Southern California MR. C. KNOX...EDITOR. SATURDAY...AUGUST 8, 1874 There is in the Treasury Department at Washington an old in-subordinate, well known in the Green-back states for his eccentric signature, and better known in the Capital for obstinacy and self-will. This old gentleman has informed Gen. Bristow, Secretary of the Treasury, that unless he is allowed to manage the affairs of his branch of the department in his own style he will tender his resignation. The Secretary has politely intimated that his resignation will be promptly accepted. Old Obstinacy considers this an unreasonable manner, in which to accede to his request, and as yet retains his official pen. Doctor Jitzki has communicated to the Imperial Society of Wilna, Russia, an article in which he intimates that he has discovered an antidote for hydrophobia. His plan is for any person, who has been bitten by a mad dog, to get himself immediately bitten by a viper, the antagonism between the virus of the animal and the reptile securing the patient from the ill effects of either bite. The learned doctor bases his theory upon the fact that a dog, who employed his leisure hours in annihilating vipers, was one day bitten without ill effect by a rabid dog, whose bite had given hydrophobia to several cattle and another dog. We are pleased to be able to state that the difficulties, which have for some time past retarded the prosecution of the building of the Bolsa Chica Wharf, have been satisfactorily overcome, and that the first steps towards its construction have been successfully completed. The Board have entered into a comparison between the assessed valuations of common and graded sheep illustrates better than any other method the importance of improving the quality of stock sheep. Common sheep, assessed at $1 75 per head, are with difficulty disposed of at prices ranging from $1 25 to $1 75 per head, and even at these low rates the general experience has been that they are an unremunerative property; while on the other hand graded sheep, whose taxed valuation is but fifty cents more per head, are readily sold at a paying figure. The custom of older and more experienced sheep-raisers in annually investing large amounts in thorough-bred rams furnishes additional proof that to make a pecuniary success of this industry the stock must be constantly improved. Our attention has been directed to this subject at the present time by an inspection of a thorough-bred ram, purchased a few days ago by Mr. J. E. Bacon, of San Juan Capistrano, from J. H. Kirkpatrick, a Vermont sheep-man, who has lately located at Los Angeles. Mr. Bacon's old stock of sheep ranks among the best in the country. They have not, however, reached his standard of excellence, although for the past six years he has continually graded them up by the best thorough-bred rams. It was only a few weeks ago that he purchased from the same gentleman six Spanish Merinoes, and he has now made an additional purchase of a buck, which is favorably and well-known in its native Vermont as a most superior animal. Although we are pleased to chronicle these evidences of praise-worthy enterprise upon the part of our citizens, still it must be acknowledged that the greater commendation should be awarded to those gentlemen, who like Mr. Kirkpatrick. ED. CALIFORNUM turned from over a few o'er portions of your permission few observations that seems to many of you to. The first We are pleased to be able to state that the difficulties, which have for some time past retarded the prosecution of the building of the Bolsa Chica Wharf, have been satisfactorily overcome, and that the first steps towards its construction have been successfully completed. The Board have entered into a contract with Mr. Salisbury of Santa Barbara, well known as the constructor of several wharves in Santa Barbara County, to perform the work. Operations will be commenced immediately upon the arrival of the material, which will be sometime during the latter part of September, and Mr. Salisbury promises to perform his part of the contract by the first day of next December. Over six hundred shares of stock have been taken, requiring an assessment of less than fifty per cent of the subscribed stock to perform the Company's part of the contract. By its charter the Independence Railway is allowed as a maximum charge ten cents per mile for each ton of freight. If this road terminates at the Bolsa Chica Wharf, it can cost San Bernardino shippers, only $5.50 per ton for transportation and fifty cents for wharf charges, making a total of $6.00 per ton. Each ton of freight, leaving or arriving at San Bernardino at the present time, costs $16.00 per ton, and under the most advantageous circumstances the rates via Wilmington, could be reduced only to $8.10 per ton. Bolsa Chica Wharf, considered as the terminus of the Independence railway, possesses therefore in its favor, besides its physical advantages, the shorter distance—an item of great importance to the future patrons of the road. The assessment roll of Los Angeles county for 1874, shows that the total amount of taxable property was valued at $12,848,279. The total number of acres of land is 1,173,327,of which only 25,748 acres are classed as irrigable, moist vineyard and orchard lands. The number of sheep and lambs, pastured in the county, is represented to be 473,963 sheep, and 10,015 lambs. The value of lands is estimated to be $3,960,400,or an average of a fraction more than three dollars per acre, while sheep stock is valued at $1,065,893. The difference between these two valuations is best illustrated how rams. It was only a few weeks ago that he purchased from the same gentleman six Spanish Merinoes, and he has now made an additional purchase of a buck, which is favorably and well-known in its native Vermont as a most superior animal. Although we are pleased to chronicle these evidences of praise-worthy enterprise upon the part of our citizens, still it must be acknowledged that the greater commendation should be awarded to those gentlemen, who like Mr. Kirkpatrick incur the hazards of importation. This gentleman has completed his arrangements to keep the market supplied with rams from the purest Vermont breeds and has permanently established himself at the City of Los Angeles. Having sold to Messrs. Wilson, Bacon and others his first venture, he is now en route to the East for the purpose of personally superintending the transportation of a second importation. WESTMINSTER. WESTMINSTER Aug. 3d. 1874. ED. CALIFORNIAN.