WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY...AUGUST 3, 1881 The condition of the President continues to give encouragement to his physicians. He is developing a healthy appetite, and his strength is slowly returning. He will be removed from the White House as soon as it is safe to do so, as he is in constant danger from the malarial atmosphere of Washington. The word "Stalwart" was first used by Secretary Blaine in 1877 to designate those Republicans who were unwilling to give up hostility to the South as a political motive; but now a "Stalwart" is merely a Republican politician who gets angry when he cannot have all the offices he wants for himself and friends. A railway manager in the West, who is also a scientist, says that railroads are rain producers, and that rains follow the iron track in belts on each side. He assigns as the main cause for the meteorological changes the electro-magnetism developed in the rails in their continuous line, and the concussion of the atmosphere by the jar of the train. Gladstone, the English Premier, is original in everything that he does. He was taken sick a few weeks ago, and his physicians ordered him to take a season of rest. He obeyed them so far as to abstain from his ordinary avocations, but he put in his time in THE LAND OF THE FREE. "America, the land of the free and the home of the brave," is a very pretty sentiment, but it is sometimes construed in a manner not at all flattering to lovers of this country. Every Russian Nihilist, every German Communist, every Italian bandit—every outlaw in Europe who finds his particular country too hot for him, flees to America for protection in a matter-of-fact way that should cause Americans to blush, if such a thing was possible. And when the Nihilist who has attempted murder, the Communist who has failed to put his principles into practice through police vigilance, or the bandit who cut off his captive's ears and had to dodge to this country to evade the hot pursuit, arrive in New York, they are met by a deputation of admiring countrymen and a brass band, and receive a public welcome as if they were great statesmen or successful warriors. Is this an overdrawn statement? Let us see. Leo Hartmann, the Nihilist, is now in New York. He is receiving the admiration of thousands; he is bored by newspaper reporters and is the lion of the hour. Who is Hartmann? He answers this question himself in the columns of the New York "Herald." He details in a circumstantial manner how he arranged to kill the Czar by blowing up the train on which he traveled towards Moscow, and while lamenting the failure of that particular scheme, finds consolation in the subsequent murder of the Russian ruler. And what is Hartmann's mission to this country? It is, to use his own language, to "gain the sympathy of the American people for these struggling A COOL COMMUNITY."

He was taken sick a few weeks ago, and his physicians ordered him to take a season of rest. He obeyed them so far as to abstain from his ordinary avocations, but he put in his time in comparing the revised New Testament with the original Greek, and the result of this recreation will be embodied in a pamphlet which he will soon publish. A CITY OF MEXICO special of a recent date says: "There have been deposited in the National Pawn $200-281 toward the payment of the American debt. There are at present employed on the Central Railroad 12,687 workmen. The official journal publishes a statement of the subventions to railroads to be paid this year, showing a total amount of $40,517,500." MR. JENKINS, of the British Agricultural Commission, explains why the farmers of Holland are successful. One man works a farm of 200 acres, with the aid of his wife, his daughter, four sons and four hired laborers, and the sons work harder than the laborers. The old man is credited with possessing $125,000. One old lady of eighty-three does her own housework and makes her own butter, and is worth $125,000. The avenues of occupation for women are broadening. There are in San Francisco several women barbers—a vocation, it is said, that is largely followed by females in many Eastern cities. In Mulberry street, New York, can be seen the sign: "Mrs. Gill, Boot and Shoe Maker. Repairing Neatly Done." Mrs. Gill is not only a cobbler herself, but the widow of a cobbler, and her father was a cobbler. She supports her young family of six children by her industry.

