SATURDAY...JAN. 1, 1875. BY RAILROAD TO SALT LAKE Some time ago the Gazette, in an article on "The Future of Los Angeles County," sought to emphasize the importance of an outlet from this valley eastward, via Salt Lake City. We are glad to chronicle the fact that decided steps have been taken by capitalists of this State for the construction of such a railroad; and we cannot refrain from adding a word to arouse, if possible, the interest of the people of this county, and to strengthen the judgment, that this work is essential to our prosperity, and that every business man, every farmer, every resident, is personally and financially interested in this project. To build a railroad, we all know, requires immense capital. Now, if men having capital are willing to invest it, surely the people of the region most benefitted ought to come forward at once and contribute liberally to the enterprise. The decrease of distance, from Eastern centers, of 600 miles, cannot be over estimated as an element of prosperity to a country bringing many of its supplies from those distant points. We are not only brought nearer the manufactures and centers of commerce in the East, but we are just so much nearer the markets in which to dispose of our own fruits and manufactured articles; one-fifth of the whole distance to New York City saved. Let the merchants of this valley, who would be glad to buy goods in New York City or in Chicago, but do not because of the long distance hither, realize the positive advantage of this road; let the fruit growers and the farmers realize the extent of teri- HAPPY NEW YEAR. This expressive wish has been uttered a great many times. Sometimes in careless sport, or in the mere routine of fashionable life; but we honestly believe it has been many more times uttered in deep feeling, with some degree of realization of all that is included in a launch upon the uncertain waters of a new year. Though many such wishes have come to naught, and the new years have not been happy to all of those who entered upon their employments with zeal and hope, still we repeat the wish, and, were it in our power, we would decree a world of happiness to every reader of the Gazette. But this is beyond the ability of our generous heart. Happiness is to be secured very much like the breakfast of the birds—each one must pick it up for himself. There are many monopolies in the world, which curse every branch of business or trade they touch, but, thank God, no one can monopolize happiness. Nor is it to be found only in those surroundings which money can provide. This blessed boon can be obtained everywhere, for it is a condition rather than a possession. The world is full of happy pictures. Upon these men may look and learn how to be happy. Among no class of beings does there seem to be so much of what we may properly call happiness, as the domestic animals. Of course in this view, those must be left out of account, which are the objects of human cruelty. The sturdy ox as he stands under the shade of a tree, with his feet in a gently flowing stream, and lazily brushes away the flies, chewing his cud, is a very picture of happiness. The cat or dog, curled up in some sunny corner after a bountiful dinner, look as though their dreams must be sweet, and they as happy, shall we say as Kings—no, for Kings are not as Let the merchants of this valley, who would be glad to buy goods in New York City or in Chicago, but do not because of the long distance hither, realize the positive advantage of this road; let the fruit growers and the farmers realize the extent of territory that will be opened for their produce. This is to be the largest orange, lemon, lime, and other semi-tropical fruit region in the United States, and when the millions of trees now planted come to maturity we want the whole north-west, with the centers of St. Louis, Chicago, St. Paul, and Cincinnati as distributing points, as the market for these luscious productions, which we alone can raise. This road makes this county, and indeed this end of the State, entirely independent of San Francisco. Not that we shall need to ignore that city. It will still be a great market for us, and from it many of our goods will come; but we are in communication with other cities as well, and this will have a tendency to increase the prices of our own productions, while it will decrease, by competition, the cost of what we are obliged to purchase. Besides, consider what we gain in time in our connection with the East both in regard to mails and in journeying to and fro—nearly three days time saved. The cars from Salt Lake will arrive at Los Angeles on the Independence Road by the same time the train on the Central Pacific road reaches Reno, thus saving the remaining two hundred miles of railroad travel, and the four hundred miles either by railroad or by steamer from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Consider what effect this item will have upon the minds of Eastern people of wealth, who desire to winter in our delightful climate—six hundred miles saved and no sea-sickness! Why, we should have crowding upon us the same multitudes which now fill the cities and villages of Florida. Forty thousand people go to Florida every winter, because it is near, and one of the worst features they have to contend with is the sea voyage down. With this road we would draw many who now go to Florida. It will not cost as much to go from Los Angeles to New York as it does from San Francisco. Then in regard to immigration: This road course in this view, those must be left out of account, which are the objects of human