—But few events have occurred here lately which are worthy of mention. Living, as we do, away from the main traveled roads of the County, and all desiring to be quiet orderly citizens, and having no elements among us to exeite discord or incite brawls and misdemeanors, it must be admitted that a history of our rise and progress will be rather monotonous. I perceive it has become fashionable to chronicle the departure of parties for the "Hot Springs" and "the Beach." If such events are interesting, I could supply quite a list, as hardly a week passes but some party leave their pleasant homes to seek variety and discomfort by camping either at the Hot Springs or Laguna Caifon. Quite a party are now at the Caifon, hunting and fishing. Among the party are Mesdames McCoy and Bowley, Misses McCoy, Marquis and Jaquette, Messrs. Strong, Jaquette and Poor, and last but not least Dr. McCoy. The doctor has returned once since the party left. He reports that all seem to be enjoying themselves. The gentlemen are employed a good portion of the time carrying water from the spring which is over half a mile from camp. He also says that wood was rather scarce. But the fish are the great source of amusement and entertainment. One of the party caught one other day. There was great excitement when it became known that a large fish was hooked,so the whole company gathered around to assist in bringing it to land. After The total number of acres of land is 1,173,327,of which only 25,748 acres are classed as irrigable, moist vineyard and orchard lands. The number of sheep and lambs, pastured in the county, is represented to be 473,963 sheep, and 10,015 lambs. The value of lands is estimated to be $8,960,400,or an average of a fraction more than three dollars per acre, while sheep stock is valued at $1,065,893. The difference between these two valuations can best be illustrated, however, by calling attention to the fact that there is not an acre of land in the county, belonging to private individuals, which can be purchased for three dollars an acre, while the bulk of sheep stock, or those classed as common sheep, numbering over 300,000, and valued at $175 per head, will readily be disposed of by their owners at prices, never exceeding $2 per head. The political horizon at present appears overcast with storm-clouds, which forebode even greater disaster than arrows from the discussion of the slavery question,and which culminated in the late contest between the Northern and Southern sections of the Republic. From an Eastern standpoint, Free Trade, Repudiation, Inflation, and Legislative control of railways, advocated by the Western States of the Union, threaten financial ruin to the great money centres of the Atlantic se-board,and to the manufacturing interests of New England; whilst the triumph of their opposites,which, as essential to the preservation of the commercial national honor in foreign maris, constitute the rallying cry of Eastern political organizations of what ever complexion,give certain assurance to the Western mind of further business depression and increased poverty. The numerical strength of the West is now counterbalanced by the inclination of the Administration to the Eastern policy. Should the Western numbers succeed,however,In placing in the executive chair in 1876 an individual committed to their platform,it may mean a peaceful partition of the Great Republic,though precedent prognosticates internecine war. He reports that all seem to be enjoying themselves. The gentlemen are employed a good portion of the time carrying water from the spring which is over half a mile from camp. He also says that wood was rather scarce. But the fish are the great source of amusement and entertainment. One of the party caught one the other day. There was great excitement when it became known that a large fish was hooked;so the whole company gathered around to assist in bringing it to land. After much maneuvering,pulling,hauling and shouting of orders,the monster was brought to land,and carried to camp amid the tremendous joy of the assembled party. The scales were produced and the audience with bated breath awaited the announcement of the weight,which was received with exuberant applause and is recorded in their journal at four ounces,although some claim that it weighed half an ounce more. This is the only fish caught at the latest dates of dispatch. It is also reported that three quail had been killed. Think what a feast! Three quail for nine adults and four children! We can all feel that it was good to be there. We rejoice at their fortune. We who are doomed to sleep in our beds and inhale with the fresh morning air the odor of roses,mignonnette,hello-trope and geranium,whose sole vlands consist of bread and butter without sand,of corn,peas,beans potatoes,onions,turnips,tomatoes,and various kinds of fruits,we,(I say)are heartily glad at their abundant pleasures and sincerely hope that their search for variety and change will be amply rewarded. The prospects of our settlement are brightening. The early completion of the Wharf will do more to develop the country,south of Anaheim,than all the advertisements and notices it has ever received.The long ride from Wilmington through an unsettled and comparatively sterile country will be avoided;on the other hand the passengers will hardly leave the Wharf before they will pass through cultivated fields and young orchards and vineyards,and before arriving in Anaheim will pass over some of the best land in the county,as yet unsettled,但which is destined to become one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the world.The soil is rich and deep,and an abundance at $12,848,279.The total number of acres of land is 1,173,327.of which only 25,748 acres are classed as irrigable,molst vineyard and orchard lands.The number of sheep and lambs,pastured in the county,是 represented to be 473,963 sheep,and 10,015 lambs.The value of lands is estimated to be $8,960,400,或 an average of a fraction more than three dollars per acre,而 sheep stock is valued at $1,065,893.The difference between these two valuations can best be illustrated,However,bY calling attention to the fact that there is not an acre of land in the county,belonging to private individuals，which can be purchased for three dollars an acre,而the bulk of sheep stock，或 those classed as common sheep，numbering over 300,000,and valued at $175 per head，will readily be disposed of by their owners at prices，never exceeding $2 per head.

