It would seem as if the avowed mission of every blessed lunatic in Germany was to kill Bismarck. At least, whenever an attempt is made to kill that statesman, the culprit is declared insane. A fellow was arrested the other day watching for Bismarck with murderous intent, and he was promptly lodged in a lunatic asylum. The Oakland Transcript says that John F. Swift enjoys the reputation of being the head man in the Independent party, and accuses him of trying to fix up things so as to secure his own nomination for Governor. It thinks that with a whisky-drinking, blowhard "warhorse" on the Democratic ticket, and such a light-weight as Swift on the Independent ticket, the Republicans ought to be able to elect a Chinaman if they felt so disposed. The Minnesota grasshopper has been taken in and done for. A dispatch from St. Paul says that the eggs in Decker county, on the Northern Pacific, are destroyed. Nearly all the worms were from a quarter to half an inch long. The smaller ones are white and the larger ones are tinged with brown. In blue earth many of the eggs are said to be rotted and killed by the prolonged cold and wet weather. The prospects are promising for an overwhelming yield in Redwood, Yellow, Medicine and Lac Qui Parle counties.

THE SAN GABRIEL VALLEY. The San Gabriel river also takes its rise in the Sierra Madre Mountains, and issues from them a few miles northerly from El Monte, but soon disappears beneath the immense bed of gravel and boulders which form its bed after reaching the plain. To properly utilize the waters of this river, the water should be brought out in flumes and ditches from some rocky ledge in the cafion, before it has time to sink, then it could be brought out on to the table lands on each side, and reclaim much land, now worthless for want of it. Enough has been done on the Azusa Rancho, in the settlement of Duarte, to show what could be done if the water was properly utilized. El Monte comprises the upper valley of the San Gabriel, and contains about 10,000 acres, most of which are made very moist and productive by natural moisture, or the constant presence of abundance of water in the soil, so near the surface that crops are grown without irrigation; and like a large portion of the valley below, on similar land, the crops never fail. East of El Monte is the valley of San Jose, about 20 miles long by an average of one mile wide, watered by an unfailing stream of spring water, sufficient, if properly utilized, to irrigate the whole valley. THE LOWER VALLEY Commences at the point where the San Gabriel river passes through a gorge in the Puente Hills; and where, as I have before remarked, the river, after passing under El Monte, encounters a ledge of rock, or some other obstacle, and rises again in the form of springs, part of which flow into and supply the Old, and the other part the New San Gabriel rivers. Nearly all the water of both streams is taken out for the purpose of irrigation, during the Summer, but there is no system of ditches, and the water is wastefully used by the parties owning the ditches, so that not one-half of the land is irrigated that should be, if the whole district was organized under the law and managed to advantage. Besides it is probable that the quantity of water could be indefinitely increased by sinking artesian wells at the point where the The centennial of the German Fusileers, the only surviving military company of those which were organized in Charleston, May 3, 1775, upon the receipt of the news of the battle of Lexington, was celebrated in Charleston, S. C., on the third inst., by an imposing demonstration. The day was observed as a general holiday. A battery of the First Artillery fired a salute of 100 guns at sunrise, and the church bells chimed at intervals during the day. A grand military parade of all the white companies in the city was had, escorting the Fusileers. The New York Sun has entered the list of journals which are endeavoring by false representations, to retard immigration to California. It reiterates the stereotyped cry that the supply of labor is in excess of the demand, a statement which is effectually refuted in the communication of Mr. Olden, published in another column. It charges that the greed of land monopolists has not left much room for small farmers, except as renters or lease holders, a statement which proves that the Sun is unpardonably ignorant of the subject on which it seeks to give advice. Norman C. Jones, who recently purchased 5,000 acres of the Rancho Azusita, offers novel inducements to settlers. He proposes to let twenty acres of choice cleared land to the head of a family or a single man until the 1st day of January, 1876, for one-tenth of all the crops grown on the land. In addition he will furnish one good horse or mule, water for irrigation, and wood and water for domestic purposes. This is the most liberal inducement to the immigrant that has yet been made, and we doubt not that the offer will meet with a ready response. A. W. Ports, County Clerk, has received a letter from the Secretary of State, calling his attention to the fact that several persons, who