The ocean rose and fell three times to a height of twelve feet. No damage. The wave is supposed to have been caused by an earthquake or volcanic eruption oceanward." This is the same tidal wave observed at Anaheim Landing and which was made the subject of a letter which we published yesterday.

It was blue Monday at the Justices' Courts yesterday. The morals of the community were good, but the profits of the lawyers and justices were not. Captain Granet has introduced General Pleasanton's blue glass arrangements into his saloon. Whether it improves the flavor of his whisky or not we leave to judges of the article to decide.

Of all diseases to which the human family is subject, fashion is one of the most calamitous. It would be extremely difficult to enumerate the evils arising from the ravages of this malady. It not only frequently ruins its victims financially, but actually annually sweeps its thousands to an untimely grave. It has many peculiarities, one of which is this, that it provails with much less restraint and more fatal consequences among the fair, and I might say frail, portion of humanity (who give themselves up as passive recipients, a willing sacrifice) than it does among the male portion, though they are not impervious to its attacks. It is much more malignant in the towns and cities than in the country, but being contagious, finds its way into rural abodes, and generally becomes chronic, and renews its attack with frequency and avidity. If a person who has in all previous time been an inhabitant of the country, or some remote region, remove into town, it generally attacks them with great eagerness, and they "have it bad." The symptoms which characterize this disease, are these: The complexion changes from the ruddy to that of Creme de lis, or enamelline, loss of energy, especially energy of purpose, a restlessness, with a disposition to frequent fashionable resorts, dry-goods establishments, milliners, dressmakers, &c.; the bust appears an unnatural size, while there is a contraction of the waist into a smaller compass, and the long bones enclosing the thoracic cavity show a tendency to pierce the vitals, and the human form resembles a huge wasp; the feet shrink and painful excrescences appear on the members forming the extremity of the same.

Sometimes the lower part of the body will assume enormous proportions, and require room enough on the sidewalk or street-car for three ordinary sized persons. Then comes the (eel-skin) pull-back, from which the patient suffers innumerable inconveniences in fact, the female figure becomes so disfigured from an obedience to this vain pursuit, that the superficial observer can form but an inadequate idea of her natural proportions as she daily perambulates the street. As desperate diseases need desperate appliances, the suggestion of a remedy such as would prove effectual would be of little or no avail to these already immolated, these foolish, fickle, fanciful fashion-followers. MRS. D. M. HARWOOD. The following extracts are from a sermon recently delivered by Rev. D. McDonaugh, a Presbyterian preacher of Ontario, Canada: The history of dancing is full of all that is beastly, envious, murderous and lustful. It has been stated that the terrible moral basement of dancing in the United States has been the primary cause of nine-tenths of all the divorces in the country. Why, every man in France can fiddle and dance, and many a dancing scalawag of a dancing chimney sweep leaves France for France's good and goes to New York or Chicago, where he announces himself as a teacher of dancing or music, and is soon engaged in the work of clearing out these young girls of every shred of virtue they may possess, going from family to family, polishing off the girls as he goes. This French scoundrel has been accustomed to see women dancing in her birthday attire at home, and he soon has his pupil in this country taught to do the same. I have no doubt this sort of thing is done in this town. Everybody knows that the inner life of dancing is consciousness of sex. I will repeat it, the inner life of the dance is the consciousness of sex—a feeling more easily understood than described. You doubt my word, some of you professed Christians, who permit balls in your houses, and let your wives and daughters be fingered, clawed and beavered over by lustful and grinning libertines. Where do your liberty and lustful Christians get your dances from? I will tell you: They are sent from hell to France, and thence to Canada, via New York and Chicago. I verily believe this town is a small hall, and this Dominion a hell nearly four million square miles in area. The Turk, who, after looking at a modern waltz, asked, "And what followed?" had a level head. I'll show you what dancing is. I looked through a window at a dance in this town the other evening—do you want me to give names?—and I saw a young fool of a fellow approach a young lady, and I'll show you what followed. [Here Rev. McDonough tripped across the pulpit platform, and bowing politely to an imaginary young lady, said in soft tones.

