REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE Gazette.
The piping times of peace still continue, and Westminster maintains her reputation. Born, to the wife of George Crittenden, a son. Born, to the wife of Marcus Michaela, a son. Born, to the wife of Jesse Davis, a son.
The school term closes this week, to begin again, we hope, in July. The trustees have purchased over ninety dollars worth of books for the school library. We expect to receive shortly from the clerk a detailed statement of the use of the school funds for the past year, and to publish it as a matter of interest to all concerned.
On and after April 1 the mail will close at noon daily, except Sundays, and the stage will connect with the evening train from Los Angeles.
"Rev. R. Halliday, of Anabeim, will deliver a lecture in the hall Tuesday evening, April 1, in behalf of the Ladies Social of the Presbyterian Church. Subject of the lecture, Hugh Miller, the Mason, the Poet, and the Philosopher, a study for young men. Lecture to be followed by a social and collation. We hope all who heard Dr. Compton's interesting and instructive lecture (and I am sure the ladies of the society will not soon forget either the pleasure or the profits) will not forget that Rev. Mr. Halliday too has a high reputation as a lecturer, and be sure to avail themselves of this opportunity to near him. Tickets to the lecture, 25 cta; children, half price."
The Methodist Social held Tuesday evening of this week was not arranged for in time to give a notice of it last week. Those who attended report a pleasant time and a full house.
Corn planting is now the order of the day. The slick of the mower begins to be heard in the alfalfa fields. Barley looks fair and the fogs at night will help it out.
The new Constitution has become the exciting topic. So far as your correspondent can judge, the Workingmen's party will support it, and the railroad interests oppose it. In the excitement and confusion it will be hard for the great body of the people, who favor neither Stanfordism nor Kearnoyianism, to decide whether the best interests of the people will be helped or hindered by it. The attack on Kearney at Santa Ana was a disgrace and a political blunder of the greatest magnitude. But sympathy for him seems to us as much misplaced as sympathy for a murder lynched by a mob in defiance of law. The act is to be condemned, but when a man is "hoist by his own petard," and falls a victim to the same lawlessness he has so often proclaimed as the only remedy for certain other evils, when he digs a pit and threatens suffocation in it, and then gets pushed in it himself, the first thought of every friend of different from anything in this portion of Los Angeles proceeds will be devoted. The election fee is expected to see a large stagger.
We predict the live ever was seen in this Constitutional election next fall. From the Constitution will be by the voters of this vile will be polled.

The proposition to vote a tax to pay off the entire amount of the back claims against Spring School District (Santa Ana) was voted down on last Monday. The total number of votes polled was 2145, 188 being against the tax, 23 for it, and three scattering.
The programme for the concert to be given at Garden Grove on next Friday evening is published to-day. We are assured by Mr. and Mrs. Chaffee that the event will be a musical treat and that the programme will be extensively carried out. It is hoped that the Anaheim folks will be present in large numbers.
A rumor having been circulated that the Riverside Land Company intend to build a tight dam at that point of the Santa Ana river from which their ditches are supplied, the water companies here have taken steps to learn whether such procedure is really contemplated. If it is, the law will be invoked to put a stop to the hoggish and illegal act.
The vine-growers and distillers of the State are requested to attend a meeting of the California State Vineultural Society in San Francisco on the end of April. The subjects to be discussed are: The proposed French Treaty; Free Brandy for Sweet Wines; Bonded Warehouse, Regulations; Wine for the Australian Fair.
An amendment of section 3.337 of the Political Code, approved on the 1st day of April, 1878, read as follows: "The officers and members of unpaid fire companies, regularly organized, and exempt firemen, are entitled to the following privileges, viz: Exemption from the payment of poll tax and head tax of every description; exemption from jury duty; exemption from military duty, except in cases of war, invasion and insurrection.
Mr. Nelson C. Hawks, one of the proprietors of the Pacific Type Foundry, was in town on Wednesday. If anyone in Anaheim has an orange grove which they wish to "swap" for an interest in a well established type foundry, they will hear of something to their advantage by communicating with Mr. Hawks. He was perfectly contented with his lot until he came here, but he now thinks that his vocation is a mistake and that his true position in life is that of a horticulturist. Accompanying Mr. Hawks was Mr. N. C. Carter of San Gabriel, and Geo. R. Bacon, the advance agent of the Hutchinson Family, who will give a concert here Wednesday night.
Another "indignation meeting" is to be held at Santa Ana, as will be seen by the following, which is copied from a handbill received at this office:

The new injury to law and order comes as an afterthought. Let freedom of speech be maintained. Let free speech be met by free speech. And if any man abuses that freedom, let the law hold him accountable. This is our only safety. And the good sense of the American people will sustain the right in the end. Aside from the lawlessness of the affair, the worst effect will be that many people of quick passion and slow judgment will vote for or against the new Constitution as if they were voting for brag against Kearney, or for or against the assault on him, or for or against freedom of speech. And it is evident that the affair will be magnified and dwelt upon and kept hot by much blowing for this special effect. Let Kearney drop. He is not worth discussing. Let the document that defines and limits our liberties be the sole subject of argument.
The Westminster Club that favors the adoption of the instrument will meet every Friday night until the day of voting.
The funeral services of Calvin M. Porter M. D., were held in the Congregational Church last Sunday, Rev. A. J. Compton M. D., preaching the sermon. Dr. Porter was born in Missouri, July, 1853. He came to California in 1872 with his father. In 1875 he purchased Andrew Johnson's farm in Westminster, but his residence was mainly in Los Angeles. He became convinced that farming required too much physical exertion for his strength, and decided to study medicine, for which purpose he went to Cleveland, Ohio, in February, 1877. There is no doubt but that too close application to medical studies there was the immediate cause of his decline. He opened an office in Los Angeles on his return, but rapidly fading health compelled him to abandon it in September. Since then he spent most of his time in Pasadena and the mountains, and was brought here to his father's home about six weeks ago. He died Friday, March 21, aged 25 years. The record of his life is honorable. He was everywhere respected and trusted for his ability, integrity, and friendliness. The community suffers a great loss when such men are taken away. The family so sorally afflicted in the loss of an only son and brother, have the sympathy of all friends.

Another "indignation meeting" is to be held at Santa Ana, as will be seen by the following, which is copied from a handbill received at this office:
Santa Ana, March 26, 1879.
Owing to the fact that our town and valley has been disgusted by a cowardly and unprovoked assault upon a President of an indignation meeting, and as we are unwilling that it should go forth to the world that we, as citizens of this town and valley, endorse or countenance such unlawful and mobocratic methods of doing business, we citizens of Santa Ana call for a public meeting, to be held Saturday, March 29, 1879, at 4 o'clock P.M., in Santa Ana, for the purpose of entering our protest against, and denouncing tax rules in our midst.
A special meeting of the Anaheim Fire Department was held on last Wednesday. The invitation extended by the 38's Engine Company to attend their banquet in Los Angeles on next Thursday, was accepted and about a dozen of the members announced their intention of being present. Foreman Payne was appointed a committee of one to confer with the Town Trustees, and endeavor to secure their aid in purchasing a fire engine and hose. Mesara Rogers, Backs and Leopold Cohen were appointed a committee to ascertain whether suitable grounds could be obtained for the picnic which the Company proposes to give in July.
Dr. Golink has just received from Japan a very superior lot of persimmon trees, selected with much care by his brothers new residents of Japan. The Dr. offers them for sale, from his residence in Garden Grove at most reasonable rates. Also a small number of boxes of the pressed fruit.
We are having foggy weather, but no rain. The barley and wheat crop will amount to nothing without rain. Many of the artesian wells that flowed last year all the time have now ceased to flow, and we hear of new wells every day that are failing in their water supply. This is caused by too many new and large wells which have been sunk this season in the country south of this place, as well as to the small rainfall. We have not given up hope of rain yet. Twice during the past ten years there have been two or three inches of rainfall during the first week of April, and we may have some yet.
If some party would come here with a water lifter of some economical construction, he could make money raising water. We have heard a great deal about a clock-power water lifter that was to be in Santa Ana some weeks ago. If it is what it is claimed to be by the agent there, many could be sold in this vicinity; but the delay in getting them here causes many to believe that they are not a success. If they can do the work they are represented as being capable of doing, two of three parties here will invest in them.
There have been two very lively meetings held at the school house here for the purpose of organizing a workingmen's and farmers' club, but so far nothing has been accomplished except an interchange of opinions. On last Monday evening the meeting was called to order at 8 o'clock and continued in session until nearly 12 o'clock. S. L. King was elected Chairman. Speeches were made by B. C. Miller, H. W, Wood, Wm., Justice, S. L. King, Dr. H. W, Head, Wm., Hall, W. T. Stanfull, W. H. Jasper, A. G. Cook, and others. A series of resolutions were presented deprecating mob violence, urging legislative control of fares and freights, and equal taxation; but after two hours discussion were referred back to the committee for further action. There will be another meeting on Monday evening next, to organize a Club under the regular State Workingmen's organization; but leaving out the ironclad pledge of the Los Angeles city Club.
We understand that our friends at Westminster have organized a Club, the object of which is to vote and work for the new Constitution. Many prominent citizens have already joined, and many more are expected to join.
The concert for which so much preparation has been made, will come off on Friday evening April 4. All the proceeds after paying necessary expenses will go to the benefit of the organ fund of the Garden Grove M. E. Church. The writer feels justified in saying that the entertainment will be well worth attending and will be quite...
different from anything ever offered before in this portion of Los Angeles county. The proceeds will be devoted to a good cause. The advertisement is small, and we hope and expect to see a large attendance.
We predict the liveliest campaign that ever was seen in this county, both at the Constitutional election and the general election next fall. From present appearances the Constitution will be generally supported by the voters of this vicinity, and every vote will be polled.

REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE QAZETTE.
Deputy State Engineer Schuyler, of Stockton, paid our town a visit last week and in company with one of our citizens spent a day in riding over the district, examining critically the varieties of soil, water facilities, improvements, landscape views, and general typography. He expressed himself enthusiastically in praise of Orange and said that he had not previous to this visit the remotest conception of the capabilities and advantages of this district. He made copious notes of his investigations, and spoke in the highest terms of the improvements and resources of our section. Our citizens were highly pleased with the complimentary criticisms of Mr. Schuyler, and feel more than ever assured that our locality only needs to be more widely known to induce a rush of immigration that would soon fill every vacant ranch with men of intelligence and enterprise. To all we extend the invitation to come, see, and judge for themselves, before locating permanently.
Mr. Samuel Shrewabury paid us a visit today, and reports that they had last week in Santiago canyon a capious rain, and that the barley sown promises an abundant crop. He expresses the opinion also that the honey crop will be good, provided they have no hot, drying Santa Ana winds to dry the bee-feed.
The meeting of the Literary Society last Friday evening was largely attended, and the programme was carried out with success. Besides the members present, there were a number of visitors from abroad who expressed themselves as highly pleased with the experiences of the evening. At the next regular meeting an election of officers will take place, and the programme will be brief.
School Superintendent McDonald is visiting the public schools here this week.
A new school district has been recently formed from a portion of this (Richland), and including the settlement known as Fairhaven; also a portion from the Tustin district. It is to be known as the Amity school district.
The dancing party at Beach's Hall last Friday evening was a quiet, orderly, and brilliant affair. The young people had a different from anything ever offered before in this portion of Los Angeles county. The proceeds will be devoted to a good cause. The advertisement is small, and we hope and expect to see a large attendance.

Our citizens are very busy "in minding their own business" to wit: in cultivating and beautifying their own ranches, end as a consequence items are scarce: If Denis Kearney would act on this principle instead of going about the State vultiny and abusing our best citizens and stirring up "bad blood," the world would be the better for it.