have been commissioned as Notaries Public for Los Angeles county have not filed certificates of qualification as required by law. Among those enumerated The legal district was organized under the law and managed to advantage. Besides it is probable that the quantity of water could be indefinitely increased by sinking artesian wells at the point where the springs burst forth, from which the water might be carried on to the fertile table lands on each side of the river, which are now almost entirely without water. Seven miles below the springs, the flowing well-belt is reached, below which point, the country is independent of ditch-water. The lower valley, or Los Nietos, contains between the springs and the artesian well-belt, about 10,000 acres of land, which is irrigated, and at least as much more of better land which ought to be irrigated by the present supply of water. The Los Angeles river, a westerly branch of the San Gabriel, supplies with water at and below the city of Los Angeles, about 6,000 acres, and yet, although the system of ditches and the management of them is the best of any now in the county, still it is proposed to save the water now wasted, and irrigate more land. The valley of the San Gabriel, including its branches, contains with El Monte, about 30,000 acres, that from irrigation or natural moisture, are certain to produce crops any and every year—land entirely independent of the seasons; and it is quite safe to calculate that there is fully 30,000 acres more that ought to be irrigated, and will be, when a more energetic and enterprising population has replaced the sluggish and pig-headed class, that not only won't do anything themselves, but like the dog in the manger, try to keep all others from doing it. Then these extensive and fertile plains will cease to be the grazing grounds of comparatively worthless stock, and become the happy homes of thousands of people. Land capable of irrigation in these fertile valleys is too valuable to be longer kept as pasture grounds. Our large and fertile ranchos must be divided up, and become the homes of the coming multitude whose advance guard is already here. This will enrich their owners, and develop the country. No one pretends to dispute the fact that our climate is superior to that of any part of the world. Our meteorological record proves this beyond question, and the writer, an expert in agricultural lands, unhesitatingly declares from personal observation, that there are no lands in any other part of California, or in the Mississippi valley, not even the Ohio river bottoms, that will compare in fertility and productiveness, to the irrigated lands of Semi-Tropical California. But by far the most valuable of our resources is our inexhaustible supply of water for irrigation, by the aid of which, and our favorable climate, agricultural operations are reduced to a mathematically where he can. He says: "A overdone and over the Storm." If it of mercantile business is in proof that this fact that in itsibility of objection white labor are constant railroads, in all kinds all these cases preferred if Chinamen a month for this treated invasions live up to the men who do to the agree save their selves, and tramps and is the highest never care t and then treat abundant times in towns, but won't go to with the m cities where demand, but where they per day.

Ports, County Clerk, has received a letter from the Secretary of State, calling his attention to the fact that several persons, who have been commissioned as Notaries Public for Los Angeles county have not filed certificates of qualification as required by law. Among those enumerated are Sam. Hamilton, of Anaheim; and H. H. Dickerman, of Tustin City. The Secretary of State is desirous of ascertaining whether any of the persons mentioned have qualified in the County Clerk's office, as he is in receipt of several applications from various parts of this county for appointments (including Westminster, where they have neither Justice of the Peace or Notary) which cannot be made until it is definitely ascertained how many vacancies actually exist. An Express reporter has been interviewing Gen. Colton, of the S. P. R.R. The General in reply to the questions of the reporter, stated that he would reduce the lighterage charges at Wilmington twenty per cent; that he would permit vessels whose draught admits of it, to go up to the wharf; that during this summer one hundred miles of road would be built towards Arizona; that the gap between San Fernando and Calliste would be closed about the 1st of July, 1870. Alluding to the Independence road the General considered it hardly fair that after his company had come to a sparsely settled country and built a railway, other people should build a road which will run for nearly one hundred miles parallel with it. He thought that the road was only on Jasper—that its projectors would soon come to the conclusion that they had made a mistake. He said further that for the present the road would not be extended across the Santa Ana to the San Joaquin ravено. NORFICAL ALLEY. No takes its Mountains, few miles out soon disuse bed of form its.

