to Southern California. Such an attack must bring the Courier into contempt with all manly publishers, and whatever notice Mr. Lawrence may take of it, we feel assured that he is too much of a gentleman to descend to the use of the same dishonorable weapons. TROUBLE AT THE MONTE.—We are informed that Asa Ellis lately received a good sound drubbing from one of his constituents, for supporting the No-Fence Law in the Legislature. We have no doubt that he deserved it on general principles but it is a great pity that it should have been inflicted for the only redeeming act of his whole political career. If you want your doors grained or your rooms papered or frescoed in the neatest and most artistic style why of course go to Payne Brox. A Good Joke.—Mark Twain commends one of his correspondents to eat fish for the sake of the phorns in forming brain, and vises his victim that in his lar case he thinks about two will be necessary to accomplish desired result. Now we would like to be guilty of so rough on any of our friends, but we move, as an amendment, that party go over to the GRASTAURANT where he will find of so good a quality and so prepared that it will strain both his muscles and his life get it under his jacket. If so, then we're no doctor. If you want your carriage polished up in such a stitched it will answer for a shaving take it to Payne Brox. THE EARLY DAYS, An article on "Sheep-California" in the Operatory for June, we learn facts in regard to the sheep raising in the settlement of Calpeappears that as early as were at the missions in San Diego and San 1003,970 sheep exclusive named by the rancheros, probably as numerous all over 2,000,000 sheep in the state. The numer decreased greatly for so that in 1831 there missions only 150,000 mont one-seventh as many previous. The product gradually increased from lands, in 1854 to 22,181, in 1871. Singular Case.

A bill is now before the Canadian Parliament providing for a cash subsidy of $20,000,000, and a land grant of alternate sections for a width of 40 miles, to aid in the construction of a railroad from Lake Nipissing, lat. 46 deg., 30 min. to Pawtucket, lat. 39 deg., 30 min., a distance of about 2,700 miles. A horrible massacre recently occurred in Texas. A train loaded with commissary stores for the Government was attacked by Mexicans and Indians, and seventeen persons, men, women and children, were tied to the wagons and burned to death. A new scheme has been organized at the South in the Gulf States, for introducing Chinese labor. A stock company has been formed with a capital of $200,000, and from 6,000 to 8,000 immigrants per year are to be brought over from China. Victoria C. Woodhull was nominated for President at a meeting of the Female Suffrage advocates held in New York. No nomination was made for the Vice-Presidency. The Panther Signal says that crops are very fine in the Santa Clara valley. Barley is the best crop, and is expected to make an average yield of 100 bushels per acre. W. D. F. Richards, of San Buenaventura, has planted five acres of canary bird seed as an experiment. The crop looks well: There are about 50 artesian wells in and near San Bernardino, in active operation, ranging in depth from 50 to 190 feet. The Central Company have had engineers out surveying a route for the road from Milton to Copperopolis. The San Bernardino Guardian has a DID In San Francisco, May 19, Henry Simox, aged 71 years and 5 months. Mr. Simon was the father of our former fellow citizen Mr. B. Simon. He spent several weeks in Anaheim last year, and most of us remember his genial nature, his kind courteous demeanor and the many excellent qualities that endeared him to all who would consider it enough to make his acquaintance.

A large and brilliant company assembled last evening at the Anbeim Hotel to enjoy the romance and pleasure of a dance en masque. The youth and beauty of Anaheim were well represented and, judging from the masks, the age and ugliness as well. The dining room of the hotel was cleared for dancing, and tastily ovammented with wreaths, flowers, flags and Chinese lanterns. About forty masked characters appeared, dressed in all imaginable styles; in costumes rich and beautiful, imposing and dignified, grotesque, ugly and funny. Captain Knox looked exceedingly sedate as a Mexican Gentleman of the old regime. Peter Richards was a bold Sailor Boy of the U.S.A. T. J. Swayne appeared as "Unknown."
