They contemplate if Mr. M. goes into business here, to rent one of the Gospel Swamp pumpkins for a residence. Mr. Brown, the R. R. Agent, informs us that the Black Star Coal Mine Co. has made arrangements to ship their coal by rail from this point. [Mr. Brown must have been misunderstood by our correspondent. The Black Star Company have made no such arrangement, never for a moment contemplated such a thing, and never gave Mr. Brown or anybody else occasion to suppose that they would deviate from their established rule of shipping their coal from Anaheim depot. Messrs. Seibert and Witte characterize Mr. Brown's statement as absurd and untrue. —Ed. GAZETTE.] Every other man you meet in and about Santa Ana has a test-tube, a piece of ore and a magnifying glass for examining ores (they don't need any for their imaginations) in their hands showing every person they meet the different bonanzaa they have struck; and the best part of it is, they (the bonanzas) are all rich. Apropos of the above, one of our local assayers of great prominence assayed a piece of ore and found that it contained over thirty per cent.of tin. A piece of the same ore was sent to a chemist in the northern part of the State, who made an assay, and found $4.50 in silver to the ton and not a trace of tin! The Republicans here are jubilant over the fact that the soiled banner of Democracy and the red flag of the commune were trailed in the dust at the late elections in the East and they justly think that it means that victory will perch, in 1880, on the bright, unsmirched pennant of the Republican party. The Fashion Hospital wards are nearly full. Frazer Sallee, aged ten and a half years, met with a dangerous accident last week; his thigh was fractured just above the knee and the upper piece of bone was forced through the flesh, six inches at least from its proper place. We are informed that since the McFadden Bros. have sold out, they will clerk for Mr. W.B.Hall, the grocery man. The Newport debating club is settling all of the important questions of the day at their weekly meetings. Mr. Wm. Williams of Gospel Swamp, who has been in Arizona and New Mexico for the last three years, is on his way home, so he has written to his friends. The Los Angeles County Medical Society Westminster.

