WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...DECEMBER 1. 1877. TRAMPS. The genus tramp has made his appearance in Anaheim. He is very numerous. He is also very hungry. He yearneth for the steaming flapjack, while the succulent beefsteak, awakeneth within him the most agonizing longings. Like a bird of prey, he chooseth the night-time in which to sally forth and seek the wherewith to allay the wolf within him. He spendeth the day in the arms of the God of Sleep, only waking at intervals to inhale the deadly nicotine from the baleful cigarette. From which we infer that he is a lazy animal. We have never heard of his asking for work. On the contrary, we have known him to refuse to earn his victuals by the sweat of his brow. No toil-hardened, labor-bliistered hands have they. But they have exceedingly dirty ones. It seems a hard thing to turn away a fellow-creature from your door, and refuse him the small boon of bread and meat, to allay the pangs of hunger. But no really worthy man, especially if he be reduced to the plight of having to beg from door to door, will refuse to perform a reasonable amount of labor as a recompense for what he asks. Thus we have a test by which we can distinguish the worthy from the unworthy—the poor unfortunate from the idle vagabond. When a stout, healthy individual applies for "a meal," tell him to saw that wood, spade up that garden, rake up that rubbish or perform some little task which will entitle him to receive the meal as a recompense and not as a gift. If he has the least spark of manliness about him, he will gladly and willingly set himself about the task allotted to him; but a refusal to accept the work tendered stamps him as unworthy of regard, and not a fit object for the receipt of your bounty. It is just as wrong to give indiscriminately as to refuse indiscriminately. In the one case encouragement is giving to a pernicious calling, and in the other it is indicative of parsimony, meanness, and miserly qualities. While it is not true charity to give to the worthy and unworthy alike, it is certainly wrong to refuse to assist every applicant for THE BUDDED OR THE SEED-LING. The Controversy in regard to the Merits of the Two—Some facts in favor of the Seedling. Those who contemplate planting an orange orchard must be on the ragged edge of uncertainty as regards the comparative merits of the seedling and the budded tree. It is a matter of great import that no mistake be made; that the orchard should be planted with trees which in due course of time will give forth abundantly and be a recompense for the labor bestowed during the years of non-production. And so, we say, the present discussion as to whether seedling or budded trees are most profitable is one in which prospective orange growers are deeply interested, and is a question upon which they desire the greatest possible light to be thrown. The unanimity with which nurserymen have for some time past recommended budding would seem to establish the superiority of trees so treated over the seedling, because it is presumed that the very nature of their business gives them authority to speak understandingly on such a subject. But that even nurserymen run after strange gods, and are betrayed into endorsing and extolling the merits of some particular tree or plant of which they know but little, is a fact so well known that the people are not so prone to place reliance on their recommendations as they otherwise undoubtedly would. The most recent and apt instance of this kind happened a few years ago, when what is known as the Konah orange was first introduced. They vaunted its excellencies and forced it upon tree-planters until its utter worthlessness was fully demonstrated. Instances like this go to prove the folly of relying entirely upon the statements of those who make tree-growing and selling a business; and should impress upon one the necessity of consulting with and getting the advice of intelligent men, whose opinions are not biased by the fact of their having for sale a few hundred thousand trees of some particular kind. In this county, the leading champion of budding is Mr. Thos. A. Garey, a very intelligent, honest gentleman, and a nurseryman of great repute. As a member of a Committee of the Horticultural Society, he had occasion some time ago to address a meeting and then another formidable It is simply impossible for them to bear their load of fruit necessary to prop them up expense of such a proceeding require all the poles in the way to prop one hundred acres.

