The market is now plentifully stocked with grapes of every variety. It is said that Ah Lang was among the audience at Kronger's Hall on Friday evening. Phaney his phalinka! Mr. S.L.King of Garden Grove, brought a watermelon to town yesterday which weighed fifty-two pounds. A contemporary refers to "the intellectual countenance of Ann Ellis." Ain't there some mistake about this? From Mr.Montgomery we learn that there was a private picnic party at Santiago Canyon, yesterday. A man named Lynch, an employee of the Southern Pacific Railroad, died from the effects of the heat on Wednesday at Flowing Walla. Rev.J.M.Allis, formerly of Anaheim, but now pastor of the Larkin Street Church, San Francisco, is delivering a course of lectures on Christian Evidences. Mr.Harroll Chambers, of Orange, who was injured in Anaheim by being thrown from his wagon, on the 4th inst., died at Orange on Saturday morning last, and was buried here the same day!—Santa Ana News. We learn that Gen.Volney E.Howard, an honest, able and uncompromising Democrat, has consented to deliver an address to the people of the county against the railroad candidates, Smith and Hewitt. One of the oldest and most respectable Democrats in the city yesterday informed us that Colonel John O.Wheeler was the best Clerk the County ever had. And yet Colonel Wheeler has the modesty not to announce this fact from the restrum. There are strange contrasts in this world.—Republican. An item was inadvertantly left out of yesterday's paper, stating that arguments had been heard in the case wherein the Cajon Irrigating Co.is plaintiff and the Canyon de Santa Ana Water Co.de defendant, and that the District Judge had taken taken the case Kleinigkeiten. [FROM SATURDAY'S DAILY.] The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 5 bdls pelts, 1 bille dry hides, 17 bille dry hides, 1 box butter, 1 keg wine, 1 sewing machine, 1 bble sheep pelts. Mr. H. W. Lake, of Santa Ana, has bought the stock of Paul, the furniture dealer. Mr. Lake has built up a prosperous business; in fact, he is fast absorbing the entire paying trade of the Santa Ana section. His patrons get the worth of their money. That's the secret of his success. There will be praise meeting held at the Presbyterian Church to morrow evening, to which all are very cordially invited. At these meetings the exercises consist entirely of singing—Moody and Sankey's collection of hymns being used. The presence of the young and old is requited, and it is expected that they will join in the exercises and help swell the refrain. Republican: We admit that Mr. H. D. Barrows would probably feel out of place in a Democratic Senate, (what honest man would not!) surrounded by shrewd and tricky politicians. But in an honest Republican legislative body, Mr. Barrows would prove a valuable representative of this section, for, as the Express says, One of the oldest and most respectable Democrats in the city yesterday informed us that Colonel John O. Wheeler was the best Clerk the County ever had. And yet Colonel Wheeler has the modesty not to announce this fact from the restrum. There are strange contrasts in this world. —Republican. An item was inadvertently left out of yesterday's paper, stating that arguments had been heard in the case wherein the Cajon Irrigating Co. is plaintiff and the Canyon de Santa Ana Water Co., defendant, and that the District Judge had taken taken the case under advisement. Thirteen citizens of Los Nistos voted for Peter Cooper for President, and one of the thirteen writes to a Los Angeles paper that they propose to stand by their organization (Greenback Club) until they elect a President who is in accord with them. We admire the spirit of the noble thirteen, but profess no admiration for their discretion. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: Reiser's Brewery, 3 beer kegs; T C Hull, 7 bales salt; J J Dyer, 5 boxes soda water; H A Stough, 2 planks; Cahen & Willard, 2 cases dry goods; P Davis & Bro, 1 bale wool twine; Caroy & Son, 1 butter box; R Goldsmith, 1 cloth pkg; P William, 1 butter box. A letter from Garden Grove to the Los Angeles Star says: We are glad the Star is supporting Mr. Hilton. Nearly every voter in this section will vote and work for him. He is our candidate. All the parties who knew him when he lived in Vallojo are supporting him, and the most of these are Democrats. If this portion of the county does not support him they should never have an opportunity to support any one. [FROM TUESDAY'S DAILY.] Mrs. Theo. Reiser left yesterday morning for a short visit to San Francisco. Mr. B. Dreyfus is expected to arrive from San Francisco this evening. The Anaheim Brass Band enlivened the proceedings of the Republican meeting at Santa Ana last night. The co-partnership heretofore existing between the Miles Bros. has been dissolved. Ed will carry on the business. Moye Wicks, of Santa Ana, has been elected to fill the vacancy in the Democratic County Committee, caused by the resignation of W. D. Morton. It is said that Asa Ellis, being sound on the squirrel question, everybody should gopher him. Everybody is going for him, but in a way which he will despise. M. Calisher arrived on the train last evening. He will remain here for a few days and then proceed to San Francisco to purchase a stock of goods for his Arizona store. Those who have not paid the assessment levied by the Anaheim Water Company... Republican: We admit that Mr. H. D. Barrows would probably feel out of place in a Democratic Senate, (what honest man would not!) surrounded