The canvass among the candidates for town offices is getting quite lively. Ice in large quantities is being manufactured in San Bernardino. At Pomona, on Saturday, the residence of P. C. Tonner was destroye1 by fire. The small boy guesseth what he is to get and the little lady wondereth what kind of a doll it is to be. A fine American mare, valued at $200, belonging to Mr. John Gwin, died suddenly yesterday. Those who are fond of shooting can find plenty of quail just outside of the willows north-west of town.

The Express says that Early Lyon, well known in Los Angeles, died of small-pox in the pest house on Tug-s-day morning. Deceased was a California pioneer, and at one time held the position of United States Deputy Marshal. Messrs. D. & G. D. Plato received some California raisins yesterday, put up by R. B. Blowers, at Woodland. It would be well for some of our raisin manufacture to take a look at them, as they might get an idea in regard to preparing raisins for the market which would be useful to them. Mr. Stagg, of the Planters', has been preparing for the Christmas festivities by making some experiments on that time-honored Christmas beverage known as Tom and Jerry. He called our reporter over yesterday to pass an opinion on his endeavors, and The Express gave particulars in regard Mr. N. A. McDonnellioned yesterday: ald, Road Master o had his leg broken ner.

Just received from the foundry, an assortment of suitable cuts for visiting cards. Call and see them. Mr. R. Leudke put on exhibition yesterday his wonderful "farm yard" which has delighted both old and young for so many years. It is an ingenious piece of workmanship and well worth seeing. The shipments from the depot this morning were as follows: 6410 feet lumber, 6000 shingles, 400 brick, 1 bbl lime,3 kegs 3 bbls,1 case tallow,4 pipes wine,1 box dry goods,box trimnlings,1 case goods. A man named Theodoclo Yorba was accidentally shot at the Oriental Hotel Los Angeles, Sunday evening.

Frank Wolf and Wm Pendleton, of Downey City, who have been hunting in the vicinity of Fort Tejon for the past ten or twelve days, killed and brought home twenty-five deer and antelope. Telegrams were received here yesterday by Mr. M. Calisher announcing the loss of the steamer Montana, one of the line of steamers plying between San Francisco and Mexican ports.

Montgomery, Beebe and Barham were appointed to take charge of the books put up by R. B. Blowers at Woodland. It would be well for some of our raisin manufactures to take a look at them, as they might get an idea in regard to preparing raisins for the market which would be useful to them. Mr. Stagg, of the Planters', has been preparing for the Christmas festivities by making some experiments on that time-honored Christmas beverage known as Tom and Jerry. He called our reporter over yesterday to pass an opinion on his endeavors, and he pronounced it a complete success. If there is anything said reporter is a judge of, it is Tom and Jerry. A social reunion and basket picnic of the people of Iowa, who may have settled in Los Angeles county, or who may be visiting therein, without regard to age, sex or previous condition of servitude, will be held on Christmas day in the beautiful live-oak grove on San Pasqual. A genial time with the wide-awake people of the Hawkeye State on that occasion is one of the necessities of the case. A fair correspondent of the Keokuk "Gate City" is writing up this section of the country, and will furnish that journal an account of the affair at San Pasqual. Well, it is said those Iowa girls are the best cooks—but, hold on; no comparison; just go and see how an Iowa crowd, improved by a California climate, enjoys itself. Star. From Thursday's Daily. Trade dollars are taken at par at the depot. A large number of passengers came down on the train from Los Angeles yesterday. The examination at the public school began yesterday. It will close at noon to-day. Seven hundred and seventy-four sacks of barley were shipped to San Diego from Anaheim Landing, per steamer Orizaba. The glory gained by the capture of Mrs. Castoreny will hardly requite Wartenburg for the loss of his $100 mare. The exposure and hard driving of the trip proved fatal to the animal. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 197 sacks barley; 55 sacks corn; 2 bbls 2 kegs wine; 1 trunk, 1 valise; 25 pkgs hh goods; 3 sks potatoes; 1 box butter; 1 keg.