He left of enterprise; but the safari army depended upon the success movement. Said he to the officers: "Colonel, I have faith man." The San Diego Union is lost in wonderment over the fact that a dealer in that city has imported lemons from Sicily, while at the same time the gardens in San Diego are full of, the choicest Sicily lemon trees, loaded with magnificent fruit. Bless you,' that's nothing. Here in this county we send to San Francisco for apples, and fruit-growers here complain that they can't sell their crop. We import bacon, and potatoes, and eggs, and walnuts, and rains and lots of other things which are either raised or manufactured in abundance at home. Only the other day we saw an individual bring to town a large box of limes, and because he could not get a cent apiece for them he took them home with him again. The chances are that he will ship them to San Francisco, get twenty-five cents a hundred for them, and it is just as likely that they will be re-shipped to Los Angeles and sold there. We know of our own knowledge that this, has been done with walnuts. We have dubbed Sharon a Senatorial fraud, because we believe that, having accepted the position (or bought it), he should attend to the duties attached to it. The party which honored him with an election, (or whose representatives were complacent enough to receive his money for their votes,) is in danger of losing control of the United States Senate, and becoming a minority in that body. Some of his fellow-Senators telegraphed to Sharon urging him to repair at once to the National Capitol, and by his ing entirely upon the statements of those who make tree-growing and selling a business; and should impress upon one the necessity of consulting with and getting the advice of intelligent men, whose opinions are not biased by the fact of their having for sale a few hundred thousand trees of some particular kind.

As a member of a Committee of the Horticultural Society, he had occasion some time ago to address a meeting in Anaheim. We attended, and reported his remarks very fully, and as our report was copied into nearly every paper in the county, we presume the buddist's side of the question is pretty well understood, and that people are now ready to hear arguments on the other side. For this purpose we inveighled Dr. Hardin into our sanctum the other day, and in the course of an hour's conversation we gleaned some interesting information which we condense below. We premise, however, by stating that Dr. Hardin is the owner of an orange grove of twenty acres, the trees being six years from the seed. In the cultivation and care of its orchard the Doctor has gained valuable experience; and he has so increased his knowledge by study and correspondence with eminent fruit growers that his opinions are entitled to great consideration. In conversing with the Doctor in regard to budded trees, he said that two years ago the Agricultural Department at Washington notified the American Consuls in various semi-tropical countries to forward to the Department a statement giving information in regard to the effect of budding on trees. The report of one of these Consuls, Gillespie, of Mexico, was published in the San Francisco Alta. Gillespie had been a resident of Mexico for thirty years, and apparently wrote with a full knowledge of the facts. His testimony was that budding and grafting orange and lemon trees had been in vogue in Mexico for twenty-five years. The budded trees bore three or four years sooner than the seedling, and the fruit was very fine; but at the expiration of three or four years the fruit commenced to deteriorate in size and flavor. When the tree was 8 or 10 years of age it bore thousands of oranges, but they would be so small as to be utterly unsaleable. The Doctor's experience is entirely corroborative of Mr. Gillespie's statement. For instance, he budded on a China lemon stock. Last year this tree bore 75 fine oranges; this year the same tree has only 5 oranges, and they are not larger than a walnut. In fact, instances without number might be quoted proving that, while budding undoubtedly causes the tree to bear earlier, the fruit will in a very few years become small, flavorless and unmarketable. This view of the question is held by many gentlemen of experience, like Colf. D. B. Wilson, Mr. Rose and others. These gentlemen don't dispute that the budded tree bears entirely upon the statements of those who make tree-growing and selling a business; and should impress upon one the necessity of consulting with and getting the advice of intelligent men, whose opinions are not biased by the fact of their having for sale a few hundred thousand trees of some particular kind.