He details in a circumstantial manner how he arranged to kill the Czar by blowing up the train on which he traveled towards Moscow, and while lamenting the failure of that particular scheme, finds consolation in the subsequent murder of the Russian ruler. And what is Hartmann's mission to this country? It is, to use his own language, to "gain the sympathy of the American people for those struggling for liberty in Russia. If there is no change of policy the Czar will die, and if his successor pursues a similar policy he will be killed, and so on indefinitely." And this is the programme to which Americans are asked to give sympathy and encouragement! This lionizing of an avowed murderer is no isolated case. Instances without number could be cited. We may mention that Esposito, an Italian brigand who has committed crimes innumerable, is now in a New York jail awaiting extradition, and his case is evoking lively sympathy among a large class—a sympathy which found expression in the murder at New Orleans of the man who was supposed to have given the information which led to Esposito's arrest. Justus Schwab and Communists of that stripe are regarded as heroes; and although they publicly rejoiced at the Czar's murder and predicted a similar fate for Jay Gould, Vanderbilt and other rich "monopolists," the laws of free America are such that these inciters to murder could make their foul boasts with impunity. A couple of weeks ago, several barrels containing dynamite and other explosives were shipped from New York to England in two passenger vessels. The presence of the dangerous packages was discovered at the Liverpool docks. The result was an intense excitement throughout England, and diplomatic correspondence between the Queen's counselors and this Government is now being carried on in regard thereto. All mystery in regard to the shipment of the infernal machines has been dissipated by the cool avowal of P. M. Crowe, of Peoria, Illinois, who says that he made the machines, that there were more in process of manufacture, and that they Our school commences next, 8th inst., with Warren as teachers.

Dunn, keeps a grocer lost her sight from six 6 years of age, and ruptured the ball of Eastern cities. In Mulberry street, New York, can be seen the sign: "Mrs. Gill, Boot and Shoe Maker. Repairing Neatly Done." Mrs. Gill is not only a cobbler herself, but the widow of a cobbler, and her father was a cobbler. She supports her young family of six children by her industry. If the culture of sugar-beets and the manufacture of sugar therefrom ever gets to be a prominent industry in this county, the beekeepers will have to corral their "stock" closer than they now do, if the said "stock" develops such a penchant for beet sugar as the French bees have. The Parisian refiners of beet-root sugar recently petitioned the Prefect of the Seine to banish the bees from the neighborhood of the city, and their prayer has been granted. A refiner in the Thirteenth Arrondissement estimates his losses at 25,000 francs. Will not the following paragraph explain the origin of some of the fires which originate in the grain fields and among the brush in the mountains: "A correspondent of a London paper warns people against throwing broken bottles among sun-dried grass or heath at this time of the year, as the bottoms of such bottles frequently act as burning glasses. The Australians know that extensive and damaging bush fires have taken place in Australia in consequence of broken bottles having been carelessly thrown down among the dried scrub. So, too, camp fires at Aldershot and bush fires on English commons may have their origin in parts of broken bottles acting as burning glasses." The Supreme Court has rendered three decisions in the case of the City of Los Angeles v. Mellus. By the failure of the Temple & Workman Bank at the time the defendant was City Treasurer, the city lost a considerable amount of money, and it brought suit against Mellus's bondsmen to recover the sum due. But in some manner all the bondsmen who are solvent managed to get released from liability, and the decisions mentioned affects only one bondman, who is insolvent. Little comfort can be extracted by the plaintiff from such a decision. At Nevada City on Wednesday Tom Byrne, a gambler and outlaw who has been a terror to the community for some time past, was fatally shot by special policeman E. A. Wetmore during a bar-room dispute. A COOL COMMUNICATION. BOLSAGRANDE, August 3d, 1881. SWELTERING EDITOR.—I am not quite sure whether that word occurs in Worcester, but it is expressive these days; and while I could not permit its use as a good Anaheimer were I in Anaheim, down here in our "cottage by the sea," with the fresh cool air of the ocean fanning us, we imagine it applies to the sanctum of the GAZETTE by contrast, if not an acknowledged fact. While we see numerous letters from others of surrounding ruscating centers in your columns, this, which appears likely to be par-excellence the watering place of Anaheim, has not been represented. But we are not without interest to some of the pleasure and health seekers who are gathering around the northwestern point of "the Mesa" where Major Wicks has settled his summer home, and Messrs. Saxton, Smith and Holdridge have built neat cottages on the bluff overlooking the beach and bathing ground, and taking in the rolling wave, the dashing surf and distant views