Anaheim Gazette SATURDAY SEPT. 18, 1875. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Dedication of the New Hall---The Crops--- Sealing Coals to Newcastle. Westminster Grange will dedicate their new hall on Saturday. We hope the neighboring Oranges will be fully represented. We will do our utmost to make the occasion one of enjoyment to all who may afford us the pleasure of their company. To show that property is increasing in value here, I would state that an acre and a half of land on the town site changed hands a short time ago at the rate of $150 per acre,' and no improvements on the land. The corn crop is maturing much earlier than usual, and appearances are that it will be very abundant. It may seem strange, but Westminster (that never was to amount to anything, and could never produce grapes for numerous reasons.) is now sending several hundred pounds a week to Anaheim, and the people absolutely eat them! More, the people who live beyond Anaheim, drive through that place and come to Westminster to purchase grapes! And you shall still hear men of experience in Anaheim lay down the law and give twelve reasons why the soil of Westminster will never produce grapes. I hope when they find that they have been paying a big price for grapes raised here, it will not cause an eruption of the stomach. The school is progressing wonderfully. The average attendance is over fifty, and new pupils are entering and deodorize, in thy own good time our colored brethren who unite with us here. Hase special mercy upon those miserable clerical suckors who are deadheading round this place. Wilt thou bless Landlord Paulkner; may obedience to thy will come as naturally to him as it does to keep a temperance or any other kind of a hotel.

CAMP MEETING NOTES. BY OUR FUNNY CORRESPONDENT. Within the limits of the Los Bolsas—in the willows—Methodist lambs (North and South) lie down together. With the sharp upper notes of the piccolo of a belated musquito—which with sanguinary purpose, had on our left ear alighted—found us to the willows wending our way. But that they sing as they work their surgery might be tolerable. To learn as we do from Prof. Agassiz, that only the female musquito goes in for blood puddings, makes us happy. To know that the natural food of this cussed little varmint is vegetable juices, that the Lord created him for the prevention of miasma, that blood is unnatural to him, and that he dies of congestion after making a meal of it, we are pleased. After our arrival at the camp ground, with Parson M——, and Deacon G——we soon collided. What Parson M——, and Deacon G——, et. al. determined upon some weeks ago, was to get up something like a cross between the roaring camp meeting with its hellfire and hot gospel surroundings, and the dissipation and frivolity of fashion's haunts. In what they undertook, so great has been their success, that Parson M—— says the direct hand of providence can be traced. Palatable fodder and black coffee (without brandy) Deacon G——dispenses. That he makes nothing out of it he clearly demonstrates. Religious dead-headism is the cause of it he asserts. Of this department Bro. G——is the chief bottle washer and cook. Of religion he claims to have layed in quite a stock. To the Rev. Bro. R——we were introduced. The religious services this worthy disciple conducted, "Prepare to meet thy God," was the subject he punished. With the anatomy of the human heart, this Breather He awes all the children He meets by the way; Forbids them to laugh, And forbids them to play; Turns up in great horror The whites of his eyes That they should be foolish While he is so wise—Poor old Pharisee John. The prayers he puts up Are not lacking in words And his psalm-singing fairly Bewilders the bird; But he prays in this wise To Jehovah, alas! So the skies might as well Be of lead or of brass To poor Pharisee John. "Have mercy, oh God! On these sinners, I pray. And I thank Thee, dear Lord, That I am not as they;" That my actions are holy And pure in Thy sight. Yet remember poor sinners"—And agonized quite Is our Pharisee John. In vain for him Nature Wears garments of green And landscapes of beauty Enliven each scene Sin lurks in each blossom Each leaf and each blade; Sim, sim is in all things The Father has made Except Pharisee John. CONVERT. Santa Ana, Sept. 10, 1875. From Thursday's Daily. Editorial Correspondence. SANTA ANA, Sept. 15th, 1875. To realize the march of improvement that this section has made within the past year, one must visit the town and its suturbs. The new houses built, the number of farms improved, and the rapid progress made in the orchard and vineyard is almost incredulous. The town itself has undergone much change since my last visit. There are now two grocery and general merchandise stores. One, the fine new store of Mr. W. H. Spurgeon, an elegant building well stocked with everything which the fast increasing trade of this section demands. The other is kept by a Mr. Harlan, who has recently opened with a fine stock of groceries and general merchandise. The old store of the Frankel Bros. is as yet in charge of a keeper, and no business is transacted. Parties are now taking account of stock for the benefit of creditors. There are three blacksmiths here, and all seem to have their time fully occupied. J. Baldwin, who might be called the pioneer blacksmith of the place, still plies his hammer at the old shop. At a neat little shop near the new store, we noticed an old acquaintance, Mr. W. G. Hubbard, who carried on an extensive wagon manufacture and blacksmithing establishment in Monterey county, some years ago. He is a master of his rights to the patronage and the shingle of the conspicuous fittings of Mr. Spurgeon soon organize their buildings are being direction, and so go for lumber, that the lumber yard at New Sibley is able to supply the Fadden assured us 2000 feet of lumber in the steamer Newport slowly a stick left.

