From Tuesday's Daily. —Gold opened in New York at 113 yesterday. —We learn that Dr. Ellis' furniture from England is badly damaged. —The Turn-Verein Hall, in Los Angeles, was on Saturday the scene of the annual masquerade of the Society. —We are informed that Judge Evey will go to Sacramento to morrow in the interest of county division. —Maj. W. H. Toler, of Orange, passed through Anaheim last night on his way to Orange. He is just returning from the East. —Don Andreas Pico died in Los Angeles at ten o'clock yesterday morning. Deceased was a brother of Pio Pico, the last Mexican Governor of California. —The good quality of our beef steaks and mutton chops these days, bears evidence to the nutritious luxuriance of the grazing. "All around Anaheim is now a carpet of waving green. —The following freight was shipped from the depot yesterday: 1 box books; 10 sacks oil beans, 835 lbs; 13 sks beet seed, 484 lbs; 10 sks potatoes, 1,800 lbs; 1 sk walnuts, 50 lbs; 143 sks corn, 17,884 lbs; 1 sand pump, 45 lbs. —There are packages in Wells, Fargo & Co.'s for the following persons: Col. —The preliminary lines for a narrow gauge road from Santa Ana to Newport Landing were run out yesterday, by Mr. Harmon and others. —We are informed that about 5,000 or 6,000 sacks of barley are annually used by the breweries of Anaheim. The beer they make is very superior. —We are told by an old citizen, that the soil around Anaheim is especially adapted for the production of Irish potatoes as well as many other valuable products. —We had yesterday the pleasure of meeting the Rev. Mr. Condit and lady, of Chinese renown. The Doctor will probably remain in Anaheim a day or wo. —the letters of Geo. Washington and John Hancock, which we published yesterday, and which never before were in print, will be sent by Dr. Burtnett to the Centennial. —the small number of drunken men ever seen on our streets is surprising, especially when we consider that the intoxicating liquors are so cheap here as to be within the reach of all. Mr. Langenberger is now removing some grape vines at intervals throughout his vineyard and replacing them with orange trees, thus pillizing the land both for orchard and vineyard. —We yesterday saw some very good looking fish upon the street. They had been caught on the Laguna. When Anaheim becomes a large city the inhabitants can always be sure of plenty salt water "game." Mr. C. E. French intends moving into Anaheim shortly, and for that purpose has rented some of the apartments of Dr. Ellis' spacious house. We are glad of the acquisition to our community. —Dewitt C. Lawrence, formerly con- The good quality of our beer steaks and mutton chops these days, bears evidence to the nutritious luzuria of the grazing. All around Anaheim is now a carpet of waving green. The following freight was shipped from the depot yesterday: 1 box books; 10 sacks oil beans, 835 lbs; 13 sks beet seed, 484 lbs; 10 sks potatoes, 1,890 lbs; 1 sk walnuts, 50 lbs; 143 sks corn, 17,884 lbs; 1 sand pump, 45 lbs. There are packages in Wells, Fargo & Co. for the following persons: Col. J. C. Hill, C. E. Leonard, J. Dunstan, T. H. Booth, Miss L. Kuejp, Frank Reverin, S. R. Graves, S. Young, A. G. Beebe, M. A. McGibbon, Dr. J. Gardiner, H. M. Judson, C. Marthey. The air yesterday was delightfully warm and pleasant. It is a privilege to live in so pleasant a place as Anaheim. Every voice has a contented sound, as if the owner were at peace with all the world. But one voice of discord is heard among the general harmony. It is the editor, calling for Rems, and will not be comforted, because they are not. A number of persons from the adjacent country were yesterday in town. They report a highly favorable aspect of things. There are an immense number of intelligent and thrifty farmers around Anaheim, but the large quantity of magnificent land now lying idle, gives an opportunity for many more settlers than are already here. The following freight was received at the depot yesterday: J C Edwards, 1 bill sash, J H Kellogg 3 pkgs shakes, J W Anderson & Co. 3 egg boxes; E P Reil 3 bills trees, W H Spurgeon 1 pkg mose, J'W Caller 35 joints well pipe, Cahen & Willard 1 mt case; P H D. 20 bundles sheet iron, J B. 10 bundles sheet iron, L Gildmacher 1 case cigars, J C Joplin 3 trunks hb goods, J Ness flour, 1 keg syrup, 1 box mose, A Langenberger 43 packages groceries. Since we read long ago the story of the goose that saved Rome by its opportune uproar, we have had a high esteem for that respectable biped, and on the few occasions that we had them placed before us on the table, have never struck tooth into their tough flesh without compunction of conscience. But we feel confident that the one that inhabits the yard just under our window must be of a different breed, for it cackles furiously at intervals all the night long. If those in the capitol at Rome had been so boisterous on every