We have been kindly furnished with a copy of the following poem written by Mrs. A. T. Taylor and read by Mrs. F. S. Bowley at our celebration on the Fourth: Welcome! Friends, a joyous greeting! Welcome all, from far or near, Our young Nation's birthday keeping, Day to every heart so dear! Shout in clarion notes of gladness! Sound aloud in trumpet calls! Or in organ notes more softly Send the music round these walls. Wave, ye banners, upward streaming! Ring, ye bells, your merriest peals! While a million bright eyes beaming Tell the joy the spirit feels. Sing aloud a joyful anthem! Let it ring from shore to shore, Echoing back o'er vale and mountain, Freedom reigns forever more. Justice, Mercy, Toleration, Three fair sisters, hand in hand, Wave their banners bright before us; Shail we let them take command? No pure hearts lie crushed and bleeding, If they reign throughout the land. Hear them call for noble workers! "Brothers, sisters, brave and strong, Lift ye up the weak and fallen, Who have sunk in battling long, Vainly striving 'gunst the breakers Of Oppression, Hate and Wrong." Hasten on, ye glorious morning, When throughout our whole domain, Free from bonds and chains, so galling, These fair sisters wholly reign. Then may brother shake with brother Hands, or white, or black, or brown; And on nought but evil doing, Shall our sisters cast a frown. Let the kind and true Celestial, Coming from a western shore, Meet a full and free reception, In our land, forever more. Wives and mothers, full of burdens, Sinking down with many a care; You, who thought there was no resting On God's foot-stool anywhere, On this side the golden city Which the Savior will prepare; Will you let the politician Take the help our Father sends, Back again to starving China, To accomplish their base ends?

Oral REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. B. Marxsen has been held over in bonds of $1000 to appear before the next Grand Jury on a charge of setting fire to the Central Hotel in Los Angeles a few days ago. The attention of sheep men is again directed to the advertisement of Mr. Charles Wagner, who offers a number of thoroughbred and graded bucks for sale. The stock is of the choicest and the price asked is most reasonable. General John C. Fremont, the newly-appointed Governor of Arizona, will reach Los Angeles in a few days, on route to the Territory. The Mexican War Veterans intend to give him a reception upon his arrival at Los Angeles. There were forty-five persons at Silverado on Wednesday evening. The mountains are swarming with people, and every man has a bonanza in possession or prospective. There is about twenty thousand dollars worth of ore lying on the ground at the Harvey & Thistlewaite mine. Attention is particularly directed to the advertisement of Webster, Howe and Co., of the Garden Grove Store. A change of firm makes it necessary that the stock on hand be disposed of, and to that end they have made material reductions in the price of every article they have now on hand. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of Anaheim School District, held on Monday last, the contract for the building of the new school house was awarded to Mr. G. F. Leonard, of Los Angeles, for $9,100. The offer of Messrs. Perry, Woodworth & Co., to purchase the bonds of the School District at par, half gold and half silver, was accepted. Don Juan Warner informs us that, in going out to the Puente rancho yesterday, he saw several parties of Chinamen engaged in gathering wild mustard seed. The Mongolians had tents and were encamped near the Puente station. One of the gangs numbered about twenty and all seemed to be working as though they expected to realize good wages for their labor.—Herald. A Mexican named Refugio Boca killed an old man named Wm. Palmerton and his wife in San Jacinto valley, San Bernardino county, last Friday. He struck them down with an axe, ransacked and robbed their house, and then fled to the mountains. He was subsequently captured by officers. An armed mob took the murderer from his captors and hung him. A Sacramento paper has the following item concerning the sad death of a little grandson of Dr. Dassonville: The visit of Frederick Dassonville and family to Webber Lake terminated with a distressing accident Monday morning. The family had packed up preparatory to returning home when the little boy Freddy, scarcely two years old, a bright, winsome little fellow, was missed. Search was immediately instituted, but at And on nongit but evil doing. Shall our sisters cast a frown. Let the kind and true Celestial, Coming from a western shore, Meet a fail and free reception, In our land, forever more. Wives and mothers, full of burdens, Sinking down with many a care; You, who thought there was no resting On God's foot stool anywhere, On this side the golden city Which the Savior will prepare; Will you let the politician Take the help our Father sends, Back again to starving China, To accomplish their base ends? Let your earnest tearful pleading, Urge our sons and brothers on, Till the side of right and justice Has at last the victory won. In their bright and glorious country, Washed by oceans broad and free, Would there were no slaves to passion, Sunk in vice and misery. If the hissing, fiery serpents, Streaming from the rockets high, Or beneath your feet, so swiftly, With their fire trails shooting by, Were the only hurtful monsters, Dealing out destruction sure, Then no life destroying poison Would desilate our home, so pure. Scourge of