A Talk With the Maidens of Los Angeles.
Los Angeles Herald.
A very excellent institution is matrimony. With the female sex it is the sweet fruition of earnest hope and moral and physical development maturing and concentrating from earliest childhood. Each thought of giddy girlhood is tinged with nuptial aspirations. As advancing womanhood rounds and moulds her ripening proportions—
"Come a youth with flaunting feathers, With his flute of reeds, a stranger, Beckons to the fairest maiden; And she follows where he leads her, Leaving all things for the stranger."
And the merry-souled Minnehaha is a type of her sex in this regard the world over. She cannot resist the bells, no troops of prattling children. And why is it?
We shall launch at these fair emigrants a few bitter truths. The lapse of a few years has induced a mighty change in the matrimonial phase of California. Labor is remunerative and honorable here. Your young mechanical townsman, with whom you consorted at home, but whom you flout and despise in your new abode, has been gathering much and varied knowledge by rough attrition with his fellows. Travel and self-reliance are the true schoolmasters. He has gained information better than that contained in books. In your fantastical and unbounded ambition you may pass him upon our thoroughfares with haughty tread and unrecognized. He outscorns you in his heart. He will soon depart and return again, and upon his arm will lean a modest girl from your own native village; and that girl will laugh mellowly at your silly aspirations. In the preponderance of your sex in the olden States you would have esteemed yourself fortunate had the bricklayer of your native town thrown his uncouth person at your feet. You have made a few days journey on an ocean steamer and you have grown into a Semele. None but the Jupiters of the land must approach you in love's guises. You will mate alone with the opulent merchant whose warehouse holds arrogies of goods, or with the rich landholder. Perhaps emergency may arise that will lead you to an alliance with some drowsy judge or dissipated lawyer. You are destined to wealth or place, so you flatter yourself.
Sweet and erring sisterhood, you will make your position endure. You
childhood. Each thought of giddy girlhood is tinged with nuptial aspirations. As advancing womanhood rounds and moulds her ripening proportions—
"Come a youth with flaunting feathers,
With his flute of reeds, a stranger,
Beckons to the fairest maiden;
And she follows where he leads her,
Leaving all things for the stranger."
And the merry-souled Minnehaha is a type of her sex in this regard the world over. She cannot resist the summons of the burly male whose sinews are so strong. Her greedy ear drinks up the modulated love plaint; and with affected reluctance and trembling footstep she follows her stout wooer to the new dwelling. She brushes from her heart, as web of gossamer, all filial piety and shatters in atoms the old household gods, in her pursuit of a new home and the husband of her choice. Marriage with the female is beautiful destiny. In its observance are hatched forth sanctified domestic relations which form the superstructure of modern society. Interwoven with it are the existence and progress of good laws and religious culture and the advancement of the human race. Some pleasant theorists urge that earthly marriages are preludes to spiritual unions in the skies. It may be so. Marrying is the harmonizing of discords. Physical strength consorts with weakness. Jagged and rough address is allied with exceeding grace. It is the blending of softness with rough and shaggy natures. In fact, the modern physiologist deduces the happiest matrimonial results from the combination of most dissonant properties. He would unite the light-haired with the raven-hued; the choleric and nervous temperament with the lymphatic; the intensely ugly with great beauty of person. The nuptial vow, he insists, is the alkali that coalesces proportionally to the dissimilarity of the ingredients. Perhaps the physiologist is right, and perhaps, too, we have lingered too long in our exordium upon these matrimonial generalities. We proceed to localize our theme.
After all, there is not such a wonderful dearth of unmarried females in our city of Los Angeles. The same restless and wild spirit of adventure which has urged to these shores the male masses has likewise ruled the
None but the Jupiters of the land must approach you in love's guises. You will mate alone with the opulent merchant whose warehouse holds argosies of goods, or with the rich landholder. Perhaps emergency may arise that will lead you to an alliance with some drowsy judge or dissipated lawyer. You are destined to wealth or place, so you flatter yourself.
Sweet and erring sisterhood, you mistake your position sadly. You have reached a soil of stirring intelligencies. The petticoat is respected proportionately as it envelopes cultivated sense and a disposition to industry. Your matrimonial prospects have brightened but little by emigration. You blast them entirely and forever in your effort at alliances superior to your condition in life and your limited intelligence. You must betake yourself to household labor. You are accustomed to it, and why your affectations in this land of toil? You will do well if, by modest department and earnest respect, you win to your arms the brawny mechanic and the stout-limbed tiller of the soil. He is your superior in every regard. You despise him! Why, he does you honor to make you the mother of his children. He is quietly pursuing the road to independence. Your chief error lies in your belief of the isolated condition of this State of ours. You should recollect that but a few days' travel conveys him to a land stuffed and overflowing with bright-eyed and intelligent maidens who are beckoning rich merchant and lazy Judge equally with busy artisan and plodding agriculturist to their round arms and beating hearts. Your airy assumptions will condemn you to a life of solitude and neglect.
Then do we advise these dear creatures not to assume as part beyond their merits. They can all marry, and well, too, but in their proper station. Thus do we talk to the maidens of Los Angeles. In a word, we commend less crinoline and less pretensions.
When the bill exempting stock certificates from taxation was under discussion in the Senate, Senator Chase of Santa Barbara made the following brief and pointed speech:

After all, there is not such a wonderful dearth of unmarried females in our city of Los Angeles. The same restless and wild spirit of adventure which has urged to these shores the male masses, has likewise ruled the tenderer sex. But the single girl, when once arrived, becomes fascinated with the charms of our Pacific town. She hates the muddy canyon and the dry mountain summit of the interior. She cannot fraternize with the blue shirt and the unkempt beard of the coarse miner. In her olden home, afar to the eastward, she has dreamed of corpulent hills bellied out with fat mineral, and streams red with the blood of gold. She has dreamed that woman, upon California soil, was more precious than the otto of Asiatic monarchs. She came here as a Princess, or Peri. She thought that men would struggle for her person, as did olden warriors for the Trojan Helen. The boldest, and the highest, and the richest would be at her feet. No mountains, no valleys for her. She will linger in the city mart, amid joy, and lofty buildings. So she comes here and finds thousands of her sex who have lingered here for years, still panting for nuptial joys, and whose hopes have near faded into despair. There is no lack of the female sex in our midst, and yet how few marriages transpire. Erin and Germany are commingling, as they should. They bask in jocund honeymoons and rear healthy offspring, while the American sisterhood pine away in wonderment. No sweethearts, no lovers, no marriage well, too, but in their proper station.
Thus do we talk to the maidens of Los Angeles. In a word, we commend less crinoline and less pretensions.
When the bill exempting stock certificates from taxation was under discussion in the Senate, Senator Chase of Santa Barbara made the following brief and pointed speech:
Mr. President, I am opposed to and shall vote against the bill under consideration. During the debate it has been said that the Constitution does not require double taxation; that when it was under consideration by the people its advocates declared it did not impose double taxation. I care not what was said by its advocates. I read it, as did the people, and I affirm that it permits and does require double taxation. Moreover, I stand here and assert that I am in favor of double taxation. The rich have escaped taxation so long that double taxation for a while will not be injustice. Therefore, Mr. President, I shall vote against the bill under consideration.
