Anaheim Gazette SATURDAY ... FEBRUARY 20, 1875. SECRETARY BRISTOW does not favor the new revenue bill in its present shape, and wishes to include tea and coffee. It is believed a considerable amount can be realized from these two sources before the end of the year. If the House passes the bill without tea and coffee, it is thought they will be added by the Senate Finance Committee. MR. BERGH, the able prosecutor of the humane object of preventing cruelty to animals, has introduced into the New York Legislature a bill for the "prevention of cruelty to children." His bill meets with considerable objection, but if successful, will no doubt do much to ameliorate the condition of a class needing the protection of the law. The rumor again comes from Berlin that Prince Bismarck contemplates retiring to private life soon after his sixtieth birthday, which occurs on April 1st. This action will, it is said, be taken on the advice of his physicians, who urge a cessation of political activity. We doubt whether the danger of physical prostration will induce a veteran like Von Bismarck to forego the excitement and charms of a life of political intrigue. TIPPERARY County, Ireland, has sent John Mitchell, the convict and rebel, to represent it in the English House of Commons. But the aristocratic members of that body strenuously object to having men of that stamp for their associates, and they have adopted a resolution asking for the proof of his conviction for felony in 1848, and Disraeli gave notice that he THE GENERAL OUTLOOK—A WINTER GARDEN. The prospect for an abundant harvest in the southern portion of Los Angeles County, is better than it has been for the last five years. All the volunteer grain is looking finely; and the grain that was sown before the January rains has such a start, that a full crop is assured. The number of acres in small grain is about one-fourth more than last year; and it is expected that the yield will be at least one-fourth more per acre, which will leave us a surplus for export of about twenty thousand tons, (principally barley and rye). From careful estimates, it has been ascertained that about four thousand acres of corn will be planted in this portion of the county, this Spring; which, at an average yield, will produce two hundred and fifty thousand bushels, of which two-thirds will be surplus. When it is considered that corn from this section always brings the best price in the San Francisco market, the prospects for our farmers are highly encouraging. Another month or two will see a vast influx of people from the Eastern and North-western States. The country will then wear its most promising aspect; and, unable to resist the winning influences of our climate and scenery, and the tempting productivity of our soil, they will settle among us, adding to our wealth, and by their influence and example bringing additional population to build up the country. A glorious country is this we live in! A beautiful, fertile, rich country is this! Ho! ye men of Maine. Ho! ye denizens of Missouri. Can you in the wildest flights of your imagination picture us as we are? As you tread gingerly over the ice on your streets, or wrap your furs around you to protect you from the biting blast, John M.

Don Fernandez member of the city died at his Monday night old, and passed viciousity of the born and died our esteemed veda.—Express TIPPERARY County, Ireland, has sent John Mitchell, the convict and rebel, to represent it in the English House of Commons. But the aristocratic members of that body strenuously object to having men of that stamp for their associates, and they have adopted a resolution asking for the proof of his conviction for felony in 1848, and Disraeli gave notice that he would move a resolution declaring Mitchell's election illegal. An effort will be made in Nevada to obtain an appropriation of $20,000 to enable the State to present a respectable showing at the Centennial. They intend making a collection of silver ores and other mineral products from every section of the State, which shall be classified, catalogued, and the catalogue printed in the English, French, German and Spanish languages. It is also proposed to put up a quartz mill at the Centennial, and illustrate the process of crushing ores. Colorado has set apart $50,000 to be used for a similar purpose in behalf of that Territory. The reciprocy treaty with the Hawaiian Kingdom provides that certain articles, including brown sugar, molasses syrup, rice, castor oil, and vegetables, dried and undried, grown in the Sandwich Islands, may be imported into the United States free of duty. And in consideration the Hawaiian Government shall admit beef and pork, grain, flour, lumber, petroleum, salt, soap, manufactures of wool, cotton, wood and iron. No export duty is to be levied by either Government on the articles which the other admits without tariff. The large prices paid for land at the Centinela auction sale has given great encouragement to the managers of the Artesia colony. They claim that their tract is as good as the Centinela; and besides it has been practically proved that on every part of it artesian water can be had in abundance. The sale will commence on next Tuesday, and to-day an excursion train will be run, so that intending purchasers can thoroughly examine the grounds. It is said that the managers have nearly completed arrangements for the purchase of another fine body of land, which they will dispose of in a similar manner. The usual verdict of "Nobody to blame" has not been given this time. A glorious country is this we live in! A beautiful, fertile, rich country is this! Ho! ye men of Maine. Ho! ye denizens of Missouri. Can you in the wildest flights of your imagination picture us as we are? As you tread gingerly over the ice on your streets, or wrap your furs around you to protect you from the biting blast, can you in fancy accompany us to yonder garden. We will gather a boquet for you. For a centre piece we will take this beautiful white lily, and surround it with those four varieties of tube roses. We add to it those variegated Verbenas, Jelly Flowers, Mignonnette, Pinks, Japanese Myrtle, Dianthas, Geraniums, Marigolds and Sweet Pea. The boquet is already large, so we will not disturb those other flowers, of every hue, which are growing in such profusion around us, but with your permission we will return to the arbor, and under its shade partake of a dish of those luscious strawberries you so admired during your walk in the garden, and enjoy the delights of the succulent orange you have just plucked from the tree. This is no fancy picture; it is a reality. All the flowers mentioned, and many other varieties, are blooming in the open air to-day. The orange-trees are laden with their golden fruit, and strawberries are becoming plentiful. No better place in the wide world can be found for the industrious, energetic man than Southern California. Industrious he must be; for it takes labor—hard labor and patience to create a counterpart of the beautiful homes with which this valley abounds. The Los Angeles Herald has the following to say about climate, which makes a fitting conclusion to this article: "Our Eastern exchanges report very cold weather this Winter throughout the Northeastern and Northwestern States. The mercury seems to have no use for the tube above zero, and rather prefers the region about twenty degrees below that point than the point itself. It is always chilly when the thermometer acts in this way, and the bare reading of the weather reports in the papers from the localities named, is suggestive of frosty beards, blue noses and frozen toes. To people here these reports sound strangely. There the ground is frozen—here it is covered with grass and flowers; there the trees are leafless—here the roses are in bloom; there it is frost and snow and mud—here it is mild and warm and the sun is shining us, adding to our wealth, and by their influence and example bringing additional population to build up the country. A glorious country is this we live in! A beautiful, fertile, rich country is this! Ho! ye men of Maine. Ho! ye denizens of Missouri. Can you in the wildest flights of your imagination picture us as we are?

