SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 6. Eds. Gazette: Perhaps a few words from this section might be of interest to some of your readers. There are of course many things which are interesting transpiring in such a busy region, and there are many objects of attraction to all who have been so long in the rural districts, as has your correspondent; but as in the case of the Queen of Sheba, who said when she saw the wisdom, and greatness, and wealth, and magnificence of Solomon, "the one-half had not been told her." So the fullest and most elaborate description of this wonderful metropolis will not reach the half, nor the hundredth part, of the story. Most of your readers have seen this city, and know something of its wonderful growth, and of the immense trade centering here. They are familiar with its general appearance and streets, so I will limit myself to a reference to some of the newer objects of interest. As you have learned by telegraph or by your exchanges the last thing is the magnificent structure, known as THE NEVADA BANK. This edifice is not entirely complete, BEAR AND HOLCOMB WAVE DESERT Eds.

The Los Angeles and Independence railroad will be opened, though not formally, to the public about the 17th inst. Col. Crawford has now twelve platform cars put together and ready to carry freight. There is slight delay in the reception of the passenger cars, but temporary ones will be prepared for the use of the public at the earliest moment. Connection will be made with the passengers of the Senator, which sails from San Francisco on the 15th inst., the cars coming as far as Figuerona and Jefferson streets. This early opening of the road is done at the urgent rooquet of the traveling public.—Express. The Pacific Coast Wine and Liquor Herald has objected to the election of Professor Carr, Republican candidate for State Superintendent of Public Instruction, for the reason that his wife, "Mrs. Dr. Carr," was an active advocate of the Local Option Bill, and that he favors a compulsory temperance law. These are two mistakes; the "Mrs. Dr. Carr" referred to is not Jeanne C. Carr, the wife of Professor E. S. Carr, and he does not demand temperance by compulsion. The Pacific Turner Bund, which is opposed to sumptuary laws and represents the predominant sentiment among the Germans, after inquiring, advised its members to vote for Carr. Queen Victoria has authorized the following reply to a request that drive over some of the esque road it was ever our Miss H — went into ceiland old forests of pine timber-squirrel made its fine sport it was to phe topmost limbs with About half-way we crowned "Green Lead," gmens, visited the desecabins, and enjoyed to its wild scenery, while man out of that locality, called which the Doctor had lau-ly purchased from... QUEEN VICTORIA has authorized the following reply to a request that she become Patron of the Church of England Temperance Society: "Her majesty has already expressed her opinion in favor of the objects which the society desires to promote, and consents to become Patron of it, organized as it appears to be on a basis which includes all who advocate temperance without insisting necessarily on total abstinence. The Queen trusts that education and the enlightenment of the people, together with the improvement of their moral and physical condition, will gradually do much to induce temperance and diminish the evils complained of." THE Board of Trustees of the city of San Diego recently appropriated four thousand dollars for the purpose of defraying the expense of sending some person to Washington during the coming session of Congress, to look after the railroad interests of that city and to lend his aid to the managers of the Texas and Pacific Railroad. Mr. David Falsenheld, the gentleman who attended the last session of Congress in the interest of San Diego, was again fixed upon to be the representative of the city. The citizens held a meeting the other night and ratified the action of the Trustees in making the appropriation, although, as was to be expected, there were several malcontents present, who denied the right of the Trustees to make the appropriation. THE PALACE HOTEL Is rapidly approaching completion, and is indeed a palace. Those seven stories seem to tempt the earthquakes to do their worst. It is a matter of debate whether one would prefer being in the upper story or on the ground floor, in case the earth did heave. By the way, we did have quite a perceptible shaking of the everlasting hills. Two distinct thumps came. The direction seemed perpendicular rather than lateral, and there was no apparent motion. No damage was done, only we are all politely informed that we live in an earthquake country. THE MECHANICS' FAIR Has been the great center of interest and place of resort. The exhibition this year is exceedingly fine and extensive. The home products, both agricultural and mechanical, present abundant evidence of the immense resources of our State. There is a wonderful development of power to meet the necessities of our new and unique situation. The exhibition of paintings and drawings was excellent. Some very beautiful pictures were on exhibition. The handwork of the students of the public schools shows great skill and proves that while we are in advance of the world in mechanical affairs, that we shall not be behind in what is called the fine arts. The exhibition of photographs shows how perfect is our atmosphere. These works of art can only be equalled in Italy; for only there can the superior charms of our atmosphere be equalled. San Francisco is a wonder, and is in itself a huge fair, being quite as interesting and far more varied than any single gathering can be. I must not forget to mention the beautiful garden arranged in connection with the fair, nor the fine array of flowers and fruit. Among other wonders was the defunct grape vine from Santa Barbara, being a foot in diameter. Its death is a calamity but it has reached the full age of mankind—three score and ten years. It is to be sent to the Centennial as a sample of what will be the size of all the grape vines in Southern California when eighty years have passed. This last statement is sufficiently large to form a suitable peroration, so I will bid you good-bye.

