A dispatch from San Bernardino says: George M. Perry, who has been on trial for the past four days for the murder of Hicock, committed suicide in the county jail on Thursday about five o'clock by taking poison. The verdict of the jury yesterday was murder in the second degree, and Perry was awaiting his sentence.
Express: The Anaheim Gazette complains of the jail in that town as being badly lighted, badly ventilated and altogether unwholesome. The Gazette, however, strikes a vein of genuine humor when it says it is only used temporarily, and that prisoners when convicted are immediately sent to the county jail. The jail at Anaheim must be the champion defective one in America if it can surpass ours in all the qualities that go to make up a prison unfit for the incarceration of human beings. The long-time prisoners who are transferred to the county jail appreciate the delicate humor of the Gazette, for they know how it is themselves.

Colton Semi-Tropic: A sad accident occurred on the train from Yuma which arrived here yesterday morning. Mr. J.E.Gardner of San Francisco, who held a ticket from the Colorado river to Los Angeles, when near Pilot Knob station became overcome with the excessive heat, and despite the exertions of Conductor Mayo and other gentlemen on the train, died in a few minutes. We learn that his family is in San Francisco and that they were at once telegraphed the fact of his death. Mr.Gardner was about sixty years of age and kept a hotel at Elko, Nevada.

On Friday a collision between a hand-car and a special engine occurred on the Southern Pacific near San Fernando, which resulted in the death of John Heaton, foreman of bridge construction and framework for the road, and caused serious injury to Charles Vallancur, a saloon keeper of Los Angeles, who had his leg broken in two places. The occupants of the car were the two above named and Adalph Siefert and Fred White, both employees of the road. The two latter escaped injury. The coroner's jury rendered a verdict that the accident was unavoidable, and that nobody was to blame.
The Cajon Irrigation Company held a meeting at Kroeger's Hall yesterday afternoon. The excitement of the primary election rendered the gathering rather small, for when did a man display much interest in the question of water when whisky was so freely dispensed? The following subscription paper was presented, which was numerously signed, the subscriptions amounting to $12,600:
We, the undersigned, hereby bind ourselves to each other and agree to form ourselves into a corporation for the purpose of bringing water from the Santa Ana river, to irrigate the lands in the Rancho Canyon de Santa Ana, Haneck ranch and the San Juan y Cajon de Santa Ana, and for the purpose we subscribe the sums set opposite our names as stock in the said corporation, to be known and operated as the Cajon Irrigation Company. The said capital stock to be paid in installments as needed in the prosecution of the work, in U.S.gold coin.

Neither of them are permanently injured, although one of them has wandered in his mind since the shock. For half an hour the rain was heavy at San Fernando, rivaling any of the Winter downpours in volume.

