ANAHEIM GAZETTE SATURDAY...FEB. 19, 1876. WOMAN AS THE EXEMPLAR OF CIVILIZATION. In every country, the civilization and elevation of the people is to be measured by the treatment and the estimation placed upon its women. In the onward march of human progress the two go side by side. It is an unfailing criterion. This declaration needs no argument to be brought to its support, for it demonstrates itself by proofs on every side. We use intentionally the old Saxon word, women, instead of saying ladies, a term which in many cases of its use, is a sort of hyper-refinement or, more properly speaking, a conventional sham. Christianity, which in its spread is the grand embodiment of human advancement and improvement, in every victory it attains over barbarism and error ameliorates their condition. A distinguished missionary once said in our hearing that when he first went among the Indians, he one day met a warrior and his wife or squaw traveling upon the road. The man clothed ST. VALENTINE'S DAY. "Good morrow; 'tis St. Valentine's Day; All in the morning betime, And I, a maid at your window, To be your valentine." Ophelia, in Hamlet IV-5. As the above quotation shows this custom which now it delights so many lads and lasses to observe, is fully as old as Shakespeare's time, and as the period in which the characters in Hamlet were supposed to exist was many ages anterior to his own, it is reasonable to infer from his making Ophelia allude to it in this manner, that he considered it as dating back to her far-past time. The custom is thought to have taken its origin from the fact that at this season of the year the birds pair off, and he who sends to his Dulcinea a picture of Cupid with his traditional bow and arrows, may thus consider himself something of a bird for the time being, though whether one of the swan or of the goose order must depend very largely on the quality of the verses he sends along with it. Burns in the justly admired song, "Ye banks and braes o' bonnie Doon," uses a phrase which may have been suggested to his mind by this old idea. The couplet] of which we speak is as follows: "And ilka bird sang to his mate, and I sang unto mine." Those who have had the good fortune to have read the noble works of Sir Walter Scott, and the good taste A COUNTY-PAPER Many sensible and of our county are in establishment of a farm wi to find work elsewhere by physical or partisans and young people for themselves in th could all find a home for it, do moderate to their capabilities refuge would thrive connection with a their toll might be is the case in England is attached for the chancial industries. An advantage possess over the shop lies in agricultural pursuit always be found for one, however incensed would be more heard from temptation, a tory to the paupers the fruit of their c again, the young thereby acquire skill in agriculture would fit them to ductive citizens upon in after life; and th—a race of farmers public domain, and welfare and independence. Christianity, which in its spread is the grand embodiment of human advancement and improvement, in every victory it attains over barbarism and error ameliorates their condition. A distinguished missionary once said in our hearing that when he first went among the Indians, he one day met a warrior and his wife or squaw traveling upon the road. The man clothed in his fauciful dress of buckskin and beads was riding in front, and behind on foot, trudged his wife, carrying on her back all their household goods, and even the husband's rifle. Not long after, the Indian was converted to Christianity, and he again met them under somewhat similar circumstances, but the handiwork of civilization was to be seen on this occasion, for the positions were reversed, and the woman was riding with a look of wonder at the change, and the husband was walking in the rear with the baggage. By the prominence of women we mean, of course, prominence in the tree sphere of womanhood. Nor does this intend to endorse a Salique law which would exclude the female sex from all employments save the drudgeries of domestic life. No one admires more than we a talented woman. The genius of Madam de Stael, bright and sparkling as a first-water diamond, impresses us with as much admiration in one way, as the beautiful character and Christian virtues of Hannah Moore do in another. We can never forget the delight it gave us to read the novels of Miss Edgeworth and those of Charlotte Bronte. We never felt prouder than when as a mere child, upon our giving up our place in a New York omnibus to a lady who entered it after every seat was occupied, a gentleman present said to us, "I know you are from the South, from the alacrity and the manner with which you resigned your place to that lady," and although we are not so narrow-minded as to be prejudiced against any one on account of the locality from which he comes, or to suppose that merit is bounded, like territory, by geographical lines, yet we feel appardonable exultation in the fact that nowhere on earth is a lady treated with more deference and chivalric regard than in the down-fallen Southern States. A DIVERSITY OF ELEMENTS IN MEN AND LANGUAGES. We have never investigated the matter in our reading days, and having no books here for that purpose, are unable to do so now. Thus we cannot speak ex cathedra about it. A friend has kindly brought us Scribner's Children's Magazine for February, which contains a short article upon the matter, which says, among other things, that, fearing it might be Pagan, a Pope in the early ages tried to prevent a continuance of the