Mr. Ed Dunham, while out hunting on Monday afternoon, killed 42 black birds at one shot. Mr. Fred Fischer killed a monstrous pelican, measuring 9 feet from the tips of its wings. They report ducks in large numbers in the region of the Bolsa Chica. In the case of the People vs. Taylor, Justice Bailey held the defendant to appear before the Grand Jury, and fixed the bonds at $500. These were given, with B. F. E. Kellogg and David Evey as sureties. The charge is embezzlement, and the complaining witness is Wm. Crowther. The ball of the Fairview Recreation Club is "off," and instead, a "social ball" will be given on the evening of November 8th, at the Grange Hall. The following gentlemen compose the invitation committee: H. C. Kellogg, T. L. Chapin, T. W. Cook, G. M. Duncan, F. P. Marsh, G. A. Greeley. The Magnolia Social Club give a ball tomorrow night at their hall. The probabilities are that the attendance will be greatly in excess of former parties, fifty tickets having been sold up to yesterday afternoon. An excellent band has been engaged, and nothing has been left undone to secure an evening of unalloyed enjoyment. Mr. Helmson, who keeps the store on Centre street, opposite Kroeger's Hall, informs us that he has received some of the choicest delicacies to be found in the San Francisco markets—sour eels, limburger cheese and California herrings being among the most toothsome of the viands. The hot winds peculiar to this country, and which we have come to regard as no respecter of persons or places, really seem to treat Anaheim with distinguished consideration. On Monday it was blowing severely in Santa Ana and at other points south and east of us all day, but not a breath reached Anaheim until late in the evening. Loud and discordant noises issued from the Chinese quarters on Monday, indicating either the progress of a row or the performance of some religious ceremony. It is impossible for an outside barbarian to tell whether the Chinese are praying or fighting whenever an unusual commotion is observed in their quarters. They gesticulate as wildly and talk as loudly in one case as the other. The frequency of people to ask whetles to punish anyone wishing malice, is the cause of A Los Angles following section Every person needs own woods, or negotiable fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500, or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire, any woods, praising any lands, is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanance prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanence prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanence prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanence prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanence prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praising any lands，is guilty As a misdemeanence prisonment not excused a fine of $500,$ or because fire，any woods，praISING it rich Some located by Mr.Fr From Mr.J.E., we learn the particular rage at that place DeVere,a very estimated some time during a jarring noise,s as up the steps leading herself and child However,s she fell in voluntarily soon after her arms,hers hand face and whiskers o al alarm,and the man persuaded herself ta nightmare,and no realize that she seemed on the floor near t chloroform,the which in his hasty flight.T Of the precipitate rea An effort will be m party,and make his attempted crime.Had immunity from and its people are o effort to prevent n fraction of law and We had a call Geirder of this local townsmen,i s eng mine,s situated two Gabriel canyon,and by a broad wagon r Geirder and his assoc poorest rock from t ed,d with the result silver.This has mu ticularly as the rock the surface,and th upon the lode,t wh being a true vein,t ship it to San Francisco They are hard work strike it rich.Some located by Mr.Fr GEORGE BAUER, BOOT AND SHOE MAKER, Los Angeles Street.

This trap was invented under the pressure of necessity. Mr. Ronan's garden was being ravaged by gophers, and none of the traps in common use seemed to be a match for the rodents. Mr. Ronan is a blacksmith, and a combination of his mechanical skill and inventive genius produced a trap which is said to be superior to any yet made. We are indebted to Mr. Ronan for a trap, and shall test it at the first opportunity. —The business of shipping pampas plumes to the East has been carried on extensively this year, and with great profit to the shippers. Mr. Joseph Sexton of Santa Barbara, a relative of Mr. Fish'of Anaheim, sold 40,000 plumes this year in San Francisco and Eastern cities, principally Chicago. The plumes sold readily in the Eastern market for fifteen cents each, and Mr. Sexton realized the snug sum of $4,000 from his novel venture. We are afraid that if this item gets general circulation the market will be overstocked with plumes next year. —Mr. Hitchcock, proprietor of the cheese factory at Garden Grove, made a pleasant call at this office on Monday. He has great hopes that next year the factory will be employed to its full capacity, as the people are taking kindly to it and are beginning to see the convenience and profit which accrues to them by having such an institution in their midst.