cruelty. The sturdy ox as he stands under the shade of a tree, with his feet in a gently flowing stream, and lazily brushes away the flies, chewing his cud, is a very picture of happiness. The cat or dog, curled up in some sunny corner after a bountiful dinner, look as though their dreams must be sweet, and they as happy, shall we say as Kings—no, for Kings are not happy as these our dumb friends—but we may say as happy as is possible for dog or cat to be. To be filled is a vast amount of joy. The motherly old hen as she caws and scratches and clucks about the yard seems to be enjoying herself hugely. The lambs and calves and colts, as they jump and run and frisk about surely must be happy. The birds as they carol forth their sweet morning and evening song, are so blithe and merry, that one can easily imagine they have reached the acme of joy. So all nature teems with continued happiness. And what is the secret of it all? It is simply a limited ambition, and a perfect contentment with whatever condition comes. Yet men cannot curb ambition, men cannot compass ambition, men cannot be filled. Must it be then that men cannot be happy? Surely not. That man who in conscious integrity does his level best to accomplish his noble plans, whether they be great or small, can sit down at the end of the struggle, and be happy, whether he has reached the success he craved or not, for the pith and narrow of happiness is upright and virtuous contentment. We now enter a new year. Will it not prove wise in the end, if we not only aim to be happy by walking in virtuous paths but that we seek to render the wishes we to-day so freely express, worth something, during all the year, by making others as happy as possible. This is one of the purposes of the GAZETTE, and while we most heartily wish all its readers a successful and happy New Year, it is determined to do what it can to increase personal and community happiness by its daily visitations, bringing news, suggestions, and pleasure to all; who peruse its columns: and, that it may do this, it bespeaks the hearty support of all, who can increase its circle of acquaintance, or who can in any way assist in making the GAZETTE the most popular The Virginia is some attention to its opposed paying for usual daily papers; room for one sententious man who can get into a daily paper special notice. He helps represent that goes crazy or reform." Says a scientist wine crop of France fill a ditch three a third and a half feet 000 miles long." You were a ditch?

Forty thousand people go to Florida every winter, because it is near, and one of the worst features they have to contend with is the sea voyage down. With this road we would draw many who now go to Florida. It will not cost as much to go from Los Angeles to New York as it does from San Francisco. Then in regard to immigration: This road saves the adverse influence of runners for northern sections, who by various means, turn many who would settle with us into other regions. If any one with half an eye to the main chance will sit down and contemplate the advantages of this road to this county and to this part of the State, these benefits will so multiply in number and so grow in magnitude that he will hardly be able to resist the sound conclusion that the road must be built, and that he will do all he can to secure its construction. The immigration to the United States during the last fiscal year numbered 227,498. This is a falling off of 85,841, compared with the previous year, and of 182,305, compared with 1872-8. The decline in two years is slightly over one-half. The Chief of the Bureau of Statistics, Dr. Young, gives, as the principal reason for this decline, the general prostration of business in this country since 1873, which has caused a diminution in the demand for labor. The heaviest decline is in the immigration from Germany, Austria, and Continental nationalities; the arrivals from these countries being less than one-third the number arriving thence two years ago. This is attributed partly to the great efforts made by those governments to discourage the emigration of their people. REPRESENTATIVE LUTTRELL has submitted to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue the bill drafted by the California Wine Growers' Association for the relief of native brandy distillers, and has invited his approval or suggestions concerning it. The Commissioner will examine the subject and probably advise some modification. In a recent interview with Page he said he saw no chance for relief under the present law, but was disposed to recommend some system of bonded warehouses in the manufacturing districts which would remedy the chief evil experienced. Sargent is also urging attention to this matter. THE San Luis Obispe Tribune, in commenting upon the movements of the Grangers, in relation to the reduction of the tariff on bags and bagging, hemp, etc., has the following: The Grange throughout the State, with great unanimity, are endorsing the resolutions passed by the San Luis Grange, in relation to the tariff on bags and bagging, jute, hemp, etc. On December 18th, Los Angeles adopted the resolutions, this being only one of a long list that we have heard from. The only recalcitrant Grange so far heard from is one Santa Clara county, which is evidently made up of the old "Whig" element, for the members counter-resolved against the reduction of tariff as being injurious to the best interests of the State. It is well for the producer that the element represented by that Grange is hopelessly in the minority. RELIGIOUS NOTES will preach a new Sabbath morning in Church.

