ADVERTISE IN THE SEMI-WEEKLY GAZETTE. — A committee of the Anaheim Water Co. was appointed on last Saturday to ascertain the best point from which to take water from the Cajon Irrigating Company's ditch. They will report on this and other matters on next Saturday, at which time it is supposed that some agreement between the two companies will be formally entered into. — The Directors of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company have issued an order directing the Superintendent to banish all liquors from the camps on the canal. The cause for the issuing of this order arose from a too free use of liquor by certain parties, tending to the disturbance of the harmony of the camp and a hindrance to the progress of the work. — Upon the expiration of the lease now held by P. Davis & Bro. of the Anaheim Water Company's lots on the corner of Centre and Los Angeles streets, that firm intend to tear down the building now occupied by them as a store, and will use the lumber for the erection of stables, etc., in the rear of their new brick building. Their two-story warehouse they will remove to a location opposite A. Guy Smith & Co.'s lumber yard,and will use it as a store house. — There seems to be no end to the wealth of the Santa Ana Valley and the neighboring foot-hills. We have just been shown by a Mr. Joe. Hoagee a sample of very rich silver rock from the Santiago Canyon and he assures us that the rock he has found will assay $5000 to the ton. He is confident that he has discovered a very rich vein of silver, and bases his knowledge on several years' mining in different silver mines. We hope both the newly discovered coal and silver mines of the Santiago prove as rich as their owners predict. — Santa Ana News. — Mr. Charles E. Judd, who has just returned from his trip to the country districts, has obtained some twelve hundred signatures to the petition to Congress to grant aid for the building of a competing transcontinental railway. He has also received, since his return, five additional sheets which are covered with signatures to the same purport. As a faithful chronicler of events, it is impossible for us to dispute that a profound distrust pervades this community as to the designs of the Southern Pacific Railway. — Harold. Now I wish it to be united not profess to be a prophet show that my prediction guess work. One reason expect a wet winter is that cal wet and dry seasons, seven years for each—the ter—and as we have had there is no reason why we the usual wet winter. Another reason why I later is that there are indicative dry Winter that precedes its indication. The indicative term are that, during the Summer there are heavy dry winds west all Summer, blowing of the atmosphere away, dews or fogs. These dry Summer are a sure indicator On the contrary, the Sun rainy Winter are character mosphere, heavy dews of night when there are any fogs and as this Summer has been and moist, I confidently extend to have a rainy Winter. stated are, I think, as well other modes of philosophy jects.

The way to bud is to place an inch above the bud, and slice an inch or more through wood,(including the bud), scalp off just such a place on the bud on with a rag one-wide, just as you would tie and your work is done. Lay out of the bandage. This new English method twenties is universally practiced by deniers throughout the world two by this plan in the same way you to bud one by the old size and then if your bud does not damage is done to your stock will heal in twenty days; a more certain to take for the outer bark to outer bark in bark, and wood to wood. The French Government eration a grand project for the wonderfully fertile meents by means of the water. A letter was mailed at the N.Y.Post Office, recently feet eleven inches long and wide. It took sixty cents tha The town has for some days past been pretty thoroughly "worked" by a band of tramps. These gentry have established their headquarters at a house near the depot, owned by Mr. Heimann. They have furnished it elaborately with hay, stolen from Mr. Paty, and we may here remark that this is the only depredation we have heard of them committing. The most of them are tolerably well-dressed, and have a healthy, satisfied look about them, which betokens their digestion to be good, and that our climate agrees with them. They are a trile fastidious in regard to the viands upon which they feed. In fact, there is one well-authenticated story alloat to the effect that an offer of unlimited bread and cheese was contemptiously spurned. Whenever one is treated with a particularly good meal the kind-hearted donor is overwhelmed with applicants for a similar favor. Let us hope that their Thanksgiving will be passed in some place where turkeys are fatter and cranberries cost less than a dollar a gallon. The relatives and friends of Mr. Thad. Travis are now in considerable perturbation of mind in regard to his fate, as a rumor reached here on Monday that he had been killed. It is said that Travis sold his sheep in New Mexico for $1400, and that he gave part of this money to a companion to carry. They started to return home, but this companion of Thad's managed to slip off with the money which he carried. Thad started in piratit, and upon coming up with the robber