We have dubbed Sharon a Senatorial fraud, because we believe that, having accepted the position (or bought it), he should attend to the duties attached to it. The party which honored him with an election, (or whose representatives were complacent enough to receive his money for their votes,) is in danger of losing control of the United States Senate, and becoming a minority in that body. Some of his fellow-Senators telegraphed to Sharon urging him to repair at once to the National Capitol, and by his presence and vote help to maintain the Republican supremacy in the Senate. But he coolly telegraphs in reply that his private interests will suffer by his absence from San Francisco, and that he cannot possibly be in Washington until the latter part of December! Now, are we not right in calling this fellow a fraud? Pleading as an excuse for dodging his public duties that he is engaged in gambling in stocks! We have a fine climate in this county. We have made this remark several times before. By a little straining of memory, our readers will doubtless recollect of our having told them so once or twice. But now we propose to vary our monotone. We want some bad weather, some beastly climate, so to speak. We want mud, and slush, and dampness. And if our climate is spoiled to-morrow by a downpour of moisture, there are many who will pass with a jest over a deficiency of tunderness in the turkey, or a lack of flavor in the stuffin'. As the California Legislature will convane on Monday, we publish the following table in order to refresh our readers' memories in regard to the political status of the body: | Democracy | 29 | | Representative | 11 | | Independent | 1 | | Assembly | 54 | | Democratic | 28 | | Independent Republican | 1 | | Independent | 1 | | Point Ballot | 52 | | Republican | 35 | | Independents | 2 | Total: 129 For instance, he budded on a China lemon stock. Last year this tree bore 75 fine oranges; this year the same tree has only 5 oranges, and they are not larger than a walnut. In fact, instances without number might be quoted proving that, while budding undoubtedly causes the tree to bear earlier, the fruit will in a very few years become small, flavorless and unmarketable. This view of the question is held by many gentlemen of experience, like Col. D. B. Wilson, Mr. Rose and others. These gentlemen don't dispute that the budded tree bears sooner, but, to use the language of Mr. Rose, "in ten years the seedling will overtake and outstrip it." The report of the Committee of the Horticultural Society, which we published last week, recommends that the orange root be preferred above all others for budding, as it is healthier. This may be so, but the question is whether it will not affect the prime object for which budding is recommended—early bearing. Seven years ago Dr. Hardin budded on the China and Sicily lemon stock. These trees are now bearing from 25 to 40 oranges each. At the same time he budded on the orange stock, and the result is one tree has 16 oranges, another 5, and the third has none. If you bud orange on orange, it won't come into bearing for seven years; but if you bud on China or Sicily lemon, fruit will appear in from four to five years. Therefore, if the point to be gained is early fruiting, the China and Sicily lemon stock should be used. In regard to the new varieties which have been introduced, which commence bearing at 18 months and 2 years from the bud, the Doctor said that it was an utter impossibility for the roots of such a tree to furnish the required nourishment, and that it must inevitably succumb to the strain put upon it. A simile is found in the case of a young, fragile mother at whose breast a strong, healthy infant is taking nourishment. It drains the strength of the mother, destroys her vitality and leaves her weak, helpless and an easy prey to death. It is just no with these early bearing orange trees. The strain upon it will cause it to die prematurally. In three or four years they will overheat themselves, At the time young Griesbach sank near Volcano, he was unattended dog. The dog at once understood thing was amiss, and that the dog help, and started off home to mend the mishap as best he could. Reason destination, the animal commences piteously, running back and for the house as if to attract attention which he would instantly start direct line, as though anxious to way somewhere. It was the only dumb brute had, but it was intelligible for the inmates to tell that something had gone wrong-out with the dog as their guide, and canine manitested unmistakable sniffing He led the way straight to where he led boy was lying, beside a stream at which he was trying to wash from his wounds. Had it not been action of the brute benefactor he help, Griesbach might have perished loss of blood ere his friends became the accident. The extraordinary feat completeddon, by Gale, the Cardiff pedestrian ing 4,000 quarter miles in 4,000 periods of ten minutes each—is parallel in athletic annals. Commit it. Capt. Barklay's historic 1,000 hours—a feat frequently seen since, and lately, we believe even English woman—sinks into the minor performances. Robert Skipp half miles, in 1,100 half hours was as remarkable a performance as this because the length of continuous sleep at each resting interval was more. Gale's previous feat of 1,500 consecutive hours was also dented. In fact, Gale is the read Giant. Mrs. Geo. H. Thompson, sister of Sargent committed suicide on Saturday Lowell, Mass. and then another formidable objection arises. It is simply impossible for the tender limbs to bear their load of fruit, and it becomes necessary to prop them. Just imagine the expense of such a proceeding. It would require all the poles in the State of California to prop one hundred acres of these trees. The champions of budding are fond of pointing to the fact that it is a popular practice in Florida, but they either forget to state or are ignorant of the conditions which there render budding a necessity. When one goes