Mr Thompson, agent of the Bible Society, will address the regular weekly meeting at the Presbyterian Church to-morrow night. The Santa Barbara Press calls the financial gentleman, who threatened to "run Truman out of the country," a "Bombastes Furioso," a "truculent coward," an "insufferable idiot," etc. We infer that the Railroad Committee are preparing their report, from the fact that Mr. Olden was in our office yesterday, examining files of the GAZETTE for commercial statistics, etc. Miss Katy Bremermann was kind enough to present us yesterday with some luscious grapes and peaches. The latter fruit were of immense size and fine flavor, qualities for which the productions of the Bremermann vineyard are noted. It is said that, when rail communication is bad with San Francisco, the Goodall, Nelson & Perkins line of steamers will all stop at Santa Monica wharf. The fare on the steamers will probably be reduced to $8 and on the cars the fare will be $15. John R. Doily, the patentee of the underground process of curing tobacco, commenced stripping the leaves from the stalk yesterday. He has ten acres of tobacco this season. We have printed for him a small pamphlet, descriptive of his process, which, to those engaged in tobacco culture, will prove of great interest. The initial number of The Pacific Life, a handsome, 16-page, San Francisco paper devoted to sporting matters, has been received. It is published by Shaw & Van Arnim, at a subscription price of $5 a year. We find that D. K. Williams' masterly feat of capturing a live pelican, on Lemon street, is duly recorded as among the notable events. There is an elderly woman in our midst who is undoubtedly insane. She is a stranger here, goes about barefooted and is followed by a small boy. Her actions would seem to indicate insanity. One day this week the children of the public school reported having been pursued by the woman, who held a large knife in her hand. It is the duty of our authorities to look into the matter. Downey Courier. This woman is now in Anaheim, soliciting alms. The Express says: Mr. Walker has his paper (or pulp) mill in splendid working operation, having spent in the neighborhood of $30,000. He is now turning out large quantities of the pulp and shipping it to Maryland. Eastern markets. The fruit dryer will be put in operation on Friday next. All who desire to visit and examine this establishment, will confer a favor on the proprietors if they will do so before the day of starting, as the presence of visitors will be extremely annoying when there is work on hand. We would inform the Los Angeles Express that the women's suffrage question was decided by a committee of ladies, in favor of the negative, and that, notwithstanding such decision, there still remains enough hair on the scalp of our Mr. Athearn to render a brush and comb necessary for the completion of his toilet. Item from the St. Helena Star: Mr. J. J. Bruce shows us a sample of grape syrup made at Weinberger's in the syrup pan, the sending for which we referred to some time since. Though yet containing considerable acid, it is pleasant to the taste, and we hope may yet become an important avenue of disposition of our Mission grapes, which are peculiarly suited to it. Mr. Jesus Rahnate, while innocently enjoying himself by imitating the Cornet Band and other delicate sounds, in the rear of the Anaheim Hotel at a late hour on Monday night, was pounced upon by the valiant Bohn, and on his appearance before Justice Bailey yesterday morning, was required to contribute to the County Exchequer the amount of $825, which sum he borrowed from a friend, and having promised that "he'd never get drunk again," he was released. The first service in the new Episcopal church will be held next Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. The seats in this church are all free, none being sold or appropriated, and a general invitation is extended by the pastor to the public of Anaheim and vicinity to attend any or all the services that will now be held regularly every Sunday. The arrangements for lighting the church being not yet completed, the evening service will be omitted for a week or two. The reception to be accorded to the party to arrive in Los Angeles on the first through train from San Francisco promises to be something grand and worthy of our county. Union Hall will be elaborately decorated. There will be six arches, one at each corner of the hall, and two at the entrances. These will be covered with vines and flowers, presenting a most striking appearance. One member of The public school reported having been pursued by the woman, who held a large knife in her hand. It is the duty of our authorities to look into the matter.