Items from the Los Nietos Valley Courier: The following officers of Los Nietos Lodge, I. O. O. F., were installed on Monday evening: W. F. Cooper, N. G.; H. R. Gray, V. G.; F. E. Haskell, Sec.; B. W. Tarwater, P. S.; W. McCormick, Treas... We understand that the erection of the College here is a foregone conclusion. The plans have been completed and accepted, and it is expected that work will commence in about two weeks. The location is in the rear of Judge Crawford's dwelling, fronting Depot and Fifth streets, and is admirably located... We understand that Mr. W. H. Mason is a candidate for County School Superintendent before the approaching Democratic County Convention.
Mr. H. McLellan, agent of the steamship company, says that there is really little increase of freight charges under the new schedule of the Coast Steamship Co. Indeed, on some classes of freight, notably the heavy and balky kinds, the rates are in many cases less than under the old system. On grain the rate, $5 per ton, is the same as before, the only difference being that the steamship company give a through receipt, instead of requiring the shipper to pay railroad freight. Another advantage of the new arrangement is that hereafter all freights will be carried by weight instead of measurement. With regard to passenger rates, the increase is really but $2 instead of $3, as the steamship company pay the railroad fare, which heretofore was an extra charge.
[FROM SUNDAY'S DAILY.]
The inquiries for land suitable for farming, near Anaheim, has been increasing during the last month.
Conductor Mateer is quite sick at Santa Ana. His many Anaheim friends are sorry to hear of his misfortune.
We, the undersigned, hereby bind ourselves to each other and agree to form ourselves into a corporation for the purpose of bringing water from the Santa Ana river, to irrigate the lands in the Rancho Canyon de Santa Ana, Hancock rancho and the San Juan y Cajon de Santa Ana, and for the said purpose we subscribe the sums set opposite our names as stock in the said corporation, to be known and operated as the Cajon Irrigation Company. The said capital stock to be paid in installments as needed in the prosecution of the work, in U.S. gold coin.
The Primaries.
The fact that there were two factions in the field yesterday, rendered the contest for delegates to the Democratic County Convention an exceedingly warm one—indeed, it might be put down at about 98° in the shade. Both parties had abundance of workers scattered among the highways and byways, and some very responsible electioneering was done. The iron-clad test was only administered in a few cases, but the challenged ones swallowed it, with but one exception. One hundred and seventy-nine votes were cast. The following is the summary:
W. M. Bailey.....113
Theo. Rimpau.....112
A. Langenberger.....111
W.J. Smith.....110
C. Mossman.....69
A. Bailey.....68
I. Cohen.....65
D.W.C.Cowan.....63
The delegates consequently are Messrs. W. M. Bailey, Langemberger, Rimpau and Smith. They are supposed to be favorable to the nomination of R.W. Scott for Assemblyman, H.M.Mitchell for Sheriff, and A.M.Stephens for County Judge.

The prohibitionists of Compton have adopted a vigorous, cowardly and unlawful way of fighting the devil. On last Thursday night, a party of them, wearing masks, visited the saloon, took the proprietor from his bed, and while some of the party carried him off a short distance the others demolished his house.
On Saturday morning, two gentlemen who were coming up from Santa Monica in a buggy found that a huge post had been laid across the railroad track, with the evident intention of wrecking the Santa Monica train. The obstruction was removed, and the railroad officials notified to keep a look-out.

BY TELEGRAPH.
Land Decision.
Santa Barbara, July 19.
A telegram from Washington announces the decision by the Commissioner of the General Land Office of the famous Sapporo case, giving the claimant all land included in the survey of 1871—six leagues—except the Santa Clara river bed. The claimant is the estate of the late T. Wallace Moore, who was brutally murdered by midnight assassins on his manch house on the Sappa, on the 24th of March last.

Crops in Nebraska and Iowa.
Omaha, July 20.
The Herald to-morrow will publish the crop reports from thirty or forty of the principal points in Nebraska and Western Iowa. They are without exception, of a most favorable character, indicating the largest yield of all kinds of grain known for years. Barley and rye are nearly all harvested and wheat will be begun upon next week. The quality and quantity is exceptionally good and the acreage largely in excess of previous years.
Run on Chicago Banks.
Chicago, July 20.
The run upon the State Savings Bank this morning was considerably increased. Unusual activity was also noticed at the counters of one or two other institutions, so that, by 10 o'clock all the savings banks had, by agreement, posted notice that the thirty days' rule would be enforced. The State bank continued to pay applicants small amounts, gauged by the apparent need of each corner, but, in general, there will be nothing paid over until the thirty days are up. The banks are in an uncommonly good into the street through a volley of stores and other missions, firing a few shots and, by a flank movement, marched up Front street northward to Jay, and thence to Baltimore street and Camden Station. The Fifth regiment, with 150 muskets, under command of Capt. Hallinger, left their army; center of Richmond and Market streets, about 7 p.m. and marched down Ottawa street, but nothing unusual occurred until Lochland street was reached, when the crowd which lined the streets began stoning them. This continued until the regiment got in front of Camden Station, when they turned on the crowd, charged hayonets and dispersed it. Nearly every member of the company in the course of the march was struck by the flying stones. Not a shot was fired at the depot either by the mob or the regiment, the latter having received orders not to load their muskets at the depot.
Baltimore, July 21.
As the 6th regiment, Col. Clarence Peters, was marching along Baltimore street to Cameron street, to proceed to Cumberland, the regiment was stoned and fired into by the crowd on the streets. The regiment fired into the crowd, and a number were killed and wounded. The confusion and excitement is so great at present that it is impossible to get at the facts. Four dead bodies have been taken to middle district station, and a number of wounded, six or seven in all, were conveyed to the various drug stores.
A TERRIBLE RIOT.
Fearful Destruction by a mob — The military compelled to flee.
Pittsburgh, July 23.
After the first fight between the Philadelphia militia and the mob, yesterday, the former took position in the round house where they were closely besieged. The cannon which had been captured by the mob were for a time directed against the building, but were soon recaptured by the soldiers. The building was surrounded by a mob numbering probably 20,000, all swearing that not one of the soldiers should leave the round house alive. In the meantime the destruction of property had been immense. Cars were filled with combustibles and rolled into the street through a volley of stores and other missions, firing a few shots and, by a flank movement, marched up Front street northward to Jay, and thence to Baltimore street and Camden Station. The Fifth regiment, with 150 muskets, under command of Capt. Hallinger, left their army; center of Richmond and Market streets, about 7 p.m. and marched down Ottawa street, but nothing unusual occurred until Lochland street was reached, when the crowd which lined the streets began stoning them.

