Southern Californian GEO. C. KNOX...EDITOR. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1873. L. P. FISHER, 20 and 21 New Merchants' Exchange, is our authorized Agent in San Francisco. SIGNS OF THE TIMES. Every sign of the times indicates the probability of an exodus of the crowded population, both of Europe and the older States, and that this outgoing will commence at no distant period. We have already alluded to the fact that the mining and agricultural industries of Great Britain were rapidly failing, and deduced therefrom the certainty of the emigration of the laboring classes of that country. We have since learned that the officers of an English Colonization Company have purchased 540 square miles of land in the State of Kansas, and that a portion of the colony has already settled upon the purchase. W. W. Clark, an agent of the Union Land and Immigrant Bureau of London, is now in San Francisco in search of tracts of land, suitable for large colonies. Inquiry from abroad is the order of the day, for one thing presents itself as a self evident truth to the European laborer—in order to support himself and family by his own personal exertions, he must emigrate. In the Atlantic States another class of labor begins to look abroad for future sustenance. In almost every telegraph from the manufacturing districts of the East, manufactories are reported as closed down or else running on half time. Wages, already low, are being reduced, and everything prognosticates dull times during the approaching winter season, and in consequence several amendments to the Constitution of California are being agitated, history to bringing them before the Legislature for their action. A proposal in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the time, at which the nature shall meet; it is also proposed in the day, for one thing presents itself as a self evident truth to the European laborer—in order to support himself and family by his own personal exertions, he must emigrate. In the Atlantic States another class of labor begins to look abroad for future sustenance. In almost every telegram from the manufacturing districts of the East, manufactories are reported as closed down or else running on half time. Wages, already low, are being reduced, and everything prognosticates dull times during the approaching winter season, and in consequence severe suffering to the laboring population. This may have been partly caused by the recent money troubles, but if the subject should be thoroughly sifted, the chief reason would be found to be the excess of the number of laborers over the demand. Nature has bestowed her gifts upon the Pacific coast with no niggard hand, but in no section of the whole country can be found so many and so varied resources as are existing, still undeveloped, in Los Angeles county. Three large rivers, rising in the heart of mountains, pregnant with precious metals and minerals of every kind, and running to waste on immense plains, unexcelled for fertility and variety of soil, divide the county from north to south To people these mountains, to utilize the latent water-power of the rivers, and to cause the valleys to teem with vegetable life requires nothing but time. Whether that time will lie in the distant future, or whether it is in the present, rests with us. But a slight exertion on our part will attract to this section, those people who are in search of new homes. The country once known, our prosperity is assured, our growth is accomplished. BEARING FRUIT. Through the San Francisco Bulletin we learn that the attention of the Press in the Eastern States has been attracted by a comparison between the estimates of Anselm, Mentone and Alken, made by F. S. Miles, and first published in the Southern Californian. We have received also through the medium of some unknown friend, newspapers from Philadelphia and other Eastern cities, with marked paragraphs, in which the superiority of the climate of Southern California over Italy and South Carolina is spoken of, and which refers to the article of Mr. Miles as a proof of the assertion. It is extremely gratifying to have thus placed before us an evidence that our labors in advancing the growth of this section are beginning to bear fruit, and it is with sincere gratitude that we attempt publicly to do honor to the gentleman, who has so kindly placed in our grasp the means and the opportunity. INCREASED FACILITIES PURCHASERS. During late years the unpleasant and the total want of courtified by Government officials, are treame difficulty of obtaining access even in matters pertaining solely office, have become proverbial seldom possible to note any this general rule of conduct inspection of the U. S. Land C Angeles, not as a Press report unknown private individual, as an illustration of this excepti James and Haverstick do not believe that their offices were the purpose of benefitting them to retard the settlement by in the public domain, but are evoked with a conscientious sense true duties, and by their uniform courtesy of manner facility for the rapid transaction matter, which is brought before their official action. We take care in giving credit to whom appreciative sense of the high and conscientious manner in matters in this district are now compels us therefore, to bear mony to the worth and efficient public servants. THE FAIR NEXT WEEK Monday is commencement annual fair of the Southern D cultural Society. Preparation made on an extensive scale for programme interesting, as wificial to the community. Blooded stock, especially from county, will be remarkably trials of speed, in which "flivers" from the upper coun GOV. DOWNEY'S PAMPHLET. We acknowledge the courtesy of Gov. Downey in furnishing our desk with a copy of his able essay upon the subject of irrigation, recently read before the Farmers' Club Committee, during their session in Los Angeles. Gov. Downey, who is well known as one of our oldest and most enterprising citizens, has devoted much time and study to the advancement of the interests of his friends and neighbors, and being a large landed proprietor as well, has the additional incentive of private interest to subserve. His suggestions, therefore, are eminently worthy of note and will unquestionably prove of great assistance to the deliberations of the committee. We regret that our limited space prevents us from publishing the pamphlet at length, as it is well worth the careful perusal of every one, to whom irrigation is a vital necessity. RESOLUTIONS OF THE CHICAGO CONVENTION. The Grangers' Convention, composed of delegates from all the North Western grain-growing States, passed during its session at Chicago, resolutions asking Congress to enact a law fixing maximum freight and passenger charges by railroads. They also protested against granting subsidies to private corporations of any kind; requested Congress to take measures to open water routes from the Mississippi to the ocean; and, declaring that the way to lessen the burdens of transportation is to do without transportation, urge upon the people to create and sustain home manufactures. GRAND JURY SYSTEM. All amendments to the Constitution regulations are being agitated, preparatory bringing them before the next meet for their action. A change is in the time, at which the Legislature shall meet; it is also proposed to Judiciary at the general election, shorter terms. These changes may special to the finances of the State not of vital importance. There is at evil, however, in our system ojurisprudence, about which is said, and which in its workings only needlessly expensive to the course, but susceptible of great injury community, as well as to the inditrial. This evil is the present grand system. Grand jury is in reality a number of using magistrates, temporarily qualifect, and selected at random, regardall personal qualifications, either or educational. It forms an interlink between the Justice of the land and the Criminal Court, possessing literary authority than the magistrate, though powerless to punish crime, shield the criminal; allowing the final accused to operate privately as members, it excludes from its seasons, that most potent of all factors—public sentiment; it wastes no of the legal adviser of the county; adveniences, and oftentimes seriously men of business by occupying their to the detriment of their private rights; and it imposes a heavy tax upon any owners without any good, resultfrom to the State. The system is rotten and corrupt in extreme, is acknowledged by all, who well informed as to its workings. of the Eastern States have already CLEANINGS. The disbursements of the U.S. Treasury during October were $14,832,865. The State of New York has gone Democratic by 10,000 majority.

