$0$ gutgeks §,<tatd. COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER. FRIDAY MARCH 27, 1874. CITY AND SUBURBS. The Panamint Road Committee have met with good success so far. A shipment of twenty cases of honey was made yesterday by the house of Newinark & Co. The colored population Rive an an niversary ball at Steams' Hall next Tuesday evening. J. 8. Cox, special agent of the P. M. 8. S. Co., returned to San Francisco yesterday by the Orizaba. The ladles hold a meeting at Good Templar Hall this afternoon at 2 o'clock in the cause of temperance. Turtles appear to be in order just now. The Clarendon advertises to feed its guests upon green turtle soup to-day. Edward Hoff & Co. are going to open a new dry jroods and clothing store in Hamilton's building, second door from the Herald office. Our plaza is to lose its fine neglig6 and romantic appearance. The City Fathers have decided to put the chain gang to work there and renovate the place. Good idea. A-meeting of the Fire Company is called for to-night at half past seven, to discuss questions of Importance to every member. It is therefore desira ble that there be a full attendance. There were three drunks in town last night that we know of. One slept peacefully in the gutter on Main street, another reclined in luxurious ease against a hitching post, and the third wended his serpentine way to the calaboose with a star of the even ing. The machinery and boilers of the large thirty-horse power engine to be used by Mr. Beaudry in his projected water works have arrived at the depot. The works will be erected at the junc tion of Main and Alameda streets, and will supply a reservoir of a million gallons capacity at an elevation of two hundred and forty feet above the level of Main street. This is designed to furnish water for domestic and irrigat ing purposes on some three hundred lots lying upon the foot hills, and will thus place in market a large number of most desirable building sites. Thus we chronicle another long stride to wards the future greatness of Los An geles. Meeting of the Common Council. The Council met pursuant to ad journment yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Present, Messrs. "Workman, Beaudry, Dockweiler, Valdiz, Huber, Gerkens and Mascarel. Mr. Work man was called to tbe Chair as Presi dent pro tern. The minutes of last meeting were read and approved. A communication was then present ed from the City Attorney, accompa nied by maps and documents, relating to the survey of city lands made by Henry Hancock in September, 1858. On metion, the communication was received. A communication from the Zanjero was then read, stating that he had ap grinted Felis Qallardo as his deputy, a motion, the communication was received and appointment confirmed; vote being taken by ayes and noes. A report was then received from the City Surveyor relative to the examin ation of canal and reservoir ditch or dered by the Council, recommending that the cleaning of ditch be deferred until the grass and weeds are fully grown, when one cleaning will answer the whole purpose. Report accepted. Report of the City Surveyor was presented, stating that 792 feet of sew erage had been completed, and recom mending that the work be contined. Mr. Beaudry moved that the Commit tee nn sewers be instructed to ascer tain the number of feet necessary to be constructed and advertise for bids on same. Motion carried. Report of committee on license of traveling salesmen was then received. The committee reccomended that a tax of fifteen dollars per month be im posed on all parties selling goods in this manner, by sample or otherwise. On motion the report was received and adopted. It was moved by Mr. Beaudry that the City Attorney act in conjunction with the Finance Com mittee in drafting an ordinance meeting requirements. Motion car ried. A communication from Mrs. Mary Cary was read requesting that correc tion be made in deed from the city, an error having been made in spelling the name. Moved and seconded that the request be granted. Motion car ried. A minority report from the Com mittee on Police was read, recom ending that the matter of appoint ing special policemen be left entirely to the Mayor and merchants, as it is not deemed advisable for the city to bear any portion of the expense. This report was signed only by Mr. Dockweiler, one of the other members of the committee being sick and tbe other absent from the meeting. On motion, the report was received and adopted. Petition of George Lehman was pre sented, praying for removal of hay scales from the comer of Fifth and Fort streets, and placing at the corner of Sixth and Spring. Petition referred to the Board of Public Works. The following bills were then pre sented: Sheriff; for services, $135 85; Knowles & Co., for painting, $10; Jno. G. Scott, care of town clock, $10; R. Bills, hauling engine to fire, $7; Good man & Co.,ihorse-shoeing, $7 50; Page A Gravel, blacksmith work, $22 75; Perry, Woodworth & Co., for lumber, $24 53; Geo. P. McLaiu, for keeping • city horses, $10; Jehu Mayer, for building 830 feet of sewer, $1!