Immigrants seeking homes should see for themselves, and not heed the interested advice of parties offering to sell the parched and unproductive plains of the north, and buy nothing without water. A LYING CORRESPONDENT. The immigration to California, which is now assuming such vast proportions, is creating a panic among all classes of people whose interests will be disagreeably affected by the exodus. These men will not hesitate to lie or misrepresent facts, if by so doing, they can check the flow and retain for a while longer a few of those who would otherwise come. These remarks are called forth by a half-column of misrepresentations and falsehoods headed, "California Humbugs," published in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, which gives the statements of Mr. Justus Ramsey, who claims to have spent several months in California, but who must have seen very little of the State, and consequently knew nothing upon which to base an opinion, or if he did see, has deliberately lied about what he saw. The natural presumption is that he saw nothing himself, and only retailed what he was told by some dissipated bummer, who was disgusted with a country where he could not live without work. He says: "All kinds of business is overdone and thousands of people all over the State are without employment." If the former is true, failures of mercantile houses would be frequent, but on the contrary all kinds of business is in a healthy condition. The proof that the latter is not true is the fact that in consequence of the impossibility of obtaining a reliable supply of white labor, thousands of Chinamen are constantly employed in building AROUND THE COUNTY.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to the stockholders in the Hotel and Building Association of Anaheim that at a meeting held on Wednesday, May 5th, 1875, the Board of Trustees levied an assessment of five per cent. on the capital stock of the said Association, payable on or before the 5th day of June, 1875 for the treasurer, Richard Heimann, at his office on Los Angeles street. And it is further ordered that any stock upon which said assessment remains unpaid on the said 5th day of June, 1875, shall be deemed diligent, and will be duly advertised for sale at public auction, and unless payment shall have been made before, will be sold on Saturday the 10th day of July, 1875, to pay the delilquent assments together with the costs of advertising and expenses of sale. By order of the Board of Trustees. RICHARD MELROSE, Secretary. Anaheim, Cal., May 5th, 1875. Election Notice. Clerk's Office, Board of Supervisors. LOS ANGELES County, California. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that in pursuance of an Act entitled, "an Act to promote irrigation in the county of Los Angeles," approved March 10th, 1874. It is ordered that an election be held in Water District No. 2, at Anaheim, Los Angeles county, Saturday, June 5th, 1875, at the office of the Anaheim Water Company, at which election the qualified electors of said Water District No. 2 will proceed to elect three Water Commissioners and one Overseer; and upon the same ballot vote "Yes" or "No" upon the question: "shall a tax be levied to pay for the proposed irrigation works." It is also ordered that the polls must be opened at one hour after sunrise on the morning of the election; and must be kept open until sunset when the same must be closed; and that following named persons be appointed In- where he could not live without work. He says: "All kinds of business is overdone and thousands of people all over the State are without employment." If the former is true, failures of mercantile houses would be frequent, but on the contrary all kinds of business is in a healthy condition. The proof that the latter is not true is the fact that in consequence of the impossibility of obtaining a reliable supply of white labor, thousands of Chinamen are constantly employed in building railroads, irrigating ditches, and also in all kinds of farming operations. In all these cases, white labor would be preferred if it could be obtained. The Chinamen are paid from $28 to $30 a month for their services, and if fairly treated, invariably do honest work, and live up to the agreement. The white men who do honest work and live up to the agreement, have constant work, save their money, set up for themselves, and become employers. The tramps and scalawags, whose only idea is the highest pay for the least work, never care to work but for a few days, and then tramp again. There is an abundant demand for labor at all times in the country and country towns, but your able-bodied bummers won't go to the country. It is the same with the mechanics; they huddle in the cities where they are in excess of demand, but won't go to the country where they are wanted at $3 and $4 per day. The thousands be talks about are bummers, who don't want work, and won't take it when employment is offered. He says: "California oranges and lemons are a failure." This will be news to those orchardists in this and San Bernardino county, who yearly sell their crops at from $20 to $40 per thousand, and net from $1,000 to $2,000 from the produce of each acre of large orchards. "Grapes can be raised in some of the valleys in abundance, just as they can be raised in Minnesota!!" and he goes on to say that "wine making is only profitable when carried on on a large scale. This is some more news for the thrifty vintners of Anaheim, who have grown rich from the profits of their 20 and 40 acre vineyards, as well as to those scattered throughout the State. But the biggest and most outrageous lie of all is the statement that two and three successive crops are not raised in one year on the same piece of land. Every man in California, who knows anything, knows that two and even three full crops are raised each year by men who irrigate.

Creal is engaged in putting the finishing touches upon an invention of his own, which if it prove to be all that is claimed for it, will work an entire change in the business of sinking artesian wells, which is destined to become one of the most important industries of this State. Mr. Creal's invention proposes to do away entirely with the present system of poles, and to operate an augur similar to a post augur by the application of the force of gravitation in a novel and powerful manner which it would be difficult to describe intelligibly without a diagram. The augur is attached to a circular cylinder weighing about 150 pounds within which is a spiral shaft working in cog-wheels, by which the rotary motion is obtained. The augur is enclosed in a bucket, at the bottom of which are valves through which the sand and dirt ascend until it is full and the signal is given to raise the apparatus, when the valves close and the load of dirt is brought to the top by means of a rope worked by horse power. Mr. Creal has filed a caveat, and expects to have his work far enough advanced to make a working test in a week or ten days. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS For County Recorder.
