REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The ever memorable Fourth has come and gone, and how it was observed by the people of Orange has become history. Much of the patriotic zeal and enthusiasm felt by our fathers and which found expression upon each returning anniversary in patriotic speeches and orations, in military displays, the booming of cannon and in "bonfires and illuminations" has ceased to exist, and although still recognized in a degree as a national holiday, yet the good old-fashioned celebrations have become among "the things that were" and instead of the original methods we have picnics, excursions etc. Well, those of the Orangeites who did not stay at home went, some to the coast at Laguna, others to Newport, some to the mountains and others to the cities, and spent each in their own way the day commemorative of our nation's birth with that respect which as American citizens they felt due to the day and the occasion which signalized it in history. They all report having had a good time, and having gained a new lease of life from devotion to the day made sacred by the birth of the independence and freedom of the American nation. The last meeting of the Orange Literary Society was held on Friday, June 27th., and as it was the last meeting before the usual Summer vacation a large number were in attendance and the exercises were of a more than ordinary interest. The society is established upon a firm basis and has become a necessity to our citizens. The next meeting will take place on the first Friday in October next. At a recent election for school directors in this district Mr. J. Y. Jenkins received a majority of the votes and was declared duly elected. The number of pupils in the district capable of drawing public moneys ascertained by the June census was 145. Since the enumeration of 1878 a new district has been set off from this which reduced the number to the above. In consequence of this reduction the Primary department has been merged with the Intermediate and but two teachers will be required where heretofore three have been employed. The combined salaries of the two will be but one hundred dollars per month for a school term Out of courtesy, perhaps, station will appear under the Anaheim Items," but the "Ann Neighborhood" would be quite accurate. There is nothing of significance to the public to be called it seems to be expected or will be occasionally represented umms. Our farming interests depressed as in some other areas is no lack of the necessities of by your Garden Grove co-ops we are able to indulge in societies. Indeed, I can hardly can be actually suffering for dozen of eggs will buy 100 pints a sack of potatoes. Now me, can a family be maintained at least, in a civilized country?

The glorious 4th passed all staying at home thus spent the evening eith Frank Cummins', or at M As will be seen by advertisement, the Republican nominee for Governor will address the people of Anaheim and vicinity on the evening of the 21st inst. The suit of the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company against the settlers on Las Bolsas, will be tried in the Circuit Court, San Francisco, on the 22d inst. The centrifugal pump of Mr. J. H. Haines was put to a severe test yesterday at the well on Mr. Seibert's farm. The result of the trial will be given next week. Mr. J. C. Roley, of Los Angeles, is a candidate for State Senator, subject to the Republican nomination. The Commercial, in enumerating his qualifications, says that as an Indian fighter he was noted for caution and discretion. We regret to learn of the sickness of Mr. J. E. Preston, of Westminster. A fever, originally contracted in the West Indies, has attacked him, and he has been quite ill. Two of his children are also very sick, and his youngest child died on Tuesday. The announcement of Judge Venable, of Los Nietos, is published today. There is, we believe, little opposition to his nomination by the Democratic Convention for the office of Assessor, and it is probable that he will be the nominee of the party. If you want to see the festive centipede in all his glory, drive across La Habra ranch about sundown on some nice evening. It is then that the creature stalks forth in all the pride of hirute legs and seeks enjoyment in an evening stroll. We counted six thus engaged the other evening within a few hundred yards of each other. A drunken man broke into the house of Martin Classen on Wednesday night, seriously frightening Mrs. Classen, who was alone at the time. Her screams brought Mr. Hilmer to the rescue, and he dragged the scoundrel up the street and turned him over to the Marshal. He pled guilty before Justice Bailey on Thursday, and was fined $30, which he paid. Through some laches on our part, we were guilty of the discourtesy of omitting to note the exceedingly complimentary vote which the editor of the Herald received in the Democratic Convention. He came within eight votes of receiving the nomination for Lieutenant-Governor. The nomination of Mr. Lynch would have been hailed with pleasure in this county and would have greatly strengthened the ticket. A cowhiding affray was the sensation on Centre street on Thursday. The licked was a handsome young man, and the licker was a stalwart and herculean member of the demi-monde. The handsome young man received two blows on the face from the raw hide, but further punishment was averted by his precipitous flight. He has gone into the country to recuperate. It may be said of him, as it was of the boy who was kicked by a mule, "He isn't as handsome as he used to be, but he knows more." At a recent election for school directors in this district Mr. J. Y. Jenkins received a majority of the votes and was declared duly elected. The number of pupils in the district capable of drawing public money ascertained by the June census was 145. Since the enumeration of 1878 a new district has been set off from this which reduced the number to the above. In consequence of this reduction the Primary department has been merged with the Intermediate and but two teachers will be required where heretofore three have been employed. The combined salaries of the two will be but one hundred dollars per month for a school term of eight months, whereas heretofore the principal of the schools alone has received this amount. I am told by the Clerk of the Board that a reduction in the amount and apportionment of State and county school money renders this reduction in salaries necessary. These changes operate disastrously in many respects. Heretofore we have maintained a graded school, which has deservedly held a high rank, and been able to employ teachers of experience and superior merit as educators. As it is now, our school is reduced to the character of a mixed school and the salaries insufficient and inadequate to the duties required of experienced and qualified professional teachers. This is the season for "camping," and many of our citizens are away at the various resorts, enjoying in seclusion a season of rest from the labors and cares of life. Mr. T. J. Lockhart and family and Mrs. J. W. Anderson and family are at Laguna beach listening to the music of old ocean, and gathering shells and mosses, fishing, bathing, etc. Col. Webber and family, the Misses Joslin and Messrs. Witherbee and Hager, are at Mill Creek, in the San Bernardino mountains. Mr. Berry and family and Mr. Stamps are at the San Jacinto mountains, and the elder Mrs. Stamps, with the Misses Tiebout, is sojourning at the hot springs in San Juan. Judge Sepulveda paid us a visit this morning, looking after his prospects for the Superior Judgeship. Mr. Sibley, who resides in the mouth of the canyon, recently had a narrow escape for his life from an attack by an enraged cow which was depredating upon his premises, and from which he was endeavoring to drive her. Except for timely assistance he would doubtless have lost his life. Through the courtesy of Mr. J. W. Anderson, the Secretary of the S.A.V.Irrigation Company, I am permitted to present the following statement of the business of the Co.for the months of May and June: CASH ACCOUNT: DR—May 1.