of the Pacific's far horizon, broken with Catalina's rugged outline, and Point Pedro's projecting promontory, while the curve of the great bay embracing Bolsa Chica, Anaheim Landing and the islands of Wilmington harbor is a line of beauty, just sufficiently distant to receive the enchantment distance lends. The bathing ground is the fine almost level sand beach, over which the surges of the sea roll in waist-high billows, making bathing delightful without danger, and being entirely free from that pest of the Coast, the stingray, is far preferable to many of our summer resorts. Among the visitors who have run down for a short time are several families from Orange under canvass, MacPhersons, Canfields, Strongs and others, while the Revs. Marquis and Robinson from Westminster and Messrs. Guy Smith, E. Barr and families of our own town have dropped in for a sniff of salt air, and Mr. Robt. Hall and wife took a glimpse of the ocean by moonlight then hied them to their home in the highlands. More anon concerning the fisheries. C. BREES. WESTMINSTER ITEMS. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Bishop E. O. Haven died at Salem, Oregon, Tuesday afternoon. The immediate cause of death was uremia; aged 60. No decision has as yet been rendered by the Supreme Court in the matter of the election for county officers. John B. Defyent, who lives in Sonora, Tuolumne county, is seven and one-half feet in height, and his boots each measure seventeen and one-half inches in length. In San Francisco on Wednesday, Mary P. Lyons committed suicide by taking strychnine, because her mother forbade her to leave the house during the evening. At Napa on Saturday, Willie Pinkham, eight years old, a son of Captain Pinkham, tell into the river and was drowned. The body has been recovered. County Clerk Stuart of San Francisco has left for parts unknown. He is a defanlter to the tune of about $50,000. Gen. John McComb has been appointed to succeed him. F. E. Steinman, the bailiff of the Railroad Commissioners, was arrested in San Francisco on Monday evening on a charge of being drunk, and upon another of having unlawfully carried a firearm. When arrested he had a revolver full cocked up his sleeve. Says the San Diego Union: It is again rumored that the Southern Pacific Railroad Company will begin at an early day to extend their road from Santa Ana, Los Angeles county, to San Diego. It is also reported that the Company has been negotiating for water-frontage at Roseville, where there is a considerable scope of very deep water near the shore, necessitating only a limited amount of wharfage. The distance from the present terminus of the Southern Pacific road at Santa Ana to this city is about ninety-three miles, and the grade is a comparatively easy one. No one doubts that if this Company desires to come to San Diego, they can do so in a very short time. But do they wish to come here at present? Their extensive improvements at Wilmington would seem to negative such a movement. No doubt they will eventually make a terminus at this harbor. If business increases, as we all expect it will, and competition be- Fatal Explosions. New York, August 2.—A Mazatlan (Mexico) special gives an account of an explosion in the Government magazine caused by a guard smoking. The building was situated in the center of the business portion of the town. The explosion completely razed the magazine and destroyed many houses in the immediate vicinity, besides doing considerable damage to a number of others, and killing a large number of people. Immediately after the explosion soldiers and citizens went to work to recover the bodies of those known to be buried in the ruins. Seventy bodies were recovered, among them that of Francisco Pena, District Judge. The number of killed and wounded is not yet known, as several bodies are said to be still buried in the ruins. A regular press dispatch says that a whole square was blown up, and many families are buried in the ruins. The explosion occurred Thursday last at 6 A.M. Paris, August 2.—In an explosion in a mine at Lourches, Department of the Nord, ten persons were killed and twenty badly injured. Peoria, Ill., August 2.—Of the eighteen persons badly injured by the explosion at Woolner distillery, ten have died and five more will doubtless die. They all inhaled hot steam and are suffering terribly. Ottawa, July 31.—Census returns show that the population of the Dominion is 4,-350,933, an increase of 680,498 in the past ten years. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE Great Eastern! The managers of the Great Eastern take WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Our school commences here on Monday next, 8th inst., with Mr. Raney and Miss Warren as teachers. We would here draw the attention of parents to the new amendment of the School Law, Section 8, Subdivision 4, where will be found that the appointment will be made "in proportion to the average daily attendance in each district during the preceding year." Several of the young men left us last week for San Diego to work on the railroad, but we met this evening Messrs. Larter and West doubtless singing to themselves "there's no place like home." The Rev. L. H. Robinson has arrived here from the Sandwich Islands and occupies the Presbyterian pulpit. Last Friday evening quite a large party assembled at the residence of Mr. Mathew Rogers to celebrate the 19th birthday