practice. Being unable to do this, he made a virtue of necessity, recognized it, and christened it Saint Valentine's Day. In giving it this name he probably went upon the principle which must have actuated those old Mexican Hidalgos in calling their ranchos after the saints, viz: It was so doubtful whether there was any religion about them, they wanted to be sure of having an odor of it in the name at least. Before closing, let us call our readers' attention to the proof of men being grown-up children, which lies in the fact that the Pope—who, at that time, could command the fortunes and the liberties of the people; could have made them spill their blood like water in any cause he favored—was not able to divorce them from a toy like this. "I can cause the death of tens of thousands of Frenchmen in my wars, and the people make no murmur," said the great Napoleon; "but if I were to give the cross of the Legion of Honor to half a dozen unworthy men, one of the swan or of the goose order must depend very largely on the quality of the verses he sends along with it.

The couplet]of which we speak is as follows: "And ilka bird sang to his mate, and I sang unto mine." Those who have had the good fortune to have read the noble works of Sir Walter Scott, and the good taste to have admired enough to remember them, will recollect the beautiful scene upon St. Valentine's Day between Harry Smith and Catherine, The Fair Maid of Perth, described in the novel of that title. Very many of our pleasant and harmless usages of merry-making could be traced back to heathen rites of worship, and we know not but what it may be the case with this. Hundreds of nursery ballads and quaint phrases and unintelligible songs, which are found drifting upon the surface of the minds of the peasantry in England, are undoubtedly from this source.

Oneofthemostharmonicouspoorfarmsisdue A DIVERSITY OF ELEMENTS IN MEN AND LANGUAGES. One of the reasons why we anticipate so bright a future of distinction for California, is on account of the many different countries from which our people derive their origin. This mixing of elements in the great crucible of national life, frequently results in a noble amalgam of the best qualities of all. The history of the English people and the noble English language itself are two admirable illustrations of our reasons for regarding the intermingling of equal races as productive as such desirable results. The present English race is, as is well known, made up of Celtic, Roman, Saxon, Danish, French and Norman as main ingredients, besides a constant intermixture of other nationalities in smaller and un-noticed quantities, attracted to England by its commercial importance and quietly absorbed into the mass of the people. From these varied sources have sprung the admirable English speaking people, who have no equal; who have never failed to hold any land they ever attempted to take possession of; who are foremost in the field of letters and of arms. From all these sources now breadth and comprehensibility has been given to the language, and he who learns it puts himself in possession of the key to the grandest treasure house of thought on earth and the key itself is gold, and sparkles with jewels from every land. In a universally educated and thoughtful country like ours there are necessarily a large number of subjects brought before the mind; so many, indeed, that in taking time to learn something of all, most are thorough in none. The strength of the mind is like a circle in the water made by throwing into it a pebble; when concentrated near one point it is considerable, but the larger the surface over which it extends, the more feeble it becomes. There are fewer prominent men now-a-days, but more generally intelligent men. In fact, in highly civilized countries a man seldom towers above his fellows sufficiently to become great, inasmuch as greatness is but by comparison. Gulliver was a mighty and awful giant, when among the pigmy inhabitants of Lilliput, and was the most marvellous wonder of diminutiveness when cast among the giants of Brodignag. The fact of there having been so many distinguished heroes in the ancient days of Greece and Rome is a sign not of the individual greatness of the men but of the littleness of the rude mass to whom they were so superior. Did not Shakespeare have in mind the fruitless efforts of a newspaper man to make his brains "give down," when he said "why endal your brains; the stupid ass won't mend his pace for beating." ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, FEB. 19. 1876. A COUNTY-PAUPER FARM. Many sensible and reflective citizens of our county are in favor of the establishment of a farm where those failing to find work elsewhere, those disabled by physical or partial mental infirmity, and young people unskilled to shift for themselves in the bustling world, could all find a home, and, in return for it, do moderate labor proportioned to their capabilities. Such a place of refuge would thrive much better in connection with a farm, upon which their toll might be bestowed, than, as is the case in England, where a shop is attached for the following of mechanical industries. In the first place, an advantage possessed by the farm over the shop lies in the fact that in agricultural pursuits some object can always be found for the labor of every one, however incompetent; then it would be more healthful, nearer free from temptation, and more satisfactory to the paupers to eat and live by the fruit of their own hands. Then again, the younger members could thereby acquire a knowledge and