[FROM WEDNESDAY'S DAILY.] — Sheriff Alexander, Under Sheriff Rowan and Constable Bettis were visiting Anabeim yesterday. — There were several horses offered for sale yeaterday, but the buyers did not appear very plenty. — The regular monthly meeting of the Fire Company will be held at the school house this evening. — The Sheriff yesterday sold the land of Mr. Rowe, to satisfy a mortgage held by Mr. Sears.

Howe, of Garden Grove, was in town yesterday. He says the well-boring in that region is going on briskly, two wells having been finished on Tuesday and the borera being at work in three different places. And writing about wells puts us in mind to correct any wrong impression which may have been conveyed by an article in the Santa Ana Times of last week, which stated that several wells in Garden Grove had ceased flowing. This is not an unusual occurrence, and is not confined to any particular locality. The cessation of the water is not caused by a lack of that fluid, but by the accumulation of sand in the pipe. [FROM FRIDAY'S DAILY.] — The Los Angeles Base Ball Club have challenged the Tustin City Club. — Mr. Wiley, of the firm of Wiley & Ellis, was in town yesterday. — The shipments from the depot this morning were: 10 kegs beer, 6 barrels tallow, 53 bales wool. — Adolph Rimpau will start with his sheep for Arizona to-day.

Anaheim Literature ANAHEIM The members of the Society met at Kröger's Mr. Bettis, brought down a prisoner from Los Angeles yesterday. His name was Edward Alvarez, and he was charged with threatening the life of his wife Maria Molino. His trial will take place today. Star: We are gratified to be able to make the announcement that there is not a single case of small-pox either in the city or Hospital, and the last house in which small-pox existed was fumigated yesterday. The Board of Town Trustees meet on Friday, and the Tax Collector will then hand in his report. Those who have failed to pay their town taxes will save some costs by attending to the matter before Friday. One Frank Clark made his appearance in Justice Bailey's parlors yesterday, charged with battery. He was requested to put up thirty dollars for having been found guilty, or to take a trip to town for thirty days. When last heard from him was in the custody of the Marshal, hunting some friend to furnish the coin. We find the following plaintive howl in the San Francisco Call: "Anyone who will give information as to the whereabouts of Dr. Pierce Ellis, formerly of Andrea Station, San Fernando tunnel, and formerly of Anaheim, will greatly oblige his wife, Sarah Frances Ellis, Address, San Francisco Post Office, Cal. Country papers please copy." Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: A J Parker, 2 boxes mdse; J S Haywood, 1 belle iron; J Backa, 8 pkgs mdse; W T Heathman, 5 pkgs mdse; J Fischer, 1 case bitters; Cahen & Willard, 1 pkg dry-goods; M J Bundy, 1 box hardware; T J Harlin, 3 cases coal oil; S J Lowe, 100 joints well pipe, 1 starter; Wong Yon, 12 pkgs mdse; W Wallace, 15 pkgs household goods. Red's bondsmen did not lie in bed long yesterday morning. They were seized with a terrible anxiety to see the sun rise (the old man Rodgers' son.) They felt relieved when they saw the smiling countenance of D.R. At 10 o'clock the crowd assembled at the courtroom to hear the trial. D.R. was charged with having exhibited a deadly weapon in a threatening manner, dangerous to the Goldstein Brewery in general and the person of one Frank Clark in particular. Three reliable witnesses testified to the fact that Mr. Rodgers did draw a pistol and did cavort around with the aforesaid pistol in a very unreliable and undignified sort of a way. Red stood alone, a defendant, witness and counsel in the case, and testified vehemently to the fact that he "didn't draw no pistol," that he "wasn't doing nuffin," etc. His testimony conflicted slightly with the testimony of the witnesses for the prosecution notwithstanding he had taken his solemn oath to tell the truth. The Judge told Red he was sorry for him—we presume that he was sorry that there was no clause in the law, permitting confinement at hard labor for life. He told him that in view of the conflicting nature of the testimony, given in the case and his personal knowledge of Red's green pelts, 3 boxes butter, 1 bag, 29 bales wool. Mr. Wiley, of the firm of Wiley & Ellis, was in town yesterday. The shipments from the depot this morning were: 10 kegs beer, 6 barrels tallow, 53 bales wool. Adolph Rimpau will start with his sheep for Arizona to-day. We wish him a pleasant and prosperous journey. Several wagon loads of fine looking orange trees from the nurseries of Orange were hauled through town yesterday. Their destination is Riverside. We are prepared to do all kinds of plain and fancy printing in a superior manner and at low rates. Call at the GAZETTE office for your job printing. Edwardo Alvarez, who was brought up before Justice Bailey yesterday charged with threatening the life of his wife, was released from custody, it being conclusively proven that he was not dangerous, or likely to be so. There was a sharp discussion on Centre street yesterday, on the subject of religion, Bible teaching, etc., between several Bible sharps. There was considerable more display of foolishness on both sides than of good sound sense or knowledge of the Scriptures. The second number of the Argonaut has been received and the contents are as sparkling and vivacious as those which characterized the first number. We venture to predict that this paper will meet with substantial success. It pains our sensitive bosom to learn from the Express that Rodgers, while entering the grim portals of Clancy's dungeon, fell in a fit and struck his head against the door. Carpenters were immediately employed and the jail is now in as sound a condition as before