First cabin passage to San Francisco has been reduced to $5, and freights to $2 per ton. —An old poet says that valour, and even virtue, when employed in an ill quarrel, assumes at once the foul vizor of vice. The El Monte war is a striking illustration of this tendency. To defend home and fireside is generally a virtue. In the present instance it was undoubtedly a crime. —We have not been able to obtain in time for insertion a report of the action taken by the Masters of the County Granges, assembled in Los Angeles yesterday. It is their desire to establish a house on the cooperative plan for the transaction of a general commission and mercantile business. —Again an inquiry comes, this time from a citizen of Iowa, regarding the resources and climate of Anabeim.

Emulating the example of Newman of El Monte, a valiant knight of the Crook determined to possess himself of a pasturage by means of his own strong right arm in the early part of the present week. He attacked one of the shepherds in the employ of Woods and Athearn, drew his shot-gun on him and ordered him off the Niguel rancho. This is a world of disappointment. The attempt was not a brilliant success. —The legal talent of the Anaheim Bar, latent, undeveloped and matured, found occasion yesterday to exercise its functions in Justice Clark’s Court. It appears that John Azbil, a farmer living near town, lost on Wednesday night two bay horses. On Thursday the stock was found in the possession of one Jose Lachiera, living in Upper Santa Ana, and not only in his possession but in his house. The how, why and wherefore of the matter was investigated by Judge Clark yesterday afternoon, who discharged the prisoner from custody, there being no evidence of guilty intent. RICHLAND AND ITS SURROUNDINGS. Its Appearance then and now—Business Houses—Mayward & Caney's Nursery—Its Water Privileges—Prices of Land. Whilst on a business trip during the past week, we had occasion to visit the village of Orange, better known by its former name of Richland. Our approach was made from the Rodriguez crossing of the Santa Ana river, and via the old stage road to San Juan Capistrano. As emerging from the willow-clad banks of the river, we beheld before us a vast plain, covered with cultivated fields and dotted with cozy farm houses with here and there patches of the dark green foliage, indicative of orange and lemon groves, we could not refrain from contrasting its appearance now and as it was but three short years ago. It seems but as yesterday when beyond the Eastern bank of the Santa Ana there met the eye nothing but a sterile waste, entirely devoid of habitation, and over which traditions of former years told of herds of cattle roaming, but which then presented an appearance seemingly worthless. It has not been entirely forgotten either how the ditch enterprise, inaugurated by Glassell and Chapman, which has resulted in so magically transforming the face of the country, was treated as a most Quixotic idea. Driving along through lanes enclosed on either side by cultivated fields and by young orchards with increased value of the lands and in the general enterprise and thrift, displayed by the settlers. Lands that two years ago were held at prices, ranging from $25 to $40, now meet with a ready sale at from $60 to $150, according to location. Its population is chiefly of the farming class, and judging from the appearance of every place, there is not one drone in the community. It is a good location for those, not afraid of work. We recommend it to those interested in securing a comfortable home in a healthy climate. Wool-Growers' Convention. The convention of the wool growers of Los Angeles county was held on last Thursday at the Court house in Los Angeles. Nearly all the wool growing portions of the county were represented by one or more delegates. The meeting being called to order by Mr. Narbonne of Wilmington, Mr. Oscar Macy of Los Angeles was chosen as permanent chairman, and Mr. Ross of Los Angeles as Secretary. Mr. McDonald stated that one of the objects of the meeting was to consider the establishment of a grading, packing and shipping warehouse at Wilmington. The Secretary read a letter from Mr. J. E. Perkins of San Francisco, in encouragement of the project, and giving many interesting items in regard to the method by which the wool growers are regular... herds of cattle roaming, but which then presented an appearance seemingly worthless. It has not been entirely forgotten either how the ditch enterprise, inaugurated by Glassell and Chapman, which has resulted in so magically transforming the face of the country, was treated as a most Quixotic idea. Driving along through lanes enclosed on either side by cultivated fields and by young orchards with every variety of fruit, we reached the residence of Capt. Glassell, transacted our business and found time for a more critical inspection of the many evidences of thrift and energy, which appeared on every side. As is well known the Chapman tract was laid out as an agricultural