all our land the greatest Is the wine fiend's fearful clasp; Good resolves, and high endeavor, Crushing in his fatal clasp. Could you see dark chains of passion, Forging neath the Enchanter's light, See the deadly Ignis Fatus Leading on to shades of night. You who'd shun the enticing poison, Oft the festal board adorning, Listen to a sister's pleading, Bless the hand upraised in warning. You would flee the dreadful serpent, Glowing in the fiery cup, And from all its sweet alurements, Bid your fettered souls, look up. Look up, to where the crystal fountain, Leaping, foaming from the height, Wreathed in heavenly lines of beauty, Dance and sparkle in the light. Look up, and grasp the living waters, Drink of that pure shining wave, Till the soul, unfettered, soaring, Scorns again to be a slave. Let the Stars and Stripes around us, Mingling with the ribbon blue, Lift our sons and brothers upward To a standard pure and true. Let Excelsior be our motto, Aiming ever for the right; And, at least, in our Westminster, Keep the ribbon always bright. Then shall Truth, the heavenely angel, Point to aim of lofty height, And inspired by Love supernal, Lead us up to realms of light. Last Sabbath morning we attended Mr. Allen's temperance meeting at Santa Ana. There were about 800 in the tent; fully a fourth of the audience being Westminster people. The choir, who so ably assisted Mr. Allen here, were present and by their help added largely to the interest of the meeting. It was impossible to judge what the result of the series of meetings would be; but we can not see how they can fail of accomplishing good—even in "towns of morality, like Santa Ana." It is doubtful whether so many A Sacramento paper has the following item concerning the sad death of a little grandson of Dr. Dassonville: The visit of Frederick Dassonville and family to Webber Lake terminated with a distressing accident Monday morning. The family had packed up preparatory to returning home when the little boy Freddy, scarcely two years old, a bright, winsome little fellow, was missed. Search was immediately instituted, but at first no trace of him could be discovered. Finally, however, Mr. Dassonville observed his body floating in the lake, at a point were the water was only about knee deep, he having apparently fallen from the little wharf near the hotel. He was quickly taken from the water, and everything done to resuscitate him, but, though he had only been in the water a few minutes, the efforts were unavailing. Disasters from Fire—A Horrible Death. From Dr. Hayward, who was in town yesterday, we learn that the house of Col. Sibley, who lives on the Oge ranch, near Orange, was burned about 4 o'clock on Thursday afternoon. It is supposed that the young members of the family were either playing with kerosone near the fire, or were using it in lighting the fire in the kitchen stove, and that an explosion occurred. The little 10 year-old daughter of Col. Sibley ran from the house, her clothes afire, and threw herself into the ditch near the house. She was terribly burned and lingered in great agony until some time during the night, when she died. The house and all it contained was a total loss, not even a change of clothing having been saved. Col. Sibley was away at the time, and his wife was powerless to save anything, so quickly did the flames do their work. The family are entirely destitute, and have appealed to our citizens for aid to enable them to get a start again. At Artesia a few days ago a fire destroyed the entire crop of Mr. J. Bingham. The loss is estimated at $1500. As we write (Friday 1 o'clock P.M.) a large fire is burning in the direction of Garden Grove. Then shall Truth, the heavenly angel, Point to aim of lofty height, And inspired by Love supernal, Lead us up to realms of light. Last Sabbath morning we attended Mr. Allen's temperance meeting at Santa Ana. There were about 800 in the tent; fully a fourth of the audience being Westminster people. The choir, who so ably assisted Mr. Allen here, were present and by their help added largely to the interest of the meeting. It was impossible to judge what the result of the series of meetings would be; but we can not see how they can fail of accomplishing good—even in "towns of morality, like Santa Ana." It is doubtful whether so many pledges will be taken as were here—between 700 and 800—though we should like to know that fully 1000 signed there. We were amused to see one of our bachelors in one his gallant moods carrying a young lady's parasol for her. His method, carefully shielding his own face from the sun and leaving hers exposed to old Sol's fierce rays, showed that he was only an apprentice. When he has passed his novitiate we shall hope for a marked change. The Fourth is over, the tent gone, and some of our people seem almost lost. In our notes on the celebration here we omitted to mention the part taken by R. O. B. Simpson and Miss J. Kate King. We wish the newly wedded pair abundant success and happiness. The Presbyterian social was not held Tuesday evening. After the notice we gave last week was handed us the ladies decided to postpone the social, as it would so closely follow the Fourth that they could not get rested. We do not know when the social will be held, but probably not until next month. This society cleared nearly $25 at their ice cream stand on the 4th. The annual meeting of the Presbyterian congregation was held Saturday afternoon; not having time to finish all the business, they adjourned to meet in the hall