From Tuesday's Daily. — A large portion of the Railroad track near El Monte was submerged yesterday afternoon. — The schooner Golden Rule is soon expected to arrive at Anaheim Landing with lumber. — The only freight taken in at the depot yesterday was three pipes of wine. — The San Fernando train is reported to be between two washes and unable to get either way. — The pay train came through from Los Angeles yesterday noon, and on its return took the mail from this place. — Mr. Roberts wants to find the owner of a pistol, which, among other articles, was left upon his back door-step one night last week. — Captain Geo.-C. Knox will arrive from Sacramento on the steamer Orizaba, which leaves San Francisco on Saturday next. — There was a large amount of water in the Santa Ana river, above Bush's ranch, yesterday morning.

We tender him the customary congratulations, and wish him and his fair bride many years of happiness. A number of the solid citizens of Anaheim met together yesterday afternoon and drew up a protest against the issuance of bonds for building the Court House and Jail in Los Angeles. This protest will be largely signed, and forwarded to Sacramento. Our irresponsible reporter interviewed the big gun of the Calestials, Mr. Sin St Wau, last evening, on the subject of New Year and Chinese festivals in general. After nearly exhausting his stock of synonyms and signs he succeeded in extracting the information that yesterday was a big day; "all same Melican new year," was called Kong Su Tu and numbered 2113, showing that their calendar dated back 257 years before the Christian era. Dr. Hardin called our attention yesterday to an act of wantom mischief which has been perpetrated twice within a short time. He has a fine, thrifty hedge of cypress trees around his orchard, and some person, actuated either by malice or spite, has driven over them, ruining several of the trees and crushing others so much that they will probably die. As we have remarked, this has been done a couple of times, and as the road running past the orchard is sixty feet wide, it would seem as if the act was a wanton one, and the perpetrator should be severely punished. From Thursday's Daily. Mr. T. J. Askin has rented rooms in the Meta building and is to become a resident among us. The squatters in Las Bolsas district number about 274 and have four Captain Geo. C. Knox will arrive from Sacramento on the steamer Orizaba, which leaves San Francisco on Saturday next. There was a large amount of water in the Santa Ana river, above Bush's ranch, yesterday morning. At the Orange crossing, however, it was easy to ford. Notwithstanding the rain, the decipies of Confucius commenced the celebration of their new year yesterday afternoon with the firing of crackers, and other ceremonies. Capt. Moore, of Los Angeles, was in town yesterday. He has just finished the survey of the Banning Tract in Gospel Swamp, which has been divided into 40 and 80 acre tracts. Some hungry genius broke into the kitchen of the Planters' Hotel on Sunday night, and stole therefrom everything he could find of an eatable nature, including several raw beef-steaks and mutton chops. More complaints have been entered against the young hoodlums. Lately they have been employing their spare time in stealing sugar-cane from the Chinamen on Scott's place, near town. The evening train from Los Angeles to this place left Los Angeles on time yesterday, but was obliged to turn back before reaching Downey, on account of the amount of rain which had fallen during the day. Mr. Charles A. Gardner, lately connected with the Napa Register, and formerly a resident of this place, has bought the St. Helena Star and promises to furnish the citizens of that place with a first-class newspaper. We wish him success in his enterprise. On Sunday night Newmark & Co.'s store, in Los Angeles, was entered by burglars. They attempted to open the safe and had about succeeded in their undertaking when daylight interrupted them in their labors. There was about $1,500 in coin in the safe. This city and county will be pretty well bonded if all the appropriation bills become law. Altogether we believe bonds to the amount of over three hundred and fifty thousand dollars are asked for. If we keep on in this line the more property a man has the poorer he will be—Herald. There are packages in Wells, Farago and Co.'s office for the following remarked, this has been done a couple of times, and as the road running past the orchard is sixty feet wide, it would seem as if the act was a wanton one, and the perpetrator should be severely punished. From Thursday's Daily. Mr. T. J. Askin has rented rooms in the Meta building and is to become a resident among us. The squatters in Las Bolsas district number about 274, and have four schools. The county delinquent tax list will be published on the 1st and 7th of February. Mr. M. A. Mendelson bad his hand caught in a sewing machine yesterday, and sustained severe injuries. Six car loads of hogs will be sent from Downey this morning to Los Angeles. Several large loads of lumber were taken across the river yesterday. Good evidence that the beautiful winter is starting enterprise in that direction. A surprise party was given to Miss Ada Langenberger on Tuesday evening. About eight couple were present and a delightful time is reported. The street band was out in full force on Tuesday evening, and the newly married couple were treated with a serenade. Mr. P. H. Downing succeeds Frank Cowden as Deputy Collector of Wilmington, the latter having resigned on account of falling health. The suit of Crump vs. Robinson, for slander, and the suit of Kelly va. Dunn, will come up before Justice Randall on Monday and Tuesday of next week. It is probable that no train will arrive here from San Fernando for several days on account of the bad washed, caused by the late rains, on that route. Westminster has started a Cemetery Association. A plot of ten acres has been bought, and five hundred dollars has been subscribed toward the fitting up of the Cemetery property. The stage road near Bakersfield is in such bad condition from the late rains that the San Francisco malls will be sent by steamer until the roads can be properly repaired.

