Our attic yesterday called to a very skillful work done by Mrs. Barnett. It made of fish scales and eyes, f silver wire. The effect is very best is enhanced by the blue background frame in which it is encased.

Some his pupils made him a present of a gold chain as a token of their achievement. The Anaheim Brass Band propose to give a picnic at Tivoli Gardens on July 4th. The advertisement will appear in a few days, giving full particulars. The petition of Orangethorge School district for the addition of a portion of Anaheim District to its territory, was granted by the Board of Supervisors on Monday, under the protest of the School Superintendent. It is either a feast or a famine with our legal fraternity. Yesterday all hands were employed in the case of the People vs. J. C. Clark, charged with threatening to take the life of Mr. Burroughs. We have just been taking a squint at A. G. Beebe's new stock of candies. Such a display! It is enough to make a fellow's mouth water. Boys, call and get some for your fair ladies. Messrs. A. Guy Smith & Co. are preparing to add a steam corn-sheller to their already extensive machinery. This will be a great convenience to the farmers, as they can then shell as much of their corn as they see proper, and ship it direct, without employing extra labor. On Monday night as Capt. P. Granet was returning home from his place of business he had the misfortune to step on a small piece of board, which caused him to slip and fall heavily upon his shoulder, dislocating it.

The complaint was that one J. C. Clark threatened to take the life of one Joshua Burroughs,' and the evidence was that he didn't do any such thing and the suit was dismissed.

His mine is in the Globe District Arizona and is called the Silver nugget, which is by the way a very proper name as from fifty pounds of the rock $436 were extracted. Deputy Sheriff Barham was summoned in great haste last evening to arrest a man who was cruelly beating his wife in a shanty just outside of town. Upon arriving at the place designated neither man nor woman could be found, and a first-class wife-beating item was untimely nipped in the bad. Mrs. Robinson, of Santa Monica, had a narrow escape from death by poison a few days since. She thoughtlessly took a drink of milk from a bowl which contained arsenic and alum, but the taste of the latter warned her of her mistake before she drank deeply. Dr. Trask was called in and saved the lady's life.

Capt. Frazer, the agent of the Lick estate, says that the sheep over on the Santa Catalina Island will have hard work to pull through this summer, the grass being so scant and short. By devouring the underbrush they may manage to subsist till the new grasses start up. He says the wild goats of the Island are very fond of eating cactus, and their more domesticated neighbors may follow suit. [FROM FRIDAY'S DAILY] We yesterday received an order to print some stylish wedding cards. But we won't tell who they are for. Three hundred thousand dollars is said to be the price paid for the Santa Monica railway by the S. P. R. R.

Lockwood, a youth of 18, surrendered himself as one of the parties who did the shooting, but he claims it was done in self-defense.

H. made a few appropriate remarks after which Master Mannie David forward and presented Mr. Guijinn handsome gold-mounted cane. T monial was the gift, we understand P. Davis, and is expressive of his preciation of his son's teacher. There was a good attendance o present, and all seemed well plea thhe proceedings.

Express: We have learned from Supt. Moulton, who has just returned from San Francisco, that the Los Angeles and Independence Railroad has been formally turned over to the Southern Pacific Company, and that the trains will be run as heretofore without change of rates, as far as he knows. Mr. Moulton will continue as Superintendent, and the employees of the old administration will remain in their positions. The negotiations for the sale of this road were made altogether at the East, and solely between Mr. Huntington and Senator Jones. Col. Jackson, agent of the Senator at San Francisco, knew nothing of the matter until he received orders to turn over the road to the Southern Pacific. The road will be extended to a connection with the entire system of the Southern Pacific at once, and Santa Monica will be placed on the great overland highway of the country. [FROM THURSDAY'S DAILY.] Michael Reese is in Los Angeles. Messrs. Glassell and Chapman, of Los Angeles, were in town yesterday. Charles Lindley, of Monte Vista, says he is not a candidate for the State Senate. Eighty-six marriage licenses were issued by the County Clerk during the month of May. Mr. Richard Heimann returned from San Francisco yesterday. He is well pleased with the success he has met with, and thinks that he laid the foundation on which to build up a large and prosperous business with the northern part of the State. An affray in a Chinese wash-house in Los Angeles on Wednesday resulted in the shooting of two Chinamen. William A.