The ball at the Grange Hall on Friday of last week was very well attended, and enjoyment reigned supreme. The receipts more than paid expenses, and much credit is due the management for the perfection of their arrangements. Rev. E. Halliday will preach in the Presbyterian Church to-morrow at the usual hours. Subjects: Morning, "Faith amid the storms of life;" evening, "Constraining love." All are cordially invited to attend. Lecture and prayer meeting every Wednesday evening at 7:30. All other sweet potatoes can now take a back seat. Mr. R. P. Waite of Arlington has presented us with a swee, potato or yam, grown on his ranch, weighing just think of it! eleven pounds and a half. California, from the summit of that tuber, calmly surveys the adjacent States and Territories, and superciliously asks, "Who can beat it?" Riverside Press. Why, bless you, Anaheim can. With the greatest of ease, too. Mr. Ferdon has barl's of sweet potatoes, many of which (the potatoes, not the bar'l's) weigh over twelve pounds. At the close of the lecture on Wednesday evening Rev. E. Halliday signified his acceptance of the call which the Presbyterian Church had unanimously tendered to him, and made some suggestions as to the best means of making the united life and labors of pastor and people a blessing to themselves and to the community around them. So far all is full of promise, and it is hoped the future will be as full of blessing. Some one, who is at present unknown, has for a week past been tampering with the fire truck. On the night of the fire the rope was so twisted and snarled up in the wheels that valuable time was lost in disentangling it. On Wednesday night the hooks were forced through the rings dependent from the ceiling of the truck house, and it needed the strength of several men to free them. We are requested to warn the malicious person who does these things that, if he is caught, the consequences will be exceedingly disastrous to him. He deserves, and will receive, the most severe punishment. Mr. W. E. Jennison, the gentleman whom we brought into undeserved prominence on Wednesday, made but a short stay in Silverado. It will be remembered that he and his wife, and a four-horse load of household furniture, left Anaheim on Tuesday for Silverado, intending to locate there. The natural supposition was that he had previously visited the place, inspected the mines, satisfied himself of their richness, and resolved that "it was good to be there." But it now appears that he had never been full. Frader Sallee, aged ten and a half years, met with a dangerous accident last week; his thigh was fractured just above the knee and the upper piece of bone was forced through the flesh, six inches at least from its proper place. We are informed that since the McFadden Bros. have sold out, they will clerk for Mr. W. B. Hall, the grocery man. The Newport debating club is settling all of the important questions of the day at their weekly meetings. Mr. Wm. Williams of Gospel Swamp, who has been in Arizona and New Mexico for the last three years, is on his way home, so he has written to his friends. The Los Angeles County Medical Society has been merged into the Good Templar organization. Dr. Jones has rented Dr. Gulick's old office in Watson's brick building. Haywood's tin shop is nearly completed, also the new boot and shoe shop on Main street. Santa Ana now supports three boots and shoes shops, two tailors, two meat markets, four saloons, three hotels and innumerable hash houses, three harness shops, four blacksmith and wagon shops, two barber shops, two livery stables, sixteen stores of different kinds, two weekly papers, seven doctors, four preachers and about one hundred and fifty bummers, which is a pretty good showing for a town that was nothing but a mustard patch seven years ago. A member of the legal fraternity here thinks that Judas Isacariot is a much traduced man and takes it upon himself to defend him from all comers. He thinks if the truth was but only known, that Judas was "hard up" for both grief and whiskey, and that it was nothing but human nature that a man's stomach should be always considered first—that the only way to reach a man's moral sense, any now is through the stomach. This has been proved from time immemorial, etc., etc. Previous to the late elections in the East many men of all parties thought they saw a splendid opportunity for the formation of a new party. Disintegration seemed to be threatening both the Republican and Democratic organizations and a "new deal" seemed to be an event of the near future. The voluble vituperative and malicious Kearney thought he saw the chance, but in his hot-headed eagerness to seize it, has already wrecked himself and his so-called party beyond the hope of redemption. His senseless, blasphemous and altogether disgusting harruges only mark him and those who endorse him as enemies to the good order and peace of the State and nation, and therefore, like rabid curs, liable to be stamped out of existence at the first exhibition of aggressive violence. Mr. Mosher of Knights City in the Sacramento Valley, has bought out Kimball's drug store on Fourth street. Mr. L. S. Robinson is seriously ill. There is a doctor over here says there's some things he can't understand. He says: "You attend a patient off and on for four or five years and never present any bill; you are the best fellow and the best doctor in the who-o-pole county. But just say you would like to have a little money on account, that patient suddenly discovers that you never did him any good, that your bill is exorbitant, anyhow; and if you can get the money before he does, why get it." We think it serves the doctor right to let such hoodlums run any bills. The farmers of this section are agitating the question of establishing a co-operative store in Santa Ana. A meeting will be held soon when initiatory steps will be taken in the matter. Bishop Mooser starts from here to Salt Lake in few days on a visit.

Jennison, the gentleman whom we brought into undeserved prominence on Wednesday, made but a short stay in Silverado. It will be remembered that he and his wife, and a four-horse load of household furniture, left Anaheim on Tuesday for Silverado, intending to locate there. The natural supposition was that he had previously visited the place, inspected the mines, satisfied himself of their richness, and resolved that "it was good to be there." But it now appears that he had never been in Silverado, but supposed from what he had heard that it was a mining town with a large population, and a brisk business place. It is impossible to tell what his imagination pictured it, but we have it from Mr. Paty that this experienced assayer took one look at the town and immediately insisted upon returning to Anaheim. His stay in Silverado comprised exactly eleven minutes and a quarter. He is now on his way to Arizona, but he has no idea what part of it he will fetch up at. But wherever he goes he will doubtless impress upon his hearers that Silverado is a delusion and a snare, and that the whole country is not worth the powder to blow it into the ocean. The fact that he hadn't been within half a mile of a mine, and that his only knowledge of the district was what he gathered in his eleven minutes' survey of the town, will be carefully suppressed.

