WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...FEBRUARY 8, 1879. Church Meetings. First Presbyterian Church Regular Survival at 11 A.M., and 7:20 P.M. Sunday School 10 A.M. Meeting for practice in Congregational singing and for Bible study, on Wednesday at 7:20 P.M. Episcopal Church, Rev. A. D. L. Trew, Pastor Regular service every Sunday morning at 11 o'clock, Sunday school at 3 P.M. Afternoon services at 5:00 P.M. Windmill. The following guidelines are furnished to the Gazette by the Bank of Anselm. Stirrer—Buying, 1; selling, 2; Gazebacks—At per. Kleinigkeiten. One thousand dollars is wanted on real estate security. See advertisement. Look at the beautiful pig that embellishes Mr. Niles's advertisement. A copy of the delinquent county tax list can be seen at this office. Farmers wishing to plant Orchard wheat can purchase seed from Mr. John Gwin. He has a small quantity yet remaining. Another Captain Johnson has succeeded to the command of the steamer Orizaba vice Captain Johnson deceased. The subject of the Rev. Mr. Trew's sermon on Sunday will be "The Nature and Benefits of the Laying on of Hands, commonly called Confirmation." The Express says that Mr. J. K. Maxwell has weeded on his ranch below Compton two thousand acres in barley and fifteen hundred acres in wheat—a fair showing for one ranch. A marriage license was issued by the County Clerk on Wednesday to authorize the nuptials of a gentleman eighty years of age and a lady between sixty and seventy. On January 31st the following amount of money was in the County Treasury: Gold coin, $92,600; silver coin, $23,692.35. Total, $116,292.35. Mr. Goodman has in his possession a Spanish real, coined in 1758 during the reign Rev. Mr. Hill's Lecture. The lecture delivered by the Rev. W. H. Hill of Los Angeles on Thursday evening was worthy of a much larger attendance than that which was present. We should hail a large attendance at such lectures as a good indication of a taste for higher entertainment that that which negro instrels and terpsichorean gatherings afford, and we hope that the time will come when an overflowing hall will mark the intellectual appetite of our people. The lecturer began by vindicating his right as a clergyman to engage in the work of societies such as the Masonic order and the Odd Fellows. The Church of Christ is a great brotherhood, and has for one of its objects the amelioration of evil and relief of distress, but its members do not always do their duty, and distress still exists and cries for help. The benevolence of Oddfellowship and Masonry meets to a great extent the demand, and in working with these societies the minister of the Gospel is helping forward one great end of his ministry. In particularizing those two societies Mr. Hill paid a warm tribute to others, such as the Good Templars, etc., but said he would speak principally of those which he knew most immediately. The place and work of such societies was forcibly and eloquently exhibited in connexion with three leading points. 1st. The power of association in charitable and benevolent works. Individual charity needs channels through which to flow. It needs concentration and direction: otherwise much of its force is dissipated. The effect of association is to encourage and intensify the benevolence of the world. 2d. Their social effects. Differences of race, pursuits, religious creed and political opinions all tend to sever men into cliques and parties. Animosities and antagonisms arise and perpetuate the evil. The influence of such societies is to weld together differing elements and to soften down asperities. Striking illustrations of this proposition were adduced by the Reverend lecturer. 3d. Their influence in the conservation of existing institutions. Political considerations lie outside of the range of such societies, and loyalty to "the powers that be" is incultulated by all the principles of Masonry and Oddfellowship. Touching allusions to events garden Grove. Our boys feel somewhat the victory at baseball. The new irresponsible parties in Amherst remarks something like that they should not think that they would play with them further. The game passed off pleasing heim boys took their defiance and conducted themselves gentlemens they are. To-day (the 8th) our boys game here will nine from but it is understood that it best hine of the Orange thirtieth nine. We anticipate some spring among the baseball is being organized in Westminster. Dr. Gulick's lectures were tended as was expected. This was quite incidental. The leisurely and instructive nature of hunting birds quite new to cases very amusing. Much has been said about ferent localities. Here there ice and frost, and some trees Mr. Bessonett who lives abest west of the postoffice, says of his orange trees, but I come out again in the Spring Howe's place some of the trout but only the new growth, trimmed off the injured shoot would not know that they are my own place We could not tell of the frost except on the