It is faded and rickety, but he says it is good enough for him and his family; and after his death his successor may put the State to the expense of procuring a new lot; for his part, he will do no such thing. Madame B. has to put up with this, and a good many other things; curtain lecturing slides off the Chancellor's bald head like water running down hill. Health by the Saddle. A Washington letter to the Chicago Tribune says: "At twenty years of age, now more than sixty years ago, Francis P. Blair, Sr., was pronounced by his physicians an incurable consumptive. All remedies tried had failed, and his doctors told him that the only thing which could beep him from his grave was the saddle. Study, overwork, or inherited consumptive tendencies, had given him a cough, which was causing him to rapidly waste away. He accepted the advice of his doctors and took to the saddle. He started off on a long horseback journey, which has not ended yet. When he began riding he had to be lifted to his horse, as he has had to be for the last ten years, but he kept on riding then, as he keeps on riding now, at eighty-six. From that day a horse has been his constant companion, and during the long course of years many a horse has served his old master faithfully. All these years until his recent feebleness, those who passed by Silver" BY TELEGRAPH. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28. The surveys for the new date, to turn the waters of the San Diego river from its present channel as that the river hermalter shall empty into False Bay, have been completed, and the U.S. District Attorney, Van Dyke, will soon commence suits in the Eighteenth District Court for the condemnation of the lands needed for the new channels. The Italian fishermen have formally protested against the Chinese fishing with traps and fixed nets in the waters of the bay, and have brought the matter before the Board of State Harbor Commissioners. PITTSBURG, Dec. 28. George Scott Jeffreys, a telegraph operator at Waynesburg, Green county, in this State, and Miss Lydia Cutter, the telegraph operator at Browesville, Pa., were united in marriage by telegraph to-day, the ceremony commencing at 2 p.m. The official clergy man at Waynesburg read the ceremony to the groom, who telegraphed the same to the bride, who responded by wire. All other business was closed in the two offices during the ceremony. This is the second marriage by telegraph in this part of the country. Four years ago a lady of Pittsburg and a gentleman of Rome were married by Bishop Dominie, of this diocese, by wire. ST. ALBANS, Vt., Dec. 29. A boy answering the description of Charley Ross, has arrived on the train from New Hampshire. He had been through the Middlesex railroad accident and came out unhurt. Mr. Kennison, of Boston, has taken charge of him, and he is stopping at the Riggs House. Hundreds sought admittance, and the reporters saw him to-night. The stenographic reporter noted his answers. He told several contradictory stories. Many people are inclined to think they are still off the track, but there is but little doubt that this little boy will turn out to be the long-lost Charley Ross, and the almost endless search will be finished.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 28. A mass meeting of the real estate owners last night adopted resolutions to sustain the Mayor in opposing the collection of taxes to pay for schools, the police and interest on debt. The meeting was held under the patronage of the White League leaders of last year. Pierson, the Republican member of the Legislature from the Parish of Nachitoches, was assassinated yesterday evening by James Cosgrove, editor of the Vindicator, a Democratic paper. Pierson was formerly an active Democratic politician, but for the last two years he has acted with the Republicans. Since that time Cosgrove has attacked him bitterly in his paper, particularly when he was absent from town. Some weeks ago Pierson sent a challenge to Cosgrove, which latter refused to receive. Pierson then published him as a slanderer and a coward. Sunday night Cosgrove waylaid and shot him from behind, blowing off the top of his head. Pierson was the law partner of Hon. Wm. M Levy, Democrat. Congressman from the Fourth District. His death gives the Democrats control of the Legislature on joint ballot.

Victoria Woodhull addressed a large audience in Cooper Institute this evening, on "The True and False Socially." She quoted the saying of St. Paul that the body is the temple of God, and urged that it be kept pure and undefiled. She said the past year had been a bad one for ministers. The Bible, she said, should not only be read in the schools, but read also at home by everybody, which last remark was received with much applause and some hisses. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 29. A train of eight new Concord coaches, made by the Kimball Manufacturing Company, paraded the streets yesterday. They were made for the Arizona stage line, and went down on the steamer to-day. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 30. Another expedition is being organized to sail to the wreck of the steamer Golden Gate, which was burned off Mazatlan, in 1862.

Two expeditions have been there before, and about a million dollars recovered, and this enterprise contemplates the recovery of as much of the remalder as can be obtained. A vessel is being fitted out with every appliance, and the same diver that obtained the treasure already recovered, goes in command. Phillip Fullman, the young fellow who made such determined attempts at suicide ten days ago by shooting himself in the head and then in the breast, died last night at the hospital. The square-rigged bark Pacific Slopes was successfully launched at Potrero to-day. She measures 824 tons, and is the largest sailing vessel ever built in this city.
