Southern Californian GEO. C. KNOX... EDITOR. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1873. L. P. FISHER, 20 and 21 New Merchants' Exchange, in our authorized Agent in San Francisco THE RAIN. Before the rain of last week, the countenances of our sheep men had visibly commenced to lengthen. The number of sheep feeding in this portion of the county, have during the past eighteen months largely increased, partly from natural causes and partly by the return of flocks which had been driven southwards into Lower California and the Colorado river country during the dry season of 1871. As a consequence of this increase, the quantity of feed was insufficient to sustain them, and serious fears were felt that much inconvenience and loss would result from the large numbers, occupying our pasture lands. However, the rain of the past week, with the subsequent cloudy weather, which has continued to the present time has started the grass. With the feed thus produced, stock men can do well until the advent of the rainy season proper. Our agriculturists have also experienced the beneficial effects of the rain. The ground has been sufficiently moistened to admit of plowing. All, therefore, are hard at work preparing the grounds for winter sowing. With grain in the ground before the commencement of the rains, there is every reason to anticipate a most plentiful harvest in 1874. The great difficulty heretofore has been that the farmer has not sown until Spring. Experience has taught him to pursue a different course, and in the future the bulk of our cereal crop will receive the full benefit of the wet weather of December and January. REQUIRING A REMEDY. A great obstacle to the progress of education. As is customary in all citations, the telegraphic journals are filled with most contradictory nature; ing that war is inevitable available means is being government to place the new trim, the next day that we have ceased and that the submitted to arbitration.

Should under the leadership of With grain in the ground before the commencement of the rains, there is every reason to anticipate a most plentiful harvest in 1874. The great difficulty heretofore has been that the farmer has not sown until Spring. Experience has taught him to pursue a different course, and in the future the bulk of our cereal crop will receive the full benefit of the wet weather of December and January. REQUIRING A REMEDY. A great obstacle to the progress of education in the poorer counties of California arises from the inadequacy of their taxable property to produce a revenue, sufficiently large to school the children living within their limits. In the rich northern counties, wherein is contained the bulk of the wealth of the State,ample provision can be made with a slight taxation to continue school sessions during the entire year. In counties however where the population though large,is of the poorer classes, public schools languish for a want of funds. Even in the subdivision of counties, this evil often appears. Take this county for an instance. The school census of Los Angeles city shows about two thousand children within its limits,a number not in proportion with its total population,and much greater than actually appears upon the records of the different schools. The school tax belonging to that district is ample to keep the requisite number of teachers employed for the entire ten months. In the Anaheim districthowever,where the actual attendance more nearly approaches the figures of the census,the school fund falls short. The reason for this is apparent at a glance. It is the unequal distribution of property and population. The fault lies,not with the officers,to whom is delegated the administration of school matters,but with the legislative enactments,which compel them to a seeming partiality. In Louisiana,where the wealthy parishes,by reason of the large landed estate of their citizens,are thinly settled,and where the "pine hill" parishes,filled with children,are too poor to afford even the semblance of education,the school fund is made a State tax. It is assessed on the whole taxable property of the State,and is distributed in the different parishes,in accordance with the number of children living therein.In this manner educational advantages are offered alike to all,and no complaint can possibly arise regarding an unequal apportionment of the school fund. It is admitted by all,who have considered the subject,that in its enactments regarding the raising and distribution of school funds,California is defective. We trust that Mr.Bolander,in calling the attention of the Legislature to the importance of compelling children to attend the public schools,will also suggest the propriety of for the United States thirteenth officer is Gen.Grant bornness of disposition,wil not ignore the cost when preservation of the Union in the present case,supplied by public opinion,to overvacillating counsels,and manner as to preserve in the honor of his people.

