Austin was riding down Centre street yesterday afternoon, his horses became frightened at a load of hides and became entirely unmanageable. They ran the entire length of Los Angeles street, and were only stopped when they reached the heavy sand about a mile north of town. It was an almost miraculous escape, as neither horses, buggy nor man were injured. —Mr. T. S. Grimishaw hands us the following report: The Anaheim Literary Society met on Monday evening. Mr. J. Fischer in the chair. The following question was discussed: Resolved That the fear of punishment has greater influence upon the human mind than the hope of reward. Mr. J. M. Guinn opened the debate, and was followed by his opponent, Mr. E. F. Cahill. The decision was given in favor of the negative. The question for discussion at the next meeting is Resolved That the President of the United States should be elected by popular vote. The affirmative will be sustained by Theo. Lynill and the negative by M. A. Mendelson. Declarations will be given by Victor Montgomery and D. R. Payne. From Thursday's Daily. —There were ten vessels unloading freight at Wilmington yesterday. —Two car loads of brea were shipped from the depot yesterday morning. It is used extensively by the Los Angeles Works. —The benevolent countenance of Mr. M. Kremer, Tax-Collector, can be seen at his temporary office at the Anaheim Hotel. He came up from San Juan Capistrano on Wednesday evening, stealing upon us “like a — in the night,” with his tax-books and receipts. All who wish to save a trip to Los Angeles can interview our urbane friend and have an opportunity to pay their taxes and license. —We are informed that the famous Fabbri Opera Troupe are anxious to visit Anaheim if they can meet with encouragement to do so. They propose to come and give a concert if they can dispose of one hundred tickets. Mr. Arthur Helmann has started a subscription list, and if enough of our music-loving citizens subscribe we shall have the pleasure of listening to a first class opera troupe in Anaheim. —Notwithstanding the heroic attempts made toward the improvement of the town in the way of new buildings and starting new industries, our friend Louis Wartenberg has actually removed those sacks of potatoes which for so long a time have obstructed the sidewalk in front of his establishment and been the terror of all midnight pedestrians, and the cause of many a downfall. If Louis goes on in this way, cleaning up and making improvements, we shall not hold ourselves responsible for the result, but will endeavor to use our influence with the managers of the “Casa Verde” at Stockton. —We were gratified the other day at receiving a letter from our friend George A. Tiffany, formerly associate proprietor of the Los Angeles Express. George is now located in San Francisco, and has purchased an interest in the large printing house known as the “Western Newspaper Union” — an association which prints the “Innards” of about 50 papers in this State alone. One very remarkable fact, which we have noticed since Tiffany’s connection with this concern, is that it has secured the contract for printing the Weekly Rescue, the official organ of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars. We are glad to notice that organization has rewarded him for the unswerving fidelity with which he has always advocated its principles, by precept and practice. As for our membership, etc. Of course the main question elsewhere is “what’s there elected?” etc. Each piece and yet fearful; we are definite information. We knew our section rapidly, but were hard putting this precinct dawn in the county for size; turns show only four larger vote than Westmeeneder, and did two houses and Mr. Hanna’s nearby the entire section is so last Summer one field estimated that we have a population of 1000.

Two car loads of brea were shipped from the depot yesterday morning. It is used extensively by the Los Angeles Gas Works. Mr. Louis Wartenburg is remodeling his store on Centre street. A portion of it will be occupied as a barber shop by Mr. Patrick. Mr. S. A. Hawkins and family, former residents of Anaheim, returned yesterday after an absence of several years. They intend to locate in Santa Ana. The gosses are reported as being very plenty at the Alamitos ranch. They are very fat at this season of the year and afford fine sport for the hunters. The following jarors have been summoned from this section to attend the District Court, December 1st: R. Helmann, B. F. Porter, J. T. Tedford, R. J. Wolf, W. H. Wiley and W. S. Nell. The following treight was shipped from the depot this morning: 2 beer kegs, 1 box butter, 1 box bottles, 3 empty bbls, 1 bdl pelts, 1 bbl lime, 2 boxes nails, 1 sack wool 1 joint well pipe, 185 packs corn, 1 car of brea. The train from Los Angeles did not arrive at Anaheim until eleven o'clock last night. The delay was caused by the engine of the overland train running off the track near Winter Station. The run from Mohave to Los Angeles (one hundred miles) was made in three hours and two minutes.