of son Jimmy. After a most sumptuous and bountiful repast, songs and other amusements beguiled the evening away far into the "wee sma' hours." Among the presents received were a valuable gold watch chain from his father and a handsome wall pocket from Mrs. Seibert. We take this opportunity of wishing the young man a happy and successful future, well deserved, as he gains the respect and esteem of all who know him. The cheese factory movement is the talk of our community. It certainly would be a boon to the place, as for dairying this section is unsurpassed. We hear there is to be a meeting at Griswold's grove on Saturday afternoon of those interested. The Rev. B. A. Washburn we believe preaches his last sermon in the M. E. church on Sunday. By the way, we heard this gentleman in a new character the other evening, viz, that of a judge at a trial, which the defendant pronounced a perfect farce and in which remark we cordially agreed. A fine boy arrived at the house of Mr. John Edwards this week. We are glad to hear Mrs. Jesse Davis is considerably better. PHILADELPHIA, July 31.—A great sensation has been caused among Roman Catholics in West Philadelphia by the alleged appearance of the Virgin Mary; first to Mary Agnes Dunn, a girl 18 years of age, who has been blind for twelve years; then to the other girls of her family, and finally to a crowd of visitors. Mary's father, A. J. Dunn, keeps a grocery store. His daughter lost her sight from scarlet fever when about 6 years of age, and four or five years ago nurtured the ball of one eye by striking it vass, MacPhersons, Canfields, Strongs and others, while the Revs. Marquis and Robinson from Westminster and Messrs. Guy Smith, E. Barr and families of our own town have dropped in for a sniff of salt air, and Mr. Robt. Hall and wife took a glimpse of the ocean by moonlight then hied them to their home in the highlands. More anon concerning the fisheries. Yours. C. Brees. NEW YORK, August 2d.—The Tribune's Washington special says: District Attorney Corkhill visited the jail to-day, for the first time in ten days. His visit was in consequence of a notification from Guitteau that he had an important communication to make to him. Upon the entrance of the District Attorney into his cell, Guitteau rose and produced a folded paper. This was found by Mr. Corkhill to be a petition drawn up in the hand of the assassin, and petitioning for his release from jail on bail in the sum of $15,000. Guitteau bases his claim for release on bail upon the fact that the President is now regarded as out of danger, and that his Physicians concur in stating that there is no probability whatever of another relapse. The construction of the petition shows considerable familiarity with the forms and methods of law, and the document throughout is drawn up with a conciseness and exactness that indicates anything but insanity. Guitteau was very anxious that the District Attorney should take prompt action upon his prayer for release, and intimated in the event of a favorable consideration of the petition he would have no difficulty in securing bondsmen in the sum indicated. A queer feature in this matter is how Guitteau has managed to get information as to the favorable condition of the President and opinions expressed by his physiciads. The appearance of the assassin has changed little since his commitment to jail. His complexion has paled somewhat, and he moves with a languor that is slightly different from the lounging manner noticeable at the time of his incarceration. COUNTY School Census. From the school census report for the year 1881, just completed by Mr. J. W. Hinton, County Superintendent of Schools, for transmission to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Herald gleans the following interesting facts: Total number of children between the ages of 5 and 17 years entitled to school money, 10,609; boys white, 5322; negroes, 15; In- PHILADELPHIA, July 31.—A great sensation has been caused among Roman Catholics in West Philadelphia by the alleged appearance of the Virgin Mary; first to Mary Agnes Dunn, a girl 18 years of age, who has been blind for twelve years; then to the other girls of her family, and finally to a crowd of visitors. Mary's father, A. J. Dunn, keeps a grocery store. His daughter lost her sight from scarlet fever when about 6 years of age, and four or five years ago ruptured the ball of one eye by striking it against the edge of a chair, notwithstanding which she can now see ordinary objects dimly, and claims to see the apparition of the Virgin distinctly. She is quite illiterate. Five weeks ago she was siezed with a severe attack of diphtheria. The only indication she gave of consciousness during this period was on one occasion when the family physician, Dr. Hughes, was present, when she suddenly began to sing, and sang a long hymn. The Doctor, however, was convinced that the singing was involuntary, and that the girl was entirely unconscious all the time. Since that time she has been in a very weak condition. Three Sundays ago she told her parents that she expected to see the Virgin Mary that evening, and a crowd of sympathizing Catholic neighbors visited the house to see if her expectations would be realized. As midnight approached many of them began to pray fervently and presently, so her father says, a halo of light appeared on the whitewashed wall of Mary's room, and soon afterward a woman's figure about a foot high, clothed in a white garment and attended by two kneeling angels was clearly portrayed. A crown, glittering with golden rays, was on the head of the figure, and suspended above it was a crucifix. This was not the first time the girl claimed to have seen the vision, but it was the first time it was seen by others. A number of witnesses declared that they saw it. Since that night Mary and her family have seen similar visions three or four times, but by the doctor's orders visitors have been excluded. LIVERPOOL, Aug. 3.