[FROM SATURDAY'S DAILY.] The Presbyterian Sunday School will realize between $60 and $70 profit from the concert and fair on Thursday evening. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: Two kegs beer, 7 cases eggs, 2 barrels glassware. Justice Clark yesterday put a man named Moreno under bonds to keep the peace. He had threatened to do bodily injury to Mr. Furness. We direct attention to the card of Mr. Boyce the gunsmith. He is a very proficient workman, and does a surprising amount of work for a very little money.

The public, or that portion of it who live, move and have their being in Anaheim and vicinity, are exercised over two weighty conundrums—Who is Iola? Was Cunningham lynched? The facts in the latter case as we have been able to gather them, are these: In the Gazette of last Wednesday morning we gave an account of an outrage committed by Cunningham. Bickmore, the father of the assaulted girl, with some companions procured a warrant for the arrest of Cunningham, and he was captured at San Bernardino.

There was a large attendance at the meeting of the Choral Society on Friday evening. The Committee on constitution and by-laws were given until next Friday to report. It was decided to charge an entrance fee of $1, and it is expected that the expenses, after the first month, will be paid from the proceeds of entertainments given by the Society. In our report of the shipments from the depot yesterday morning, an error occurred. Twenty-seven kegs of beer were shipped to Los Angeles instead of two, as printed. And this gives us an opportunity to call attention to the large trade with Los Angeles which has been built up by Mr. Hinde. Large shipments of beer are constantly made to that city, which is evidence of the superiority of the beer made in Anaheim over that made in Los Angeles. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: Edwards & Rowe, 2 boxes fruit; E Turner, 1 sack peanuts; Cahen & Willard, 24 pkgs mdse; R McGibbon, 1 box hardware; Alward Bros & Co., 40 sacks flour 3 pkgs mdse; Win Kearny, 2 kegs, 1 butter box; R B, 12 beer kegs; A G Teebe, 12 pkgs mdse; S P Hunkle, 1 pkgs bungs; Seymour & Co, 20 coils rope; J Bennerscheidt, 1 box hardware; Mrs. F.

A telegram says: "Mr. Hahn and wife, of Anaheim, who were returning from Europe, were on the City of San Francisco when that vessel went down. They lost over $3,000 worth of rare presents bought for friends at home." The Mr. Hahn alluded to in the above dispatch was a resident of Anaheim ten years ago, and owned the vineyard now belonging to Mr. F. A. Korn. Some of the presents may have been intended for his friends here, and there is mourning in consequence. Was Cunningham Lynched? The public, or that portion of it who live, move and have their being in Anaheim and vicinity, are exercised over two weighty conundrums—Who is Iola? Was Cunningham lynched? The facts in the latter case as we have been able to gather them, are these: In the Gazette of last Wednesday morning we gave an account of an outrage committed by Cunningham. Bickmore, the father of the assaulted girl, with some companions procured a warrant for the arrest of Cunningham, and he was captured at San Bernardino.