[Regular Correspondence of the Gazette.] As R. S. finds the pressure of other duties prevents him from writing you regularly, we have consented, at his request, to act as your correspondent for the present. It is to be hoped some one more capable will be found ere long to take the place. Of course the main question, here as elsewhere, is "what's the latest? who's elected?" etc. Each party is hopeful and yet fearful; we are eager for some definite information. We knew our section was growing rapidly, but were hardly prepared for putting this precinct down as the fifth in the county for size. Still the returns show only four places polling a larger vote than Westminster. When we came here, three years ago there were but two houses between ours and Mr. Hanna's, near Anaheim. Now the entire section is settled, and was hot summer one field of corn. It is Death Films. J P Jones to E.A Van Vlech—S of the E of the NE of section 25, Tp 5, S, R W; $1,771,00.

A Good Vaulter. Ireland was the most extraordinary natural jumper I ever saw, though I have seen many who excelled him when aided by the springboard and other artificial contrivances. I have walked with Ireland, and he has suddenly left my arms, and with the impetus of a couple of paces, jumped over a turnpike gate. In these days of practical joking, he was foremost in frolic, his animal spirits were great, and he was vain and fond of display. One trick of his was, if he saw a horse held in waiting for its rider, to stand aside, as if uncertain which way he should turn for a moment, and, when he saw the rider coming out, to spring clear over the back of the horse, with a ridiculous appearance of anxiety to get out of the gentleman's way. What made this more singular was that Ireland always walked off as if he had performed no extraordinary feat at all, leaving those who had beheld the jump doubting the evidence of their own senses, and liable, of course to be doubly doubted, if they narrated the occurrence. One of his stage exhibitions was to throw a somersault over a wagon and eight horses, over a dozen grenadiers standing at present arms with fixed bayonets. Sir Thomas Picton, a man of unquestionable courage, went to witness the exhibition; but when he saw the men placed, he trembled-like a leaf and kept his head down while Ireland jumped; nor did he look up till he had first asked, "Has he done it?" When assured he had, he said: "A battle's nothing to that." —Records of a Stage Veteran. SELLING OUT THE CENTENARY. What Will Be Done With The Exhibition Buildings. There will be a general sale of all the buildings belonging to the Centennial Board of Finance on Thursday November 30th, at 11 o'clock A.M. The list comprises the main building and carriage annex, agricultural hall, with wagon and pomological annexes, the art annex, photographers' exhibition building, shoe and leather buildings, judges' hall, butter and cheese building, guard, stationhouses, and various other small buildings. Particulars of the sale will be furnished in pamphlet form, on application, ten days before the appointed time. The sale was authorized by the Board of Finance at its session on Monday. The expectation that most of the State buildings on the grounds would be presented to the city at the close of the exhibition will probably prove not well founded, as with only one exception they are of frame and, aside from the danger of fire, the continuous expense in painting and repairing would soon equal the original cost of the structures, thus detracting from their actual value for park purposes. The Ohio State building, however, unlike the rest, was erected almost entirely of stone, and has been so substantially built that it will for years preserve its present appearance as an ornament. The original intention was to present this structure to the city,and at recent meetings of the Ohio State Board,the subject of its transfer to the Park Commissioners has been considered. Although no definite action has been taken in the matter, it is probable that some arrangement satisfactory to both the donors and the recipients will be made at an early day. The German pavillion,a substantially built structure,may also in due time become the property of the city,as the German Commissioners generally favor the project of presenting it to the Park Commission. A member of the Commission some time since wrote to the Minister of Foreign Affairs at Berlin for instructions in regard to the proposed transfer,and an answer favorable to the plan of permitting it to remain permanently is confidently expected. So far as present known,它 seems likely that the other minor buildings will be sold to the highest bidder or disposed of at private sale at the close of the exhibition.Purchasers for many of them are numerous,and will double lesshe obtained. Of course the main question, here as elsewhere, is "what's the latest? who's elected?" etc. Each party is hopeful and yet fearful; we are eager for some definite information. We knew our section was growing rapidly, but were hardly prepared for putting this precinct down as the fifth in the county for size. Still the returns show only four places polling a larger vote than Westminster. When we came here, three years ago there were but two houses between ours and Mr. Hanna's, near Anaheim. Now the entire section is settled, and was last Summer one field of corn. It is estimated that we have in this precinct a population of 1000. A remark made by a good-natured German Democrat in your town on last Tuesday evening, greatly amused us. Our returns had just been read, 46 majority for Hayes and 52 for Lockhart, when he said, "veli, you shoost wait till dey gets von or doo zalooons by Westmeeneder, and den see how much Rebublicans dey hab." Comment is unnecessary; we leave others to draw their own inferences. We are sorry to write of