Hall, a private detective of San Francisco, arrested a Spaniard yesterday named President, asking him to remove Douglass. In his lecture he characterizes the old residents of the city as indolent and ignorant; declares that the city is filled with duplicity and servility and occupied by people who endeavor to get something for nothing; who wear their hats pulled down over their eyes like thieves and robbers and do this, he mildly added, to give themselves a Congressional look. He charged them further with aiding treason, with thwarting the impeachment of Andrew Johnson and of hatching the plot that killed Lincoln. In slandering the people of the District of Columbia the lecture could hardly be excelled. It would pass unnoticed but for the high position which the lecturer holds. Want him Removed. WASHINGTON, May 11. Petitions are circulating among the people of this city for the removal of Fred Douglass from the position of Marshal of the District because of animadversions against the people of Washington, alleged to have been made in a recent lecture delivered by Douglass in Baltimore. It is reported to-day that Columbus Alexander, one of the most prominent bondsmen of Douglass, has asked to be released from his bond. Railroad Matters, YUMA, A. T., May 14. The final line of the S. P. R. R. has been located through Madison avenue, the next street east of and parallel to Main street; the principal business street of the city. The bridge will be built and put across the river immediately at a point between the steamship wharf and the government depot buildings on the east. The grading between Jaeger's and the sand hills is completed. The heavy work in the sand hills will be completed in eight days when the next move of the terminus will be made. Fred Douglass Explains. WASHINGTON, May 13. Frederick Douglass publishes a card saying that the attacks upon him on account of remarks made by him in Baltimore are both malicious and silly. Washington he says, is a great city, not a village nor a hamlet, but the capital of a great nation, and the manners and habits of its various classes are proper subjects for presentation, criticism, and therefore it is a very great mistake to suppose that this great city can be thrown into a tempest of passion by any humorous reflection he may take the liberty to utter. Several thousand citizens, including many business men, have signed a petition to the President asking for the removal of Marshal Douglass in view of his slanderous utterances, and there is talk of calling an indignation meeting. Tweed to Remain in Durance. NEW YORK, May 12. The Express says that the Attorney-General has concluded that the statement of facts furnished by Tweed cannot be used in carrying on the prosecution against the old ring thieves, and that he has much information Where do your libertine and lustful Christians get your dances from? I will tell you: They are sent from hell to France, and thence to Canada, via New York and Chicago. I verily believe this town is a small hall, and this Dominion a hell nearly four million square miles in area. The Turk, who, after looking at a modern waltz, asked, "And what followed?" had a level head. I'll show you what dancing is. I looked through a window at a dance in this town the other evening—do you want me to give names?—and I saw a young fool of a fellow approach a young lady, and I will show you what followed. [Here Rev. McDonough tripped across the pulpit platform, and bowing politely to an imaginary young lady, said in soft tones, "My dear Miss M——, can I have the pleasure of a dance with you? Then the reverend gentlemen tripped back as if bearing a lady on his arm.] And now watch that young couple. The young woman begins to perspire, her eyes to flash; she grows excited; he takes the young lady's hand; his touch thrills her through and through, and off they go into the dance, he ready to pounce on her virtue the first chance that offers. To our Lady Readers. Let us tell you what reached our desk this week. A magazine which supplies information on every article a lady or child can wish to wear, from the sole of her feet to top of her head. Each article is richly illustrated; underneath stands the description, with the number of yards it takes to make it; and then comes the price at which you can purchase it. All classes are provided for. The wealthiest and the least wealthy—all can find qualities suited to their means. Interleaved between the Fashion descriptions we find page after page of original reading-matter; not such as overloads so many publications, but bright, suggestive, instructive contributions by our best lady writers, on subjects in which every sensible woman takes pleasure and interest. "The Kitchen," "The Home," "The Cultivation of Beauty." "The Education of Children," "The Art of Dress-making," etc., etc.—all are standard articles on standard subjects. Now, when we say, further, that this magazine, a monster volume of 116 pages, is only the "Spring" number of a publication which costs but 50 cents for a whole year's subscription, our readers will understand why we consider it somewhat remarkable. It is published by Ehrich & Co., Noa. 287 and 289 Eighth Avenue, New York City, the enterprising merchants, who thus meet a great demand of ladies who live away from the great metropolis, and yet are eager to vote for Azusa Water District No. 4 and determined that the district be created, and G Wright elected Water Overseer and J. C. Preston, J. Hammel, and Henry Roberts Commissioners. Adjourned to first Monday in June. BY TELEGRAPH. Arrested for Bank Robbing. BAKERSFIELD, Cal., May 11. R. B. Hall, a private detective of San Francisco, arrested a Spaniard yesterday named Jesus Coniez, for attempting to rob the San Luis Obispo bank in April last. Hall has been engaged in working up the case for some time, and thinks the evidence is conclusive. Auction Sale of Wool. SAN FRANCISCO, May 