The following correspondence is
taken from the Monitor. It is from
tne pen of otir fellow townsman, A. E.
Redewell:
At last, after a fatiguing and tedious
iourney of fifteen hours, we reached
jOS Angeles—or, as the name implies,
The Angels; hut neither history nor
the county archives state whether
they are fallen angels or otherwise.
We can conjecture, however, that con
sidering the geographical position of
the county, in the south of California, it
must he the "angels of the lower re
gions.'? With an immense treeless
valley of a million acres of fine agri
cultural lands: with a climate tem
perate and salubrious—never subject
to cold, and open at all times to the
pleasant breezes from the sea; wl'hout
malaria or anything to produce dis
ease, it would be difficult to find a
more desirable place for its intelligent
and industrious people, who are ac
tively engaged in building railroads,
cultivating land on all sides, building
large storehouses and palatial resi
dences, and turning to advantage all
the gifts that Providence has bestowed
on this angel land.
Frnir.*—Wliie-Mnkiiijr—Aroiua.
The walnut, aimond, orange and
grape culture and wine and brandy
making constitute the principal occu
pations of the people. Wheat, barley
and corn are raised to a great extent,
but the branoh.of Industry which is
carried on the greatest scale is that of
wine-making. There is one fact about
Los Angeles wine that entitles it to
the preference or wine drinkers—it is
pure grape. It may lack age and
urorqa, and taste a little "earthy" but
adulteration withalcohol and logwood
are not required. The grape grows too
freely, bears too abundantly to neces
sitate the drugging of its juice. A
gentleman who has v large vineyard in
formed me that he sold his last year's
crop, amounting to 40,000 gallons,
to a San Francisco firm at twenty-five
cents per gallon, and that he made
twenty per cent, profit at that low fig
ure. Everything connected with wine
making is interesting to behold, ex
cept the pressing and crushing of the
grapes to extract the juice. I witness
ed one of these "crushings," and must
confess that my love for good wine re
ceived a check. When all the grapes
were ready in large wine tanks some
twenty Mexicans and Indians were or
dered to take oil" their shoes and souks
—that is, those wore this
was trone without the precaution of
having their feet washed, though I
saw a few pair of monstrous sized
"grape crushers" that would have
been greatly improved by washing and
scrubbing. Upon inquiry about this
disgusting operation, a bystander an
swered naively that without this pro
cess "tho wine would lose much ot its
aroma." 1 have now learned the
secret of Imparting "aroma" to wine,
and shall certain' v order in future of my
rjstauranteur win > without aroma.
Popu a non— Cli i nese.
The population of Los Angeles coun*
ty is about iiO.ooo. Los Angeles city
alone numbering half of that. Two
thirds a.re of American and foreign ex
tractt«n> and the balance native Call
fornfahs and Chinese. Having writ
ten at length on the life and customs
of the native Cttllfornians in my prev
ious letter, I will now in conclusion
Bay a few words on the Chinese of Los
Angeles. For years bitter prejudices
have prevailed here, as In other parts
of the State, against tho Chinese.
Just a year and a half ago the bitter
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
ness was so great that a single row,
which emanated between an Ameri
can and a Chinaman at a laundry,
was the signal for a grand massacre,
in which sixteen Chinese lost their
lives. They were hun<' or shot down
like dogs by the mob. With a resig
nation that'might well become men
toiling for their souls, these people,
notwithstanding that sail occurrence,
plod along, year after year, heedless
Of all passing events except earning
of seventy-live cents and a bowl of
rice per day. Internal or external af
fairs of State, civil or mob law,
trouble not the mind of John China
man. His home is far away. In the
distant future he sees lots of coin, a
sea, and beyond lie sees his pig-tailed
and almond-eyed bride, lloating gar
dens, fat ducks and pigs, hot tea, and a
happy refuge in his celestial land.
The Chinese have added to their jar
gon—while speaking English—an ad
ditional mixture of a little Spanish.
Tiie following eloquent appeal from
one of them to a customer greeted my
ear: "Muchacho, mo wushee yull
clothes; dos reales one piecee, dollar
hap six piecee, one dozenull the same;
poco mas o menos—you sabe?
A Grand Entekprlse.— The enter
prise of Miller & Lux, large land own
ers in the southern part of this county,
in constructing a canal for tho drain
age or Soap Lake, which is situated
upon their premises, is one of the
grandest ever inaugurated in our val
ley. The lake is situated in the heart
of a large tract of fertile land, which
at present is almost valueless because
of its inundation tho greater portion
ofthe year. The only time nt which
the land can be used for any purpose
whatever, is late in the season when
the water has subsided. The canal
which is being constructed, is twelve
feet wide at the bottom and ap
proaches a width of twenty-five leet at
the top, and is three miles and a half
in length. It leads to the Pajaro river,
and will drain several thousand acres
of land, which comprises some of the
best land in the country. Messrs. Lux
& Miller have employed in this work
about forty-five teams and about fifty
two men. The works is under the su
pervision of T. B. Clark, Esq., foreman
and overseer of the great Miller & Lux
ranch.—[San Jose Mercury.
Got off Jury Duty.—Recently a
juror approached the clerk of the Su
preme Judical Court at Nashua, N. H.,
and stated that it would be impossible
for him to serve.
"Why not?" inquired the clerk.
"Because I'm deaf," responded the
juror.
The clerk had reason for incredulity,
and so informed the deaf man, in a
whisper, that he would report his case
to the judge. Turning to his honor, he
said:
"Mr. Batlman, of Manchester, de
sires to be excused."
"What are his reasons?" asked his
honor, without raising his eyes from
the paper lie was reading.
"He says he is denf," replied the
clerk.
"He is excused," said the judge
quickly. "If he is deaf, we don't
want him; if he is a liar we don't
want him."
Mr. Budman is at home now.
The pancake season has got around
to Richmond, Indiana. A hired girl
employed in a family there, whi c
baking cakes the other morning,
stepped backward to a chair which
reposed the batter, and deliberately
sat down in the pan. As she subse
quently refused to sit down on the
stove, the breakfast was finished with
bread.
The Navy.—The San Francisco Post
has not a very high opinion of the
American navy. It remarks:
This $30,000,000 a year which we
have been spending has gone to keep
p horde of naval officers loafing around
the hotels, and has been frittered away
in political expenses, and by incom
petent builders.