There is no doubt but that all semi-triple fruits will develop perfectly, and perhaps some of the tropical fruits. I am speaking of the lands, South and West of Mr. Jno. Hanna's place. A few years will produce a wondrous change in this country and the completion of the Wharf will hasten its development. We can look forward to an early completion of the railroad to Anaheim. We know that everything, which adds to her property, increases ours. If land and produce increase in value there, ours will also. Although with our wharf facilities we will not care so much for it, as we would have done, had the railroad been finished a year ago, still we will find it very convenient when we desire to visit the outlying villages of Downey City, San Fernando and Los Angeles. As to local items they are quite few and devoid of interest. Our fruit trees are bearing for the first time and although the crop is of course small the quality is excellent. Notwithstanding all that has been said regarding the coldness of this place as compared with Anaheim, our fruits of the same varieties have ripened at the same time, perhaps the same day on which they matured in Anaheim. Our young vineyards are looking finely and will produce a quantity of grapes this year. The time has not come for us to assert that this is a first class fruit producing locality; it will require two years more time to settle the question. But I feel justified in saying that before that time one hundred thousand fruit trees will be planted within a radius of five miles from our school house. WAYSIDE NOTES. ED.

CALIFORNIAN.—Having just returned from a brief tour of inspection over a few of the many flourishing portions of this county I will with your permission give to the public a few observations, made on witnessing the promising prospects and prosperity that seems to be in the near future of many of the places, here alluded to. The first place we visited, (and in using the pronoun we, I wish it to be understood that our party consisted of four persons, three from Santa Barbara in addition to your correspondent), was Westminster Colony. What a surprise awaited us. Instead of the dreary, deserted, alkali desert that it seemed to be but a few years ago, we beheld nearly every acre of that large tract of land, comprising the colony, under the very best of cultivation. We conversed with a number of the land owners, some of whom had but recently made purchases, and others who had been there for two and three years, and they all seemed hopeful and jubilant at the prospects and promises of the grand future that is destined to be theirs at no distant day. Large, substantial and elegant dwellings are being erected on every farm, orange-orchards are being set out, vineyards are being started, and everywhere those evidences of thrift, enterprise and energy are manifest, which must and does characterize those who are to succeed. The next place that attracted our attention was Gospel Swamp. The luxuriant growth of corn here vividly recalled to my mind that passage of the Scriptures, wherein is depicted the terrors of a famine in Canaan and of the journey of Jacob's sons into Egypt to get corn. I was told that one hundred bushels of corn per acre was an average yield, whilst one hundred and fifty bushels had frequently been gathered. While there we visited an artesian well, probably the largest one in Los Angeles County, belonging to Mr. Gabriel Allen, one of the largest stock-raisers in Southern California. Water was obtained in this well at a depth of one hundred and seventy-five feet. The flow was not remarkable at first, but sufficient for the purposes for which the well was bored—to supply stock water; shortly after its completion the water seemed to burst forth afresh, and now a stream filling a seven inch pipe, flows up six inches above the top of the pipe. We understand that it is Mr. Allen's intention to convey this water through pipes into his residence. During our stay in the "Swamp" we attended the meeting of the "Gospel Swamp," Debating Club" at which the subject under discussion—resolved, that the no fence law shall be abolished—was handled in a most masterly manner, and decided in the negative. Thence our route lay through Santa Ana and Orange, both pleasant and growing villages, and contending in friendly rivalry, and about which we could say much, had we not already trespassed too largely BOLSA CHICA WHarf and Forwarding Co.