this week Saturday, July 13th at 2:30 P.M. sharp. P. Lyons of this place, while working a few days ago in his young orchard, was surprised to find a purple blossom in one of his apple trees. On examination he found a stalk of alfalfa had grown so near to the trunk of the tree as to miss getting out the last time he mowed. It had kept on growing till it stood seven feet four inches high. This goes ahead of any alfalfa story we have seen. Any person feeling doubtful about the figures can see the stalk at the post office. Several persons claim that the earthquake a few weeks ago caused their wells to diminish. It is said that the Westminster school trustees have employed a gentleman from San Jose, who has been teaching in the State Normal School, to take charge of the school here during the next year. When receiving large sums of money—a very common thing here, look out for counterfeits of the new silver dollar; many are in circulation. They are so well executed that it is very difficult to find any difference between them and the genuine. F. A. Land is living in the Bingham house. Ripe peaches here since July 2nd. July 10th. Garden Grove Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The Fourth is past, and things generally have returned to their normal state of quietude. The larger portion of the residents of Garden Grove went to Westminster, and one and all seemed to thoroughly enjoy the day. Many have said that it was one of the pleasantest and most satisfying days of their lives. Too much credit cannot be given to the committee of arrangements for the energy and thoughtful care given to the details for the enjoyment of all. The committee seemed to have the full sympathy and co-operation of all the residents. Teams have commenced hauling the lumber for the church and it is expected that the work of erecting it will be begun in a few days. It is supposed that it will be completed by the 10th of September. Messrs. Chaffee and Hitchcock have been investing in cows, and a cheese factory will be commenced next week. In fact a portion of the lumber is now on the ground. The factory will not be as extensive as at first anticipated, but it is expected that next year additions will be made sufficient to enable the proprietors to use the milk of several hundred cows. The school election resulted in the choice of J. D. Chaffee as trustee for three years and P. Henderson for one year, vice Milton Teel, resigned. The roads between Garden Grove and Anaheim by the way of the depot are becoming very dusty and full of holes. If the road overseer would cover them with straw, which is so plentiful, he would be gratefully remembered by all travelers. As many people go into Anaheim from this section as from any other, yet the road overseer for Anaheim district has done no work at all on the mile of road south of the Fairview school house. That is about as bad a mile of road as there is in this section of country, but a little work with a shovel and a few loads of straw would make it a good road. Orange Items.

Benton, the squirrel exterminator. Benton went to Buell, and telling him how expert he was, offered to rid him of the little pests at the rate of ten cents an acre. Buell pooh-poohed the idea of being taking in in such a shallow way, and offered Benton four cents apiece for all squirrels brought to his house. Benton told him it would cost him a great deal more in that way, and repeatedly urged him to accept the offer of ten cents per acre. The more he explained, the more Buell was convinced it was a swindle, and insisted upon paying four cents apiece. Giving up arguments at last, Benton started in on a Monday, and after two days' work, by agreement carried the squirrels to Buell's house. Four great wagon loads there were of stinking squirrels, and five hundred dollars was the price asked for them. As the dead animals were dumped out near the house, Buell came out to see what was the matter. He could hardly believe his eyes, but had less doubt about his nose, for he was moved to hold it between his fingers as he gazed upon the pile before him. First ordering the offensive mass to be carried away again, he sadly pulled out his check book and paid the five hundred dollars like a man.—Santa Barbara Press. A correspondent of the American Manufacturer says: “The United States Rolling Stock Company, at their shops in Chicago, are getting up what may be called a new departure. This is a palace dry goods car, to be used on railroads by dealers in dry goods, carrying samples along as well as stock to be delivered when sold. The car is 60 feet long, not including platforms at each end, or 70 feet long over all. It is built as light as possible and yet is strong. The construction of the body is very simple, having only two large windows on each side for lighting purposes, but at each end there is to be a state-room for the traveling merchant to occupy nights or days while on the roada. These state-rooms are lighted by three windows each. The inside of the car was not finished for use, so we cannot tell just now it is arranged, but no doubt convenient for the pur- Orange Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. A good many of the people of Orange are enjoying the temperance lectures of Mr. Alen at Santa Ana. The Sunday School Concert will take place on Sunday evening at the M.E. Church at 8 o'clock. All are invited. W. L. Oge has been heard from at San Francisco. Wanted to know—who left that can of excellent honey at the parsonage? Miss Fannie Lockhart