The primaries in Los Angeles called forth a great deal of excitement, the fight, however, being principally confined to the friends of the various candidates for the Sheriff's and District Attorney's offices. The vote polled was nearly twice as large as at any previous primary election held in the city. The Alexander and Thom candidates are said to be slightly in the majority.
San Diego News: Los Angeles county promises the largest grape crop ever produced in this season; and already the inquiry comes up as to what they shall do with it. We are afraid our railroad will not be finished in time to send it off; but if the birds of our county (now very severe on grapes here in town) could be sent up to Los Angeles, the problem would be solved.
A much respected medical man of our town has introduced a new feature in sea bathing. He wears gum boots to keep the stingares from attacking his feet. His first attempt was not a complete success for the boots filled with water and Anaheim came very near losing one of its most eminent physicians by the undertow. We would suggest to the bathers at the landing that a cast iron suit would keep away the stingarees.
One of our juveniles amused himself yesterday by keeping a count of the men who brought into the store two old watch keys which he had thrown out, and as regularly as the finder deposited them on the counter, the youth returned them to their place in the street. In the afternoon his sport was spoiled by an individual who picked them up and, glancing around to see if he had been noticed, placed them in his pocket and walked away.
Burlington Hawkeye: His mother left him home to take care of the baby while she went out shopping. He knew there was some cherry-pie and sardines in the pantry, and if there is anything in the world that he is fond of it is sardines and cherry-pie. He sat the baby on the floor and then got up on the back of a chair and reached. He got the pie in one hand and the open box of sardines in the other, and then the baby tipped the chair over. As he was coming down to meet the baby he grabbed the knife-box. The baby evidently was not expecting him, and she hadn't fixed things to receive him. The knife box reached the baby first, and as he came down he sat on the sharp end of it. He did not stay on it long and shifted over to the baby's back. The oil from the sardine box paid the baby's nose a visit, and it was evident that sardines did not agree with little Jerusha. The juice from the pie trickled from shelf to shelf, and when mamma came home the pantry floor looked like a slaughter house on killing day. Baby is getting better slowly, and the doctor says if Johnny don't take cold he thinks he can take the stitches out of his back in about a week. It took all of the wind out of two pair of bellows to get the baby in good breathing order again, and a splinter cut of the knife-box, as big as