Numerous gang-plows were started in motion by the fair weather yesterday. A hand-car came down from Los Angeles yesterday, but the Anaheim small was left at Downey. WANTED.—An active canvasser will learn something to his advantage by calling at this office. Mr. Scott has put down the names of a few of the Young Americans who are in the habit of stealing sugar cane from his place. There will be trouble among the youngsters very soon. The Centennial fever has reached Anaheim. A new sign bearing the legend, "Centennial Cigar Store," was posted in a conspicuous position on Centre Street, yesterday. The rainfall for the season to January 25th with 81 inches. Referring to last year's record we find that the rainfall to January 26th was 12 inches—10 inches of which fall from January 19th to 20th inclusive. This however, was the last rain, except a slight fall of three-sixteenths an inch on March 3d. The stage road near Bakersfield is in such bad condition from the late rains that the San Francisco malls will be sent by steamers until the roads can be properly repaired. The telegraph informs us that Assemblyman McConnell has introduced a bill to incorporate the city of Anaheim. This statement is only partially correct. It is a town government that has been petitioned. At a meeting held in Los Angeles on Tuesday night, the sum of $250,000 was pledged to organize a new steamship line to ply exclusively between Santa Monica and San Francisco. E. J. Baldwin subscribed $75,000 and Col. R. S. Baker, $25,000. The very able statistical articles written by J. M. Guinn, and published in the Gazette, has been printed in pamphlet form, and will be sent to Sacramento to enlighten the legislators there assembled. "The happiness and prosperity of Mr. and Mrs. P. E. Mielez" was the loast which was drank with great gusto in this office yesterday. The Piper-Heldsick was furnished by the happy groom. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: J. W Anderson & Co., 1 case codfish; Theo Helser, 2 empty kegs; P. Davis & Bro., 2 amphibious 10 cases coal oil; J.

Sommery Field, 18 plugs corn meal; 4 plugs stoves; J. J. Guinn, 1 seed drill; Sin St Wau, 1 box rude; T. J. Askin, 18 packages household goods. The believers in Confucius had noiling big time yesterday, and the strate were filled with fire-tankers and Chinese bombs. It is fine sport for them, but not so agreeable to persons who are obliged to pass their quarters with restive and tiring hands. The San Gabriel bridge was almost carried away by the frenetic on Monday. The river is higher than ever before in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, and everything is affront. The Southern Pacific carpenters and artisans arrived just in time to save it. They at once saw the dangerous position of the bridge and by a liberal use of sand bags prevented the approaches from being washed out—Republican. Freight was received at the depot yesterday morning for the following persons: E S Saxton, 1 case mds; M Classen, 1 case cigars; T C Hull, 8 sks seeds; R & M, 13 pkgs mds; Mrs C Kirkpatrick, 1 case mds; C & W, 49 pkgs mds; J Bennerscheidt, 1 stove; H Sommerfield, 11 pkgs groceries; T J Askin, 10 pkgs furniture; J W Clark, 1 pkge hand rail; W G Freeman, 2 sks coal. From Friday's Daily. Capt. Geo. C. Knox is expected to arrive from Sacramento to-day. Many of the farmers of this vicinity are busy at this season slaughtering hogs. R. S. Walker, the Los Angeles bill-poster, died of consumption yesterday. A vacation of about six weeks is talked of in the Fairview school district, as many of the larger scholars are needed to work at this season. Typhoid fever is numerous in Los Angeles. One physician told a Herald reporter that he had fourteen beautiful cases under his care. The question of raising a tax for LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. The Fruit Bell. Editors Gazette—An article in last week's Bulletin, taken from the weekly Herald, concerning the "Fruit belt of San Gabriel valley," is calculated to mislead many, especially newcomers. By your intelligence, I wish to correct the wrong impressions that have been thus created. The fruit belt is not confined to any particular part of the San Gabriel valley, or to Los Angeles county, as many are led to believe. The Rowland ranch on the south, the Dalton on the north and the Mission San Gabriel in the center of the San Gabriel valley abundantly demonstrate that the whole valley is capable of producing the semi-tropical fruits. Anaheim has her groves as most favored localities of the celebrated "belt" of the San Gabriel valley; and In Orange, Santa Ana, Tustin City and many other places the young semi-tropical fruit trees are making as vigorous a growth and with as little damage by frost as in the "belt." Then, why is it that such particular stress is laid upon the "fruit belt of San Gabriel?" I know of no other reason than that a large tract of