The following decision of Attorney-General Devane, relative to Las Bolsas rancho, will be found of great interest. It is addressed to the Washington attorney of the settlers: DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, WASHINGTON D. C., Dec. 17, 1878. Joe Tysonovsky Eq., Washington D. C. Sir.: The petition dated March 30, 1878, addressed to me by Walter Van Dyke, Esq., of San Francisco, and yourself, on behalf of the several hundred persons claiming to be pre-emptors and settlers on the public lands of the United States, ask that the Government of the United States will commence and prosecute suit or suits in the United States Courts of California, or will allow the petitioners to use the name of the United States in instituting such suits, the object and purpose of which shall be to reform the survey and patents of a certain body land situated in the county of Los Angeles, in the State of California, and known as the Rancho Las Bolsas. The reason given for instituting these proceedings is that the said survey and patents include and cover as the petitioners allege, public lands which are legally in the occupancy of the petitioners under the pre-emption laws. On the 2d of April, 1878, I transmitted the petition and the accompanying papers together with a letter to the Secretary of the Interior, asking for any information he might have to impart, and for his advice as to the propriety of granting the prayer of the petition. Having received the reply of the Secretary, together with numerous documents relative to the case, and upon further consideration thereof, in light of all the papers filed, I must refuse to grant the request of the petitioners. The question upon the solution of which the petitioners must at least rest their case is one of fact, namely, the question whether THE RIVERSIDE FAIR. A Successful Exhibition of Sumit-Tropical Fruit. The distance from Anaheim to the colony of Riverside is 38 miles, via the San Bernardino (and Newport) road, and although it is in some places quite steep and narrow it is what may be called a five-mile-an-hour road. In company with Mr. Olden, the editor of the Gazette visited Riverside on Wednesday, taking with them specimens of Anaheim oranges to exhibit at the branch fair of the Southern District Horticultural Society. The fair was held in a large public hall, tables being ranged along the sides, and the fruit placed in dishes bearing neat cards giving name of exhibitor, variety of orange, and if budded, the root used. The display was undeniably fine, some of the oranges being large beyond belief. The merest tyro, however, could not help but take immediate note of the burnished appearance of the fruit. It was painfully apparent that each particular orange had undergone a most energetic polishing, and the result was that they looked unnaturally clean. The Anaheim oranges were the only ones which showed the least speck of black, a circumstance which attracted a good deal of not unfavorable comment. We will concede, however, that the River-side oranges are more free from black than is the fruit grown nearer the ocean. The samples from Anaheim comprised: St. Michael, Navel and Mission oranges from Mr. Theo. Rimpau. These were budded on orange root, and were fine fruit. St. Michael and Konah oranges from Mr. W. Schulte. These were in bunches, and we failed to note any that could compare with them. Mission oranges, very large, from Mr. F. A. Korn. Liabon lemona, from Mr. R. H. Gilman. Mission oranges (two large and handsome clusters) from Mrs. Schneider. Mission oranges, from Mr. A. Metcalf. Mission seedling oranges, Sicily lemona, and an unknown variety of lemons from Mr. L. Parker. Mr. D. C. Hayward, of Orange, had also some very fine specimens of Navel, Mission and Mediterranean Sweet oranges. showed marked and distinct change although of one variety, to wit: The first tested was the Navel citron stock, which we found dominating in the citron quality; terrieties in every respect having rind, palp, membranous division all unmistakably impressed. The Navel on the lime root unmistakable evidence of the pear stock to strongly impress itself range bed in point of modify quality, giving a well-defined set but not to the degree of modification respect or physical appearance of pulp or membranous walls as citron—the citron being much larger in size. The third test from a bud on the China Lemon we have to say approximates no characteristics to that upon them than that upon the lime, foregoing decision that there cannot be any orange bud inserted and not citron, China lemon or limestone take on the acid flavor great detriment of well-drained quality. But while the orange thus sacrificed, the size of these stocks is largely increased. Your committee on the budding orange made careful examination of budded fruit of the followed Navel, St. Michael, Mediterrani Du Roi, Malta Blood, Creation Saville of Florida, Botheta