the accident. The ball on Wednesday evening was very well attended, and as a matter of course everybody enjoyed themselves to their heart's content. The young gentlemen of the Union Club, having the management of these parties, should be proud of the success which has attended their exertions to please. We learn that the next will be a "Calico Ball." Some nights ago Officer Bohn arrested a horse which was straying about the streets without any owner, place of abode or occupation. The saddle on the beast he took to his own house; the horse was tied up. The next day the animal had been taken away. Mr. Bohn wishes to inform the man who took the horse that the saddle is in his possession and can be had by the payment of the charges thereon. Santa Monica Outlook: Wm. Spencer, of this place, is progressing very satisfactorily with his preparations to manufacture clay pipe. He now has a kiln of 4000 feet ready to burn. The specimens heretofore exhibited, which were burned on a small scale, are pronounced to be superior to the Sacramento pipe. The clay is considered the best that has yet been found in this State; and as the supply is challenged the Tustin City Club. Mr. Wiley, of the firm of Wiley & Ellis, was in town yesterday.

Ismaro Romero, who was arrested by officer Wartenburg on Tuesday, was sent to Los Angeles to-day to answer to several charges, among which are larceny, assault and rape. The following freight was shipped from the depot the this morning: 4 kegs beer, 1 box butter, 3 kegs, 1 box bottles, 11 pkgs saah, 1 transom, 39 doors, 2 bdls weights, 1 bdle cord, 1 tin turpentine, 95 bales wool, 14 bdls orange trees, 1 sack cabbage. Santa Monica Outlook: Wm. Spencer, of this place, is progressing very satisfactorily with his preparations to manufacture clay pipe. He now has a kiln of 4000 feet ready to burn. The specimens heretofore exhibited, which were burned on a small scale, are pronounced to be superior to the Sacramento pipe. The clay is considered the best that has yet been found in this State; and as the supply is almost inexhaustible and the demand very extensive for the pipe, we expect to see this business assume formidable proportions in the vicinity of Santa Monica. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: C & W, 2 butter boxes; Alward Bros & Co., 40 skis flour, 7 pkgs mdse; I Cohen, 10 pkgs mdse; W C Co., 3 pkgs mdse; Reissers Brewery, 1 beer keg; M Mendelson; 2 kegs brandy; F A Korn, 1 kg; L Halberstadt, 1 case flowers; Langenberger, 1 kg powder; J Fischer, 1 pipe; S J Lowe, 95 joints well pipe; Davis Bros, 1 bille sks; C Mossman, 4 pkgs mdse; J Forster, 6 pkgs mdse; Wong You, 4 sks cabbage; W E L. 19 pkgs mdse; J R Paul, 3 pkgs table legs; Look & Leonard, 2 bdls paper. The new proprietor of the City Bakery is a versatile and accomplished gentleman. As a baker, his skill, like his bread, needs no "puffing;" as a leader in the massy, he is elegance personified; as a painter, he handles the brush with a deftness betokening consumate skill; while as a fiddler, he can draw sweeter sounds out of a base viol than one would think such a bloated instrument capable of producing. And now we learn that he can justly lay claim to a fleetness of foot which would be creditable to a professional. About five o'clock the other morning, his noble Rosinante took advantage of his temporary absence delivering bread at a house on Los Angeles street, to enjoy a run, unchecked by the hand of his master. When that gentleman saw the condition of affairs, the horse was a couple of hundred yards away, but nothing daunted he sped in pursuit. After a long and stern chase the horse was captured by the fleet-footed, but somewhat blown, baker. It has often been observed that if the so-called sweet rind lemon should be left in water for a few hours, the rind would so embitter the fluid as to make it unpalatable. This has been true, heretofore, of all kinds of lemons which have come under our observation, and to Dr. Hardin must be ascribed the credit or good fortune of having propagated a lemon that does not possess the undesirable property complained of. Upon accidentally discovering this virtue, the Doctor brought us a couple of the lemons, with a request to test them. We cut the fruit in the usual way, placed the pieces in a pitcher of sweetened water, and let them remain over night. In the morning the lemonade was as fresh and delicious to the taste as if it had been made only five minutes previous. It may be that there are others who have lemons of a similar quality, but having never heard of such we venture to make a note of it. The Doctor cannot give the name of this variety of lemon. Mr. A. G. Beebe received a letter yesterday from a wholesale dealer in San Francisco with whom he has considerable dealing. In the letter was enclosed one which had been sent to the firm by some one in Anaheim, who had not the courage to sign his own name, which accused Mr. Beebe of being negligent in business, a gambler, a drunkard, and liable to fail at any moment, and advising them to close all business relations as quickly as possible notwithstanding all reports to the contrary. The villain who would thus assail the reputation of a man, who stands beyond reproach in our community, deserves the heaviest penalty that can be enforced upon him, and we are happy to say that his letter to the San Francisco firm met with exactly the encouragement it deserved, as they assured Mr. B. of their unbounded confidence in his integrity and respectfully solicited further orders. Col. E. J. C. Kewen has publicly announced that he is a candidate for State Senator. Anaheim Literary Society. ANAHEIM, Apr 12, 1877. The members of the Anaheim Literary Society met at Kroeger's Hall, pursuant to Board of Supervisors. MONDAY, April 21. Board met pursuant to adjournment—Present full Board.