*; M. Teed, for post and signs, $9 25; Harper 4 Dalton, for implements, $19 25; Star printing office, for printing and adver tising, $40. The bills were upon motion referred to the Finance Committee. Mr. Dockweiler moved that the pre vious action taken relating to purchase of horses for fire engine De reconsidered, after which some debate followed and the question being put to the house the vote was a tie. The motion was carried, however, by the deciding vote of the President. Mr. Beaudry moved that the purchase of horses be dispensed with entirely for the pres ent, the amount of money in the treasury not being sufficient to justify the expenditure. Here again the vote stood a'tie, and was decided affirm atively by tbe President voting aye. Mr. Huber stated that there is not sufficient work in the office of the City Surveyor to require the aid of an assistant anil suggested that the man now filling that position be discharged. Here followed quite a spirited debate, and many explanativea concerning the - • work done in the office of the City Surveyor. Mr. Dockweiler stated that the City Surveyor with his assistant is now en gaged*! n the preparation of a book of plats of the city for use in making assessments of property; that this book of plats will bo invaluable to the city, and it is highly Important that the work should be continued and for this purpose the Surveyor's assistant retained. Others doubted the value of the book of plats, and some thought that they would be claimed by the Surveyor as his own private property at the expiration of his term of office. The debate was finally ended by Mr. Beaudry moving, as an amendment to the proposition that the City Survey or be requested to produce his book of plats before the Council, giving ex planations and answering all ques tions propounded to him by the Board. Mr. Beaudry's amendment was put to the house and carried; vote being taken by ayes and noes. The motion of Mr. Huber was then dismissed without further action. The President called the attention of the Council to a small bridge needed on the thoroughfare leading to Los Nietos. Referred to Board of Public Works. Mr. Beaudry stated that some time since several delinquent bills were placed in the hands of the City Attor ney for collection He called for a statement in regard to the matter. The City Attorney, who was pres ent, stated to the Council that the business had been properly attended to and some of the amounts collected and turned into the treasury. Moved by Mr. Gerkens that the captain of the chain-gang proceed with his force to renovate the plaza and put it in respectable condition prior to the coming celebration by our Spanish citizens. Motion carried. An additional bill of Perry, Wood ward & Co. for lumber amounting to fB2 25 was presented and referred with the others. The Council then adjourned. The Goodall, Nelson & Perkins Line. We have received a letter from Messrs. Goodall, Nelson & Perkins, in which they state that it has been re ported in various quarters that their line was to be withdrawn. In correc tion of this false report they write as follows under date of of March 23d: San Francisco, March 23d. Editor Los Anokles Herald: * * * In order to disabuse the public of any false impression cre ated by such misrepresentation, we hereby beg leave to state that instead of the withdrawal of the steamers now running, two others —as soon as they receive their new compound engines and boilers, now under construction — will reinforce the line. These steam ers are not to be excelled for comfort, safety, speed and freight capacity by any steamers that have ever appeared on this coast. And further, we pro pose to continue the management of this—a California steamship company —and do not intend to be overawed or intimidated by the bombastic threats or the misrepresentations of the drum mers of any rival company. We respectfully solicit the support of the shippers and people ot the Southern Coast, anil we assure the public generally that it will be our constant endeavor to give satisfaction to all who may feel disposed to favor us with their patronage. Yours truly, Goodall, Nelson & Perkins. Stephen Massett's Night. On Saturday at the Merced Theater, "Jeems Pipes" speaks and sings his piece. Reserved seats can be had at Brodrick'a store without additional charge. There is great variety in the programme, and we hope he will re~ ceive a cordial welcome. The Daily Gazette says: "It was a most decided success in every respect, and the lec ture proved to be all that the press of other cities had claimed for it." The Baltimore Clipper remarks: "His 'Driftings* have been gathered into a beautiful collection of literary gems, which whendellvered by him sparkled with a brilliancy seldom met with. It is to be hoped that Mr. Massett will shortly favor our citizens with another of his agreeable entertainments." Gallatin Correspondence. Gallatin, March 25th. Editor Herald: Thinking that some of tbe many readers of your val uable paper would like a line from this land of maize asd pumpkins, I will intrude a short note into your columns. Everybody 1b plowing, planting vines, trees, shrubbery, corn and garden veg etables. All are expecting a rich har vest this year, after the copious rains which we have had during