Southern Californian GEO. C. KNOX EDITOR SATURDAY JUNE 7, 1873 L. P. FISHER, 20 and 21 New Merchante' Exchange, is our authorized Agent in San Francisco COUNTY DIVISION CENTRAL COMMUTEER: GEO. C. KNOX, Chairman; A. L. BUSH, W. H. SPURGEON, E. W. CHAMPLIN. FOR MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATURE A. L. BUSH, OF SANTA ANA. Col. Scott's Report. The San Diego Union of June 3d publishes in full the annual report of President Scott to the stockholders of the Texas Pacific Railroad Company. We regret that our limited space prevents the reprint of the entire document, as it is upon a subject, interesting to our patrons, almost in as great a degree as to the San Diegans. We call from the report, however, the main points in regard to the progress of construction and the general physical features of the line. The work through the State of Texas has been rapidly pushed forward in order to obtain the bonds and land grants, conditionally donated by that State. Although many obstacles both financial and physical, presented themselves, the company engaged in construction, have succeeded in completing the grading on over four hundred miles of the line through Texas, and have distributed along three hundred miles of this distance the iron cross-ties and fastenings, necess- Editorial Notes. A convention of Irishmen will be held at Cleveland, Ohio next month to provide for the formation of a National League. The object of the league is stated to be the advancement of the political and business interests of naturalized Irish with out distinction of party, and irrespective of the rights of their fellow citizens. The Chronicle of San Francisco very justly censures the movement, as calculated to en-gender strife and discord in our social relations and as having a tendency to produce political anarchy. The Chinese outrages, which gave Los Angeles an unenviable notoriety, are being reproduced on a modified scale in San Francisco. In Los Angeles, a turbulent, reckless mob composed of the worst class of the community, were the actors whilst in San Francisco political tricksters assisted indirectly by the municipal authorities, make capital with a like mob pandering to their vicious proclivities. We do not feel an ardent love for the Mongolian race; but we believe in the preservation of the national integrity, as long as there is a reciprocal treaty between the United States and China, such doings should meet with not only severe cure, but rigid punishment from the Federal Government. The Resources of California, published in San Francisco, is doing a good work disseminating a more thorough knowledge about these matters. The work through the State of Texas has been rapidly pushed forward in order to obtain the bonds and land grants, conditionally donated by that State. Although many obstacles both financial and physical, presented themselves, the company, engaged in construction, have succeeded in completing the grading on over four hundred miles of the line through Texas, and have distributed along three hundred miles of this distance the iron cross-ties and fastenings necessary to place in running order that length of road. The route west of Fort Worth has been thoroughly examined and, although not finally located, a line has been obtained, possessing unexpectedly favorable advantages, both in grades, curvature and lightness of work. Exhaustive surveys were made of the country between Fort Yuma and San Diego. The route passing through San Gorgonio Pass via Santa Margarita Canyon was adopted after mature deliberation, being commercially fifty miles the shortest," although in reality sixty miles longer. After noticing the financial condition of the company and the different connections of the road with Eastern cities, Col. Scott, referring to the physical advantages possessed by the Texas Pacific over other transcontinental routes, quotes from the report of Chief Engineer Dodge, as follows: The remarkable features in this line are, first its uniformity of grades and altitudes in crossing the continent. After reaching the general altitude of the mesa through Western Texas and New Mexico of about 3,000 feet, it holds that elevation until it descends to the level of the sea at the Colorado. This line overcomes every mountain range west of the Guadaloupe to the Pacific with remarkably light grades, easy curvature, and comparatively light work. It is the shortest line from the commercial centers to the Pacific, and only equals in length the Union Pacific, from New York to San Francisco. From ocean to ocean it is 1,450 miles by our surveys as against 3,300 miles on any completed or contemplated route. Along its entire length the country is susceptible of maintaining a heavy population. A large one exists now, and it will develop a larger extent of mineral and agricultural country, that is susceptible of production than any other line that can be obtained. Assuring the company of his belief in the ability of the road to prove a self-sustaining institution, mile by mile, as it is completed, on account of the large local traffic which will arise along the entire line, and expressing his confidence in the soundness of their finances, he states that: "The Board see no reason why the entire line shall not be finished within a period of five years, in quality fully up to the standard required by the charter of the company, and, therefore, much within the time granted for completion." The Resources of California, published in San Francisco, is doing a good work disseminating a more thorough knowledge of the capabilities and physical advantages of our State. Not allied to any section, columns are devoted to the interests of the entire Pacific coast. We note we pardonable pride that, in a late issue of CALIFORNIA is largely quoted in referencing the different settlements in the San Ana valley. We are gratified that efforts in making known this section of the State are assisted by so able and efficient a journal. The frosts that injured our vine during April were much more severe than the wine region of France. The thometer between the 25th and 28th April fell to seven degrees below zero; the accounts taken from French papers that date we noticed that the damage greatest in the low land; the vineyards along the hill sides not being so seriously injured. It will be remembered that same feature occurred here; the vineyards of Upper Santa Ana escaped unintentionally Anaheim suffered material damage. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS FOR COUNTY RECORDER. S.

