Jack White and two companions left Los Angeles for the Black Hills, last week. Messrs. J. S. Stanson, of the Los Angeles County Bank, and Mr. V. Hoover were in town yesterday. If our paper is a little better than usual this morning, there is a cause for it. We feasted royally yesterday. Not on the common editor's hash, but daintily upon the lightest and brightest of sponge cake. "Way up" with fricasseeed sugar-work in colors on top. If any man gets our hat, after it is worn out, it will be that man from the Idaho Bakery, who sent us the cake. A Florida paper says that the scale bug has been destroyed on the orange trees of that State by concussion. The remedy was discovered by a horticulturist firing at wasp's nests that had been built in his trees. As a result of the shots, all the scale bugs fell to the ground. This is a discovery worth knowing here.-L. A. Express. We had a favorable opportunity yesterday afternoon of comparing some packages of Smyrna figs with some which were the product of our own town. Several parties were present, and all pronounced the figs of Anaheim vastly superior to native figs shipped from San Francisco, and equal if not better in flavor than those of Smyrna. Those to which we refer are offered for sale by Mr. A. G. Beebe, and are the product of the trees in the vineyard of Mr. Luedke. The long-felt want of a banking institution in this city, is now about to be supplied. Mr. John Fischer having made satisfactory arrangements with the Commercial Bank in Los Angeles, is preparing to erect a building for their accommodation.

The new and elegant styles of job printing issued from the GAZETTE office, are exciting the admiration of all who see them. Jack White and two companions left Los Angeles for the Black Hills, last week. Messrs. J. S. Stauson, of the Los Angeles County Bank, and Mr. V. Hoover were in town yesterday. An unusual number of strangers came down from Los Angeles by train this morning. Throughout the entire afternoon yesterday, thunder storms could be seen traversing the mountains near town. Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co. intend establishing a grist and bolt mill in connection with their saw mill at the Depot. A Los Angeles paper says that Tim Carroll is wanted at Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express office, in that city, to claim a box of perishable merchandise. Dr. Brooke, of Los Angeles, having received a telegraph that his wife was very sick at her parent's home in Innisoland, left for that State on Monday. Careful estimates of small grain sown in the vicinity of Spadra give 1,000 acres of barley and the same number of wheat that will average from 30 to 10 bushels per acre. Mr. Herman Cohen is establishing a circulating library at his establishment, under the Anaheim Hotel. He proposes to keep always on hand a large and well selected stock of books. Our list of patents granted to inventors shows that our fellow-townsman, J. R. Opitz, has received a patent for his process of underground curing tobacco. Mr. Tim Boege intends adding to the beauty of Centre Street and enhancing the value of his property by building a sidewalk from the site of the new bank building to the blacksmith shop. Messrs. Halberstadt & Co. have entirely finished the removal of their extensive stock of lumber from the depot to their yard on Palm street, and all business will hereafter be transacted at that place. Our columns were closed too early last night to give an account of the ball given by the T. S. C. Our reporter visited the hall, and from the extensive preparations made, we have no institution in this city, is now about to be supplied. Mr. John Fischer having made satisfactory arrangements with the Commercial Bank in Los Angeles, is preparing to erect a building for their accommodation. It will be located on Center street, adjoining the Planters' Hotel. Work will be commenced this morning, and the bank will be in operation as soon the building, which will be of brick, one story high, is completed. An election will be held in Spring School District (Santa Ana) on Tuesday, May 2d, at which will be submitted the question of authorizing the Trustees of the district to transfer and to receive a parcel of land in the town of Santa Ana. The Hotel and Building Association The Board of Directors of the Hotel and Building Association held a meeting at Enterprise Hall, on Monday evening, and levied an assessment of ten per cent. on the capital stock. After discussing the affairs of the Association the Board came to the conclusion to offer extremely liberal inducements to secure a hotel