Wilson's Best, Konah, Acajara were grown in the following Riverside, San Gabriel, Pasadena and Anaheim. We have awarded to the Navel first premium for entire excellence 67 (Cover, Riverside) of that year best specimen. We find the Du Roi variety second premium and No. 39 side) was the best specimen. The committee to test the new seedling oranges report that our best judgment, Mr. Pesquera side) is first in size and flavor man's (Hot Springs) second Higgins', (San Diego) first-in-pressness but was not as finely flask was the second in point of grace. Mr. Harrington's (Ten best general appearance as texture of rind). Shugarsihibit Malta Blood, which we our jurisdiction. Your committee on seedling 28 different specimens placed designated only by number ment immediately appeared that while some were evidentthe trees others had been picked On the 2d of April, 1878, I transmitted the petition and the accompanying papers together with a letter to the Secretary of the Interior, asking for any information he might have to impart, and for his advice as to the propriety of granting the prayer of the petition. Having received the reply of the Secretary, together with numerous documents relative to the case, and upon further consideration thereof, in light of all the papers filed, I must refuse to grant the request of the petitioners. The question upon the solution of which the petitioners must at last rest their case is one of fact, namely, the question whether the eastern line of the survey upon which the patent was issued was run in accordance with the boundary as given in the Mexican grants and in the decrees of the United States District Court confirming those grants. This question has been twice decided in the affirmative by the head of the Department of the Interior upon appeal from the Commissioner of the General Land Office. The Secretary of the Interior now in office and his predecessor have both declared upon a careful examination of the testimony presented that the survey is in accordance with the decree of confirmation and was correctly made, and that patent should issue. Here is no question of law. It is simply whether the line of the survey corresponds with the boundary as described in the grant and in the decree confirming the title. The conclusion of the law reached by the Secretaries of the Interior, in which as is contended there is error, have no connection with their decision of the question of fact. The party you represent had full notice of the proceedings and several times fully presented their objections to the survey and were fully heard by the officers of the Land Office. It is not claimed that any fraud or imposition was practiced upon these officers. If they erred in their deductions from evidence, it is an error for which the Courts can furnish no remedy. This is the conclusions of Mr. Justice Field, in Shepley et al va. Cowan et al (1st Otto, 330). See paragraph of the opinion commencing at foot page 339. As the determination of this point is decisive upon the subject of your request, I deem it unnecessary to consider other questions presented in the petition and discussed in your brief. Very respectfully, (Signed) CHARLES DEVENS. Attorney-General. The last number of the Rural Press contains an article from Mr. Wm. R. Olden, in reply to the hostile criticism called forth by a previous article about the effects of frost, which was published in the Gazette. To our way of thinking, he has by far the best of the argument, as his first article stated nothing but facts which have never yet been disproved. The trouble with his critics is that they attribute sentiments to Mr. Olden which he never expressed, and then valiantly go to work and demolish the straw man they themselves built. The concluding paragraph of Mr. Olden's letter reads as follows: I have lived in Anaheim ten years, and during that whole period I have had constant queries from strangers looking at the country, whether we could raise orange trees in Anaheim. They have been assured by everybody in Los Angeles (every second man in Los Angeles is a land agent) that Anaheim was nothing but a sand bank and a cactus patch; they could not raise oranges or anything else. When they visited San Gabriel the same lie was repeated, and most parties we failed to note any that could compare with them. Mission oranges, very large, from Mr. F. A. Korn. Lisbon lemons, from Mr. R. H. Gilman. Mission oranges (two large and handsome clusters) from Mrs. Schneider. Mission oranges, from Mr. A. Metcalf. Mission seedling oranges, Sicily lemons, and an unknown variety of lemons from Mr. L. Parker. Mr. D. C. Hayward, of Orange, had also some very fine specimens of Navel, Mission and Mediterranean Sweet oranges. Mr. Beach, of Orange, exhibited excellent samples of Mission, Mediterranean Sweet, and Navel oranges. Messrs. Sibley and Harwood, of Orange, had also large, excellent varieties of oranges on exhibition.

