EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
GOSPEL SWAMP.
The pride and wealth of Gospel Swamp is its corn. The moist, rich land of this section makes it peculiarly adapted to the raising of this crop, and on either hand are large fields producing immense crops. It is estimated that over 200,000 bushels will be shipped from this section during the year. A neat school house has been erected here with ample accommodations. The principal trading post is the store of Mr. J. M. Brown, who keeps a good assortment of the necessaries and luxuries of life.
SANTA ANA.
This town has already been described to you. Near it are some beautiful orchards and farms. Mr. Birch has been remarkably successful in the raising of trees and vines, and his orchard presents many specimens of marvelous growths. The farm of Mr. N. O. Stafford presents an attractive appearance. He has been successful in the raising of peach, cherry, apple and other trees, and his peculiar mode of culture is worthy of note. He does not trim his trees, but allows the shoots to come up from the bottom, which he claims protects and shelters the fruit. His vineyard has been remarkably productive, and he has a great variety of luscious grapes: One variety we noticed is a stranger in this county. It is called the Parsley leafed variety, from the peculiar shape of its leaf. It produces a white grape of a most elegant flavor. Mr. Stafford poses of circulation, and have no other medium or exchange, but shall our medium of exchange represent actual or fictitious values? The necessities causing the origin of a circulating medium cannot fail to make the question plain.
At first, all exchanges were a kind of barter; as is now the custom in new countries, where money is scarce. The effort was, and always is, to reduce the medium of exchange to the smallest bulk, and to employ that which has most constant value.
The metals of course soon came to be adopted, for they had just the qualities needed for a circulating medium. The value of a horse or a mule might vary, and not every one would be a judge, but the metals were constant in value, and could be ineffacibly marked, not by an official stamp alone, but by a sign indicating actual market value.
But even gold is unwieldy. In San Francisco many teams were required to transfer gold drawn out of the banks at the late run. The next natural step was to substitute personal or corporate or national obligations. Now, these all should have one invariable quality. They should represent actual value always accessible to the holder. This may be gold, or real estate, or any other property, only that the value is actually secured. Of course, until the quantity of coin equals business necessities, it will be impossible for the banks or the national treasury to represent, in bank note issues, only gold. But these issues can and ought always to represent some kind of property. There is another quality pertaining to a circulating medium, which ought never to be lost sight of.

It is called the Parsley leafed variety, from the peculiar shape of its leaf. It produces a white grape of a most elegant flavor. Mr. Stafford does not confine his attention entirely to the cultivation of trees and vines, but has some splendid specimens of thorough-bred cattle and horses. We were much pleased with a yearling colt for which he has refused fifteen hundred dollars.
TUSTIN CITY
Vies with its sister settlement in growth and improvements. Mr. Freeman has a neat blacksmithing establishment and turns out all kinds of work in his line in good shape. Mr. L. Utt is the store-keeper and postmaster of this section. A large two-story store is being erected by Mr. Tustin. It is a fine building, and will be an ornament and credit to the town. The neat little school-house is at present used for both school and church purposes. The school is at present under the charge of Miss Yda Addis, of Los Angeles. Large crops of corn and castor beans are raised in this section without irrigation, and the trees and vines are as thrifty as in any part of the county. Building is going on In every direction and tasty residences will soon be dotted over this entire section.
A STATEMENT showing the estimated annual production of gold and silver in the United States during the twenty-five years from 1849 to 1873 has been prepared by the Bureau of Statistics. The annual average production of gold, according to this statement, is $50,600,000—and that of silver for fifteen years, from 1839 to 1873, $13,300,000. The highest annual production of silver given was in 1873, when it was $35,750,000. The production of gold has, with the exception of one year, been annually increasing since 1856, and the production of silver has, with the exception of one year, been increasing since 1850—the production of gold and silver in 1873 being almost the same.

CALIFORNIA FAILURES AND INFLATION.
LOCAL DEVELOPMENTS.
It takes some time for settlers to learn where they are when they have pitched camp in a new country. Not that they have lost latitude or longitude, or have forgotten the way home, but it seems one of the last items to be comprehended is that they live here, and not in the place from which they came. The process of weaning is slow, but very important, so far as the welfare of the new country is concerned. New comers always take the same degree of interest in the town or county from which they came, as before leaving, and read the local papers of that region with the same thoroughness as before. Every item, from the burning of a barn to a dog fight, is scrutinized as carefully as if the sale of this year's crop of barley or corn depended upon any other property, only that the value is actually secured. Of course, until the quantity of coin equals business necessities, it will be impossible for the banks or the national treasury to represent, in bank note issues, only gold. But these issues can and ought always to represent some kind of property. There is another quality pertaining to a circulating medium, which ought never to be lost sight of. No force of law or trade should compel any one to receive representatives of value unless he choose—to do so. Of course exigencies of the State, for example, as a war measure, may demand that certain issues be made legal tender, but even then security by actual values should be ample. What the public want, what is needed in business, is a currency or medium of exchange, which is either actual value itself like gold or silver, or which is amply secured, and which can by no possible condition of affairs change in value. A gold note is as good as the gold itself. A greenback would be if it were a promise to pay in gold. So long as there is not gold enough to represent dollar for dollar of the paper circulation, then other values should be substituted for gold. The issues then would be more like bonds, and should bear interest which should be payable in gold. Bills drawing no interest, secured by such bonds, or by gold, would be satisfactory, provided that the value used be accessible on demand. No system can be devised which will prevent banks from failure, and that banks or brokers fail forms no item in the question of gold or something less substantial as a basis for currency.