have now tuberoses in bloom. Much of the corn in West Swamp and Garden Grove burs who are able to hold it and who will not sell until the price, even if they have to wait until next July, or even once They have held their corn but it again. So the San Francisco can count at least one-third this portion of the State as on Letter from Savannah. EDITOR GAZETTE: As you wide circulation, I thought interest to the readers of them have a few items from the city as the people here call this Allow me first to attempt to tion, or location of Savannah eleven miles east of Los Angeles town from the town of Sawitt there are 20 houses (dwelling hotel kept by S. Bennett, large pork packet, and hawk has weeded on his ranch below Compton two thousand acres in barley and fifteen hundred acres in wheat—a fair showing for one ranch. A marriage license was issued by the County Clerk on Wednesday to authorize the nuptials of a gentleman eighty years of age and a lady between sixty and seventy. On January 31st the following amount of money was in the County Treasury: Gold coin, $92,600; silver coin, $23,692.35. Total, $116,292.35. Mr. Goodman has in his possession a Spanish real, coined in 1758 during the reign of Ferdinand VI. Although 121 years old it is well preserved and in good condition. We again urge upon the fruit growers to send samples of their oranges and lemons to the Riverside exhibition, per Mr. Olden. The fruit should be given to him on Monday or Tuesday. We learn that Mr. D. P. Quinn has planted sixteen acres of his farm this season on semi-tropical and northern fruit trees. He intends ultimately to plant the entire forty acres in trees. At Sespe, two hundred and twenty-five barrels of oil were pumped out of the well owned by the Los Angeles Oil Company, in twenty four hours. It yields steadily one hundred and twenty barrels every twenty-four hours. The staunch and reliable firm of Webster, Howe & Co. of Garden Grove advertise a price list of groceries and dry goods, by which it will be seen that their prices are down to "bed-rock." They are also agents for the Garden Grove cheese factory. Every one should encourage this industry, especially as the cheese is as good, if not better, than the imported article. We had the pleasure of a call from Mr. Wm. Niles of Los Angeles on Thursday afternoon. Mr. N's stay in town was a brief one, as he was on his way to Riverside, where he proposes to remain until after the Horticultural meeting. Mr. Niles is a very extensive breeder of poultry and pigs, and enjoys a large patronage. During the past week he has made shipments to Arizona and Northern California, which shows him to be a man of push and enterprise. Mr. H. McLellan, the Los Angeles agent of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, has gone East to make a trip around the Horn in the new vessel, State of California. For some time Mr. McLellan's health has been poor, and he hopes to improve it by the trip. The affairs of the Los Angeles office will be administered by his brother, Mr. Geo. F. McLellan, who is thoroughly conversant with all the details of the business. Attention is directed to the advertisement of Spear, Meade & Co. of San Francisco. The firm is one of the most reliable in Francisco, and all consignments entrusted to them will receive prompt and careful attention. It should be borne in mind that they handle grain and produce solely on race, pursuits, religious creed and political opinions all tend to sever men into cliques and parties. Animalsities and antagonisms arise and perpetuate the evil. The influence of such societies is to weld together differing elements and to soften down aspertices. Striking illustrations of this proposition were adduced by the Reverend lecturer. 3d. Their influence in the conservation of existing institutions. Political considerations lie outside of the range of such societies, and loyalty to "the powers that be" is incultured by all the principles of Masonry and Oddfellowship. Towching allusions to events in connexion with our civil war bore out the speaker's remarks, and he concluded with an eloquent appeal to his brother Masons and Odd Fellows to live up to the principles of their orders, and to see that no reproach could be cast on the societies by the unworthy lives or characters of any members. Orange Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Mr. D. M. Harwood has returned from San Jose where he has been spending several weeks, lookind after his wine interest. He has a large vineyard near the city, from the product of which he has recently sold and shipped about eight carloads of wine. The rain of last week continues to be a topic of conversation. It commenced on Tuesday and settled into a gentle and steady rain, continuing through the night and the greater part of the next day and raining in all about an inch of water. The weather came off clear and pleasant and the orchardists and farmers were busy plowing and improving their ranches until Sunday night last, when