CONTEMPLATED SURVEYS. The boundary line between "Las Bolsas" and "Santa Ana" ranchos will be surveyed during the early part of next month, and permanent corners will be established. This will be done by the Los Angeles Land Company, the owners of "Las Bolsas," in order to settle disputes, which have arisen regarding the line in question. The company contemplate re-running at an early day the northern lines of 'La Habra' and "San Juan Cajon," and the southern line of "Los Coyotes." An amicable arrangement has been effected with Michael Reese, the claimant of the disputed territory in the southern part of the latter rancho, and the position of the line definitely ascertained: This action on the part of the Land Company, taken in connection with their recent preliminary survey of an irrigating ditch, shows conclusively that they mean business, and that they will leave undone nothing on their part, tending to the rapid settlement and development of this section. Our great drawbacks heretofore have been want of water, and boundary lines. With these wants remedied affairs will undoubtedly brighten. THANKSGIVING Many, especially of this county have approved the name of Gov. Dow with the United States markable, and speaks well of moral and intellectual possessed by that gentle American journalist his bounden duty to professional rival, especially when the exception to as in the present case, advocates of a man or more positive of most undesirable him unqualified and fellow-townsmen by the worth, which course. With those in the State, who are cognizant conduct of Pacific coast of sentiment will bear THE "VIRGINIUS" COMPLICATIONS. As is customary in all times of great excitement, the telegraphic columns of daily journals are filled with dispatches of the most contradictory nature, one day asserting that war is inevitable and that every available means is being used by the government to place the nation in fighting trim, the next day that active preparations have ceased and that the affair will be submitted to arbitration. In short, a great mass of verbiage is used to express what could be easily done in a short sentence. The administration keeps its own counsel and the result of its deliberations will be known after the assemblage of Congress. It is definitely known, however, that a great outrage, not only to the flag of the United States, but to civilization as well, has been committed, that this outrage is generally condemned by the European Press, that Spain shows a disposition to uphold its officials in their action, and that popular indignation and popular sentiment in the United States demand an immediate and energetic action on the part of our Government, in order to receive satisfaction for the insult to our national honor, and more especially to avenge the irreparable wrong inflicted upon the lives of American citizens. It is unfortunate for Spain that this faux pas has happened at such an inopportune time. It is fortunate for the United States that its chief executive officer is Gen. Grant. The same stubbornness of disposition, which caused him to ignore the cost when battling for the preservation of the Union, will impel him in the present case, supported as he will be by public opinion, to over-rule weak and vacillating counsels, and to act in such a manner as to preserve in its full integrity the honor of his people. Out of the affair, however, will undoubtedly arise good. The independence of Cuba will be secured. Should the United States under the leadership of Gen. Grant deter- CLEANING.

LADIES, One and all, go to.....MRS. ELDRIDGE'S...And see..... for the United States that its chief executive officer is Gen. Grant. The same stubbornness of disposition, which caused him to ignore the cost when battling for the preservation of the Union, will impel him in the present case, supported as he will be by public opinion, to over-rule weak and vacillating counsels, and to act in such a manner as to preserve in its full integrity the honor of his people. Out of the affair, however, will undoubtedly arise good. The independence of Cuba will be secured. Should the United States under the leadership of Gen. Grant determine that the insult which it has received can only be atoned for by blood, the belligerent rights of the Cuban patriots will be at once recognized. Should the affair be submitted o arbitration, the Spanish home government can only excuse itself on the plea of impotency. In either event, Cuba will be freed from the barbarian misrule of an imbecile nation, and the last foothold of despotism and religious intoleration in North America will be destroyed. BUSINESS ENTERPRISE. The energy and enterprise, which surmounted every obstacle, and which succeeded in establishing at Los Angeles the first manufactory for woolen goods in Southern California, has succeeded in bringing to itself a large and ample reward. Meerss, Sacriste, Elliot & Co., our manufacturing pioneers, having established themselves firmly in the good opinion of the farming community in and around Los Angeles city, are desirous of deviating from the cramped policy, characteristic of the business men of Los Angeles, and, to do so, have opened in this place a branch depot for the sale, direct to consumers, of their manufactures. In thus doing, they exhibit in a marked degree commendable enterprise, and it is due to them that their efforts should, not only be appreciated, but sustained in a practical manner, by those whom they seek to benefit. Their styles of goods require only to be known to be eagerly purchased. We bespeak for them, therefore, through our editorial columns, the patronage of our Grange friends. They manufacture their entire stock of goods, and they believe that in order to acquire the custom and patronage of the farming community, they must content themselves with small profits. THANKSGIVING DAY. Many, especially of that class, whose pathway through life is devoid of the roses of prosperity, and whose toll-worn feet are wounded