The end of the season is at hand; and all are busy clearing up for a fresh start. The threshers are busy with their best stacks of barley; corn huskers are nearing the end of their jobs; cows are ranging through the cornfields, eating their way, and not grubbling at an occasional pumpkin overlooked by the pickers; clouds of smoke rise up from fields that the weeds have covered; hogs are fattening in their pens; apples are dropping from the trees; all things are seeking their appointed end. The only thing really stagnant is money. It seems to flow away like water running down hill, and no artesian stream of coin has yet been struck. Let us hope for better crops and better prices another year, or rather let us seek out the things that command the better prices and begin early for a good crop of them. There is a sharp demand for land to rent here, with none that we know of now offering. J. W. Clapp has rented Crowther's farm and Hollingsworth returns to Pasadena in a short time to look after his place there. Walton has rented Jesse Davis' upper farm. Thanksgiving is at hand. It would be a good thing for our three churches to unite that day, and the suggestion has been made that the officers should confer together. A series of temperance lectures has been delivered here, but as no public notice was given of them we did not hear of them until they were ended. The lecturer is spoken of as a fine orator and elocutionist. Somebody blundered in not making him known, and we might have had an item for you last week. While land renters are plenty, land buyers are too few for public convenience. We hope for a turn in the stream toward Oregon, and that our Southern California soil and climate will again be in request. Indications are favorable for us. R. S. Orange Items.

Williams and Baldwin, from San Jose, are here looking around for homes. They express themselves as being highly pleased with the country, and think the climate milder and more agreeable here than in San Jose. The discovery of the decomposed remains of the body of Albert Bermette, as supposed by the card found near the place of his discovery in the Santiago creek bed, or wash, will be reported to Dr. J. C. Hannon, Coroner. Mr. Travis has a fine new barn. A Virulent Opposition. The introduction of Black Star coal in Los Angeles has stirred up a fierce opposition to its use among the dealers of imported fuel — an opposition which manifests itself, we are sorry to say, in misrepresentations of the grossest kind. The following is an instance in point: The proper authorities were at one time contemplating the purchase of Anaheim coal for use in the county buildings. This having come to the knowledge of the dealer in imported coal, who has been enjoying a monopoly of the county trade, he represented to the officials that the Black Star Company was utterly unable to furnish the required quantity, that their vein was only a few inches thick and liable to pinch out at any moment, that it would not last half as long as Sydney coal, etc. His representations had the desired effect, and the county now pays $13.95 per ton for Sydney coal, while Anaheim coal can be purchased for $10 or $10.50 per ton. It is not claimed that Anaheim coal is equal to the best imported, but the difference in quality is not so great as the difference in price. As to quantity, there are one hundred tons stored in Los Angeles, and the management will give bonds to supply any quantity that may be needed. The popularization of this home fuel is only a question of time, and not all the efforts of those to whose interest it is to prevent its general use, will prevent that desirable consumption. Hotel Burned at Wilmington. A Los Angeles paper has the following particulars of the fire at Wilmington, by which the hotel, known as the Wilmington Exchange, was burned: About half past 12 o'clock Tuesday night, Dr. Johnson, who boarded at the house, was awakened by the smoke penetrating to his room. He got up and on going to the stairway, found it in flames. Meantime he had given the alarm and, there being no other mode of egress, a number of the boarders jumped from the second story to uncalled for at the Anaheim Postoffice: Miss Rosa Dale, Timothy Herrington, W.B.

