WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY... NOVEMBER 7, 1865 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The San Diego Union of last Saturday was a very complete eight-page newspaper. It gave a complete list of exhibits at the Fair in San Diego, and brought the back country to the front in graphic style. The official vote on the constitutional amendments at the election held in Ohio on October 13th was canvassed Saturday. The total vote was 743,453. The amendment to abolish October elections was carried by about 537,000, and the amendment to change the terms of township officers from one to three years received 469,000 votes. The Governor has issued a proclamation declaring the amendments carried. An organized effort to vote was made in New York on Tuesday by women in nearly every district of the State. It is not definitely known whether any woman had actually accomplished her purpose of voting. It was only last winter that the Woman's Suffrage Party came to the conclusion that women could vote under the Constitution of the State, and consequently, for the first time, a considerable number attempted to exercise what they thought to be their right. It is said that next year the women of the State will make a similar attempt in large numbers, if it is found that any number of women have voted in the last election. The controversy between the Government and John Roach as to the steam transport Dolphin has been partially settled. The government accepts the vessel, leaving to the courts the question of her value. Secretary Whitney says: "Her value as a naval vessel shall be allowed at contract price; if she is found in all respects up to the requirements legally binding upon you in construction; otherwise she shall be taken at such loss sum as shall be found necessary to be spent upon her to make her up, in all respects, to such standard. In other words, State Horticultural Society. At the last meeting of the society a communication was read from Felix Gillet upon the subject of prunes, in which he asserted that nowhere in France, or any other part of Europe, were prunes produced in such perfection as in California, the claims of foreign prune-growers to the contrary notwithstanding. J. A. Hixson did not think that there was much in the names. The fruit sells by its looks. He believed that the Gross or Hungarian prunes were worth more to the acre for the Eastern market than any other kind, on account of their large size and fine appearance. Mr. West thought sufficient attention was not paid to the subject of grafting, and Mr. Rixford believed that the preference given to the Gross when dried was owing to the method of curing, to which Prof. Hilgard agreed, stating that it was advisable to dry the prunes at a low temperature, and slowly. Mr. Hixson stated that the trouble with our California fruit is that it is dried too much, and Mr. West stated that in France prunes were not really dried at all, but baked in their own steam in an oven. Dr. Kumball did not think there was a future for prune-raisers, as he expected to see the price go down to 3 cents. Mr. Wilcox believed these prices were no indication of what we should obtain for our fruit. He had faith in California and her products. He believed that we should very shortly be sending our fruit East at 1 cent per pound slow freight, or 1½ cents at passenger-train speed, and then prune-raising would pay, if not now. A. T. Hatch of Suisun endorsed these remarks, stating that he believed the time would come when we would receive two or three times as much for our fruit as could be obtained for foreign varieties. All that is necessary is to produce the best quality and to learn how to properly cure and prepare it for the market. The Elections.

PORTLAND, Or., N. terday of the Chinese c The controversy between the Government and John Roach as to the steam transport Dolphin has been partially settled. The government accents the vessel, leaving to the courts the question of her value. Secretary Whitney says: "Her value as a naval vessel shall be allowed at contract price, if she is found in all respects up to the requirements legally binding upon you in construction; otherwise she shall be taken at such loss sum as shall be found necessary to be spent upon her to make her up, in all respects, to such standard. In other words, the government takes her and we expedite the determination by court whether she is taken and accepted as for valid and completed contract or in satisfaction of a lien." The clerk preparing the assessment roll of the city and county of San Francisco for the Tax Collector are instructed for the present not to touch any property on which there is a mortgage. The reason of this order is that in several instances it is found that property is mortgaged for more than its assessed value, and the question arises as to whether the owner shall be taxed according to the assessed or the mortgage value, rather, as to whether the 12½ per cent increase for purposes of taxation shall be made on the assessed or the mortgage value. A determined stand will probably be made against the increase of 12½ per cent, being made on the mortgages themselves, some than of the bankers of the city having spoken their mind very plainly on the subject. Titus is in successful operation in Eastern cities corporations generally known as "The Real Estate Title Insurance Company," and, as the title indicates, their object is to issue titles to real estate. A purchaser of real estate, instead of having the title searched and passed upon by a lawyer, can get to these corporations and get their policy of insurance, after allowing them due