occasion, we do not looking fish upon the street. They had been caught on the Laguna. When Anaheim becomes a large city the inhabitants can always be sure of plenty salt water "game." Mr. C. E. French intends moving into Anaheim shortly, and for that purpose has rented some of the apartments of Dr. Ellis' spacious house. We are glad of the acquisition to our community. Dewitt C. Lawrence, formerly connected with this paper, has bought out the interest of Geo. W. Barter in the West Oakland Press, and is now conducting it as the sole proprietor. Good luck to him. This office received an adornment yesterday, in the shape of a very handsome chromo. How ingenious a thing is this invention of chromo printing. An invention which makes the blind force of machinery, more cunning and more sure than the genius-guided hand of the artist. Several farmers with whom we have talked are contemplating putting in a considerable quantity of Alfalfa seed. We are informed that it thrives remarkably well in this vicinity, and that this is a good time for planting as no fears are entertained by many of injury from frost. The young man from Santa Ana who amused himself by relating the story of the death of the Williams party in Arizona, has established for himself the unenviable reputation of having perpetrated a cruel hoax upon the friends of the party. There is not a shadow of truth in the statement, and he now says he left the parties alive and well when he started home. Such jokes are unfeeling and unnecessary. We learn that the timbers constituting the cargo of the Nick Biddle have swollen under the influence of the water so as to be tight, and not easily movable. Capt. Black to-day telegraphed the lumber dealers here asking if they would make a bid for it. They, we believe, decided to make an offer. It is in the hands of the insurance company. We yesterday had a conversation of some length with a dairyman of fifteen years' experience of the business. He is now engaged in it in this town, and thinks himself certain of success. He pronounces this Anaheim section to be unequaled in this regard. A gentleman in Tustin, we learn, is in the habit of putting into the opportune uproar, we have had a high esteem for that respectable biped, and on the few occasions that we had them placed before us on the table, have never struck tooth into their tough flesh without compunction of conscience. But we feel confident that the one that inhabits the yard just under our window must be of a different breed, for it cackles furiously at intervals all the night long. If those in the capitol at Rome had been so boisterous on every occasion, we do not suppose that Manlitus on being waked up by them would have done otherwise than to mutter an oath at them, and go to sleep again. —It is said that Confucius, the Chinese Socrates, was aroused to the industry which enabled him to attain his great distinction through being much affected, when a young man, by accidentally seeing the perseverance which an old woman bestowed upon the labor of grinding down a large bar of iron, to the size of a knitting needle. We are afraid we are not of such impressible stuff. For a week we have daily passed by the place where a small dog has been indefatigably putting in his time, trying to eat the lower part of the leg of a cow. He continues his endeavors, notwithstanding the fact of his not having penetrated the skin. We confess, however, that the only effect the sight of his perseverance has made upon us, has been to cause us to aim a kick and an epithet at him, every time the sight meets our eyes. From Wednesday's Daily. —The weather yesterday had a real tropical luxuriance of warmth. —The barkentine Grace Roberts is now discharging a large cargo of lumber at our landing. —We learn that up to this time from the 17th of October, the rain fall at El Monte has been 16.70 inches. On the 8th and 9th, 2.75 inches fell. —We yesterday had a conversation of some length with a dairyman of fifteen years' experience of the business. He is now engaged in it in this town, and thinks himself certain of success. He pronounces this Anaheim section to be unequaled in this regard. —A gentleman in Tustin, we learn, is in the habit of putting into the holes made for his orange trees, the leaves of the cactus, in order to keep away the gophers. He thinks this an effectual remedy. —The horses upon the streets yesterday bore evidence to the warmth of the weather by the the sweat upon them. From Thursday's Daily. —The person who took the sign of Mr. R. W. Scott from Kroeger's Hall, is requested to return it. No questions will be asked. —We learn that Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Gaddy & Lewis, has purchased the residence on the Helmann & George vineyard, now occupied by Mr. J. H. Short. —We yesterday saw two Chinese engaged very intently playing some game like chess. We asked if they were