CALIFORNIA FAILURES AND INFLATION.
The folly of inflationists can not be better shown than in their very strange comments on the recent failure of the Bank of California. Some of the Eastern papers show this folly so plainly that it is not difficult to discover the filmsy support of rug money schemes. Their argument is something like this, "The Bank of California in a gold producing and gold paying State, was unable to supply gold in sufficient quantities to satisfy a run. Hence gold should be supplanted by paper money, made legal tender by law." This of course will always secure everywhere full treasuries, for it is less expensive to manufacture paper money than coin. Such arguments do not touch the question of a gold or a legal tender basis for our currency. That system of currency which will prevent failures is impossible. The two things are utterly and forever separate. Failures may be precipitated by decreased credit, or by a state of feverish excitement attending certain financial conditions, or changes. But the basis on which currency shall rest, has nothing to do with the wisdom or fally of certain bank operations. If the officers of a bank use its funds for speculation, or for investment; if they in any way cripple their institution so that its legitimate work cannot go on, they may expect a failure.
In the discussion of the currency question there is no need to introduce other items, or to substitute other problems. The great question is not shall we have gold enough for the pur-
and not in the place from which they came. The process of weaning is slow, but very important, so far as the welfare of the new country is concerned. New comers always take the same degree of interest in the town or county from which they came, as before leaving, and read the local papers of that region with the same thoroughness as before. Every item, from the burning of a barn to a dog flight, is scrutinized as carefully as if the sale of this year's crop of barley or corn depended upon their familiarity with the local items of their former home. No man should forget his native land, and its welfare and progress should always be a thing of joy to him. But a far greater claim rests upon him to care for, and become deeply interested in the land of his adoption. When, for example, a man emigrates to California, comes to this county, and locates near this centre, his first interest and his first effort should be to develop this centre, this county, this State, in all those directions which shall tend to widest general, and consequently, highest individual prosperity.
The true way to develop a State, is for the people of each locality to develop it, just as the proverb has it, that the streets of Jerusalem were kept clean by "every man keeping the part before his own door clean."
In carrying on the work of local development, all cannot do the same thing; some must do one thing and some another. The home manufacturer should be patronized; the home trader visited; the home paper should be subscribed for and read. The best result does not come from the mere item of profit each department may secure, but in the courage engendered which leads to extended investment.
For example, home patronage enlarges factories, increases the assortment of a stock of goods, brings a weekly paper to a daily, and adds in making that daily first-class. Any man can do a hundred per cent better when he knows that the people of his home
sustain him. The merchant will be more accommodating; the manufacturer will produce better goods; the editor will write better articles; the preacher give better sermons. So, let the people imitate the men of olden time, who, long before railroads or telegraph, understood how to succeed as communities. "They helped everyone his neighbor, and everyone said to his brother, Be of good courage. So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smoothed with the hammer him that smote the anvil." And we may suppose, if printing had been invented, it would have been added, "everybody encouraged the editor, and subscribed for the local paper."
VOTE FOR GOVERNOR.
The full returns of the vote for Governor, which will probably be but slightly changed by the official vote, stands as follows:
Irwin.....61,525
Phelps.....30,922
Bidwell.....20,030
Thus Irwin has a majority of 973 votes over both of his competitors.

All that could be ascertained of the crime at the time, was that a mail pouch, containing gold dust, greenbacks and drafts had mysteriously disappeared. Soon after, Smith the driver, left the country, taking with him the wife of another man. He had been discharged from his situation for upsetting a coach. This was subsequently ascertained to have been premeditated on his part as a pretext for securing his discharge and leaving the country. It appeared that Smith stole the mail pouch, carried it for three or four days in his feed sack, rifled it soon after, filled it with rocks and then threw it in the Umpqua River. A search brought it to the surface, and when opened it was found to contain all the missing documents. The roll of greenbacks and a bag containing gold dust to the value of $4,000 dollars was missing. This it was afterwards ascertained, the robber sold in Philadelphia, Pa. Smith and his paramour were traced to this city; Salt Lake and Philadelphia. After several months pursuit they were finally captured at Sequain, Gaudupe county, Texas. Sheriff Underwood will arrive here with his prisoner this evening.

