Southern California GEO. C. KNOX... EDITOR. SATURDAY... MAY 30, 1874 ANNOUNCEMENT. The Californian will appear next week enlarged and in an entirely new dress. The steady growth of the southern section of this county and the liberal patronage extended to the paper under the present management, require greater facilities, particularly in our newspaper department, than we have heretofore possessed. As it is, and will be at all times our aim to keep well up with these requirements on the part of our patrons, as they may from time to time arise, we have incurred in the present enlargement a heavy expense for new type and new machinery. We trust, therefore, that the kindly feeling, which has heretofore so generously rewarded our journalistic efforts, will grow with our growth, and prove largely instrumental in strengthening us in our efforts to develop the growth of our section by giving to the new Californian a larger and more widely-spread circulation. A QUERY AND A SUGGESTION. The Los Angeles Herald has been much interested lately in advocating the construction of the Los Angeles and Independence railroad—a road, which its projectors assert will monopolize the entire mining trade of the Cerro Gordo district and of all other districts that are in existence in the interior, or are likely to be created. In its issue of May 27th, immediately under an article, reporting the progress of this great convenience to the interior districts, appears another article, referring to the Southern Pacific railway. During a recent visit to city we were the recipient of a visit and inspect the work in process of erection by Mr. of that city, and which are ford irrigating facilities to tracts, now offered by him. As the question of irrigation much attention at the present county and as the chief o seemingly presents itself to the community, is the scar water, we propose to give modus operandi, whereby Mr. tends to fertilize the dry hills Beaudry Terrace. Mr. Beaudry has selected his works, and as the place expects to obtain his water nega, or tuie swamp, situatedern portion of Los Angeles cienega, and adjoining the rounding it, he has caused to a pit, or natural reservoir of dimensions: eighty feet in feet wide, and five feet deep voir can be materially encienga covers an area of no acres. or can be deepened, if subsequently found necessary bottom of the reservoir. over inch of its surface, can be seced water, which supplies it, boiling a stratum of coarse, loose mediately on the edge of this been erected a Hooker Steam working capacity has been monstrated to be 50,000 gallons per hour. The water of the voir will be raised perpente feet, and placed in a second for distribution. Let us apperprise the test of figures, what can be accomplished in irrigation. The lower reservoir will hold 160,000 gallons o were told by the engineer. The Los Angeles Herald has been much interested lately in advocating the construction of the Los Angeles and Independence railroad—a road, which its projectors assert will monopolize the entire mining trade of the Cerro Gordo district and of all other districts that are in existence in the interior, or are likely to be created. In its issue of May 27th, immediately under an article, reporting the progress of this great convenience to the interior districts, appears another article, referring to the Southern Pacific railway. The gist of this latter article appears to be that it is very necessary for the pecuniary advantage of the Southern Pacific that the gap between Bakersfield and San Fernando should be closed, or to quote its words, to complete "the Southern Pacific railroad from Bakersfield, the present terminus in the San Joaquin valley, to San Fernando, twenty-four miles distant." (We have heretofore been under the impression that the distance between these two points was twenty-four miles "and a bittock") To come to our point, however, the Herald editorially asserts that "we may estimate that the Inyo county freight and the bullion of the Cerro Gordo and other mines will all leave and reach San Francisco by the Southern Pacific." We have been thoroughly convinced by the Los Angeles Press that the interior districts must do all their business over the Independence road via Los Angeles, Wilmington, and steamer to San Francisco, but after reading the above, we are adrift again. We can only reluctantly abandon the ocean route and map out the line of trade and travel from Independence thusly; from that place via Cajon Pass and San Bernardino to Los Angeles, thence back over the Southern Pacific to the neighborhood of Independence, and thence to San Francisco. On one point, however, we are still in the dark: Is the Los Angeles and Independence railroad to be constructed for the purpose of transporting the "Cerro Gordo and other mines" bullion, or to distribute it? If the latter should be the case we would suggest that the road be brought down the Santa Ana River to Richland and Anaheim, and thence through the Brea canyon to Spadra. It is the best route, and besides quoting again the Herald, "a large amount of way travel and freight may be also added to the business of the road." DECORATION DAY. To day, throughout the length and breadth of the Federal Union, in all places where side by side the Confederate and the Federal soldier await the last roll-call, their devotion to what each believed the true cause will be commemorated alike by former friend and foe. In silence and with tear-bedimmed eyes the matrons and maidens of the nation will cover with a curtain of coarse, loose material on the edge of this been erected a Hooker Steam working capacity has been monstrated to be 50,000 gallons per hour. The water of the voir will be raised perpendicular, and placed in a second for distribution. Let us apperprise the test of figures, what can be accomplished in irrigation. The lower reservoir will hold 160,000 gallons of water told by the engineers that this reservoir, after being emptied of its contents, will hours, or in other words than 13,000 gallons of water will the steam pump actually have which is accredited to it, then be emptied in four hours. This estimated capacity two however, and say that it will gallons an hour; even then the reservoir in six hours. At a glance, therefore, that four hours 317,334 gallons are placed in the upper reservoir now arises what can be daily quantity of water. Experiments in the East Engineers assert that one water passing through a given second, will keep thorough eighty acres of land; on where irrigation is not thorough estimate that the same body above will irrigate two hundred lands. Accepting the English more accurate and therefore knowing that in each hour it will require to empile of the capacity, given above of 2751-100 cubic feet of water given orifice for each second find that the reservoir, for Beaudry receives his water keep in thorough irrigation land. Admitting that filtration this water is wasted daily