Obed Macy is now "manager" of the Lafayette Saloon in Los Angeles. Farmers having good barley to sell can find a purchaser at Hinde's Brewery. It is reported that sheep are dying in the vicinity of San Luis Rey, owing to the scarcity of feed. The cloudy sky and other signs of rain yesterday caused the sheep-ralsars and farmers to feel in good spirits. Twenty-five car-loads of railroad hands and material were dispatched to Indian Wells on Tuesday. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 197 sacks barley; 55 sacks corn; 2 bbls 2 kegs wine; 1 trunk, 1 valise; 25 pkgs hh goods; 3 sks potatoes; 1 box butter; 1 keg. Herald: The surveying party under the County Surveyors of Los Angeles and San Bernardino, which is now engaged in running the boundary line between the two counties, had reached the Rincon last Sunday morning, and was working northward. The survey will probably be completed by the first of January. The Union Sunday School of Orange will give a concert on Christmas evening, beginning at 7 o'clock. Miss Rider's concert exercise, "Star of Bethlehem," will be given by eight classes of boys and girls; also, a fresco exercise, "Bear the Cross and ye shall wear the Crown," by four classes; and a pretty sacred cantata for closing.

Just about sundown last evening, the pretty little village of Orange-five miles distant, could be plainly seen from our office. The atmosphere for the past day or two has been peculiarly clear, enabling one to distinguish objects at a great distance. It is noticeable, too, that noises, such as the blowing of the whistle or the sound of the fan at the Alden factory, can be heard with unusual distinctness. The Express gives the following participants in regard to the accident to Mr. N. A. McDonald, which we mentioned yesterday: "Mr. N. A. McDonald, Road Master of the S. P. R. R., had his leg broken in a singular manner. He was sitting on a hand-car with his legs hanging over the side of the same; the car was being propelled at good speed, and when in the neighborhood of Downey, a team was driven across the track, just in advance of the car. Either the team moved too slow or the car moved too fast, for they came in collision. Mr. McDonald's left leg was caught between the car and the wagon wheel, and below the knee. He was brought to this city on the Wilmington train, and the limb reset by Drs. Kurtz, Stanway and Wise." A Female Amazon. Some time ago, Mr. M. Callisher placed in the hands of Scott & Montgomery, for collection, a certain promissory note against Mrs. Marie Castoreny. The lady was summoned to the office of the attorneys, and while there requested to see the note, and as soon as she obtained possession of it, destroyed it by tearing it in pieces. A warrant was sworn out against her and given to Deputy Sheriff Barham. His first endeavor to arrest the woman was chronicled in our issue of Dec. 15. On Wednesday, Mr. Barham, accompanied by Messrs. Peter Richards and Louis Wartenburg, started "to conquer or to die." They reached the house of Mrs. Castoreny about five o'clock in the afternoon, and found only the husband and the children there. Mr. Castoreny informed them that his wife had gone to Los Angeles, and would be back on Thursday, and would come into town and deliver herself up to the proper authorities. Mr. Barham then made a search of the house, without finding her, and was just preparing to go back without his prisoner, when the woman jumped out of a small gulch, in which she had secreted her that a good way to "make a raise" was to settle with one's creditors, say, pay 25 cts or 60 cts on the dollar, instead of being so foolish as to fret and worry and work for years in the effort to pay dollar for dollar and interest! But I would like to hear Messrs. Davis or Steinhart's opinion on the subject and get their advice, as they are both older and more experienced men than some of my former advisers. But enough of all this fun and joking. Let us see what Mr. Steinhart has to say. His statement is that "at that time Mr. Richard Heimann gave in the assessment list of Heimann & George himself." I have again looked over my card of yesterday, and find nothing contained therein to make this statement on Steinhart's part necessary. No matter what I might think him able or not able to do, I have certainly not accused him of having altered my assessment list, but I do most positively assert that he obtained the same and my signature thereto, by knowingly and wilfully misrepresenting facts, and by falsely stating to me that he had assessed every store in town $10,000 for their stock (excepting Mr. Callisher) and as we, at that time, carried, probably, as heavy a stock as any of the other houses, I felt, of course, bound to submit to this assessment. The entire list was drawn up in the same way, which, in fact, is the manner in which, probably 99 men out of 100 give in their assessment. I gave in the description of the property, whilst he assessed the valuation. All the figures which he thus gave me, he pretended to be the figures put down to my neighbors, and I had no right to expect exceptional treatment. I willingly signed my name to the paper and never thought of the matter again until it was too late to undo the mischief. As far the brilliant idea is concerned, of which Davis accuses me, that my object was to better my credit, this accusation is so flimsy and so "thin" that it does not deserve criticism. Mr. Steinhart had, of course, to say something. I did not expect him to leave my statement unanswered, and this is just about all that he could possibly find to say. The principal question has thus been reduced to a mere question of veracity between Mr. Steinhart and myself, and there I am perfectly willing to rest the case and submit it to the judgment of Mrs. Castoreny about five o'clock in the afternoon, and found only the husband and the children there. Mr. Castoreny informed them that his wife had gone to Los Angeles, and would be back on Thursday, and would come into town and deliver herself up to the proper authorities. Mr. Barham then made a search of the house, without finding her, and was just preparing to go back without his prisoner, when the woman jumped out of a small gulch, in which she had secreted herself, and ran to the officers, shouting, "Here I am! What do you want of me?" As she passed, the Deputy Sheriff caught her by the arm, and said, "You are my prisoner!" The infuriated woman turned and struck him a blow in the face, causing the blood to flow copiously. Mr. Richards immediately sprang upon her, and by the united strength of both they succeeded in forcing her against the house. They then marched the struggling woman to the wagon and forced the hand-cuffs upon her. The husband, who in the mean time had retreated to the house where he was covered with Mr. Wartenberg's shot-gun, told her to go peaceably as he knew that the men were officers. She then resigned herself to the situation, and was conveyed to town. The party arrived here yesterday about noon. Quite a crowd assembled at the justice's office to watch the proceedings. Justice Bailey gave her in charge of Mr. Richards until she could secure bail, and get the council for her trial. She is reported as being quite wealthy. Deeds Filed.

