We also visited the County Jail and found the same clean, and the prisoners well cared for; but we respectfully suggest to the proper authorities that the present jail building is too small to answer the present and future exigencies of our city and county, and we would recommend that steps be taken to remedy the matter. We take pleasure in expressing our belief that the affairs of the county are well managed and that justice in the Courts of the county is honestly and purely administered. It has been our pleasure to respond to the sound words of your Honor's address to this Grand Jury—words that deserve to be engraved on the walls of every temple of justice in the land. You said the object and duty of Governments, of Courts, of Justice, and all of the forms and machinery of Government is to protect us in our lives, in our property and in our homes. This duty cannot be evaded, for if that function is abdicated by the people in the lawful and regularly constituted manner, then it will be assumed and vindicated by irregular methods. Those sentiments have served as a key note for action. We have sought to inquire impartially into the offenses that have been brought to our attention or that we could get knowledge of against the lives, or the property, or the homes of the people of Los Angeles county. As the result of our labors during the brief space we have been in session, we present these formal indictments, and in addition we would call attention to several other matters which, in our opinion, we should not pass over in silence, with the hope that the mere calling of public attention to them will be sufficient to cause their being remedied. Isk. We believe that it is a conceded and notorious fact that a majority of the Chinese women who come to this country, come for immoral purposes, and that those of our citizens who rent their houses to them or to those who harbor them, cannot evade the moral knowledge at least that their houses are occupied for disreputable purposes; whereby such owners render themselves obnoxious to the public good. We have been informed and believe that Chinese women inhabit the houses of a number of citizens of this city, and would recommend that the next Grand Jury inquire into the matter, and if not remedied before they meet to take such action as they may deem proper. 2d. The existence of the gas works in the heart of the city of Los Angeles, we think, is incontestibly obnoxious to the public health, and to some ex- Great Reduction LUMBER!! J. G.

We have been informed and believe that Chinese women inhabit the houses of a number of citizens of this city, and would recommend that the next Grand Jury inquire into the matter, and if not remedied before they meet to take such action as they may deem proper. 2d. The existence of the gas works in the heart of the city of Los Angeles, we think, is incontestibly obnoxious to the public health, and to some extent to the good name, fame and comfort of the people of the city of Los Angeles. We do not propose to discuss the question of who ought to assume the expense of removal. We merely call attention to a very disagreeable fact which forces itself on all who are compelled to go to that part of the city, and on hundreds if not thousands, who have come here from all parts of the civilized world for health or pleasure, and who, if sickly, soon become nauseated and disgusted and leave to proclaim far and wide that Los Angeles is a city of obnoxious smells. 3d. The storage of powder and nitroglycerine at the powder-house near the depot, ought to cease at once. The motive of the Railroad Company, to wit: the accommodation of the public, is no sufficient reason for incurring the risks of an explosion which, if it were to occur in that locality, would produce fearful results. 4th. We cannot forbear calling attention to a matter which seems unusual in a Grand Jury report, for which our motives may be impugned and for which we may be called ever sanctimonious; but we protest the evil we refer to is a grave one and a disgrace to any civilization. We refer to the appalling prevalence in our midst of blasphemy. By this we do not mean ordinary profanity or swearing (whores in the name of Deity is still used) but the irrelevant use of the name of the Supreme Being in the ordinary conversation of so many of our citizens—often thoughtlessly and as a habit, sometimes with rashly and not frequently in coarse and wild conversations. Accuse those men who indulge in this habit of being altruists, and they will revert it; use the names of their parents or of any one whom they request, or that of any great living or historical personage with the same irreverence and frequency, and they and society would be shocked and...

Mustone's ears forever be made to tingle in this community by being assailed by—not profanity, not vulgarity, not abusive words—for all these things are more or less questions of taste—but by the irreverent and constant use of the great and sacred name of the Feily by so many of the men one meets in the ordinary intercourse of life. With these plain words, whereby we have sought to call things by their right names without seeking to soften by refinement of language the repugnant phases of hard ugly facts, our functions cease. We have received the usual assistance, as required by law, from the District Attorney and Sheriff, which has been rendered with promptness. H. D. BARROWS, Foreman. Los Angeles, Feb. 27, 1875. A GREAT BRANDY DISCOVERY. One of the most extensive frauds on the revenue yet discovered in this section has just been brought to light. General Foulke and Mr. Mayhew, of the Internal Revenue Department, arrived here Thursday quietly and unannounced, on the steamer Senator. That evening they summoned the attaches of the Revenue Department, and they proceeded to the Los Angeles Distillery, across the river, and near the bridge. They were evidently armed with circumstantial information, for THE UNTIED STATES SENATE. The Senatorial elections have now been completed, and we give below a full list, showing the political constitution of the Senate at the commencement of the Forty-fourth Congress.