the sad accident which befell our Rev. S. B. King. Last Friday evening as he was leading one of his cows, it started to run, catching his leg in a coll of the rope and dragging him. Before he could stop the cow or loosen himself from the rope his left leg was broken just above the knee. Dr. A. J. Howe set the limb, and reports it as doing well. The entire community sympathize with the sufferer and will do all they can for his comfort. Dr. James McCoy is very sick. Drs. Yocum and Hardin of Anaheim are attending him. We hope in our next to report him as better. In riding about the colony we find improvements on all sides. Mr. Strong is building quite an addition to his house. Rev. A. J. Van Anda is making extensive improvements in the houses bought of Con Howe. Z. Griswold has put up quite a large stable. Con Howe is building a new house, 24 by 36, on the town site, just east of Dr. J. A. Howe. Thos. Edwards intends building two new houses; one two story and twelve rooms, on the town site, and the other on his 40-acre piece, two miles east of the town. Several parties are building chimneys and porches and in other ways improving their homes. Mr. T. D. Culter has arranged his blacksmith shop so as to "blow" the fire with a fan-wheel instead of bellows. The carpenters have finished the outside of the Methodist church, and the plasterers have put on the first coat inside. This church will be dedicated the third Sabbath in December, when we shall give a more extended notice of the building, their membership, etc. The concert given two weeks ago for the benefit of the Presbyterian church fund, netted $50 25 above all expenses. The ladies wish to thank the citizens of Anaheim and vicinity, as well as of our own immediate neighborhood, for their patronage. A fair and festival is now thought of, to be The following article forcibly illustrates the necessity of punctuation. It can be read in two ways, making a very bad man or a very good man, the result depending upon the manner in which it is punctuated. It is well worth the study of teachers and pupils: "He is an old and experienced man in vice and wickedness he is never found in opposing the works of iniquity he takes delight in the downfall of his neighbors he never rejoices in the destruction of the peace of society he takes no pleasure in serving the Lord he is uncommonly diligent in sowing discord among his friends and acquaintances he takes no pride in laboring to promote the cause of Christianity he has not been negligent in endeavoring to stigmatize all public teachers he makes no efforts to subdue his evil habits he strives hard to build up Satan's kingdom he lends no aid to the support of the gospel among the heaten he contributes largely to the evil adversity he pays great heed to the devil he will never go to heaven he must go where he will receive the just recompense of reward." Santa Barbara Press: There is considerable sailing among the little folks in different parts of the town. There were two deaths last night from diphtheria. A dispatch to the Reuter Telegram Company from St. Petersburg says the Czar's speech has found a general enthusiastic echo throughout the Russian Empire. Town councils, trades merchants, the clergy, and in fact all classes, unanimously declare, without qualification, their joyful readiness to contribute to and fulfill to the utmost all the demands which the Czar and Empire might make for the protection of the interests of Russia. They place their fortunes and all their resources at the disposal of the Government to provide necessary means. The Sonoma Land and Fruit Association has purchased a large and magnificent tract of land in Sonoma valley to grow upon the same almonds and other nuts, and grapes for wine and raisins. A prominent feature in the enterprise is the production of the profitable articles of commerce by concentrated capital on the corporation principal. The exceeding profit of nut bearing trees, and the growing favor of California raisins and wine in the market, are such that under good management the aforesaid enterprise can be made as profitable, useful and pro-time became the property of the city, as the German Commissioners generally favor the project of presenting it to the Park Commission. A member of the Commission some time since wrote to the Minister of Foreign Affairs at Berlin for instructions in regard to the proposed transfer, and an answer favorable to the plan of permitting it to remain permanently is confidently expected. So far as at present known, it seems likely that the other minor buildings will be sold to the highest bidder or disposed of at private sale at the close of the exhibition. Purchasers for many of them are numerous, and fair prices will doubtless be obtained—Philadelphia Press. BAD FOR THE DOO—"Deer Bill: Doount kum to see me enny moar for a while enny way.

A fair festival is now thought of, to be given by the same society for the same fund, just before Christmas. Messrs. McCoy and Taylor have just finished a new set of well tools, and are now boring on Miss McCoy's land. Mr. Silkwood is boring northeast of the original colony, and Mr. Carey on the west end of the Westminster tract. Messrs. Ad Kell and Joe Hull returned from Sacramento Monday night, having spent 28 days in driving down. They report game abundant along the entire route, and the country from San Luis Obispo down, rapidly settling up; even the old sand plains of the Santa Maria country are proving desirable, and being sold and settled on. We hear considerable talk among stockholders of the Los Angeles Grange Store Co., over certain "Irish Dividends," lately declared, but do not know enough of the particular points to attempt any comments. Land seekers begin to visit us and we look for "lively times" in that line, as there is plenty land for sale. In the last GAZETTE "R.