building. They propose to donate 700,000 bricks and the Dunn and Hawkins' lots to any one who will agree to build a hotel to cost $40,000. In order to convey an accurate idea of the inducement offered by the Board of Directors, it may be well to state that the land proposed to be given away cost the Association $2,500; the excavation for the foundation of the hotel cost $280; and, estimating the bricks at $10 per thousand, we have a grand total of over ten thousand dollars, which will be given as a subsidy to any person or corporation with enterprise enough to undertake, and funds enough to complete a hotel of the required style. Messrs. Fischer and Champlin, having occasion to visit San Francisco in a few weeks, will take pains to lay the above inducements before capitalists, and endeavor to interest some one in the project. The patronage a hotel of that class would receive, would be simply immense, and we do not doubt that the extremely liberal offer of the Association will result in having this great desideratum soon supplied. From Thursday's Daily. To-day is Holy Thursday. Tomorrow is Friday. Mrs. Partington is at the Pico House, in Los Angeles. J. R. Tobermann, ex-Mayor of Los Messrs. Halberstadt & Co. have entirely finished the removal of their extensive stock of lumber from the depot to their yard on Palm street, and all business will hereafter be transacted at that place. Our columns were closed too early last night to give an account of the ball given by the T. S. C. Our reporter visited the hall, and from the extensive preparations made, we have no doubt that a pleasant and enjoyable time was the result of their endeavors. A suit was commenced in the District Court on Saturday by I. W. Lord to recover from Goodall, Nelson and Perkins the sum of $66,789 45, for merchandise lost by the wrecking of the steamer Ventura, in May last. The complaint states that Mr. Lord is the assignee of all the parties who suffered loss by the wreck. Mr. P. Davis leaves for the East to-day to attend the sale of his immense stock of wool. Mr. Davis has succeeded in procuring one of the largest and best lots of wool ever shipped from Southern California, and will no doubt give our wool raisers a good representation in the Eastern market. The people of this county are asked to subscribe one thousand dollars as their proportion to assist in having California properly represented at the Centennial. The request for funds come from the sub-Centennial Committee appointed in San Francisco. A fine lot of thoroughbred Berkshire hogs were brought to Los Angeles yesterday from the ranch of Mr. R. S. Thompson, of Napa. They will be shipped immediately to the Santa Rosa Ranch, in San Diego county. We understand that the owners of the Santa Rosa ranch, Messrs. Kimball & Ludovichl, will enter largely into the raising of pork. The copy of "Madonna," painted by Ygnacio Covarrubias, of Anaheim, will be raffled in Los Angeles. Extensive preparations are being made to rescue the barkentine Ella, which was stranded at Anaheim Landing some time ago. The schooner Abraham Lincoln is daily expected with heavy timbers, and it is believed that with their aid the vessel will soon be afloat. Timo: Lynch left Anaheim last night for San Francisco. As Mr. L has been a constant subscriber to the Gazette for a number of years, he was prepared to look without astonishment on the progress made by this county since his resignation from the Land Company. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: Wm Justice, 5 pieces machinery; T J Lockhart, 1 saddle; W C & Co, 1 empty box; R McGibbon, 1 pkge mdse; Hen Lee, 4 sks coal; A Phillips, 3 rakes; H G Hubbard, 1 pkge iron; T S Winter, 3 boxes; G Kell, I spring bed; J B Sabaret, 3 pkgs mdse; L A Casey, 1 box; A Langenberger, 1 bble codfish. The Calico Ball on Wednesday evening, was attended by a large number, and the unanimous verdict was that the affair was an entire success. The managers must certainly have had experience in the practical workings of an entertainment of this character, as the entire programme was carried out in a masterly manner, and without an unpleasant occurrence to mar the festivities. The supper at the Anaheim Hotel was an exceedingly fine one. As the public has manifested a proper appreciation of their endeavors, the Club will give a strawberry party in five or six weeks. Dr. D'Assonville received quite an injury yesterday. He, with others, Trus Friday's Daily. Judge DeLong left Los Angeles on the Mohongo yesterday for the Centennial. Suit was commenced yesterday before Justice Clark by Menns. Gaddy & Lewis against D. Davies.