GRAY will be a candidate for the office of COUNTY RECORDER before the people enquire Democratic primaries, to be held on 26th of June. FOR RECORDER AND AUDITOR.

CUMMINGS announces himself candidate for county Superintendent of Public Schools, subject to nomination at the erotic primaries. FOR COUNTY SURVEYOR. FRANK LECOUVREUR, the present president of Federal Government. Let Us Have a Bank. One of the crying wants of Anaheim is the absence of all facilities for negotiating short loans even on good approved securities. The principal interests of the people of this section centre in wine, grain and sheep, and at certain seasons of each year, it is necessary for the producer to have coin to meet the demands made upon him by the labor, required to prepare his stuff for market. The banking houses of Los Angeles have more than they can do, to meet the home demand upon their vaults; consequently, the agriculturist and the small wool-grower must rely entirely upon the local merchant to supply his necessities, either of money or produce. The merchant has as a rule, his available capital invested in his store, and can not afford to make cash advances for even a short time. Last year there was shipped from the port of Anaheim Landing 3,000 bales of wool, 50,000 sacks of grain and 2,000 pipes of wine representing a cash value of over $500,000. The amount of wool, shipped from the same point during the present year will be about double, as in 1871-72, a large number of sheep men were compelled to remove their flocks to the lower country on account of a scarcity of feed. The agricultural interests of the section are being largely increased by the tide of immigration, which is rapidly pouring in. Altogether, the value of shipments from Anaheim Landing this year will not fall far short of $1,000,000. We briefly present these facts to our readers; and would more especially call the attention of our Eastern friends, who NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. (From the Express and Star.) San Francisco, June 4. — Johnny Cokely, W. B. Burke, P. Hennessy and Frank Spiller, boys, were badly burned yesterday afternoon by the explosion of a barrel which had contained alcohol, and into which one of the boys had dropped a lighted match. The report that the Hong Kong and Shanghai cable was broken is contradicted. The Grocers' Protective Association have resolved that they will not buy or sell articles of any kind manufactured by Chinese in this city, or patronize any man or firm that employs Chinamen. A dispatch from Boyle's company today says that Captain Jack and Sonchin are ironed together and placed in a small building near Applegate's house, under a strong guard. Scarface Charley protested against the indignity, but got no satisfaction. The cord of General Canby's hat was found in Captain Jack's satchel. Washington, June 3. — President Grant will spend the Summer at Long Branch. The Department of State has received a letter from Minister De Long, saying that religious toleration in Japan has not been decreed. These favoring such a policy are still in the minority. But he thought the time was not so far distant when Washington June 3—President Grant will spend the Summer at Long Branch. The Department of State has received a letter from Minister De Long, saying that religious toleration in Japan has not been decreed. Those favoring such a policy are still in the minority. But he thought the time was not so far distant when there will be universal toleration and freedom of thought. Providence, R. L., June 3.—C. II. Whipple's wool mills were burned this morning. Los, $87,000. Mostly covered by insurance in Eastern companies. Hali ax, June 3.—The schooner Jane was driven ashore by ice at Prince Edward's Island on the 17th of May. There were fourteen persons on board, four of whom perished of cold. New York, June 4.—The defense of young Watworth, who shot his father yesterday, will be insanity. The inquest will be held Friday next. The mother visited him at the Tombs, in company with Judge Barbour, a cousin of deceased While the scene was affecting, it was not marked by any display of extraordinary emotion. Charles O'Connor, the distinguished advocate, it is understood, will be retained by the defense. There is no truth whatever in the stories that the Cabinet have discussed the proper disposition of the captured Molasses. Reported statements of different views expressed by Sherman and Delano are mere guesses, based on the well known chronic differences between the army and the civil service relative to the Indian question. Columbus, Ohio, June 4.—The jury in the third trial of John Mora for the murder of Charles Thomas in 1870, after being out about twelve hours, brought in a verdict of not guilty. Easton, Me., June 4—Extensive fires are raging in the woods of Campobello and vicinity. Perry Pembroke has offered a reward for the detection of the authors.

San Francisco, June 5.—Robert Manning, one of the men arrested for the murder of Ah Tuck, has made a statement confessing that he was present at the time of the murder, but throwing all the blame on John Brennan, who is said to be insane. Now Manning says Brennan knocked the Chinaman down and then stabbed him. Brennan is very violent in his conduct today. Senator Sargent, accompanied by a party will go to the southern end of San Joaquin Valley Railroad, to inspect the great Valley, and judge of its capacity for the support of a large population and understand the schemes of irrigation. The Monana took $30,000 in treasure, and a cargo valued at $11,500. She had 600 cases of California borax on board. New York, June 5 — It is reported that the Court of Appeals has affirmed the judgment in the case of Stokes. Washington, June 5 — The President, Sherman and Delano are consulting about the disposition to be made of the Modocs.