Report of Westminster Schools. For the month and term ending March 30, 1877. GRAMMAR SCHOOL Whole number enrolled...39 Average number belonging...30 Westminster Items. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. We had over an inch and a half of rain last week, making barley prospects around here brighter. There was not enough rain to help the feed much on the plains. Grasshoppers are appearing between here and Anaheim, and the persons living in that direction are fearful of losing their crops this season. We trust no such fear will be realized. Since the last rains the mountains have been snow-capped and many have looked for frost, predicting that all chance for fruit this year was over. But thus far no damage has been done, not even the delicate young shoots on orange trees being injured. The annual "Norther" has slightly used this season but it may come soon enough. Mr. Hough's lecture last Wednesday evening on "Forty days and forty nights in the Holy Land" was intensely interesting. The church was filled and all were pleased. Owing to the rain the Thursday evening lecture was omitted. The closing exercises of our school Friday afternoon passed off pleasantly, reflecting credit on both teachers and pupils. We have no copy of the programme, or would gladly send it in full. It would certainly be a hard task to find a brighter set of pupils in any school. A great many of the parents and friends of the scholars were present, and expressed themselves as entirely satisfied with the school. A resolution was offered and unanimously carried, asking the Trustees to at once take steps to secure the services of Mr. Butterfield and Miss Anderson for the coming school year; and in every instance where we have heard this matter spoken of there has been no expression other than a strong desire to have the school go on as it has been the last year. We believe this can be accomplished, but prompt steps will be necessary to do it. Prof. Lewis lectured in the Hall Saturday evening, on music, and efforts are being made to form a class here. Saturday afternoon the Westminster and Gospel Swamp ball Clubs played the second of their match games, on the grounds east of the Los Bolsas school-house. The score stood 28 to 9 in favor of Westminster. The third game will be played soon, and also a match between our Club and that of Tustin City and Santa Ana. There were quite a number at the Hall Monday evening to see the "Panorama" and hear the "interesting lecture." A smaller audience would greet the exhibitor should he visit this place again. The meeting of the Presbyterian congregation to consider the plans for a new church will hold last Saturday afternoon, the time Anaheim Literary Society. ANAHEIM, April 12, 1877. The members of the Anaheim Literary Society met at Kroeger’s Hall, pursuant to adjournment, Mr. T. S. Grimshaw in the chair. The meeting was called to order and the minutes of the two previous meetings read and approved, and the Treasurer’s report, showing a balance on hand of $29 50, was presented and accepted, after which the President delivered an inaugural address, in which he reviewed the past history of the Society, and spoke in glowing terms of the bright future which loomed up before it, and urged upon the members the founding of a free reading room. The Chair appointed as a committee to decide upon the merits of the debate, Mrs. P. C. McKinnie, Messrs. Theo. Lynill and Wm. Fish, and as a programme committee to serve for the present term, W. D. Stevenson, W. H. Henderson and Robert Brown. The following question was then discussed, “Resolved, That private schools are to be preferred to public schools.” Victor Montgomery for the affirmative, followed by his opponent, W. H. Henderson. After a number of speeches pro. and con., the committee gave their decision in favor of the negative. The question for discussion at the next meeting is, “Resolved, That men of thought have been more beneficial to the world than men of action.” Affirmative—Messrs. J. M. Guinn, W. D. Stevenson, E. F. Cahill and M. A. Mendelson. Negative—Messrs. Theo. Lynill, R. C. Glover, Fred Rimpan and Wm. F. Heathman. The Chair imposed fines of 25 cents upon F. M. Cahill and Fred Rimpan for non-performance of the duties assigned them by the programme committee. The Society then adjourned to meet in Kroeger’s Hall on the evening of the 16th inst. V Montgomery, Secy. Base-Ball. A match game of base-ball between the “Stars” of Newport, and the “Alerts” of Westminster, was played Saturday, March 31st near Bolaa school-house. The Westminster boys came off victorious with a score of 28 to 9, and five “white-washes” to their credit. Good playing was exhibited on both sides. Foul balls were invariably held by the catchers—Finley, of the “Alerts,” and Moesser, of the “Stars;” but more “fouls” were made by the “Star’s” when White, pitcher, sent in his finger-stingers. The catchers and pitchers were frequently changed, excepting Finley, who stuck to his post throughout the game, only resting when he took off or put on his boots. The batting was good, but “dies” seldom escaped the “fielders.” Wild throwing and “muffling” on bases characterized both clubs. The utmost harmony and good feeling existed that his letter to the San Francisco firm met with exactly the encouragement it deserved, as they assured Mr. B. of their unbounded confidence in his integrity and respectfully solicited further orders. —Col. E. J. C.Kewen has publicly announced that he is a candidate for State Senator. Anaheim Literary Society. ANAHEIM, April 12, 1877.