One of the most extensive frauds on the revenue yet discovered in this section has just been brought to light. General Foulke and Mr. Mayhew, of the Internal Revenue Department, arrived here Thursday quietly and unannounced, on the steamer Senator. That evening they summoned the attaches of the Revenue Department, and they proceeded to the Los Angeles Distillery, across the river, and near the bridge. They were evidently armed with circumstantial information, for they at once proceeded to a shed, used as a grape receiving house, and lifted the floor and sank holes in the ground. They had not dug deep before they encountered a hard substance, and on examination found a large wooden tank, filled with fine grape brandy. Another shaft was sunk at another point in the shed, and developed the presence, at a depth in the earth, of another tank also filled with grape brandy. These two tanks contained about 30,000 gallons of liquor. By careful survey, it was found that a pipe led from each of these tanks, underground, to the still room, where it projected a nozzle to within a few inches of the surface. The conclusion reached by the party was that the brandy was run from the still into this nozzle, and thence conveyed by pipes into the great tanks unearthed. Other packages of brandy in casks were found in various illicit places, such as the barn, where thirteen pipes were concealed in the hay, the entire "find" amounting, so far, to the vicinity of 60,000 gallons. The distillery has only accounted to the Government for 25,000 gallons manufactured during the season, 15,000 of which had been removed. The revenue due on the entire amount so far unearthed would reach to almost $42,000. The entire lot was seized, and will, of course, be confiscated by the Government. The distillery was seized early Fall for an "irregularity," and bonds had been filed in that case, which is yet in the U.S. Courts. The discovery now made will doubtless wind up the operations of the distillery under its present proprietorship. The most deplorable feature of this whole affair is that the company running the distillery, and who will now probably be ruined for their attempt to defraud the revenue, are indebted in varying important sums to many of our poor grape raisers. The upshot will probably be the total loss of this money by a class of people who are not able to bear it. War Horses. War horses when hit in battle, tremble in every muscle, and groan deeply, while their eyes show deep astonishment. During the battle of Waterloo, some of the horses, as they lay upon the ground, having recovered from the first agony of their wounds, felt to eating the grass about them, thus surrounding themselves with a circle of bare ground, the limi- Indiana—O.

MISCELLANEOUS. A Spaniard has been arrested in Madrid, who said he intended to assassinate King Alfonso. "My real number is six, but my hand will stand squeezing," is what she said to the young man at the glove counter. And the great thick-headed lunate got her a pair of fins and a half gloves without finding out how much squeezing her hand would bear. We would have worked at that job an hour, but she should have had an exact fit. Not a bad story comes from the Savage Club,London,bbut it does not seem clear who first made the joak.A "Savage"was standing on the steps at Evans' Hotel,Covenant Gardenwhere the club is now locatedwhen a gentleman came up to him and asked him if there was "a gentleman with one eye named Walker,"in the club.I don't know;"responded the Savage;what was the name of his other eye."A Hartshire paper informs us that War Horses.—War horses when hit in battle, tremble in every muscle, and groan deeply, while their eyes show deep astonishment. During the battle of Waterloo, some of the horses, as they lay upon the ground, having recovered from the first agony of their wounds, fell to eating the grass about them, thus surrounding themselves with a circle of bare ground, the limited extent of which showed their weakness. Others were observed quietly grazing on the field between the two hostile lines, their riders having been shot off their backs; and the balls flying over their heads, and the tumult behind, before, and around them, caused no interruption to the usual instinct of their nature. It was also observed that when a charge of cavalry went past near to any of the stray horses already mentioned they would start off for themselves in the rear of their mounted companions, and though without riders, gallop strenuously along with the rest, not stopping or flinching, when the fatal shock with the enemy took place. At the battle of Kirk, in 1745, Major Macdonald, having unhorsed an English officer, took possession of his horse which was very beautiful, and immediately mounted it. When the English cavalry fled, the horse ran away with his captor, notwithstanding all his efforts to restrain him nor did it stop until it was at the head of the regiment of which, apparently, its master was the commander. The melancholy, and at the same time ludicrous figure which McDonald presented when he thus saw himself the victim of his ambition to possess a fine horse, which ultimately cost him his life upon the scaffold, may be easily conceived. The Secret of Health—First—Keep cool. Second—Eat regularly and slowly. Third—Maintain regular bodily habits. Fourth—Take early and very light suppers. Fifth—Keep a clean skin. Sixth—Get plenty of sleep at night. Seventh—Keep careful and respectable company. Eighth—Keep out of debt. Ninth—Don't set your mind on things you don't need. Truth—Mind your own business. Eleventh—Don't set up to lie a sharp of any kind. Twelfth—Subdue curiosity. Not a bad story comes from the Savage Club, London, but it does not seem clear who first made the joak. A "Savage" was standing on the steps at Evans Hotel, Convent Garden where the club is now located, when a gentleman came up to him and asked him if there was "a gentleman with one eye named Walker," in the club "I don't know," responded the Savage: "what was the name of his other eye?" A Harrisburg paper informs us that "when a gentleman and lady are walking upon the street the lady should walk inside of the gentleman." We shall not discuss the practicability of this feat, but we may refer to the theory as illustrating the general disposition of men to harass and oppress the gentler sex. If the friends of Miss Anthony do not desire her to visit Harrisburg upon an errand of war, they will keep this intelligence from her. The Virginia City Enterprise says that when we consider the prevalence of the custom to dub every body who went to the wars with the title of Captain, Colonel, General, etc., there is a peculiar appropriateness in the following resolution, which was introduced at a meeting of Confederate soldiers at Atlanta, Georgia, the other day: Resolved That the President appoint a Committee of one to impulse into the matter of whether there are any surviving privates of the late war. We owe our readers an apology. For the last six weeks we have been shivering, and grumbling between the shivers, about the weather; while the best our thermometers have been able to do has been three degrees below zero once, and an approach to this point home two or three times. When we read what the thermometers have been able to do in other places, we look like hanging our head and apologizing and requesting to be forgiven. The Mount Pleasant, Michigan, Harold on the 4th says, in an indifferent, unlittle consequence sort of way that "this morning at 6 o'clock the mercury stood at 37 below zero." The Harling Wis., Journal, with an exultant cry, "This morning (the fifth) the mercury stood 35° below zero." When editors can shout with the mercury at 33° below it is time that we with only zero to boast of; should cultivate silence — Vineland. (N.J.) Independent.