Governor Ames' Tolegram.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.
The following is the text of a telegram from Governor Ames to the Attorney-General, relating to affairs in Mississippi, which was to-day made public:
JACKSON, Miss., Sept. 20.
To Attorney-General Pierpont: The necessity which called forth my dispatch of the 8th inst. to the President still exists. Your question of yesterday, repeated to-day, asks for information which I gladly give. Violence was lent to the political contest preceding the coming election unfortunately introducing the question of race, which has been prominent at the South since the war. It has since assumed magnified importance. At this time, in certain localities, in fact, the race feeling is so intense that protection of the colored people by white organizations is despaired of. The political contest which is made on the "white line," forbids it. The history of the colored people since reconstruction and its bearing on the situation at this time, and a detailed statement of the troubles here cannot be condensed in a telegram. The State has been opposed to organizing a militia of colored men. It has been believed by them that it would develop a war of races, which would extend beyond the borders of this State. The organization of whites alone, where the issue is one of race, would be equally ineffectual, and a more complete protection would be found in the strict non-interference of the whites. Contradictions will be numerous. So they were in December last, but the report of the Congressional Committee proved the correctness of my assertions. I am aware of the reluctance of the people of the country to tolerate National interference in State affairs, though, if there be no violation of law, there can be no interference. Permit me to express hope that the oudom of such an interference shall not attach to President Grant or the Republican party. As Governor of the State, I make a demand which cannot well be refused. Let the odium in all its magnitude descend upon me. I cannot escape the consciousness that the discharge of my duty towards a class of American citizens, whose only offence consists in their color, demand it. I am powerless to protect them.

A Madrid telegram says the papal nuncio has asked for an exhibition of legal proceedings against Bishops in virtue of provision of concordate. It is said the government has determined to pursue an energetic course with regard to the circulation of papal nuncios, and will fully maintain the royal prerogative in the premises.

State Prison Trains.
CARSON, Nev., Sept. 22.
There is considerable talk here today about the State Prison affairs. Serious charges are again made against the warden, Col H.C.Hyman. A lengthy letter from Governor Bradley, at Elko, appeared in to-day's Virginia Enterprise, and is copied by the Carson Tribune, making charges which will no doubt cause the Board of State Prison Commissioners to demand a full and explicit statement of all affairs in connection with the State prison. There seems to be doubts that the Governor wrote the letter above referred to. Further documents are anxiously looked for.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24.
Last evening about 8 o'clock a difficulty occurred between Bill Butler, proprietor of a saloon on Fourth and Townsend streets, and George Florence, a hackman, during which Butler fired four or five shots at his antagonist, wounding him once in the arm. Butler declares Florence's hack had been standing in front of his saloon for an hour or two, unhitched, and he went out for the purpose of tying the horses to a hitching post, when Florence told him to let them alone, accompanying the threats with profane expletives. He entered his saloon where he was followed by Florence, who threw a beer glass at him and afterward reentered with cobble-stones, which he threw at him. Receiving such provocations he said he clasping one of her ankles, simultaneously stoops from the bar and clutches her foot. His feet failed to catch and both fell head first to the floor below; triking heavily. They were picked up uneconscious. The full extent of their injuries is not yet ascertained. One of the woman's legs are broken, and both are injured internally.

Receiving such provocations he said he went behind his bar and got his revolver, and fired. He is charged with assault to murder.

Cole, W. H. Grayton, J. M. Tewksbury, A. M. Ebets, Louis H. Bonesteel, and A. B. Perkins, the full Board of Directors and Louis R. Lull, Secretary. Hon. J. B.

A Herald special from White River; Neb., Sept. 22, via Fort Laramie says that the Commissioners had no talk with the Indians yet. The Commissioners were delaying the council in deference to Spotted Tail, who was holding a pow-wow with his people. The conclusion to be arrived at is very doubtful. The patience of the Commissioners is nearly exhausted, and they will abandon negotiations if not successful. The jealousy among the chiefs seem to be insurmountable. The Indians seem to be disappointed at not receiving presents. Generals Torry and Beavis think the omission of not giving presents is responsible for the failure to make terms.
A Herald special from Paris says it is announced that the Prince Imperial will soon make a trip around the world. The reason alleged for the Prince's undertaking is that it is necessary for the completion of his education. It is believed, however, that the real purpose is to prevent the Bonapartists from taking any premature steps for the restoration of the dynasty in the present state of the public mind.