the past Winter. From present indications there will be a greater breadth of land in cultivation this year than ever be fore in this valley; in fact all kinds of business has a much more healthy ap pearance. People are going to work in earnest, and will do more this season to build up and make this valley home-like than ever before. We no tice that the crowds that used to assem ble daily about the saloons and street corners are growing beautifully less; they are now behind the plow or har row. There is a bright future for Gal latin yet, when the land-owners realize the fact that all the land in the valley is not included in the Gallatin town plot and is not worth any more to build on than for farming purposes. Our merchants are doing- a great deal of business and our mechanics are kept busy all the time. The only place that is destitute of business is the justice's office, which we must ad mit is not a good sign of prosperity, though it may be a sign of peace and good will. No politics talked on the streets here, as of other days. Once in a while a passing curse at Asa Ellis tor going to Sacramento city after county bonds to keep the San Gabriel river In its channel. The present Leg islature has declared that all of the waters of this State are the property of the State; if so, the State should be forced to take care of its property, and not allow it to be running loose over the country to the damage of our peo ple. Observer. Value of River Navigation. The Louisville Courier-Journal is advocating in the interest of cheap transportation an appropriation by the United States Government for the im provement of the navigation of the Ohio river. It makes the somewhat astounding statement that the total commerce of the Ohio river for the years 1872 and 1873 is valued at $716, --000,000, while the total foreign imports of the country for the same years was but $063,000,000. It says 75,000,000 bushels of coal are annually received at the single port of Cincinnati by river transports. And yet the river is cfosed by ice' four months in the year. Dr. Edward Warren, surgeon-in ehief to the Khedive of Egypt, has been made a Bey on account of his saving the life of the Minister of War by a difficult operation. Pioche Mines. We are indebted to the Pioche Record for the subjoined mining intel ligence: The prospects of the late strike in the Portland mine being per manent, are becoming more and more cheering, and if things continue as they are now it will soon be producing a large amount of bullion. The opera tions in the Portland are going on quietly and steadily, making prepara tions to open out the rich lead of which it is the fortunate possessor. On the 200-foot level drifting is going on easterly, and on the ledge, which looks excellent. On the 300-foot level they are drifting for the ledge and expect to strike it in a few days. Operations In the American Flag mine are being pushed forward with much activity. In the west le v el, ninety feet from the main shaft, good ore is shown in the bottom of the dirt. The stope in the east drift is looking c tremely well, the ore being three feet in width. The winze below the left level is still in good ore. Some beautiful speci mens of native leaf silver are being found which attract much attention. Some of the ore taken out is also exceed ingly rich. The mine generally is looking well. The Chief of the Hill Company ship to-day seven bars of bullion of the value of $8,311 90, the product of ninety-four tons of ore worked at the Amador mill, being seventy-four per cent of the pulp assay. This speaks well for the mill as well as the mine. In the mine operations are being carried on actively. A force of twenty-two men are employed drifting, and unless appearances fail are in the close vicinity of a consider ble body of good ore. Los Nietos Correspondence. Los Nietos, March 24th. Editor Herald: Since our last, 12th inst., the shipments from Los Nietos depot are as follows: 5,547 sacks corn, 5 sacks castor beans, 2 bales wool and 34 cases eggs to San Francisco. On hand at the depot: 100 sacks barley and 70 sacks corn. Hence you see our little village is doing some business, notwithstanding the irregularity of trains. It is said there are at least 8,000 sacks of corn on the Pico ranch, held for better prices. The Odd Fellows' Building Associa tion are making the necessary ar; rangements for their hall. The neces sary amount oi money is subscribed, anu we expect to see work commenced on it soon. The building will be of brick, two stories high, 62x32 feet. Somebody, fwe don't remember the name) had a snow here a few nights since and took chickens for tickets. We understand that not less than nine went in on three chickens, and the showman had no chickens either the next morning—something wrong. We note some improvements. Roads getting good. Farming going right ahead. Herald, with news from the world, comes once a day. Nix. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Mutual Aid Association, Jdois Angeles, Cal. Incorporated October 30, 1873.