For the last two nights our people have had an opportunity of admiring one of the largest fires which has ever been seen in this county. Standing on some "coign of vantage," a continuous belt of fire could be seen for a distance of eight miles or more. The driver of the Silverado stage reported last night that the fire was burning fiercely in the Santiago and Shrewsbury canyons. Much valuable feed is being destroyed, and it will only be when the flames have nothing further to feed upon that they will die out. No human effort could stay their progress. Mr. E. F. Cahill, who was at Tustin City yesterday, says that the fire burnt clean across the San Joaquin Rancho from the small canyon where it originated until it met the strip which was burned some four or five weeks ago, and then died out, having nothing further to feed upon. The amount of feed consumed cannot yet be estimated, but it must be something immense. We have not as yet heard of any disasters to bee ranches, but it is scarcely possible that all have escaped destruction. The frequency of fires this year has led people to ask whether there is not some law to punish anyone who, through carelessness or malice, is the cause of a disastrous conflagration. A Los Angeles contemporary quotes the following section of the Code: Every person negligently setting fire to his own woods, or negligently suffering any fire to extend beyond his own land, is liable in treble damages to the party injured. This provides for civil prosecution, but criminal proceedings may also be brought against the offender in accordance with the provisions of section 3394. THE PROPOSED PROGRAMME The Affairs of the Anaheim Water Co.-Why "Outsiders" should help the Company. EDITOR GAZETTE.—As the water question is of such a paramount importance to Anaheim, allow me to occupy a little space in your paper in discussing it. I understand from one of the Trustees that applications for water rights are so few and far between that the Board of Trustees think the steps taken and offers made are not rightly understood. I informed myself, therefore, at headquarters, and will let your readers know what I found out. To avoid future lawsuits, and to prevent the repetition of the last two years of drought in Anaheim, it was thought best to join the Cajon Irrigating Company's canal for two reasons. The first vis that this canal takes its water from the very use possible point on the river; and the second is that all the water being taken from the river before it sinks in the sand, is kept in one canal, which is built in good substantial ground, and thus makes it possible to irrigate double or triple the amount which could be done if two or three ditches take their water, each independent of the other, direct from the river. Besides the great loss in water, this leads certainly to lawsuits, as everybody wants to fill his own ditch first; and Anaheim, having the lowest ditch on the right bank of the river, would have to fight continually the upper ditches on the right and also the left bank. The price agreed upon was $20,000 for half an interest in the main ditch, from the NEW YORK FASHIONS. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. A costume recently devised by Worth for Mme. Marie Roze, is of pale lavender silk. The corsage is low and strictly speaking, there are no sleeves. A slight fringing of lace falls over the arm, and this by courtesy we will call a sleeve. It is made tight fitting round basque, having a row of point lace around the neck; the skirt is without trimming except a narrow row of knife plaiting around the lower edge, and falls plainly in heavy court train at the back. But the chief beauty of this toilette is in the exquisite lace over-dress which is draped in truly artistic style, and carelessly caught on either side by a boquet of pink roses and leaves, one of which is placed high up, the other quite low upon the train. Another lovely toilette is pink satin combined with the new corduroy velvet of similar shade. The dress is cut in one throughout, corsage low, sleeves extremely short, and full court train. Over all is spread what seems a fairy frost work of white jet, set in lace like pattern. A third handsome toilette is wine colored Moire antique combined with black velvet and fringe. As you will see by this, Moire antique has come up again; so if you have any of such fabric stowed away, now is the time to bring it out. Possibly, however, the color (if it be colored) may not be a fashionable shade. This indeed, would be a serious drawback; so if you doubt, enclose me a sample, and I will give you my opinion. Old brocades, or rather new brocades resembling old ones, are now brought The frequency of fires this year has led people to ask whether there is not some law to punish anyone who, through carelessness or malice, is the cause of a disastrous conflagration. A Los Angeles contemporary quotes the following section of the Code: Every person negligently setting fire to his own woods, or negligently suffering any fire to extend beyond his own land, is liable in treble damages to the party injured. This