Leonard, of the firm of Look & Leonard, has been appointed local agent. Early yesterday morning, while the tapers in the Catholic Cathedral were being lighted, the decorations upon the altar were accidentally set on fire. The fire spread and destroyed a large and valuable oil painting, and injured somewhat-the other articles near the altar, but it was soon subdued without an alarm. Express. A fine silk handkerchief was taken from the pocket of a visitor to the Tivoli Gardens on the occasion of the Firemen's Picnic, and a common handkerchief substituted, bearing the initials A. H. The joke having been carried far enough, the owner of the silk "wipe" wants it returned as it was a present to him. If this is not done, exposure of the offending party will follow. The shipwrecked mariners arrived in town yesterday morning, took breakfast at the Planters' Hotel and passage by the morning train. They put their autographs on the hotel register as follows: Capt. J. J. Waddall at large; H. A. Jerome, Buena Vista; M. H. Sargent, Boston, without Inggage; F. A. Saltwell, Valparaiso, without Inggage; R. Ascoli, Guatemala; James Stewart, New York; K. Sutton, New York. The Republican says: The city of Los Angeles is comparatively young, but in its short existence has seen many changes, some good, some bad. Among the latter were the Cantonella swindle and the Santa Monica fraud. Many of our people predicted the results of these transactions, but such persons were denounced as prejudiced, and opposed to the interests of the great coming city of Los Angeles. These swindles have passed, and by their termination proved the good judgment of those who denounced them. The same prediction was made in regard to our railroad interests. To-day, to express it exactly, the city is sold out lock, stock and barrel. Was Cunningham Lynched? The public, or that portion of it who live, move and have their being in Anaheim and vicinity, are exercised over two weighty conundrums—Who is Iola? Was Cunningham lynched? The facts in the latter case as we have been able to gather them, are these: In the Gazette of last Wednesday morning we gave an account of an outrage committed by Cunningham. Bickmore, the father of the assaulted girl, with some companions procured a warrant for the arrest of Cunningham, and he was captured at San Bernardino. The subsequent proceedings were related by Bickmore to Justice Bailey. He said that a Spaniard, the prisoner and his brother, himself, comprised the party. When near Anaheim, his (Bickmore's) horse stepped into quicksand, and, as the horse was floundering, the prisoner and his brother, who were both mounted, put spurs to their horses and darted into the willows near at hand, and by the time his horse reached terra firma pursuit was hopeless. He further stated that he would go in re-pursuit of Cunningham immediately. This conversation was held on Friday; but Bickmore has evidently reconsidered his determination, as he was seen at work in the Swamp yesterday morning. It is the almost universal opinion that Cunningham was lynched, and while regret is expressed at the lawlessness of the proceeding, no one denies that his punishment was too severe or unmerited. [FROM TUESDAY'S DAILY.] There was a prize fight on the Mesa on Sunday. The latest wrinkle is the establishment of a bath house in Anaheim, where hot and cold baths may be obtained for 15 cts. A Frenchman named F. Noseret suicided in Los Angeles on Saturday by taking strychnine. The Orange ditch burst in one of the cuts on Sunday. It will probably require a week to repair the damage. The picnic of the Anaheim Brass Band at Santiago on Sunday was a grand success. A large number were present. A little daughter of Mr. Baner fell into the ditch yesterday. She was rescued just in time to escape drowning. Monterey Californian town are at once struck with unusual beauty or taints. Monterey is littered with secret of their universality enough. As soon as a M to show signs of ugliness drowned. Else how count town be preserved? First Briton—"Hi suet news from Hammerica."

"Hi'm not hastonished a blawsted country would hinstitutions." Horace Barnes, of Pointracted in 1850 to recover treasure of the frigate H ninety-six years ago, near after five years' labor and that $40,000, he gave it however, secured the serge of Presque Ilse, Md., a new resume work at once. Europe is now taking of American fruit. Tho to over $2,500,000 worth compared with $600,000 period the year before largely in this movement exported over 12,000,000 since last June as compounds the previous yeas. Judge O. C. Pratt Jones, both of California New York on Saturday. BY TELEGRAPH. Attempted Assassination. SALT LAKE, June 1. Two attempts have been made in this city to assassinate Mr. Stillson, correspondent of the New York Herald. On Saturday night, about ten o'clock, while returning from Camp Douglass, he was fired upon by a man who