—Downey Courier. This woman is now in Anaheim, soliciting alms. —The Express says: Mr. Walker has his paper (or pulp) mill in splendid working operation, having spent in the neighborhood of $30,000. He is now turning out large quantities of the pulp and shipping it to Maryland. As he does nine-tenths of the work, and receives only a small share of the profits, he is about to put up a full line of paper-making machinery. He is to have associated with him Mr. A. J. Hutchinson, of this city, and when their works are in complete running order they will turn out printing, manilla and other kinds of wrapping paper. The mill is in Soledad cafion, right on the line of the railroad. —The Presbyterian Church was well filled on Sunday morning and evening. Rev. Mr. Allis preached his farewell sermon, which consisted mainly of a review of his brief career as pastor of the church. There is a very general regret at the approaching departure of this eloquent and popular minister. Besides his work in the pulpit, he has used his pen with great advantage to Anaheim, by writing articles descriptive of our country to the Eastern Press. The very able articles which appeared in the Gazette some time ago, signed "Pro Bono Publico," were written by Mr. Allis, and the local improvements therein suggested have in many instances been acted upon. Indeed, Mr. Allis is a gentleman whom a growing community like this can ill spare, and the regret which his departure occasions, should be taken by that gentleman as a gratifying indication that his labors, spiritual and temporal, in behalf of the people, have been duly appreciated. —The reception to be accorded to the party to arrive in Los Angeles on the first through train from San Francisco promises to be something grand and worthy of our county. Union Hall will be elaborately decorated. There will be six arches, one at each corner of the hall, and two at the entrances. These will be covered with vines and flowers, presenting a most striking appearance. One member of the Committee will on his own account arrange a most unique and attractive surprise in the shape of two colossal pyramids, teeming with grapes and other of our finer productions. Each of these pyramids will be surmounted with an apposite palting—one by a fine picture of Bacchus, and the other by a canvas representing Ceres and Pomona. Appropriate mottoes, and words of welcome will decorate the walls. —We again call the attention of our citizens to the grand exhibition of the products of our county to be made at Los Angeles on the day that the last rail is laid, which unites us in rail communication with San Francisco. With a section so prolific as ours, it will be much to our discredit if we do not furnish a splendid display of our products. Let the farmers hunt out their finest ears of corn and best samples of grain; our orchardists their finest samples of fruits, and our vineyardists their best bunches of grapes and best bottles of wine. Let our housewives furnish the most excellent samples of their handiwork, and all combine to impress on the visitors from San Francisco the value of our soil and resources. No better opportunity has ever been offered to place this section of our county fairly before the people, and let us see to it that this opportunity is not lost. —The courts were busy night patrol is being conducted. —Mr. Addis sold his Palm Street yesterday. —Through trains we commence running between Tuesday. —This morning the Railroad Co. took possession Southern Pacific Branch. —Frank Ganahl had gram from Hon.