by shrewd and tricky politicians. But in an honest Republican legislative body, Mr. Barrows would prove a valuable representative of this section, for, as the Express says, "He possesses the most eminent qualities for the position, and will prove a very efficient and reliable legislator." In another column will be found an advertisement offering a reward for the arrest and conviction of the authors of the anonymous communication published by a contemporary, in which employers of Chinamen in this vicinity were threatened with vengeance. It is probable that the authors of the missive had no other intention than to create a "little breeze." If such should transpire to be the case they should be punished more for their lack of sense than for the criminal character of their offense. Freight for the following persons was received at the depot last night: W.E. Taylor, 1 case powder; A Langenberger, 1 case powder; Dryfus & Co., 1 copper still; W.McFadden, 2 scrapers; Lockhart Bros., 50 joints well pipe; J Kearney, 1 butter box; M A Mendelson, 1 case dry goods; A L, 5 pkgs mdse; H W Lake, 17 pkgs mdse; C & W, 2 cases cases coil oil; WE Talor, 3 cases coal oil; J Willy, 10 pkgs fruit; B Dryfus & Co., 15 pkgs mdse; C Mosamann, 4 pkgs mdse; Heimann & Sorenson, 1 apple parer. A disease has broken out among the cattle in Westminster and Bolsa Chica, causing great alarm among the dairymen and stockraisers. It assumes the form of a bloody murrain, and thus far all efforts to check it have proved futile. Thomas Edwards has lost twelve cows; Samson Edwards, nine; Henry Rodgers, six; Kearney & Haley, four. The distemper has also appeared in the herds of Carey & Sons and the large band of John Mayers, in Bolsa Chica. In the Willows and near the Meas, large numbers have died and others are sick. Farmers generally attribute the sickness to salt grass and alkali water. It is said that Ass Ellis, being sound on the squirrel question, everybody should gopher him. Everybody is going for him, but in a way which he will despise. M. Calisher arrived on the train last evening. He will remain here for a few days and then proceed to San Francisco to purchase a stock of goods for his Arizona store. Those who have not paid the assessment levied by the Anaheim Water Company should remember that unless the same is paid by the 3d of September, it will be sold, according to law. We call attention to the fact that the Firemen's Picnic will be given on Sunday next. The Committee are making necessary arrangements for the amusement of the expected crowd. Constable Smith of San Joaquin was in town yesterday for the purpose of arresting the Chinaman who done the shooting at Raine's hop-yard on Saturday. The Mongol could not be found. Mr. Fischer yesterday received advices from John P. Zeyn. His friends will be glad to learn that he is improving very rapidly—in fact, he commenced to improve while yet on the journey from here to San Francisco. At the Republican meeting at Westminster, on Saturday, Judge Brunson charged that the Democratic Convention was manipulated by the railroad corporation, through an agent sent for the purpose from San Francisco. The Town Board of Equalization yesterday fixed the tax levy at eighty cents on the one hundred dollars. The only changes made by the Board in the assessment, as returned by Mr. Blanken, were to increase the amount of taxable property in six cases. The revenue from taxes will amount to about $2,300. By taking a war map, and running your finger east from Plevna until you intersect Los Angeles street at its north end, and following along the left bank of the Blue Danube until the parapets of the Planters' Hotel is reached, you will find a redoubt there marked "Daddy & Lewis stable." Grim visaged was reached this locality yesterday. A couple of Bathi-Bazonk employees had a difference wid data, and one was placed (as a stableman would say) horse du combat; and the other was taken in charge of by a battalion of patrol and taken before Justice Bailey. Five dollars and a quarter was the price charged for the little diversion. On Thursday last Virgil D. Smith, a son of Charles Smith, of Garden Grove, met with an accident which ended fatally. It seems that the lad, who had been staying at Mr. Bancroft's for some time, started on horse-back to mail a letter to his mother, who is visiting some friends in the upper part of the State. He was accompanied by two of his cousins, sons of W. J. Smith, of Orangethorpe. While near Mr. Mead's residence, the horse Virgil was riding stumbled and foiled on his rider. He was picked up in an unconscious condition, and so remained until his death, which occurred on Sunday morning at 4 o'clock. The funeral took place yesterday. The victim of this accident was about thirteen years of age, and is described as having been a remarkably bright, precocious boy, an apt scholar, and an extremely active member of the Orangethorpe Sunday School. The parents have the warm sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement. Freight shipped from depot this morning: Three cases eggs, 6 bxs bottles, 1 beer keg, 44 sks peas, 84 sks beans, 9 bds pelts, 6 bbls tallow, 1 casting, 20 sks potatoes. We have received from Messara Sherman & Hyde, publishers, Kearney and Sutter St., San Francisco, a new song and dance entitled "She's Just a Sweet Bouquet," music by Charles E. Pratt. This is one of the most popular songs lately issued, and is being sung by Mlle Aimee in the principal cities of the Union. It is sold for the moderate sum of 35 cents.

