WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY... JAN. 10, 1835 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. Cleveland has resigned as Governor of New York, and his successor is Lieut-Governor Hill. Dennis McCarty, by virtue of his office as President of the Senate, becomes Lieut-Governor of the State. The sale of postage stamps for the third quarter of 1834 were $10,017,748, or $578,-002 less than in the corresponding period of 1833. The reduction of postage accounts for the falling off, but the difference is not as much as the authorities anticipated. Man's life has been heretofore encompassed about with perils enough, but the death of Rev. Dr. Sweeney in New York the other day shows that an additional and common danger beats it. The removal of a corn from the reverend gentleman's foot was followed by gangrene and death. The Chicago Socialists are a bad lot. They met in convention the other day, and dynamite and murder were openly advocated as a means of bringing the world to their way of thinking. It is quite possible to allow too much license of tongue. These loud-mouthed frauds ought to be suppressed. That's right. Go for him while he is down. The Masonic Cemetery Association has brought suit against Mrs. Sharon's husband for desecrating a grave. Sarah put Bill's old socks in a grave as a love charm, and during the divorce trial Bill had the grave opened to see if they were still there. Hence these few tears. The sale of pews in Beecher's church was moderately successful. The premiums realized from the sale of all the seats aggregated $15,399, and the rentals added make the amount realized $27,256. Last year the sum realized was $34,489. The highest ever realized was in 1879, when the amount was $68,997. Beecher was exceedingly cheerful at the conclusion of the sale, and seemed to think the result was a vindication of his Board of Supervisors. The Supervisors met on Monday. The old Board, after passing the usual complimentary resolutions, adjourned since die and the new Board proceeded to organize by electing Omar Macy as chairman. The other new officers are Jacob Ross, James Foord, George Hinds and Milton Lindley. The Chairman jappointed the following Committees: Finance—Lindley, Foord and Hinds. Roads and Highways—Foord, Hinds and Ross. Hospital—Macy, Hinds and Ross. Ex-District Attorney White asked leave until the February meeting of the Board to file his annual report. Granted. Messrs. Foord, Hinds and Lindley were appointed a special committee to confer with the City Council in relation to a judgment obtained by the county against the city of Los Angeles, said judgment having been entered January 3, 1885, for fines and forfeitures collected by the City Justice of the Peace for Los Angeles. The District Attorney was empowered to appoint an assistant at a salary of $125 per month. Jacob Soares was appointed Court House janitor at a salary of $75 per month. The contract for boarding county prisoners was let to Sheriff Gard at 50 cents per head for the term of one year or at the pleasure of the Board. The Clerk was authorized to advertise bids until Monday, February 2d, at 10 A.M., for printing the delinquent tax list and also for burying the indigent dead. Supervisor Hinds moved that the County Tax Collector prepare his delinquent tax list for the printer in alphabetical order. Carried. TUESDAY, Jan. 6. Mr. Foord moved]that Dr. Walter Lindley be appointed County Physician and Superintendent of the County Farm and Hospital, said appointment to take effect February 1, 1885. Mr. Hinds nominated Dr. J. Hannon. The vote stood: Lindley, 3; Hannon, 2. Dr. Lindley was declared elected. The salary of County Physician was fixed at $100 per month, and the salary of Superintendent of County Farm and Hospital was fixed at $83.33 per month. The District Attorney having reported that the Board had authority to pay a salary to Superintendent Hinton as Secretary of the A Septempleous Death. The occasion of the week in Los Angeles is the sudden death on Tuesday evening on an aged capitalist, D. W. Holman, under some what mupitions circumstances. On the 20th of December he was married to Mrs. M. Lewis of 115 Geary street, San Francisco, on a lady about fifty-three years old known as a magnetic healer. The newly-made Mrs. Holman remained with her age husband but one day after the matrimonial knot was tied, and on January 1st she returned to San Francisco as she alleged close up her extensive business. Before leaving Los Angeles she prepared a bottle of medicine which she directed her husband to take during her absence, saying that it would make him sleep. The first three physicians were called, but could afford the patient no relief and he died about 6:00 o'clock in the evening. Mr. Holman was 7 years old and reported to be worth between $15,000 or $20,000. He came to Los Angeles about two years ago from Dennison, Tex. He has a divorced wife and a grown daughter in Los Angeles. He also has a marriaged six times and been divorced from his numerous wives. A New Religious Sect. PHILADELPHIA, January 6.