Details of the Collision.
SAVANNAH, Cal. March 24.
EDITOR GARETTÉ—I suppose the readers of your paper have heard of the great steamer collision. I mean the steamers Golden Rule and D. Kearney. The Kearney was steaming down this coast at about 30 miles per hour, except when the steamer put into port to take on gas, etc., and to discharge home productions of various kinds too numerous to mention. By the time she arrived in Los Angeles steam was up and blowing off at the unsafety valve, and everything aboard was hot. After discharging some heavy freight at Los Angeles she pushed out for Anaheim. At Anaheim, I understand, some very heavy freight was discharged, and as no steamer had touched there for some time she took aboard a terrible heavy freight contained to the people of Santa Ana and other portions of the county. The steamer Rule was laying at anchor at Santa Ana when the Kearney arrived, but while the Kearney was discharging some poor freight the Rule steamed up the Kearney with a full head of steam and struck the Kearney on the larboard bow near the bowsprit, which bursted in the bulwarks near the lookout and caused the Kearney to careen a little. At the same time the man at the wheel of the Kearney put her about and at the same time the Rule gave chase in the wake of the Kearney, ran her dowdh and tore away her foretopmast, which caused the Kearney to lay too and discharge some more freight. After discharging her freight she was put on the dry docks for repairs. After thorough repairs the Kearney steamed on down the coast for San Diego and way ports, while the Rule was left cruising in the vicinity of Santa Ana.
About nine-tenths of the people in this vicinity don't go a cent on Denis Kearney, and but little on the new Constitution: They think the old one, with a little repairs, was and is good enough. The people here think Kearney only got half enough in the Santa Ana light for slandering Mr. Seibert and others who are, we know, highly esteemed gentlemen. It is hoped that the would be agitator will confine himself more closely to the Sandy Lots in San Francisco where some one haired hoodlums can meet and get their fill. While free speech is highly appreciated, we also want a free press.

The Hutchinson Family Concert.
It gives us pleasure to announce that the celebrated Hutchinson Family will give a concert at Kroeger's Hallon Wednesday evening, April 2d. There are doubtless many of our readers who have heard and read of this family, who have been warbling their quaint songs for the past thirty years, and who embrace this opportunity to hear and see them. Their entertainment is so entirely original that they draw crowded houses wherever they go. The price of admission has been reduced to 50 cents, and reserved seats can be secured at the stationery store of Mr. Herman Cohn. We append some press notices which show the estimation in which these singers are held:
The Hutchinsons were greeted, last evening, at the Congregational Church with a fine audience. Those who were present were fortunate, those who were absent losers; and as the oblittle music was produced, hearts welled up to the eyes that crows' feet are fast contracting, and the memory of other days caused many cheeks to flush with emotion—Sucretimento Record-Union.
The Hutchinson Family's past week have been singing to increasing audiences their celebrated peculiar melodies. For nearly forty years the voice of "Father John" has been heard in the land, chanting the anthems of "Liberty" and "Reform." None can hear the Hutchinson without being entertained, instructed and elevated. They have throughout the world freely donated their services to every good cause, and merit a generous welcome wherever they go—S. F. Call.
The sweet singers of the "Tribe of Jesse" are among us, and we are enjoying the richest treat of the kind ever given to San Francisco people. We never heard from mortal lips such music as they make—S. P. Beaquet.
The audience that assembled at Metropolitan Temple last evening was treated to an evening of rare enjoyment in the singing of the Hutchinson Family. Their quartette singing is, without doubt, the finest ever heard in this city, being perfection without ablemish. The Hutchinson tour in England, popular as it was, has not destroyed the simplicity of manner which throws a charm over their performances. The 3,000 people who were fortunate enough to get within the walls of the Temple enjoyed a treat—New York Tribune.

A SPEEDT QUIETUS is given to a hacking cough by that inestimable specific for pulmonary, throat, and bronchial complaints. Hall's Balsam FOR THE LUNGS, which cures consumption, bronchitis, pneumonia, pleurisy, labored breathing and other disorders of the respiratory organs.

NOTHING SUCCERDS LAKE SUCCESS—An example of the truth of this is the success of TANNER'S GERMAN ORIGENT, one of the leading medicinal staples of the age. It never falls, but always succeeds in removing corns, sores, ulcers and eruptions, chewing rheatic twings in the joints and muscles and removing pleurisy and pain in the region of the liver and kidneys. Lame back, a trouble to which weakly females and elderly persons are extremely subject, is always caused by this ointment. It is unequaled. All druggists sell it.