gambling. "No," said he, "only hab litty fun." —The roads are very solid and firm now that the rain has been somewhat evaporated from the upper crust. It is a real pleasure to ride on such roads, behind a good pair of horses. —We are sorry to learn that the barn of Mr. Joel Parker, of Orange, was burned on Wednesday night. A buggy and harness and a considerable quantity of feed were destroyed. The loss is estimated at $1,000. —It is only necessary postoffice here for distribution of how large a number at this place. A come from the surrey for the transaction. —We every morning dons of the Chinese crying large bundles to their various esse believe they monogamous business here, but popular with all, and probable that an would do well also man might obtain such an enterprise. At least there is, while adventure; we have for that or any other by the way, which all the towns in Ca... New-Year-day, 5,600 annually in the city. that specially Irish valument of lady, will stay or be installed here were Hartnett. Valentine's day has come and gone. It being old-fogish to send sentimental ones, and rather an indication of spirit and Americanism to send comic ones, few, save those of the latter class, passed through the mails. There are quite a number of physicians in Anaheim. This fact is to be explained, not by any inducements in the line of practice, but because being by profession judges of such things, they recognize the distinguished advantages of our climate, and are willing to remain here and sacrifice pecuniary, to physical welfare. The Mountain caions in the vicinity of this place, are said to possess great charms of scenery. For picnics, there is here a double opportunity; inasmuch as the sea-shore and Mountains are both so near. The lover of Nature can, by taking an hour's drive from here, view her at any time in either imposing aspect. We had yesterday the pleasure of meeting Mr. Black, formerly a merchant in Boston. Mr. B. retired from business on account of his health, and has come to Anaheim, to try the well-known salubriity of its climate. He has been here, as yet, only a short time, but reports himself well pleased, though he agreed with us, in voting that Santa Ana blow a nuisance and a plague. One of our subscribers and friends in this vicinity was yesterday going somewhat rapidly on horse-back, when a reflection suddenly occurred to his horse and he stopped to think about it. Our friend, being in a hurry, continued his journey by going over the noble animal's head. He concluded, however, when he had gotten about ten paces ahead, to stop and wait for his horse to come up. That sagacious brute, seizing the golden opportunity, trotted off and our friend was in hot pursuit when last heard from. Five homes were sold yesterday at auction for $32. Gold was quoted at 1134 in New York yesterday. Mr. Franz Shaeffer, of the Anaheim Hotel, yesterday received a very painful hurt upon the hand. We regret the accident. The firm of Thompson & Roberts has dissolved. The latter gentleman will continue the business, which he has built up immensely. A Los Angeles exchange speaks of there being in that city a geranium grafted upon a tomato vine. The geranium is now in bloom and doing finely. W. H. Toler, of Orange, was in town yesterday, in search of horses. He says he wishes to purchase, in order to begin plowing for putting out a considerable orchard. We are sorry to hear that Prof. Havel, the musician, has after fraudulently selling various pianos belonging to a San Francisco firm, "skedaddled" for New Zealand. A girl was born to the wife of Gen. Phineas Banning, on the night of the 11th inst. It may be of interest to know that it weighed exactly ten pounds and three ounces. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 20 sacks potatoes, 2,955 pounds; 10 bdls trees, 275 pounds; 1 sack potatoes, 04 pounds; 8 pkge eggs, 340 pounds. There are packages in Wells, Fargo & Co.'s office for the following persons: Miss L. Kuelp, J. H. Booth, S. Shrewsbury, S. Harris, D. M. Ray, Thos. Wheatley, A. B. Hayward, Levy Frikas, S. R. Greaves, Jos. Young, Dr. Gardener. It is reported, that Chandler, the Secretary of the Interior, has examined the papers relating to the grant of Santa Ana Rum. Regular Correspondence of the Gazette. Many people from the northern part of the State and the East, are in Santa Ana and vicinity endeavoring to purchase lots and farms through the agency of the real estate firm of Humphreys & Titchenal. Mr. Berry, who recently purchased a portion of Allen's Ranch, starts East to-day with his family, where he will remain for a few weeks, and return. Mr. Frank Cobler, of the Mirror office, in Los Angeles, was in town a short time ago, and pronounced this the garden spot of Southern California. Mr. Athearn, of the Gazette, was also in town, and eulogized the place in the same glowing terms, and busily engaged himself in