-An interesting legal point in connection with the granting of charters' incorporation will shortly come up for decision before the Court of Common Pleas. The "Jelimir Mira Mitte" Congregation of the Lord" has applied for a charter. The application is resisted by the friends of the woman who founded the church and for the worship of whom the congregation meets. The sect was invented two years ago by a woman who claimed that she had had a revelation from the Lord that she was the third person of the Holy Trinity. The woman's name was Anna Meister but after the alleged revelation she assumed that of "Jelimir Mira Mitte." The creatureous Germans believed her story, formed a church, purchased a house, and became so infatuated with the new religion that they deeded the house to Miss Meister. Several members are rich, and no expense was spared in fitting up the house, in which it The use of pews in Becher's church was moderately successful. The premiums realized from the sale of all the seats aggregated $15,329, and the rentals added make the amount realized $7,256. Last year the sum realized was $34,489. The highest ever realized was in 1879, when the amount was $68,997. Becher was exceedingly cheerful at the conclusion of the sale, and seemed to think the result was a vindication of his political course. Gen. Grant has written the following characteristic letter to Cyrus W. Field: "Through the press and otherwise, I learn that you, with the aid of other friends of mine, are engaged in raising a subscription for my benefit. I appreciate both the motive and friendship which have dictated this course on your part, but on mature reflection I regard it as due to myself and family to decline this proffered generosity. I regret that I did not make this known earlier." A San Francisco policeman saw a man carrying a bundle and acting in a suspicious manner. He gave chase and captured the man, and the bundle proved to be the body of a dead child, wrapped in a shawl. The story is a pathetic one. The man's child had died, his wife was sick and his affection for them brought on a mild type of insanity. On the night of the day on which his child was buried he went to the cemetery and examined the body of his beloved little one, and was carrying it to his lodging house when arrested. Among other nonsense we read of in the press is the new fashion of determining character by finger nails. Long and slender nails, it is said, show imagination, poetic feeling and laziness; long and flat nails show good sense, gravity, and prudence; wide and short nails, anger, obstinacy, rudeness, and the love of controversy; dry and brittle nails, anger, cruelty, and fierce quarrelsomeness; curved and claw-like nails, hypocrisy and wickedness; soft nails, feebleness of body and mind; and bitten nails, dissipation and folly. Long and slender nails also show that the possessor can dexterously flip a jack or whisk the fourth ace out of the pack. Spraking of the failure of the New Orleans Exposition, and the probable asking for more money, the Tribune's New Orleans special says: The pleasant rumors noticed on December 21st, to the effect that a considerable part of the $1,000,000 appropriated at the last session of Congress found its way into Chairman Barnum's Campaign Committee, continue to excite comment and seem to be believed by men who have privately investigated them. So far as can be learned, however, none of the Exposition officials thought the rumors worthy of notice, and if anything is to be done to ascertain their truth or falsity it will probably be Mr. Poord moved that Dr. Walter Lindley be appointed County Physician and Superintendent of the County Farm and Hospital, said appointment to take effect February 1, 1885. Mr. Hinds nominated Dr. J. Hannon. The vote stood: Lindley, 3; Hannon, 2. Dr. Lindley was declared elected. The salary of County Physician was fixed at $100 per month, and the salary of Superintendent of County Farm and Hospital was fixed at $83.33 per month. The District Attorney having reported that the Board had authority to pay a salary to Superintendent Hinton as Secretary of the Board of Education, the salary was fixed at $83.33 per month. On motion of Mr. Hinda, the petition of the citizens of Anaheim asking for an appropriation of $1000 to build an embankment to protect said town from the overflow of the Santa Ana river, was referred to the District Attorney for his opinion as to the legality of making such appropriation. Mr. Ross was authorized to have the bridge over the Coyote creek repaired. C. C. Brown was elected road overseer of Pasadena Road District, vice A. O. Bristol, resigned. The following was adopted: Resolved. That our Senator and Assembly men in the State Legislature are hereby requested to procure if possible the passage by the present Legislature of an act in substance with that presented this Board for consideration and that a certified copy of this resolution be attached to said proposed act and forwarded by the Clerk to said Senator and Assemblymen. Adopted. [NOTE: The proposed act is to the effect that the Board of Supervisors may be given power to grant additional aid to certain county officers, as the Tax Collector, who unless otherwise thus aided will be compelled to resign on account of inability to perform the duties of their respective offices.] John H. Pratt was appointed Justice of the Peace for San Fernando with bond at $500. Messrs. Ross and Foord were appointed a committee to confer with the County Assessor in regard to county maps. A communication from the City Council of the City of Los Angeles in regard to noxious insects was referred to a committee consisting of Messrs. Lindley, Ross and Foord. WEDNESDAY, Jan. 7. District Attorney reported that the law does not require the delinquent tax list to be printed alphabetically. The opinion of the District Attorney in the matter of the petition of citizens of Anaheim, asking for the construction of a levee on the banks of the Santa Ana river to prevent overflow was rendered as follows: The section under which the attorney for said petitioners claimed that this Board was authorized to grant the appropriation, is subdivision 26, of section 4040 of the Political Code, which, as amended is Section 35 of the new "County Government Bill," so called. But upon careful consideration of said section I am unable to find in any such authority.

