Anaheim Gazette SATURDAY...AUG. 21, 1875. SANTA ANA NOTES: The Wily Ways of the Politician—A Short Sketch of the Different Candidates—The Effect of Tanglefoot. Politics and politicians are overwhelming us just now. You cannot find a knot of men collected anywhere but what you will hear them discussing the merits on dancer's of the different candidates for office. Nearly all of them—the candidates for office—have been down here in the last ten days canvassing their prospects for obtaining the different offices, and all of them left—of both parties—firmly convinced that they would be elected. Democratic and Independent whisky flowed freely during their sojourn with us, and nearly all of them seemed to think that their chance of success lay in the patronage of the saloons and the treating of their customers. "Come and take a drink boys," "Who cares for expenses?" They also visited our different business houses, but they did not say—"come and take a hat, boys, or a sock, or a boot," which seemed to surprise the man who deal in general merchandise. Aside from these little peculiarities of our office-seeking friends most of them were all genial, clever, agreeable fellows, and in all probability they will continue so until the second of September. David W. Alexander, The Democratic candidate for Sheriff, was here among the rest of them, and a more genial, pleasant gentleman you would not wish to meet; but truth compels me to say that his chances of election to the office he seeks is considerably lessened from the fact that it is generally understood that he agreed to appoint as one of his deputies a man who, as Sheriff Rowland's deputy, came down here and committed an outrage upon one of the business men of this place, without the installation at Santa Barbara. Edw. Gazette—On Sunday last, Rev. E. Graham was installed pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Santa Barbara. The exercises were quite interesting, and that your readers may know how such things are done, I send you the main items. The church is new, having been dedicated on the Sabbath previous. It is a beautiful structure. The basement is of brick, and the rest of wood. The whole is painted brown, and sanded. The basement is divided into a large room for prayer-meetings and Sunday school, a ladies' parlor, a dressing-room, with suitable closets, and a kitchen and pantry. In these latter are a full equipment of tools for church house-keeping. The main audience-room is well arranged. Behind the pulpit is the organ and choir loft. The pews are arranged at angles to afford a good view of the speaker. The walls are tinted in soft colors; the windows-stained with a neutral shade. A gallery occupies the end opposite the pulpit. The seating capacity of the church is about 200, with room to add 150 or 200 more in the alks. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers. On the pulpit were two vases, containing each a bunch of a rare Mexican lilies, the most beautiful lily ever saw. They are the only ones on this coast, the bulb having been obtained from Mexico. The flower was a beautiful pink; the leaves of the plant looked like our orange leaf. The Installation exercises were as follows: Anthem, by the Choir. Invocation, by Rev. Mr. Lepps, of Virginia. Singing of Dolology, by the congregation. Reading of Scripture, by Dr. McLaren, of Detroit, Mich. After singing and the Lord's prayer, a sermon was delivered by Rev. Mr. Honeyman, of Pa. Then followed an Anthem by the Choir, after which the Moderator, Rev. Mr. Allis, of Anaheim, put the constitutional questions to both pastor and people. The installation prayer was offered by Dr. Phelps, of Santa Barbara. After singing, the charge to the pastor was given by Rev. Mr. Taylor, of San Buenaventura. The charge to the people was then given by Rev. J. M. Allis of Anaheim. As Governor Wood night that politics are closely allied in the grass, we need offer time for publishing port of a sermon day Ams recently.

