Although a large section of South ern California is claimed to be semi tropical in its climate and productions and notwithstanding the admitted fact that semi-tropical fruits are pro duced in great perfection in certain isolated localities scattered through out the southern part of the State whore the soil and climate happen to be exceptionally favorable, still the appellation semi-tropical is only cor rectly applied to that part of the State where such productions are the rule, und not the exception. The true semi-tropical section of California is to be found only in that part of the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernar dino and San Diego which lies be tween the Sierra Nevada mountains and the Pacific Ocean. The mountain range, rising from 4,000 to 10,000 feet above the level of the sea, serves in all cases as a partial and Id many places as a complete barrier to the destrue tivo and dessicating north winds which so often blast the hopes of the cultivator in other parts of the State. The sea-breeze, so harsh and rough on the northern coasts, here becomes soft, gentle and delicious. Nature seems to have exerted herself to create a climate so temperate as to avoid the extrentes of heat and cold; for a country where the soil is inexhausti bly fertile, the unfailing productive ness of which is assured by an abund ant supply of water for irrigation, •.vbieh can be obtained in a very large portion of the above-mentioned sec tion. Rain is an uncertain depend ence in all parts of California—more particularly so in the southern part of the State; and although good grain crops can occasionally be produced on dry lands in favorable seasons, no binds in this district can be considered certainly and unvaryingly productive except the portions which arc natu rally moist or those which have a cer tain and unfailing supply of water for irrigation. No matter how fertile the soil or how favorable the climatic conditions may be, no man can suc ceed in the cultivation of semi-tropi cal fruits without a reliable supply of water; therefore, the only part of this semi-tropical district which is worthy of consideration is the part which possesses water for irrigation. With the exception of a few isolated valleys of >mall extent in San Diego county, the great bulk of these lands lie in the valleys of the three principal rivers of Southern California —the Santa Ana, the San (iabrlel and the Los Angeles, with their respective branches. The San Gabrel Valley, including San Fernando, San Jose and Los Angeles Valleys, contains about 200,000 acres, of which probably 100, --000 acres can be irrigated, either by ditches or artesian wells, all of which are within the limits of Los Angeles county. The Santa Ana Valley, in San Bernardino couuty, contains about 200,000 acres, 100,000 of which is irrigable, principally from the river, which flows through the center, the balance being irrigable by artesian wells aiid by small streams flowing from the mountains. That part of the Santa Ana Valley ly ing in Los Angeles county contains about 200,000 acres, all of which is ir rigable either by ditches or artesian wells. Outside of these two principal valleys there is possibly 10,000 or 15, --000 acres of irrigable land, principally in San Diego county. According to the foregoing estimate, there is in this district about 415,000 acres of irriga ble land, capable of sustaining com fortably 200,000 people, estimating ten acres to a family, of five. That quan tity of land in tropical fruits would yield a very comfortable income to a much larger family, but as only the lands that have a certain elevation above the sea are suited to the growth of semi-tropical fruits, the low ' and moist lands would be devoted to the culture of tobacco, corn, or alfalfa, particularly the latter; ten acres of irrigated alfalfa will furnish abundant f jed for fifty dairy cows, whose pro duce in butter and cheese would make an industrious family rich in a few years. If all the lauds suitable to the growth of alfalfa in Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties were utilized and stocked witli good dairy cows, the dairy produce of this section would be greater than that of the whole State, in the north it requires ten acres to sustain one cow with dry feed half of tie year. Whilst here one acre of al falfa will sustain •with constant green feed from four to six cows the entire year; and in consequence of the supe rior feed the produce will be not only superior in quality but at least fifty per cent, greater in quantity. And although the products of the dairy are not of a tropical nature, they are just as rich in color, and far better adapted to the needs of humanity. This fa vored country can produce almost everything in the line of agricultural proiuctions just a little better than anywhere else. We lack ouly one thing, and that is an energetic and industrious population; they are com ing in slowly and surely, but if our advantages were more generally known they would come in a flood, and fill our broad and fertile valleys with smiling and happy homes. No Work for Women. When the telegraph flashed the In formation that some five hundred of tiie female employees in the United States Treasury Department were to bo discharged, and that on being in formed of the fact eighteen of thorn were so overcome that thoy fainted, we all