orientation and other destroying still remains water sufficient cultivate 1,870 acres of land. There can not exist the sea in the mind of every intellect but what there is a supply of section, amply sufficient to a acre of available land. In however, it is indispensably every means, which Nature be utilized. Mr. Beaudry has that the cienegas, which can almost every portion of this which have heretofore been out notice, contain large amounts of water; he will demonstrate their availability reservoirs. A lesson can be from an investigation of these courses, constructed by them. To prevent the absorption DECORATION DAY. To day, throughout the length and breadth of the Federal Union, in all places where side by side the Confederate and the Federal soldier await the last roll-call, their devotion to what each believed the true cause will be commemorated alike by former friend and foe. In silence and with tear-bedimmed eyes the matrons and maidens of the nation will cover with flowers the graves of the fallen soldier, and with wistful yearnings to the nameless and unknown resting-place of their own loved dead, each will in womanly sympathy breathe a prayer for her darling beside the grave, dear to some far-distant mother. It is but a little thing in itself—this covering a soldier's grave with flowers; but in its significance and in its effect it does more to heal the breach, created by civil war, than all the eloquence and wisdom of the North or South or East or West. We see that some of the States have made Decoration Day a legal holiday; their example should be followed by all, for more sacred than the birth of the nation, dearer than the birth-day of the Father of his Country should be held that day on which in the presence of Death the nation gave to the waters of Lethe the imaginary line which divided the North from the South. How often is the anecdote of the bull and the ox, with which all children who have studied Webster's spelling book are familiar, practically illustrated. Brooks and Baxter, who have been fighting and shedding blood over the spoils in Arkansas, are members and officers of the same Methodist Church. The Alcalde in Sinaloa who recently burnt a batch of witches, and the priests and people who murdered an American missionary a few weeks ago, are communicants and ministers in the Catholic Church. Our sensibilities are much shocked at the horrible action of these poor priest-vidden devils of Mexicans, and we shudder at their barbarity. But except from a few Southern towns who dislike carpet-haggers, no out-cry is made against Brooks and Baxter. Who are the harriers? It would be well for themselves in regard to this School Law, which goes into 1st day of next July. Unions every child between 17 and seventeen years must unless a valid excuse can be its absence. Bodily infirmity or its attendance at some and incapacity of the parent their families without any child are the only excuses law. For the fit: violation must a fine of twenty-dollars paid by any magistrate case may be brought; if offense the fine is placed at During a recent visit to Los Angeles we were the recipient of an invitation visit and inspect the works, which are process of erection by Mr. P. Beaudry that city, and which are intended to afford irrigating facilities to the homestead acts, now offered by him to the public, the question of irrigation is attracting such attention at the present time in this county and as the chief obstacle, which seemingly presents itself to the growlers of the community, is the scarce supply of water, we propose to give in detail the hydus operandi, whereby Mr. Beaudry intends to fertilize the dry hillsides of the Beaudry Terrace. Mr. Beaudry has selected as the site for works, and as the place from which he expects to obtain his water supply, a cienna, or tuite swamp, situated in the north-eastern portion of Los Angeles city. In this cienna, and adjoining the firm land surrounding it, he has caused to be excavated it, or natural reservoir of the following dimensions: eighty feet in length, fifty feet wide, and five feet deep. This reservoir can be materially enlarged, as the cienna covers an area of more than two acres, or can be deepened, if it should be consequently found necessary. At the bottom of the reservoir, over every square inch of its surface, can be seen the entering water, which supplies it, boiling up through stratum of coarse, loose gravel. Immediately on the edge of this reservoir has been erected a Hooker Steam Pump, whose working capacity has been practically demonstrated to be 50,000 gallons of water per hour. The water of the lower reservoir will be raised perpendicularly 240 feet, and placed in a second reservoir, ready distribution. Let us apply to this enterprise the test of figures, and thus see that can be accomplished in the way of irrigation. The lower reservoir, when full, hold 160,000 gallons of water. We are told by the engineer of the works GLANINGS. Strong efforts are being made to establish a Kindergarten in Santa Barbara. Don Carlos has revoked the banishment of the cure of Santa Cruz, and recalled him to Spain. Most of the local elections in Indiana this week have resulted in favor of the liquor sellers. The Boston Association of Universalists has adopted a series of resolutions in favor of prohibiting the liquor traffic. The steamer, Idaho, from Liverpool to New York, wont ashore on Fire Island. No lives lost. It is again rumored that Richardson will soon withdraw from the Treasury Department. It is believed that Delano will succeed him. The Ministerial troubles in Italy are settled. The King refusing to accept the Ministers resignation they concluded to remain in office. The Committee on Banking and Currency are still pursuing their investigation relative to the printing of Treasury notes. The local option campaign at Oakland is very exciting. The election takes place today. The women crusaders of San Francisco are taking an active part. On Littrell's motion his bill for the benefit of settlers along the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad was referred to the Committee on Public Lands. Auditor Wheeler, Chief-Justice McClure and several other Judges have been impeached in Arkansas for taking part in the late insurrection. Col. Boudinot made an argument before the House Committee on Territories in favor of the bill now before that committee to form a new Local Market Report.

The proposition to build a tunnel under the Straits of Dover, and thus connect England and France by railway, seems to be really under way. A report has been made in reference to its feasibility. The French authorities will subscribe two hundred thousand dollars towards the construction of the tunnel, while an English railway offers to advance as much if a concession in its favor is made. Senor Castillo, Alcalde of Jacobo, State of Sinaloa reports officially that a man and wife have been burned alive there for sorcery.