continually by the thorns of labor and physical hardship, fail to perceive a cause for the time-honored and traditional custom of setting apart one day in each year, as a day of national thanksgiving. Blessings brighten only as they recede. To those, who dwell but in gress for aid to the Texas Pacific and Northern Pacific railroads. A boiler explosion at Bancroft's bookstore, on Market street, San Francisco, caused $18,000 damage to Bancroft & Co. and $80,000 to Henry & Co.'s furniture store. The United States Cartridge Company will commence this week to run their works night and day. They have pressing orders for several million cartridges from the War Department. Attorney General Williams intends, it is said, to investigate Marshall Morris' action in ironing witnesses in the Sunrise case, and will remove him if sufficient cause is found. Two men, suspected of being Spanish spies, attempted to get on board the ironclad Dictator, at New London, Connecticut, last Friday evening, and upon the watchman stopping them, they fired at him. He returned their fire, and chased them away. The mills in the vicinity of Troy, N. Y., employing over 5,000 persons, resumed work on Monday. The mills at Poughkeepsie and Newburg have also resumed work, giving employment to 650 men. The Alta, says of Senstorial candidates: "Among the Republicans, Shafter would probably be most acceptable to to the Doily Vardens, but perhaps B. P. Avery would suit them." Hon. Richard C. McCormick, delegate from Arizona, was married last Tuesday evening to Miss Elizabeth Thurman, at the residence of the latter in Washington. The wedding was attended by President Grant and several members of the Cabinet, all the Senators now in Washington, and many other distinguished persons. The San Francisco Legislative delegation have received the draft of a bill to regulate the sale of liquor in this State. The principal provision requires that every dealer shall give bonds in the sum of $3,000 for all damages which may result in any manner from the sale of liquor to any person. A Western paper tells the story of a country woman who made her first attempt to get in the Court House yard through the patent back-action gate. She opened the gate, went through, as she supposed, and shut herself out on the same side seven times; then, ejaculating "Merciful sakes!" climbed over the fence. There is a woman residing in Solano county, says the Vallejo Chronicle who went into the chick. SPECIAL NOTICE.

Many, especially of that class, whose pathway through life is devoid of the roses of prosperity, and whose toll-worn feet are wounded continually by the thorns of labor and physical hardship, fail to perceive a cause for the time-honored and traditional custom of setting apart one day in each year, as a day of national thanksgiving. Blessings brighten only as they recede. To those, who dwell but in the present, and to whom the evidences of the past present a blank, the merciful bestowings of the Deity can never appear. Those, who walk with eyes always downcast upon the troubles that beset their path, ignore the good in magnifying the evil. To us, who live in a land peculiarly blessed in climate and resources, the fever decimated cities of the South and the idle laboring poor of the manufacturing States of the North and East should show most ample cause for thankfulness and gratitude to the Giver of all Good. AN EVIDENCE OF ABILITY. The unanimity, with which the Press of this county have approved our mention of the name of Gov. Downey in connection with the United States Senatorship, is remarkable, and speaks volumes in proof of the moral and intellectual qualifications possessed by that gentleman. As a rule, the American journalist considers it to be his bounden duty to differ with a professional rival, especially in the same town. When the exception to this rule is made, as in the present case, and all unite in the advocacy of a man or measure, it is proof positive of most undoubted excellence. The three newspapers of Los Angeles city indorse him unqualifiedly. His friends and fellow-townsmen know and appreciate the worth, which compells them to this course. With those in other portions of the State, who are cognizant of the usual conduct of Pacific coast journals, this unity of sentiment will bear due weight. A Western paper tells the story of a country woman who made her first attempt to get in the Court House yard through the patent back-action gate. She opened the gate, went through, as she supposed, and shut herself out on the same side seven times; then, ejaculating "Merciful sakes!" climbed over the fence. There is a woman residing in Solano county, says the Vallejo Chronicle, who went into the chicken business this last year and cleared from the business $900 during the year. This without interfering with the ordinary duties of her household. This shows that it is not indispensably necessary for a farmer to devote himself to wheat to make money. Fadover tells us that Mrs. Fadover says the Woman's Congress wouldn't touch back pay, but she wouldn't trust them on a question of back hair. They'd risk any amount of upbraiding in a case of that kind. The Duke of Cambridge chose for the Ashantee expedition as many as he could of the army officers who were in the habit of writing for newspapers. This is complimentary to their intelligence, but indicates that their continued existence is not regarded by the Duke as indispensable. A dispatch from Washington says: Two Catholic priests, American citizens, who were expelled from the City of Mexico at the point of the bayonet by Mexican authorities, have engaged a prominent lawyer here who has corresponded with the Secretary of State, demanding that reparation be forthwith accorded to his clients for the outrage by Mexican government. Steps will be taken to lay the matter before Congress at once. VERTISEMENTS. RENT. ADDITIONAL NOTICE. NOTICE. Ajon de Santa Ana Confirmed. Cifico Ontiveros. F. Hoffman, Deputy C. S. December, 1868.