smiled a cynical sort of ninile and said in a derisive sort of Way, " poor things." We all thought these em ployees were young ladies, many of them not dependent on their salary for a living. We did not stop to think that a large proportion of those dis charged employees were poor women —soldier's widows—with families of helpless children to support and only their earnings to draw upon. Yet it is true. These women are not all girls, nor are they able to live without work. During the war times and for some time alter the death of the rebellion, many women whose husbands, fathers and brothers fell in battle, were given employment about the Capitol. They made excellent clerks, and were well liked by all for whom they labored. But these poor women could not vote, and as the Administration found itself falling behind—its majority growing small by degrees and beautifully less it became apparent that the lady clerks must give place to those having votes and willing to place those votes at the disposal of the men who gave them places. Thus the widow and the orphan are driven from the desks and turned in the streets to beg or starve, or—die. Millions are stolen, thrown away, pocketed, by the thieves that haunt every avenue of the na tional capital, but the poor, honest, hardworking widow whose husband died in the cause of his country, is de nied the privilege of earning the bread for her orphaned children. "Cæsarism." Senator Gordon, who |g an inti mate friend of President Grant —per- haps he is even more of a friend than Senator Jones—has been asked if he thought the President aspired to a third term, and replied: "I certainly do. I think that President Grant is exceedingly anxious to run again, and is very apt to do so. lam very inti mate with him —as much as almost any one—and he is always very cor dial with me. I think he certainly intends to run again." He also added that he did not think that the President wished to be the Republi can nominee. It is his opinion that he desires to run as the People's can didate. There are two interesting fea tures in this statement. One is that Grant certainly intends to be a can didate for re-election, ami the other is the excellent joke he intends playing on the Republican party. He does not care to be the leader of that party any longer! How are the mighty fallen ? Pacific Coast Items. Threshing has commenced in the grain-fields back of Vallejo. The citizens of Petaluma are again agitating the establishment of a shoe factory in that city. Last week five Sacramento houses shipped 283 tons of fruit and vegeta bles over the mountains. A new town has been laid out at Durham Station, in Butte county, by Judge O. C. Pratt on lands of the i'ratt grant. T. S. Chapin and W. Finch are erecting a building at Vacaville for the purpose of drying fruit by the Al lien process. A Local Option petition from Salt Point, Sonoma county, has been re jected for want of the required number of petitioners. Persons who have been through Shasta Valley and the hills around it, say the grass is better than it has been for years. Eight feet, two inches, is the height of some oats left at the office of the Petaluma Argus by John Shearer, of Vallejo township. Chico has become an important point for shipment of lumber. There were shipped from there during the month of June 89 car-load*. The Kern county Courier says that a sad state of lawlessness exists at Kernville, and, unless corrected, good citizens will be compelled to leave. The appeal of Havilah on the ques tion of the county seat of Kern county lias been dishonored, and Bakersfleld still remains the county seat. Says the Petaluma Argus of Satur day: "The fogs that have prevailed for several mornings past will prove of great benefit to the potato' crop." The town of Colusa has passed an ordinance providing for the punish ment of such persons as may be con victed of misdemeanor by labor in a chain-gang. Thursday last was the hottest day of the season in Shasta; also in Weaver* ville. In the former place the ther mometer went up to 102°; in the latter to 101°. P. L. Stull. of Perm valley, Nevada county, besides abundance of other fruit and grapes, will have, it is esti mated, about 20,000 pounds of black berries this season. Grasshoppers in great numbers have made their appearance in the vicinity of Valley Ford, in Sonoma county, and fears are entertained that they will do great damage to vegetation. William Stonebraker, whose ranch is in Big valley, Lake county, has eighteen acres of alfalfa, in a flourish ing condition. In this field he has about twenty head of cattle grazing the year round. The Supervisors of Mendocino county have ordered the people of Big River and Ten-Mile River Townships to vote September 9th whether they will be taxed for the purpose of having free bridges or not. The school of Mare Island was opened Monday morning, after a vaca tion of about a couple of months. The children celebrated the occasion by a very fanciful decoration of the school room with flowers and evergreens. The Shasta Courier says: "Theodore Popejoy and others, who recently lo cated the original Williams and Kel linger claim at Copper City, have taken out some very rich quartz rock, and sent it to San Francisco to have it tested." The Yreka Union of Saturday says: "Considerable new hay has been hauled into town during the last week or ten days. Most of it is a mixture of wheat or barley and wild oats, or wild grass of some kind, or alfalfa. But little timothy has as yet been brought into market." Latest Telegrams. BEECHER DENIES EVERYTHING, THE CITY OF BOSTON. EXCITING TIMES IN SPAIN. EASTERN. 