Blythe and others are the movers in the matter. The ditches will be constructed under the supervision of Mr. O. P. Calloway, an experienced engineer. The sum of $0,125 was paid into the Land Office as a preliminary to these locations. We also learn that a party of our own capitalists are making extensive locations of desert lands near the Gila, and that they will be promptly irrigated, pursuant to the Act. Colton is becoming the great resort for capitalists who wish to see the country Not a week passes but millionaires come here and note the prospects of this promising valley; and they usually leave some of their wealth with us.-Colton Semi-Topic. Fred W. Athearn, of the Gazette, is in Colton. M A. Mendelson, the merchant-tailor par excellence, has formed an alliance with a firm in Los Angeles, and as he does not wish to remove his stock of goods he will sell them at greatly reduced rates for thirty days from the 1st of June.

The Republican County Committee met in Los Angeles yesterday. It was decided to hold primaries on Thursday, June 14th, to elect delegates to a Convention; but the day on which to hold the Convention was not fixed.

Call and examine the various styles. In the case of the People vs. Mr. John Whare, for battery, on the person of Mr. Geo. Danskin, before Justice Bailey, yesterday, Mr. Whare was fined forty dollars or forty days imprisonment. Mr. Whare proceeded to Westminster to hunt for the whare-withal, to keep himself out of jail. The Southern Pacific Railroad fares between San Francisco and Yuma, as officially published, are, for the present: Unlimited first-class, $50; limited, first-class, $42; limited, third class, $32. "Unlimited" allows stop-over privileges at pleasure, upon notifying conductors; "limited," means a continuous through trip. The fare from Los Angeles to Yuma is $22. Mr. Bowley, of Westminster, informs us that in boring an artesian well on his farm, at the depth of 311 feet large pieces of manzenitsa and oak wood were found in complete state of preservation. Some years ago at Tustin the skeleton of a man was taken from considerable depth. "In the great mystery which around us lies, The wrist is a food." Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: W Waterson, 1 sewing machine; H S Austin, 10 pkgs wind-mill; A Langenberger, 1 case coal oil; L G, 2 kegs powder; M F Parker, 1 case drugs; J Bennerschied, 1 carboy acid; W Anderson, 1 eggbox; Webster, Howe & Co, 6 egg boxes; A Langenberger, 22 pkgs salt; E J Dodge, 2 pkgs mdee; J W Aldrich, 1 case coal oil; Alward Bros & Co, 22 pkgs salt; O Warling, 3 pkgs mdee; Goodman & Rimpan. 1 case tanner's oil; H A Stough, I spring; A G Beebe, 6 boxes oranges; O Warling, 1 roll leather. Late on Friday night a couple of ill-favored individuals visited Mrs. Brown's house, on Palm street, and imbibed quite freely. After carousing for some time, they each drew a pistol, and pointing the weapons at the mistress of the house, commanded her to give them money, remarking at the same time that they had robbed the stage a few nights before, but as they had only got $40 they were "hard up." One of the female inmates of the house entered the room where Mrs. Brown and the two men were, and she also was covered with a revolver, and told to keep quiet or be killed. After considerable parleying Mrs. Brown managed to dispatch a messenger to the Marshal for assistance. But when that officer reached the house the men had fled, after firing their pistols in bravado. On yesterday morning Deputy Sheriff Barham received information as to the whereabouts of the men, and summoning a posse, he went in pursuit. They proceeded to the Willows about three miles from town, and there found that the men had recently camped there. They were tracked to Orange and from there to the Upper Santa Ana settlement, but the posse was unable to overtake the fugitives. The men are evidently old Californians, as they talk Spanish quite fluently, and although they are comparative strangers here, they are known by sight to several of our citizens. It is said that their rendezvous is in the Willows, and that they have been doing a lucrative business lately in stealing barley from the farmers in this vicinity. There is no doubt as to there being the men who robbed the stage, and unless they change their base of operations, they will soon find themselves in the clutches of the myrmidons of the law. The speaker said that who had friends who have hour of adversity and have pure gold in the refiner's question for each inch Have you a neighbor? Have a neighbor are you to this or the plated imitation? Nonnadic and cosmopolitan population of the Pacific nation action, action, was the demeanor reform to-day.