another rain set in, continuing until Tuesday noon and measuring nearly an inch. These rains have been very seasonable and have silenced all the crookers who so freely prognosticated another dry season. The Santa Ana Times informs its readers that Dr. Joslin of Orange has purchased a bee ranch in Trabuco Canyon. This is starting news to the Doctor, who says that his practice, drug store and orange orchard employ his full time. If the Times will substitute the name of Joplin for Joslin, he will be nearer the truth, as I am informed Mr. Joplin of Orange has removed his family to Trabuco and engaged in the bee business. Our mutual friend, O. W. Lockhart, has been promoted from a typo to the ancient and honorable business of sheep herder. He does not abandon mind culture, however, for I observe that he takes a good supply of books with him to the fields and whiles away the otherwise monotonous hours in reading. The literary society will meet to-morrow evening,and a highly enjoyable time is anticipated. They are preparing to give a Dickens entertainment in the near future, which will doubtless be a "flush of reason and a flow of soul" that will be both entertaining and instructive. Orange at the present is very quiet, as everybody is busy with farm work. Our merchants and mechanics, however, are doing a fair business. A good harness-maker is much needed here, and would find ample employ. VERITAS. Norwalk Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Nothing happens nowadays. It is too cold to run, so there are no elopements, nor bank races or perpetuate the evil. The influence of such societies is to weld together differing elements and to soften down aspertices. Striking illustrations of this proposition were adduced by the Reverend lecturer. 3d. Their influence in the conservation of existing institutions. Political considerations lie outside of the range of such societies, and loyalty to "the powers that be" is incultured by all the principles of Masonry and Oddfellowship. Towching allusions to events in connexion with our civil war bore out the speaker's remarks, and he concluded with an eloquent appeal to his brother Masons and Odd Fellows to live up to the principles of their orders, and to see that no reproach could be cast on the societies by the unworthy lives or characters of any members. The large number of hogs keeps the prices very low here. Our farmers are very busy sowing a large barley crop by land dry.

The rain on Monday amends tenths of an inch, making an nine-tenth inches. It time for some newly made Roadmaster cannot be reasleep A little extra will put our roads in good shape John Davis has rented these S.B.King, and Mr.Sim sorry to learn that Mr.Andre are about to leave us for a trip Westminster nursery has from all Anaheim customer printing: "I bought a lot out knew of your nursery and had whole lot out together bought from you. Have best rooted, etc., and I think any others I have seen or hail the first season's growth even more valuable than I Thank you. Another friend hills across the river writes: some of your good apple Would plant apples rather oranges." Thank you, too glad our friend has such land It would not do to haltages all in one place. Attention is directed to the advertisement of Spear, Meade & Co. of San Francisco. The firm is one of the most reliable in Francisco, and all consignments entrusted to them will receive prompt and careful attention. It should be borne in mind that they handle grain and produce solely on commission, and never, under any circumstances do they buy, sell or speculate on their own account. In the Probate Court on Tuesday a hearing of matters in regard to the estate of Daniel Schmidt, deceased, was had, and final distribution was ordered to be made. On Wednesday Messrs. Scott & Montgomery paid over to Mr. Danl. Kraemer, who holds a power of attorney from the heirs in Illinois and Europe, the money belonging to the estate, (about $1700). It may be proper here to remark that the Probate Judge recently paid a high compliment to the Messrs. Scott & Montgomery, for the prompt and efficient manner in which they attended to the probate matters in which they were engaged. This firm does more probate business than any other law firm in the county, and take a pride in transacting such business as rapidly as the requirements of law will allow. Sarkasm. Editor Gazette:—The game of ball between the Anaheim and Garden Grove clubs was played according to appointment, and after all your warning there was no demand on our part for base ball white-wash. The game was a very interesting one. According to your statement I had supposed that your club had been trimmed up to a very fine point, but it was trimmed somewhat finer by our boys. I am sorry the Anaheim boys were disappointed in getting some one's eye-teeth, and getting the fine new ball and bat that they took some pains to select for our boys to pay for. But such is conceit. I would advise the Anaheim club to trim up a