a fight ensued, in which the pursuer was killed. Such is the substance of the rumor, but what degree of credence it is entitled to we are Another View of the Matter. [From the San Francisco Alta.] At frequent intervals there is an agitation in the city of Los Angeles for a division of the State, and last week the old sore broke out afresh in the Express. Judge Widney has addressed a long communication to that journal, arguing that the State should be divided, for the reasons that the Southern end has peculiar industries; that inquiries relating to corporations, the influence of its representatives is lost on the representation of the State at large; that it cannot now obtain enough appropriations for its harbors; that its distance from Sacramento makes State business expensive and slow under the present arrangement; and that a separate State Government would be more honest and economical, would give "us" a better chance of securing the real terminus of the Southern transcontinental railroads, and would attract immigration. These reasons are largely drawn from the imagination." The claim that the officials elected by Southern California would be more honest and economical than those selected by the northern and middle regions of the State, verges on the absurd. As for the terminus of the Southern Transcontinental Railroad, Los Angeles has no right to complain. The place that has been defeated is San Diego, which would doubtless much rather trust to San Francisco than to Los Angeles for fair treatment. It is worthy to remark that San Diego, Ventura and Santa Barbara—all of which Los Angeles would like to include under its jurisdiction—do not demand a division of the State, and we imagine that they would oppose it. The agitation in Los Angeles may be attributed mainly to the confident expectation that in case of a division, their city would be made the seat of the new State Government. That is not included in the reasons given by Judge Widney, and we must attribute its omission not to inadvertence, but to a fear that a statement of it Pointing to the Pole. There are those who believe that no man can sleep in a satisfactory way unless the head of his bed is turned to the north. Whether this rule applies to women is doubtful, since the alleged proneness of the sex to sleep in a circular position, after the plan in vogue among the better class of rats, renders it always difficult to decide toward which point of the compass the sleeping feminine's head actually points. Man, on the contrary, is accustomed to sleep in a straight line. This system has its faults as well as its merits. While the man who sleeps quietly on his side in a line with the major axis of his bedstead is worthy of all praise, there are those who are habitually diagonal, and insist upon extending themselves from one corner of the bed to another, thereby exhibiting a selfish disregard of the rights and comforts of others. As to the man who lies on his back and snore, he furnishes a convincing argument for the existence of a future state where facilities exist for doing full justice to criminals of his atrocious class. As a rule, however, a sleeping man's head points in general direction of the head of his bedstead, and hence it becomes important that the latter should be placed in the best possible position. That wonderful law of nature which provides that the top of a map should always be north, probably first suggested to some scientific person the propriety of making the head of a bedstead point to the north pole. This rule, however, is ostensibly based upon the belief that the current of earthly magnetism constantly flows toward the magnetic pole. Now, if a sleeping man's head is turned toward the north, the magnetic current will enter his feet—unless, of course, he is a Western Democratic stateman and sleeps in his boots—and gently smoothing his nerves, as one would smooth a cat, will pass out at his head. If, on the contrary, he sleeps with Travis is now in considerable perturbation of mind in regard to his fate, as a rumor reached here on Monday that he had been killed. It is said that Travis sold his sheep in New Mexico for $1400, and that he gave part of this money to a companion to carry. They started to return home, but this companion of Thad’s managed to slip off with the money which he carried. Thad started in piratism, and upon coming up with the robber a fight ensued, in which the pursuer was killed. Such is the substance of the runor, but what degree of credence it is entitled to we are unable to state. It is said that the family have positive knowledge that Thad was in Prescott on the 10th of the present month, and as the murder is said to have been committed a few days after at a point some two hundred miles distant, they are not inclined to put much faith in the story. Mr. D. R. Payne, Secretary of the Anaheim Fire Department, has received from Los Angeles a number of complimentary tickets to a Grand Dramatic Entertainment and Ball to be given in Los Angeles on Saturday evening, December 1st, for the benefit of Thirty-sight’s Engine Company of Los Angeles. Any member of the Department who may desire to attend this entertainment can procure a ticket by application to Mr Payne. The stockholders in the Anaheim Lighter