Election Returns Election returns are not yet complete but they are full enough to show that the Republican Presidential ticket has carried the Union by an overwhelming majority. Telegraphic reports give 28 states for Grant, 8 for Greeley (which ones are not stated) and the balance doubtful. Returns from this county are very nearly it not quite complete, and the last footing—up shows Grant and Kewen ahead, with majorities of 200 for the former and 12 for the latter. How it was For ours.—Among the reminiscences told of the Franco-Prussian war is the account of a curious duel between two subordinate officers of the French army. "You intend to fight a duel eh?" asked the commandant: "Yes, Colonel. Words have passed which can only be wiped out by blood. We don't want to pass for cowards." "Very well, you shall fight, but it must be in this way: Take your carbines, place yourself in a line facing Malmaison, where the enemy is. You will march upon their garrison with equal step. When sufficiently near their posts you will fire upon them. The Prussians will reply. You continue to adhere to the constant stream of humanity which is pouring into the southern counties in fast settling up the fertile valleys, and next season, many thousand acres of land, that have never known the virtue of civilized tillage, still yield to the pioneers a full harvest for their labor. New towns are springing up as if by magic, where but a few months ago all was desolation and wilderness, and the white tents that dotted the face of the country, as the stars fill the firmament above, are giving place to the more comfortable cottage and the neat farm-house of the settler. It is impossible to consider the progress of improvements already commenced, the long trains of emigrants that are wending their way thitherward, and the natural productiveness of the soil, and not predict a brilliant and lasting future for the southern counties. We hear daily of teams going south some to Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and San Diego, bearing with them furniture and farming implements, and followed by lighter wagons and buggies, filled with the families of the hardy pioneers, who have gone ahead to view the promised land, or perchance, have dropped behind with their droves of loose stock. These thin-skinned volumes to us unsophisticated cow-countries, and we are led to exclaim in language both forcible and ancient, "from whence cometh this multitude." But the question is unnecessary, for there is something in the manner and bearing of these people that belong on y to old Californians, and the question naturally arises are we building up the "You intend to night a duel en: asked the commandant: 'Yes, Colonel. Words have passed which can only be wiped out by blood. We don't want to pass for cowards.' "Very well, you shall fight, but it must be in this way: Take your carbines, place yourself in a line facing Malmaison, where the enemy is. You will march upon their garrison with equal step When sufficiently near their posts you will fire upon them. The Prussians will reply. You continue to advance and fire. When one falls the other may turn upon his heels, and his retreat shall be covered by one of my companies. The matter was arranged as the commandant had dictated. At twelve paces from the walls of Malmaison, one of the adversaries was wounded staggered, and fell. The other ran to him, raised him up, and carried him off on his shoulders amid a peasant hall-storm of balls—both thenceforth were entitled to the greatest honor, and respect from the whole regiment. GIBRALTAR.—Until you set foot on Gibraltar, you can form no idea of its impregnability. Very properly its real strength cannot be seen from a ship in the bay; only when you land do you find that the sea-wall bristles with heavy guns, and groans beneath piles of ball; only as you traverse its flank do you see how formidable breech-loaders peep from every available chink, and powerful mortars lurk behind every convenient embankment. And not until you penetrate the body of the roack, do you get any just notion of the marvellous piece of military engineering exhibited in its "galleeries." There are tunnels excavated from the solid rock, parallel to its outer side, but some thirty feet therefrom, and large enough to drive a carriage through. They are in two tiers, and comprise a total length of nearly three miles. At every thirty feet or so along them, spacious embrasures are out-bewn, that terminate in commanding portholes, which look to a spectator outside the rock like swallow's nestholes in a sand cliff. STRANGE FREAK OF LIGHTNING — A young lady, while standing in a window at Morgantown, Butler county, Ky., received a slight shock from a flash of lightning. On her recovery, it was found that an ailantus tree, standing near the window, had been accurately photographed by the electric flash upon gone ahead to view the promised land, or perchance, have dropped behind with their droves of loose stock. These thin speak volumes to us unsophisticated cow-countyites, and we are led to exclaim in language both forecible and ancient, "from whence cometh this multitude." But the question is unnecessary, for there is something in the manner and bearing of these people that belong on y to old Californians, and the question naturally arises are we building up the southern counties by tearing down the northern ones. We often see friends that have tillied the soil of Santa Clara since '52 going south which certainly tends to the affirmative, and the only argument against this solution is, that new comers from the East are taking their places in the upper counties, though we see nothing in our exchanges to confirm this supposition.—Salinas City Index. The following spicy item little is from the Fulton (N.Y.) Times, one of the most welcome exchanges that comes to our table: The Fulton (N.Y.) Times tells of tall corn, 10 feet high: that a circumstance to corn around Anaheim; we'll have some measured and show you what we call big corn here. [Southern California] Never mind; we come down without waiting to hear the report of your measurement. But you ask Barter if 10 feet isn't a pretty fair height for corn to grow in one season up in the country where he learned type-sticking. But we acknowledge the country don't begin with the Paradise which produces grapes that weigh 64 pounds to the single stem! ICE AND WIND.—For fear that coolness might arise between ourselves and subscribers we have here before refrained from mentioning the fact that ice formed in Anaheim and vicinity on the night of Sunday Oct. 27. On that same Sunday also occurred the first sand storm that we have had for four months,and we are pleased to be able to say that it was not a 'Santa Ana,' nor peeahar to the latitude of Anaheim but raged in San Diego and throw dirt in the eyes of our Los Angeles friends, as viciously and promptly as was its strict attention to business here. Good bye, old Boreas. Next time you come within forty mile STRANGE FREAK OF LIGHTNING — A young lady, while standing in a window at Morgantown, Butler county, Ky., received a slight shock from a flash of lightning. On her recovery, it was found that an ailantus tree, standing near the window, had been accurately photographed by the electric flash upon her breast. This reminds a friend that in his youth he was the object of photography. He had told his father that he was "a demented old jackass." This playful remark enraged the unreasonable father and he interviewed his son. When the interview was over the son felt that he had been struck by lightning and that a photograph of a man's hand was distinctly visible—but not where he could see the picture. Lightning is guilty of strange freaks at times.

Ar Preston Ill., a few days since died Judge James Thompson, the surveyor of the original town site of Chicago. For his labor he preferred a few dollars to the choice of town lots. Death of D'Anhigue. The announcement is made of the death of John Beary Merle d'Anhigue, the famous Swiss historian and theologian, whose name is almost familiar in this country as in Europe. The following sketch of this remarkable man's life will be read with interest. He was born at the village of Eaux Vines in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland, Aug. 16, 1794, and was therefore 78 years of age at the time of his death. His early years were devoted to the study of theology, under the tuition and lectures of the learned Neander. In 1818, he was ordained a minister and settled in Hamburg, as the pastor of the French Calvinist church, in that city. In 1823, he removed to Brussels, where for seven years he officiated as the pastor of the leading Protestant church and where he became the Court preacher and personal friend of the late King of Holland who was at that time King of the United Netherlands. Upon the separation of Belgium from the crown of the House of Orange, he returned to Switzerland and are predestined by the Evangelical Society of Geneva. This position gave him an opportunity of prosecuting the great work of his life and, in 1835, he gave to the public the first volume of his "History of the Reformation in the Sixteenth Century." "The work met with an astonishing success, almost immediately throughout all Protestant Christianity, attracted not only the warmest admiration from Protestants." DR.