to Florida for the purpose of engaging in orange culture, he buys a tract of land which is already thickly covered with wild orange trees. He thins out these trees until he gets them in orchard form, twenty to thirty feet apart. These native Florida oranges are small, bitter and unpalatable, and budding must necessarily be resorted to. The objection of over-bearing does not apply there, as the trees are old ones, with large roots capable of furnishing nourishment. So that the argument that "they all do it in Florida" is no argument at all, as the conditions between there and here are so very dissimilar. From the mass of testimony now presented on both sides, the reader will probably be able to arrive at some conclusion in regard to the merits and demerits of budding. It is only by an active discussion of both sides that the proper understanding of any question can be arrived at. And we believe that in discussing this matter the Gazette has fulfilled the wishes of hundreds of its readers. Much other information in regard to orange culture was obtained during our conversation with Dr. Hardin, which we find it impossible to give in this article. We will, however, in a future issue give the information thus obtained. Deeds of Daring. During the peninsular campaign Wellington was often forced to send picked men into dangerous places. On a certain occasion it became necessary to capture a battery at St. Sebastian—a battery that was hurling death and destruction into the British ranka—and the lay of the land was such, and the attendant circumstances, that not more than a full regiment could be used in the work. The Duke selected the body of man and told them what he wanted done. He knew the danger of the enterprise; but the safety of the whole army depended upon the success of that one movement. Said he to the commanding officer: "Colonel, I have faith in you and your BY TELEGRAPH. The Loss of the "Huron." New York, November 25—Morning—The Times special from Norfolk says: On Saturday last the Huron left New York, where she had been taking in storms for a surveying expedition on the coast of Cuba, and came to Hampton Roads, where she arrived on Monday and at once began taking in coal. Disregarding the storm signals which been flying for three days, she set sail for her destination yesterday morning. Last night a fierce storm from the southeast raged along the coast, the wind blowing at the rate of seventy miles an hour. The theory of those well acquainted with the coast is that the Huron was caught in the height of a gale; while trying to hold on, head to the wind, her machinery gave way, and her sails being nailed against such a wind, she slowly drifted ashore. The sea was running tremendously high and being an iron vessel, the Huron soon became a total wreck. Her foremast and main topmast were the first to go by the board, and in an incredibly short time she was literally dashed to pieces. Attempts were made to lower the boats, but without avail. The sea made a clean breach over her hull, sweeping her unfortunate crew into the breakers in the darkness and storm. escape was rendered almost impossible, and only 30 persons out of a total of 130 souls managed to reach the beach in safety, most of them in a shockingly bruised condition. The remainder afar is known at the present writing, were drowned in the surf or killed by floating timber. The spot where the disaster took place is about two miles north of Life-saving Station No. 7, near Oregon Inlet. The crew at the station hurried to the scene of the wreck and attempted to render assistance, but were prevented from doing so by the fury of the storm, although they remained on the spot until 3 o'clock this afternoon. The surf was full of dead bodies that could not be reached, and the only ones recovered were a few that happened to be washed ashore during the day. Three officers were among the saved. These were Ensign Young, Assistant Engineer Denig and Cadet Engineer Warburton. All the saved are destitute of clothing and other necessaries. At a late hour to-night the United States cutter Hamilton, with the Superintendent of the life-saving station, Captain Guthrie, sailed from Old Point for the scene of the disaster, and the Baker Bros. sent wrecking steamer Resolute to endeavor if possible to render assistance. The Naval Academy authorities hurriedly got together a supply of clothing, food and medicine and sent them on the tug Chowan in charge of a surgeon, via Albemarle and Chesapeake canal, to Nag's Head, where the survivors now are. The main object of the Huron's voyage was to go to the south side of Cuba and determine the latitude and longitude at a stand, but there are indications of move rain. On the Chespake and Ohio Railroad the trains will be running as usual on Monday. The Danville road is considerably damaged by the Roanoke river, and the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio roads are badly washed out. The James river at this point at 6 p.m. was eight feet above high water mark, and is still rising at the rate of a foot per hour. The wharves in the lower part of the city are submerged, and arriving steamers are unable to discharge their cargoes. The merchants along the river are moving merchandise to high points in anticipation of a great increase in the flood when the waters from above Lynchburg reach