Company held a meeting on Monday. Proposals to lease the wharves and lighters of the Company were made by some parties at Westminster, and their proposition was favorably entertained. The necessary inventory of stock and other preliminaries are now being made, and at a meeting on Friday the bargain will probably be consummated. In the trial of F. M. Cahill, for murder, before the District Court at Los Angeles on Monday, the jury failed to agree. The prisoner was admitted to bail in the sum of one thousand dollars. Mr. E. F. Cahill and John Adams are the bondsmen. The jury stood eight for conviction and four for acquittal. A Wet Winter. Mr. J. W. Potts, of Los Angeles, predicts a wet winter, and communicates to the Herald his reasons for so thinking. He says: I have stated that about the first quarter of the moon in December the regular winter rains would setin, and that before quit raining after that time we should hear as many people grumbling about too much rain as we now hear croaking around saying there is going to be another dry season. Now I wish it to be understood that I do not profess to be a prophet but I propose to show that my predictions are not entirely guess work. One reason why I confidently expect a wet winter is that we have periodical wet and dry seasons, varying from five to seven years for each—the dry and wet winter—and as we have had the dry winter there is no reason why we should not have the usual wet winter. Another reason why I expect a rainy Winter is that there are indications of a wet or dry Winter that precede those seasons, respectively. The indications for a dry Win. It is worthy to remark that San Diego, Ventura and Santa Barbara—all of which Los Angeles would like to include under its jurisdiction—do not demand a division of the State, and we imagine that they would oppose it. The agitation in Los Angeles may be attributed mainly to the confident expectation that in case of a division, their city would be made the seat of the new State Government. That is not included in the reasons given by Judge Widney, and we must attribute its omission not to inadvertence, but to a fear that a statement of it would not gain favor for the division in other counties. The dissimilarity of industries between the south and the middle of the State is slight. Among all Judge Widney’s arguments we do not find one entitled to much weight. As for the objections, he takes no account of them. First and most important of these is the lack of population. Southern California, south of latitude 35°, has not enough inhabitants to entitle it to a member of Congress. After it shall have 200,000 people, and after San Diego, Santa Barbara, Ventura and San Bernardino have expressed a desire for a separate State Government, it appears to us that the middle and north of the State might consent. California, as it is now, reaching from latitude 32° to 42°, on the Pacific, has only two members in the United States Senate; whereas the same ten degrees on the Atlantic Coast have eleven States, from Massachusetts to South Carolina inclusive, and twenty-two Federal Senators. At present, there is no serious injustice in this apportionment, because our population is relatively very sparse. Indeed, we have a little more than our share, for the average population for a Senator is 600,000, and in California less than 450,000. We expect, however, that before the close of the century, California will have 5,000,000 and we regard as a possibility even 10,000,000 inhabitants, and then there will be strong reasons for a division. At present, the scheme will meet with objections at San Diego, at Sacramento, at Washington, and probably even among the farmers of Los Angeles county, who would dislike to be overburdened by taxation. Los Angeles will not injure her cause by waiting patiently for a few years. A Senatorial Fraud. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.—In the present critical state of affairs in the Senate, caused by the defection of Patterson and Conover, much indignation is expressed by Republicans at the absence of Senator Sharon of Nevada, and numerous dispatches have been sent to San Francisco, requesting his attendance here, but without avail, and a telegram received from him yesterday by George C. Gorham, Secretary of the Senate, makes it extremely improbable that he will be present during the impending struggle for supremacy in the Senate. The telegram was private, and some inaccuracies may exist in the following version, which is, however, believed to be substantially correct: George C. Gorham, Senate Chamber: I have three hundred tons of silver bricks waiting for the passage of the silver bill, and I am engineering movements in Ophir stock. The Senate may go to h-1. Sharon. The reporter of a San Francisco paper interviewed Sharon regarding his design. He says: The Senator has received dispatches from place that has been defeated is San Diego, Ventura and Santa Barbara—all of which Los Angeles would like to include under its jurisdiction—do not demand a division of the State, and we imagine that they would oppose it. The agitation in Los Angeles may be attributed mainly to the confident expectation that in case of a division, their city would be made the seat of the new State Government.