The miracle which weighs upon them most degraded can bring touch of the little berry To those who call drinkers he would say of a bitter experience thing to subject your attention to conquer that you should not drink for poor or sociability, or to contend that you are your own that thinketh he stands fall.

Pilkington, Worthy Lecturer of the State Grange, will be in Anaheim on Wednesday, July 4th, and in Westminster the succeeding day. —Mr. Patterson, of Westminster, returned yesterday from Arizona. He reports heavy losses in all the flocks of sheep which left this section. —There are seven new married couples at the Pico House at the present writing. The honeymoon is in the ascendant in that hotel just now, and a bachelor feels rather out of place there.—Herald. —It should be borne in mind that the concert for the benefit of the Presbyterian Sabbath School will be held at Kroeger's Hall on Thursday evening, and that if you don't attend you will miss a rare treat. —The Town Marshal has engaged a number of carts and will to-day superintend the work of grading Centre and Los Angeles streets. The soil will be supplied from the excavation now being made for Backs' brick building. —The shipments from the depot this morning were: 7 cases dry goods; 3 boxes lemons, 1 bble steel, 6 bbl potatoes; 1 box butter, 10 skis barley, 1 sk potatoes, 1 box dry goods, 1 keg soda, 1 sk flour, 7 sks meal, 6 carloads sheep. —There will be a meeting held at Professor Yarndley's house this evening for the purpose of electing officers of the Choral and Glee Society, and for taking the necessary steps to place the society upon a firm foundation. —In regard to the petition of Orangethorpe School District for a slice from the School District of Anaheim, the County Superintendent of Public Schools has reserved his decision until such a time as he can properly investigate the matter. —Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: F N Gibson, 8 pkgs iron and wood; Dr Anderson, 1 sack pea nuts; A G Beebe, 1 box apricots; L Gildmacher, 1 pkg mdse; R B, 16 beer kegs; Gaddy & Lewis, 10 sacks bran; M J Bundy, 8 pkgs BY TELEGRAPH. Cold Weather. New York, May 26. The weather is unusually cold, the thermometer yesterday falling to nearly 40°. Snow has fallen in Massachusetts and serious fears are entertained of frosts much farther south. Hayes to be Coerced to Abandon his Policy. New York, May 20. The World's Washington special says: The Republican, in a double leaded editorial, says there is not tile slightest doubt that the friends of Tilden are seeking to put the title to the Presidency into the Courts. Nor in its opinion is there any doubt that there has been an understanding effected between the leaders of the Tilden interest and Republican dissenters on the subject, but the latter have no desire to oust the President and seat Tilden. They only think to alarm Hayes and bring about either an abandonment of his measures of reform or such concessions of place and power as they wish or both. No Democrat here seems to know of any such coalition. Church and Liquor Items. New York, May 25. The following are the Tribune's local items: No taxes are paid on $137,000,000 of church property in this city. It takes $106,000,000 worth of liquors to assuage the thirst of the city. A Serious Impediment--A Denial. Washington, May 25. An official letter just received from a high government officer on the Pacific Coast asserts unreservedly and earnestly that constantly accumulating gases in the Comstock mines, generated from the hot water found at present at the great depths of working, bid fair soon to compel the abandonment of work on the lode, unless relieved by a speedy connection with the Sutro tunnel. This statement was so impressive that Mint Director Linderman sought an interview with J. A. Mackey on the subject, but failed to did not last over twenty minutes. There was no prediction made in his presence by Democrats that there would be in North Carolina an administration party in opposition to the Democracy, and he knows of no such movement upon the part of Democrats. He speaks of his visit to the President as an agreeable one, and says that he was impressed with the idea that the President was desirous of performing the functions of his office for the best interests of the whole people, regardless of sectional and party issues. The Times' Washington special says that Senator Dorsey telegraphs to Morton: "Every Southern Republican ought to feel grateful for your able, exhaustive and wise letter; I believe it will be approved by all whose approval is worth having. Its effect in the South will be great in restoring confidence in the President's fidelity to his party, which many Republicans doubted. I believe the President is acting wisely and that your letter will strengthen his hands as nothing else could." Judge Pratt in Trouble. New York, May 26. The Sun has the following, which it heads "Gossip for the Californians": A well known United States Judge from California, having been inveigled into a gambling house at 108 East Fourteenth street and lost $100, on his complaint the police raided the place and arrested George Watson, alias Marston, and James Lowry. The detectives would not divulge the name of the Judge, even to Justice Wandell. The Telegram says that Judge O. C. Pratt of San Francisco will appear against the two bunco men, Watson and Lowry, who were arrested yesterday. It appears the Judge had been roped into a game and was in the house when the detectives made the descent upon it. [Judge O. C. Pratt was never a Judge of a United States Court in California. He was in early years one of the three Judges appointed by the United States for the Territory of Oregon, and since then he has been a District Judge of this State, in San Francisco.] Ed. Items From Washington. Washington, May 28. It is no longer considered expedient to re-letter from Washington. In regard to the petition of Orangethorpe School District for a slice from the School District of Anaheim, the County Superintendent of Public Schools has reserved his decision until such a time as he can properly investigate the matter. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: F N Gibson, 8 pkgs iron and wood; Dr Anderson, 1 sack peanuts; A G Beebe, 1 box apricots; L Gildmacher, 1 pkgge mdse; R B, 16 beer kegs; Gaddy & Lewis, 10 sacks bran; M J Bundy, 8 pkgs mdse; J W Watson, 3 sks beans; J P Zeyn, 1 hf bbl sugar, Fourth of July Celebration. At the meeting of Fairview Grange, last Saturday, it was decided to hold a Fourth of July celebration at Cowan's Grove. Hon. B. K. Pilkington, Worthy Lecturer of the State Grange, will be present and deliver the oration. Invitations will be extended to all the neighboring Granges to participate in the celebration. It is not the intention, however, of the patriotic Grangers to make this strictly a Grange affair. On the contrary, a free and cordial invitation is extended to the citizens of Anaheim and the neighboring towns, and the farmers in the vicinity, to join in the celebration. The Grangers merely take the initiative. It is to be hoped that citizens of the town will lend their assistance and contribute towards making the celebration a grand success. Sale of the L. A. & I. R. R. The officials of the County Recorder's office were busy all day yesterday, at the instance of Judge Harvey, of the S. P. R. R. and Col. Moniton, of the L. A. & I. R. R., in straightening up the title of the Santa Monica road. This involved the recording of deeds for right of way and other conveyances. This work is preliminary to placing the deed on record of conveying the L. A. & I. R. R. to the S. P. R. R. We have learned, on rehabilit authority, that the sale has been actually consummated, and that the transfer will take place on the 1st of June. The transaction may assume the shape of a mortgage; but, so our informant says, it will be an outright sale. Mr. Brunson's Lecture. [Los Angeles Herald May 20th.] Good Templars' Hall was completely filled last night by an audience of ladies and gentlemen, attracted by the announcement that A. Brunson, Esq., would address the Los Angeles Temperance Club. The speaker said that happy were those who had friends who had been tried in the hour of adversity and had stood the test like pure gold in the refiner's crucible. He had a question for each individual to answer. Have you a neighbor? If so, what kind of a neighbor are you to that neighbor, the true or the plated imitation? He dwelt upon the nomadic and cosmopolitan character of the population of the Pacific Coast. Action, action, action was the demand of the temperance reform to-day. The sloth perishes on the tree it climbs, after having eaten up all its leaves. If there are any such here tonight who find themselves "up a tree" I say to them look around you; you are in the midst of a mighty forest, and the very work you are called upon to do is that which gives A Serious Impetiment—A Denial. Washington, May 25. An official letter just received from a high government officer on the Pacific Coast asserts unreservedly and earnestly that constantly accumulating gases in the Comstock mines, generated from the hot water found at present at the great depths of working, bid fair soon to compel the abandonment of work on the lode, unless relieved by a speedy connection with the Sutro tunnel. This statement was so impressive that Mint Director Linderman sought an interview with J. A. Mackey on the subject, but failed to find him, as Mackey had already left for Europe, remaining only one night here. Virginia City, Nev., May 25. The reported letter from a government official on the Pacific Coast about the existence of dangerous gases in the Comstock mines, has no foundation in fact. W. H. Patton, Assistant Superintendent of the mines, says there are no gases of any description