A wagon, containing a family and household goods, and a considerable number of fine horses passed through town yesterday, on their way to Santa Ana. Judge Sepulveda leaves Los Angeles to-day for Santa Barbara to try cases for Judge Fawcett. He will be absent until the 24th of the present month. It is rumored that Mr. Nagle intends opening a boot and shoe establishment on a large scale shortly, and has sent to San Francisco for the necessary material. One of the most important events among our business men here, is the arrival of the pay train; and on its arrival the question comes, "What is the price of silver?" The Fairview people are making extensive preparations for the Mayday picnic to be given at Cowan's Grove. Every one is invited to attend and a general good time is expected. And they hauled him off in a wagon, was the fate of the might-have-been member of Congress if he hadn’t got drunk, who slumbered peacefully in the weeds beside the Gazette office yesterday morning. Orange Items. Regular Correspondence of the Gazette. The constant rattle of the mower is wafted to our ears on the gentle zephyr. Orange is 213 feet above the level of the sea. The peach and almond crop promises a large yield the coming season. Why can't we have a Telegraph office? The expense would be very light, as the direct line passes within one-half mile of town. Will they remonstrate? D. C. Hayward has two three year old grafted orange trees in full bloom, at his nursery. Does not that argue that the budded trees come into bearing soonest? We understand that the crusaders compromised with Mr. Shaffer, by the latter treating to soda water and ginger pop. Mrs. Dr. Larkins leaves for the Hot Springs, accompanied by her patients. She will remain there until the new Hygiean Home, about two miles east of Orange, is completed. Wa Lee has removed his laundry to the east side of town, into Judge Talkington’s house. A bad example has been made by the so-called temperance community. Now every young man talks of going to the saloon—only-to-drink pop. The lecture delivered before the school last week, detaining the scholars until quite late, was heartily responded to by two out of fifty. Temperance, or the popularity of the speaker, is on the wane. The meeting of the public well subscribers did not pan out to any great extent; and now the proposition is, to organize a Joint Stock Company and sell the water at so much per month. Mr. Cooper we noticed on the street with a bran new wagon. On Tuesday the same was sold by J. W. Anderson & Co. We wish to cast no reflections on the general public, but this has been the most business-like week, in Orange, of any week during the past four years.

These rakes took the medal at the World's Exposition. All farmers should examine these implements. Mr. J. Q. A. Stanley was in town yesterday, circulating a petition to Congress against the decision of Secretary Chandler regarding the lieu lands. He is obtaining a large number of signatures in this section. —Delegates from the Jewish synagogues and temples of the country, will be sent to the General Convention, to be held in New York on the 24th of May, for the purpose of taking steps to establish a Jewish Theological College. —Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: L.G, 1 egg box; C.B Schuyler, 1 coop fowls; W Anderson, 4 pkgs mdse; G B Inman, 7 pkgs moulding; Mrs Grosbeck, 2 trunks; J S Roberts, 1 roll leather D Nagle, 1 roll leather; I Cohn, 3 pkgs mdse; Wong Ah Koon, 11 sacks vegetables; N H Mitchell, 1 buggy. —Sheep shearing on the adjacent ranches, is no novelty; but sheep shearing in the heart of our busy town proved to be quite a novelty to those who gathered to witness the shearing of the thorough bred rams of Mr. T. J. Askins, at the old shop of Mr. Gooch, on Center street, yesterday. —Mr. Mossman, who proposes to be ever the foremost in deeds of benevolence, has just caused a drive well to be made in front of his saloon, so that they who, owing to the general pressure of the times, are unable to indulge in cool lager, may "without money and without price" drink of that nectar of which the author of the "Old Oaken Bucket" sang. —the popular livery stable of N.

