[Written for the Los Angeles Herald.] LOS ANGELES. BY RKTTtK I.AOKANOH. A breeze from the southward comes bringing The fragrance of far-away llower-; 1 fancy il throhhing and ringing With notes of the mocking-bird singing sweet praises for sunshiny hours. And through (he soil mist of my dreaming The City Of Angels appeals, The gold of her orange grove* gleaming, |lng Through clouds of dark, glossy leaves, beam- Like smites through a shallow ol tears. 1 see the broad vineyards, extending Their laden ai ills, low to I he ground, The willow tree swaying and bending, The blight river Hashing, and blending its voice with! heir taurnturln g sound. A ii I myriad hlossom < aie lilting Bright eyes lo the sun that they love; Th >lr soft petals Boating and drilling , To catch the bright rays, that -ire sifliiu; Through branches thai rustic i.hove. Is it real, the land of my dreaming, Where angels of beauty still dwell, The harsh work of mortals r< deeming, Or In the fair vision hut sci mlng? i ih, hasten dear H RRALD, to tell. M nta P.arhara,'til Oct., 1ST:!. Personal Journalism. The following article appeared two weeks ago in the columns of the San Franclmo New* f*etter. It so entirely accords with the Views of the editors of the Hkkai.d, and so fully repre sents the feeling of most good citizens that it is here reproduced, The lan guage in which it is couched is as ele gant as forcible, and a model of com* position! A bombastic generation chants the march of improvement, ami its chief refrain is, freedom of the press. Ana rule, the Newt Letter inclines rather to gay than grave, to lively than se vere. Vet there are times when se rious evils move us to wrath, and our seal of disapproval is set just now up on that ulcer in the Hide of progress— liersonal journalism. We do not real ize how insidious ami certain have been the works of this rampant intru der, until we learn from a glance at circulation lists, that those papers are considered jejune and unreadable which are too respectable to bristle with sensational poiltta gleaned from tlm privacy . ' family circles anil inner lives. Time was when a man's home was his castle; but now, those who would he igiiomiiiously ejected from the drawing room, penetrate to the closet, where the family skeleton, open wide the doom that nil the world may see, anil rattle the lioiu's that all the world may hear. Time was, when such stories appear ing, names were disguised hy accomo dating blanks, or at most in unoffend ing initials. Now they are giving nn* eoinproniisiiigly complete. The man of acute feeling who shrinks sensitive ly into privacy, awakes to titul his name in huge capitals, his doings in long paragraphs, and himself the them* of every breakfast table. Youthful indiscretions are dug from Under the kindly drifts of accummula ted years, polished by practiced hands, and held to the searching light of pub licity that friends and family may he dazed with their unwelcome glitter. Stories that had best he forgotten, Of at least unrecorded, are given with en largements and additions for a greedy public to swallow, knowing well that every detail had been gathered in the sloughs of disgraceful weakness. A black sheep in an honorable family is their favorite prey. The prayers of a father, the tears of a mother, tho grief of shame-bowed sisters, they disregard. A flashy heading, a sensational column, an extra sale or two must he considered before all the grief und shame, and the higher the social alti tude and the more resectable the sur roundings, the greater their stock in trade, Many a girl whose feet might have .heen timely stayed in the down ward path, has been moved to reck lessness and defiance through the rash publicity of personaljokinialisin. Many a youngman who would have repented ' aiid expiated a first fault, has been moved to further sinning in the same way. It is said that we live in a fust age, When eiU'i'gie? awl eiithusiams die early, and that' stimulants alone will revivify them. Let the sated ap petites of tlie reading public he regaled with tales of dangers hy Hood ami lield, or murders most fold, of wars and fires, and disasters hy sea and shore. Let the men who have wit tingly placed themselves before the public, and their names at the point of journalist's jkmi, be written about and joked about, criticised and laughed over, but let thesi nsirtionirl marauders be displaced from the family hearth stone, upon which they have taken their uninvited stand. Personal jotir • "milium should he frowned upon, dis couraged, unpatronized. It lv every man's duty; for no man knows when it may attack himself or family. Like a Ikul, it is unexpected in its attack and irritating beyond endurance; like an ulcer, its discharge is conti nous and vile; like a leech, it fastens itself, and may not he displaced until it is gorged; and, like a leech, too, it can vomit forth its horrible meal at will, and return with frenh unction to batten upon its familiar food. • j * Here is mi order lately received by n music teacher: "Pleaae tend dm the iuuslq to'Htrike the harp In praise of (Jod, and paddle your own canoe.'

[Rpceinl Porrwipotidenee <>r the Herald.] iteni Batata In iiipTuh ii—tiii' lhhjits mul Oorloi'*—Polities noil Oeoernl Neaa. Santa BARBARA, Oct. 4. Your sprightly paper (No, 1). came to hand this morning. You have em barked in a nohle enterprise, worthy of a hearty support from all of South ern California. Our town (Santa llarhaia) is pushing forward rapidly in the construction of dwellings, caused hy the low price of lumber and the anticipated demand of visitors or winter sojourners. Real property is held at high figures, and there is considerable speculation in It. The medical profession is well repre sented, probably to assist the climate in Ct|rltig the invalids that are expect ed to flock to this greal sanitarium. The legal profession is also well rep resented, and more are coming. The Bar is just now exercised over the question as to whether they will have a Judge to hold court the comingttTtn. Judge de la rjuerra is an invalid, and has heen for the past year. The im pression seems to prevail that he will never he able to again assume the du ties of the office, Doubtless the Judge, who is the soul of Castilian honor,and the head and highest type of his race, will resign his position as soon as he is advised by his medical attendants that it will he impossible for him ever to perform the functions of the office. In politics, the People*. Independent party is ahead. The local central com mittee of the People's Party has adopt ed the State organisation, and many Democrats and Republicans among the other local party -the Citizens' Parly declare in favor of MeKlnstry. In conclusion, your correspondent would remark thai there ought to he no conflict between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara relative to advantages, growth and prosperity. It would not he Southern California if we had not both of these places, and Sau Diego besides. TRAVKLLKR. Exchange Saucepan. Nan Diego Wurhi.

I Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Und ley has been a student In my department of the University for five consecutive terms, viz: from September, IH7O, to April .Id, 1872. During this time she studied the French, the Spanish and Hie Ocrman languages, obtaining always the highest marks for proficiency and attend ance, her average credit mark for five terms being 07 percent. On entering the University, Miss I,lnd lev possessed already such knowledge of the French ami Spanish idioms as to be able to s|>eak them with ease, fluency, correctness, and a pure pronunciation. She may now ls» considered thoroughly fa miliar with the theory and philosophy, as well as with the application ol these two tongues; nud she may safely be recommended as a can didate of great promise, for teaching the French and Spanish languages.
