Fditor Los Axoeles Herald:— Some body has been kind enough to send me a copy of your weekly, for which I return thanks, and if you will put my name on jour subscription list as a dead-head, i promise to send you an occasional letter. I noticed your advertisement in the News Le( trr } and I susjjected that you had been stealing my thunder in the matter of your principles. Be independent, as a matter of course, —near no collar of any party or clique,—but keep con stantly in view tiie great head-light of Republicanism: State Rights. Read. Mr. Stephens' book every now aad then to keep your memory re freshed, and your instinct correct. Fight Centralism (which is Imperial ism), and corruption. If you would make a paying paper, however, do not devote too much space to matters out side the county of Los Angeles. Ex cuse me, I do not wish to give advice, but to approve. I have seated myself to talk to old friends and acquaintances, whom I may never meet on earth again, and whom I cherish with fond tenderness. Good friends let us gossip a little. Tom Mott, (may your hearing never grow worse, or your shadow less, old fellow), what has become of him? They tell me he is married, and the father of many children. Do you mind Tom when we went to Santa Barbara to examine the coal mine which we found to be worthless, but found a pair of ponies to re-imburse us, or you rather, for the outlay of the trip? Ned Kewen Is still one of you. I hear he got on Fort Aleut raz i! .ring the war, and remained some time. Well, that is over, and trust forgotten. Sixteen or seventeen years ago we had a memorable political campaign in Los Angeles. The Brent and Downey fractions of the party were at open war. I ran for County Surveyor on the Downey (plug-ugly) ticket, J Kewen was on the Brent (rose-water) ticket for District Attorney, against Drawn. Two or throe of my friends and I, made an excursion up the Ban Gabriel river electioneering. Half way up the cafion we stopped for the night with a party of miners; who, as it happened, were Irishmen. After supper one of the persons with whom I was traveling, commenced elect ioneering for Kewen, and abusing Drown. I took up the cudgel for my side, and ended by reading one of Ned's famous Know Nothing speeches. I dont know whether I damaged him much or not, but I always had an idea that he did not appreciate my atten tions. Let by-gone be by-gones, old man, and let us cross palms without a secret grudge. h By the way, has Dad Frazee ever gotten bai'k to Los Angelas? Two years and « half ago he started for Texas, and proaiised to write if he had luck. He lavs never written. Ridley tells me that Winston is as natural aa the Bella Union itself, and as good and as true as he is natural? Where is old Joe Huber? I think some one told me that Joe had been running for County Clerk! Stop such tolly, Joseph. I bave forgotten Don Benito Wilson until I »tn> alniosjt ashamed of mjteelf. >'ou Los Angeles people little know th-» worth of yonr vlgneron who di Los Angeles Daily Herald. verts by the margin of the lake. Whftt a great' hearted wholesouled man he is, ami his politic* suit me exactly— he i.s an independent States Rights' man, who don't give a copper for par ty or party machinery. ' And where is my friend Spencer H. Wilson? 1 hope be is still alive, and, if so, you will travel many miles to find a better fellow. The irrepressible Banning! 1 know he still maintains full sway about New town—you call it Wilmington now. Do you remember those tierce wars of ours, Banning? When you under took to "crush out our patriotic oppo sition, and place the yoke of monoply" on the p-e-e-puls (thats the way Andy Johnson pronounces it.) neck! Didn't we go for you, and didn't you clean us out, you monopolist! Many times as I lay expecting a real enemy, did I think of the time when we went down and possessed ourselves of the Timm's warehouse, and stole a watch on your watchmen. But, plague you, you had us out by legal process in a few hours. Wasn't Brent hard to beat in a law suit, especially when he had you for a client, and we had old Reynolds for a lawyer? Poor Tomlinson killed him self suing the public. Has the public built hint a monument? And just here' loom up 'two of my best friends, Frank Lecouvreur and Henry Schaef fer. Since we parted I have seen many "ups and downs," have heard the long roll of musketry rattle, seen the brist ling line go forward like a whirlwind, have heard themuttcringsof those big mouthed fellows who counterfeit Jove's dread thunder, and I always bore myself in a manner which would have met the approval of the best sol diers who ever marched under Prus sia's banner. Uncle Henry gave me a blessing and a gun, and Frank, stern as Prussian discipline itself, regretted that lie coul not stand with me. And whilst my mind is with the Germans don't let me forget John Schumacher. How many children has Mrs. S. borne to that solid good husband of hers? Not less than two dozen, I dare swear. And John Goller.is still making wagons, and money too, I hope. I think John is the craziest man in America when he has about two gal lons of beer too much under his belt. Don Matteo Keller. Some one tried to make me think more ill of him be cause he had changed his politics. I tlidn't do it. He stood to me on sev eral occasions when 1 much needed a friend, and I am the person to remem ber it. If ever we meet, Don Matteo, I'll shake your hand as heartily as ever I did, and amuse you by the hour with stories. Ah! and here is Don Tomas Sanchez—Tom. Sanchez. We never could understand four words of each others language, but we knew each others hearts. 1 heard from Rid ley a couple days since. He is fuming and "managing" the Mexican railroad, has plenty of work and very good pay. I think he pines for the companion ship of Dr. Wilson Jones. I must not omit a mention of Andy Henderson. Andy, you know, was born and raised just back of Pine Bluff, in Arkansas, which he will deny, and swear he was born in or near Norfolk, Virginia; and pro nounce the Virginia as though' it were spelled with an F to convince you that he is telling the truth. Don't believe a word Andy says on that subject. He is from Arkansas, and just back of Pine Bluff. I'll back Andy to play marbles against any man in Califor nia; or, as you would express it, "the Slope." Dave McKenza, John Stonehouse, and Bill Bower have all returned to Los Angeles, and, I hear are all mar ried! There is this about these three fellows, friends and neighbors. If you are looking for true men, plucky men, and honest men I commend you to the three I have named. I have camped with those fellows from one end of the Gila to the other in those "Corky" times of '61, and know whereof I afilrm. And Charley Ayers? I went to see his father and brother in Rich mond, immediately after arriving there, twelve years ago. I have run my personal reminiscences far enough, this time. I see you are wrestling with a gas question. lam Secretary of the Memphis Gas Light Co., and am well paid therefor, and know all about gas. Don't Indulge in whole sale abuse of your gas company. Its stockholders and managers are no more likely to cheat you as gas men, than in any other capacity. Railers against the Company only display ig norance in too many instances. We have 2,500 consumers and 500 public lamps, and two stations, (upper and lower works) hence you see I am likely to be posted on the svbject. Coal costs us $5 50 per ton of 2,000 pounds, and we get $4 per month per each lamp— following tne moon—which gives us about 22 nights of lighting in the month. There is no reason wky ships and cars cannot come together at San Pe dro. What a pity your San Pedro road is hroad-gauge. Too much money thrown away in iron. Some of my friends would probably like to know what kind of a fellow 1 have grown to be. Very sedate. Am a member of the Methodist Church, and a strict business routinist, ruling my part of the big corporation I am attached to like a man-of-war. Don't care a fig for politics. Will accept but one office, and that is Congressman. Next Spring, rf. v. I am coining out to California to prospect a little. 1f at that time I can see a piece of newspa per property for sale which suits me, I may stay \vith you, otherwise I shall be under the necessity of coining back here and going to Congress. Before closing I have a little quarrel with my Southern brethren about Los Angeles. My brother-in-law, Bishop Wightman, was down there a few years since, and you paid no more at tention to him than if he had been a post! He is one of the most refined gentlemen Carolina ever produced, and one of the most learned and able preachers in America, and yet you let him come and go without special no tice! Ridley complained also that some of you gave him the cold shoul der, as any intimacy would endanger your future political chances. Well we fellows who saw the stars and bars In their zenith, and help to furl them, can forgive small things. We ocenpy a higher plane than those who are ashamed of us. George W. Gift. P. S. I don't know but my letter will be a failure, as I have left out the greater number of my friends, who will be sure to be offended. Please don't. I am In a very forgiving mood, and don't wish to offend. LOS ANGELES, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 19, 1873. MISCELLANEOUS. REPUBLIC LIFE INSURANCECO. OF CHICAGO. ILLINOIS.