One of the most ingenious inventions of the day is Mason's Musical Charts, by the use of which any one, even a child, can learn to play on piano or organ, in tolerable style, in one day; and no previous knowledge of music is necessary. It is being introduced by A.C.Morton, of Atlanta, Ga. Read his advertisement in our paper; it will fully satisfy you. We hope to see charts shortly introduced here. The Easiest Way To remedy pain in the joints or muscles; to cure a corn, bruise, sprain or tumor, is to apply Tanner's German Ointment to the affected part. It is astonishing how quickly the flesh is restored to a healing condition by this standard healing agent. Piles, affections of the kidneys, pain in the side, chest or shoulders, old sores and obstinate eruptions, are invariably cured by it. Catarrh may be arrested by snuffing it up the nose, and the danger of consumption, to which that affection gives rise, averted. Sold by all druggists. Terribly exhausting are the night sweats which accompany Consumption. But they, as well as the paroxysms of coughing, are invariably broken up by Dr. Wm.Hall's Balsam for The Lungs, which conquers the deadly malady, as well as bronchitis, pneumonia, pleurisy, asthma, diphtheria and all other affections of the throat, lungs and chest. It saves thousands from untimely graves and is invaluable in rescuing children from the croup, whooping cough and quinzy. It is sold by all druggists.

Edson Brothers is a well-known and successful firm of large experience, having been established since 1866. D. Nagle Desires to return his thanks to the public for the very general patronage which they have given him heretofore, and hopes that in the future he will receive the same generous support. He is constantly receiving fresh invoices of all kinds of men's and boys' boots and shoes, and also ladies', children's, and misses' wear. His long and practical experience in the business enables him to buy and sell cheaper than others not so well versed in the business. Also, custom work made to order on short notice. An invitation is extended to the public to inspect his stock: No trouble to show goods. A Row of Pearls Glistening through coral lips is certainly a pleasing object; but a row of discolored, bespecked teeth in any mouth at all is a grievous drawback; add to this that such a set of teeth is usually accompanied by impure GRAND Barbecue!

A Los Angeles paper has the following particulars of the fire at Wilmington, by which the hotel, known as the Wilmington Exchange, was burned: About half past 12 o'clock Tuesday night, Dr. Johnson, who boarded at the house, was awakened by the smoke penetrating to his room. He got up and on going to the stairway, found it in flames. Meantime he had given the alarm and, there being no other mode of egress, a number of the boarders jumped from the second story to the ground, by which several were injured. The firemen reached the scene as soon as possible and, while tool late to arrest the flames, they rendered effective aid in rescuing some persons from the burning building and in assisting those who had been hurt in jumping from the windows. James Easton, connected with the hotel, received internal injuries in jumping from the window. A man named Gallagher who was stupified by the smoke, was rescued from his room by the Messrs. Savage, in a fearfully burned condition, the flesh dropping from his shoulders while being pulled through the window. Mr. O. B. Adams, who was on a ladder outside assisting the Messrs. Savage, overpowered by smoke, fell to the ground and was severely though not fatally hurt. Jim and Aleck, two sailors from the shipping in the harbor, who were stopping at the hotel, seriously burned and badly jarred by the jump from the window. Charles Rue, lip badly cut by a fall in escaping from the building. D. Johnson, although he made a narrow escape himself, rendered every assistance to the injured, in which good office he was assisted by all the citizens. Indeed everybody we are informed were untiring in their efforts to alleviate the pains of the suffering. The two sailors and Gallagher were brought to the County Hospital, in Los Angeles, yesterday. The hotel, which was owned by Mr. Thompson, was insured for $2000 in the Liverpool and London and Globe. Mr. McMillen, who lost almost all his furniture, holds a policy for $1000, we understood.

Send for price lists. Nov13-1y Glistening through coral lips is certainly a pleasing object; but a row of discolored, bespecked teeth in any mouth at all is a grievous drawback; add to this that such a set of teeth is usually accompanied by impure breath and one can scarcely imagine anything more objectionable. SOZODONT, the great purifier of the breath and whitener of the teeth, obviates this state of the mouth completely, rescuing its dental occupants from destruction, and counteracting the influence upon the enamel of acid secretions in the mouth.