land, hereof a sterile plain, has been put into market, and if purchasers can be induced to believe that it is the only place where oranges will grow, probably a ready sale will be made and a "liberal commission" paid for writing it up. Mr. Editor, I don't like to see the impression getting out that that is the only place, when there are others equally as good, if not better, and in equally as desirable neighborhoods. W. M. McFADDEN. Anaheim, Jun. 25th 1876. The Bill to Incorporate Anaheim. Editors Gazette—I noticed, by a telegram from Sacramento, that a hill has been introduced by McConnell to incorporate the City of Anaheim. I was much surprised to see a notice that the bill had been introduced before the wishes and desires of the citizens of Anaheim were known in the matter. I have no doubt but what the citizens of Anaheim desire to have some action taken. Bridge House. Better Government of the Gammon. Since our last report the rules have been very aboundant in this vicinity. The channel of the Santa Ana river has again changed, and our bridges in one more across the right stream. Mr. Moshaugh and party killed twenty old ducks on Monday. A disgraceful family republished on Monday evening. The names of the parties are not to be mentioned, owing to first offenses. Several parties were compelled to remain in town Monday night, owing to high water in the Santiago creek. Mr. Abbott, of Canada, is looking for a dairy location in this vicinity. We hope he may succeed. For such an improvement in of the utmost importance to this community. Mr. Hamilton, the mole of Mr. Meyem (our liverman), is loking over the country for a location. P. Bowens was seen passing through the streets other day with an old plow, evidently intending to manipulate the same. The to be Santa Ana Valley News is circulating subscription papers and meets with considerable favor. A party of deer-hunters made a dear hunt of it this week. Mr. Ey became discouraged too soon; his brief season here was the dulest of the season, owing to every one being at work. We remember our young days when we see a party of gents and ladies returning from their neighbor's at eight o'clock in the morning. D. C. Hayward is suffering with rheumatism. It took eleven rifle balls in the head and neck to kill a wild steer on Wednesday. Man wants but little here in Orange, but wants that little long. X. Y. Z. January 26, 1876. Thermometrical Record. The following is our record for the week ending Thursday P.M., Jan 27, giving lowest point night preceding date, and highest by day: R. B. Walker, the Los Angeles bill-poster, died of consumption yesterday. A vacation of about six weeks is talked of in the Fairview school district, as many of the larger scholars are needed to work at this season. Typhoid fever is numerous in Los Angeles. One physician told a Herald reporter that he had fourteen beautiful cases under his care. The question of raising tax for the building of the Fairview school house will be voted upon to-morrow. The site of the new school house is located one-half a mile from the old one, and is expected to cost about $4,000. The gray charger of Doctor Ellis was seen running riderless through the streets yesterday morning, at a rate of speed which seemed to indicate that he had forgotten something, and the query was raised as to whether that something might not have been the Doctor. That irrepressible John Bush has again inflicted us with his apples. Now he has brought in apples of the second growth from his trees. If the apple trees on the Santa Ana will persist in bearing the entire year round, we cannot see why we should be held responsible. The only remedy we can suggest is for John to hang an almanac on those trees to keep them within due bounds. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: A. Langenberger, 20 sacks Graham flour, 20 sacks corn meal; Marcos Forster, 1 bundle trees; M. Mendelson, 1 cask wine, 1 bbl wine; Cahen & Willard, 2 cases mdse, D. Nagle, 1 roll mdse; E. C. Hayward, 1 pkg mdse; G. B. Dunsmoor, 5 pkgs mdse; W. C. Howell., 3 pkgs mdse; J. W. Clark, 2 bbls lime, 1 bbl plaster; T. J. Askin, 3 rolls canvass; P. Potts, 1 bundle trees. Considerable excitement exists in Los Angeles over the attempt of one Henry Dalton to establish a claim on a tract of valuable land within the city limits. The land has been improved extensively, and public sympathy is with the occupants. In our peregrinations yesterday, we found some solid improvements going on in the Heimmann-Sorenson vineyard. Mr. Chambers is building a residence nearly opposite Sorenson's house, which, we are told, will be an exceedingly handsome and substan- The Bill to Incorporate Anaheim. Editors Gazette.