skill in agricultural pursuits which would fit them to be useful and productive citizens upon their own farms in after life; and this is what we need—a race of farmers to develop the vast public domain, and to build up the welfare and independence of the land by laying firmly its great foundation. The first newspaper published in English language was that established by William Lord Burleigh, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. The object of it was to keep the English public apprised of the movements of the Spanish Armada, which was threatening the shores of England. It is said to have been largely attributable to this paper that the people became inspired with that confidence and unanimity of sentiment, which resulted in the total demolition of that vast and marvelous fleet. That little paper was but the prototype in its usefulness of the present press, that mighty agent for benefit to mankind, which, bringing before the eyes of the people the shifting panorama of political life, lashing that which is wrong and applauding that which is right, keeps the bad in terror and the good in heart. Well may an editor magnify his office; well may he say as the brilliant poet Pope said— "Yes, I am proud. and justly proud to see. The men that fear not God, afraid of me." Viewing the benefit of the newspapers in another light besides this, and besides their being the general distributors of information, let us consider of what advantage they are to our magnificent language. They prevent it being a stagnant pool in which a few ponderous literary saurians "drag their slow length along;" The Execution of Women in France—A Wife's Last Request. [Paris Correspondence of the London Telegraph.] Sophie Ganthier had been found guilty of a horrible crime; she had killed all her children by means of pins, which she stuck into their brain. The death of this revolting criminal recalls a few interesting facts connected with the execution of women in France. Since 1840 nine woman have been executed, and they all met their death with great firmness. Ten years ago a man and a woman were executed at Chartres for having murdered their parents. In those days the guillotine was not the horribly neat and compact instrument that it is now; there were steps to ascend before coming into contact with the executioner. When the criminal couple reached the foot of the scaffold the woman said: "I should like to embrace my husband before dying. Pray untie my hands; you can tie them again immediately afterward." This supreme wish was reluctantly granted; for it was contrary to the regulations. Her hands were no sooner free than she gathered up all her strength and gave her hansband a ringing box on the ear. According to custom she was the first to suffer the extreme penalty of the law. Before the man had recovered from the stunning blow she had dealt him, her head had fallen into the sawdust. Another woman, who created a great sensation at the time, was Virginie Dezon, who had murdered her husband and two children. She was only twenty-five years of age, wonderfully beautiful and belonged to one of the best families of France. She had not the slightest fear of death, and One of the most serious obstacles to the harmonious operation of a county-poor farm, is due to that strong passion from temptation, and more satisfactory to the paupers to eat and live by the fruit of their own hands. Then again, the younger members could thereby acquire a knowledge and skill in agricultural pursuits which would fit them to be useful and productive citizens upon their own farms in after life; and this is what we need—a race of farmers to develop the vast public domain, and to build up the welfare and independence of the land by laying firmly its grand foundation agricultural prosperity. One of the few sensible sayings ascribed to a prominent man of the present day, is "an army is like a snake—it goes upon its belly." Though this is far from being refined, and is destitute of especial merit in all ways, it can be truthfully applied to a people, for the most important consideration with it is the source from which its food is derived. Augustus, both literally and figuratively the first of Roman Emperors, upon his accession to power, used every exertion to counteract the martial prejudice of the Romans, and to dignify this meritorious pursuit. It was with this view and by his command that Virgil wrote his celebrated poems about farming which so many a school boy has been strapped for. In the establishment of this farm such land should be selected as would yield all the year, so as to furnish constant employment. This can only be the case with irrigated or moist land, and while naturally the place for its location would be near the county seat, this consideration, should, in our opinion, turn the balance in favor of our Anaheim section. Near Los Angeles, irrigable land is both scarce and high in price, and even that which is called irrigatable land is hardly perfectly so, except in the immediate city, for the supply of water is very precarious. On the other hand we have here an abundance of water from the Santa Ana and San Gabriel streams, a productive soil and pleasant law-abiding inhabitants. Thousands of acres are upon the market at low rates and long time. We trust our Board of Supervisors will weigh these considerations carefully before taking any action with regard to a location. All we ask is that they give their deliberate attention to the advantages our section offers, and we rest our case confidently, for we do not see how the verdict can go against us.

