We were yesterday shown by a travelled friend,a Roman coin of the last days of the republic and consequently more than nineteen hundred years old. It bears the "Image and superscription of Cesar," just as that one had which Christ used in answering the enquiry about tax-paying and is probably much older.

Regular Correspondence of the Gazette.
Mr. N. Donavan, according to the San Jose Mercury, left that point on Saturday last, accompanied by a young man by the name of Brunson, who is an experienced type, and will assist Mr. Donavan in conducting the Santa Ana Valley News. They bring with them all the material necessary for conducting a first-class paper.
We accept the apology of Nemo, No. 1 or 2, no difference which.
If defiance of public opinion is any evidence of that fact, Gen. McConnell, and P. D. Wigginton, have resolved to retire to private life at the end of their present term of office. The former has introduced and rushed through the Assembly another irrigation bill, and had it done without previously consulting his constituents, who were mainly interested. He was evidently afraid to put it to the same test that the first one was, which was printed and allowed to circulate among the people he is supposed to represent, the perusal of which caused such a storm of indignation, that he was glad to hide its diminished head in the waste-basket. The latter suicided on the Texas Pacific R.R. project. He falsely assumed in his printed (it was never delivered) speech, that because Houghton was committed to the scheme, and he was non-committal, that the people of the district were opposed to it. He knows better, but he dare not brave the power that nominated and elected him—the Southern and Central Pacific Rail Roads.

About fifty volumes have recently been added to the Anaheim School Library. The district draws $50 every year from the State School Fund. Last year's addition to the library was lost on the steamship Ventura.
We have just been informed of a piece of unmitigated rascality on the part of some men in Los Angeles formerly connected with the "Co-operative Grange Store" in Orange. It appears that the store, now owned by J. W. Anderson & Co., was a branch of the co-operative store in Los Angeles, previous to the time that J. W. Anderson & Co., absolutely bought it out. The stockholders in the concern have held their stock or sold it out, as the case may be, and have paid no particular attention to it since their connection was severed from the Los Angeles branch of the business. A day or two printed postal cards were received by all the former stockholders of the old concern (many of whom have not owned a cent's worth of stock for over six months) demanding an assessment of $10 per share (each share was worth $50), which they claim was levied over half a year ago. It purports to be signed by a Secretary, authorized to do so by a Board of Directors. The present stockholders, and those who formerly held stock in the concern, claim that it is a bare-faced attempt to black-mail them, and if any of their self-styled "Secretaries" or "Board of Directors" attempt to collect this money by any legal process, the step will be resisted to the bitter end.
The Quackery bill introduced by Gen. McConnell, some time ago, is a step in the right direction, if the law defines what a quack is. We sent the author of the bill and Assemblyman Lambourn twenty three-cent stamps each, requesting them to send us a copy of the bill as the papers so far have published but a synopsis of it. With the same stoic disregard that has characterized them in other matters, in relation to their constituents, no reply was received, and the stamps have not come back through the Dead-letter office. Unless this bill provides for a rigid examination by a competent Board of Examiners, of all who pretend to practice medicine, regardless of the fact whether they hold a diploma or not, on all the branches on which every intelligent physician bases his practice, and every respectable school its teaching, viz., Anatomy, Physiology, Chemistry, Obstetrics and Practice it will amount to nothing. We leave out materia medica from the fact that there are some people in the world who believe, or effect to believe, in the Hahnemannie theory, Similia Similibus Curantur—"Like cures like"—and who believe in the infinitesimal dose derived from the same source, which carried to its logical sequence, means that the smaller the dose,the stronger the remedy. In other words,say a drop of laudanum is an ordinary dose,mix that drop of laudanum with the

— Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co. will soon make another contribution to Anaheim, and another exhibition of their enterprise by the erection of a grain warehouse, 40x80 feet. It will be so built as that grain can be loaded from the house directly upon the cars. To make it more conveniently accessible, these thorough-going gentlemen will open a new street.
— The Herald makes some very severe remarks about G. W. Linton, who is writing numerous letters to the East against California and things Californian. The opinion entertained by the editor of the Herald with regard to Mr. Lenton's reliability will be seen from this extracted sentence: "G. W.—which we suppose stands for George Washington, though George Washington Linton is very unlike our George who couldn't tell a lie, or Mark Twain who could but wouldn't, for G. W. L. can and does.
— Orange is hungering for the flesh-pots of Egypt. After for a long time refusing to allow a saloon thereby causing her citizens the trouble of coming to the seventeen drinking houses of this place to do their internal irrigation, she has finally consented that one be established in her midst. A temple to Bacchus is now being erected for the purpose and when it is ready, the good-natured Fred Schaffer will not as high priest. When this is in operation, it is probable that there will be something of a falling off in the number of “vinegar” jugs that now come to this place simply and go back full.
— About fifty volumes have recently been added to the Anaheim School Library. The district draws $50 every year from the State School Fund. Last year's addition to the library was lost on the steamship Ventura.