The religious services this worthy disciple conducted, "Prepare to meet thy God," was the subject he punished. With the anatomy of the human heart this Brother is well acquainted; that the average heart is a reeking sin and channel house he fully proved. The only remedy for this bad condition of affairs, was to get religion, the dear Brother insisted. The singing department by Bro. S—is conducted. With healthy lungs and stentorian voice, this Brother is endowed. Deacon J—at a distance we saw. Like a dying duck he turned up his eyes as he sang. Of an Eolcan harp hung in a tree, his voice would remind you. During secret prayer, upon Bro. C—we stumbled. Whether Judas' dog was a poole or a skye-terrier, was a question which this dear Brother was pondering. To enlighten him we were not able. To do our personal devotions, to a clump of young willows we repaired. Scarcely had we audibly opened out our petition, than on the other side of the bushes was commenced a full sized prayer, in a voice that in the whole world Brother R—alone could possess. As we know that the Lord would not be both handed with us until Brother T—had stated his case, in taking notes we put in our time. After praying for outsiders in general, he descended to individuals. "Remember in thy mercy," he said, "Bro. Jones, and with the tongs of truth take a red hot coal from the altar of thy love and jam right into Bro. Judge J—is lying round loose some-Jones' heart. Have a special care of Bro. Humphries, and keep his virtues sweet. Watch on Brother Josiah Ross, now taking account of stock for the benefit of creditors. There are three blacksmiths here, and all seem to have their time fully occupied. J. Baldwin, who might be called the pioneer blacksmith of the place, still plies his hammer at the old shop. At a neat little shop near the new store, we noticed an old acquaintance, Mr. W. G. Hubbard, who carried on an extensive wagon manufactory and blacksmithing establishment in Monterey county, some years ago. He is a master of his trade, and will doubtless build up a flourishing business in this locality. Two butcher shops furnish meat to the hungry, one of which is now temporarily closed, to be opened, we understand, on Monday next. Dr. Cunningham combines the dispensing of cures to illis that flesh is heir to with the repairing of watches and jewelry. Fashionable dressmaking too, finds room in his spacious building, and we have been informed, upon good authority, that beautiful patterns and tasty dresses are furnished at the shortest notice. Mr. J. C. Hickey has as good a stable as can be found this side of Los Angeles. He has splendid horses, and our old Anaheim friend, Ed. Ladd, takes pride in turning out as sleek and nice a team as can be found in the county, and serves out the barley and hay with a generous hand. Messrs. Faulkner and Rudesal act in the role of Bonifaces to the homeless and hungry wanderer. Neither of them make an extensive display of napkins and silver spoons, but furnish their table liberally with well cooked, savory substantials, tempting to the appetites of those who like a good, solid, hearty meal. Sleeping accommodations are scarce, but soon the hotel will be opened under the management of Mrs. Curtis, former partner of Mrs. Larkin, of the Hygean Home, at Orange. The hotel will be opened in the building formerly erected for that purpose, now occupied by Mr. Palmer, who is erecting an elegant dwelling near the town. A tin shop has been opened here, and the enterprising proprietor informed us of his intention of putting in a large stock of stoves and tinware adequate to the requirements of this entire section. Harness making in all its branches is carried on by Mr. Hines, who receives a large share of the patronage of this section. Of saloons there is a full supply. Messrs. Bush & Sims, who have lately opened here, have a good supply of all the pleasant beverages, including the rich, creamy beer, for which our Anaheim brewers are so justly noted. Physicians, too, are not found wanting in this pleasant burg. Dra. Burtnett and Jones, when we visited them, seemed to have a thriving practice, and are doubtless doing much to alleviate the miseries of the sick. Two drug stores furnish them with material for their medicines. Our old friend, Dr. Robert Cummins, keeps a large and well selected stock of everything in that line, and is doing an extensive business. The striped pole of the barber thrusts itself upon the vision of the passer-by, and the young bloods of the town owe much of their well curled moustaches and glossy locks to the tonsorial skill of Mr. Watson. The irrepressible Chinaman asserts his rights to the patronage of the people, and the shingle of Hung Lee is one of the conspicuous features of the town. The Odd Fellows and the Masqnic orders are fitting up a hall in the upper story of Mr. Spurgeon's store, and will soon organize their respective lodges. Buildings are being erected in every direction, and so great is the demand for lumber, that the proprietors of the lumber yard at Newport find it impossible to supply the demand. Mr. McFadden assured us that out of the 250- BY TELEGRAPH. [SPECIAL TO THE EVENING GAZETTE.] Market Report. San Francisco, Sept. 15. Flour, extra jobbing at $8@6 50.