The Naval Court of Inquiry, convened at Hongkong, to inquire into the causes which led to the burning of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company's steamer, Japan, have rendered their decision after hearing a mass of testimony. They find that the fire was caused by the spontaneous combustion of the coal taken on board at Yokohama, the coal being wet when stowed away in the bunker. They exonerate Captain Warsaw and all the officers except the Chief Engineer, whom they find to have been guilty of gross neglect in failing to make the customary inspection of the coal after it was stowed away. The New Jerseyman who writes editorials for the Los Angeles Mirror, was in Anaheim the other day, and he says some very pretty things about our town. He found many things to admire, and among them our church, into which edifice he strolled one Sabbath evening. The text that evening was from the Book of Joshua, relative to the sin of Achan, and the very able manner in which the subject was handled gave him great delight. To use his own words, "On the whole we were particularly edified, and could not help but admire the pluck of the reverend gentleman in thus attacking the enemy in his stronghold." The "enemy" alluded to is whisky. It will not help the cause, which the Mirror so strongly advocates, to deal in abuse and misrepresentation, and in penning the sentence quoted above he was guilty of both. AROUND THE COUNTY. Over one thousand boxes of oranges were shipped from Los Angeles to San Francisco by the Mohongo. Jose D. Morrillo has been arrested in Los Angeles for horse-stealing. Maximo Davis is in quod for the same offence. The steamer Gypsy discharges its cargo at the wharf at Wilmington. It finds no difficulty in crossing the bar and entering the harbor. The great Centinela land sale was largely attended, and the prices realized filled the hearts of the stockholders with joy. The prices paid for land ranged from $21 to $62 per acre. A cow belonging to Mr. Brown, who has a wood ranch six miles from San Fernando, about two weeks ago gave birth to a bull calf, and four days afterwards to a fine heifer. Col. Norman C. Jones has sold his property known as Inverness, to Mr. A. Weill for $30,000, and has purchased the unsold portion of the rancho Azusa del Duarte, comprising 4,867 acres. The citizens of Wilmington have purchased the hook and ladder truck, formerly used in Los Angeles. The latter place is now supplied with a Babcock truck and extinguishers. The Los Angeles and Independence Railroad Company have closed a contract with parties to grade the bed of the road from Truxton to within four miles of Los Angeles. John M. Warner, late Steward of Los Angeles Temple No. 1, Janissaries of Light, has been found guilty of embezzlement, by a committee appointed to examine into charges against him. From present appearances, it may safely be predicted that the new Los Angeles post office will be a model of convenience and elegance. It is expected that it will be ready for occupation about the first of March.—Star. Don Fernando Sepulveda, an aged member of this old Los Angeles family, died at his ranch on the Verdugo, Monday night.

Chavez, the lieutenant of Vasquez, is known to have been in the northern part of San Luis Obispo county a few days since. He was in company with seven or eight half breeds. The whole party were armed with revolvers, but carried no guns. In the early part of November an attempt was made to capture Chavla in the same locality, but he succeeded in evading the officers, and has been lurking in the same locality most of the time since. Some uneasiness is felt by those acquainted with his movements. Grave apprehensions exist as to his future intentions. For the benefit of whom it may concern, H. N. Bolander, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, publishes the following: "Learning that efforts are being made to introduce immediately some of the new books recently adopted by the State Board of Education, I hereby notify all parties interested that none of the new books can be used before June 1st, 1875; and any district using them previous to that date will lose its apportionment of school money.

Will there find a combination of soil, climate and water well adapted to their rapid growth. These lands are not entirely free from frosts, but the gold is not severe enough to injure the growth of semi-tropical fruit trees, and rarely does any damage except to the most tender vegetation. Water. The great desideration of Southern California, without which the richest land is converted into a desert and with it the desert is converted into a garden, is here easily obtained in great abundance. Surface water is found at a depth of from ten to fifteen feet, and flowing artesian wells can be readily and SUBELY obtained at a depth of from one hundred and thirty to two hundred feet. There are many flowing wells in the immediate vicinity, and within the artesian belt no failure to get flowing water has ever occurred. The town of Artesia Has been laid out on the township line three miles south and three-fourths of a mile west of Norwalk Station. A quarter section of land is included within the town plat. It is the intention to make this town the center of one of the richest farming communities in Los Angeles county. A Fine School House Will be erected soon by the Company, on a two-acre town lot donated for that purpose. Ten per cent. of the receipts from the sale of town lots will be devoted to the erection of a School House, and the improvement of the School property, and two and a half percent of the receipts from the sale of outside lands at the first auction sale will be devoted to the same purpose. These sums will be paid from the first payments made on lands. Arrangements are now being made for the establishment of a Methodist Episcopal Church and the erection of a house of worship. A lot will be given to any Church or Society that will erect thereon a building for public use. Public Sale. Those lands will be offered at Public Auction on TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.