convincing the people that it was to their interest to subscribe for the Gazette (stating the fact that it chronicled faithfully all notes of interest in this part of the county) as well as for valley news in which he was quite successful. Mr. Sharpe, of Westminster, has bought a lot in Santa Ana of J. C. Hickey, on which he and his relative, Mr. Kell, also of Westminster, propose to erect a furniture establishment, which Mr. Sharp informs us will be conducted by Mr. Kell, "Nemo" to the contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Straw, of this place, has opened a carpentering establishment on the southeast corner of Fourth and West streets; opposite Lowe's blacksmith shop. Mr. Mason carries on wagon and carriage making and repairing on the latter place. Mr. N. Palmer's new house, consisting of twenty rooms, is one of the best finished houses in this county. It is a hard wood finish internally, and reflects much credit on the builder, Mr. Roper. The painting and graining is so superior to anything we have ever seen in that line; that too much praise cannot be bestowed on the contractor, Mr. J.C.Hill,and the crack grainer,Mr.W.A.Grow.The neighboring towns of Tustin,新port,Anaheim and Orange are in plain view from the observatory although the building is not on as high ground as the fine dwellings of Messrs.Fruit and Andrews. The new town of Newport was laid out by Mr.Maxwell,and consists of a ten acre plat of ground divided into In this vicinity was yesterday going somewhat rapidly on horse-back, when a reflection suddenly occurred to his horse and he stopped to think about it. Our friend, being in a hurry, continued his journey by going over the noble animal's head. He concluded, however, when he had gotten about ten paces ahead, to stop and wait for his horse to come up. That sagacious brute, seizing the golden opportunity, trotted off and our friend was in hot pursuit when last heard from. Many of our most dignified citizens were seen yesterday, forgetting sobriety of pace and propriety of language in the frantic chase of their hats, blown off by the wind and rolling sportively ahead, just far enough to keep out of reach. To be tantalized in that way, is more vexatious than a total loss. Adam must have felt the loss of his ranch "Eden" far more acutely when permitted to live near it and to go to its angel-guarded confines, than he would have, had he lost sight of it altogether. We are informed that the address of Walter Stokes, about which a lady enquired through our columns, is as follows: Corvallis P. O.; Artesia, Los Angeles County. We hear that there was a private picnic party in the Santiago canyon yesterday. Mr. Mendelson, the well known tailor, tells us that he has recently received a lot of very attractive goods. A gentleman from the San Gabriel neighborhood was down, on yesterday, and carried back, in his spring wagon, a large number of lime trees. There are many beautiful and flourishing nurseries in Anaheim. The burning of the barn of Mr. Parker, was caused by some little children playing with matches. The practice of allowing them in the hands of children cannot be too strongly condemned. Mr. Q'Neal, formerly of this section, now of Arizona, was in town yesterday. He has just returned from Arizona. He reports the grazing there to be very good. It is only necessary to stay in the postoffice here for a while, after the distribution of the mail, to realize how large a number of people center at this place. A surprising number come from the surrounding country, for the transaction of their business. We every morning see the myrmidons of the Chinese wash-houses, carving much credit on the builder, Mr. Roper. The painting and graining is so superior to anything we have ever seen in that line, that too much praise cannot be bestowed on the contractor, Mr. J. C. Hill, and the crack grainer, Mr. W. A. Grow. The neighboring towns of Tustin, Newport, Anaheim and Orange are in plain view from the observatory, although the building is not on as high ground as the fine dwellings of Messrs. Fruit and Andrews. The new town of Newport was laid out by Mr. Maxwell, and consists of a ten acre plot of ground divided into lots 50x125 feet in size. Many of the lots have been disposed of, and there is no doubt but what it will make a flourishing village. We are informed that Mr. Rowe contemplates making another addition to the town, by dividing his farm of ten acres into lots, situated in the east side of town. The Odd Fellows of Orange have applied for and received the consent of the Odd Fellow and Masonic fraternities of this place to meet in their hall, as that order has failed to re-lease the hall they formerly occupied in that place. The "Santa Ana" and "Centennial" Hotels are daily crowded to overflowing. There is a splendid opening here for a first-class hotel, that will keep a well conducted bar and billiard room. Mr. N. Donavan