The city presents a lively appearance on the eve of the State Fair, which commences to-morrow. The streets are crowded with pleasure-seekers and each train brings new accessions of visitors to those already here. The King of Pain and many kindred spirits are holding forth on every street corner, and pool-selling on to-morrow's race is progressing with much spirit: The programme opens with a running trotting race. Work is progressive. The sinking fund of the Bank of California already amounts to between seven and eight millions. Mr. E. J. Baldwin has subscribed one million. This gentleman is not a stockholder. The directors are making progress in straightening the affairs of the bank, yet further time is necessary to provide for bills of exchange and letters of credit in foreign cities. In the meantime, most of the large depositors have agreed to wait for their money, the bank issuing them certificates of credit with 7 per cent interest per annum, payable in 4, 8 or 9 months. The indications are that the bank will be able to re-commence business by the first of October. Fire at Sea KEY WEST, Sept. 14. The steamer Ludan, which left Nassan on the 6th inst., was totally destroyed. The disaster occurred 9 miles from Umbay. All hands took to the boats, in which they took no provisions and under a boiling sun. The fire was probably caused by the spontaneous combustion of old oakum. NEW YORK, Sept. 15. Carl Schurz arrived here to day by steamer Pomonia from Hamburg. MONTREAL, Sept. 14. Mr. Nichols, teller of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, is supposed to have left for New York with his father.

Buildings are being erected in every direction, and so great is the demand for lumber, that the proprietors of the lumber yard at Newport find it impossible to supply the demand. Mr. McFadden assured us that out of the 250,000 feet of lumber brought down by the steamer Newport, there was scarcely a stick left. We shall make a trip through the country near here again, and on our return will endeavor to give you some idea of the rapid progress which is being made in this vicinity. From Friday's Daily. Facts and figures about Irrigating Canals. Eds. GAZETTE:—Having lately read a most valuable article in an Eastern paper, copied from the New York Tribune, on the subject of irrigating canals, and the writer appearing quite conversant with the subject, I shall endeavor to note some of the figures given therein; and for the benefit of the taxpayers of Water Districts Nos.1 and 2, in this county, will compare the same with the figures as given in your paper. Regarding the works in course of construction, in the letter referred to, it is therein stated that "a canal, with a fall of one foot in the thousand, will pass the water 120 feet per minute." According to my calculation, this would be five feet three inches to the mile (without the fraction.) Now, let us examine this fall as compared to our ditch, which, I believe, is about 25 inches to the mile. If water flows 120 feet per minute, with a fall of one foot in the thousand, or five feet three inches in the mile, what rate will it flow where the fall is twenty-five inches per mile? The rate seems to be forty-seven feet and a fraction, computed by the common Rule of Three, but as the velocity of the current is greater in the centre than at the bottom and sides, and as the current is greater in a deep and narrow canal, and the friction less than on one contrary, and as we are lowering the grade from the one foot fall, the current will be more lessened than in proportion; hence, I believe 45 ft will be about the mark. According to what is known of our ditch, the dimensions are 10 feet at the bottom, 14 feet at the top, and 3 feet deep. We may put it thus: 12 feet wide, and SACRAMENTO, Sept. 14. The city presents a lively appearance on the eve of the State Fair, which commences to-morrow. The streets are crowded with pleasure-seekers and each train brings new accessions of visitors to those already here. The King of Pain and many kindred spirits are holding forth on every street corner, and pool-selling on to-morrow's race is progressing with much spirit: The programme opens with a running and trotting race. Work is progressing at the pavillion. It is thought that everything will be in readiness for the opening to-morrow evening. The society has announced a special trotting race for Friday for a purse of $300; three in five to harness. Entries: Sorrel Ned, Teady, McGee, Tony Gates, and Spear. Stock is arriving fast, and a fine exhibition will be made. Racing will commence to-morrow at 2 P.M. The first will be a running race for a stake of $300, for all three-year-old colts, one mile and repeat; entrance 50 per cent. The entries for this race are as follows: Theodore Winters enters a gray colt, by Norfolk, and a bay colt, by Lexington, dam Maganito; Frank Dupoister enters e hie Billy Newell, by Norfolk; R. S. Wording enters Nathan Combs, by Lodi; R. T. Horten enters sorrel colt, Sally Hart, by Montana; James A. Morrith enters Lady Washington, by Woodbine; Win. Hamilton enters Maggie, by Hercules; Richard Harvey enters s.e., by Monday; J A Cardneil enters Coimo, by Spirlock; L. M. Darning enters Don Victor; N. Combes enters Austin, by Lodi. Qwing to the number of entries and the placing of colts, the race is exciting a great deal of interest. Pools were sold at the New Orleans Hotel this evening by Phillip & Company, and a large amount of money was taken in. Winters' gray colt by Norfolk, is the favorite. Military Movements CHERRY CREEK, Nev., Sept. 14. Companies C and D, first cavalry, under command of Col. Lumner, numbering 90 men, arrived early this evening. The officers and men are all well and in good spirits. They leave in the morning for Spring Valley. There is nothing new from Cleave-land. San Diogo News. SAN DIEGO, Sept. 14.