They prevent it being a stagnant pool is which a few ponderous literary scrians "drag their slow length along;" and make it a bright moving stream, rippling in greater or smaller channels all over the land; and to carry out the figure, taking up and blending into one common mass, every peculiarity of the soil through which it flows, and preventing the waters of one locality tasting strongly of any substance foreign to others. We allude by this to the fact that the circulation of newspapers all over the land affect, by their being daily read, the language used by the people in such a way as to prevent the occurring of those provincial peculiarities of speech which in England render some of the inhabitants unable to understand the speech of their countrymen from other localities. The English language is the grandest example of the work of human intellect, and is the pride of its people and the marvel of its scholars. THE SELF-COMPLETE MAN. The old Roman soldiery were assiduously trained, so that they could undergo, with perfect composure, any extreme heat or cold or thirst; and as long as the rigor of ancient days preserved their discipline, they were able to set at defiance any combination of adverse circumstances. While this lasted, they were almost invincible: when it ceased, their decline began. In this same way should a man habituate himself to every vicissitude of fortune, and with equal self-command, go on his way through light and through shadow. To bear wealth without pride and undeserved poverty without bitterness, are not bad criteria of strength of mind. We have never thought Cicero a really great man, since we read his profuse and undignified lamentations on account of his banishment. A strong man is prepared for emergencies; and if his honor be unstained, can rise above them all, and with more true dignity than when in prosperity. Any tree will grow if it has the advantages that proper soil and care can give, but the palm At one of the schools in this city, numbers of the pupils were in the habit of bringing luncheon with them which at noon they ate together. Among those who did not go home for dinner,the teacher in a particular room noticed a little girl who always sat looking wistfully at her playmates when they went out with their lunchoon, but who never brought any herself. The child was neatly but very plainly chad, and the closest student during school hours. This odd action of the child lasted for some time, when one day the teacher noticed that the little thing-had apparently brought her dinner. The noon hour came, and the children took their lunch as usual and went out to eat it,the little girl referred to alone remaining in the room, with her dinner wrapped up in a paper on the desk before her. The teacher advanced to the child,and asked her why she did not go out to eat with the rest, at the same time putting out her hand toward the package on the desk. Quick as thought the girl clasped her hands over it,and exclaimed,sobbing,"Don't touch it,t teacher;and don't tell,please! it's only blocks." And that was a fact.Having no dinner to bring,and being too proud to reveal the poverty of her family,the child had carefully wrapped up a number of small blocks in paper,and brought the package to present the appearance of a lunch. It was nothing—a mere ridiculous incident in school life;but it was sufficient to make older and wiser regulations.Her hands were no sooner free than she gathered up all her strength and gave her hnsband a ringing box on the ear.According to custom she was the first to suffer the extreme penalty of the law.Before the man had recovered from the stunning blow she had dealt him,hers head fallen into the sawdust. Another woman,who created a great sensation at the time,,was Virginie Dezon,who had murdered her husband and two children.She was only twenty-five years of age,d wonderfully beautiful and belonged to one of best families of France.She had notthe slightest fear of death,andthe momentthe sentence was passed she sent a letter to the Emperor,begging there might be no delay in carrying it out.Prison life andthe lossof her long black hair produceda much more disagreeable impression upon this delicate woman thanthe sightofthe hidous chopping blockand knife.Many summary executions of women took place whenthe regular troops enteredParis duringthe insurrection.I remember seeing oneofthe advanced Republican ladies placed againsta wall behindthe Great Northern Railway station..She had just been taken witha recently fired rifleinher handand standingbythe sideofa dying sentry."Did you shootthis man?"inquiredthe officer,pointingtothe writhingbodyofthe sentry,"I did,"wasthe reply,"andI amonly sorrythat I did not seeyoubefore.asyouwerebetterworththe trouble."Two minutesafterwardshe was lyingonherfacewithtwelvebulletsinherbody.Deathhadbeeninstantaneous;hervietim,thesoldier,Livedtwohoursafterher,andexpiredinhorriblepain.