An individual was arrested yesterday for stealing some money from N. H. Mitchel. Pending trial he was lodged in jail. Officer Bohn went to the jail yesterday afternoon for the purpose of giving the prisoner some water, and while he went to the well for the fluid, the prisoner embraced the opportunity offered by an open door, and made a dash for freedom. He had got some distance ere Bohn discovered his flight, and then ensued a chase. The prisoner was finally captured by the agile Bohn, but not until that fleet-footed officer had drawn a revolver and threatened to shoot. The following items are from the Santa Ana Times: Willie Robinson will start for Mazatlan, Mexico next Saturday, to be absent for an indefinite time……Eugene Salter has shown us a small petrified pine knot and a piece of pine bark thrown up from his artesian well, the former from a depth of 180 feet and the latter from a depth of 232 feet……Wm. Whitehead and a party from the Swamp, went out last week on an extended hunt to the San Juan mountains. They were gone about a week and succeeded in capturing five bears, a number of wild cats and one California lion. They also got about 1200 pounds of fine clear mountain honey. EDITORS GAZETTE—I have been waiting for that keen-eyed critic, I draw the attention of the Town to a nuisance that has existed on Center for some time past, but as he fails to must ceen take up the cause of myself. I allude to the overflow of Centre street, near Palm. There is pool of water existing entirely street there for some time, and nuisance it is. Teams are obliged out of their way, and by degrees are being worn in the street. I wont that, as there is such a cordial uniting between the Town Trustees Water Co., they come to some undue that the Water Company keep their ditches and do not flood them Or, if this is not feasible, let viaduct across the artificial lake contract be made with Fisherman run a ferry-boat at the Town's expense by some means the nuisance should died is the opinion of Yours & co...

A Polish exile now in Washington to a friend in Augusta, Ga., that lies in Russian Poland, with an $1,000 to the family, are desirous owing to the United States to engage cultural labor. Mrs. Sommerfield and two daughters Mrs. Barnett and children of San Prancho are visiting Anaheim, and are the hosts of P. Davis, Eaq. Our attention was yesterday called to a very skillful piece of work done by Mrs. Barnett. It is a wreath made of fish scales and eyes, fastened on wire. The effect is very beautiful, and enhanced by the blue background of the one in which it is encased. As a piece of artistic handwork it is deserving of mention, the fact that the scales and eyes of fish are only material used, renders it all the more an object of curiosity. It will be extended for a few days at the Merchant Morning Emporium of M. A. Mendelson. At the meeting of the Fire Company Wednesday night, the Secretary reported amounts received and expended by theatic committee. The committee to amend laws made their report, which was laid the table, and the committee discharged thirty-eight members signed the constituent Messrs. Plato, Blanken, Zeyn, Lynill,enson, Bennerscheidt and Payne were appointed a committee of seven to assist the Band in the details of the pic-nic to be on the Fourth of July. It was moved carried that a committee of three, of whom one is to be the Chief, be appointed authority to use the funds of the treasury to purchase the most necessary utensils equipments for the use of the Fire Department; provided, the Trustees of the man of Andheim will issue to the Fire Department the same amount of town warrants; hers, Blanken and Knox were appointed committee, to act in conjunction with Chief. Isn't it about time for somebody to move matter of celebrating the Fourth of July? shall we let it slide this year? Anaheim Downey are preparing to celebrate; suppose we leave the field to our neighbors, and attribute ourselves among them for a change? express what is just the very best thing you can do. We will be two picnics at Anaheim on the fourth, and you will be welcomed with open arms at both of them. Charter a special and come down, by all means. Not only is Mr. Guinn a very able her, but he possesses the love and confidence of his pupils, which, after all, is probably the secret of his success. Some years ago pupils made him a present of a handsome chin in a token of our friendship. Board of Supervisors. MONDAY, June 4th, 1677. Board met pursuant to adjournment. Present—Messrs.