Mr. Cooper we noticed on the street with a bran new wagon. On Tuesday the same was sold by J. W.-Anderson & Co. We wish to cast no reflections on the general public, but this has been the most business-like week, in Orange, of any week during the past four years. Mr. Ergenbright left, on Monday, for Grass Valley, this State. We feel very—yes very sorry, for the Committee that braved the storm—had the courage, etc., to enter the saloon and confer with the proprietor, on last Saturday. They could help it, being appointed by their superiors, (who well knew their place and were anxious to push forward their subordinates), to stand in the heat of battle, while they remained at a respectable distance where danger was unknown, then, after the gentlemanly Fred. Shaffer, with true politeness, offered them film of the most delicious make, they drank and were jolly. For the Magpies, hypocrites, drones, leaders and prominent movers in the origination of resolutions, etc., to talk; make sport and really bemean the innocent, Committee, is truly pitiful. This teaches, when you want things well done—Send not se vents, but go yourself. Mr. McClung, of Virginia, and Mr. Farrall, of New York City, took a horseback ride over our country during this week, and appeared to be well pleased with the future prospects. W.C. Pendleton arrived in Orange Tuesday evening after an absence of over three months. He reports plenty of sheep in Feisco and some 15,000 head around Firebaugh's ferry, on the San Joaquin river awaiting buyers. A small portion of those 200 names advertised as signing the remonstrance and being influential citizens, etc., say two-thirds were school children from four to fourteen years of age. We are just as willing to joke as any one so long as it is a joke, but these little petty animosities existing between localities is perfectly absurd. There is nothing gained by such feelings, and it gives travelers a poor opinion of the people, besides furnishing considerable capital for travelers to make sport of. It is demonstrated beyond doubt that the gravel lands adjacent here have less frost, and we predict will be the finest fruit lands in California in five years. It is understood that Fred keeps needle and thread, and now good templars go there to mend their garments, and drink soda water. A party of twelve Orangeites leave for San Catalina on the 28th inst., to be gone some five days or so. Mr. Pendleton informs us that he purchased a round bill of goods while in the city. They will be down on the Newport steamer. He showed us a Whenever the proprietaire Of the Gazette—that fine papaire— Hears a step on the office staire.

A visit to the depot about train-time will convince anyone of the growing importance of this section. Not a train arrives which does not bring enough passengers to crowd the various stages which run between the depot and this and adjoining towns. The attorneys in the criminal suit against Ledyard discovered yesterday that the case was outlawed according to the Penal Code, and on motion of the District Attorney, Ledyard was dismissed. Four days ammunition wasted. Herald. Two surveying parties of the Southern Pacific railroad returned to Los Angeles on Tuesday, having concluded their survey of the line in Arizona. One party which was formerly under Col. Phelps was in charge of W. D. Gillette, and the other was under Capt. Isaac Smith. Capt. Nelson, of the G. N. & P. Steamship Company, is in Los Angeles, so is Arthur Brown, General Superintendent of Bridges of the S. P. R. R. The Lafayette Hotel coach upset while leaving the Los Angeles depot on Tuesday evening, and one man's hip was broken. There is $137,338 40 in the County Treasury. The popular livery stable of N. H. Mitchell, on Centre street, is about to receive an invoice of new buggies. Mr. Mitchell spares no pains to render his establishment one of the best on the coast, and his patrons are always sure of perfect satisfaction. Capt. Nelson, of Goodall, Nelson & Perkins, was in town yesterday. He visited Newport to ascertain the feasibility of entering that harbor with the company's steamers. We are confident that his report will be favorable. Tustin City Items. [Regular Correspondence of the Gazette.] A festival was held on Friday eve., the 7th, to raise money to purchase an organ for the public school of this place. It was well attended and everything passed off satisfactorily. We are having a vacation of one week in our school, for the purpose of painting the school house and putting down the new furniture which arrived to-day. We do not claim, as our friend Blon intimates, that it is not to our interest to see that there is no fraud in the distribution of the school fund, but we believe that everything is on the square in Upper Santa Ana district. Mr. Willard is boring a well near this place. He is putting down a 3-inch pipe. A party of excursionists left here on last Saturday for Laguna Cañon. They returned on Sunday, and reported having a first rate time—sea-bathing and other coast enjoyments. I believe there is talk of another trip to the coast about May-day. The Spalding court martial is dragging along slowly, and the Judge Advocate thinks it will last six months longer. The evidence has so far been confined to the first count in the indictment, and the evidence from the first witness has been cumulative and strong against Spalding. It is understood that Fred keeps needle and thread, and now good templars go there to mend their garments, and drink soda water. A party of twelve Orangeites leave for San Catalina on the 25th inst., to be gone some five days or so. Mr. Pendleton informs us