The dissimilarity of industries between the south and the middle of the State is slight.Andrew Widney's arguments we do not find one entitled to much weight.As for the objections,他 takes no account of them.First and most important of these is the lack of population.Southern California,south of latitude 35°,has not enough inhabitants to entitle it to a member of Congress.After it shall have 200,000 people,and after San Diego,Santa Barbara,Ventura和San Bernardino have expressed a desire for a separate State Government,它 appears to us thatthe middle和 northoftheState might consent.

Now I wish it to be understood that I do not profess to be a prophet but I propose to show that my predictions are not entirely guess work. One reason why I confidently expect a wet winter is that we have periodical wet and dry seasons, varying from five to seven years for each—the dry and wet winter—and as we have had the dry winter there is no reason why we should not have the usual wet winter. Another reason why I expect a rainy Winter is that there are indications of a wet or dry Winter that precede those seasons, respectively. The indications for a dry Winter are that, during the Summer preceding it, there are heavy dry winds blowing from the west all Summer, blowing all the moisture of the atmosphere away, with little or no dews or fogs. These dry winds during the Summer are a sure indication of a dry year. On the contrary, the Summer preceding a rainy Winter are characterized by damp atmosphere, heavy dew of nights, and wet fogs when there are any fogs and very little wind, and as this Summer has been unusually calm and moist, I confidently expect that we are to have a rainy Winter. The reasons above stated are, I think, as well founded as many other modes of philosophy on various subjects. New System of Budding. B. F. Dunkley, in the Rural World, gives a new manner of budding, which may interest our orchardists and nurserymen: The way to bud is to place your knife half an inch above the bud, and then scalp off a slice an inch or more through the bark and wood, (including the bud, of course); then scalp off just such a place on the stock; tie the bud on with a rag one-fourth of an inch wide, just as you would tie up a cut finger, and your work is done. Leave the bud out of the bandage. This was called the new English method twenty years ago. It is universally practiced by intelligent gardeners throughout the world. You can bud two by this plan in the same time it takes you to bud one by the old and clumsy way; and then if your bud does not take very little damage is done to your stock. The wound will heal in twenty days, and the bulbs are more certain to take, for this plan brings the outer bark to outer bark, inner bark to inner bark, and wood to wood. The French Government has under consideration a grand project for the irrigation of the wonderfully fertile southeast departments by means of the waters of the Rhone. A letter was mailed at the Hornellaville, N.Y. Post Office, recently, that was three feet eleven inches long and eighteen inches wide. It took sixty cents to pay the postage. By George C. Gorham, Secretary of the Senate, makes it extremely improbable that he will be present during the impending struggle for supremacy in the Senate. The telegram was private, and some inaccuracies may exist in the following version, which is, however, believed to be substantially correct: George C. Gorham, Senate Chamber: I have three hundred tons of silver bricks waiting for the passage of the silver bill, and I am engineering movements in Ophir stock. The Senate may go to h-l. SHARON. The reporter of a San Francisco paper interviewed Sharon regarding his designs. He says: The Senator has received dispatches from different sources, urging him to hasten to his post to save the fall of the Republican Senate, now so seriously threatened by the intrigues of the Democracy. He refuses peremptorily to go to Washington during the present session of Congress, giving an excuse that his important business interests will not permit him to leave the city. If his Republican friends desire him to resign he will readily accede, but as his resignation would only leave a vacancy for the Democratic Governor of Nevada to fill, it is probable that he will be solicited to that end. The Senator expects to reach Washington the latter part of December. Dispatches received several days ago from Senators Blaine and Jones intimated that it was probable that two of the Southern Republicans had gone over to the Democracy. Senator Sharon was rather inclined to reticence, and was about as communicative on his political points as on the developments in Ophir. Dumb-bell Lifting. At the Alambra, last evening, the dumb-bell match drew a crowd of the lovers of muscular science. The match was between Earl Brannan of Eureka and ten athletes of this city for $250 a side. When five