—McGrath and MeGavit having pleaded guilty to an attempt to blow up the Town Hall, the jury found them guilty of causing an explosion with intent to endanger life and damage the Town Hall, and McGrath was also found guilty of a knowledge of the explosion at the police office May last. McGrath was sentenced to penal servitude for hfe; McGavit for 15 years. COUNTY SCHOOL CENSUS. From the school census report for the year 1881, just completed by Mr. J. W. Hinton, County Superintendent of Schools, for transmission to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Herald gleans the following interesting facts: Total number of children between the ages of 5 and 17 years entitled to school money, 10,609; boys, white, 5322; negroes, 15; Indian, 11; girls, white 5220, negroes, 13; Indians, 28. Of these 6626 whites, 13 negroes and 11 Indians attended public school; 618 whites, 1 negro and 2 Indians, private schools during the past year. Total number who did not attend any school at any time during the year: whites 3298, negroes 14, Indians 26. Number of Mongolian children 20; attended school 14; number of deaf and dumb 3, blind 1. Nativity: Native born parents, 10,440; one parent foreign, 1496; both parents toreign, 309; children foreign born 502. Number of babies born since June, 1880, 1001; boys 502, girls 499. NEW YORK, July 28th.—The New York Evening Post says: It was announced last week that the first lot of peaches ever brought from California in sound condition has appeared upon the market and were selling at satisfactory rates. It is thought by the New York dealers that the season may have something to do with this present success, it being well known that fruit will keep longer in one year than in another. It is too soon yet to say whether the importation of peaches will assume the importance of the California pear and plum business, but the trade has proved sufficiently profitable this year to encourage larger purchases next year. The net profits upon a car of peaches holding 400 crates is $600 when they arrive here in good condition. The cost of the fruit is, for 600 cubic feet $1100, allowed $100 for spoiled fruit. Peaches sell readily here for $6 per crate. All the plums now in market are from California and nine-tenths of the pears. The business of sending California plums and pears to London is growing rapidly, there being but little danger of spoiling in the transit, while boxes of pears are worth $6 in London, though the freight is only 50 cents a box. Our merchants do not send the fruit to England, but sell to English shippers in need of freight for the other side. All the California freight which arrives here and is unfit for sale on the market is bought by the canneries, to whom the importer goes when all other customers fail.

There are many ways of conducting a grocery store; but to be successful in these days of close competition and with an exacting and discriminating public, certain essential points are required which few possess. The great success of my AMERICAN CASH STORE, 48 & 50 Spring St., Los Angeles. Cal., Is due to the fact that it commands in an eminent degree every advantage necessary to make it the leading grocery store on the southern coast. The heavy business I am doing enables me to keep my stock always fresh and clean. I buy my goods only for CASH, from FIRST HANDS, And in a WHOLESALE WAY. I am enabled to do so by having my house in San Francisco to do my buying and to there dispose of any surplus stock over and above the requirements of the Los Angeles store. To further facilitate and insure the safe handling of wholesale quantities of merchandise, I have just opened ANOTHER STORE in STOCKTON, And am now in position to buy largely enough to insure the lowest cost on every article bought. Those dealing with me will share these advantages, in being SERVED PROMPTLY —WITH— ANOTHER STORE in STOCKTON, And am now in position to buy largely enough to insure the lowest cost on every article bought. Those dealing with me will share these advantages, in being SERVED PROMPTLY —WITH— FIRST-CLASS GOODS, —and AT— LOWER PRICES! Than they can buy for elsewhere. It is of course quite in the range of possibilities that some one of our neighbors on whose toes I may happen to tread, will "get up his back" and try to sell at my prices; but as he can do so only at a loss to himself, whilst I am making a small profit, such "spurts" are of a short duration, and in fact at no time do they cover the whole ground, since such reductions are always confined to a few staples, merely to catch the eye. Since the prices of the AMERICAN CASH STORE have justly become THE STANDARD By which those of other concerns are measured, it is evident that it must be to the interest of the consumer to at once GO TO HEADQUARTERS, And not uselessly risk having to pay more for his goods than they are worth.