A LANGEN that they attribute sentiments to Mr. Olden which he never expressed, and then valiantly go to work and demolish the straw man they themselves built. The concluding paragraph of Mr. Olden's letter reads as follows: I have lived in Anaheim ten years, and during that whole period I have had constant queries from strangers looking at the country, whether we could raise orange trees in Anaheim. They have been assured by everybody in Los Angeles (every second man in Los Angeles is a land agent) that Anaheim was nothing but a sand bank and a cactus patch; they could not raise oranges or anything else. When they visited San Gabriel the same lie was repeated, and most parties were disconraged from coming at all. When they did come, they found that all this misrepresentation was caused by jealousy and fear. I have waited patiently until the time came when Anaheim could be vindicated from the slanders of her rivals. In doing this I have put the facts on record. We are in receipt of a very neat pamphlet, being a report of the Special Relief Committee, L. O. O. F. of Memphis, Tennessee. It gives an interesting and melancholy history of the ravages of the yellow fever in Memphis, a complete record of the deaths of members of the city lodges, and a report of the monkeys received from the Grand Lodges of the different States. The last shows some very singular figures. California heads the list with $3,205; Tennessee comes next with $2,161, but it is explained that some of this came from other States; Illinois, $1,570. These are the only States whose gifts reached into the thousands. South Carolina gave the pitiful sum of $6; Mississippi and Minnesota gave $25 each, and Massachusetts $58. Wm. A. Macondray, a prominent merchant of San Francisco, died in that city on Saturday last. The vote on the Constitutional Convention will take place on the first Wednesday in May. The importations of olive oil to the United States amount to over 400,000 gallons annually, valued at more than half a million of dollars. As Mary Flanigan and her husband were walking along Market St., San Francisco, a large sign fell down from the third story, striking the woman and killing her almost instantly. The committee to whom was referred the subject of stock upon which to bad or graft the orange, bag have to state that the four specimens submitted to their inspection showed marked and distinct characteristics, although of one variety, to wit: the Naval. The first tested was the Navel budded on the citron stock, which we found largely preeminating in the citron quality and characteristics in every respect, having the citron wind, pulp, membranous divisions and flavor, all unmistakably impressed. The second test, the Navel on the lime root, also gave unmistakable evidence of the power of the stock to strongly impress itself upon the orange bed in point of modifying the orange quality, giving a well-defined sub-acid flavour but not to the degree of modification in that respect or physical appearance of rind, size, pulp or membranous walls as that upon the citron—the citron being much coarser and larger in size. The third test was a sample from a bud on the China Lemon root. This we have to say approximates nearer in all its characteristics to that upon the citron root than that upon the lime, forcing us to the decision that there cannot be any doubt that the orange bud inserted and fruiting upon the citron, China lemon or lime roots unmistakably take on the acid flavor of each to the great detriment of the well-defined orange quality. But while the orange quality is thus sacrificed, the size of the fruit upon these stocks is largely increased. Your committee on the budded varieties of orange made a careful examination of 46 plates of budded fruit of the following varieties: Navel, St. Michael, Mediterranean Sweet. Du Roi, Malta Blood, Creole or Sweet Saville of Florida, Botheta, Keller's Best, Wilson's Best, Konah, Acapullo. These were grown in the following localities: Riverside, San Gabriel, Pasadena, Orange and Anaheim. We have awarded to the Navel orange the first premium for entire excellence, and No. 67 (Cover, Riveraide) of that variety as the best specimen. We find the Du Roi variety entitled to the second premium and No. 39 (Davis, Riveraide) was the best specimen. The committee to test the relative merits of seedling oranges report that according to our best judgment, Mr. Pesching's (Riveraide) is first in size and flavor; Mr. Waterman's, (Hot Springs) second in flavor; Mr. Higgins', (San Diego) first-in-point of sweetness, but was not as finely flavored. It also was the second in point of general appearance. Mr. Harrington's (Temescal) presents best general appearance as to form, color and texture of rind. Shugart & Waite exhibit Malta Blood, which we consider out of our jurisdiction. Your committee on seedling lemons had 28 different specimens placed before them, designated only by number.

Your committee on seedling lemons had 28 different specimens placed before them, designated only by number. An embarrassment immediately appeared from the fact that while some were evidently fresh from the trees others had been picked long enough to have passed the sweat, thus placing them upon an unequal basis as far as thickness of rind and development of the juice was concerned. As the tests had to be made upon the morits of each specimen as presented, your committee proceeded to cut them, and so many were found to correspond in general appearance and taste that they were enabled to reduce the specimens to eight different classes. These were then gone over carefully, and the most favored of each class selected for further trial. The juice was expressed in a glass, its rind placed in it and some water added, and in this condition it was allowed to remain over night. The following morning recourse was had to tasting. While they differed in degree of variety, they all, without exception, carried evidence of bitterness. To make this defect apparent beyond doubt the acidity of each was marked by the addition of sugar, when the flavor of the majority became of intense bitterness. All carried it to such a degree that your committee cannot recommend any one, in their opinion, worthy of recommendation. Your committee on deciduous fruits beg leave to report that for the best variety of winter apples they awarded the premium to P. A. Forser (Riverside) Baldwin variety; second, Yellow Pippin, J.