was concealed under a tree, just east of Brigham Young's residence. Stillson drew up his team and turned around, but the man disappeared. To-day, between 12 and 1 o'clock, while sitting in his room in the Walker House, a man knucked at his door, and on being bidden to enter, went in. Mr. Stillson rose to receive him, when the man presented a paper, saying, "Here is an attidavit which may be of some use to you," and as the correspondent extended his hand to receive it, the man stabbed him in the left side, saying as he did so, "Take that, you pretty." The knife passed through Mr. Stillson's coat and vest, and through two cabinet sized pictures of his mother and some private papers, and also through a backle in his suspenders, making a flesh wound over the region of the heart. The blow felled Mr. Stillson to the floor and knocked the breath out of him, but the wound is not dangerous. He recovered himself as soon as he could and followed the would-be assassin, but the man fled beyond sight and hearing. The first attempt at assassination Mr. Stillson thought wise to keep from the public, and therefore told only two or three of his intimate friends. Marshal Nelson has taken a description of the man, and has a force of deputies hunting for him. Hayes in Favor of the Texas Pacific. NEW YORK, June 1. The Times's Washington special says: "The statement is made by persons who are close to the President, that he will recommend in his first message to Congress, legislation in aid of the construction of a Southern Pacific railway. It is said that the President will not commit himself in favor of the Texas-Pacific road, nor any other particular State. He came here yesterday with his wife for the purpose of removing four of Perrie's children by his divorced wife and the tragedy grew out of this. Perrie was promptly lodged in jail where he now lies. There is great excitement at San Bernardino and considerable talk of lynching." Foreign News. PARIS, June 1. La Republique Francaise says that the Chamber of Deputies will not vote the budget while the Broglie ministry remains in power. This decision is in accordance with the advice of Thiers. The Government intends to prosecute the President of the Municipal Council for remarks, insulting to President MacMahon, made during a speech at St. Dennis. The students of Paris have presented an address to Gambetta. The address is moderate in tone and thanks Gambetta for his efforts in behalf of the Republic. Gambetta congratulates the students on their firm and patient attitude. He expresses the conviction that the bounds of legality would not be overpassed, and that the question must be referred to the judgment of the country. In the possible contingency of President MacMahon's resignation, he said that M. Thiers was a statesman and well fitted to become again a perfectly constitutional President. The editors of the Radical have been sentenced to three months' imprisonment and $5000 fine for insulting President MacMahon and defending the Commune. The publication of the Radical is suspended for six months. At Perpignan the editors of two Republican newspapers have been sentenced to fifteen months imprisonment and $400 fine respectively, for similar offenses. Prosecution has been instituted against the Algerian newspaper, the Courier d'Orient. The Monileur says that Count de Chambord has advised his adherents in the Senate to vote in favor of a dissolution of the Chamber, so as not to render the Legitimist party responsible for the grave consequences which might ensue if dissolution was refused. The Government has not yet taken a definite resolution about reproposing the Chamber. The Left appears resolved to oppose a second prorogation as unconstitutional. Land Office Decisions. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: Webster, Howe & Co., 10 coils rope, 6 egg boxes, 1 case mdse; J Colin, 1 case cigars; M Mendelson, 1 case cigars; L Gildmacher, 1 pkgm dase, S J Lowe, 1 case hardware; D J Sorenson, 1 bag beans; G H Little, 1 pkg stock; I Cohn, 60 sks ilour, 18 pkgm dase, E B Fawer, 1 egg case; G C Knox, 2 road scrapers; C & W, 20 sks ilour, 10pkgm dase; Carey & Sons, 3 pkgm dase; H W Rhodes, 1 sk beans; R B, 13 beer kegs; D G Chilson, 18 pkgm dase. Some suggestive facts are given in connection with the sale of the Santa Monica Railroad to the Central Pacific monopoly, says the San Diego Union. This transaction carries with it the grade beyond Los Angeles and the occupation of the Cajon Pass. The possession of the pass is the most valuable part of the purchase. It enables the Central Pacific to complete its programme, marked out from the first, for the "Southern Pacific" branch, which will now be extended in a direct line through San Francisco to the Colorado River. Los Angeles will be left in full enjoyment of the facilities afforded by the San Fernando branch; but the town will do no business with the