ALEXANDER, The Democratic candidate for Sheriff, was here among the rest of them, and a more genial, pleasant gentleman you would not wish to meet; but truth compels me to say that his chances of election to the office he seeks is considerably lessened from the fact that it is generally understood that he agreed to appoint as one of his deputies a man who, as Sheriff Rowland's deputy, came down here and committed an outrage upon one of the business men of this place, without the shadow of an excuse, moral or legal. He directed two of his assistants to hold the victim while he searched his pockets. He was rewarded in finding between three and four hundred dollars which he took away with him and kept until he was threatened with prosecution, after which he disgorged. The citizens of this place do not propose to assist in putting any man in office who is pledged to appoint such a man as this, to assist him in executing the duties of his office. Mr. Lambourne was also here and is confident of success. MR. THOS. E. ROWAN, The candidate for County Treasurer, an extremely genial and pleasant gentleman, made a very good impression on the people here for the short time he was with us. Mr. Temple, his opponent, has also been here, and seems confident of success. The people here regard it in about the light that Mr. Temple being a millionaire, does not need the office. Mr. Rowan being a comparatively poor young man—always faithful in the performance of his official duties—his accounts always straight—the money always ready when required—they cannot see the necessity or the reason why they should discharge an honest, capable employee for a strange one they know not of. He will poll a full party vote, and with proper effort can get a large proportion of the Independent and Republican vote. He is, and considers himself to be, truly a servant of the people and not master, as so many public officials consider themselves to be. C. E. MILES, (Dem.) Also called, and "snoole a smile," but candor compels us to the belief that Mr. J. W. Gillette (Ind.), will "get away with him" casily. A. W. RYAN, Democratic nominee for Assessor, was along with the boys also. Being well acquainted here, and having had five years' experience as Assistant Assessor, the people here will give him an almost unanimous support for the office he seeks. ROBERT FURLONG, (Ind.), Also put in an appearance, and made a good impression and many votes. Mr. Jere Fryer, (Ind.), was canvassing around here, but soon found that it was like "casting pearls before swine," to present his claims in this community, and "moved on" to a more congenial soil. Messrs. Caswell & Sablehl, (Ind.), were also here for a short time, and presented their claims for the suffrages of the people. It is believed that Messrs. Potts & Kromeration. Reading of Scripture, by Dr. McLaren, of Detroit, Mich. After singing and the Lord's prayer, a sermon was delivered by Rev. Mr. Honeyman, of Pa. Then followed an Anthem by the Choir, after which the Moderator, Rev. Mr. Allis, of Anaheim, put the constitutional questions to both pastor and people. The installation prayer was offered by Dr. Phelps, of Santa Barbera. After singing, the charge to the pastor was given by Rev. Mr. Taylor, of San Buenaventura. The charge to the people was then given by Rev. J.M.Allis,of Anaheim. Singing and benediction by the new pastor closed the exercises. The church is located up town, near the college, and is accessible by horse cars from points down the street. Santa Barbara is looking well. The plain on the hill toward the Mission, is being rapidly covered with fine dwellings, erected by the wealthy Eastern people who design making Santa Barbara their home. Not far from the college has been erected a new hotel, costing not far from $150,-000. A wealthy gentleman has plans already drawn for another, to cost a million. In the business part of the city, building is progressing rapidly. A large three-story structure, costing $40,000 is nearly done. The Second National Bank, I think it is, have laid foundations for a new bank building. The court-house is a fine structure. A fine school building has just been erected. Santa Barbraa has two institutions which we lack, and need, and can, and ought to have. One is good sidewalks, and the other is good water provision in time of fire. The air of Santa Barbara seemed cooler and damper than here. Fogs there are the rule, I am told, for the first part of the day. The place is an excellent resort for wealthy people, in good health, but for sick people I should advise the milder, dryer, more equable climate of—well, say Anaheim. I noticed that the mountain obstacle to a railroad to Santa Barbara has not yet been overcome by "climb it," or elimate, or any other power. The town is still at the mercy of stage or steamer. The trip was very enjoyable though too brief. Of the region passed over, I may be able to give you a few words at another time. Yours, Truly, J. M.A. The San Juan Hot Springs. A patient of Dr. McCoy, of Westminster has written a letter from the San Juan Capistrano Hot Springs, and the Doctor has permitted us to make the following extracts: "Knowing that you as a physician humanitarian and citizen are desirous of informing yourself of all pertaining to the relief and care of suffering humanity, I take the liberty of writing to you from and of the Hot Springs. These springs are hot, very hot, suggestive of fire; they are sulphurous, which is suggestive of brimstone.