The licked was a handsome young man, and the licker was a stalwart and herculean member of the demi-monde. The handsome young man received two blows on the face from the raw hide, but further punishment was averted by his precipitous flight. He has gone into the country to recuperate. It may be said of him, as it was of the boy who was kicked by a mule, "He isn't as handsome as he used to be, but he knows more." A young man named Fritz Budde, who lived in Anaheim for some time, had a rough experience as a stowaway. He went from Anaheim to Wilmington a few weeks ago, and while standing on the wharf he saw a car, loaded with corn, the door of which was open. Procuring a loaf of bread and a bottle of water, he hid himself in the car, the door of which was locked soon after. Fire days afterwards the car was unloaded at Sacramento, and Budde was found therein, nearly famished for want of food and drink. He was taken before a magistrate, who discharged him, thinking he had received enough punishment. During a brief visit to the famous "Sunny Slope" vineyard of Mr. Rose, at San Gabriel, we embraced the opportunity of looking at the immense building now being erected by him for use as a distillery. When completed, which will be in a few weeks, it will be the largest and best arranged building of its kind in the State. As Mr. Rose explained to us the internal arrangements, it was evident that he had given much thought to all the details, and that he was carrying out plans which were the result of wide experience and careful study of the requirements of his business. Besides the usual quantity of wine, he intends to make 60,000 gallons of brandy this year. The building and distilling apparatus will cost him about $20,-000, and this, taken in connection with the fact that he has now five hundred acres of vineyard, shows that he has unbounded confidence in the future of viniculture in this State—a confidence, it may be remarked, which is shared by every vineyardist in Anaheim.

Out of courtesy, perhaps, this communication will appear under the head of "Centralia Items," but the "Annals of a Quiet Neighborhood" would be quite as appropriate. There is nothing of sufficient importance to the public to be called an item, yet it seems to be expected our neighborhood will be occasionally represented in your columns. Our farming interests are hardly as depressed as in some other sections. There is no lack of the necessities of life, as spoken by your Garden Grove correspondent, and we are able to indulge in some of the luxuries. Indeed, I can hardly see how people can be actually suffering for food where three dozen of eggs will buy 100 pounds of corn, or a sack of potatoes. Nowhere, it seems to me, can a family be maintained with so little—at least, in a civilized country. The wheat of gentlemen Forster and Potter is headed, and the quality and quantity prove conclusively that it can be grown here, a very encouraging fact for the future. Corn will not be a failure, though a partial one, and with present low prices and the stock on hand, we do not much care if it is. Several shipments of hogs have been made from here, and our farmers think they realize more from them than grain. We are enjoying the pleasure of eating fruit from orchards that had no existence four years ago. On the 4th our table was graced with strawberries, peaches, apricots and figs, all home grown. Grapes will be very abundant, and some apples and pears. At the school election, Mr. Joseph C. Hill was elected trustee for three years, and a sum of $300 voted to pay expenses for a longer term of school than we have ever had. For the credit of Centralia, we refrain from telling how close the vote was. We sincerely hope those who opposed it will have time to repent the wrong they attempted to perpetrate upon our children. They cannot expect pardon by pleading ignorance, for every one should know better than to oppose the public school. Mr. McPherson, who proved so popular a teacher: here last year, will commence school July 14th. Mr. and Mrs. Crane are away for the season at Shrewsbury Canyon. His health is reported improving. The glorious 4th passed off quietly, nearly all staying at home through the day, but spent the evening either at the dance at Frank Cummins', or at Mr. Landell's. That new additions of Rollin's Ancient History —In reply to the charge that the Pacific Coast Steamship Company in pooling earnings with the railroad company, Mr. H.