Richmond, which will be to-morrow morning. A tugboat was sunk by being dashed against a pier-head. One hundred and fifty cars and extra locomotives are busy at the wharves of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad removing freight. RICHMOND, Nov. 25—Midnight—A dispatch from Lynchburg states that the river there is nearly as high as in 1870; and the bridges are in impedeite danger. The damage to property is very great. The water has risen 17 feet since last eveening. The same dispatch warns our people to prepare for coming waters and that the danger cannot be exaggerated. Advices from Charlottesville report much damage along the Rivanna river. The Charlottesville Wooden Mills are also considerably damaged. The washing away of an embankment on the Stanton river broke down the telegraph lines. The mail train south on this road did not leave Richmond to-night. The merchants are still removing goods from the river warehouses. RICHMOND, Nov. 27—The loss to private property in this city may be safely estimated at from three to four hundred thousand dollars. Other losses will greatly augment this amount. The damage at Manchester, on the opposite side of the river, will reach $100,-000. There is considerable suffering among poor people. Many had to camp out last night and are still shelterless. The damage to the James River and Katawha Canal is not so serious as at first supposed. LYNCHEWUO, Nov. 27th—The Amherst bridge, 900 feet in length, erected after the flood of 1870, was swept away Saturday night, and with it two new iron bridges of the Atlantic & Mississippi and Ohio railroads below the city. The latter were erected at a cost of $70,000. Four bridges on the same road, between Bonsocks and Big Spring, were swept away. The Stanton river bridge and trestle near Galveston, were seriously damaged. There is a considerable break in the canal above the city, and the damage weatof here is reported to be more serious than that of 1870. Interesting Proceedings in the Senate. WASHINGTON NOVEMBER 25 During the peninsular campaign Wellington was often forced to send pickled men into very dangerous places. On a certain occasion it became necessary to capture a battery at St. Sebastian—a battery that was hurling death and destruction into the British ranks—and the lay of the land was such, and the attendant circumstances, that not more than a full regiment could be used in the work. The Duke selected the body of men and told them what he wanted done. He knew the danger of the enterprise; but the safety of the whole army depended upon the success of that one movement. Said he to the commanding officer: "Colonel, I have faith in you and your men. Your regiment is the first in the world." "Ay, my Lord," replied the Colonel, quickly, "and by the time your order is fully executed it will be the first in the next!" And then he plunged to the head of his regiment, and gave the order for the forward movement. His reply to the Duke had been heard by those who had stood near, and they told it to others, and so it flew through the regiment and became the battle cry. The old soldiers caught inspiration from it. It made them invincible. They somehow felt that it would be all right with them anyway. They would be the first regiment, let it be in this world or the next. With a loud shout they dashed on—dashed on with an impetus against which the French cannonners went down like grass—and not more than one man in twenty of the attacking party was fatally stricken. The Duke of Wellington in afterwards declared, and others declared with him, that it was the most magnificent charge ever seen. Napier, the military historian, in describing the close of the storming of Badajos, says: "Who shall describe the springing color of the Portuguese grenadier who was killed by the foremost man at Santa Maria? or the martial fury of that desperate rifleman, who, in his resolution to win, thrust himself beneath the chained sword-blades, and then offered the enemy to dash his head in pieces with the ends of their muskets?" Again, at the Coa, "a north of Ireland man named Stewart but jocularly called 'the Boy,' because of his youth (19), and of his gigantic feature and strength, who had fought bravely and displayed great intelligence beyond the river, was one of the last man who came down to the bridge, but he would not pass, turning round, he regarded the French with grim look, and spoke along as follows: 'So this is the end of our brag. This is our first battle, and we retreat! The boy Stewart will not live to hear that said.' Then stridgery forward in his gigantic night, he fell furiously on the nearest enemies with the bayonet, refused the quarter they seemed desirous granting, and died fighting in the midst of them." "Still more touching, more noble, more heroic was the death of Sergeant Rob Quade. During McLeod's rush this man, from the north of Ireland, saw two men level their muskets on rests against a high up in a bank, awaiting the uprise of an enemy. Adjutant-General Brown, then a lad of ten, attempted to ascend at the fatal McQuade, himself only twenty-four years of age, pulled him back, saying in a rumpled tone, "You are too young, to be killed;" and offering his own reason to the fire, fell dead, pierced with both its legs." And speaking of the British soldier: "What they were their successors now are witness the wreck of the Birkenhead, where for hundred men, at the call of their heroic coers, Captains Wright and Giardotd,ealmand without a murmur, accepted death a horrible form rather than endanger the men and children saved in the boats. The words of the world furnish no parallel to self-devotion." Rejoicing at Bakersfield. BAKERSFIELD, Nov. 24.