sea of any consequence. Her aspirations in this direction are at an end. Los Angeles, from this moment, occupies precisely the position as to business as San Jose. The San Fernando and Spadra connections with the Southern Pacific will be of the same kind of importance to Los Angeles that the railroad connections of San Jose are to that town. In short, the position of Los Angeles is that of an inland town, doing business with San Francisco. The construction of a few miles of rail through the Cajon Pass will straighten the Southern Pacific, and leave Los Angeles about 80 miles south of the main line between San Francisco and Yuma. Those few miles of road will be built as soon as the Central Pacific arranges its connection with the Texas Pacific. It will endeavor, at the next session of Congress, to secure the passage of the Texas Pacific "compromise" bill (giving its "Southern Pacific" branch the right (and subsidy) to build on through the Texas line, to meet the Texas Pacific. There will be a contest over this scheme, which has the opposition of those who want the Texas Pacific to be an independent competing line, through to the Pacific, at San Diego. When this contest is decided, the Cajon Pass "shortcut" will be built. A telegram from Chicago says the new Grand Jury is investigating some remarkable charges made by the Post, and apparently well substantiated in some respects. They are that the late Sullivan-Hanford murder case was tried before a jury packed through the connivance of bailiffs, bunko steerers, thieves and police, acting under instructions from their Superintendent, Hickey; that the Mayor was concerned in the business, indirectly through his wicked partner in business; that in return for this service the thieves and scallywags receive premission to ply their trade unmolested, and that they were organized into repeating bands on election day, and, under the direction of a well-known "crook," voted systematically for the present city government; that Sullivan aided them as recompense for their work for him; that, besides these facts, which have been sworn to Nelson has taken a description of the man, and has a force of deputies hunting for him. Hayes in Favor of the Texas Pacific. NEW YORK, June 1. The Times's Washington special says: "The statement is made by persons who are close to the President, that he will recommend in his first message to Congress, legislation in aid of the construction of a Southern Pacific railway. It is said that the President will not commit himself in favor of the Texas-Pacific road, nor any other particular scheme, but will make a general recommendation for national aid to construct a road to the Pacific by the Southern route. The friends of the Texas-Pacific are confident that recommendation of the President in favor of a Southern line to the Pacific will help that scheme, and that they will be able to secure at the coming session, legislation that will enable them to construct that road. It is also stated with considerable distinctness, as coming from the President, that, should the Texas people succeed in having their bill passed by Congress, it will receive Executive approval." Important Order From the War Office. WASHINGTON, June 2. The following letter from the Secretary of War to General Sherman, regarding the Rio Grande trouble, was sent yesterday afternoon: WASHINGTON, June 1. General T. W. Sherman:—The report of General Shaftner, Lieutenant-Colonel of the 24th Infantry, commanding the District of Neuces, Texas, concerning recent raids by Mexican and Indians from Mexico into Texas, for marauding purposes, bearing your endorsement of the 29th, has been submitted to the President and has, together with numerous other reports and documents relating to the same subject, been duly considered. The President desires the utmost vigilance on the part of the military forces in Texas, to be exercised for the suppression of these raids. It is very desirable that the efforts to this end, in so far at least as they necessarily involve operations on both sides of the border, be made with the co-operation of the Mexican authorities, and you will instruct General Orl, commanding in Texas, to invite co-operation on the part of the local authorities, and to inform them that, while the President is anxious to avoid giving offense to Mexico, he is nevertheless convinced that the invasion of our territory by armed and organized bodies of thieves and robbers to prey upon our citizens, should not be longer endured. General Orl will at once notify the Mexican authorities along the Texas border of the great desire of the President to unite with them in efforts to suppress this lawlessness. At the same time he will inform those authorities that, if the government of Mexico shall continue to neglect its duty in suppressing these outrages, the duty will devolve on this Government and will be performed, even if its