The run upon the State Savings Bank this morning was considerably increased. Unusual activity was also noticed at the counters of one or two other institutions, so that, by 10 o'clock all the savings banks had, by agreement, posted noticees that the thirty days' rule would be enforced. The State bank continued to pay applicants small amounts, gauged by the apparent need of each corner, but, in general, there will be nothing paid over until the thirty days are up. The banks are in an uncommonly good condition to stand a run, and only fall back upon the rule requiring thirty days' notice to be enforced merely as a means of protecting the interests of all depositors equally, and of removing all possibilities of a panic. It is the general opinion that the excitement will entirely subside in a few days.
Enforcing the Excise Law.
New York, July 20.
Policemen on beats throughout the city have been instructed to notify public-house keepers that the new excise law must be enforced hepceforth. This requires all places to be closed at 1 A.M. Considerable excitement prevails in some circles because of the shortness of time given.
Foreign News.
London, July 20.
In the House of Lords this evening Lord Stratheden read an argument on the Eastern Question. He criticised the neutrality policy of the Government as tending to demolish the influence of England both now and at the conclusion of the war. Earl Derby replied that the British Embassy at Constantinople exercised an influence which fairly belonged to a neutral and friendly power. As regarded the influence which England might exercise at the conclusion of the war he could not conceive a position in which we could interfere with mere influence or effect than at the close of the war, when both combatants were more or less exhausted, and we still remained uncommitted to any course and our forces were fresh and unbroken. The Government had previously stated what they considered to be British interests.
A Baltimore Riot.
Baltimore, July 21.
In view of the condition of affairs existing here, the Governor has revoked his order for the Fifth Regiment to proceed to Cumberland, and it will be held in readiness to aid the city authorities here.
After the Fifth Regiment had been ordered out to Camden, orders were also issued for the Sixth Regiment, Col. Clarence Peters, to assemble. Of the assault on the regiment and the firing, which resulted so fatally, he gives following account: In a few minutes after five o'clock Col. Peters received orders from General Herbert to assemble his regiment at their armory without delay. Immediately after this, Col. Peters received an order from General Herbert to send to Camden Station in charge of a senior Captain,
After the first fight between the Philadelphi militia and the mob, yesterday, the former took position in the round house where they were closely besieged. The cannon which had been captured by the mob were for a time directed against the building, but were soon recaptured by the soldiers. The building was surrounded by a mob numbering probably 20,000, all swearing that not one of the soldiers should leave the round house alive. In the meantime the destruction of property had been immense. Cars were filled with combustibles and rolled into the depot. Others were forced against the round house building, which was soon ignited, and the soldiers were now compelled to prepare to fight their way out through the frenzied mass of humanity clamoring for their blood. The building did not burn as rapidly as was desired, and the mob, bent on revenge, rushed out upon the road and started burning trains toward the deomed building. The fire companies directed their efforts to saving private property on the north side of Liberty street. In this they were mainly successful, although six dwellings and a saash factory, located near the round-houses were destroyed early in the day. When the Union Depot was fired, and this followed by the Pan Handle offices, a panic seized the citizens, who had, up to this time calmly folded their arms and looked on. At 7:45 military formed a solid column and went down Liberty street, with a Gatling gun in front, and made for the Alleghany Arsenal, where hirings soon commenced. Upon arriving at the United States Arsenal troops were refused admission. Then they continued their march and were last heard of at Alleghany Cemetery, where they were partially disorganized. The city is in a state of anarchy. Thousands who had not joined in the pursuit of the fleeing troops, gathered aboutthe burning buildings and trains and assisted in spreadingthe flames wherever they had not been applied.
The main body ofthe troops continued their march out Butler street, a fusilade being kept upon them bythe mob.As they moved forward shots were fired killing one ofthe soldiers before they reachedthe arsenal.Nearly oppositethe cemetery,fullya mile abovethe arsenal,two others were killedandleftlyingonthesidewalk Theycontinued their flightandcrossedovertothenorthsideoftheAlleghanyriverontheSharpesbourgbridge,themobfollowingasrapidlyaspossible.Afterreachingthenorthside,thetroopsscattered,andinthiswaythempbwasdividedintomallparties.