—There is a great demonstration in the streets to-night, in response to the late decision by the Supreme Court, in the cases of Yoakum vs. Brower and Gardner vs. Yoakum, validating the Baker title to the town of Bakersfield. Flags have been waving from every building during the day, and now an immense bonfire illuminates the streets. A band is in attendance, cannon are firing, and crowds of citizens join in the Bakersfield Nov. 27th.—The Amherst bridge, 900 feet in length, erected after the flood of 1870, was swept away Saturday night, and with it two new iron bridges of the Atlantic & Mississippi and Ohio railroads below the city. The latter were erected at a cost of $70,000. Four bridges on the same road, between Ronsocks and Big Spring, were swept away. The Stanton river bridge and trestle near Galveston were serminally damaged. There is a considerable break in the canal above the city, and the damage west of here is reported to be morsal serious than that of 1870. Interesting Proceedings in the Senate. WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—The Senate proceedings yesterday were witnessed with intense excitement by more than a thousand spectators who filled the galleries and occupied all the available space on the floor. Many members of the House and distinguished visitors from abroad among those who sat or stood behind the outer row of desks of Senators. Judge Davis, the first speaker, was listened to with close attention and his reasons for immediate action on Butler's credentials were received with great satisfaction by the Democratic side of Chambers. The effect of his plausible remarks was utterly dissipated by Edmunds' reply; which instantly followed, with consummate force and keenness. Edmunds inquired whether the Senator was equally as anxious for a speedy settlement of this senatorial contest why he should not vote to take up the Kellogg-Spofford case which had been already fully examined and reported upon. In the course of further remarks, he scornfully denounced the pending resolution as an effort to create an extraordinary and an anomalous condition of things by means of a race and scramble of partisanship through corruption and in the bargain and sale of votes. His subsequent explicit assertion that he believed such bargain and sale would be proved, created a decided sensation as he is known to be very enti劲in making such statements. Patterson's speech, which followed, was mainly devoted to assentions that he had not abandoned the Republican party; that his vote for Butler would be cast in exact accordance with the will of the people of South Carolina and with his own announcement made a month ago. He should not be denounced or ruled out of his party for this reason any more than Edmunds should for his vote against the admission of Pinchback. Connover's speech was to the same effect, but was better phrased and produced a better impression. Patterson's manner was painfully excited, undignified and loudly agressive. Tardy Compensation. WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.—Page to-day introduced a bill providing for the payment of $60,000 to Wm. Davis, as compensation for the use and destruction of certain wharves and warehouses in San Diego by the military in 1862. A Selfish Senator. NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—The Evening Post says editorially: Senator Sharon of Nevada continues to be an object of interest and many telegraphic dispatches. Probably there is no parallel for this man's slamless neglect of duty. His indifference to party obligations is securing for him denunciation from persons who have observed without protest his carelessness of official responsibilities.

At the time young Griesbach shot himself in Volcano, he was unattended save by his dog. The dog at once understood that someone was amiss, and that the boy needed help, and started off home to make known him. He could be reached in the inn, running back and forth through house as if to attract attention, on gain which he would instantly start off in a hot line, as though anxious to lead somewhere. It was the only language dumb brute but, it was sufficiently illigible for the inmates to understand something had gone wrong. They set with the dog as their guide, at which the one manifested unmistakable signs of joy. The way straight to where the wound was lying, beside a stream of water which he was trying to wash the blood his wounds. Had it not been for this son of the brute benefactor in bringing Griesbach might have perished from blood ere his friends became aware of accident.