of the ten men had finished lifting, Brannan stopped forward and said he was willing to commence lifting, admitting that the second five would do as well as the first five. This was readily agreed to by his opponents, as the only professional athlete in the whole hot list in the first five. The score of the first five was as follows: Johnson, 405; Skinner, 50; Gumble, 180; Smith, 50; and Coffey, 110—total, 795. This, doubled (1590), was the score against which Brannan was to lift. At the word "ready," he picked up the bell weighing 164 pounds, and put it up at full arm's length with a quick, easy motion. Without the slightest apparent effort he repeated this 1,000 times, winning the match with nine points to spare. At the finish he offered to lift against any ten men in Virginia City for $2,000 a side. It was the generally expressed opinion of those present, that with Brannan the number of "puts" he is capable of with a 163-pound dumb-bell is only a question of going to sleep — Virginia City Chronicle. In the obituary of an eminent physician of New York city who died on the 13th inst., we find the following paragraph: Dr. Paine was a believer in Christianity, and liked the Episcopal form of worship. His originality of mind is well illustrated by his ideas on the subject of communion. He thought that the Last Supper was not intended to be a general observance. He argued that there were many Christians besides the twelve at that time who did not participate in the breaking of bread, and that the Bible nowhere made the ceremony general. Dr. Paine, therefore, always abstained from participation in the communion, and no argument could ever shake his belief in this matter. A Nevada paper gives its town this first-class recommendation: Our town is full of loafers, bummers, sneak thieves and others of that ilk. Reno is getting to be recognized as the resort for all the murderers, villains, robbers, etc., around the country.

Of the 4150 miles, 3274, or more than three-fourths, are under the control of the man who composes the Central Pacific Railroad Company; but the only portion of their road that yields much profit is the main Central Pacific line, between Ogden and San Francisco, 883 miles, or about one-fourth of their iron tracks, and a portion of this distance, between Oakland and Sacramento, is soon to be superceded for much of the traffic by a new route through Benicia. The narrow-gauge railroads of California, builds for general traffic, have an aggregate length of 207 miles, mostly in Marin, Sonoma, Santa Cruz and Monterey counties. The general impression among railroad men is that ther is more profit in the broad gunge. Beside the line of the Central Pacific, Novalia has 163 miles of railroad and Utah has 198. California has 100 miles of private railroad, "used only for the transportation of coal," logs, lumber and wood; to use the language of the November Statisticia, which gives a list of 10 such roads, most of them built to supply saw-mills with legs. The Sierra Flume and Lumber Company has 32 miles of road in Shasta, Tehama and Butte counties. Most of these private roads do not reach any point where there is a public railroad, and not one of them makes a connection with a public road. Most of the railroads are connected together, so that even where the cars do not run through, the timetables for passenger trains are in harmony. The N. P. C. Railroad (Narrow-gauge in Marin and Sonoma), and the S. F. N. P. Railroad (in Petaluma and Russian Valleys) have occupied solitary positions, but most NEWS IN BRIEF. Denton, Texas, has a desperado of African descent named Joe Faust, whom tactics are rather peculiar. Cocking a pistol on a divine he made him get down on his hands and feet, bleak like a sheep, and compelled him to butt an oak tree until he made the scorns fall. Senator Anthony, of Rhode Island, has introduced a bill "to allow Commodore E. O. Matthews, of the United States Navy, to accept a silver tea-pot from the Emperor of Siam." The German Government has authorized the use of a double postal card. It has two stamps, and will go to a man, got an answer, and come back to the original sender. A Harrisburg, Pa., jeweler says that neither he nor one of his two workmen uses tobacco, and both can handle any polished tool in the shop and lay it aside without injury. The other workman uses tobacco habitually, and if he neglects to wipe polished tools after using them rust spots will soon invariably appear. The reports concerning the damages caused by the recent floods in the Argentine Republic have not been exaggerated. It has been estimated that at least 40,000 head of cattle and 8,000,000 sheep perished. Hundreds of families have been ruined by this insultation. The most disastrous which has ever occurred in the country. The white and the black members of a Methodist Bible class in Youngstown, Ohio, were separated.