provides for civil prosecution, but criminal proceedings may also be brought against the offender in accordance with the provisions of section 3384: Any person who willfully or negligently sets on fire, or causes or procures to be set on fire, any woods, prairies, grasses, or grain, on any lands, is guilty of a misdemeanor. As a misdemeanor is punishable by imprisonment not exceeding six months, or by a fine of $500, or both, it will be seen that the energetic prosecution of a few of the offending parties would lead hunters and campers to exercise a little more care with their camp fires—the cause to which is ascribed the most of these conflagrations. —From Mr. J. E. Preston, of Westminster, we learn the particulars of an attempted outrage at that place on Friday night. Mrs. DeVere, a very estimable lady, was awakened some time during the night mentioned by a jarring noise, as if some one was coming up the steps leading to the room occupied by herself and child. Not hearing it repeated, however, she fell into a dose, but awoke involuntarily soon after and in throwing up her arms, her hand came in contact with the face and whiskers of a man. She gave a loud alarm, and the man bolted. Even then she persuaded herself that she was the victim of a nightmare, and not until morning did she realize that the scene had been real. Lying on the floor near the bed was a bottle of chloroform, which the intruder had dropped in his hasty flight. There were other evidences of the precipitate retreat of the scoundrel. An effort will be made to trace the guilty party, and make him pay the penalty of his attempted crime. Westminster has always had immunity from every class of outlawry, and its people are determined to use every effort to prevent a repetition of this first infraction of law and order. —We had a call this week from Mr. L. M. Grider of this locality, who with five a other townsmen, is engaged in working silver mine, situated two miles up the main San Gabriel canyon, and which can be reached by a broad wagon road up the canyon. Mr. Grider and his associates selected some of the poorest rock from the mine and had it assayed, with the result of $50 to $75 per ton in silver. This has much encouraged them, particularly as the rock tested came from near the surface, and they will now sink down upon the lode, which gives indications of being a true vein, take out a ton of rock, ship it to San Francisco and have it worked. They are hard workers and we hope will strike it rich. Some tin ore, from a claim located by Mr. Frank Matthews, of this which is built in good substantial ground, and thus makes it possible to irrigate double or triple the amount which could be done if two or three ditches take their water, each independent of the other, direct from the river. Besides the great loss in water, this leads certainly to lawsuits, as everybody wants to fill his own ditch first; and Anaheim, having the lowest ditch on the right bank of the river, would have to fight continually the upper ditches on the right and also the left bank. The price agreed upon was $20,000 for half an interest in the main ditch, from the river to the western boundary of Shanklin's land, where the distributing ditches shall begin. From this point Anaheim must make a connecting ditch of about three or four miles long through the land of Mr. D. Kraemer, who generously offers free passage. It is intended to take the connecting ditch to a place where there is a splendid opportunity for making a reservoir capable of holding several millions of cubic feet of water, which in course of time would be of great help in summer time to keep the ditch full. The price of this connecting ditch is estimated at three or four thousand dollars. Now comes the great question: Where shall the money come from to pay all these large sums? I say large sums, because I know how embarassed are many of the land owners, who must use water. The sum total would be considered a very small affair in the mines, or the Tulare valley, where ditches are built which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars; but there great land-owners or great corporations build the ditches, and spend their money intending to make a good thing out of it. Perhaps if a few rich individuals could get hold of our water right and water ditches, they would gladly take them and the money would be immediately available; but what would become of those using the water? I will not answer this question, as everybody knows it. I understand from the trustees that the plan is as follows: The Anaheim Water Co.