Southern California. SATURDAY...JUNE 8, 1872 CHAS. A. GARDNER...Edr & Prop'r MEETING OF COUNTY CENTRAL COMMITTEE. The Democratic County Central Committee met at Los Angeles last Saturday, and, after admitting Mr. McFadden, of Anaheim, as a member to succeed John W. Clark, Esq., reigned, and electing I. W. Hellman, of Los Angeles, to succeed John King, deceased; proceeded to the question of Delegates to the State Convention. Our representative, Mr. McFadden, very properly urged that these delegates should be elected by the people, who would thus be enabled to send just such men as they wanted to represent them in the Convention. Mr. Hewitt, however, favored the opposite plan, of giving the County Committee the power of electing such delegates, without any reference to the people, and his motion prevailed, whereupon the Committee proceeded to elect the following delegates (we copy the Star's list): From the County at large—J. DeBarth Shore. FIRST DISTRICT—Consisting of Los Angeles and La Ballona—John G. Downey Walaco-Woodworth Ygnacio Sepulveda, and Antonio Coronel. SECOND DISTRICT—Wilmington and Los Nietos—E. J. C. Kewen and Judge Hollaway. THIRD DISTRICT—El Monte, San Gabriel and San Jose—F. Palomares and E. C. Parrish. FOURTH DISTRICT—Anaheim and San Newspaper Directory for 1872. We are indebted to Merrill P. Rowell & Co., the great acting agents of New York, for early copy of their "American Paper Directory" for 1872. It is a large volume of 680 pages, peculiarly valuable and interesting as containing an accurate share of the progress and status of business of journalism throughout the United States, Canada and British Dominions. It has also descriptions of all the towns and cities where papers are published within that region. From it we glean the following facts and of interest to the general reader: The aggregate number of publications in the United States is 6,432; of which 507 are daily tri-weekly. 110 semi-weekly, weekly, 21 bi-weekly, 91 monthly, 685 monthly, 4 bi-monthly, and 55 quarterly. The Territories have only 8 told, of which 18 are daily. In the Dominion of Canada the British Colonies are 403 percals, of all classes. The number of papers has increased 449 during the last year. The number of dailies decrease Florida is the only state which no daily. Weekly new-paper the favorite advertising media California has 191 periodicals which 36 are daily and 124 were New York has 951, the last number of any one state; next Pennsylvania with 614 Illinois. to elect the following delegates (we copy the Star's list): From the County at large—J. DeBarth Shore. FIRST DISTRICT—Consisting of Los Angeles and La Ballona—John G. Downey Walac-Woodworth Ygnacio Sepulveda, and Antonio Coronel. SECOND DISTRICT—Wilmington and Los Nietos—E. J. C. Kewen and Judge Hollaway. THIRD DISTRICT—El Monte, San Gabriel and San Jose—F. Palomares and E. C. Parrish. FOURTH DISTRICT—Anaheim and San Juan—Don Prudencia Yorba and J. R. Me Connell. We do not like this method of electing delegates, considering it un-Democratic and an unwarranted assumption of power on the part of the County Committee. Another thing which is exceedingly unjust to us is the appointment of a stranger to represent Anaheim. There are plenty of good men in the Southern part of the county who are eminently qualified to represent their own neighbors and their own interests, and we think the Committee have done an unwise thing in ignoring our rights to a representation by one of our own men. RICHLAND. This fine settlement seems to be thriving equal to the most sanguine expectations of its enterprising projectors Newcomers are buying land almost every day. Crops are excellent. Capt Glassell has just shown us a stalk of Norway oats, from a field growing there, which is over eight feet high, and is not yet in full head. He is looking for a two-story header now, to harvest these oats with. Hear what he says: "HOW IS THIS FOR HIGH? In Richland, Norway oats not yet in full head, but growing, are over eight feet high. Strawberries from plants set out in January, measure four inches in circumference, and the third crop is being gathered. New settlers are coming in rapidly and buying land at one fourth its value. But they complain that all the land here is so good it is hard to make a selection. Sorry we have no sand beds nor alkali swamps to them." GRANT NOMINATED As was generally expected,ident Grant was, on Thursday,nominated at Philadelphia for election to the Presidency.W of Massachusetts was nominated the Vice Presidency.Follow concerning the proceedings of Convention, is from the Express. The Convention was called under ex-Gov. Claflin, of Mass., sets, and Morton McMichael Philadelphia, selected as temporary chairman. The convention was dressed by Senator Logan, G Smith, Nye, Morton and one who cologized Grant, and produced his election Ex-Governor Or South Carolina, and W. H Graff Arkansas negro, also spoke. The Committee on Resolution was composed of Gov. Hawley Conn., J H Withington of Herman Roson of Ill., James S of Kentucky, W. A Howard Michigan, L. H. Head, of New Gov. Hayes, of Ohio, R. Kinga Oregon, G. W. Schofield and Ellege.(colored) of S.C., J B Sferer of Colorado and John T Coideh. General Albright, chair of the committee on organization reported the name of Thomas tules, of North Carolina, for president president, and he was elected Gov. Pierport, of West Virgina seceded from the delegation of State, and in a speech declared preference for Greeley. DEATH OF JAMES GORN BENNETT. On Saturday last, June 1st, one of the most famous men in history of American journalism eight feet high. Strawberries from plants set out in January, measure four inches in circumference, and the third crop is being gathered. New settlers are coming in rapidly and buying land at one fourth its value. But they complain that all the land here is so good it is hard to make a selection. Sorry we have no sand beds nor alkali swamps to show them. Five hundred acres will be put in vineyards next year, and everybody is happy. AN APPLICATION. The editor of the Santa Barbara Times notes the inconveniences of the citizens of New York, who live in the suburbs and do business in the city, and adds: "Those who have tried the thing in the suburbs of Santa Barbara will appreciate its salient points." This is about as good a joke as the Salinas City editor perpetrated, who upon the occasion of the great Chicago fire condoled with "our sister city" in its great affliction. Verily, we apples swim. Selah! SHALL WE CELEBRATE? We find our exchanges all making this inquiry, and it strikes us as rather pertinent to Anaheim as well as other large cities, as it is getting pretty near the eleventh hour for making calculations. The Fire Company propose to do something, and perhaps it would be well for a Committee of Citizens to confer with that body and see if we cannot all join together in some pleasant and appropriate manner of spending the great holiday of the Nation. DEATH OF JAMES GORRIS BENNETT. On Saturday last, June 1st, one of the most famous men in history of American journalism James Gordon Bennett, secondly to Horace Greeley as an editor and successful newspaper man, died at New York city on that day the 72d year of his age.

THE READ LAW. The Civil Code provides but all certain reeding to have public or private rights laid out and opened for travel; must file a notice or complaint in the District Court; instead of petitioning the Board of Supervisors, as has herebefore then the gubernial Aces.