generated by the hot water in the mines. The present system of ventilation by means of drifts and winzes works satisfactorily, the only difficulty experienced is the intense heat which prefers when such connections are made. The Sutro tunnel would not obviate that difficulty. Col. Fair says there are no gases of any description generated by the hot water or any other cause in the Comstock mines. The Chico Assassins Found Guilty. Oroville, May 26. The jury in the case of Stainbrook, after being out all hight, came into court this morning and rendered a verdict of murder in, the second degree. It is rumored that nine of the jurors were for a long time in favor of murder in the first degree, but finally yielded to the views of the minority. The other parties indicted for murder, namely James Slaughter, John Slaughter, Eugene Roberts and J. F. Conway, were then brought into court and severally withdrew their plea of not guilty and plead guilty to murder in the second degree. Goldsmith Maid Beaten. Oakland, May 26. In to-day's races Goldsmith Maid won the first heat in 2:26!, and Rarus the two last heats. Time—2:19 and 2:19!. Goldsmith Maid ent herself in the second heat. The Mormon Uprising. Salt Lake, May 26. The Tribune's San Pete correspondent says that a reliable business man of that county writes as follows: The Mormons in this county are not only drilling, but all the white settlers have been ordered out of Thistle valley to make room for the Indians. There are now between five and six hundred of them here and more arriving almost daily. Nearly all are well armed. When Brigham Young passed through San Pete a month ago he said he wanted all the Mormons in Thistle valley to move out to make room for the Indians, as he expected to gather 10,000 of them there to do the will of the Lord. Items From Washington. Washington, May 28. It is no longer considered expedient to retain army officers on duty at the White House, and Col. H. C. Scorbin, of the 25th Infantry, who was detailed at the President's request, as one of his secretaries, will be relieved at the end of this month, and, by direction of the President, assigned to important duty in the War Department. The Secretary of the Navy has addressed a letter of instructions to commanders of foreign stations, stating that ex-President Grant is now making a tour of the world and requesting that when he reaches their vicinity they will show him proper attention and facilitate his means of observation abroad, in accord ance with a previous understanding. The Presbyterian Assembly and Chinese Question. Chicago, May 26. In the Presbyterian General Assembly this morning, the Committee on Chinese Evangelization made a report, which was put on the docket and ordered printed. It says the field of labor among the Chinese is among the most important before the church; only question was how the work of evangelization could be accomplished. The committee suggested that the Board of Home Missions send out teachers to prosecute the work; that Sunday schools be established; that the work should be mainly conducted by the Foreign Missionary Board, because it is more adapted to it and because a foreign dialect is needed; it has a Christian Chinese literature, practical knowledge of reaching the Chinese heart and it has returned missionaries who would be of more service than home missionaries. The committee referred to the conversion of Chinese on the Pacific Coast as a means of helping the work. Across the water the committee recommended co-operation Synods and Prebysteries in the work of the education of native Chinese ministers. Reviewing the Indians. Camp Robinson, Nov., May 26. At noon yesterday she principed warriors at the Agency, to the number of 600 were passed in review by Gen. Crook. Lieut. Clark formed line on a plain east of buildings, Crook taking a stand in front of the centre. The Indians were broken into columns of 18 platoons and executed the march, passing in good style. Having been again wheeled into linethe chiefs rode within a few paces of Gen. Crook, when they dismounted and shook hands with him. Crazy Horse who now saw The General for the first The speaker said that happy were those who had friends who had been in the hour of adversity and had stood the test like pure gold in the refiner's crucible. He had a question for each individual to answer. Have you a neighbor? If so, what kind of a neighbor are you to that neighbor, the true or the plated imitation? He dwelt upon the nomadic and cosmopolitan character of the population of the Pacific Coast. Action, action, action, was the demand of the temperance reform to-day. The sloth perishes on the tree it climbs, after having eaten up all its leaves. If there are any such here tonight who find themselves "up a tree" I say to them look around you; you are in the midst of a mighty forest, and the very work you are called upon to do is that which gives you life and