1 lie Veterans Come Together. PATTERSON, N. J., July 22.—Tbeeity is crowded with strangers to-day, and it is handsomely decorated in honor of the grand reunion of veterans. Pres ident Grant and Secretary Robeson and Governor Parker arrived nt half past two in a special train, when there was a parade of the veterans and the militia, after which a collation was served. The reunion was a complete success. There were three thousand people at the wigwam. Coventor Parker presided, and Hon. W. W. Phelps delivered the address. Short and felicitous speeches were made by Secretary Bobeson and President Grant. There was a promenndc con cert in the evening. What Reedier Ray*. New York, July 23,—Beecher, in a card, gives the most solemn denial of the truth of the specific charges made by Tilton. Tilton will apply for a divorce from his wife. What Judge Spencer Says. Washington, July 23. —Judge Spen cer, Solicitorof the Treasury, lias given an opinion that in orderto comply with the law, rajlroad companies must furnish postal cars on their lines; that these are the requisite facilities named by Congress. Something from the City of Host 011. New York, July 23.—A beach searcher lias found "a bottle on the coast of Florida with a paper hearing the following information: " Steam ship City of Boston. To all to whom this message may come—That I, the undersigned, passenger on this ship, write the following statement: On Sunday night last a heavy storm arose at 12:30 and increasing; at 1:20 all hope lost; at 4:02 o'clock, going down. Signed, John Caswell, of Lon don, England." Near tlie place where the bottle was found was a board, on which was some penciling, nearly illegible, which read: " We have now taken to the boats as our last resort." The board was headed " City of Bos ton." FOREIGN NEWS. What President Mae.Hahon Suj*. Parts, July 22.—President MaeMa hon, in response to a deputation of Members of the Assembly, who waited on him to-day, said that he was not summoned to power in order to restore either a monarchy or an empire. His acts proved to all that he would not participate in such an enterprise. The law which created the septemate still less imposed on him the task of constituting a definite republic. M. Peri's bill offered him nothing, but by isolating him from the Conservatives, by whose aid ho wished to govern, and would deprive him of much counsel; consequently, the Ministers would declare in ids name that he rejected the project, In conclusion lie expressed the opinion that a proclamation of the republic might disturb order and peace; but if the laws he asked for were voted, the septemate would become a movement calculated to inspire confidence and respect. What England Thinks. London, July 23.—The Lord Mayor gave a banquet to-night to Her Maj esty's Ministers at the Mansion House. Disraeli, in answer to the Ministry, said no one was able to view the state of Europe with complacency. Every one must deplore the anarchial condi tion of some of the most favored coun tries. The friendship of England was never more sought for by the leading powers of Europe and America. En gland would use her influence in the interests of peace. Lively Times iv Spain. Madrid, July 23.—Brigadier-Gen eral Pinto has defeated a detachment of Don Alfonso's army at Salvanete, in the province of Cuenca, delivering seven hundred prisoners taken by the Carlists at Cuenca, and capturing eight officers of Alfonso's staff, with a considerable quantity of arms and baggage. The Carlists' loss in killed and wounded and prisoners was heavy. The Carlists' shot one hun dred and sixty Republican prisoners at Olat. The Government has order ed contributions to be levied on parti sans of Don Carlos property. Tho Carlist residents in Cuenca have been seized to indemnify tho relatives of the Republicans killed during the siege. SAN FRANCISCO. Hecnnnlcw" Institute PavilionJFogj uud Shinning — Local Option ~ A FilEhter Fined. San Francisco, July 23.—The Pa vilion of the Mechanics' Institute fair will be completed Saturday next. The dense fog which has prevailed here for several days past lifted yes terday and disclosed twenty vessels lying off the harbor, waiting to sail, and others to come in. The weather remains foggy on the bar to-day. Temperance women, to the number of twenty-five, have Anally com menced circulating petitions to the Board of Supervisors asking them to order a Local Option election in this city. They are all volunteers in the work. Leslie Blackburn, who was convict ed of an outrageous assault and bat tery on tho Treasurer of the Alham bra Theatre, was fined to-day $140 by the Police Court. [SECOND DISPATCH.] Sailing of Steamer*—A Suit Oat or tbe Old Diamond Swindle—The Tartar Uoes to Australia.

Lent to recover $20,000, which he paid for five hundred shares of the great diamond company's stock, known as the San Francisco and New York Min ing and Commercial Company.

It has been finally determined that the steamer Tartar shall sail for Aus tralia next Tuesday. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. SU3I MOINS. Thep opioof the Mate of Californin, send greeting to a!