started Monday for San Francisco for the purpose of laying in a stock of material pertaining to a printing office. The size of the paper will be of the same dimensions as the Los Angeles Evening Republican. By the way, the latter is attaining quite a circulation here among Republicans and Houghton Democrats. BION. Orange Items. Regular Correspondence of the Gazette. Fearful warm weather for February. Mr. Norcross, from Tennessee, is looking for a home near Orange. Mr. Toler has returned from the East. He brought several friends with him. Mr. J. Hayward has located a Bee Ranch some ten miles south of San Juan: Mr. A. B. Clark's Bro., gave him a call and spent three or four days. Clark struck water in his well at sixty feet, and has twenty feet of water. Mr. Athearn, of the Gazette, called on Tuesday and had a pleasant chat of an hour. The party at the residence of P. Bowers on Friday eve, was a decided success, and all there were happy. J.C. Edwards is out of luck. He came near drowning in the Santiago last week, and this week he lost the valuable horse of Robert McGibbons. The Library Association is furnishing reading matter for almost every good-looking young lady in the community. Charley Tiehout starts for Illinois He has just returned from Arizona. He reports the grazing there to be very good. It is only necessary to stay in the postoffice here for a while, after the distribution of the mail, to realize how large a number of people center at this place. A surprising number come from the surrounding country, for the transaction of their business. We every morning see the myrmidons of the Chinese wash-houses, carrying large bundles of soiled clothing to their various establishments. We believe they monopolize the laundry business here, but as they are not popular with all, as wash-men, it is probable that an American laundry would do well also. Some energetic man might obtain a good business by such an enterprise. One inducement at least there is, which is beyond per-adventure; we have a plenty of water for that or any other purpose—a boast by the way, which can't be made by all the towns in California. From Friday's Daily. Mr. Ellis, a lawyer of Los Angeles, was in town on a visit yesterday. John Smith died at the County Hospital yesterday. A. G. Beebe has leased the store in the Planters' Hotel building, next door to the barber shop. Yesterday was somewhat colder than the day before and was consequently more pleasant. The boys on the street yesterday were trying to pass dull time by abortive imitations of the Los Angeles jumpists. We saw yesterday a drunken man on the street. The exceptions to the general rule of sobriety are, so far as our observation extends, few and far between. A meeting of the citizens of Anaheim is desired at Enterprise Hall, Saturday afternoon, at 2 P.M., to consider the necessity of applying for a town charter for Anaheim and to take measures to obtain the same, if in the sense of the meeting it shall be desirable. All interested are earnestly requested to attend, as a large attendance is desired so as to obtain a full expression of the people on a question that so vitally interests them. The business of fish raising is one well worthy the attention of our citizens in this part of the county where the necessary water can so easily be had. A man might, with almost no expense, after once getting such althing started, forever after raise more than he could use; and indeed, we can't conceive of any reason why such a thing should not pay if carried upon a large scale with a view to supplying the city markets. It has been said by a distinguished pisici-culturist that an acre of water can be made to pay far more than any acre of land. Is it true? The matter is certainly worthy of thoughtful attention. Crossing the rivers of the county at this time of the year is often attended with accidents, which, while annoying to the participants, are exquisitely ludicrous to the spectator standing safely on terra firma. As an instance, we may point to the adventure which befel P. John yesterday. He, with some friends, visited a bee ranch and on their return, the wagon was imbedded firmly in the quicksand. It was finally extricated, but in order to accomplish that end, the driver had to partially disrobe and paddle around quite lively in the translucent waters of the Santa Ana, while the rest of the party who had reached the opposite bank in safety, encouraged him in his labor by making soothing remarks, and advising him hereafter not to put on the brake while crossing the raging canal. Mr. Athearn, of the GAZETTE, called on Tuesday and had a pleasant chat of an hour. The party at the residence of P. Bowers on Friday eve, was a decided success, and all there were happy. J.C. Edwards is out of luck. He came near drowning in the Santiago last week, and this week he lost the valuable horse of Robert McGibbons. The