The object of the Association Is to secure pe cuniary aid of $2,000 to the families or depend ants of deceased members. This we accom plish in the most perfect and substantial man ner, as has been substantiated within the last few years by kindred societies; and that, too, with an expense so light that it has proved not to be a burden upon its members, which not only increases its popularity, but brings it within reach of those most needing its protec tion and aid. Any person, male or female, may become a member of this association It in good health und over eighteen und under fifty years of age. On proof of the death of a member of the Association, his family or the person he has appointed, receives immediately from the As sociation $2,000, or one dollar for each mem ber in good standing, if the membership Is not full. All surplus shall be loaned on good and suf ficient security ton real estate) to form a "per manent reserve fund," the Interest on which annually reverts to members in the form of an abatement of assessments. In case of death, we send a notice to each member. We shall have agents in each town to receive the assessments and save members the trouble of sending direct to the Secretary. The Association, as well as its funds, is under the control of a Board of eleven Directors, who are elected annually by the members of the Association ; it is also incorporated un der tho Civil Code of the Stute, which code does not allow any funds to be used for pur poses other than set forth in the By-Laws, while the Secretary and Treasurer ure re quired to give heavy bonds for the faithful performance of their duties. The Officers and Directors of the Association receive no compensation whatever for their services, except the Secretary, who Is simply paid for keeping the books of the Association, and the Treasurer. All members will be allowed the same Inter est on money standing to their credit that the funds of the Association draw, and they can deposit such amounts as they may desire on advance payment* or as an endowment fund for future years without risk or forfeiture, whether one or more deposit. The Association is designed to save money, not to spend it. None will feel poorer for be longing to it, while many will bless the day that their father, mother, husband, or brother joined It. A payment by one of the following methods is necessary in order to secure a membership: LIFE PAYMENT. From 18 to 25 years of age $15 00 " 25 to 30 " " 20 00 " 30t035 " " 25 00 " 35 to 40 " " 30 00 " 40 to 45 *' " 40 00 " 45t060 " " 50 00 'ANNUAL PAYMENTS. From 18 to 25 ycarß of age, $3 00 " 23 to 30 " " 400 " SO to 35 " " 600 " 35 to 40 " " 1, 00 " 40 to 45 " " 800 " 45 to 40 " " 10 00 A Life Payment secures a life membership, and relieves a person from any further pay ments except the one dollar assessment on the death of any member. Ths annual divi dend of Life Members will be applied to can cel the one dollar assessments. Annual payments continue through life. The annual dividend to those making the an nual payments will be applied first to cancel the annual payments and afterwards to cun cel'the one dollar assessments. Persons are allowed to choose between ordi nary membership and Life Membership. Life Members make no annual payments. Other members at the tlmo of Joining make one annual payment. Persons taking a life membership can pay one-fourth of tbe required amount at the time of making application and the balance in ninety days at one per cent, per month inter est. The Interest on the Reserve Fnnd is distri buted annually among the members as a divi dend, according to the length of time each parson has been a member—members of five years' standing receiving five times as much us members of one year's standing. Do not confound us with life insurance. We are a " Protective Association." We do busi ness in a different way—ln part for the same purpose, but for one-fifth the expense to mem bers, who receive all ths benefit. Further particulars of tho Association can be obtained from the Secretary in person or by letter, or of any Local Agent. L. M. HOLT, Setretorv. Liberty Hill. A. J. Doollttle, of Liberty Hill, fur nishes the Nevada Jramcript with the appended information: Snow is five feet deep, and every thing is frozen up, so that mining can not be carried on profitably, on account of not being able to save the gold and quicksilver. It is not generally known that undercurrents pay about as much again in Winter as in Summer, because of the escape of the fine gold and quicksilver, in consequence of the cold. The company which Mr. Doolittle rep resents is the only one now running at that place. The ground adjoining theirs is owned by the Little York Gold Washing and Water Company, who are English capitalists. At Little Bear Valley, at the head of the ditch belonging to this company, nine miles above Liberty Hill, the snow is ten feet deep, and on the ridges to the right or left it is fourteen feet deep, with three feet of ice at the bottom. Mr. Doolittle thinks it will lfst at least until July: while last year most of the snow fell in February, and on account of its light character was all melted in thirty days thereafter. Mr. Doolittle predicts a prosperous season and a great demand for labor. THE DOLLAR STORE, Main St., opposite Court-house, DUNSMOOR BROS., Proprietors.