We are glad to be able to announce that Mrs. Larowe and Miss Livingston have consented to give an entertainment at Kroeger's Hall on Monday evening, for the benefit of the newly organized Fire Department. The courtesy of these ladies will no doubt be appreciated, not only by the members of the Department but by every citizen. Every Fireman should resolve himself into a committee of one to awaken public interest and secure a large audience. The entertainment will be similar to that given the other night, but the selections will be entirely different. The San Francisco Journal of Commerce estimates the production of the wine-growing counties of California as follows: Gallons Los Angeles and San Bernardino 2,000,000 Sonoma 1,300,000 Napa 1,125,000 Sacramento 750,000 Yolo 750,000 Solano 900,000 San Joaquin 500,000 Placer 500,000 Tulolumne 500,000 Santa Barbara 500,000 Other counties 1,500,000 Total 10,025,000 —A Standard Orchestral Organ, Peloubet, Peloubet Co. makes first-class in every particular, ten stops, for sale cheap.

While the Messrs. Kellogg and Barrows were shooting birds on last Saturday, Mr. Barrows was accidentally shot in the face, one shot entering the left eye. It is a very unfortunate and painful wound, but physicians pronounce the eye-sight safe. J.W. Anderson has been rusticating this week at that delightful country village, San Diego. Dr. Hardlin and lady was in town Wednesday. They duly appreciated our unexcelled natural drives. We notice your Westminster correspondent correcting statements &c., in our former communication. "When the shoe fits," hear 'em squeal. This evidently applies to that swampy colony; else why this woeful wait? For we mentioned no particular locality where fruits did fail. We not long since took a stroll in the "minster" district; and after floundering around in their ever-lasting mudholes; inhaling an atmosphere pregnant with all the most horrible stenches one can imagine; we got up above the village and found grain looking fully as fuzzy as any around Orange before the last rain. Corn and pumpkins am your forte—go for 'em. A secret society, known as the "Dramatic Club," we learn is in training to soon surprise the natives hereabouts. It is reported that 3 inches of rain fell 12 miles up the Santiago canyon. Mr. Rowell from the Trabuco canyon reports 14 inches of rain; and feels confident that bee feed will be fair; if not good. The zanjas were never in finer order; and abundance of water for all—notwithstanding J.T.'s allusion. How about that new county map? Was it ever finished? Where can a copy be got? The air is fragrant with the bloom of oranges; and miles of snow in sight. The gentle zephyr wafts to our nostrils the intoxicating perfume of wild flowers; and miles of snow in sight. The thermometer indicates 80° above zero; and miles of snow in sight. The tow-headed urchin barefooted skinks toward school; and miles of snow in sight. Dr. Bailey delivered a lecture before the public school last week. The primary school, Miss Joslin teacher, did a praiseworthy days work, last Friday, bounting the school lot, by planting out shade trees, flowers, etc. This is a good example for the higher grades. Land that was bought three and four years ago for from $20 to $40 per acre, being set to trees of orange, lemon and lime, now sell for from $250 to $300 per acre, while farming lands have scarcely advanced 10 per cent. Who wants to farm? Our J. T. 475 blooms on a four-year-old orange tree is a sight worthy a King. That is if he is the most worthy on earth. Mr. Galligar, has about 100 hogs; he intends fattening them on corn, raised on high dry sandy place where corn only makes from 75 to 100 bushels per acre; and no swamps or malaria near by. "Nice sweet oranges," was his daily cry; this refers to next fall, and the oranges came from orange groves, near Orange settlement, future county seat of Orange County, centrally situated in Orange Valley.