The Sierra Flame and Lumber Company has 32 miles of road in Shasta, Tehama and Butte counties. Most of these private roads do not reach any point where there is a public railroad, and not one of them makes a connection with a public road. Most of the railroads are connected together, so that even where the cars do not run through, the timetables for passenger trains are in harmony. The N. P. C. Railroad (Narrow-gauge in Marin and Sonoma), and the S. F. N. P. Railroad(in Petaluma and Russian Valleys) have occupied solitary positions, but next Spring, if not before, they will be connected by a branch from Petaluma to San Rafael. There will then be urgent need of a branch to connect Suscol with Petaluma. The leading central and terminal points of railroads in the State are San Francisco, Oakland, Vallejo, Benicia, Sacramento, Sancelito, Los Angeles, Wilmington and Santa Monica, which owe much of their trade to the roads, and depend for a large part of their future growth upon the favorable influences to trafhe on the iron tracks. The average per mile cost of the railroads has not less than $20,000—perhaps $25,-000; but, at the smaller figure, the total expense of their construction has been $80,-000,000. This sum is a permanent addition to the public wealth, for however high the fares and freights may be, and however unprofitable some of the roads may be to their owners, they all offer important facilities to transportation, and have done much to give value to land and to stimulate production. New as our slope is, it compares favorably with older communities in the amount of capital invested in railroads in proportion to population. Russia has one mile of road for 8000 inhabitants, Spain for 4000, Germany and France for 3000, Great Britain for 2000, the United States for 500, and the Pacific Slope for 300. This comparison is indicative of power to continue to attract immigrants, for many generations, from more crowded and less energetic communities.—Alta. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. H. D. Brackett, a school teacher of Carpenteria, Santa Barbara county, was shot and fatally wounded by Benjamin Sutten. Brackett had seduced the 15 year old daughter of Sutten. Last week we made mention of a cherry tree bearing on the eve of winter. And now attention is called to another instance fully as remarkable. Philip Schmittspan informs us that he has on his premises an early bearing apple tree, which yielded a crop in the summer, and is now bearing for the second time this season. Not only it again bearing full-grown fruit, but blossoming as well at the same time. Perhaps a system of reform has set among the fruit trees, and perennial bearers may be the order of the future.—Santa Clara Echo.

The Emperor of Germany suffers much from carache, and has lately presented in public the unusual spectacle of a crowned head tied up in a black bandage. The growing of flax and the manufacture of linen are restricted to the province of Ulster. Some idea of the magnitude of the Irish linen trade may be gathered from the fact that the quantity exported to foreign countries last year amounted to 13,937,200 yards, an increase over the corresponding month of 1876 of 1,899,000 yards. Spain and Italy used to be the best customers, but the United States now consume nearly as much as all other foreign countries put together. Thus during the last month we took 6,643,-600 yards out of a total export of 13,937,200. Its said that from 12,000 to 15,000 chignons are annually imported from France to England, besides sufficient additional hair to make 10,000 more; the total value of the hair being £38,000. It is computed that many thousand pounds of hair are annually picked up in the streets of Marseilles alone by the rag pickers and children engaged for that purpose from the "combings" which are thrown away daily from the ladies' dressing tables. Charley Cochran, the trainer of Goldsmith Maid, says that she has certainly retired from the race course. He has slept in the stable with her every night for four years. Her temper used to be bad at times, and she would kick and bite without provocation; but of lats she has become more docile. In her worst moods, however, she would not harm a woman. A Scotch terrier is her pet and constant companion. She has earned an aggregate of $325,000, and has traveled 130,-600 miles in railroad cars. As to her fast trotting Cochran says: "I don't say that she ever could have done a mile better than in 2:14 though she might have knocked two seconds off of that had everything been just right for a trial. She did trot in 2:13 over Belmont Park track last year, but they only gave it out 2:14 because there were so few people there, and they thought they would get a bigger crowd some time, and be sure to beat it. Mr. Balch, of Boston, was one of the judges, and made the heat in 2:13; and he wanted it given out so, but couldn't get his way. Sister Simplicia, a sister of charity belonging to the convent of "Good Succor," at Turin, was recently walking out in charge of a procession or orphan pupils. A mad dog attacked the column when the brave sister went for him; caught him by the nose; and held him until and came to her relief. Her fingers were terribly bitten by the animal; and a few days after she died of hydrophobia in terrible agony. An influential Southern paper observes that should manufactures increase as rapidly in the South during the next decade as they have during that which has just past; while her agricultural interests continue also to flourish; it will be a matter of entire indifference to her whether we have protection or free trade.