They tore down all the houses occupied Mr. Bush, of Santa Ana, is making extensive improvements in his siloon at that place. —Samples of wheat, buckwheat, grapes, fruits, etc., were shipped yesterday from Santa Ana for exhibition. There is nothing as yet at the depot to represent Anaheim. There is yet time to get up a good collection from this section. Shall we be left entirely out in the cold? —Mr. Miner, the handsome and popular bar-keeper at the Planters', retires from business to-day. He intends to visit the Centennial. He will carry with him the best wishes of his friends, and the old topers will mourn the loss of his smiling countenance and open-handed generosity. —The regular Sunday tournaments, horse-racing, balls and other amusements at Santa Monica are unpopular with some of the citizens. A meeting was held at the Presbyterian Church at that place on last Sunday. The meeting was called to order by appointing William Lloyd to the chair, and on motion of M. J. Vawter, D. G. C. Baker was chosen Secretary. G. A. Armstrong, Esq., with some interesting remarks, expressed the object of the meeting—to give vent to their sentiments as regards the desecration of the Sabbath in their midst. After several short addresses expressing their regret at it, H. P. McKusick moved that a committee be appointed by the Chair to draft resolutions in indication of their sentiments. H. P. McKusick, G. A. Armstrong and E. Lucas were appointed as such. On motion, adjourned to meet at the Presbyterian Church, September 3d, at 3:15 o'clock, P.M. All are cordially invited to attend. Meeting of the Literary Society. The Anaheim Literary Society met at their hall on Monday evening. The For the Gazette. MY QUEEN. A TRANSCRIPTION. How and by what shall I win her? if ever, What are the words I must say? How may the barriers now that do sever Me from my loved one be broken away? On her the sunlight that cheers me is shining, Shining with glimmering sheen. On her, too only one, my heart resigning. Whom I would gladly salute as my queen. Over her temples her waving brown tresses Fall in a beauty quite rare. Beaming in brightness, inviting carcasses, Archly her eyes bid the fond one beware. Many a face have I liked for a minute, Of have I been charmed by a cadence serene; Yet there was something I know not what, in it Something that could not belong to my queen For her I'm yearning because of the graces Crowling her head and her heart; These I prize far above beauty of faces Coming so often from secrets of art. For in her life there are sweetly appearing Signs by which plainly true woman is seen; Telling of virtue so very endearing That I would crown her, beloved, my queen: She is so courteous and kind to the lowly. Helping the weak ones, and loving them, too; She is so womanly, noble and holy. Nature has blessed her and Grace made her true. That to her fearlessly give I in her keeping Love and allegiance, for ever kept green. Watching and waiting, my hope never sleeping For the sweet hour that shall make her my queen. Westminster items. A goodly number gathered at the cemetery grounds last Wednesday to make their selection of lots. A prominent large lot was first voted to Mrs. Webber, without charge; if she wished to transfer the remains of Rev. L. P. Webber to these grounds. The choice of the remaining lots, at their appraised value, ranging from ten to twenty dollars, was then put up at auction; and Mr. J. McCoy had the privilege of the first choice at a premium of two dollars. The bidding was not very active, as the last applicant was sure of a good selection, but everyone seemed willing to bid a small premium, and some thirty were chosen. As soon as possible the area will be inclosed and adorned, but the progress of improvement will depend altogether upon the co-operation of the people of the valley. It ought to be a matter of pride now, that it may be a matter of comfort when the inevitable changes occur.