—Amador Ledger. The extraordinary feat completed at Longby Gale, the Cardiff pedestrian—walking 1,000 quarter miles in 4,000 consecutive days of ten minutes each—is without a helmet in athletic annals. Compared with capt. Barklay's historic 1,000 miles in hours—a feat frequently duplicated—and lately, we believe, even by an old woman—sinks into the grade of performances. Robert Skipper's 1,000 miles in 1,100 half hours was not nearly remarkable a performance as this of Gale's, as the length of continuous sleep possible each resting interval was much great. Gale's previous feat of 1,500 miles in consecutive hours was also unpreceded. In fact, Gale is the real Cardiff. Bakersfield, Nov. 24. There is a great demonstration in the streets to night, in response to the late decision by the Supreme Court, in the cases of Yoakum vs. Brower and Gardner vs. Yoakum, validating the Baker title to the town of Bakersfield. Flags have been waving from every building during the day, and now an immense bonfire illuminates the streets. A band is in attendance, cannon are firing, and crowds of citizens join in the jubilee. A large canvass is stretched across the avenue, on which is painted in large letters, "Now we can read our title clear," a significant inscription, well understood in this community. Addresses are being delivered from a public stand, and a feeling of relief pervades the whole community, after a protracted litigation with the speculators, who have exhausted every means to deprive the citizens of their property. Only a Bit of Gush. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 26. The city papers yesterday all published what purported to be a copy of a telegram sent by Kearney and Knight, on behalf of their constituents, to President Hayes ridiculing the idea of the government landing its aid to protect the Chinese, and asserting their intention of driving them out of the country, peaceably if possible, otherwise forcibly, with considerable more of a similar nature to their harrangues on the stump. It now appears that no such dispatch has gone over the wires and that Kearney was simply guilty of a bit of gush, to give himself consequence in the eyes of his followers. Floods in Virginia. RICHMOND, (Va.), Nov. 24. The incessant rain of the past forty-eight hours resulted in heavy floods in the western portion of the State. All trains are stopped on the Western Division of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. The James and Roanoke rivers are higher than since 1870, and 150 feet of trestling of the Roanoke Railroad was swept away this morning, and the water is up to the bottom chord of the iron bridge. Several washes are reported. South river is also very high. Telegraph communication between Lynchburg and other places is interrupted. The James river has risen over the canal at Lynchburg. Trains are all stopped on the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio Railway. It is feared the flood will reach the dimensions of that of 1870, when so many lives were lost and millions of property destroyed. Late dispatches from Lynchburg state that the water is within five feet of the highest point reached by the Good of 1870 A Selfish Senator. NEW YORK, Nov. 26. The Evening Post says editorially: Senator Sharon of Nevada continues to be an object of interest and many telegraphic dispatches. Prebably there is no parallel for this man's shameless neglect of duty. His indifference to party obligations is securing for him denunciation from persons who have observed without protest his carelessness of official responsibilities. He votes against the Republicans in effect by his absence from the Senate, and the reasons for his absence are as selfish and unworthy as any can be. He stays away from Washington in order to make money in San Francisco. It seems certain now that he will not be in his seat in time to save the Republicans from defeat. Riley Wells, of this city, has just returned from a visit in the East. He came through and went on the emigrant train, and complains bitterly of the fare that the emigrants receive. He says that the cars are crowded and filthy and cold and ill-ventilated, the sick crowded amongst the strong, and that the conductor seemed to care for nothing but "tickets." He says that it was bad on the Union Pacific, but many degrees worse on the Central Pacific. Captain Chishclim, agent for Liverpool Underwriters, who has been in Peru adjusting the losses to British vessels occasioned by the tidal waves and earthquakes of the 9th of May, states that seventeen English vessels were more or less damaged, involving an aggregate loss to the insurance companies of about £70,000. An engineer named Werthemann has finished exploring the tributaries of the upper Amazon river. He found traces of savages in the Andean valleys, who, although possessing a certain degree of civilization, still maintain a position of deadly hostility towards all the other races, and resist the approaches of explorers to the death. Mrs. Johnson, wife of the British Vice Consul at Iquitos, Peru, was attacked and fired upon by the Mayor and a band of about fifty armed followers on the night of July 1st in her house. She fortunately escaped unhurt. At Callao on the 15th of October a man named Jose Andrade was arrested for beating his wife, and put in a cell in the prison where there were thirteen other inmates. A quarrel arose when Andrade killed three of his fellow prisoners and wounded three others with a knife. Rev Dr. William Alvin Eartlett, now of Indianapolis, who was on intimate terms with Senator Morton and visited him very often during his last illness, says that the Senator uniformly declined to hold religious conversation with any one, and that he died without any change of mind on that subject.