Messrs. Caswell & Sablehl, (Ind.), were also here for a short time, and presented their claims for the suffrages of the people. It is believed that Messrs. Potts & Kremer will give them a hard race. As far as our local politics are concerned, we have nothing to elect but a Justice of the Peace in October, and as it is so far off, I will only say that there are three candidates in the field—one Republican, one Democrat, and one Democratic-Republican-Independent-Granger. The latter thinks that if he can unite all of these elements, of which he is composed, that he will stand a very fair chance of being elected. Our election, on the question of voting a school tax, takes place on the 4th of September. Mr. G. L. Russell is a candidate for the office of Assessor and Collector of sald tax, in case it is voted. Being one of the most popular and respectable citizens in this community, he will have little or no opposition. REPREHENSIBLE CONDUCT. We wish to call the attention of the people of Orange to a little circumstance that happened here the other day. Some of the young people came down here and came very near emptying the town of "tanglefoot," which, in turn, emptied some of them from their saddles up here by the school house, which "spoiled the road." We had always thought, previous to this, that there was no demand for a saloon in Orange, but find that we were mistaken. Biox. The Republican Congressional Convention for the first Mississippi District, which met in Memphis, has split. One wing numbering 24 delegates withdrew and nominated G. W. Wells, ex U.S. District Attorney, as their candidate for Congress; while the other wing, numbering 84, nominated A. R. Howe. Wells is supported by ex Senator Revels and Pease, and a majority of colored voters favor Howe. A patient of Dr. McCoy, of Westminster has written a letter from the San Juan Capistrano Hot Springs, and the Doctor has permitted us to make the following extracts: "Knowing that you as a physician, humanitarian, and citizen are desirous of informing yourself of all pertaining to the relief and care of suffering humanity, I take the liberty of writing to you from and of the Hot Springs. These springs are hot, very hot, suggestive of fire; they are sulphurous, which is suggestive of brimstone. Iron is one of the ingredients; and of the medicinal properties you may rest assured they will cure every disease. The springs are numerous, water enough for all, and free to all that come. No monopoly has fastened its elutches upon them. Allow me to call your attention to the surroundings. On the north, in majestic grandeur, stands Flag-staff Peak, on the top of which, some few years ago, on the natal day of our country, an enthusiastic and patriotic young girl planted the Stars and Stripes; and to-day, in that etherial air the flag is still waving. On the south is Verder mountain, green and bright as the Emerald Isle of yore. On the east is Orchard Peak. From the top of any of these points the view is very fine; indeed it is truly grand. On the west is Iron Spring Caillon; to the north-west runs Trout Caillon, and to the north-east Narrow Caillon. These caillons are clad in eternal durure, studded here and there with sycamore and live oak trees, and traversed by sparkling mountain streams. In short, Doctor, the place and all its surroundings are grand and romantic—and the people here are largely rheumatic. You, Doctor, will at once and fully appreciate the advantage of all this magnificent scenery in producing a healthy state of mind, so important to the full and speedy healing of the physical man." About 11 o'clock last evening a fire broke out in the railroad company's shop in Sacramento. Four large sheds with their contents, coal and wood, were destroyed. The Pioneer Flour Mills were considerably damaged, also the old Sacramento Gas Works. Fifteen freight cars, loaded with wheat, were destroyed. The estimated total damage is about $30,000.

As Governor Woodstold us the other night that politics and religion were closely allied in their origin and progress, we need offer no apology at this time for publishing the following report of a sermon delivered at Santa Ana recently. We are indebted to our live correspondent, Blom, for the report, which is as follows: An eloquent discourse was delivered here on Sunday night, by a strange divine from Missouri. We forget the text, but the effort was mainly directed to support the doctrine of "election" and what constituted a "christian soldier." His definition of the latter character was so good that the gist of the discourse will bear reproduction. "The various appellations given to Christians in the Scriptures are all pregnant with instruction. Christ, for example, calls his disciples sheep, and Himself the Good Shepherd; and all the simplicity and helplessness of the children of God, and the watchful care they so constantly needed, are expressed with poetic force and beauty in this pastoral figure. Addressing husbandmen—the tillers of the soil, in every age—He describes His true followers as the wheat in contrast with the tares. To the fishermen by the seaside, He compares the truly regenerate to the good fish caught in the net of evangelizing efforts, and the false professors to the bad that, in the final separation, will be cast out as worthless. The young converts, newly born of the spirit, are designated as babes, and the appropriate nourishment prescribed for them is the pure milk of the word. The trained Christian, who has grown strong through discipline and obedience, and who knows that great rewards can be won over and above the gift of "eternal life," is fittingly compared to an athlete competing for a prize in the Grecian games. And when the great Apostle to the Gentiles addressed Timothy—his "dearly beloved son," in the faith—with the words of solemn counsel, that are to guide and govern God's witnesses for the truth through all time, he exhends him to be "a good soldier of Jesus Christ." As walking with God implies keeping step to the music of His word—the music which cheers the Christian's pilgrimage through the wilderness of time, and moulds his life on earth in harmony with heaven—so marching in the ranks of the re- BY TELEGRAPH.