At a dinner given by the Grand Vizier, one of the Turkish Ministers complained to an English woman of the unhappiness of the Turkish woman, always shut up and always kept away from civilization. "This also makes the men unhappy," said he, "for how can a man be happy with a wife who is the most ignorant of beings, who interests herself in nothing that passes in the world, and who understands nothing? How can a country be happy with such customs? What can be more unnatural than a society without women, and how can women be expected to enjoy life who may talk to no men but those of their own families?" The Minister said that he was first married twenty years before, without having previously seen his wife, and that he became very discontented. After trying without success to improve her, he found life with her intolerable, and they separated after a year. He then bought a Circassian slave girl and married her. "She was the same sort of girl," he said, "as the Sultan's wife. She is very obedient, but that is all. There is no way of making her understand the least thing; and then she has no beauty, and is terribly thin." Thinness is an unpardonable fault in Turkish women, and is considered as good a ground for divorce as snoring or grinding the teeth in sleep.
If a loaded revolver were placed at my head and I was given one minute in which to name the most useful piece of four-legged furniture I should unhastingly answer-The Cow, and have 45 seconds to spare. In speaking of the sow I embrace also the ox and the bull. The ox is used on the farm in place of a sten engine. He is faithful as a box of pills, and somewhat slower than lightning. A man who has driven an ox team all his life is selected as pallet bearer at funnels, as he never gets ahead of the procession. The ball is chiefly celebrated for his dispersion, which is cut going and gathered in quite full. He generally wears an earring in his nose, and has a curiosity to know how you are made inside.
After the Fifth Regiment had been ordered out to Camden, orders were also issued for the Sixth Regiment, Col. Clarence Peters, to assemble. Of the assault on the regiment and the firing, which resulted so fatally, he gives the following account: In a few minutes after five o'clock Col. Peters received orders from General Herbert to assemble his regiment at their armory without delay. Immediately after this, Col. Peters received an order from General Herbert to send to Camden Station in charge of a senior Captain, without field officers, three companies of his regiment armed, equipped and supplied with ammunition. As they marched down the stairway of their armory into the street in columns of two's, Capt. Tapper at the head of his command, the foremost ranks, on reaching the sidewalk were assailed by a shower of stones and bricks, thrown by the excited crowd in front of the armory building. Front and Fayette streets, on the south side of the city, were filled for several squares with an excited multitude numbering four-or five thousand people. At the first volley of stones and brickbats six privates were felled to the ground in a senseless condition and the column turned back into the armory amid a shower of stones. Companies I and P then filed into the front streets and headed south toward Baltimore street, when they were assaulted by a crowd growing fiercer and more uncontrollable every moment. Company B not yet being out of the armory, the former companies were halted to await the latter. Col. Peters and Major George at this time went to the head of the column, endeavoring to quell the riot and restore order. The stones continued to fall thick and fast; the men without orders fired into the crowd, most of the guns being elevated above their heads. By this volley one man was killed and several wounded. Peters gave orders to cease firing, which the men obeyed. Majer George was struck with a boulder in the breast and in the right leg injuring him temporarily but not seriously. As the column then marched along Baltimore street, the stoning was kept up and firing upon the companies was commenced with stray shots, and continued at intervals until they reached Colman & Rogers' drug store, on Baltimore street. Company B marched north side, the troops scattered, and in this way the mob was divided into small parties.
By seven o'clock the fire had extended from Milvale's station to 20th street, and enveloped hundreds of cars, the extensive machine shops, two round houses, the depots and offices of the Union Transfer Company, blacksmith shops, storehouses, and numerous buildings comprising the terminal facilities of this mammoth corporation.
In the afternoon, citizens were organizing and marching to the scene of the conflict to prevent further damage, all armed with concealed weapons and heavy base-ball bats.
In the round houses there were 125 first-class locomotives which had been housed in consequence of the strike. These were totally destroyed; but even the immense loss which will be sustained in this item is a trifle to the aggregate. The scenes transpiring on Liberty street yesterday, along the line of which tracks of the railroad run, simply beggar description. While hundreds were engaged in firing cars and making certain of the destruction of valuable buildings at the outer depots, women and children were engaged in pillaging the cars. Men armed with heavy sledges would break open the cars and their contents would be thrown out and carried off by those bent on profiting by the reign of terror existing. The street was almost completely blocked by persons endeavoring to carry off plunder which they had gathered together. In hundreds of instances, wagons were pressed into service to enable the thieves to get away with their goods. Mayor McCarty, in the day, endeavored to stop the pillage, but the handful of men at his command were unable to control the crowd, who were desperate in their anxiety to secure the goods.
At 11 o'clock A.M., it became apparent that something must be done to check the mob, and a number of citizens hurriedly prepared notice calling a mass meeting of citizens at the City Hall to take measures to prevent further destruction of property. A meeting was held at noon and a large number of leading citizens responded to the call. It was decided to appoint a committee consisting of Bishop Twill, of the Catholic Church, James Parke, Jr., Dr. E. Dennelly, James J. Bennett, Dr. S.F.Scovill, Pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, to have a conference
with the rioters, while another committee was appointed to wait on the railroad authorities to maintain what course they intended to pursue or to suggest a compromise that would put an end to the disorder. The meeting then adjourned to meet again at 4 o'clock p.m. The committee who waited on the riots, failed to induce them to refrain from further destruction of property, and the railroad authorities could not be found. From the time the military fled up to three o'clock in the afternoon no effort had been made to check the riot. The mob walked very quietly, and it was a noticeable fact that few of the railroad employees were engaged in the work of destruction. Many half-grown boys were formost in the work of devastation. At 3:20 a burning car was run down the grade under the sheds surrounding the Union depot. Up to this time it was hoped that this building would escape but the mass of pine lumber used in the shredding over the tracks was soon a sea of fire. While the flames were raging here, the mob pillaged the freight depot of the B.C. & S.W.R., which was close in the vicinity. Freight received for shipment was broken open and valuable contents carried off. When all the provisions had been taken away forth was applied and soon the vast depot and the Company's general offices adjoining were a mass of flames.
A few days ago a passenger conductor on one of the railroads went to the superintendent and said he thought he ought to be advanced, having served on the freight for several years. The superintendent agreed with him, and told him that the change should be made the very next week. And it was made. The superintendent a day or two after took a seat in the rear of one of the coaches to see how the new conductor would take to business, and pretty soon the official danced in the door, cap on his skirt, sleeves pushed up, and a half-acre smile on his face.
"Get out your pasteboard!" he shouted. "I'm the high mucky muck that runs this train," and then, turning right and left, he continued:
"Right bowers this way—play lively—pass or order up—how's trumps with you—slide your right into Chicago—hurry up, there—trump this ace—what kind of a hand do you hold, old man?"
There was something novel and exhilarating in his style, but yet the superintendent called the conductor up-stairs the next day, and told him he was the best man in America to run a freight train, and that he should have to promote him backward. He was too talented for a passenger train. —Detroit Free