The glorious 4th passed off quietly, nearly all staying at home through the day, but spent the evening either at the dance at Frank Cummins', or at Mr. Landell's. That gentleman's establishment presented quite a gala appearance, with its Chinese lanterns and Stars and Stripes. The music was appropriate and select, the cake and wine excellent, and the apples, from Mr. Upson's orchard, toothsome; and, what is still better, the company harmonious. Our annals will hardly be complete if one active little personage is omitted. Cupid's arrows have been flying thick and fast; aimed with unerring precision, they have pierced the hitherto invulnerable mail of some of our most confirmed bachelors. Although the wounds are deep, from what we learn the crisis is passed, and we not only expect soon to have the pleasure of offering our congratulations, but telling the Gazette when the denouement comes. PHILLIS. Savannah Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. July 4th, long looked for, arrived with its usual amount of patriotism and interest. Our little village early on the 4th was reminded by the reports of firing a large anvil from the blacksmith shop, that the 103d anniversary of our Independence day had arrived. As it had previously been advertised that several horse races would take place here, by 10 o'clock the sports of the surrounding neighborhood commenced to flock in with their store clothes on, so that by noon about 200 or 300 had arrived to see the sights, buy pools in the races, etc. Dinner was served at the Bennet House and then the people repaired to the race track about one and a half miles West of here. On the ground before the horses started, betting went on at a fearful rate. One would think that the Rothchild's bank was near at hand, also one of the largest three dollar watch factories in New York, by the wild way that the $250 and $300 watches were bet. You could almost measure them by the peck, and the large sums of money carelessly chucked in the hands of stake-holders was almost beyond all reason. One fellow was so excited that he put up the large amount of $4 in some one's hands, but after the races, looked for the holder of the money but failed to identify the gentleman, so lost his pile even if he won it. As I left the track the day before the races, I failed to get the pedigree of the horses. So the day passed on with the usual amount of whiskey and other drinks being double rectified. And I will add here, that I intend (when elected to the legislature on the workingmen's ticket) to have an amendment of the following clause, to wit: That every still shall be taxed to its utmost capacity. That is to say, some stills are larger than others; some single and some double rectifiers. Single rectifiers run through more with less effect, while double rectifiers run through less with more deadly effect to the still (the stomach) and no still shall run through more than its capacity only on National holidays when it shall not be limited to its actual capacity. Further, there shall be a liquor ganger appointed at every bar-room when the frame whichTake advantage of hard times and call and buy yourself a new Wagon, as I have a large number on hand and will sell them at any price.H.

Single rectifiers run through more with less effect, while double rectifiers run through less with more deadly effect to the still (the stomach) and no still shall run through more than its capacity only on National holidays when it shall not be limited to its actual capacity. Further, there shall be a liquor ganger appointed at every bar-room to gauge the amount when the frame which holds up the still is unable to stand up to the counter and act for himself; and there shall also be a regine tax collector at every counter to collect the full amount strictly in accordance with the ginger's returns. After the above act is passed if the officers fail to do their duty, we will appoint a committee to wait upon them with about twelve feet of good hemp. Like all other Fourths this one had its end. Next day a great many had very empty pockets, while a few had some treasure. At the Bennett House the ball was very well attended; there was good music and the dancers seemed to enjoy it. There is a farmer in this vicinity who has such a heavy field of wheat now ready to cut, that they are at a loss to know what to cut it with, as they have failed to cut-it with the common mowing machine, but will solve the problem this week. The Southern Methodists are holding a protracted meeting at this place now, Rev. Mr. Moores of Los Angeles officiating. J. H. B. Westminster Items. The following gentlemen were elected Trustees of the Westminster Presbyterian Church on Saturday: Perrin Lyon, Robert Strong, Thomas Edwards, Dr. McCoy, James Beckwith and J. H. Sherwood. The pastor was chosen Superintendent of the Sabbath School, Mr. J. H. Fleming Asn't Superintendent, and Albert Taylor Secretary. The pastor, Rev. A. J. Compton, will hold a service on next Sunday at 3 p.m. at Ocean View school house. —The excursion train to Anaheim will leave Los Angeles to narrow morning at 10 o'clock. It is expected that there will be six carloads of excursionists, and among them will be two brass hands. The procession will form at the truck house on Los Angeles street at 11:30, and proceed to the Gardens, where the serious business of the day will at once be inaugurated.