One of the most serious obstacles to the harmonious operation of a county-poor farm, is due to that strong passion in the minds of many, to live under their own roof tree, however humble it be, and when they seek rest at night, to be "monarchs of all they survey," however circumscribed be that vision. Regard for this instinctive feeling, and apprehension of the sacred relations existing between a man and his home, probably prompted the Roman law-givers to make their decree, that no man should be arrested in his own house, his stronghold, his castle. This idea is perhaps traceable back to the old patriarchal customs. Whatever be the origin of the feeling, it animates strongly the minds of all, and makes the "res angusta domi" easier to bear. In stating yesterday that the English speaking people have never failed to hold possession of any land they have endeavored to establish themselves permanently upon, we neglected to make an exception of their failure to retain their foot-hold in the French provinces, which were claimed by the Erglish Crown, and about which there was so much blood spilled by the two nations; and in the fighting, about which the celebrated Joan of Arc achieved her remarkable career. This omission is an instance of that lapse mentis which Richard Grant White recently described and coined a word for in "The Galaxy;" for we had the exception in mind at the time the article was rwritten. Board of Supervisors. Friday, Feb. 11. All present except Machalo. The salary of the County Physician fixed at $1,000 per annum. Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles county recommend the passage of an act for erection of a County Hospital, similar to the act passed in 1873-74, with amendments authorizing the issue of county bonds to an amount not exceeding $20,000, and giving the Board power to select a location for said hospital. Adjourned till the first Monday in March. Every man's life is a fairy tale, and written by his own finger," was a favorite saying of Hans Andersen. At a recent distribution of prizes at Greenwich, Mr. Gladstone delivered an eloquent address, in the course of which he said that one of the first results of elementary education was to produce a desire on the part of young persons or their parents to escape the necessities of manual labor, and pass into what is called head work. Here they had before them a very important subject. There was far too much eagerness on the part of the working classes to get out of the working class into another which was not a working class. The first thing that a man ought to do was to elevate his vocation. A workman ought to strive to raise the character of the work he performed, and in doing that he was doing more to raise himself and his family and class than by hurrying out of his position. Hand labor was progressively and rapidly rising, whereas head labor was falling. The ex-Premier, in conclusion, urged that what the working-man should aim at was to raise the character of the labor which he was called upon to perform. An innkeeper in one of the towns of New Zealand, owing to a threatened drought, lately had an artesian well bored in his yard, and at the depth of 270 feet water was struck. It rose freely to the surface, accompanied by a large volume of gas similar to that which has been found in many parts of this country; so the innkeeper's enterprise has been rewarded not only by an abundant supply of good water to set before his guests, but a means of lighting his house at night at almost no pecuniary expense.