village with town lots in the centre and subdivisions gradually increasing in size as they are distant from the village proper. On Glassell street there are several business houses, amongst others the general merchandise establishment of Fisher Bros. who, we believe, were the pioneer merchants of Richland. Dr. Geo. H. Beach, who with his family has recently settled in the place, is building a large two-story edifice, the lower portion of which will be devoted to the transaction of a general merchandise business, carried on by the owner. The upper story, designated Orange Hall, is used by the Orange Grange No. 40, for their work. The lodge of Odd-Fellows, about to be established, will also be held in the Hall. Just above Dr. Beach's store is a ten-acre tract belonging to Capt. Glassell and planted with Languedoc Almond trees. Farther on are the nursery grounds of Hayward and Casey. The establishment of these gentlemen is only about a year old, but an inspection of their nursery speaks wonders for the fruit-bearing properties of Richland soil. Besides a great variety of orange, lime and peach trees, we noticed particularly their young apple trees, on grafted stocks. They are only one year old, and have already attained a height of seven feet. It is impossible, however, to tell of all that we saw, and it is equally as difficult to see all Angeles as Secretary. Mr. McDonald stated that one of the objects of the meeting was to consider the establishment of a grading, packing and shipping warehouse at Wilmington. The Secretary read a letter from Mr. J. E. Perkins of San Francisco, in encouragement of the project, and giving many interesting items in regard to the method by which the wool growers are regularly fleeced by the present method of shipping and disposing of their wool. Mr. McDonald stated that an arrangement could be made with Mr. Perkins to establish a warehouse in Wilmington to receive, grade and pack wools for shipment, and that a special agency would be established to sell all wools shipped by them; that half a million of dollars could be procured at the rate of 7 per cent per annum, and that they would advance money on all wools shipped through them at that rate; and that he wished a discussion among the members of the convention in regard to co-operating in the enterprise. A motion was made by Dr. Edgar of Los Angeles, to form an Association of wool growers of Los Angeles county, for the purpose of creating a home market for their wool, and considering all matters calculated to promote the welfare of the sheep-raising interest in this county. A committee was appointed consisting of Messrs. Ross, White, Garnier, Athearn, Lyon and Ward, to draw up by-laws, and report at the next meeting to be held in Los Angeles on the 29th instant. The committee will meet at the office of Mr. Ross in Los Angeles on the 24th instant. Mr. Ward exhibited some samples of Cotswold wool, remarkable for its quality and length of staple. A letter was read from Mr. Thomas E. Crosby of Conn., in regard to a chemical process invented by him for the cleansing of wool from the burrs and seed which is one of the most objectionable features of the wool of Southern California. It is proposed to employ this process at the shipping house if successful. There being no other business, preliminary to a permanent organization, the meeting then adjourned.

DEAVSEN, Proprietor about a year old, but an inspection of their nursery speaks wonders for the fruit-bearing properties of Richland soil. Besides a great variety of orange, lime and peach trees, we noticed particularly their young apple trees, on grafted stocks. They are only one year old, and have already attained a height of seven feet. It is impossible, however, to tell of all that we saw, and it is equally as difficult to see all that is to be seen in and around the village in one day. It is also useless to advise a visit to Richland. Its fame has already gone abroad, and is bringing to its population fresh accessions every day. Although the present supply of water is ample for the demand, the rapidly increasing growth of the place has created a doubt regarding the future. To prevent this evil a large reservoir has been constructed. It is situated in the mouth of a gorge, coming out of the foot-hills, and its contents are capable of being distributed over any portion of the tract. Other reservoirs are in course of construction, which, when completed, will prevent any scarcity of water in the future. The canal, which supplies the town with water, will be enlarged at an early date to nearly troble its present capacity. It is the intention of the directors of the company to construct two branch ditches from the main ditch at the Burruel hill, one branch being the present ditch, and the other making a perpendicular descent of between forty and fifty feet. Other evidences of the prosperity of the settlement are shown in the DIED. SCHENK.—January 14th, August Schenk, aged 48 years, 4 months and 4 days. The Art and Photographic Gallery of V.