Library Association is furnishing reading matter for almost every good locking young lady in the community. Charley Tiebout starts for Illinois next Wednesday to commence the practice of law. A musical social at L. J. Lockhart's on Thursday eve. Valentine's Day was not altogether forgotten. "Yours truly" received a magnificent ile painting, with poetical comments. J. M. Wright perambulated the streets yesterday in a linen coat. To patronize home institutions will keepin life almost any locality, but some foster prejudice in preference to benevolence, and charity. So mote it ha. A. S. Hamilton, Esq., recently from Santa Clara, a practical bee man of that locality, having been in the business since 1849, is now a resident of Orange. He has a fine bee ranch some twenty miles east of here, in the foot hills fronting on the Trabuca Cafion. His hives are of the latest improved pattern. They are the Langstroth patent with the Hamilton improvement. He proposes extracting but little and will ship in small boxes containing the comb. He also adds a clincher to the extracting theory: "Bees make all their comb at night," consequently their laboring hours are not diminished by the labor of building comb. In '49 he paid $100 for one stand of Italian bees, and in twelve months he made eleven stands out of the one. He also has all his hives nicely painted, with two coats, and they last very much longer, besides being always in order. The bee business is one of the most remunerative occupations in this part of the State, and amalurers will consult their best interests by calling on Mr. Hamilton and consulting him. X.Y.Z. Feb. 15th, 1875. NEW PATENTS.—Through Dewey & Co., Patent Agents, San Francisco, we receive the following advance list of U.S. Patents granted to Pacific Coast Inventors, viz: W. C. Wilcox, San Francisco, direct acting steam engine; R. A. Haw, Eureka, Cal., road scraper; C. Elmaser, San Francisco, Cal., carpet cleaners; T. Bailey, San Francisco, Cal., bale tie. We see in a contemporary the following rule to judge of the weather: First, clouds on the sides of the mountains; North-east wind with this sign brings a regular rain. Rain with a south-east wind never lasts long. South-west wind is only a squall, and North-west wind, no rain. DEEDS FILLED.

The fiend reached over, filled up his mouth again, and breathing very hard, inquired: "Colonel—did you—say—there—was—strychnine—in the victuals?" "Yes, enough to kill a hog," "Well, that's—what my family—physician—gives me for—a tonic—when I haven't—got no appetite." There is no reason why good wine may not be made out of our common Mission grape if makers would go at in the right way. It is very essential that no water be admitted into the barrels during or after effervescence, as it will make the wine sour—a fault too common among California wines.

FLORA BROWN, Pioneer Millinery Store, There is no reason why good wine may not be made out of our common Mission grape if makers would go at in the right way. It is very essential that no water be admitted into the barrels during or after effervescence, as it will make the wine sour—a fault too common among California wines. In order to allow the free escape of the gas, and at the same time to exclude the air, a simple arrangement is used, consisting of a lead pipe leading from the bung into a tub of water. The joints must be stopped with putty and the barrels must be refilled until the effervescence has ceased, when the wine may be drawn off into clean barrels and stored. The wine treated in this way is sweet and agreeable to the taste, and comes nearer being just what suits the popular taste than what is usually made in the State. We commend this plan to grape-growers, as it is the one followed by an experienced wine-maker of this county, whose product is universally esteemed wherever it has been tasted.—Sonoma Democrat. Rational Medication. Medication is only successful when it is rational, and it is rational only when it begins at the beginning. In other words, to cure a malady, its cause must be removed. Weakness, either general or local, is the origin of the great majority of diseases. Rainforce the vital energies, regulate digestion and secretion by strengthening the organs which perform all important functions, and dyspepsia, constipation, kidney and bladder complaints, urine difficulty, impure circulation, and the thousand and one alliants which are the consequence of gobility, are completely and in most cases permanently removed. The best, safest and most agreeable tonic and alternative that can be employed for this purpose is Hortelier's Stomach Bitters. The experience of twenty-five years, dating which time it has outlived perhaps ten times that number of ophmeral preparations which have entered into competition with it, has proved it to be unequaled as a remedy for all disorders accompanied by or preceding from weakness.