Natebiz,a Plute chief who has been hunting ducks on Big Meadows since the cry of war was raised by Murphy and Cleveland in the Eastern park of the State,and arranged here to-day. When asked if he knew anything about the reported Indian outbreak,near Cherry Creek,the answer that he had been told all about it by Shoshones.He said there was no danger of war,athe Indians did not want to fight.The She-hones had told him that the Indians were not on the war path and that all reports to the contrary were false.“It may be,”said the chiefwho is one of the shrewdest of his tribe,"that some white man want to sell hay and barley and beef,and heap like to have soldiers come and buy them.The heap talk,and make believe Indians want to kill white man,but all a d——lie."

According to what is known of our ditch, the dimensions are 10 feet at the bottom, 14 feet at the top, and 3 feet deep. We may put it thus: 12 feet wide, and 3 feet deep, which means thirty-six square feet of water in every one foot of length. Let us then multiply 36 by 45 feet, this being the length the water will flow in one minute, which gives us 1620 square feet of water moved the 45 feet in one minute. Now, it is well known that after running some six or more miles on the grade spoken of, there will be a necessity of a heavy drop to the lower level of the valley. This valley will slope, so it is said, as much at least as the river does in its natural bed, which, I have been told, is about 15 feet per mile. Thus, there would seem to be a velocity of over 300 feet per minute. Thus, the water, instead of moving at 45 feet, would move at least three hundred feet per minute. The question now arises, what sized ditch, 300 feet long, would contain the water of the last ditch—1620 square feet? It will be seen that a ditch 65 inches wide and twelve inches deep, will contain what the first ditch will be able to discharge. This water will be divided between Districts 1 and 2, being a little less than 400 square inches for each ditch—little over one good irrigating head. Further comment at present is unnecessary. Trusting, however, that those gentlemen, entrusted with the construction of the ditch, will carefully consider the figures laid down, and the results drawn therefrom, and should they prove correct, act accordingly.

Returns from elections in this Territory come in slowly. Arapahoe county elects a majority of the Republican ticket. The Democrats elect one of two councilmen, and one of the four members of the House. They also elected a County Treasurer. Last Fall the county gave over $300 Democratic majority. The result in the Territory is doubtful, both parties claiming the legislators. The Governor has issued a call for an election on the 25th of October for members of the Constitutional Convention which will meet on the 20th of December. The Republicans claim that they will have a good majority in the Convention. Rebury. BOSTON, Sept. 15.