AS THE CHARMING CHARAO
ter Of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara, becomes known to the world,
it is not surprising that a Widespread and
growing interest In this region should be
awakened. It is the constant aim ofthe Press
to furnish perfectly reliable information on al
points of interest to tourists, invalids and
nome-seekers, which we are now able to do
with greatly Increased facilities.
While the PRESS seeks to promote the
prosperity of nil Southern California by all le
gitimate und honorable methods, it is more
directly Interested in tho growth and coming
greatness oi Santa Barbara. The unaqualeq
loveliness of the climate, Its almost Incredible
healt lifuluess, the beauty oi the scenery, the
wondrous variety and fertility of the soil, the
almost unlimited range of products which
tlourish there without irrigation, will be
known from time to time by facts which can
not be controverted, lv the columns of the
PRESS. Any intelligent person can become

TESTIMONIALS:
University of California, )
Department ok Languages. >
Oakland, July 11.1872. J
Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Und-
Ib.v iias been n student in my department of
the University for five consecutive terms, vis:
from September, 1870, to April 3d, 1872. During
this time she studied the PTencli. the Spanish
and the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency and attend
ance, nor average credit mark lor five terms
being 97 per cent.
On entering the University, Miss Lindley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French nnd Spanish Idioms as to be able to
speak them with ease, fluency, correctness,
and a pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly fa
miliar with the theory nnd philosophy, as well
as with the application of these two tongues;
and she may safely be recommended as a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French and Spanish languages.

snperiortty are: Lightness of draft, It being a
centre draft; a castor wheel In the rear, which
makes It turn in a space sufficient to accom

can, by sliding, bo adjusted to the driver's
weight, and removes all pressure from the