In the matter of the petition and bond for arrival from Downey to Sanford's bridge— Thermometrical Record. The following is our record for the week ending Wednesday p.m., June 6th, giving lowest point by night preceding date, and highest by day: DATE May 31 June 1 June 2 June 3 June 4 June 5 June 6 June 7 June 8 June 9 June 10 June 11 June 12 June 13 June 14 June 15 June 16 June 17 June 18 June 19 June 20 June 21 June 22 June 23 June 24 June 25 June 26 June 27 June 28 June 29 June 30 June 31 Average Temperature Average highest and lowest Average for month of May Average for month of May, 1876 Average for month of May, 1875 Average for month of May, 1874 The month of May has been spoken of frequently as usually cold. The record proves it an error. For the last twenty days the mercury at seven A.m. has not been below 60° nor above 54°. An honest editor remarks: When the late Governor of the Persian province of Fars retired from office the Government officials put him in the stocks and pounded the soles of his feet until he dingorged $600,000 of crooked salary. If the Government of the United States would adopt that system, five hundred million crutches would carry the population of the republic to and from its daily labor. And if we knew where we could get hold of a man who would give down like the late worthy Governor of Fars, we would gather him by the ankles, stand him on his head,and welt the soles of his feet until his back-bone went through the top of his head and stuck nine inches in the ground. Astoria, Oregon, has forty saloons and no water works. What does Astoria want with water works when it has forty saloons? One of Brigham Young's favorite expressions is, "The mother of some of my children." Mrs. Flora Brown is now offering her large and complete stock of ladies' and children's fine or dress Hats and Bonnets for cost price—some styles even less. Finding herself very much overstocked with this class of millinery goods she decides upon this plan to close out. Stylish Bonnets,fancy brim and soft crown.for 75 cents; Chip Bonnets,50; Fine Leghorns,$1 25; Childrens' hats at prices to correspond.