To-morrow the masters will give notice to terminate all contracts. The Turks Gaining Ground. LONDON, Aug. 17. The Russians evacuated Elena and Belorora, and nearly all the country up to Tirnoor. Sulieman Pasha's advance guard is close to Gubrova. He has received heavy reinforcements from Constantinople. The Czar has joined the Grand Duke Nicholas at Gorny. The Colorade Beetle. FRANKFORT, Aug. 17. The Colorado beetle, despite the energetic attempts to stamp it out, has spread over twenty-five acres at Langenreicherburg, near Torgan, Germany. War News. LONDON, Aug. 17. The Russians officially acknowledge the loss of 14,450 killed and wounded up to August 9th. The Turkish massacres awaken a horror and indignation among all classes which it is difficult to describe. A Seige Raised. LONDON, Aug. 17.

The Bennington Celebration. BENNINGTON, Vt., August 17. The Centennial procession moved yesterday at the appointed hour, and was over four miles long. The principal feature of the parade was the President and the accompanying members of the Cabinet. The reception in Vermont and the ride on the procession partook of a triumphant nature after the review. The exercises of the day commenced with prayer, after which an address of welcome was delivered by President Bartlett. An oration followed, and Wm. Cullen Bryant's poem was read. The President was then loudly called for, and delivered a short complimentary address. Secretaries Evarts and Key and Attorney-General Devens each said a few words, at the conclusion of which a banquet was served. The President of the Centennial Commission then gave as the first Centennial toast appropriate to the occasion, health and long life to Rutherford B. Hayes, President of the United States. The President responded in a few appropriate words. LONDON, Aug. 17. The Russians officially acknowledge the loss of 14,450 killed and wounded up to August 9th. The Turkish massacres awaken a horror and indignation among all classes which it is difficult to describe. A Seige Raised. LONDON, Aug. 17. The Prince of Montenegro has been obliged to raise the siege of Nicico to march against the Turkish troops who are endeavoring to enter Montenegro. Railroad Accident. PLEASANTON, August 18. Last night freight train number nine, going cast of Livermore, broke a coupling, and two cars and a caboose started back down the grade. The cars passed through Livermore, and collided with freight train number five, which was also going east, two miles east of Pleasanton, at about half past ten o'clock. The conductor of the broken train was asleep in his caboose, and two of his brakemen had gone to see a dance in Livermore while the train had stopped there, and the train had gone and left them. When they saw the returning broken train and knew that a collision would take place, they left for parts unknown. "A fire resulted from the collision, and the caboose and one or two cars were burned. The forward brakesman of the east-bound train was thrown under the cars and injured. The Nez Perces. SALT LAKE, August 18. Nothing has been heard of the Nez Perces Indians since they crossed the Montana stage road, going east, on the 16th, 35 miles south from the Pleasant Valley station. The telegraph is broke, no doubt cut by the Indians. No stages are running on that section of the road where the Indians crossed. Nothing further has been heard from Gen. Howard. Thirty-five Shoshone Indians left their agency this morning to assist Gen. Howard. Singular Action of a Spanish Vessel BOSTON, Aug. 18. A letter received from the Captain of the schooner Edward Lee of Provincetown dated March, gives the following facts: While crusing off the southeast coast of Cuba the lookout reported a vessel close into land changing her course and coming towards us. When within range the vessel showing the Spanish flag without any warning whatever, sent up a cloud of smoke, followed by a report, and then there was an explosion of a shell just clear of us astern, which was followed by another of grape shot. We immediately crowded on all sail and showed the sailing qualities of our vessel, the Spaniard keeping up a running fire of shot. Chase was kept up for some time but was finally abandoned. We then sought other whaling grounds. Distributing the Coin. NEW YORK, Aug. 18. Isaac P. Chambers, general auditor of the 200 persons were killed. A Russian recoonerating party has been near the Lowa. Change of Commanders St. Petersburg, August 18. Gen. Milikoff, the Russian Commander, has been removed, and Gen. Menshy has been appointed to succeed him. A Cheerless Prospect. LONDON, Aug. 20. The Times' Culeutta correspondent telegraphs that the prospects for an autumn crop may be regarded