time to search the records. The Philadelphia corporation of this kind charges, "for insurance premiums and conveyancing (including deed, searches and recording) on amounts of $2000 and under, $50; on each additional $1000, $250." This one payment protects the assured so long as he or his heirs are the owners of the property. There is great need of such a corporation in this State, and we have no doubt that such a one will be organized before long. POSTMASTER PARKER of Berlin, Sangamon county, Ill., is a real, old-fashioned, Stalwart Black Republican. He is the most zealous, rancorous, offensive partisan conceivable, and fairly lives to spend his voice and his dollars in the cause. Mrs. Parker, his wife, on the contrary, is a Democrat of almost ferocious zeal. She hates all Black Republicans, except her husband, with a perfect hatred, and during the campaign she keeps even him on short commons, so that she can never see him. Hill, Democratic candidate for Governor of New York, is elected by a majority of about 12,000. The city ticket put up by Tammany was elected; their candidate for Sheriff received a majority of about 12,000. The Legislature will be Democratic. In Massachusetts, Robinson (Republican) is elected by 22,000 plurality. In Pennsylvania, Quay (Republican) is elected by 35,000. All changes of figures in that State show Republican gains. In Maryland the Democratic State ticket was elected by 30,000 majority. The Democratic majority in the Legislature on joint ballot will be 99, thus securing a Democratic successor to Senator Gorman. In Iowa there is between 12,000 and 13,000 Republican majority. In Virginia the Democratic majority is nearly 16,000. In New Jersey there will be a Republican majority of nine on joint ballot of the Legislature, insuring a Republican Senator. His Wife a Chinawoman. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 31. Among the passengers by the steamer Gallic from Hong Kong yesterday was an Englishman who, during his residence in China, had married a Chinese woman and by whom he has six children. On his attempting to bring his wife and children ashore this morning the customs authorities interfered, and although quite willing to permit him to land would not let his wife or children go ashore. The Englishman kicked up a terrible row. He showed a certificate from the English Consul at Pekin, and insisted on being allowed to land them. He said that his wife on marriage with him became a British subject. He claimed that he was en route to Victoria, but scorned the idea of applying to the Chinese Consul for a transportation certificate. Seeing however, that this was the only alternative, he decided to profit by it, and started to look up the office of the Chinese Consul. Gas and Oil.

He is the most zealous, rancorous, offensive partisan conceivable, and fairly lives to spend his voice and his dollars in the cause. Mrs. Parker, his wife, on the contrary, is a Democrat of almost ferocious zeal. She hates all Black Republicans, except her husband, with a perfect hatred, and during the campaign she keeps even him on short commons, so that she can save money to contribute to the Democratic funds. Complaints have been coming to First Assistant Postmaster General Stevenson for some time of Mr. Parker's rabid partisanship, and Col. Stevenson finally decided to remove him. The next question was to select a successor, and on thinking the matter over Col. Stevenson decided that about the most uncompromising and worthy Democrat in Berlin was Mrs. Parker, and she has been duly appointed postmaster in place of Mr. Parker, removed. The New York State election is doubtless a surprise to both victor and vanquished. Before Tuesday the Republicans were confident and the Democrats apprehensive. The result shows that there is an element in politics which does its work quietly and vannteth not. Your practical politician makes a tremendous blather and bluster, but he has, after all, but one vote, and his predictions are always based upon his hopes. It cannot be doubted, also, that the result of the election is a quasi endorsement of Cleveland's administration, for in no respect was the defeated Davenport an inferior to the triumphant Hill. The element of personal popularity cut no especial figure in the campaign, and the overshadowing question, outside of the distribution of the spoils, was whether Mr. Cleveland should be rebuked, or whether he should be encouraged. Cleveland is making a good President. The country has little cause to find fault with Republican, we wished for a different New York, but if it encourante continue in his admirer be borne at this equanimity. Gas and Oil [Los Angeles Times] A few days ago mention was made in the Times of the successful artesian well lately sunk on Ivar A. Weid's place at Cahuenga. It seems that the borers have since reached a stratum rich in petroleum, and the oil is flowing freely, ten or fifteen barrels having been taken out already. Milton Thomas has on his farm 5 miles south of the city and 2½ miles west of Comppton a gas well which, he thinks, is one of the finest in the country. The gas vein was struck at a depth of 80 feet, but as gas was not the object in quest, the pipe was driven down to a depth of 130 feet, where a supply of water was obtained. Although the gas flow was presumably cut off, there is still enough of it coming from the well to furnish fuel for Mr. Thomas' tenant for cooking purposes. Mr. Thomas thinks seriously of perforating the pipe at the 80 foot level and making arrangements for utilizing the gas to its fullest extent. PROF. HILGARD well and truly says: "Just as every intelligent fruit grower