-I noticed, by a telegram from Sacramento, that a bill has been introduced by McConnell to incorporate the City of Anaheim. I was much surprised to see a notice that the bill had been introduced before the wishes and desires of the citizens of Anaheim were known in the matter. I have no doubt but what the citizens of Anaheim desire to have some action taken, so that they may make improvements in the streets, etc. I had understood that it was the intention of the citizens to apply for a Town Charter; but I did not for a moment conceive the idea that two or three persons should get together, and without consulting the majority of the property holders, draw up a bill, and without submitting the same to a meeting of the citizens called to consider the matter, send it to Sacramento to have it passed into a law before the contents were known to a dozen people, at the most, in town as has been done with the bill introduced by McConnell. I believe in consulting the wishes of a large proportion of the property owners in town before sending in a matter of that kind, and I will venture to say that not a dozen people in town have ever seen or heard of the bill introduced for Anaheim before they saw the notice in the telegrams from Sacramento. There ought to be a town government here, and no doubt there will be; but the citizens ought to have an opportunity to say what they will have, and to appoint a committee to draft the bill in place of the self appointed committee who has volunteered his services in the matter. Rex. Deeds Filed. R Heimann et al to F Burkle—Lot 98, block G, $200. Manuel García et al to John McDonald—Lot 4, block 5, 758-100 acres in San Juan Capistrano, $300.

Los Angeles over the attempt of one Henry Dalton to establish a claim on a tract of valuable land within the city limits. The land has been improved extensively, and public sympathy is with the occupants. —In our peregrinations yesterday, we found some solid improvements going on in the Helmann-Sorenson vineyard. Mr. Chambers is building a residence nearly opposite Sorenson's house, which, we are told, will be an exceedingly handsome and substantial structure. Directly opposite Sorenson's, a garden has been laid out by Mr. Richard Heimann, and ornamental trees and shrubbery are now being planted therein. This will be the location of an elegant residence to be built by Mr. Heimann at no distant day. We were also informed that negotiations are now pending, which, if successful, will result in the building of several fine dwelling houses. It may be put down as a fact that that portion of town will ere long become one of the most charming spots in all of lovely Anaheim. ORANGE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. —The consideration of the report of the preliminary committee on a new church building last Sabbath was laid over one week, owing to the small audience present. This and other important matters will be considered next Sabbath, Jan. 50th. A full attendance is earnestly desired by the pastor. MORN. In Anatole, Jan. 26th, the wife of Penland Bucks, a nun.

Deeds by County Judge to Jose Aguilar, Jesus Gadines, Magdalena Fundor, Maria A Canedo and Teodocio Velarde—Of their lots in the town of San Juan Capistrano. The Los Angeles Express of Tuesday has the following in regard to the affairs of Temple & Workman: We understand that the sum total of the liabilities has been ascertained not to exceed under any circumstance, $1,100,000. This sum includes all mortgages and other indebtedness. A full schedule of everything will be filed in a day or so. The assets outside of the real estate of the Messrs. Temple & Workman, mortgages, bills receivable, and over drafts, foot up some $600,000 or $700,000. THE REAL ESTATE OF THE MINESEN TEMPLE & WORKMAN. The real estate of these gentlemen is large and valuable. We propose to indulge in a very moderate estimate. The Puccini Ranch consists of 18,000 acres, and may be put at $25 per acre under any circumstances, yielding $450,000. They own twelve hundred acres of the La Merced Ranch. An extravagantly low estimate of this property is $50 an acre, yielding $60,000. They also own 1,200 acres of the Poireau Grande; an equally low estimate for this, $50 per acre, would yield another $20,000. No one, we assume, would put the Temple Block under $250,000. As it can be made to yield $4,000 a month, this is an extravagantly low estimate. No real estate dealer would affix a less value than $100,000 to the Post office block. In addition, Mr. Temple has interests in the Lake Vineyard Land and Water Company's lands, and in other properties, we feel warranted in saying, in the extent of $50,000. On the prescription that $400,000 may be realized from the Bank assets, we have $1,770,000 of assets against $100,000 of liabilities leaving the overplus $278,000. In this connection, we would remark: sanguine people put the Puccini match at $48 per acre and the Temple Block at $250,000; ranking a difference in favor of Moses Temple & Workman, of another $779,000 or $649,000 is all. "And your brother over on Chatam street; he assigned too didn't he?" "You see it vos shoof like