Three Chinamen, living on San Pedro street, in the vicinity of Mr. T. A. Garey's nursery, were robbed of $300 last night by several masked men.

No other rows occurred. —Morton is probably elected Supervisor from the Second District by a small majority. His opponent was Hinds, the present Supervisor. —Our town, last evening, was full of sweet sounds. Both the string and the brass bands were practicing and the melodious strains were wafted on every breeze. —An enterprising gentleman on Centre street has purchased ten bottles of champagne, which he intends opening as soon as the news comes that Hayes and Wheeler are elected. May he live long and Be(e)be happy. —a man named Houche, while gunning about nine miles from the city, yesterday received a severe wound in the face from the accidental discharge of both barrels of his gun.

This they refused to do, whereupon the robbers cut the faces and hands of the Chinamen with their knives, and burned the soles of their feet with a candle until they succeeded in forcing the secret from them. The robbers have not yet been apprehended, but they are supposed to be the same parties who committed a similar outrage in the vicinity of Agricultural Park, last week.—Express. —For reference we give below the vote cast in the Fourth Supervisorial District: ANAHEIM.

[Regular Correspondence of the Gazette.] The election made considerable excitement, but no brawling or drunkenness marred the expression of the will of the people. The Republican majority was 46; total vote 190. The only "scratching" was on Supervisor, by which Lockhart gained two votes, and came out six ahead of his ticket. On account of the division in the Democratic ranks, their almost solid vote for Spurgeon may be considered by him as a great compliment, and shows how solidly that party votes together. In the state election of Oct., 1875, this precinct polled 111 votes; since then Fountain Valley township and precinct has been cut off and yet the increase in one year is over 70 per cent. The actual increase in what is now Westminster precinct is over 100 per cent, or more than double in one year. Estimating for those who failed to vote, and for new settlers not yet 6 months in the State or 80 days in the county, and the population of Westminster precinct may be set down at about one thousand. Niuey new voters were registered here. Land matters are active, as you may have inferred from the lack of a letter last week. Henry W. Marden has bought 20 acres north of Bessonett, and Arthur O. Hawkins 20 acres north of Marden. J. H. Fisher has bought 40 acres near town. Mr. A. M. Byram of Iowa, and party, have engaged houses, and will be here again with their families next week.

But these suggestions about wind-breaks apply to the whole valley, and I am glad to see A SPIRITAL SEANCE. And the incidents Which Transpired Thermal. Eda. GAZETTE:—Allow me to gratify the curiosity of your many readers by giving a brief report of what occurred at our place on the evening of the 5th. There were present, besides our family, the Meers. F. and J. Keelar, the celebrated wonder workers, Judge Swift, Mr. Walker, and wives of Santa Ana, besides some sixteen others. After improvising a cabinet, by removing the kitchen door and placing a curtain up, with a single piece of black muslin with a large square cut out, and two smaller ones on each side above the curtain, two boxes with holes for a rope to pass through were securely fastened to the floor by means of HINGES AND SCREWS. Some quilts were hung across to hide the stove and kitchen traps. These were all the preparations used. After the brother-Keeler seated themselves the curtain dropped, and they were both tied with their hands behind them, the rope passing through the holes, firmly tying their legs down. A light was called, and Judge Swift and Mr. Welch were requested to examine them; they expressed satisfaction as to their security. The lights and curtain were turned down, when the most wonderful exhibition of invisible power was made. A guitar was played, bells rung, and thrown out of the aperture, hands of all sizes were seen; one seemed to be reaching down from above the door. Meanwhile the music and bells were heard. I SAW THE HAND With the bells clasped in it, at one time. Then the offer was made for those that wished to be seated inside in a chair with their hands tied to the mediums. Several did so, all with different experiences, which they could describe far better than I. It will be interesting to many to know that Judge Swift, while inside, request-ed to have writing on his shirt bosom. When he come out we had the privilege of seeing plainly written the word "Medium." After repeated examinations, always finding them in the same condition, the MUSIC AND BELL-HINGING Went on; a moment's silence, and then a tambourine was thrown out; a in order to dispose of the wind. What I wrote before, and what we want, is a wind-break to disperse the wind and break it into fragments if it comes too strong for our good. When some one asked Paddy why he did not put any glass in his window sash, he replied that all he wanted was to keep out only the coarsest of the cold. No here it is only the coarsest of the wind we want any shelter from, and only then a few times during the year. The hot blasts from Mohave rarely reach Westminster. But these suggestions about wind-breaks apply to the whole valley, and I am glad to see that they find favor. Our people here may fairly be proved for careless culture of their orchards. Localities, where orchards are and will be the only dependence, take care of them much better. The land here is so rich and water so easy to be had, that the temptation has been irresistible to plant crops among the growing trees. But it is a mistake. Our tall corn must injure the trees, and very few notice how great the injury is. In an orchard near San Jose are two rows of trees, 24 feet apart; one is pear, standards, and the next is apricot on plum stock. The trees have been planted only six year, yet the suckers from the plum stocks are already rising from the ground fourteen feet away from the trees, and have more than half crossed the space between the two rows. This shows how roots run. It has been estimated that the roots of a tree extend as far from the trunk as the tree is high, and they need all the ground and all the richness and moisture of it, and they will not do their best unless they have it all. Dryer localities will heed these hints. Our people will be greatly disappointed in the growth and fruitfulness of their trees in the future, unless they also pay attention to them. The amount and fine quality of our fruit crop this year only shows that nature has been very prodigal of her gifts in spite of our neglect, but it does not show that she cannot be tired out. Weeds are just as bad as corn or grain, and look far worse, and are still more unprofitable. I commend to you, and hope you will print some day, the following article on "Transplanting Trees" from the Fruit Recorder. [We will publish the article from the Recorder in a future number.—EDS.

The party of deer-hunters returned from San Diego county last week. They evidently killed all the foolish game in that vicinity, or purchased hides, for there were twenty strung on the rear of their wagon box.

Mr. Barrickow has commenced work, enlarging the upper Semi-tropical Ditch from its mouth to the Burwell Hill. The enlargement will be sufficient to carry water for both ditches to that point.
