Galileo.
Editor Hmraldi —Your correspon
dent, when a college hoy, remembers
to have heard Dr. John Lord, more
than twenty yean ago, deliver a course
of historical lectures.
Dr. Lord, as I remeinlier hint, wasut
that time most fascinating in manner
and matter. Ht must be quite old,
now, as he seemed full grown at that
lime, and appeared to have fully
thrown off that gosling .sort of carri
age and habit which never entirely de
serts one under thirty-five.
The following extract from the
Chronicle* report of his report of Gal*
lileo, in tiie issue ot tiie Sth of Octo
ber, 187!J, seems so characteristically
Caltfornilah that it amused me, and I
venture to aak you to reprint it as an
example of how refreshingly impertin
ent the youngful journalists of this
youngest daughter of the association
have become to all we have been accus
tomed to esteem reverend and sacred:
Having exhausted the list* of Gal
ileo's invent ions and discoveries in the
realm of science, the lecturer brought
his lecture down to the period of the
philosopher's skirmish with the eccle
siastic smooth-bores of the ago.
With his discovery of the spots on the
disc of the sun, and the revolution of
the sun, in the opinion of the lecturer,
Galileo achieved the zenith of his
fame, and then began his great misfor
tunes. In consequence of his uncom
promising boldness with which he as
saulted errors und disregarded com
monly accepted authority in matters of
science, "all classes of foes marshaled
against him; the temporizing Jesuits,
the political churchmen and the whole
swarm of timid, narrow-minded, dog
matic, envious priest entered in
to an alliance to secure his
ruin," pretending that they saw in his
arguments an attack on their religious
doctrines. The enemies of Galileo
were determined that he should be
persecuted and crippled und therefore
laid their complaints before the
highest tribunal. They alarmed the
Intjuietlon and busily employed them
selves In collecting evidence.
The lecturer did not think it was
Galileo's doctrnes that offended the
age so much as the manner In winch
he assailed popular prejudices with
ridicule and sarcasm. The summon
ing of Galileo before the Cardinals at
Rome, his trial and sentence, and his
recantation of his doctrines, were
next alluded to, and his disgraceful
objuration of the scientific principles
he had elucidated were commented on
in very severe terms. The speaker
was very hard on the life-loving old
philosopher for prelferring length of
days to a first-class martyrdom for
scientific truth, although he admitted
that the persecution of Galileo was
not any worse than many others in
Catholic and Protestant countries.
He did not condemn any church be
cause Galileo was persecuted. He be
lieved that intolerance had been com
mon to human nature. Tlie Cardinal
Inquisitors were not any worse than
the Puritans when they burned
witches; they were simply more cun
ning and accomplished. Let Galileo's
persecutors puss with others. He
spoke of it only to remind us how
weak we were.
The lecturer concluded with a high
strung peroration on the good time
present and to come.
Grapes as Food.
Men cau live and work on grapes
and bread. The peasants of France,
Spain and Italy, make many a satis
fying meal in this way, and of the
wholesomeness of the diet there can
be no doubt. Medical meu constantly
recommend the use of grapes for their
patients. Scarcely any plant can
equal the vine as regards the beauty
or its leaves and fruit. As a covering
for bare walls and for affording shelter
and shade, it is a climber of the first
rank. To sit under one's own vine
has iv all ages been considered an
acme of rural happiness, an emblem of
peace, a a symbol of plenty, and a pic
ture of contentment. That pleasure,
though perhaps not in all its fullness,
may become the heritage of thousands
in these temperate climes. Neither
our latitude, longitude, nor leaden
skie9, nor erratic climate forbid the
growth of the grapevine throughout
the larger portion of the kingdom. In
many districts its fruit will ripen more
or less perfectly. In almost all it
would ripen sufficiently to be useful
for eating or wine making. Even
green grapes are useful for conversion
into vinegar, for making tarts, wine,
etc. Ripe grapes are universally es
teemed. No one tires of them. If any
declined to eat their own grapes, or
grew more thau were needed for home
consumption, there is a ready market
in most neighborhoods for grapes at
from four-pence to a shilling a pound,
according to quality. Thus cottages
might make or save the rent many
limes over. I know muny cottage
gardens in which the vine or vines are
not only their chief ornaments, but
the main source of prollt. These
might be multiplied up and down the
country to inlinity. As a means of in
creasing their number, I would sug
gest that prizes be offered by all cot
tage-garden societies for the best train
ed and most fruitful grapevines on cot
tages. 1 have known this done to such
excellent effect that the vines became
models of both; and such a spirit of
emulation was stirred up that one la
borer had paid another two days of
his wages to do up his vine for him.
There need be no rear of an excessive
sqpply; neither are ripe grapes so per
isnable as fruits. Cut with a piece of
wood attached, and placed in bottles
of water, or even suspended in a dry
room, the ripe fruit will keep good for
months, uud cv en improve by keeping.

Los Angeles Daily Herald.
Madame Anna Bishop.
One of the prettiest notices ever
written of a singer is from the Even
ing Post iv San Francisco. That live
ly little paper says:
"England," said Mendelssohn, sen
tentiously, "has given three great
singers to Italy —Clara Novello, Cathe
rine Hayes and Anna Bishop."