And when the great Apostle to the Gentiles addressed Timothy—his "dearly beloved son," in the faith—with the words of solemn counsel, that are to guide and govern God's witnesses for the truth through all time, he exhorts him to be "a good soldier of Jesus Christ." As walking with God implies keeping step to the music of His word—the music which cheers the Christian's pilgrimage through the wilderness of time, and mounds his life on earth in harmony with heaven—so, marching in the ranks of the redeemed as a subject and soldier of the King of Kings implies the exercise of every virtue from childlike confidence and love to the most sublime heroism of the faith. The warrior stage, however, is by no means the first in the order of Christian progress. It is an attainment. Babes are not impressed into the service. The full vigor of Christian manhood is preliminary to the soldier state. Christians are reared for conflict, and Christian warfare is in the line of Christian glory; but whosegoeth on in the warfare contrary to the Commander's will, without the Christian's appointed armor and weapons, is not a soldier. He may be an enthusiast, but he dishonors his chief; and, instead of reaping a soldier's reward, incurs the penalty of disobedience." [Just here an interruption occurred. The worthy diving inquired of Deacon H—how long he had been preaching. Deacon J—embraced this opportunity to catch a lion, while Deacon R—went out of doors to smash some boys who were making a disturbance at the door, after which Bro. Lambkin proceeded to continue.] "The Christians true country is the heavenly. He does not change his bodily raiment, but he is newly clothed from the quartermaster's department on high, chiefly with the garments of humanity. He remains in the world, but is no longer of the world. This separation is symbolized by his baptismal burial with Christ. His lot is cast with a distinct or peculiar people, not with Protestants or Catholics, or Presbyterians or Baptists or Quakers, but with the whole people of God, all who are to constitute the body of Christ in the world to come. While here, they may be designated by different colors, like the various divisions of a great army; nevertheless, the army to which they belong is one, and it is a shame for the members of it, who are professedly ready to die for the same cause, to cherish bitter jealousies and envyings toward each other because they are marshalled in different regiments. The Christian is not anxious as to what he shall eat or drink. He trusts that to the Commissariat of heaven. He knows that all his cares are born at headquarters. Cast your cares on Him for He careth for you, is a command to the christian soldier, and he obeys it. To him all things becomes new, and the well spring of this is the love of God shed abroad in his heart. He is capable and ready to endure hardness as a soldier of Jesus Christ. No matter what his vocation or calling, he knows nothing but to be a soldier. No man that warrants entanglement on the Great Register in this county this year; an increase of 500 since last election.

To please Him who hath chosen him to be a soldier is the sole object and purpose of his being. He is never without his armor, though the weapons of his warfare are not carnal. No matter who, or how many may prove false, unfaithful, cowardly, or desert in the hour of danger, the good soldier of Christ, having done all, as the victorious overcome, stands firm until relieved by his Chief. The christian soldier knows no fear, for he bears a charmed life. "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in Him." was the thought of Job in the twilight of a distant age, but in the noonday fulgence of revelation, the true soldier of the Cross lifts his eyes and reads in letters of glory upon the arches of heaven: "Whosoever believeth and liveth in me, shall never die." Discarmetted Roharn. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18. Yesterday afternoon as Wells, Fargo and Co.'s stage, on the Downeyville route, was turning a steep curve in a ravine, it was suddenly sprang upon by two highwaymen, one of whom stood at the horses' heads with a shotgun, while the other drew a bead on the driver and ordered him to throw down the box. He was about to comply, when Col. Von Schmidt, who was riding on the outside with the driver, slapped a cocked six-shooter into the robber's face, with the remark, "you damned scoundrel, I am on that lay myself." The road agent sprang aside into the thicket, and his companion with the shot gun soon followed. The stage resumed its journey. About $10,000 was said to Wells, Fargo & Co. by the gallantry and coolness of the Colonel. The Black Hills. St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 18. A special from Bismarck says that advises from the Bismarck Black Hills party note their arrival. Indians attacked the party at Bear Butte; no lives were lost. They report that gold in large paying quantities has been found in French and other gulches, also that gold bearing quartz in large quantities has also been found. Hundreds of miners were pouring into the mines, and were ordered by General Crook to meet at Stockwoods, at Custar's gulch, to make laws for the regulation of claims. Miners are to leave the hills until a treaty is made. The Indians will not treat until all the miners depart. A nugget was taken from Custar's gulch, weighing 18 dollars. Prof. Jenny found one nugget weighing 36 dollars. Our citizens have implicit confidence in the reports made by the Bismarck party. San Francisco Markets. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20.