21st, to the effect that a considerable part of the $1,000,000 appropriated at the last session of Congress found its way into Chairman Barnum's Campaign Committee, continue to excite comment and seem to be believed by men who have privately investigated them. So far as can be learned, however, none of the Exposition officials thought the rumors worthy of notice, and if anything is to be done to ascertain their truth or falsity, it will probably be necessary for the Senate to take the initiative. The citizens of California now in attendance at the World's Exposition held meeting in the Government building the other day and adopted a memorial to the California Legislature, reciting that liberal appropriations had been made by many States and Territories as well as foreign countries for the representation of their industries, and that they have shown remarkable enterprise in the magnitude of their displays. The exhibit from California has been left wholly to individuals and private enterprise. While the exhibit is creditable, as far as it goes, much more might be accomplished by State assistance in resuming the fruit and enlarging the other exhibits, for which there is yet abundance of time. The Legislature convened on Monday. The anticipated trouble over the question as to whether the seating of the newly-elected Senators would be contested was avoided by Lt. Govorner Daggelt recognizing the new Senator. Parks of Yuba was elected Speaker of the House over Hazard of Los Angeles. The deadlock in the State Senate over the election of a President pro tem is delaying the Senatorial fight. Sargent is ahead, but the delay is said to be against him. His strength is given as follows: Senators-Boone, De Long, McClure, Parkinson, Parry, Kontin, Sasa Vroeman; Assemblymen—Banbury, Douglas, Firebaugh, Franklin, French, Hanad, Heath, Jones, Jordan, Lafferty, Leod, Lorrell, May, McGlashen, McJunkin, McMurray, Parks, Raven, Rosebury, Salivan, Walrath, Ward of San Francisco, and Yuka. This is nine short of a majority. It will be rather surprising to many of the friends of Hazard and Banbury, Assemblymen from this county, to find that they are opposed as supporters of Sargent. District Attorney reported that the law does not require the delinquent tax list to be printed alphabetically. The opinion of the District Attorney in the matter of the petition of citizens of Anaheim, asking for the construction of a levee on the banks of Santa Ana river to prevent overflow was rendered as follows: The section under which the attorney for said petitioners claimed that this Board was authorized to grant the appropriation, is subdivision 26, of section 4040 of the Political Code, which, as amended is Section 35 of the new "County Government Bill," so called. But upon careful consideration of said section I am unable to find in it any such authority. By Section 54 of said bill the Board is authorized to provide for widening, deepening and otherwise improving certain streams for use as public highways. But I am unable to find any law authorizing the Board of Supervisors to appropriate money for the purpose designated in said petition, and my opinion is that you possess no legal authority to do so. GEORGE M. HOLTON, District Attorney. Supervisor Hinds moved that the Clerk prepare five ballots. Upon three of such ballots there shall be written the words "Long term," and upon the other two shall be written the words "Short term." Said ballots to be placed in a box, and each Supervisor shall draw one therefrom, and such Supervisor as shall draw a ballot upon which is written "Long term" shall hold office for four years, and the other members drawing "Short term" ballots shall hold office for two years. Carried. The following members of the Board were designated for four-year terms: Oscar Maey, George Hinds and Jacob Ross. Milton Lindley and James Poord were chosen to serve terms of two years. On motion the present to this Board of a crayon portrait of Chief Justice Marshall, presented by Hon. Y. Sepulveda, late Judge of the Superior Court, is hereby accepted, and the Clerk notified to express the thanks of this Board to the donor of the same. In the matter of the extension of Melina Avenue, Pasadena, Charles Droadda, J. E. Debina and E. T. Wright were appointed viewers. In the matter of the San Pedro school district bonds, the resolution authorizing the issue of $800 bonds