brightens immortality. This was a personal work for the friends and advocates of temperance to do, and no excuse would relieve them from personal responsibility. Each should work according to his ability and make the best use of the talents given him, remembering that aspirations are prophecies which only require labor and faith to fulfill. Above all, don't think the object of your labor unworthy of you. He believed there was more good than evil in the worst type of humanity. The mighty incubus of sin which weighs upon the conscience of the most degraded can be shaken by the loving touch of the little babe. To those who call themselves moderate drinkers he would say, from the standpoint of a bitter experience, that it is a dangerous thing to subject your appetite to temptation. The possibility that you may be overtaken and conquered is a reason sufficient why you should not drink for pastime or amusement or sociability, or to convince yourself or others, that you are your own master. Let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall. If there was a custom which deserved the universal condemnation of all classes of humanity it was the detestable custom of "treating." It was the source of more drunkenness than any other ten causes combined. A "treating" friend is an unconscious enemy. The 1st day of June will be a memorable day in the annals of Anaheim. On that day at precisely 9 A.M. the great closing out sale of goods will commence at M.A. Mendelson's Merchant Tailoring Emporium, and will continue for thirty days. He does not believe in the clap-trap dodge of advertising to "give away" his goods, but as a matter of fact he will sell them at about wholesale rates. There is just time between now and the 1st to look over your wardrobe and see what articles of wear you are in need of. The Sheriff of Napa county, on Saturday, sold the remaining property of J.B. Fribie, under foreclosure of a mortgage held by the Hibernia Bank, the property being about 1,000 acres of farming land near Vallsjo. It was bid in by the bank for $22,800. The Tribune's San Pete correspondent says that a reliable business man of that county writes as follows: The Mormons in this county are not only drilling, but all the white settlers have been ordered out of Thistle valley to make room for the Indians. There are now between five and six hundred of them here and more arriving almost daily. Nearly all are well armed. When Brigham Young passed through San Pete a month ago he said he wanted all the Mormons in Thistle valley to move out to make room for the Indians, as he expected to gather 10,000 of them there to do the will of the Lord. It is openly preached here that the Indians will, before the Summer is gone, rid the country of every Gentile and apostate. Great excitement prevails among the outsiders, and if something is not done by the authorities, soon they may have another Mountain Meadows butchery. At midnight and at two o'clock in the morning there is heard in our streets the tramp of men and the words "Halt!" "Right Face," "Shoulder Arms," etc. The stores are doing a good business in firearms just now, and everything looks as though the war cloud was about to burst forth with all its violence. Governor Emery has had his attention called to the fact, and is making preparations to move in the premises. Political News New York, May 28. The Herald's Washington special says: The air is full of vague rumors of a movement to organize a new party, and the presence in Washington just now of Senator Conkling, Simon Cameron, Congressman Forster, Gov. Hartranft, General Banks and several other prominent statesmen and politicians, has stirred up the curious as to the meaning of their coming here. To an interview the stereotyped answer was given, "Business at the Departments," but the coincidence of their presence cannot be regarded as accidental. The Tribune's Washington special denies that the Anti-Administration party at Washington is formidable or serious. Blaine knew nothing whatever of the movement, although several Maine men were present. Colonel L. Stapples, of North Carolina, one of the Democrats from that State, who called upon the President a few days ago, says that his visit was not intended to have any political significance whatever. His call Reviewing the Inquiries Camp Robinson, No., May 26. At noon yesterday the principal warriors at the Agency, to the number of 600 were passed in review by Gen. Crook. Lieut. Clark formed the line on a plain east of the buildings, Crook taking a stand in front of the centre. The Indians were broken into columns of 18 platoons and executed the march, passing in good style. Having been again wheeled into line the chiefs rode within a few paces of Gen. Crook, when they dismounted and shook hands with him. Crazy Horse who now saw the General for the first time, knelt on the ground as he took his hand, and his example was followed by most