Estudillo, of Old San Diego, niece of our State Treasurer, were united in the happy bonds of wedlock by the Rev. Father Ubach, in the family chapel at Guajome. After the ceremony all present participated in a sumptuous supper, toasts were given and many festivities were engaged in. After supper dancing was in order, and was kept up until the wee hours of morning, after which all retired, and in the morning were ready to enjoy the sports of the coming day. At the invitation of Don Juan Forster of Santa Margarita, the new couple, relatives and a few friends started for his place, and on arriving attended the christening of an infant girl of Mr. and Mrs. Adolpho Stokes, after which all were seated to a bountiful repeat. In the evening, dancing, games, moonlight walks, etc., were in order, and indeed, a great deal of fun was had; keeping it up until midnight. Early the following morning the bridal party left Don Juan's for Guajome. This has been one of the largest wedding foasts ever held in the county.—San Diego Union. The Alta a few days ago said that 23 37-100 inches of rain had fallen in Sonoma county during the past two months, but in a subsequent issue explained that it intended to say 2 37-100. The Legislature will be asked to divide Alameda county. Three fire engines will be sold at auction in Sacramento on December 10th. The Santa Cruz Island Company lost a thousand head of sheep last week. They were running in a band that was not herded, and the place where they got water was overflowed by the extreme high tides. Nearly one-third of the whole band died from drinking salt water. The company has already fed one hundred and fifty tons of hay in consequence of the scarcity of feed, and their sheep are all in good condition.—Santa Barbara Press. A Chinese druggist in Santa Barbara makes a salve that he warrants to knock worms endways; the principal ingredients of which are chemically-pure pigeons' livers, amfatida, burut chickens' feathers, and muscard seed. Fingers were terribly bitten by the animal, and a few days after she died of hydrophobia, in terrible agony. An influential Southern paper observes that should manufactures increase as rapidly in the South during the next decade as they have during that which has just past, while her agricultural interests continue also to flourish, it will be a matter of entire indifference to her whether we have protection or free trade. Chin Sin, a Celestial of progressive ideas, secured a license to take unto his bosom for good or for evil, for better and for worse. Miss Lizzie Oolsen, a damselfish with singular perverse views respecting the advantages of Mongolian companionship. Mr. Sin is a stalwart specimen of the prescribed race, very intelligent and self-processed, and capable of rendering a husbandly lecture in tolerably emphatic English. He brought with him his attorney, who vouched for his statements. He gave his age as 29 years, and inscribed his signature to the Clerk's books with the rocklessness of a professional book-keeper. The bride, who resides at No. 10, Prospect place, is a Swedish woman. She is not a marvel of female loveliness, and it is to be presumed that the adventurous Celestial chose her for a life companion rather for her qualities of mind and heart than for the superficial attractions of her face. A slanderous report that the happy young lady was one of the community of Brigham Young's widows was vehemently denied by the bridegroom in the presence of the County Clerk. He related that the attachment was conceived in Ogden six years ago and had progressed variably until the present time.—S. F. Chronicle. A Scandinavian ball was in progress at Omaha when a party of persons, men and women, who have become very religious, entered the hall after purchasing their tickets, and began to pray. One of the party, a minister who has recently been converting numerous Scandinavians and who organized this praying band, commenced to make a speech urging the dancers to become converted. The Committee of Arrangements came up and requested him to step out. The minister and his companions then went into the hall and there knelt down and prayed for ten minutes, creating considerable excitement and curiosity. Finally the minister was forebeyed from the building, but he continued the prayer meeting on the sidewalk for quits a long time afterward. The dance was resumed inside, and no more attention paid to the praying band. The Household troops in England experience much difficulty in filling up their ranks. The Life Guards formerly would not accept any recruit under six feet, and neither Roman Catholics nor Irishmen were admitted into the corps. Now they have lowered their minimum standard to five feet ten inches and thirty-six inches round the chest, and are as ready to accept Irishmen and Roman Catholics as any other recruit. The Scotas Guards also accept Irishmen.