little better for the 22nd, for fear they will want a supply of white-wash for themselves. The score stood 26 to 36 in favor of Garden Grove. A GROVERTE. Norwalk Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. Nothing happens nowadays. It is too cold to run, so there are no elopements, nor bank robberies. The fingers are so frozen that they could not close themselves over anything of that sort. Wasn't it a sight to a greenhorn to see people with furs, fans, parasols and light summer clothes in the winter. All regularly acclimated persons however fall into the fashion very soon of disporting all these useful articles of wearing apparel in the winter. The grass is green under your feet, the sun shines warm upon your back, the wind blows keen and cold from the snow-covered hills down your marrow, you have flowers in your hair, and furs around you, and fears of a cold in your nose, unless the worthy member is so exceedingly indicative of genius as to require a special messenger to tell you whether the end of it is cold or not. At the Hawkins establishment there is, it is understood, the usual circular changing of workmen. And Mr. Ryle said he went goose hunting and didn't shoot anything. He fired his gun off several times to see if it was loaded, but the ducks were half a mile high and failed to respond to the salute. Mr. Jack Clark "gif a leedle party" the other night and they didn't get "home till morning" "till daylight did appear," so they must have had a charming time. Several families it is stated intend journeying to Texas after harvest; hoping to realize an immense fortune suddenly and return to build splendid mansions and "live happily ever after." GIBRALTAR, Feb. 3.—It is feared that before next year half the inhabitants of the Southern provinces of Morocco will have perished by starvation and disease on account of the scarcity caused by last year's drought. If you want a first-class 4 spring wagon or an iron Buckboard cheap for cash, call on CULZER & PARKER, of Westminster, before sending your money out of the country for Cheap John work. Veritas.

Our boys feel somewhat elated over their victory at baseball. The more so, as some irresponsible parties in Anaheim had made remarks something like the following: "I should not think that the Anaheim boys would play with these Garden Grove turks." The game pinned off pleasantly. The Anaheim boys took their defeat with good grace, and conducted themselves like the young gentlemen they are. To-day (the 8th) our boys play a match game here with nine frogs the Orange club, but it is understood that it is not the first or best hine of the Orange club, but the school nine. We anticipate some lively work this spring among the baseball players. A club is being organized in Westminster. Dr. Gulick's lectures were not as well attended as was expected. The first evening was quite inclement. The lectures were very interesting and instructive, and the manner of hunting birds quite new to us and in some cases very amusing. Much has been said about the frost in different localities. Here there has been much ice and frost, and some trees have suffered. Mr. Bensonett, who lives about a mile northwest of the postoffice, says he has lost many of his orange trees, but I think they will come out again in the Spring. On Deacon Howe's place some of the trees were injured, but only the new growth. Mr. Howe has trimmed off the injured shoots, and a visitor would not know that they are even hurt. On my own place we could not notice the effects of the frost, except on the lime trees. We have now tuberoses in blossom. Much of the corn in Westminster, Gospel Swamp and Garden Grove is owned by farmers who are able to hold it for better prices, and who will not sell until they obtain a fair price, even if they have to keep their corn until next July, or even one or two years. They have held their corn before and can do it again. So the San Francisco statisticians can count at least one-third of the surplus in this portion of the State as out of the market. JAMES. Letter from Savannah. EDITOR GAZETTE:—As your paper has a wide circulation, I thought it might be of interest to the readers of the Gazette, to have a few items from the center of gravity, as the people here call this neighborhood. Allow me first to attempt to give the simulation, or location of Savannah. The town is eleven miles east of Los Angeles, and two miles from the town of San Gabriel. Our town is built of substantial framie houses. There are 20 houses (dwellings) and one good hotel kept by S. Bennett. Mr. B. also is a large pork packer, and has now on hand FRANK Ey Has received a choice lot of new brands of A1 smoking and showing tobacco. The best lot ever brought, to Anaheim. Also fine imported and domestic cigars and cigarettes. A good stock of metochium pipes, cigar holders, taffety, etc. Subscriptions received for all the leading San Francisco papers at published times, and delivered to any part of town free of charge. Don't