-incorporated and made the number of shares 3000, of one acre each, instead of 50 shares of 20 acres each, and raised the capital stock from $50,000 to $90,000, of which about $30,000 are paid in already. The trustees will for the present offer only 2000 shares. If the future shows that the water is enough for 3000, then the remaining 1000 will be for sale. I understand that the Trustees, to solve this question, of where the money is to come from, will only levy from three to four dollar assessments on each share, borrow the money necessary until the next Legislature meets; then apply for authority to issue bonds, which undoubtedly will sell at par, as the investment is a safe one. I learned furthermore that the trustees made the very liberal offer that all new lands for which shares are bought shall pay only the regular assessments and no extra fee for right of way, which was heretofore three dollars for each and every acre. This offer I understand holds good for one year. The old members of the Anaheim Water Company had formerly alone spread what seems a fair frost work of white jet, set in lace like pattern. A third handsome toilette is wine colored Moire antique combined with black velvet and fringe. As you will see by this, Moire antique has come up again; so if you have any of such fabric stowed away, now is the time to bring it out. Possibly, however, the color (if it be colored) may not be a fashionable shade. This indeed, would be a serious drawback; so if you doubt, enclose me a sample, and I will give you my opinion. Old brocades, or rather new brocades resembling old ones are now brought out, and here also you may find something which can be utilized. SHORT COSTUMES. The inevitable kilt skirt is inevitable no longer, for now we sometimes see short costumes made with plain skirt, overskirt above, and only a narrow gathered or plaited flounce on the lower edge. The reason for such innovation is that heavy winter materials do not admit of prolonged plaitings. They would be too heavy, and besides we have so much of kilt plaited skirts that may be we are getting a little tired of them. A pretty model, the "Lenora," is partly kilt plaited, and partly not; the back being devised in such style, while the front is ornamented with bows, showing only a narrow plaiting around the lower edge. The overskirt, of course, is worn, but the Cecilia basque is pretty in combination. The Isonde Visite is a stylish out door garment for early Fall or Winter; and as horseback riding is now very fashionable owing to the present rage for fox hunting, the Park Riding Habit may be mentioned as having been recently introduced. The Muriel overskirt is pretty when worn with a demi-trained skirt. SHOES AND GLOVES. For the reason that short costumes are in reality what they profess to be—that is to say really short—the foot becomes an object of consideration, and this apart from the fact that hosiery is now, as indeed it has been for some time past, so very pretty, that it would seem quite wicked to hide it. So for doors: we find the changes rung on all manner of open styles, showing straps across, although quite recently, such beautiful boots have been brought out in brocaded silk that if they are worn, the stocking becomes a minor consideration. For out door wear, plain high buttoned kid or cloth top boots are appropriate, but kid stamped in imitation of basket or annure cloth are the latest idea. Gloves are long on the wrist, and are either heavy stitched, boquet embroidered, or delicately stitched in self color; one style is as fashionable as the other. Colors are either dark approaching the invisible, very pale, or in medium shades of wood color or gray, but bright or positive colors of any kind are studiously avoided. For evening or full dress the Harvis Trevost side buttoned glove continues to be the leading style, while for visiting and many-dress occasions the Harvis Seamless is the most elegant. Costumes are no resemblance to consular severely south and nothing other. Gabriel canyon, and which can be reached by a broad wagon road up the canyon. Mr. Grider and his associates selected some of the poorest rock from the mine and had it assayed, with the result of $50 to $75 per ton in silver. This has much encouraged them, particularly as the rock tested came from near the surface, and they will now sink down upon the lode, which gives indications of being a true vein, take out a ton of rock, ship it to San Francisco and have it worked. They are hard workers and we hope will strike it rich. Some tin ore, from a claim located by Mr. Frank Matthews, of this place, has been sent to San Francisco to be assayed. A large number of men are in the canyon, engaged in opening up claims and prospecting. Many of our citizens are interested in claims in the canyon. The Winston mine is being worked and is turning out rich. —Downey Courier. Our readers should weigh well the words of the correspondent who addresses them through our columns this morning in regard to the affairs of the Anaheim Water Company. There is one point, however, which it is well to lay some stress upon, and that is the desirability of paying the assessments as they become due, and not allowing them to accumulate until they reach a formidable sum. "Outsiders," so called, are permitted to become stockholders by simply paying the assessments. By paying each assessment of 50 cents per acre as it is levied, they will hardly feel the drain, but if they defer payment for months they will find that the amount has reached a figure that will in the majority of cases be inconvenient to pay. The assessment last levied becomes delinquent to-day. People who go out of Anaheim to purchase harness or saddles make a grand and costly mistake. Our local harness maker, Mr. Warling, is a thorough workman, and will sell his wares as cheap as they can be got anywhere. In point of finish and durability his harness is superior to that generally offered for sale, as he gives his personal attention to all work made in his shop. Mr. C. B. Polhemus, of the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company, is in town. In company with Mr. Olden he went on a tour of inspection along the Cajon ditch yesterday. Paris, October 19.