The Reformers claim Wisconsin by 10,000 majority. The Republicans concede 5,000. Minnesota gives Davis, Republican candidate for Governor 8,000 majority. The Farmers candidate for State Treasurer is probably elected. In Maryland the Democrat's elect the entire ticket by 14,000 majority. In Kansas the Democratic majorities are not given. The receipts of the Atlantic cables have largely increased since the begining of the financial panic. The average receipts are now $27,000 daily.

The Pacific Mail steamer Ariel, running between Yokohama and Hakodato, was wrecked, and is a total loss. The passengers and crew were saved. A special from Petersburg, Va., states that while about 300 colored men were marching in procession on last Monday they threw stones at houses, smashing windows and injuring citizens. The excitement became so great at last, owing to these acts of violence, that white and colored companies were called out and kept under arms all night. Gov. Walker has approved the prompt action on the part of the military and citizens. A dispatch from Brunswick, Me., says: The freshet in the Androscoggin river still continues.

Monday is commencement day of the annual fair of the Southern District Agricultural Society. Preparations have been made on an extensive scale to render its programme interesting, as well as beneficial to the community. The show of traded stock, especially from Los Angeles county, will be remarkably fine, and the speed in which well known traders" from the upper country will enrol, promise much pleasure to the devotees of the race course. The high degree of excellence, which has been attained in the Atlantic States in raising of horses, cattle and stock or kinds, is due in a great measure, if not fully to the establishment of agricultural societies. Eastern farmers recognise these institutions as necessities, and therefore every endeavor to keep their annual settlements to the highest standard. That there has been a decided improvement in the District, since the foundation of the society, is patent to all. Every one, who not compelled by business engagements remain absent, should put in an appearance, and aid in person and in pocket to obtain an institution, tending to so much need. MISFORTUNES NEVER COME SINGLY. During the past week advices of another back to the rapid construction of the southern Trans-Continental Railway came hand. The Texas Pacific Construction company have gone to protest for an amount involving several hundred thousand dollars. A statement of their assets and liabilities shows a financially sound condition. Knowing however, that statements of that character invariably appear a better light on paper, than the reality, we can not destroy a foreboding that more patient waiting and more hope-deferred is store for the western terminus of the railway. We regret, for the sake of the San Diego, that this is the case; at the same time, it pleases us to think that our prosperity does not rest in the hands of an immense corporate monopoly, but lies within our own grasp and depends solely upon our own exertions.