To the Public. We have just printed and bound a large number of NOTE BOOKS AND ORDER Not only is Mr. Guinn a very able her, but he possesses the love and confidence of his pupils, which, after all, is probably the secret of his success. Some years ago pupils made him a present of a handsome chain as a token of the genuine esteem which they held him. The handsome sent he received yesterday from a parent, useful for the progress made by his son under his tuition is additional evidence his labor is appreciated. Public School Examination. The annual examination in the public schools was commenced on Wednesday morning in U.S. history, composition, geography and arithmetic. The examination was opened yesterday. The forenoon was occupied with arithmetic, botany and reading, pupils acquiring themselves with credit their teacher as well as to themselves. In afternoon the advanced class in arithmecited, and we were glad to notice that pupils went through their work, not as if had committed the whole matter to story and had merely to "shoot it off," in a manner which showed that they uncood the subject and were thinking it out they went along. The closing recitation consisted of the reading of letters and comings by the pupils, which showed a fair technical acquaintance with the English language. Mr. Guijn's request W. H. Henderson be a few appropriate remarks at the close; which Master Mannie Davis stepped hard and presented Mr. Guinn with a some gold-mounted cane. This testical was the gift, we understand, of Mr. Davis, and is expressive of his high aptation of his son's teacher. There was a good attendance of visitors sent, and all seemed well pleased with proceedings. The examination of the intermediate Department will be concluded morning, and that of the Primary school afternoon. A Nuisance. PORTERS GAZETTE—I have been patiently waiting for that keen-eyed critic, "Iola," to the attention of the Town Trustees' nuisance that has existed on Centre street some time past, but as he fails to do so, I can take up the cause of the people self. I allude to the overflow of water on our street, near Palm. There has been a lot of water existing entirely across the street there for some time, and a perfect chance it is. Teams are obliged to drive of their way, and by degrees a large hole being worn in the street. I would suggest that there is much aerial understanding road—Report of viewers and map adopted, and road declared a public highway, from Temple street to east line of San Jose de Buenos Ayres rancho. Branch road No. two abandoned from corner of sections 10, 11, 14 15 north, and road laid on line between J. T. Gower and C. Cole for one mile. Hearing of the road through the San Jose de Buenos Ayres rancho continued till July 5th. WEDNESDAY, June 6. Board met. Present—Hannon, Spurgeon, Morton and Young. T. J. Ellis appointed to re-locate Durrel road, where the same is in dispute. Reports of County Treasurer, County Auditor and County Judge received and filed. In the matter of the petition and bond for a road from Downey to Sanford's bridge—Bond not signed and referred back for signature. Petition for a change in Ballona and Cienga School Districts—Granted. Ordered that the Mission San Gabriel and Los Angeles road be opened to a width of fifty feet, between Tuch and Guillen, in San Gabriel Mission, in accordance with an order of the Board of Supervisors, dated November 24th, 1854. Ordered that E. F. Spence be allowed $45 for transportation of A. Killen. Westminster Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. McPherson & Co., and Edwarls & Co. have their headers in full operation here. Reapers and mowers are working steadily, and the hay and grain crops are being rapidly cut. During the past week we have had quite warm weather, causing corn, beans, potatoes, &c., to grow rapidly. Miss Leffler's new house is finished and the family now occupy it. J. A. McFadden has stopped boring at Garden Grove and brought his tools back here. He is now boring at Mr. Penhall's where, Tuesday, they had a queer experience. After boring about 70 feet, they struck a strata so soft that the pipe went down without any effort, and on sinking a few feet deeper the pipe parted, the lower end dropping. This compelled them to pull up and start anew. No blame can be attached to the borer for the accident. McCoy & Taylor sunk W. F. Poor's well 282 feet, then pulled up 70 feet and pierced the pipe, obtaining a three-fourth-inch flow. They are now boring on D. W. Lawton's place. As Caldwell and Chase were pulling the pipe from an old well on Mr. T. Edward's dairy ranch, last week (Tuesday) the ground under the derrick settled, causing the tools to tumble over. The well originally flowed 18 inches, but for several months it threw out quantities of sand and gravel, and gradually the flow diminished. This constant throwing out of sand made quite an underground excavation, which caved when they had pulled about 30 feet of pipe. No damage was done, nor was any one hurt. They then set the tools up further from the milk-house and obtained 28 inches flow at 82 feet, and are now boring for J. Torrey. G. M. Crittenden bored 332 feet for the Bowleys, without finding enough water to give them anything but a small well. As soon as heavier tools can be hired to pull the pipe another attempt will be made. Ward & Baker are boring for Mr. John Silkwood, north of town. Some parties at Garden Grove have put up windmills to pump the water from the wells which have ceased to flow. The land there is so much higher than ours that the pressure is not strong enough, in many instances, to force the water over the pipe. Quite a number came down here from Garden Grove on Tuesday evening, to attend the Choral Union rehearsal. To the Public.

Are questions that have been repeatedly asked by Pond's Extract is the quintessence of the Tirgites Hamamela, or Witch Hare, more familiar to our country friends as the Spotted Alder. It grows luxuriantly along bricks and rivulets, and is indigenous to the fens and marshes of Virginia. As a medicament, although not by any means a colloction, it is a panacea for numerous ills to which the human flesh is heir. For paints of all kinds it is invaluable, and no family should be without it. For our part we never take a journey, whether short or long, without first placing in our valleys a bottle of the Extract. It has a specific action over all hemorrhage, whether from the nose, the throat or the lungs. As we write the subject calls to our mind a case where we applied Pond's Extract with the most astonishing success. It was in a Western foot, in the heart of the Indian country. One of the officers of the post, our second lieutenant, a hearty, robust man, of full habit, was suddenly taken with bleeding from the lungs, and nothing that the post physician could do for him gave him any relief. Knowing the virtue of the Extract, I suggested it to a derrier resort. It was pooh-pooed; but as the rose was a desperate one I gave the patient ten drops at once. The blood became less in quantity immediately; five minutes later ten drops more were given, and ten minutes afterward the same quantity was again administered, when the hemorrhage ceased entirely. Six years have elapsed since then, and he is now as robust as ever. He has had no return of the hemorrhage. We can safely recommend the Extract to the public, knowing it to be perfectly harmless and infallible in all pain, and to be a sure and certain specifie for every ill for which its proprietors claim it to be a curative. It has only to be introduced to become a household necessity. A. W.