The Cologne Gazette publishes extracts from the diary of a woman in Constantinople, relating to affairs in that city. It is scarcely possible, she says, to conceive the distress that prevails among the Mohammedan population, nor the patriotism with which it is borne. All the able-bodied men are sent away to serve as soldiers without pay, and their wives have to support themselves and their families on two piasters a day, which is the current rate of women's wages, while the price of bread is now four piasters for three pounds. Many families used to live on the dividends of Turkish stock. These families are entirely ruined, and others, although not absolutely destitute, have suffered immense losses. There are in Constantinople 25,000 officials, most of them with families, and they have not received any pay since the beginning of the war, not even in paper money, on which there is a loss of eighty per cent.
In a meeting of the Massachusetts Dental Society, Dr. G. F. Waters described and tested a very simple and easy remedy for burns and scalds, consisting in simply covering the affected part with the common carbonate of soda—the ordinary soda used in cooking—and then overlaying a wet cloth. The severe pain is immediately relieved, and the burn rapidly heals. Dr. Waters poured boiling hot water on one of his wristes, and then he applied the soda and the wet cloth.
Foreign papers believe that Europe can take 2,000,000 head of cattle from the United States every year, the limit of cattle rearing having been reached in many parts of Europe. The impression abroad is that Americans are not acting with reference to the export of beef as vigorously as they might.
The Salem Record predicts that the Government census of 1880 will show a population in Oregon of 200,000. Last year the vote of the State was 30,000 which, at the usual ratio, would indicate a population of 150,000.
