Southern Californian SATURDAY NOV. 20. 1872 L. P. FISHER, 20 and 21 New Marshanta Exchange is our authorized Agent in San Francisco Irrigation a Fertilizer. Damascus is one of the oldest, if not the very oldest, city in the world. Tradition there locates the grave of Adam, Abel, Seth. Noath and other early ancestors of our race. Damascus is surrounded by a dreary desert, yet is itself a marvelous oasis, the fertility of which runs back to the earliest records of the world's history. Water first made this fertility possible, and water keeps it up without any signs of deterioration. The water is taken from the rivers Abana and Parphar, and, considering what agricultural wealth and blessings they were and are the source of, it is no wonder that the infidel lepor-general Naaman was filled with doubting rage when told to go and wash in Jordan for the cure of his disease, while he had in mind the two great fertilizing and life-giving rivers of his own city. Horace Greeley later expressed a doubt whether any amply-irrigated field is less fertile to-day than it was on the morning of creation. The history of Damascus proves beyond a doubt that it is not. Water is wealth all through the East, where the climate, the topography of the country, and the composition of the soil are almost exactly the counterpart of those of California. The San Joaquin Valley practically produced not a ton of wheat in 1871; it yielded 300,000 tons in 1872. Water, and water alone, made the difference between utter sterility and starvation and trade with Armenia. Mr. Antonio Yorba of this started on Tuesday last for A with 132 head of sheep. This reminds us that A has quite a trade with that country, two of our citizens: Mersa Pedro Blanco and H Garfias, each on his own having been for a long time engaged exclusively in the be They make regular trips with horse teams, loaded with tobacco, fruits, and whatever commodity can be most availously taken. The round triumphs about three months. Literary Notices. The American Farmers' Association for Nov. is received. It is a fine monthly publication devoted to the interests of Agriculture, published by the "Advocate Pub Co." Jackson, Tennessee, at year. The Overland Monthly.-The favorite magazine is promptly for December. Its contents include Isles of the Amazonas, Part IV., The Northern California Indians Lost, Asphodel, (Poetry), Legend of the Montecito Grape-Arab Literature and Love-Lore Origin of our Antiquities, Winning the Race—In a Double Living Glaciers of California, John and Margaret (Poetry). Ultrawa No. III.-Bay Coast, The Building of the University, Etc., Current Literature, Record of Marriages, &c. Published by John H. Carr to-day than it was on the morning of creation. The history of Damascus proves beyond a doubt that it is not. Water is wealth all through the East, where the climate, the topography of the country, and the composition of the soil are almost exactly the counterpart of those of California. The San Joaquin Valley practically produced not a ton of wheat in 1871; it yielded 300,000 tons in 1872. Water, and water alone, made the difference between utter sterility and starvation and bursting granaries and abundance. California without irrigation and California with a well developed system for the artificial use of water, will bear the same comparison to each other that the tiny and unreliable brook does to the wide and ever-flowing river. The knowledge of these facts and a purpose to turn them to practical account is just beginning to be awakened.—Real Estate Circular. For Propriety's Sake.—The Grass Valley Union of the 17th says: "Joseph and His Brethren" was played last night at Hamilton Hall by young gentlemen and ladies who are connected with the Methodist Congregation of this place. We noticed that one important character of the drama was left out. Potiphar's wife was not in any of the scenes. The play was like "Hamlet" with the character of Hamlet left out. We can account for the omission. No young lady in this town would assume the role of Mrs. Potiphar. The girls did not have the proper confidence in the Joseph of the play. They did not think he would tear any great amount of clothes in escaping from any good looking Mrs. Potiphar. They were correct.—Figaro. A Generous Deed.—When Mr Bancroft, after the announcement or the settlement of the San Juan question, inquired at the Foreign Office for an account of the expenses incurred, he was answered that the German Government had no bill against the United States. This was a kingly—nay, an imperial act worthy of a great monarch, a great country. We rejoice at this, not because the Emperor did not see fit that his abstention was not a clerical or menial service, to be paid for by so much gold, but because it is such an indication of friendly feeling toward our country and its Government. May that friendly feeling be reciprocated and long endure.—Inyo Independent. Steamer Opposition.—A has been recived by Culver Jorres, to the effect that therers Olympia and William will commence running in tion to the P.M.S.S.Co.'s ers, on the Southern Coast r very short time. The letter states that it is the intention Mail Company to run the s Ancon and Mohongo on tr days as the opposition board that the regular trips of tha ba and Pacific will not be in with.—San Diego Union. Work on the S.D., & S.B.—Fifty men are now eng grading the S.D. & S.B. R between this city and Old Town the force will be still further ed in a few days by the add fifty Chinamen. Everythi the first five miles betok greatest activity. We have whatever that the grading road will be completed as Old Town by the first of th ing year.—San Diego Union. Newspapers Destroyed. ty-seven periodicals were out in the Boston fire, among we notice: Ballous M Flag of Our Union, Literar panion, Waverly Magazine man & Reflector, Pilot, Novelette, and the favorite Optic Magazine. Transit of Venus.—purpose of doing justice to sit of Venus, which is to ta in December, 1874, En preparing heliophotographic ratuses on the model of Kew. Russia has three o model, and ordered a four many also will have four one. Those of the Unite will be of a different ma those used by the French A SMART TRICK.—A young Briton lately lost a large sum by betting on spiders. He wagered that a spider which he would produce would cross a plate quicker than a spider to be produced by a friend. Each spider to have his own plate. His spider, however, on being started, would not stir, whilst its rival ran with immense speed. The bad was consequently lost; and the loser soon found out the reason why—his friend had a hot plate. This was nearly as smart a trick as that practiced on Mark Twain's famous jumping frog of Calaveras. At a party where questions were asked and facetious if not felicitous answers were expected, a coal dealer asked what legal authority was the favorite with his trade. One answered "Coke." "Right," said the coal dealer. Another suggested "Blackstone." "Good, too," said the questioner. Then a little hard-faced man in the corner piped, "Littleton." Whereupon the coal dealer sat down without saying anything. An Oregon Sheriff attached a show in that far away country the other day, and while tacking up a "tale" notice on the elephant's hindquarters, which the official mistook for a barn, the animal awang his tail around—and, now when that county wants another Sheriff it will have to elect one. Antonio Yorba of this place on Tuesday last for Arizona head of sheep. Reminds us that Anaheim is a trade with that far-off two of our citizens viz: Pedro Blanco and Enrique Beach on his own account, keen for a long time past exclusively in the business, like regular trips with six-name, loaded with liquors, fruits, and whatever other city can be most advantageous. The round trip consists three months. Literary Notices. American Farmers' Advocate is received. It is a large monthly publication devoted to reports of Agriculture.

A story is told of an editor who died, went to heaven and was denied admittance, lest he should meet some delinquent subscriber, and bad feeling would be engendered in that peaceful clime. Having to go somewhere, the editor appeared in regions of darkness, but was positively refused admittance, as the place was full of delinquent subscribers. Wearily the editor turned back to the celestial city, and was met by the watchman of the portals with a smile who said, "I was mistaken—you can enter. There are no delinquent subscribers in heaven."