A month or two ago, Colonel Bangs engaged a young fellow named Scudder as sub-editor of the "Morning Argus." On the day before the anniversary of Bunker Hill Bangs asked Scudder if he was familiar with the history of that battle, and Scudder said he was. So Bangs told Scudder he would like him to write up a little sketch of it on anniversary day, and Scudder said he would try. The next morning in the "Argus," it attracted a great deal of attention. When Bangs saw it, he called Scudder In and said: "Mr. Scudder, didn't you tell me you thought you were familiar with the battle of Bunker Hill?" "Yes, sir." Well, if that is the case, I will be obliged to you if you will mention to me what you mean when you say: "By four o'clock the confederate troops were ready for the attack. General Washington had the catapult put in a line to await their coming, and, when Napoleon saw them, he drew his sword and exclaimed: 'Soldiers! twenty centuries look down upon you.'" No sooner were the battling-rams leveled against the walls of the castle than the Duke of Wellington sent word to his mother, by General Butler, that he would either win or be brought back upon his shield, then ordering his men to fire at the onset with that majestic calmness which ever distinguished the hero of Buena Vista." This was the very crisis of the battle. Joan of Arc, spying General Jackson behind the cotton bales, dashing at him on her milk white charger, swung her ponderous battle ax over her head, her fair hair streaming MISCELLANY. The population of New Mexico is said to be 112,000. Of this number, 80,000 are Mexicans; about 1,500 are Americans, and the balance Indians. A telegram from San Bernardino says that Mitchel, the murderer, escaped from the jail there, on the night of the 8th—his friends assisting him. The distinguished Reverdy Johnson was found dead, at Annapolis, day before yesterday. He has been more or less prominent, for fifty years as a lawyer and as a statesman.

Mr. Crow, a Nebraska lawyer, has just gained his first case, and expects henceforth to carrion the business famously. Somebody asked Riggs, the comedian, the other day, if he was going to the Centennial this year. "Well, no" answered the comedian. "I shall be busy this year, so I'll have to let the Centennial go; but if I live and have good health I'm bound to go to the next one!" He proposes to be painted red, white and blue for the occasion. "Children," said a country minister, addressing a Sunday School, "why are we like flowers? what do we have that flowers have?" and a small boy in the infant class, whose breath smelled of vermifuge, rose up and made reply, "Worms," and the minister crept under the pulpit to hide his emotion. No sooner were the battering-rams leveled against the walls of the castle than the Duke of Wellington sent word to his mother, by General Butler, that he would either win or be brought back upon his shield, then ordering his men to fire at the onset with that majestic calmness which ever distinguished the hero of Buena Vista. This was the very crisis of the battle. Joan of Arc, spying General Jackson behind the cotton bales, dashing at him on her milk white charger, swung her ponderous battle ax over her head, her fair hair streaming behind her in the wind. As her steed rushed forward her hair caught in the bough of a tree, and as she hung there, Sergeant Bates shot her through the heart with a boit from an arquebus. Her last words were: 'Don't give up the ship!' The Duke could stand it no longer. The Mamelukes had slain all his vanguard. General Sickles had lost his leg and retired on a pension, and the enemy's skirmishers, lodged in the top of a mountain, were pouring boiling oil on those who attempted to scale. Leaping from his horse, he shouted: 'Up, guards, and at them!' and the next moment, with the glorious flag of truce in one hand and his sword in the other, he hurled his legions upon the lava beds and crushed the savage foe to the earth, killing, among others, the well-known General Harrison, afterward President of the United States.

Mr. Archer, of the Assembly, has introduced a bill to prevent the waste of water from the overflow of artesian wells. The bill defines what is waste, which it makes a misdemeanor. It has long been apparent that some legislation was needed to check this waste. Subterranean water is the common property of the neighborhood or community. No individual should be permitted to bore a hole into one of these subterranean chambers and draw any more water from such a source than he actually needs.

A lawyer from the country once entered the Court of Appeals while Daniel Lord, Jun., of New York, was arguing a case, and inquired of Mr. Charles O'Connor, who was sitting near by, "who that was addressing the court?"

Her Majesty, Queen Victoria, in her speech asked the ratification of the purchase of the Suez Canal as being a transaction in which the public interests are deeply involved.