performance shall render necessary the occasional Land Office Decisions. WASHINGTON, June 4. Copp's Land Owner for June reports a decision of the Interior Department, in substance as follows: The burden of proving that land in dispute, excepted from a railway grant, is upon him who affirms the existence of a valid pre-emption claim thereto, at date the grant took effect. He must show that the pre-emption not only initiated a prior valid settlement, but that he possessed all the required personal qualifications. The filing of the record is prima facie evidence of a valid right against a railway, and to secure the tract proper evidence must be furnished by the company to show that the pre-emption claim was abandoned or invalid at the time right of road attached. After the lands have been offered at public sale and then withdrawn they may be restored to homestead and pre-emption entry, but until they have again been offered at public sale they are not subject to private entry. The Commissioner of the General Land Office has a right to correct what he considers an erroneous decision without first giving notice of such intention to the attorneys of record in a case, but, as a matter of courtesy such notice should be given when the interests of the Government will not be injured. Deputy Mineral Surveyors must enter into bonds with one or more sureties in the sum of $100000 for faithful performance of their duties in survey of mineral claims. A survey under the mining acts does not withdraw the land embraced thereby from sale or subsequent survey, unless followed by an application for a patent. A party having no interest in a mining application, but standing in relation of amicus curioe has no right of appeal from any decision in the case. Railroad Accident. SCRANTON, June 2. The Republican this morning hasthe following particulars ofthe wreckingofthe train last evening onthe Lehigh Valley Railroad.The first intimationthe engineer hadofthe accidentwasa violent rockingofthe train.A minute laterthefirstofthepassengerscarsmountedtheforwardtruckonwhichitrested,andwasprecipitateddownanembankamenta distanceof fifteenfeet,togetherwiththreeothercoaches,ailladenwithpassengers.Thecouplingbrokeleavingtheengineandonebaggagecarin safetyonthetrack.Thepainfulscenewhichfollowedbaffilesdescription.Wailsofangish renttheairasthepassengers draggedthemselfsfromthedebrisofthewreck.Thefourcarswere Monterey Californian: Visitors to this town are at once struck with the great number and unusual beauty of the girls it contains. Monterey is literally a paradise for girls. They outnumber the boys two to one. This fact is hard to account for, but the secret of their universal beauty is simple enough. As soon as a Monterey girl begins to show signs of ugliness she is quietly drowned. Else how could the credit of the town be preserved? First Briton—"Hi suppose you've 'eard the news from Hamerica!" Second Briton—"Hi can't say that hi 'ave. Hi don't take much hinterest in Hamerican affairs." First Briton—"Well, the Hamericans, you know, 'av'ad what they call a republic. Now the 'ole thing is gone, hand they've put the Government under a count." Second Briton—"Hi'm not hastenished at all. Hi knew that blawsted country would soon be haping hour institutions." Horace Barnes, of Point Morris, Me., contracted in 1850 to recover the $3,000,000 of treasure of the frigate Hussar, which sank ninety-six years ago, near Hell Gate; but after five years' labor and an expense of more than $40,000, he gave it up. He has now, however, secured the services of Sidney Cook of Presque Ilse, Md., a noted diver, and will resume work at once. Europe is now taking surprising quantities of American fruit. The purchases amount to over $2,500,000 worth since last June, compared with $600,000 worth in the same period the year before. Dried apples figure largely in this movement. This county has exported over 12,000,000 pounds of them since last June, as compared with 522,000 pounds the previous year. Judge O. C. Pratt and Miss Lizzie E. Jones, both of California, were married in New York on Saturday. The invasion of our territory by armed and organized bodies of thieves and robbers to prey upon our citizens, should not be longer endured. General Ord will at once notify the Mexican authorities along the Texas border of the great desire of the President to unite with them in efforts to suppress this lawlessness. At the same time he will inform those authorities that, if the government of Mexico shall continue to neglect its duty in suppressing these outrages, the duty will devolve on this Government and will be performed, even if its performance shall render necessary the occasional crossing of the border by our troops. You will therefore direct Gen. Ord that, in case the lawless incursions continue, he will be at liberty to use his own discretion, when in pursuit of the marauders, and when his troops are