of the others. Little Big Man was conspicuous from his almost complete nudity. Gen. Crook now led the way to the Agency, the companies in line breaking into columns of 4's. All the principal men having assembled inside the Agency stockade, an interval of silence ensued while the Indians were being arranged in the order of precedence in speaking. The council was then opened by Crazy Horse, who is notably a man of few words. Seating himself on the ground in front of the General, he spoke in a low voice as follows: "You sent tobacco to my camp to invite me to come in; when the tobacco reached me I started and kept on moving until I reached here. Ever since my arrival my face has been turned toward the fort and my heart has been happy. In coming this way I picked out a place where I wish to live hereafter, and I put a stake in the ground to mark the spot. There is plenty of game in that country. All those relatives of mine who are here approve my choice of place, and I would like them all to go back there with me, and we could stay there together." Crazy Horse was followed by Young-Man-Afraid, Red Cloud, No Water, Iron Hawk and others who spoke at greater or less length to the same effect, all expressing a desire to abide by the decisions of the authorities in the matter, and to behave themselves in future. Col. Ingersoll, being asked how the foreign war could affect America, she being considered as a great purveyor, replied truly: "I do not believe our prosperity depends upon the misfortunes of other nations. As a fact, the more prosperous other nations are the more prosperous we are likely to be. Prosperity bears our success, not misfortune. No merchant ever got rich through bankrupt customers." Letter from Trabuco Canyon. Ens. GAZETTE—Which is the most profitable—extracted or comb honey? One person will say, I can make more honey out of my bees by using the extractor; another will say, I make and sell nothing but comb honey; still another will say, As long as the bees make good white honey, I use the section box, but late in the season, when the honey is dark, I think it pays better to extract. If a swarm of bees will produce 100 pounds of honey where the extractor is used, and they can have empty combs as often as they can fill it, and not have to build but one set of comb, how much would they have produced under the same circumstances had the section box been used, and had they to build comb to store all the honey they gather in? I think the best authority we have on the subject says that bees have to consume about 18 pounds of honey to produce a pound of wax. Is there difference enough in the price of extracted and comb honey—say 10 cents per pound for comb and 7½ for extracted? I think that is a fair average of the honey sold in San Francisco, of last year's crop. Reports from different parts of the county are not favorable. The drouth has its effect upon bee men as well as farmers. There are men here whose bees are leaving their hives, they say for want of honey, while other bees all around them are storing honey. Query—why is it? The bees have gathered more honey in the last three days than they have in any two weeks during the spring. The Italian bees are flying at five in the morning, while the black bees are nearly an hour later. I have not any Italian queens or bees to sell, but I would rather have one stand of Italian than two of black bees. They are a larger bee and can fly further, get out earlier, work later and protect themselves from moths and robbers better; and besides, they are a handsomer bee. Trabuco, May 23. The Burlington Haikyne, speaking of the scheme of shooting rainrods with attachments into the windows of burning hotels, observes: "This is induced a grand idea. The only drawback to its practical operation is that a terrified guest, standing at a window, shrieking and howling for help, would have been very much surprised, and greatly tranquilized or reassured, on finding himself suddenly transfixed with a three-foot ramrod and a coil of string. And unless the Fire Department is vastly better on the shoot than the police, the probability is that not a window in the hotel would have been broken, while the streets of St. Louis would have been full of howling firemen and weeping citizens pulling ramrods out of each other."

In a circular from the State Commissioner of Agriculture, "the farmers of Georgia are urged to increase their areas in provision crops. It is not yet too late to increase the area in corn, even if it has to be done by reducing the area in cotton. Let farmers plant enough corn to ensure an ample supply for the ensuing year. Let them plant crops for their hogs and forces them forward to secure, as near as possible, a supply of bacon for home consumption. Let them plant liberally in German millet and field peas, to supplement their corn in feeding stock, in order that more of their own corn may be used for bread." Gen.