They were a grand trio—women
with the stanch, lasting English physi
que, plus the glorious Italian training,
a combination that makes extraordi
nary singers. These three upheld their
supremacy when there was no lack
of prima* donnas. Madame Anna
Bishop remains tbe last of that great
school of vocalists which began with
Storace nearly a hundred years ago.
Oh, the memories that come with the
neat figure as it trips on to the stage!
The recollections of triumphs won
when Grisi and Viardot, Alboni and
Cruvelli, Lind and Persiani, were
acknowledged queens of song! Of
tales of adventure and travel, of peril
by flood and field, of wreck, robbery
and danger! Of all these and more,
survived and conquered until admira
tion of pluck and endurance grows un
til it would almost forgive vocal defi
ciencies did they exist.
MADAME ANNA BISHOP'S SINGING
Is a thing to be watched and studied.
Tha secret of her success is in her
method. No voice, however naturally
beautiful, can last if it be badly train
ed or badly managed, and if any am
bitious young lady wishes to preserve
her voice for a whole lifetime, she
must do as Madame Bishop does—that
is, open her mouth and let the sound
come clear from the larynx, without
affectation or hindrance.
AFTER TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF
TRAVEL
And good fortune, she elects to begin
her farewell trip in San Francisco.
Her me/.za-voce singing is still superb;
her upper notes clear, sweet and re
sonant, her scales and shakes brilliant
and facile, and her figure, gestures,
attitudes and expression, exactly, pre
cisely and entirely like what they
were when lirst she made her bow in
America. If this be really what we
hope it is not—her farewell trip—we
can only counsel every one who wishes
to know what good singing is, to go
and near her.
Los Angeles people can hear her on
Friday evening.
Locomotives for Wooden Rail
roads. —George E. Fifield, of South
Newmarket, N. H., has been build
ing, for a few years past, a novel class
of locomotives for the wooden-track
railways in the lumber regions of
Georgia. They are only six tons in
weight, and have very large cylinders
for so light machines. The capacity
for carrying water and fuel is very
great, the whole forming a very
unique and serviceable machine, oue
of them being able to do the work of
thirty mules easily. The rapid denu
dation of the timber lands along the
rivers and lines of railroads all through
the South is driving the lumbermen
deeper into the forests to supply tlie
demand for a material almost indis
pensable for heavy bridges, cars and
floors throughout the country. No
yellow-pine tree ever grows where one
is cut, a soft, sappy, worthless scrub
pine of another kind taking its place.

PROSPECTUS
OF- —
THE LOS AN6ELES HERALD.
The flrst of October, Tiik Los AxqfxkhH-R
-ald, a dally und weekly newspaper, will
make Its immium, Tbo Dally will be a
neat and tastily printed seven-column news
paper, new.sy rattier than Uterary in charac
ter. The Weekly will he a six-column, eight
page paper, and will contain tiie most Impor
tant mutter that has previously appeared in
the Daily Herald.
It Is proposed that the HCTAt.P whall be un
unbought udvocate of every Interest pertain
ing to Southern California und Arizona, und
a zealous worker in all things that shall tend
to benefit the State, lv v word it will be lv
close communion with the People. In Its col
umns, from time to time will he found mat
ters of Interest to the California Farmer, Me
chanic, Merchant, laborer, and all classes of
Producers; and it will ulso contain reading
matter suited to the Home Circle.
Tlie Herald will be un Independent Demo
cratic journal and Its effort* directed to sweep
ing from power aud place those now misman
aging the a Ita Irs ofthe Nation. Eortheurconi
pllshmentofthisend, it will hall with satisfac
tion the co-operation ofthe members of all Par.
ties, believing that the prosperity, perhaps
safety, ofthe Nation depends upon the success
of a movement of this character. It is " reform
now or revolution hereafter."
The llEitAi.n will auvooate State Rights and
oppose Centralization; It will encourage White
and oppose Coolie Immlgratien, it will favor
Free Trade, and oppose Protective Tariff; it
will advocate a Greenback Currency tor Call
torn til, and oppose the present dwarfing and
deadening policy which upholds the preseut
ruinous rates of interest ami shuts out Eastern
capital. It will advoculethe People and np
posc Monopolies, no mutter wiiat guise they
may assume.
While the Herald will treat Slavery as a
dead issue, It will earnestly advocate the
right of every State, be it Northern or South
ern—Massachusetts or South Carolina —to gov
ern itself in accordance with the wishes of its
people, and the dictates of the Federal Con
stitution, without national Interference.
The Herald will opppse thieving and pecu
lation. No man rightly owns a dollar until
he earns it. Every dollar which is taken
from the public treasury or private purse
without a just return Is robbery, and he who
takes this money is a thief. Relieving this,
the ii iv \ i.v will oppose salary steals, custom
steals, land steals, railroad steals, und every
kind of steals.
Each day, the fullest Foreign and Domestic
Telegrams will be published. Tlie vim will
be to supply, In this part of the State, the de
mand heretofore tilled by the San Francisco
dallies. No trouble or expense will be spared
to make the Herald, in this respect, equal to
any newspaper on the Coast. It will also con
tain a full Review of the Local and Foreign
Markets, and the Trades generally, honestly
and carefully compiled.