Frown, If You Can Help It. But don't smile more than you are obliged to, if you have a moustache of discarded teeth. If such is the case, pressure and use at least once every day, delightful SO2-DONT, which will remain the unbecoming spots and threads that disfigure your teeth; render them nearly white, make the game hard and rosey, and instil fragrance to your breath. SO2-DONT, moreover, contains no corrosive acids or gritty particles, which is the case with some dentifrices, but is amiably safe as well as thoroughly effective. Still by all druggists. The Professional Indorsement which has been accorded by leading medical men in various parts of the country to Dr. Wm. Hall's Balsam for the Lung, is a sufficient guarantee of its efficacy in eradicating diseases of the breathing organ. These gentlemen have thoroughly tested the remedy, and their concurrent testimony is to the effect that it is a positive specific for lung, bronchial and throat afflictions of brittle description, and a most reliable preventive of that dreaded sourge, consumption. Druggists sell it. [Jan. 11 1m] During half a century the sterling reliably, Tanner's German Ointment, has been curing the most obliterate sorems, piles, corns, eruptions, and the severest burns, scalds, sprains, bruises and other external hurts, pleuritic and rheumatic pain, is speedily alleviated and its cause removed by the persistent use of this ointment. No failures are recorded of it. It would seem to be an infallible cure for the maladies and injuries to which it is adapted. Swellings of the joints, soreness of the kidneys, and pains in the side, chest or shoulders, are promptly relieved by it. All druggists sell it.

Letters from Savannah. Editor Gazette: As your paper has a wide circulation, I thought it might be of interest to the readers of the Gazette, to have a few items from the center of gravity, as the people here call this neighborhood. Allow me first to attempt to give the situation, or location of Savannah. The town is eleven miles east of Los Angeles, and two miles from the town of San Gabriel. Our town is built of substantial frame houses. There are 20 houses (dwellings) and one good hotel kept by S. Bennett, Mr. B. also is a large pork packer, and has now on hand about 45,000 pounds of pork and bacon, also three tons of lard. He is filling orders in the meat line both cast and west, along the line of the railroad. Next comes our enterprising merchant Mr. Snyder; he has a well filled store of goods in variety; one good blacksmith and wagon shop, one church, a good school building, good depot building, etc. The large number of hogs in this vicinity keeps the prices very low here. Our farmers are very busy plowing and sowing a large barley crop both on damp and dry land. Many are predicting a good year. The frosts of the past month have proved to us that orange growing in this place is a failure, as almost all the young semi-tropical trees here were killed to the ground, which argues very strongly in favor of certain localities for growing such fruit, even in our lovely climate. Allow me here to say that in removing from Anaheim, we regret leaving so many kind friends, and neighbors, and wish them all possible prosperity and happiness. In this valley there has been about ten inches of rainfall this season so far, with the prospects of more soon. There are some transfers of real estate by new comers arriving. Land rents here at $5.00 per acre or 1/4 of the crop (damp land). Tramps are very plentiful, just now, and it would take a well filled banking house and two soup houses, also a clothing house thrown in, to supply their wants. In conclusion I hope that I may never be a tramp on the dead beat list. J. H. B. Westminster Items. Regular correspondence of the Gazette. The rain on Monday amounted to five-tenth of an inch, making a total of three and nine-tenth inches. It came at a bad time for some newly made roads, but our Roadmaster cannot be responsible for the weather. A little extra work by-and-by will put our roads in good shape for the year. John Davis has rented the places of Rev. S. B. King, and Mr. Simpson. We are sorry to learn that Mr. and Mrs. Simpson are about to leave us for a time. Westminster nursery has a compliment from an Anaheim customer which will bear printing: "I bought a lot of trees before I knew of your nursery and have been setting the whole lot out together with those I bought from you. Have found yours the best rooted, etc., and I think worth double any others I have seen or handled. I think the first season's growth will prove them even more valuable than I have estimated." Thank you. Another friend from the foot hills across the river writes: "Wish I had some of your good apple land up here. Would plant apples rather than so many oranges." Thank you, too. But we are glad our friend has such superior orange land. It would not do to have the advantages all in one place. R.S. Sherman, Hyde & Co., Wholesale Music House, San Francisco.