An anti-Coolie delegation made a raid on the Chinamen employed on Mr. Raine's ranch on Tuesday night. They tore down all the houses occupied as Chinese quarters. The action was occasioned by the refusal of Mr. Raine to employ white labor unless he could obtain it as cheaply as Chinese. In Los Angeles, yesterday afternoon, two Mexicans, Santiago Arvallo and Jose Jesus Yorba, met at the corner of Commercial and Los Angeles streets, when the latter immediately drew his revolver and shot the latter twice. The wounded man was unarmed, and the attack seemed to be unprovoked. One bullet went into Yorba's arm, near the shoulder, and the other into the wrist. Arvallo was immediately arrested, to await the action of the Grand Jury. At the annual meeting of the Anaheim Presbyterian Church and Congregation, held on Tuesday last, the following resolution was adopted: Resolved, That in accepting the resignation of Rev. John M. Allis as pastor of this church, we but faintly express our sorrow at the providence which calls for a separation of the relations existing between us. When we say his ministry for the brief time he has been in Anaheim has been to us most acceptable, and one we could wish might have been extended over a period of many years to come, got now brought to a close, we unite in the earnest prayer that God will go with him where he goes; that where he abides there may the Holy Spirit also dwell, making him a blessing to the people to whom he is called, and his broader field of labor a fruitful field indeed, yielding a rich garner of souls for Christ. From Friday's Daily. The Anaheim Dramatic Association held an election of officers last evening. The courts were quiet yesterday. The night patrol is killing the business of the Justice. Mr. Addis sold his new house on Palm Street yesterday to a party from Los Angeles. Through trains will probably not commence running before Monday or Tuesday. This morning the Central Pacific Railroad Co. took possession of the notice given to the plaintiff. Meeting of the Literary Society. The Anaheim Literary Society met at their hall on Monday evening. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Messrs. Ed. Shubert and J. P. Zeyn were elected members of the Society. The following officers were elected for the next term: Victor Montgomery, President; H. Blanken, Vice-President; Fred Rimpau, Secretary; H. Cohn, Treasurer, and A. G. Beebe, Sergeant-at-Arms. A committee of three, consisting of Mrs. P. C. McKinnie, Miss Addis and Miss Des Granges were appointed to render a decision on the debate of the evening, which was, Resolved, That the right of suffrage should be accorded to women of legal age. The debate was opened by Mr. E. F. Cahill, in the affirmative, and Fred W. Athearn, in the negative. The decision of the committee was given in favor of the negative. The subject for the next debate is, Resolved, that the granting of subsidies to corporations is conducive to public prosperity. Messrs. Theo Lynill, D. E. Miles, J. M. Guinn and T. A. Cord on the affirmative, and Messrs. W. M. McFadden, M. Mendelson, T. W. Cook and T. S. Grimshaw on the negative. Miss Addis, D. R. Payne and W.H. Henderson were selected for declamation. It was resolved that the programme committee meet with the committee from the Orange Literary Society, to make such arrangements as may be necessary for the debate between the two Societies. Sidewalks on a Scientific Basis. EDS. GAZETTE—Yesterday evening, as I was strolling down one of the principal streets of Anaheim, I saw a certain storekeeper, who shall be nameless, engaged in earnest conversation on the sidewalk with a Granger. So earnest indeed was the conversation, and so animated were his gestures, that my attention was irresistibly drawn to its subject matter, which was as follows: Store-keeper—No, my good sir, a man who is thoroughly conversant with the mechanical arts has a great advantage over others, through all the walks of life, in every trade and calling. Now, if you will observe for a moment the conformation of this sidewalk in front of my door, you will notice a gentle inclination from every of the remaining lots, at their appraised value, ranging from ten to twenty dollars, was then put up at auction, and Mr. J. McCoy had the privilege of the first choice at a premium of two dollars. The bidding was not very active, as the last applicant was sure of a good selection, but everyone seemed willing to bid a small premium,and some thirty were chosen. As soon as possible the area will be inclosed and adorned, but the progress of improvement will depend altogether upon the co-operation of the people of the valley. It ought to be a matter of pride now, that it may be a matter of comfort when the inevitable change comes. After the transfers from the church lot in town are made, may it be long ere the ground is broken except for adornment; and when the time is come may our dead be buried in a pleasant place, quiet and natural, in a place of trees and flowers, and birds that the outward show may be compared with the inward thought,"He hath done all things well." Mr Josiah McCoy has the plat, and will be glad to show it to any who may desire to purchase. R.S. Deeds Filed. A. Robinson, trustee, to C.