—Minister Noyes has forwarded $4,000 for the relief of the yellow fever sufferers. Gloves are long on the wrist, and are either heavy stitched, boquet embroidered, or delicately stitched in self color; one style is as fashionable as the other. Colors are either dark approaching the invisible, very pale, or in medium shades of wood color or gray, but bright or positive colors of any kind are studiously avoided. For evening or full dress the Harvis Trevost side buttoned glove continues to be the leading style, while for visiting and many-dress occasions the Harvis Seamless is the most elegant. Costing somewhat less, we find the Victoria and Donna Maria which are much liked by judicious purchasers. TRIMMINGS. Combinations of two or more materials are fashionable, and this affords much variety in trimming, but, as hitherto, the plain material is often laid in fine knife plaitings. Then we have fringes of all degrees. Choice fringes are united with finely cut jet, and are composed of silk twist, chenille, and crimped silk tape. Showy fringes are laden more or less heavily with gilt; laminee fringes are curiously pressed by means of hot irons, so as to produce a glittering effect, and not frequently, different styles are interwoven with each other so as to give additional variety. Passementerie is as differently wrought as fringes, and is used as headings, or laid in perpendicular rows down the seams of handsome out door garments. As for buttons, their name is Legion, and I could not tell you half the styles shown. Crocheted buttons are seen, but choice is also given among buffalo horn tinted and in the natural color, pearl, imitation and real tortoise shell, jet, steel, gilt, silver, and Chinese and Japanese laquer work. New ribbons are so beautiful and novel in design that they are in great favor not only because a graceful finish, but because by reason of their varied colors, they give opportunity for introducing some fine effects in the way of color. For we must remember that ribbons are often not only double but quadruple faced, to say nothing of the many-hued brocade, embossed, and gaily flowered ribbons. Mrs. C. G.

A reduction of the salaries of all State officers of at least 25 per cent., and that all fees should be accounted for as public money. 2. That the salaries of State officers should be fixed in the Constitution, giving the Legislature the power to lower but in no case to increase the salaries. 3.

"I have to confess," said a Delaware fruit-grower, when hard pressed by a reporter, "that the peach crop has not been frost-bitten or killed by the dry weather this year——" "And the crop will aggregate 1,000,000 baskets, won't it?" "Well, I don't know——" "Oh, yes, it will be 1,000,000 baskets; everybody says so. I can't put it any lower. Immense—eh, farmer?" "Well, I'm a little dubious——" "Prices will be way down, won't they? Big crop, you know. Dead loads of money in it. Market ought to be lower than it ever was before." "Well, now, I can't see——" "Trees all loaded to the quards," said the reporter, looking around over the orchard. "Beautiful sight; never saw anything to equal it. I've lived in Delaware for twenty years. Just so all over the State, too. Never saw anything like it in all my born days." "Well, we don't know what may happen——" "Crop's out of danger now, ain't it? Be all gathered and sold long before frost, you know; wet weather will only make the fruit larger, and a dry spell would add to its flavor and color." 7. That the right of franchise should be given to women. 8. That a residence in the State one year, county 90 days, and election district 30 days shall be necessary to entitle a citizen of the United States to vote. 9. That suffrage is a duty of citizenship and should be enforced by proper legislation. 10. Equal taxation of all farming lands of equal producing capacity, when similarly situated. 11. In favor of making a local option law constitutional. 12. In favor of a compulsory education law. 13. That the Supervisors of each or any county should be empowered to adopt rules to suppress the squirrel nuisance. 14. That the Judicial and general elections shall be held on the same day. 15. That the Legislature should commence on the second Monday in January, and its sessions to be limited to 60 days. 16. That all bills should be read twice, section by section, and yeas and noes called on their final passage. Provided, that two readings of a bill shall not take place on the same day. 17. That any person selling or purchasing votes, or who violates a position of public trust by defalcation or otherwise, should upon conviction thereof, be forever disfranchised, and shall be treated as a felon. 