as hopeless. In Southern India they are most critical, as also in western, central and northern India; they are fairly good in Eastern India. London, Aug. 20. A correspondent of the Daily News at Stadem, the headquarters of the Grand Duke Nicholas, referring to the dispatch in regard to the 4th division on an independent expedition for the purpose of stopping Turkish communication with Sophia, by blockading Chordlik Pass, telegraphs as follows. "This should have been done earlier, but if successful now it will still have good results. In the event of a crushing Turkish defeat at Plevna, it would go far to make it another Sedan. The expedition is obviously hazardous." A correspondent says he understands that Servian intervention is now certain. He thinks that the activity of the Turks at Plevna, in sending out reconnaissance seems as if they have some intention of taking the offensive. A newspaper says: "The stories of Secretary Sherman's wealth are said to be greatly exaggerated. His estate in Mansfield, Ohio, which has been estimated to be worth from $500,000 to $1,000,000, would not sell for $50,000. In the opinion of some of his most intimate friends he is worth less than $200,-000." Poor fellow! REPUBLICAN Meetings! IN Los Angeles County WILL BE HELD AS FOLLOWS: NORWALK...

The Sun’s Hartford special says the Charter Oak Life Insurance Co., has raised one hundred thousand dollars from the Connecticut Life Insurance Mutual Co., by mortgaging its property in Cincinnati, St. Louis, Chicago and Toledo. The Crops of India. London, Aug. 17. A dispatch from the Viceroy of India says the general improvement in crop prospects in Madras, Mysove, Bombay and the north east were maintained the past week. Rain is still much needed in Punjab, Ragportana and the western part of the northwest provinces. The price of grain continues exceedingly high throughout the famine district, but in Madras it is slightly easier than the week preceding, and still lower in every part of the presidency than in the worst parts of Bombay and Mysove. The question of grain stocks and supplies continue to gauge anxiety. The grain trade at Calcutta is exceedingly active. Ninety thousand tons of shipping are engaged. The condition of Mysove continues critical. The Governor of Bengal telegraphs concerning the condition of Bombay, that the prices of grain are easier but still very high. The improvement in the situation is retarded by want of a general rain, the difficulty in Bombay, aggravated by the states of Madras and Nizin, and by the inability of the railway to bring forward grain sufficient for the great demand in Mysove. The laborers on the works are decreasing and charitably-reliaved are increasing. In Bombay, the reverse is occurring, but there is a slight general increase in the totals received in Madras. There are as many as 963,000 Distributing the Coin. New York, Aug. 18. Isaac P. Chambers, general auditor of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad, has just completed the apportionment of one hundred thousand dollars given by Vanderbilt to the employees of the road. Of 11,000 men on the rolls 8,904 will get portions of the gift. Passenger conductors receive $20; baggagemen, $10; brakemen, $9; freight conductors, $15; engineer, $30; firemen, $15; flagmen, $8; switchmen, $9; laborers and watchmen, $7; mechanics, $14; foremen, $16; track foremen, $11; all others $9. Address by the Ohio Workingmen. Columbus, August 18. The Ohio Committee of the Workingmen’s Industrial Union has issued an address setting forth a platform of principles, and recommending that conventions be held in the several counties, to nominate county officers and establish Industrial Union Clubs in every township and voting precinct, and that they select one delegate to a State Convention to be held in this city on September 13th to adopt a platform and nominate State officers. Arrest of Noted Forgers. Chicago, Aug. 18. On Thursday evening detectives from New York arrested three forgers and placed them in rooms at the Grand Pacific Hotel in this city, pending further investigation. It appears that the three men are members of a gang of forgers whose operations have been conducted on a magnificent scale, and extended to all parts of the country. They are said to have realized $440,000 within the last year. Two of the gang have operated in Burlington, Iowa, very successfully; another party in Minnesota, a fifth one in St. Louis, and a sixth one at Indianapolis. Last night one of the gang known as Col. Cross was arrested in St. Louis. The Indianapolis party... Democratic Ticket. ELECTION, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5th, 1877. State Senator...GEORGE H.