11. The third auction sale of wool by H. M. Newhall & Co., for account of Falkner, Bell & Co., was held this morning. The unsold lots at the last sale, with the exception of the Newhall clip, only forty bales of which were then offered, were closed out privately within forty-eight hours of the great sale at rates established by the auction. The wools offered to-day were, therefore, all fresh consignments. The catalogue to-day comprised 41 lots, of which 31 lots were sold and the remainder withdrawn for satisfactory bids. The extremes paid for Southern clips varied at 11½ to 20 cents, though most of the lots ranged from 12½ to 20 cents. The Parrott clip of 63 bales, choice ungraded northern, sold at 26¢c. The total quantity catalogued was 1,355 bales, of which 1,024 bales were sold and 331 bales withdrawn. The sales were made chiefly for Eastern account. Seats were provided for those in attendance. Another sale will be held in a week or ten days, one clip of 250 bales having been already listed. Grand Lodge I. O. O.F. SAN FRANCISCO, May 11. The Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows met at 10 o'clock yesterday morning pursuant to adjournment, grand officers all present. Prayer was offered by the Grand Chaplain and the Grand Lodge declared duly opened for the resumption of business. The journal thousand citizens, including many business men, have signed a petition to the President asking for the removal of Marshal Douglass in view of his slanderous utterances, and there is talk of calling an indignation meeting. Tweed to Remain in Durance. NEW YORK, May 12. The Express says that the Attorney-General has concluded that the statement of facts furnished by Tweed cannot be used in carrying on the prosecution against the old ring thieves, and that he has much information reserved which he refuses to disclose, to save certain of his friends. The Attorney-General has returned his papers to Tweed and has declined to release him. The Rockford Catastrophe. CHICAGO, May 13. A special to the Evening Journal from Rockford says that no bodies have been taken out since Warren was extricated last night. Chief Larkin and the five deputies did efficient service and worked by relays all night. A donkey engine is expected hourly to lift the heavy blocks. Architect Gay came last night. The Coroner's jury this morning viewed two additional bodies. They have taken no steps toward fixing the responsibility, but have sent to Chicago for two engineer experts and secured the plans and specifications to hold until the examination is complete. They meet again at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Richardson has long been disatisfied with the specifications for the roof and now blames himself for not throwing up the contract entirely. The feeling here is deep, but a general disposition is manifested to await the investigation before passing judgment. A shock was felt in the building an hour before the fall but did not cause any alarm. Architect Gay, who designed the Rockford Court House, which fell yesterday, left last night for Rockford, in response to telegrams from officials there, and his statement cannot be obtained. The papers however are publishing accounts of mishaps to Chicago buildings of which he has been the architect, and they make a formidable list. Prominent architects express great doubt as his fitness to make plans and specifications. The feeling both here and in Rockford seems to be that Contractor Richardson is comparatively blameless. He having at his own expense, placed strong works in what is considered the weak places, and having pleaded with the Building Committee for stronger material, but in vain. Postal Changes. WASHINGTON, May 14. The following postal changes have been announced for the Pacific Coast: Office established at Dos Palmas, San Diego county; W. A. McLeod, postmaster; office discontinued at Mount Station, San Bernardino county; Harlow Gilbert appointed postmaster at San Pascual, San Diego county. Glory Hallelujah! WILMINGTON, Del., May 14. This afternoon, during a temperance rally in the Grand Opera House, when over 3,000 persons were present, the discovery of a quantity of burlap burning in the cellar caused a stampede. An old lady promptly started "Glory Hallelujah," which, being taken up by those on the stage, allayed the fears of the crowd and order was restored. A man named Baird has been arrested on suspicion of attempting to fire the building. Catholic Celebration. NEW ORLEANS, May 14. The Golden Jubilee of His Holiness Pope Pius Ninth was celebrated by the Catholics of New Orleans to-day by a grand military and civic procession and a mass meeting in Lafayette Square. Favorable Showing. WASHINGTON, May 12. Lucien J. Barnes, of the Bureau of Statistics, has recently prepared tables showing the movement of bullion, specie and merchandise between the United States and foreign countries for a series of four years. At no former period has the foreign commerce of this country been in such a favorable condition. For the fiscal year ending June 19th, 1876, the balance in trade and merchandise was in favor of the United States to an amount of nearly $80,000,000. In specie value this amount has been nearly doubled during the three quarters of the present year. If the present very flattering prospects are fulfilled for the remainder of the present fiscal year, Barnes thinks the balance of trade in merchandise will not be short of $200,000.- J.C.

Printers' ink has been more successful in establishing business than money and brains combined. It is the height of absurdity to imagine that any business can become prosperous without advertising, and those who have ever worked upon such policy have never accomplished much, and generally come to grief. The most extensively advertised establishments are almost invariably the most prosperous. P. Pellegrin, Practical Watch Maker EastEnd of Centre St. ANAHEIM, GAL.