EDITORS GAZETTE!—In answer to a card to the public signed by Richard Helmann, at present an aspirant for the office of Town Trustee, and before whom, if elected, will have to appear to have our taxes equalized, I will say to the taxpayers BEWARE of such a man and think well before you cast your ballot. In 1869 or 1870 this Mr. Helmann started business in Anaheim with a capital stock which amounted to no less than about from two to three hundred dollars, and in 1872 he gave his assessment to the Assessor, and certified to an accumulated wealth of twenty-four thousand one hundred and thirty-five dollars, which not only astonished the people of Anaheim, but the whole county of Los Angeles, as some of them thought Heimann & Co., not to be worth over two thousand dollars, by others still less; but as they wanted to appear before the world as the richest in Anaheim, and have their names and firm well represented, therefore the large taxation had to be given to the assessor; but when the taxes became due, and they found the sum too large, they altered their course in one or two years after which we will prove to the public. P. Davis & Bro., A.Langenberger & Co., B.Dreyfus & Co., H.Kroeger, and others were but a mite in comparison to the rich firm of Helmann & Co.; but had this searcher of records referred to the assessment list of one year previous, or that of one year later, when our relative was not assessor and also to the assessment made by Mr. Steinhart for School Assessment, of 1874 wherein this Helmann & Co are only assessed $5,240 while P.Davis & Bro. stand assessed over $10,-000 we are confident he would have exonerated Mr. Steinhart from the charge of unequal taxation. But the people of Anaheim will see that this Heimann loves himself best; but not his neighbor. They will know how to govern themselves at the coming election. Respectfully, PHILLIP DAVIS. [Who minds the Eleventh Commandment.] [Auditionen ent.] ANAHEIM, Dec. 20, 1876. Eds. ANAHEIM GAZETTE:—As there appears in this morning's Gazette a Card signed by Richard Helmann, in relation to my assessment of Messrs. Helmann & George in 1872, I beg to submit the following: At that time Mr. Richard Heimann gave me the assessment list of Messrs. Helmann & George himself,and swore it, and I did not alter the same in any respect whatever, but submitted it to the County Assessor,Mr.Botiller; just as I got it.I myself thought it again until it was too late to make this misheif. As far the brilliant idea is concerned, of which Davis accuses me, that my object was to better my credit, this accusation is so flimsy and so "thin" that it does not deserve criticism. Mr. Steinhart had,of course,say something.I did not expect him to leave my statement unanswered,and this is just about all that he could possibly find to say. The principal question has thus been reduced to a mere question of veracity between Mr. Steinhart and myself,and there I am perfectly willing to rest the case and submit it to the judgment of the people of Anaheim,who have known us both long enough to be able to form that judgment.Unlike Mr.Davis,i did not offer to force my conclusions upon other people.Whilst.of course,我有 own firm convictions.I took care in my first card to simply state the facts，leaving it to every man to make out of them what he chooses.I hereby bid the public good-bye. RICHARD HEIMANN,(Who minds eighth commandment.) [Auditionen ent.] Communication about our Candidates. We have noticed that three parties are now advertising for the office of City Marshal,and after mature consideration we have come to the conclusion that we need a man who speaks several languages so as to be able to speak and understand different nationalities,and with it to be fearless in the discharge of his duties,and thus avoid a repetition of the shameful shooting in our community,such as happened in Brea Canon,and back of Callisher's store.The man we find among us possessing the requisite qualifications to discharge these duties with credit to himself and our town (without disparagement with the other candidates) is Louis Wartenburg,born whom we hope will be elected by a handsome majority.TAX-PAYERS & VOTERS.