that he purchased a round bill of goods while in the city. They will be down on the Newport steamer. He showed us a photo taken after three months' sheep driving that resembles every one else except the original. We notice quite a change in the printed resolutions from the original, from which we copied Resolution II. However as the change was for the better, we won't say anything about it. Our people are glad to know that the Bush Bill, regulating the practice of medicine, has become a law. Properly enforced, the public will get rid of numerous quacks who prey upon their credibility. The Orange Hotel, Webber & McGibbon proprietors, will open on Saturday, 15th inst., when all can be accommodated, and we assure all travellers that they can find no fault with the above named house. A man of capital can find several propositions in this vicinity where money can be made to pay large interest, by building business houses to rent, or sell on the installment plan. The Republican primary election, to elect a delegate to the County Convention on April 17, will hold forth on Saturday, 15th inst., at J. W. Anderson & Co.'s store. Polls open from 2 to 5 P.M. N.D. Harwood and L.J.Lockhart, Judges. All Republicans interested are expected to attend and vote for a delegate. B.F. Smith will soon furnish the hungry public with choice beef. A boot and shoe maker would do well by coming to this place and establishing a shop. X.Y.Z. April 12, 1876. The Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons of California are holding their annual convention in San Francisco. The following beautiful lines were written by James Montgomery, the well-known Ayrshire poet. The poet, whose smaller pieces are considered nearly equal to those of Moore, was born at Irvine, in 1771. There is a land of every land the pride, Beloved by heaven o'er all the world beside; Where brighter suns dispense serenity light, And milder moons camparadise the night; A land of beauty, virtue, valor, truth, Time-tutored age and love-exalted youth. The wandering mariner, whose eye explores The wealthiest lakes, the most enchanting shores, Views not a realm so bountiful and fair, Nor breathes the spirit of a parter air; In every clime the magnet of his soul, Touched by remembrance, trembles to that pole; For in this land of heaven's peculiar grace, The heritage of nature's noblest race, There is a spot of earth supremely blest, A dearer, sweeter spot than all the rest, Where man, creation's tyrant, casts aside His sword and scepter, pageantry and pride, While in his softened looks benignly blend The sire, the son, the husband, brother, friend. Here woman reigns, the mother, daughter, wife Strew with fresh flowers the narrow way of life! In the clear heaven of her delightful eye, An angel-guard of love and grace lie; Around her feet domestic duties meet, And fireside pleasures gambol at her feet. Where shall that land, that spot of earth be found? Art thou a man?—a patriot?—look around; Oh, thou shalt find, howe'er thy footsteps roam. That land thy country, and that spot thy home. [Chambers' Journal] The Patriotic Voteire.

An ingenious youth yesterday initiated our friend Beebe into the mysteries of dropping a knife into a small necked bottle, from a height of ten or twelve feet, stimulated by a small bet from the aforesaid Beebe, that he could not do it. Suspending the knife at the required altitude, he moistened it with water, and watching where the water dropped, was enabled to move the bottle enough to catch the knife, and nature the coin of the aforesaid Beebe. I hereby return my sincere thanks to the public of Anaheim and visibly for the patronage bestowed upon me in the past, and would respectfully solicit a continuance of their favors. I am now receiving a large and complete stock of first-class material for manufacturing saddles and harnesses, and in view of the hard times that are upon us, have concluded to put everything in my line down to bed-rock prices, for cash. Any and all styles of saddles, bridles and harness made to order on short notice, and at as low rates as they can be had in Southern California. Also, in connection with the harness and saddler department, I have secured the services of a first-class trimmer. Buggies, carriages and spring wagons trimmed on short notice, and at reasonable prices. Repairing neatly done on short notice, Respectfully, etc., etc. N. B.-All those knowing them selves indebted to the late firm of Thompson & Roberts, are requested to come forward and settle immediately and save trouble and costs. Dragging out Existence. The nervous, weakly invalid does not enjoy life but merely "drags out existence" as the phrase is. Unfitted for the active pursuits of life and incapable of partaking of its pleasures, to which health alone can give rest; disinclined to social intercourse, and a prey to melancholy, the valentudinarian is indeed an object of pity. Yet there is nothing in all this that cannot be remedied by that general alterative tonic and nervine. Hostetter's Etiomach Bitters, which supplies deficient stamina, braces the nervous system, and overcomes those bodily irregularities to which nervous weakness is most frequently attributed. Diseases of the kidney and bladder, imperfect digestion, uterine troubles, are for the sources of debility. Their eradication however becomes a matter of certainty when Hostetter's Etiomach Bitters are systematically used for that purpose. The Bitters like wise annihilate and prevent fever and ague and other debilitating febrile complaints of a malarial nature. Anahim Merchant Tailoring Emporium, M. A. MENDELSON, Centre Street, Anahim.