OFFICE OF THE PACIFIC BRANCH. NO. :117 CALIFORNIA NTKEET, Below Sansome Street, n >2dlmlp PROSPECTUS OF THE LOS ANGELES HERALD. The first of October, Tm: Los Anok.i.es Her ald, a dally and weekly newspaper, will make Its appearance. The Dally will be a nent and tastily printed seven-column news paper, newsy rather than literary in charac ter. The Weekly will be a six-column, eight page paper, and will contain the most impor tant matter that has previously appeared in Tiik Daily Herald. It Is proposed that the Herald shall be nn unbought advocate of every interest pertain ing to Southern California and Arizona, and n zealous worker In all things that shall tend to benefit the Stnte. In a word It will be In close communion with the People. In Its col umn:*, from time to time will be found mat ters of Interest to the California Farmer, Me chanic, Merchant, Laborer, and nil classes of Producers; and it will also contain rending matter suited to the Home Circle. The Herald will bean Independent Demo cratic Jonrnal and its efforts directed to sweep ing from power and place those now misman aging the affairs oft he Nation. Forthenccom plisbmentofthisend, It will hail with satisfac tion the co-operation ofthe members of all Par ties, believing that the prosperity, perhnps safety, ofthe Nation depends upon the success of a riiovement of this character. It is " reform now or revolution hereafter." The Hkrald will auvocate State Rights nnd o iposecentralisation; it win encourage White and oppose Coolie linmigratieii. It will favor free Trade, and oppose Protective Tariff; It will advocate a Greenback Currency for Call firnia, und oppose the p-resent dwarfing and deadening policy which upholds the present ruinous rates of interest und shuts out Eastern capital. It. will advocate the People anttop pose Monopolies, no matter what guise they may assume.

The Hkrald 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 n Just return is robbery, und he who takes tills money is a thief. Believing this, the Herald will op)>ose salary steals, custom steals, land steals, railroad steals, and every kind of steals. Each day, the fullest Foreign nnd Domestic Telegrams will lie published. The aim will lie to supply, in this part of the State, the de mand heretofore tilled by the San Francisco dailies.

It will also con tain a full Review of the Local and Foreign Markets, nnd the Trades generally, honestly and enrefully compiled. SI HSCRIPTION: DAILY HERALD.

J Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind ley has been a student In my department of the University for Aye consecutive terms, vie: from September, 1870, to April 3d, 1871 During this time she studied the French, the Spanish and the German languages, obtaining always the highest murks for proficiency and attend ance, her nverage credit mark for five terms being 97 per cent. On entering the University, Miss Lindley possessed already such knowledge of the French and Spanish Idioms as to be able to speak them with ease, fluency, correctness, and a pure pronunciation.