dist," said the Bowery man; "I vos owing a goot deal, unt Jacob he vos owing a goot deal. I makes over mine stock to Jacob, and Jacob he makes over his stock to me, and I do his petness and he does mine petness, and dem fellera that was after money doan got some." The present winter will be remembered by the residents of Belleville, Ontario; as one wherein there were thunder and lightning on Christmas day and the apple trees budded on New Year's. Georgia has an equal number of sheep and dogs—$300,000 each. The sheep want all the dogs killed and the dogs want all the sheep killed. The Legislature will decide the question. An exchange asks: "Is there auder spectacle than that of a sovereign State deliberately repudiating its obligations?" We think there is. It is that of a bald-headed citizen on his hands and knees, feeling under the bed with a cane in the frantle attempt to find his slippers. The Mayor of New York has received an envelope containing $300, and a note saying: "This money belongs to the city." Can it be that it is a remittance from Tweede to be applied to his account? If it is then he only owes $5,099,700—Brzrhange. Useless speculation. Tweed aln't one of that kind. Specimens from Senator Shepherd's soap mine in Elko county. Nevada exactly resembles Castle camp; and it possesses all the qualities except that it does not raise a lather. It will remove grease and dirt from cloth; and the people in the neighborhood of the mine use it instead of soap but whether it has any commercial value is still a question. During the six years since the first shipment of ore from Utah, the total product of ore and bullion has been $26,089,000; and the present value of the mines worked is not less than $69,-699,000. The mining interests of the Territory were never so promising or so prosperous as at present. It is stated that the famous and long sought for Pancho La Palma Mine in Arizona; which Spanish history says yielded pure silver in such huge pieces 250 years ago; that the dawn confessed it for its own use; has been found by a much named crew about 9 miles southwest of Tucson; near San Juan Capistrano. This is the gentle modelling way a Los Angeles paper equals of a cotemporary; We feel called upon to warn the creditors of Temple & Workman's Bank to place so reliance in either the statements or conclusions of the paper which is now using its columns, in the interest of street brokers and monthly shoppers, to alarm depositors into parting with their claims at less than their value. A paper which pursued the bank with persistent hostility while in residence, and tried to defeat the efforts of Mr. Temple to obtain a loan in San Francisco by selling the title to his property, can hardly be looked to for impartial opinions in reference to its affairs. So blind is the prejudice and furious the hostility of the paper referred to, that in order to gratify its system it even attempts to injure all valuations of property in this city by depreciating the value of the property which appears among the assets of the bank. Let no depositor be deceived by the organ of the broker fails selling their claims at a sacrifice. The assignees will make their report in a few days; then all will be in position to judge how the estate will come out. "I suppose there are plenty of saw mills over in your State," said a Chicago man to a party from Michigan the other night. "Wal, I shud say that wuz," replied the Michigander. "Why, air, Michigan is gettin' so darn full up saw mills that yer can hardly meet a man ever there with mor'n two fingers on a hand." And sticking up a paw on which dwelt a lone digit, as a proof of his assertion, he quietly continued, "Pye shuk hands with um myself." The Maintenance of Health The maintenance of health is often more difficult than its recovery. Vitalized conditions of the atmosphere, unhealthy occupations, stresses of heat or cold and constant exposure to rough weather, are all so many provocations of disease. There is but one sure way of effectively guarding the system when thus subjected to influenza prejudicial to health, and that is to establish, by judicious tonic and alternative medication, vigor of the body and regularity of its functions. The properties of an invigorant and corrective are happily combined in Hostetter's Biomach Hitters, which, at the same time that it infuses unwonted vitality into the system, overcomes all tendency of the The Maintenance of Health.

Professional opinions are not infallible, and they are never wider of the mark than when they pronounce chronic Dysppepsia an incurable malady. To mitigate its pangs, the faculty usually prescribe air, exercise and brandy. The first two are God's medicine; the last is a Satanic poison. The only medicine needed in Dysppepsia and its concomitants is Dr. J. Walker's California Vinegar Bitters, the great vegetable tonic of the age. J. W. LOWE, Blacksmith and Wagon Maker, Santa Ana.