has returned from Los Angeles. Mr. Collins has completed a neat residence near Mr. Tiebout's. Mr. Padgett and family will be permanent residents of Orange. Mr. Pingry expects to return to Boston, his eastern home. Rev. Mr. Young preached in the M. E. Church last Sunday. Partial list of the programme for Sunday evening: Class No. 1 will be represented by Mrs. E. Lockwood; No. 2 by Mr. J. H. Parker; No. 3, James Hodes and Edward Canfield; No. 4, Fannie Shafer and Clara Lockwood. The infant classes, taught by Mrs. Beach and Mrs. Blasdale, will be well represented by recitations and songs. The teachers will be represented by Mr. Blasdale, and the officers by Mr. Bathgate. The whole is to be salted and peppered with songs. If we should make a miner's claim center, and take measurement reaching five miles on all sides, you could count four Fourth of July celebrations—at Anaheim, Westminster, Santa Ana and Burwell Point. It is claimed that four thousand people were present at the four places of meeting, an average of one thousand at each place. Who can say that our people are not loyal? The Census Marshal reports 230 children between the ages of five and seventeen in this (Richland) school district. Col. Travis has completed his count of orange and lemon trees planted and growing in orchard form, taking this school district for a limit. Number of orange trees, 83,150; lemon trees, 1400. Mr. Travis has taken great pains to have this count correct; it comes from good authority, and can be relied upon. Six years ago this summer the first trees of these enumerated were planted by N.D. Harwood. The trees are generally healthy, growing well, and are of a choice variety. Quite a number are already in bearing. Every day, week, month, or year will aid numbers to this count. The future prospects and business attending this interest are surely flattering. In ten years from this time these orange groves will be a rich thing to look upon, and all who can and will stay with it must reap the benefit. The bee-keepers are jubilant over this fine warm weather. The busy bees are rolling in the sweet honey, making it lively for all who have them in charge. Mr. Hamilton came down on the Fourth with a heavy load of nice comb honey, and will be down with more in a few days. He ships it to San Diego. Orange Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE.

Anaheim Literary Society. The Society met on Thursday evening in Magnolia Hall. Mr. J. M. Guinn read a lengthy criticism on the exercises of the previous meeting. Otto des Granges declaimed "Rienzi's Address to the Romans." Mr. Grimshaw gave a select reading. The question, Resolved, That the career of Napoleon Bonaparte was beneficial to France, was discussed by Messra. Guinn, Mitchell, and Beebe affirmatively, and by Messra, McFadden, Mendelson, and Cahill negatively. The committee to decide on the merits of the debate decided in favor of the affirmative. A laughable farce entitled The Fourth of July, was acted by Messra. Fish, Hanna, Shafer, Ferguson, and McKinnie. Messra. Addison P. Dyer and Homer Cartwright were elected members of the society. The following programme was adopted for the next meeting: Question for discussion: Resolved, that the signs of the times indicate returning prosperity. Affirmative—Montgomery, Payne, Hanna; negative—Athearn, Grimshaw, Shafer. Declamations or dialogues by Ad. Dyer, H. Cartwright, Fred C. McKinnie, J. D. Fish. It is evident from the large and attentive audiences that attend its weekly meetings that the Society has regained its former popularity. It is very gratifying to the faithful few who stood by the Society when the public had lost interest in its meetings and ceased to attend them, to see their efforts to sustain and build it up at last rewarded with success. And it is equally gratifying to see some former members who deserted it in its dark days, now returning to it in the hour of its prosperity, anxious and willing to take part in the exercise.

CALIFORNIA Livery and Feed STABLES, LEMON STREET, ANAHEIM D. R. PAYNE, Manager. To the Public. ON THE TWENTY-THIRD OF LAST APRIL I had the misfortune to fall from the roof of the Episcopal Church, where I was at work, and I was injured quite severely. For several long weeks I was confined to my house, and upon my first attempt to pursue my trade—that of Carpenter—I overtaxed my strength and suffered a relapse. My physician now informs me that it is impossible for me, because of my injury, ever to resume the occupation which I have followed nearly all my life. Accordingly, I must resume the trade I first learned, and which I followed for four years, viz., that of Barber, Hair-dresser, and Wig-maker. I have leased for a term the establishment of Prof. Dean, and have succeeded to his business. I respectfully ask the patronage of my friends in my new business, and in doing so I take the opportunity to add that I feel deeply grateful for the extreme liberality and patronage recorded me when pursuing the calling I am now forced to abandon. In addition to the harbor business I will continue that of sexton and undertaker. In the latter capacity I will keep on hand as fine a stock as herefore. I desire to call especial attention to the fact that I have been appointed sole agent for the White Bronze Monuments, the best and cheapest graveyard ornament now made. I have a be ok showing designs and prices, and have also a sample of the material, which I will take pleasure in showing to all who may desire. D. K. WILLIAMS Administrator's Sale.