18. That all questions submitted to Supreme and District Courts shall be decided within six months. 19. That power shall be given the Legislature to establish a reformatory farm. 20. In favor of the speedy construction of the Texas and Pacific railway. 21. That none but those who pay a property tax should be allowed to vote at an election to levy special taxes, except taxes for school purposes. 22. In favor of limiting the debt-creating and money-appropriating power of Supervisors. 23. That the right of eminent domain shall not be abridged so as to prevent legislative action in reference to property and franchises of individuals and corporations. 24. That railways shall be declared public highways, and the Legislature shall have the right to regulate fare and freights. The Grange expresses its opposition to the following measures: 1. To class or special legislation. 2. To the consolidation of the several funds, which were designated for various purposes, and that fund placed under the control of the Regent of the University. 3. Opposed to the further immigration of Chinese. 4. Opposed to taxing growing crops. 5. No State officer shall be interested in any contract for supplies furnished the State. Colonization. J. M. Soto, of Santa Rita, who is a very enterprising person, announces that he wants colonists for a very large body of choice land between Los Angeles and that he will give Trees all loaded to the guards," said the reporter, looking around over the orchard. "Beautiful sight; never saw anything to equal it. I've lived in Delaware for twenty years. Just so all over the State, too. Never saw anything like it in all my born days." "Well, we don't know what may happen——" "Crop's out of danger now, ain't it? Be all gathered and sold long before frost, you know; wet weather will only make the fruit larger, and a dry spell would add to its flavor and color." "Well, but——" "Of course you don't apprehend trouble from grasshoppers; no grasshoppers, you know, within a thousand miles of Delaware." "Yes, but——" The reporter made ready to note it down. "Well, if you must have it," yelled the farmer, "look at the doggoned trees! Look at 'em! They're so blamed full that you can't tell what minute they'll smash right down flat on the ground and leave you without a peach this side the grave." Singular Subsidence of Ground The Gazette d'Italia recounts a somewhat remarkable change in the surface of the earth at the village of Otagli, a short distance south-east of Florence. In the course of a few days the tract on which the village stands has gradually sunk, until the depression amounts to about 15 feet. It has not been sufficiently regular to prevent the houses from making threatening divergences from the perpendicular, and the population has taken refuge in the field. Strange to say, another tract of land about 200 yards from the village is, on the contrary, gradually rising, at times nearly rapid enough to be noticed with the eye. Several Italian savants are on the ground studying the strange phenomenon. — Nature. — Charles Cunningham lodged a complaint in Judge Athearn's court against William Williams, charging him with shooting one of his (Cunningham's) horses in Shrewsbury canyon. A warrant for Williams' arrest was made out and the case will come up in a day or two. Colonization. J. M. Soto, of Santa Rita, who is a very enterprising person, announces that he wants colonists for a very large body of choice land below Los Angeles, and that he will give them the most liberal inducements. — Monterey Democrat. The above is an allusion to Santa Margarita and Los Flores, arrangements having been made with Mr. Soto to colonize them with agriculturists, as we are told. In a letter which we have seen and read from Mr. Soto, the information is given that some good farmers are on the way to that location, though it is not stated where they have been residing. But the whole thing is new to us, we not having heard before of such a movement. — San Diego News. Glasgow, Oct. 21. — The Directors of the City of Glasgow Bank, arrested on a charge of fraud, have been remanded until to-morrow. Of the Directors W. E. Taylor is ex-Town Collector of Glasgow, member of the School Board and partner in a large grain dealing firm in the west of Scotland; Ingles is a landed proprietor in East Scotland; Louis Potter is a member of a large shipping firm in Glasgow; Wright is a member of an East Indian firm in London and Glasgow; Robert Salmond was manager of City of Glasgow Bank when it stopped in 1857; Stewart is an Edinburgh merchant. The arrests created a great sensation but meet with general approval. San Francisco, October 18. — Representative Luttrell received the information from the Postoffice Department this morning by telegraph that an ocean service will be immediately ordered on the coast routes between San Francisco and Crescent City north, and all intervening ports, and San Diego and intermediate ports south.