for furnishing the said school was passed. $20 was allowed District Attorney for office rent; $25 allowed County Surveyor for same purpose; and Public Administrator for the same purpose. The Tax Collector was allowed $20 union for preparing the delinquent tax list alphabetically instead of numerally. Sharon's Ducets W. H. L. Barnes filed an amended answer to the complaint in the Sharon divorce suit on Monday afternoon, to deny the allegations of the plaintiff in regard to the money matters of the defendant. The answer denies generally that the plaintiff and defendant accumulated $10,000,000 by speculation in stock, or that the plaintiff at any time ever acquired any interest of any description in the property of the defendant. The defendant also denies that he is worth more than $5,000,000; and says his income, instead of being $100,000 a month, as alleged by the plaintiff, is only $30,000 a month. In filing the amended answer W. H. L. Barnes stated that he would have denied the allegations of the plaintiff in regard to money matters in his original answer if he had thought it at all possible for her to get a judgment. A PLAIN speaking judge in Tooby, of San Francisco. He prefixed his sentence of J. W. Ingram for shooting Supervisor Abbott with the following explicit statement of his belief: I do not it proper to say this in year favor; that the jury disregarded the law and their oaths when they swore to give you a fair trial. They have done nothing of the kind. On the trial you admitted shooting Mr. Abbott, and that you did it purposely in self-defense of your own life. You admitted, therefore, at least a battery. I never saw such an utter disregard of duty on the part of twelve men, and I hope I shall never again witness such an exhibition in a court. That jury had no more respect for their writings than so many highwaymen; and you are no more guilty of no assault than your offenses were; or the District Attorney or myself. The judgement of the law and the sentence of the court is that you may be imprisoned in the County jail for five days or three months.

Steel can be written upon or engraved by first cleaning it with oil and then spreading a coating of melted beeswax upon it. The writing can then be done on the beeswax, with any sharp instrument, and the lines and marks thus made should be painted with a fine-brush dipped in a liquid made of one ounce of nitric acid and one-sixth of an ounce of muriatic acid. When the written lines are filled with this liquid, it should be allowed to remain five minutes, and then the article should be dipped in water and afterward cleaned. So heavy is the flood of applicants for postoffice, collectorships, clerkships, and other fruits of victory that is pouring in upon the Democratic Representatives from the "hungry and thirsty" followers that, in order to escape submersion and reduce their expenses on account of postage stamps, they have found it necessary to call the printer to their aid. Many of them, it seems, have laid in supplies of postal cards, upon the back of which is a printed legend in substance as follows: "Your letter of——date, soliciting an appointment as——at——has been duly received and filed for consideration at the proper time." Swainsboro (Ga.), Dec. 29. There is a man living in Emanuel county who, forty years ago, sold his wife for a jug of whisky, and was an honored guest at the wedding.

A fatal truth spoken in jest was that of a farmer's man in Delaware county, N.Y., who, a few days ago, was drowned while trying to ford the river near that place.

A dramatic incident is reported in connection with the death of the Bishop of London, which occurred suddenly in London Monday.

Hard Hearted Selfishness ARE WE COMPelled TO DRINK PAINT FOR TEA? It is a startling circumstance that while the Japanese government is doing all in its power to discourage the manufacture of imperfectly cured and chemically colored teas, our own government should virtually nullify the efforts of the sister kingdom, by permitting so large a proportion as 7 per cent. of adulterations to pass the Tea Inspectors at ports of entry, without challenge. It is easy to guess but hard to specify the "power behind the throne" which is responsible for this lukewarm legislation. It is a comfort, however, to know that the public is not compelled to awallow the prescribed percentage of coloring matter which pays duty as tea.