His trainer Drives Him Through the Streets in Harness. The celebrated man-eating horse Cognac was put under a new treatment yesterday by his new trainer, Professor Tapp. Two or three hundred spectators assembled in the pavilion tent at the rear of the Record Stables on Markof street, near Seventh, to see how an animal possessing Cognac's peculiar idiosyncrasies would conduct himself under the electrifying effects of a galvanic battery. The novelty of the experiment and the fame of the subject upon which it was to be tried, attracted several ladies, who accompanied their husbands to witness the exhibition. The ring enclosure is about seven feet high, and the seats for spectators are elevated still above this, so that they are presumably out of the reach of Cognac, if he should become hungry for some of them. Notwithstanding this he came very near making a square meal of a wholesome looking citizen who was unwarily leaning over the temporary rail that surmounts the ring enclosure. The horse was running at his freedom in the ring, and charged with a wild fury upon every person who approached the railing, although they were above his head. He seized the gentleman in question by the cont lappet, taking also his vest, shirt and undershirt in his tooth, and being an immensely powerful animal, it was with the greatest difficulty that the man was kept from being dragged into the ring and killed. As it was, the horse got away with a large piece of a broncloth coat and a hearty mouthful of veat, shirt and red flannel undergarment, and the man's breast was discolored, as if he had received a very heavy blow. This was before the audience had assembled or the Professor had come in. At two o'clock the work of securing Cognac began, and by a little maneuvering two ropes were made fast to the head stall he wore. This was accomplished by the Professor and an assistant who stood on the outside of the entrance door, which was opened just sufficiently to admit a man's arm; Cognac keeping his nose thrust close to the opening in the apparent hope of getting a nip at somebody. One of the ropes was then passed along the corridor in front of the seats and made fast to an upright post. Then the trainer entered the ring and secured the other rope to the tent pole. Thus Cognac found himself unable to follow the beat of his inclination any further. Prof. Tapp then gave a history of the animal. Cognac is a mottled grey thoroughbred Normandy stallion, of symmetrical but powerful mould. At his native-home he was docile, and was worked in the plough. He was imported to the United States two years ago, being then five years old. He became the property of a man in Illinois. One day his master put a halter on him the next day.

One of the ropes was then passed along the corridor in front of the seats and made fast to an upright post. Then the trainer entered the ring and secured the other rope to the tent pole. Thus Cognac found himself unable to follow the bent 'of his inclination any further. Prof. Tapp then gave a history of the animal. Cognac is a mottled grey thoroughbred Normandy stallion, of symmetrical but powerful mould. At his native-home he was docile, and was worked in the plough. He was imported to the United States two years ago, being then five years old. He became the property of a man in Illinois. One day his master put a halter on him, the style of which he took as a mortal affront, and he became refractory. All attempts to subdue him were in vain. He was so terribly beaten about the head that for some weeks he was but little better than a dead horse. He recovered and has ever since exhibited a deadly hostility toward man, though perfectly harmless to animals of his own species. The Professor exhibited the halters and fastenings with which the animal has been secured and handled heretofore since he has taken his present bloodthirsty notions. Tapp then retired from the ring, and in a few moments returned 'armed' as he expressed it. He had on an overcoat and buckskin gloves. In inside pockets of the overcoat he had two small electro-galvanic batteries, one on each side. These were connected by an insulated wire that passed behind his back. A wire run from each battery, one being positive and the other negative, passing down inside of the sleeve to his gloves and connected with a small metallic plate covering the ball of the thumb. He had also a brible bit with long reins attached. The bit was wound with a bit of copper wire, which extended along each strap to a small button. With a little difficulty he got the bit into the horse's mouth—the bridle being put over his head by niecemeal. During this process Cognac fought with his mouth and fore feet, as beat he could, but he shows no disposition whatever now to use his hind feet in warfare. Professor Tapp then took the reins, one in each hand. He kept the thumb of his left hand constantly on the button of that strap. His right thumb he kept over the other button, but not in contact with it, except when he wanted to give the house a dose of lightning. When all was ready he dropped his right thumb on the positive button, giving at first but a light charge. Cognac started as if he had been struck by a bullet. As the shocks were increased in strength the animal plunged and reared as much as his strong fastenings would permit. At length the side rope was loosened, and Cognac had the full circuit of the ring. Tapp let on the electric fluid, and Cognac reared high in the air, endeavoring to plunge at his tormentor, but Tapp kept his eye on him and by the slightest movement of his thumb created a wall which the horse could not cross. It was a magnificent sight. The horse, covered with foam, fretting, chatting and panting, reared and attempted to throw himself forward upon the Professor, but the brute-strength and fierceness paled before the best of science, and Cognac was powerless to do harm. The experiments continued about twenty minutes, when the Professor concluded to test the docility of the animal. He said that the principal thing to be overcome was Cognac's disposition to bite. Tapp approached him, stroked him on the body, then on the head, and took hold of his nose. Cognac, either from exhaustion or good nasal, permitted this, and even showed the same docility toward Tapp's assistant. Tapp thinks he has made a great improvement in Cognac. He thinks the galvanic treatment is a success, and in this he was concurred with by a number of horses in this arm.