Anaheim Gazette:—As there appears in this morning's Gazette a Card signed by Richard Heimann, in relation to my assessment of Messrs. Heimann & George in 1872, I beg to submit the following: At that time Mr. Richard Heimann gave me the assessment list of Messrs. Heimann & George himself, and swore to it, and I did not alter the same in any respect whatever, but submitted it to the County Assessor, Mr Botiller, just as I got it. I myself thought it very large, but supposed that Mr. Heimann knew his business better than I did. Respectfully Yours, A. W. STEINHART. [Advertisement] ANAHEIM, Dec. 21, 1876. Eds. Gazette:—I am annihilated!—crushed to the earth! I feel as if I never shall get over this fearful blow! The picture drawn of "this Mr. Heimann" by this Mr. Davis is so appalling that it has quite unnerved me. Yet, I feel thankful for this, of course well meant, warning, whilst there is time to repent and reform. First of all (according to Mr. Davis' theory) in order to become qualified to act as one of the Board of Equalization, should I be honored with the election to the office of Town Trustee; I should be possessed of greater wealth. The great fault Mr. Davis finds is that Heimann & George were not thought worth over $2000, and by some less, but paid taxes in 1872-3 on $21,000. There is just the point where reform is needed. I have felt long ago, that I should have more money, and on the other hand that our town should have an assessor who will do greater justice "to the poor causes" than Mr. Steinhart did; and if these two little points could just be arranged, everything would be at once settled to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. Now, I believe that, if Mr. Davis and myself were to put our heads together, we could between us two just fix up things nicely, and so as to obtain these results. I know for my part the mode how to prevent an unjust and unequal taxation—and that is to vote for another man than Steinhart; and maybe Mr. Davis and his ward could advise me in turn how to make more money so as to be more eligible for office. There are some people who told me and indeed in every civilized portion of the Western Hemisphere. It combines with the soundest practical advice for the preservation and restoration of health, a large amount of interesting and amusing light reading, and the calendar, astronomical calculations, chronological items, etc., are prepared with great care,and will be found entirely accurate. This issue of Hostetter's Almanac for 1977 will probably be the largest edition of a medical work ever published in any country. The proprietors. Messrs. Hostetter & Smith, Pittsburgh, Pa., on receipt of a two cent stamp, will forward a copy by mail to any person who cannot procure one in his neighborhood.

CLASSEN & BENNERSCHEIDT. BARGAINS IN LAND! San Joaquin Rancho For Sale! The Large Tract of RICH AGRICULTURAL LAND, Located South-east of Santa Ana, known at the San Joaquin Ranch, has been sub-divided into small loss and tracts, and is now offered for Sale or Rent. To Actual Settlers on the most reasonable Terms. GENERAL FARMING AND FRUIT RAISING No better land can be found in the Santa Ana. The location is unsurpassed, being located on this route of the projected Los Angeles & San Diego R. R., which will pass through the tract, where a large town or business center must necessarily spring up as soon as these lands are settled. Newport Bay, The only practical Inside Harbor In Los Angeles County, extends several miles into the interior of the Ranch, and already affords superior shipping facilities. Embraced within this tract is a larger amount of first-class land than can be found in a body of unimproved land in Southern California.