EDS. GAZETTE:—Those that have never seen this interesting part of Southern California, missed quite a treat by not accompanying the Orange pleasure party. The party consisted of thirteen merry souls, all bent on mischief and a good time generally. In due time we reached and passed the flourishing towns of Riverside and San Bernardino, and the second night-out camped at Martin Station. It was here for the first time that each one felt the great undertaking they had shouldered. Here, as it were, civilization ceased. We learned that Senior Martin had resided at this place 21 years. Whoop! la! all aboard; off we go up the Cajon Pass; beautiful scenery. The ladies prefer walking, so as to be better able to scan the rocks, in hope of finding a bushel or so of gold. The Doctor's enormous brogans prove to be a source of merriment for the rest, but quite the reverse to himself. Hello! Tollgate. The Mrs. appears. We feel like singing that good old song, "Mr., give me just one penny," but gracious, she calls for one hundred such pieces. This creates a sadness; can't buy any nice cakes or fruit for the ladies at the restaurants along the desert; sadness disappears by the Dr. observing something in the shape of a Speechman. Reached the summit; there lying before passed through the noted Rabbit Spring station. Thenes homeward stopping at Corum's ranch, visiting the large vineyard at Cucamonga, meeting the gentlemanly proprietor, Mr. Dreyfus, and partook of his new and old wines. Stopped at Spadra, where we partied with a portion of the party and where sadness overshadowed the whole number. Thence to Orange through a gale of wind and dust, feeling richly repaid for our long trip. A LOS PIES DE V. BY TELEGRAPH. [SPECIAL TO THE EVENING GAZETTE.] San Francisco News.

The body of a young woman was found floating in the bay yesterday, among the slips at the foot of Second and Townsend streets, and was soon identified as that of Mrs. Margaret Cook, wife of Alexander Cook, carriage manufacturer. Coroner Swan held an inquest at the residence, 443 Braunan Street. It appears that deceased was 25 years of age.

Hello! Tollgate. The Mrs. appears. We feel like singing that good old song, 'Mr., give me just one penny,' but gracious, she calls for one hundred such pieces. This creates a sadness; can't buy any nice cakes or fruit for the ladies at the restaurants along the desert; sadness disappears by the Dr. observing something in the shape of a Speoherman. Reached the summit; there lying before us, spreads the great arm of the Mohave desert. Sixteen miles to the first water. It all being down grade, we reached river station so early in the afternoon that we concluded to expedite matters by going further. After getting the direction from several persons—all giving us a different direction and distance—we struck a balance and decided it was twelve miles to Cox's Ranch. Our captain, Shrewsbury, had not yet overtaken us, and as the above ranch was spoken of as being an excellent hunting ground we concluded to go that far and spend the time in raking in game, until our "Moses" arrived. Oh! yea twelve miles. Night overtook us on top of a huge hill, and necessity compelled us to make a dry camp. Our cavalry had pushed on further and failed to get back to camp that night, so it was spent in rustless slumber, especially by the ladies, who could imagine all kinds of horrible adventures for the absent Hayward and Titus. At dawn of day Mrs. L—proved to possess the waterwitchcraft sufficient to find a nice little stream down in a gulch and once more there was happiness in camp. At ten o'clock we again took up the line of march, and arrived at the ranch late in the afternoon. Instead of twelve miles the distance was variously estimated at from twenty to forty miles by our civil engineers. This ranch derived its name from a gentleman by the singular name of Cox, who, many years ago, took a squatters' claim here, but long since deserted it. However, it's a beautiful little spot, surrounded by grand old pines and rugged mountains, but too cold and high for agricultural purposes. Here our captain overtook us, and we were extremely happy when he took command, knowing that we would no more take chances on anything, especially water. Game was very scarce; some two hundred Plute Indians had traversed the whole country, and short picking it was behind that band. Sacramento News. SACRAMENTO Oct. 8. About 10 o'clock this morning W. Henden, formerly foreman of the brick layers on the State Capitol, met with an accident. He was engaged in repairing the brick building on K street when he fell head first a distance of 15 feet into a pile of bricks which stood below, cutting his head and nose and breaking his shoulder blade in three places. His left breast was staved in, several ribs broken and the flesh torn from his jaws. The wounds are pronounced dangerous but not necessarily fatal. It is thought several internal injuries have been received. Several crates, containing 150,000 salmon eggs, arrived here this morning from the Government fishery on McCloud river. Two crates have been shipped south to Kern river and the rest to Truckee to be hatched. Solids. SANTA CLARA, Oct. 8. A man named Wright killed himself here this morning. Some time ago he lost a child. NEW YORK, Oct. 9. Wm. L. Howe, a well known Tombs lawyer, has filed a petition in bankruptcy. The list of creditors is quite large. His debts approximate $150,-000, and as far as shown he has no assets. In reply to an invitation to advance the Republican cause and ticket in the present canvass, Hon. Reuben E. Fenton has written a letter to chairman Cornell, of the Republican State Convention. He felt it his duty to give his support to the Republican Convention candidates. He says the Republican Platform, adopted at Saratoga, is in harmony with the principles advocated by the liberals.