either in sight of them or upon a fresh trail, to follow them across the Rio Grande, and to overtake and punish them as well as retake the stolen property taken from our citizens and found in their hands, on the Mexican side of the line. I have the honor to be, yours very respectfully, Geo. W. McCrary, Sec'y of War. New York, June 2. The Times’ Washington special, speaking of McCrary's letter to Sherman, says: "The letter is understood by Sherman to mean that the military is not to wait until the Mexican Government is heard from, before pursuing marauders over the lines, but is construed as giving permission to Gen. Ord, when in pursuit of robbers, to cross over, if he thinks he can catch them in a reasonable time, and if he is in sight of them or following a fresh trail, to go a day's march into the Mexican country. McCrary is of the opinion that the mere publication of the order will go far toward stopping marauding, for the knowledge that the military are not to be allowed to pursue them beyond the Rio Grande has always been a temptation to raiders to run over into Texas. Shooting Affray. Colton, Cal., June 1. George Perrie killed a man named Hicock at San Bernardino at 2 o'clock this afternoon, in an affray growing out of domestic difficulties. Perrie also attempted to kill his divorced wife, who is now the wife of Hicock, who is a resident of Alvarado, this last evening on the Lenigh Valley Railroad. The first intimation the engineer had of the accident was a violent rocking of the train. A minute later the first of the passengers cars mounted the forward truck on which it rested, and was precipitated down an embankment a distance of fifteen feet, together with three other coaches, all laden with passengers. The coupling broke, leaving the engine and one baggage car in safety on the track. The painful scene which followed baffles description. Wails of anguish rent the air as the passengers dragged themselves from the debris of the wreck. The four cars were smashed to pieces and many of the passengers were jammed down into the most excruciating positions. Mrs. Homer, of Scranton, and Mrs. Hickey of Tonawanda were killed, and seventeen others severely injured, four of them fatally. Most of the injured are said to belong to Tonawanda and vicinity. A miraculous escape is recorded in the case of Mrs. Cool, of West Pittston, who together with her three children were among the passengers and passed through the wreck with only a few slight scratches. The work of caring for the wounded was a painful one, owing to the distance they had to be removed. Assistance was rendered as promptly as possible and every thing was done that could be accomplished to assuage the pain of the sufferers. Mormon Tactics. SALT LAKE, June 2. As soon as the fact of Mr. Stillson being stabbed became known on the streets of this city, last evening the Mormons started a story to the effect that, in a fit of drunkenness, he did the act himself. The Mormon press denounced him in the most vituperative terms, and Mayor Little, at the head of a squad of Mormon policemen, went to the Walker House to investigate the affair, the object being, if possible, to break down the character of the correspondent. The Mayor called it an informal investigation by the citizens, but he brought in the train several representatives of the Morman press, two Notaries, and the Private Secretary of Brigham Young, who were sworn by one of the Notaries to take the proceedings down in short-hand. Mr. Stillson at first declined to appear before the self-constituted tribunal, because it was not vested with legal authority. His friends, however, persuaded him Day with his wife four of Perrie's wife and of this. Perrie in jail where excitement at adderable talk of PARIS, June 1.

The stab he received is quite sore to-day. SALT LAKE, June 3. The Mormon press continues to assail Jerome B. Stillson, the New York Herald correspondent, stigmatizing the attempted assassination as a hoax, and denouncing him as a drunken set. The persistent lying of the Mormon press, is provoking intense indignation among the Gentiles, as the attempt of the Mormon police authorities to establish these assertions as facts, yesterday utterly failed. General Crook arrived in the city tonight to investigate the rumors relative to the situation here. The Stockton Grand Jury by a vote of 10 for 9 against, ignored the bills against the De Youngs. After the grand jury adjourned, two of the members had a collision. One of them, who was in favor of finding a bill against the De Youngs, told the other, who was against, that he would not believe him under oath, that he had violated his duty, ignored positive testimony and disregarded the law. A fight ensued, but they were separated before any serious injury was inflicted upon either. Juan Salazar was executed at San Rafael on Thursday afternoon, for the murder of Wm. Brown. Mons. V. A.