will carefully consider when planting an orchard what will be the stocks best adapted to his soil and locality, so the grape grower must consider, so far as experience or other considerations can forecast it, which among the resistant grape stocks will be likely to do best in his vineyard. An improper choice will be just as fatal to success in one case as in the other; there is no one stock that is adapted to all cases." As an illustration of how some Democrats regard the President's consistent attitude on Civil Service Reform, we quote the views of the Peoria Democrat: "Send the offensive partisan humbng after the Magwump harlot, and let them go to the devil, or wherever they choose. Remember the words of Holy Writ: 'He who is not for us is against us.' Stand by and reward your party friends and punish your enemies, and all men will well remember that the people voted for a change, and he who gets in the way of an outraged people, or refuses to carry out their will, be he President or Governor, must take the consequences." A Peaceable Eviction TACOMA, W. T., Nov. 3.—This being the day set for the Chinese leaving, at 9:20 A.M., at a signal given, many hundred citizens congregated, marching quietly along the streets to the Chinese houses, and requested the occupants to pack their goods and leave. The request was complied with, and by 5 P.M. the goods were packed, loaded on drays, and the Chinese were marching alongside of the loaded wagons, en route to Lake View, nine miles south of here. The Chinese merchants were given till to-morrow morning to pack their goods, being allowed three assistants. One hundred and ninety-seven Chinase reached Lake View about 7 P.M. and camped in a vacant house. It is not known whether they will take the morning train for Portland, but probably they will. Many Chinese are walking south on the railroad track. Citizens sent out to the Chinese provisions to last till morning. No trouble occurred, order prevailed and everything was quietly consummated. No harsh language was used during the proceedings. The Chinamen quietly left. When the present anti-Chinese excitement began here six weeks ago there were 700 Chinamen in Tacoma. SEATTLE, W. T., Nov. 5.—By an agreement reached to day the Chinamen promise to leave Seattle. The laborers go at once and the merchants and property-holders as soon as they can dispose of their property; but they agree to be gone within a few weeks. In return, the citizens agree to aid them in preparations for leaving and to protect life and property while they are here. Those who have not money will have their passage to San Francisco paid, and a subscription for that purpose is now being raised. A large and enthusiastic meeting was held to night and the greatest rejoicing was manifested at the happy termination of the trouble. If the Chinese carry out the agreement in good faith, there will be no trouble. A second anti-Chinese Congress has been called to meet at Olympia Nov. 24th. SEATTLE, W. T., Nov. 5th.—Governor Squire has issued a proclamation calling on all good citizens to assist in keeping the peace during the present Chinese troubles, and to secure all Chinese residents from assault. It is stated that the proclamation has been issued in anticipation of action to be taken at Seattle to-day (Friday), the date on which the Chinese of that city were notified to leave. PORTLAND, Or., Nov. 5.—About noon yesterday the Chinese quarter in the town of The Mexican Orange Trade The Two Republics thinks that Sonora is likely to prove more dangerous than Florida as a rival to California in orange-growing. Florida will have the advantage along the Atlantic seaboard, but the competition for the supply of the Western States will lie between Sonora and California. Our southern counties have been to a considerable extent successful in supplying the Western markets, and this year particularly, under the influence of reduced freights, shipments have been large. Sonora meantime, has sent a cargo of oranges to Chicago, which was delivered within five days after shipment, and met with reany sale. The experiment was so successful that the Sonora growers are making arrangements for sending regular shipments to Chicago and will also include Kansas City and St. Louis. Very likely the Sonora growers can compete with those of Southern California. Land and labor are cheap there, and the first cost on the ground will certainly be considerably lower than in California. Transportation by rail would probably be about equal, but a duty of 20 per cent ad valorem will be added to the cost of Mexican fruit. Another point in our favor is that boxes and wrappers must be imported into Mexico from the United States, paying duty, and after being used in the shipment will again pay duty as often as they re-enter Mexico. This might be overcome, perhaps, by importing the fruit in the rude native packages of withes and raw hide, should they be found suitable for carriage by rail, which remains to be proved. There is a wide difference between the intelligence and industry brought to bear on orange culture by the growers of Southern California, and the methods in vogue in Mexico. Whatever observation, experiment and science can do to increase the quantity and improve the quality of our fruit, will be done. In Sonora, under native management, it will be largely a matter of luck. If the season is favorable, and if no diseases or accidents affect the crop, all will be right; otherwise all will be wrong. To offset this the Mexicans have a climate rather better adapted to the growth of the orange, and their fruit probably averages better in flavor and juiciness than ours. The