Miss H—went into ecstacy over the grand old forests of pine and fir. The timber-squirrel made its appearance, and fine sport it was to pick them off the topmost limbs with our Henrys. About half-way we crossed the renowned "Green Lead," gathered specimens, visited the deserted miners' cabins, and enjoyed to its utmost the wild scenery, while masticating the nut of that locality, called pifon, of which the Doctor had layed in a supply, purchased from an old Paule squaw. Holoomb valley is an interesting locality. The various player diggings speak volumes of exciting times long passed. While at the five-stamp mill Mr. Regan pointed out many interesting places, one an octagon house, where many miners and roughs lost their lives and money, seven having been killed on one Saturday night. Here we found excellent water. Mr. R. informed us that the mill would begin operations again in about three weeks. From here to Bear Valley is quite a descent; but it is useless for me to describe the scenery even if I could. To be appreciated it must be seen. The trees are literally covered with large and beautiful litchens. Arriving in Bear Valley we camped at its extreme west end. Here we found wild duck and enjoyed the meat thereof. Our camp was located in a grove of grand old Tamarisk. This whole country is one mighty forest, and surely the day is not distant when railroads will penetrate these hills and lumber will be sold at 20 per cent below present prices. Delicious trout from the head waters on the Santa Ana supplied our plates. We started for Gold Mountain, situated at the extreme eastern end of the valley. We visited the tunnels and penetrated 600 feet into that famous hill. Holi for home, leaving Gold Mountain City with its enormous forty stamp mill, together with a seven mile flume, tunnels, etc., costing the company $350,000, also the numerous vacated dwellings, saloons and store buildings. Winding around the snake-like road, cut in the mountainside, at sundown we reached Cashinburg. The proprietor welcomed us and our jaded horses. Hay being only $60 per ton we cared not for expenses. Entering the Mohave once more we present canvass, Hon. Reuben E. Fenton has written a letter to chairman Cornell, of the Republican State Convention. He felt it his duty to give his support to the Republican Convention candidates. He says the Republican Platform, adopted at Saratoga, is in harmony with the principles advocated by the liberals. He believes the Republicans are more in harmony with the Independent voters than the Democrats, and that the success of the Democrats in this State would lead to dangerous influences. He pronounces himself in favor of the Republican candidate in the present caucus, trusting that the advanced position now assumed by the Republican party will lead to permanent progress and reform.