Letters for the following persons remain uncalled for at Wells,Fargo & Co's Express; The courts were quiet yesterday. The night patrol is killing the business of the Justice. Mr. Addis sold his new house on Palm Street yesterday to a party from Los Angeles. Through trains will probably not commence running before Monday or Tuesday. This morning the Central Pacific Railroad Co. took possession of the Southern Pacific Branch. Frank Ganahl has received a telegram from Hon. P. D. Wigginton, requesting him to be in San Francisco on the 5th inst., and begin the campaign in that end of the district. The Republican Club held their meeting at the store of H. Blanken, on Wednesday evening. There was a good attendance, and eleven new members were added to the roll. Santa Ana will make a shipment of the products of that section for exhibition at Los Angeles. Among the productions we noticed a squash weighing 198 pounds and several samples of corn, among which were corn stalks measuring twelve and fifteen feet. It is pleasant to have San Diego to fall back upon whenever we run out of provisions. The Union of Tuesday says: "The steamer carried out the largest freight from this port last evening ever yet shipped. There was another large lot of flour for Wilmington and Los Angeles." The following are the shipments from the depot during the month ending August 31st: Brandy, 1,123 lbs; 75 horses; honey, 6,278 lbs; hides, 3,524 lbs; merchandise, 30,042 lbs; grain, 615,315 lbs; vinegar, 1,696 lbs; vegetables, 20,-779 lbs; wool, 94,663 lbs; wine, 49,053 lbs. Store-keeper—No, my good sir, a man who is thoroughly conversant with the mechanical arts has a great advantage over others, through all the walks of life, in every trade and calling. Now, if you will observe for a moment the conformation of this sidewalk in front of my door, you will notice a gentle inclination from every direction approaching the doorstep. The reason for, and the wisdom of this is manifest to a man acquainted with the laws of mechanics. You are, I have no doubt, aware of the fact that all driving wheels for machinery are made with a raised center, with a gentle decline from the center to its edges. Now I have applied that principle of mechanics to the construction of this sidewalk, so that every man, woman and child in passing here is irresistibly impelled, so to speak, to walk upon the highest part of this sidewalk, and thus they are compelled, often against their wills, to enter my store!! The Granger here took his departure, thoroughly impressed with the importance of studying mechanical arts. Thermometrical Record.

Swain to Miss Pinkie Armstrong, formerly of Los Angeles. Call's-trophy—A mouse; London pays nearly one-third of the whole income-tax of England. That our ancestors were worthy people, our inherited virtues testify; that they were agreeable people to one another, the existence of posterity demonstrates; but would they be agreeable to us? Should we like to have them to dine, for example, and for our evening companies? Some of them we should like, undoubtedly, and would admire as well as esteem; but we mean the query in a very general way, and to embrace the average body of our ancestors who moved in, and constituted, reputable society. The queer customs of their period we lay out of the account. Finding themselves unable in this age of the world to get a dinner—or a meal by which they would deserate that word—at noon, they would accommodate themselves to the riper civilization that dines after the gas is lighted. They in their time partook of food after their manner, and of drink, whereof they partook of a great deal too much. The question is not whether we would be content to exist after their manner; it is whether, supposing them to be translated—to our time and the customs of it, we should esteem them eligible social acquaintances. Your very-great-grandfather, for example, and your great-grandmother, for example, are seated at our hospitable board. The hair that is gathered into an eel-skin down his back is gray; she is in the bloom of youth. To allay the pangs of such hunger as she is blessed withal, she transfers a fowl from the dish to her plate. "Odds, boddikins," says he, "a wing is enough for a chit like you," and forthwith transfers the delicacy from her plate to his own cuts off the pinion which he returns upon his own fork. Unaffected and agreeable episode, is it not? At the old gentleman's request you have invited a brisk young fellow of the period to meet Miss, the great-grand-mother. He turns out to be a drummer from a Birmingham house, who is in the hardware line. These youth were in no small social consideration at that epoch. A delightful ear, he combines with the fascinating manners of the insular snob the accomplishments of the buck of the period. About the fourth course he is drunk, and after a number of remarks that would lay him in danger of fine for vulgar language, is removed by the servants with the dishes before the desert is brought in.

Mr. Josiah and will be glad may desire to An interesting account is given by the Anglo-Jewish-Association of Jews in India known as Beni-Israel (Children of Israel). They are supposed to have come to India one thousand years ago. They dress like the Hindoos, use the Hindoo language, and know but little about Hebrew. They observe the Sabbath day strictly and follow the Levitical code, but they associate but little with the Jews, owing to the difference in costume and language. Even a nine-penny calico can be made to look neat and tasty by using the "Domestic Fasbions." Mrs. Brown desires to call the attention of the ladies to her large stock of millinery and fancy goods. She has been adding to her stock every week, and is confident that she can please both old and young, rich and poor, for her prices will defy competition.