Widow's Wit A dashing Washington widow, who has received marked attention from a very peculiar and gallant physician, found herself suddenly deserted. Her Esculapina, aged 52, was completely enthralled by a beset of 18, and on Christmas morning sheeding took place with all due pomp. Worn wood for the widow! She swallowed bravely, wore an undaunted front, and was among the first to offer hurried congratulations to the happy pair. The conversation turned upon Christmas gifts, and the bride said, laughing gayly: "All my wedding presents were sent just before Christmas, so on Christmas morning I had not a single gift." "Ab! my dear, that is cruel; you had me," said the bridegroom, reproachfully. Before the pretty bride could answer, the widow" eyes grew dangerous and, swinging slowly her large fan, she murmured: "Surely, my dear Mrs. X., you should be more than sat isfied, for you know antiquities are all the rage." In the awful silence following, the widow rose, carefully arranged her draperies and bowed her adieu in stately serenity. Dr. X. and his bride never returned her call. Frederick A. Greenleaf, for the past nine years connected with the United States Assay Office at Helena, M.T., died last week from the effects of inhaling the fumes of poisonous acids with which he was preparing muriate of gold. It is rumored that there would have been a wedding at Butte Station one day last week but for a too exorbitant fee. The bride and groom had taken positions and were all ready to have the knot tied when the person officiating demanded payment in advance for his services to the amount of $20. The groom didn't think it worth that much and the wedding was postponed indefinitely. When Baby was sick, we gave her CASTORIA. When she was a Child, she cried for CASTORIA. When she became Miss, she clung to CASTORIA. When she had Children, she gave them CASTORIA. Sharon Seriously Ill. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5.—Ex-Senator William Sharon, reported so seriously ill that his life is despaired of, is suffering from neuralgia of the heart. The Senator is reported to-day to be much easier. His entire recovery is now hoped for. Ex-Senator Sharon is reported slightly better this morning. In anticipation of his approaching end, he to-day deeded over all his property to his son, Fred Sharon, and son-in-law, Frank G. Newlands, in trust for his heirs. The estate is valued at over $6,000,000, and embraces property in Nevada, California, Missouri and the District of Columbia. It is to be divided into three equal portions among his children, Clara, Fred, and Flora (Lady Hesketh), or their heirs. Three children of Clara, who is deceased, will each receive one-third of her share. The deed ignores all other relations of Senator Sharon. Sharon during a period of quietness today, is reported as having said to his relatives and attendants at the bedside: "Feeling that I am in the presence of death, I wish again to say for myself, and as due to my family and the public that I have never, at any time, proposed marriage to Miss Hill in any language or in any manner. I never signed that marriage contract. It is a forgery. I never wrote her the “dear wife” letters or any of them. Her entire charge of wifehood against me is a falsehood, a fraud and a crime against myself and my family." Inhuman Treatment. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 4.—A case of inhuman treatment was unearthed yesterday afternoon by Mr. Adams, agent of the Connecticut Humane Society, who broke into the house of Geo. Peck, Jr., the family being abent at Chesire, Conn., and released Mrs. Caroline Brooks, aged 84 years, widow, who had been confined in a room there over two years. She was locked in a little room, which was filthy in the extreme and was filled with a most dreadful stench. The woman was covered with rags and the floor strewn with bones from which she had picked what meat was given her. On a plate was her single delicacy. Culture by the growers of Southern California, and the methods in vogue in Mexico. Whatever observation, experiment and science can do to increase the quantity and improve the quality of our fruit, will be done. In Sonora, under native management, it will be largely a matter of luck. If the season is favorable, and if no diseases or accidents affect the crop, all will be right; otherwise all will be wrong. To offset this the Mexicans have a climate rather better adapted to the growth of the orange, and their fruit probably averages better in flavor and juiciness than ours. Weighing these drawbacks and advantages, those who are familiar with the orange trade think it would be about an even thing between Sonora and Southern California in a competition for the Chicago market. We can afford to go into an even light, but we cannot afford to make it against us by entering into a Reciprocity Treaty with Mexico, which will throw open the door of this competition of cheap land and labor with our fruit-growers.—S.

Slept Beside the Corpse. BUFFALO, Nov. 4.—The body of Eva Herrman, wife of Charles Herman, was found in rooms occupied by the couple in this city today. The couple were heard quarrelling on Sunday night, and the fact that Mrs. Herrman had not since been seen led to an investigation. The body was lying on a bed, the throat cut from ear to ear and hands gashed in a struggle to which the state of the room bore witness. The woman kept a market stall. The husband is a butcher out of work. He has been seen to enter the house every morning since the tragedy and, as there is but one bed, it is believed that he has been sleeping beside the corpse of his wife. He has not been arrested.