Picoche Amusements, Picoche, Nev., Oct. 10. Last evening, George Davis, an auctioneer, shot and it is supposed fatally wounded Casher D. Larkin. Three shots were fired by Davis, each taking effect. Two of the balls entered Larkin's back in the region of the spinal column and the third in his right leg. Larkin is a native of Pennsylvania, aged about 23 years. Little hope is entertained of his recovery. A duel with pistols was about being attempted yesterday on Lacour street, between two Irishmen, but the officers hearing of it, came to hand and quickly nipped it in the bud. Tom Andrews, foreman of the Raymond and Ely mine, yesterday fall down a chute forty feet and broke one GAZETTE NO. 52 leg in two places. Fortunately his fall was arrested at that depth by some obstruction in the chute, otherwise he would have fallen to the bottom, a depth of 116 feet. An Athlete's Contest. EUREKA, Nev., Oct. 10. The lifting match between Alf. Charte of Eureka, and Ned Brannan of Virginia City, came off last night. The contest consisted of lifting up at arm's length a 100 pound dumb bell and also raising it the greatest number of times. When Charte raised the bell 1030 times he dropped his arm and declared that his highest figure had been reached. Brannan was at this time about 20 behind, but he soon attained the winning point and kept on until he reached 1154, when there being no further object in continuing his exertions, he dropped his weight and was declared winner. The Herald on the Ohio Election. New York, Oct. 11. Let the election go on to-morrow as it may, inflation is dead as a special issue in our politics. It has become of little consequence whether Allen is elected or not. The Presidential election will not be fought on the currency question. The Herald, editorially, reviewing the prospects of the election to-morrow, says the effort of the Ohio platform has been to enlist republicans. the mother, said that by the will of Jacob Blumenburg, Mrs. Blumenburg is appointed administrator and guardian of the three children. He thought it would be well to send the girls back to the convent until the appointment of special administrator was settled. Judge Myrick said it appeared to him, in view of the character of Miss Blumenburg, the appointment of some good, substantial citizen, to act as her guardian was necessary. He took the matter under advisement until today. The programme for a magnificent banquet in honor of General Sheridan is in the hands of a committee of prominent citizens. The dinner, which is expected to surpass any thing of the kind ever spread in this State, will be given in the grand dining room of the Palace Hotel on Thursday evening. The great central court will be illuminated in the evening, and the splendid band of the Fourth United States Artillery regiment will furnish music for the occasion. It is also understood that the spacious banquet hall will be still further embellished by the names worked in evergreens, of Winchester, Five Forks, Mission Ridge and other great battles of the war in which the General distinguished himself. Dr. Flattery's libel suit against Marriot, of the News Letter, was tried yesterday. After an amusing prelim- The Harald on the Ohio Election. New York, Oct. 11. Let the election go on to-morrow as it may, inflation is dead as a special issue in our politics. It has become of little consequence whether Allen is elected or not. The Presidential election will not be fought on the currency question. The Herald, editorially, reviewing the prospects of the election to-morrow, says the effort of the Ohio platform has been to enlist republican's party feelings on the side of good money. Within the last ten days Ohio democrats have essentially changed their position, and now they are morally contractionists and not inflatationists. Extra Pay. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 11.

However this may be, they say nothing to that effect themselves, being in fact very uncommunicative on the subject of their visit. Killed Himself. NEVADA CITY, Cal., Oct. 11.

At the Supervisors' meeting last evening, the committee on Health and Police, to whom was referred the application of the Immigrant Bureau, reported that there is no legal authority by which the board can make any appropriation for the assistance of the said bureau; that the only fund out of which the board can render any assistance is the Urgent Necessity Fund, which has already been exhausted for the fiscal year, ending June 30th, 1878. In the opinion of the committee, the bureau can properly seek Legislative relief. No action was had on the report. Miss Susie Blumenburg, who distinguished herself in the Blumenburg case, by relating the story of her mother's shameful conduct, was heard in the Probate Court yesterday with her counsel Mr. Kinnley.

Joseph Lime, an old French resident of this place, committed suicide this afternoon by taking strychnine. He had been drinking heavily, and that is assigned as the reason for the committal of the rash act. LONDON, Oct. 12. The Prince of Wales embarked on his Indian voyage last evening. He was accompanied as far as Calais by the Princess Alexandria. A dispatch from Bio Janelro, via Lisbon, reports that a commercial crisis exists in that city. Great commercial oppression prevails throughout the country. The Peruvian Government have decided to issue forced currency to meet the emergency. Numerous failures may be looked for. Latest advice from Liberia state that the war between the liberals and the aborigines is being conducted with the utmost vigor. Five engagements have taken place at Cape Holmas, between a large force of natives and troops, in all of which the liberals were victorious, inflicting slaughter on their enemy. PARIS, Oct. 12. President McMahon and Lord Lyons met the Prince of Wales on his arrival at the city, en route for India. They don't appear to want a water district in Orange. At the election yesterday only eight votes were polled in favor of creating a district, and one hundred and also votes against.
