A Rare Chance.
Those two handsome houses on
Main street, offered for sale by W. H.
J. Brooks, can be purchased for $5,000
eacli, aud on the following terms:
$1,000 cash, the remaining $4,000 to be
paid as follows: $2,500 at one percent,
in one, two, three, lour or five years,
as the purchaser prefers. $1,500 for
the same term, also at one per cent,
per month, bay able in monthly in
stallments of $33 36, which, at the ex
piration of five years, would pay the
whole amount both principal and in
terest. Making the total monthly
payment which the purchaser would
have to pay $58 36, being no more
than a fair rent for that class of resi
dence, and with this further advan
tage that each payment would be for
the benefit of the occupant instead of
a landlord. Jarr23 2w

CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
SUNDAY FEB. 7, 1875.
Bkkchkr recently advised his dock
against idolatry, and begged that they
would not place him above the Savior.
The Alta says the Past has gone
Into Roman history. The editor of
the Post has a sort of roaming his
tory.
A San Francisco stock organ says it
is laudablo for clerks and servant girls
to dabble in mining stocks. Certainly;
and thereby struggle in poverty the
remainder of their days.
Another Indian doctor has been
transported to the happy hunting
ground. He was of the Hot Spring
tribe, and his patient died. There is
a sort ef rude justice among the abo
rigines.
The House Committee on Com
merce have agreed to recommend a
further appropriation of $30,0iKJ more
to complete the breakwater at Wil
mington. Competent engineers be
lieve that this amout will suffice to
finish the work.
The San Francisco Post says the
Los Angeles Orange has been exhibit
ing its stupidity by passing a series of
resolutions denouncing those members
of the State Board of Education who
voted for a change <->f school books. If
the Post were worth the powder a still
stronger series of resolution might be
passed denouncing its sapidity in
advancing what it knows to be a
swindle on the people.
Artesia.
Water is obtained by sinking wells
in all parts of Lot Angelea valley, but
in many localities Bowing wells are
struck at depths ranging from fifty to
three hundred feet. These artesian
wells are never-changing fountains,
and are both beautiful and useful. One
of them will irrigate a small farm, and
when in the hands of an industrious
man converts every inch of it into
productive laud. "The Los Angeles
Immigration and Land Co-operative
Association" have secured three
thousand five hundred acres of fine
land in one of these localities where
artesian wells may be dug on every
tract, and divided it into small farms
and homesteads, which they propose
to dispose of to settlers on terms so
liberal that persons of the smallest
means may provide themselves with
homes. The plan of payment is in
yearly instalments, in amounts so
small that common laborers may save
the sum out of their wages. The soil
of the entire tract is rich nnd exhaust
less and the trifling expense at which
wells may be obtained renders this
land desirable to all who wish to se
cure a few acres on which they may
grow everything that is indigenious to
a semi-tropical climate. Artesia lies
adjacent to Norwalk Station, on the
Anaheim Railroad, and may be
reached within one hour by rail from
this city. Tlie company have laid out
a town on the tract and named it Ar
tesia. They will also erect a fine
school-house on a two-acre lot reserved
for the purpose. For particulars see
advertisement in the Hkkald or en
quire at the office of the company at
1} Spring street, in this city.
A Newspaper Correspondent.
Who is he? Santa Barbara is af
flicted with the presence of a writer
from New York—it verbose corres
pondent of the New York Herald.
The atmosphere, water, fruit, or some
thing else in that lovely city, has
soured on the poor lellow's stomach,
and we judge from the language he uses
in the Herald of the 17th ult. that his
condition is critical. He is treating
his own disease, which makes the case
still more serious. Invalids in his
condition should not be permitted to
prescribe for themselves, and the good
citizens of Santa Barbara should pay
more attention to their invalid guests.
This demented man was permitted to
go alone to a druggist and buy a bottle
of medicine, for which he was charged
four bits. The effect of that bottle of
medicine, or the enormous price of it,
so inflamed the poor man's stomach
that he belched out a stream as long
as two and a half columns of the Her
ald of the most detestably bitter look
ing stuff we ever saw. We hope it
relieved him, but we seriously doubt
it any human being can survive whose
system once contained that amount of
poison. If we knew his name we
would advise his friends to come and
take him home. People afflicted as
this correspondent is should never
come to the Pacific Coast. There is
something in this climate or the fruits
of the country that increases the ma
lignity of tlie disease, and very few
such invalids ever live to return to
their auxious friends in the East.
Since writing the above, it has been
more than intimated to us that the
New York Herald correspondent
wanted some of the people of Santa
Barbara to "see him," and he would
write up their country. The Barba
rians couldn't see it; hence that bitter
article in the Herald. If this be true,
it accounts for many of the worst
symptoms in his case.
T. B. Campbell and James Giblan
have been arrested at Bantas, charged
with intending to tight a duel. Camp
bell sent the challenge, which Giblan
accepted.
Will it Pay?
No man embarks on an enterprise
now without asking the all important
question, will it pay? Life is too ac
tive and too short to waste time on
anything that will not pay. Besides
the world is exceedingly selilsh, and
cannot afford to contribute largely,
even to benevolent objects. We are
all in the boat together, and there are
but few exceptions to the above rule,
we are not disposed to blame anybody
for it; the world has gradually drifted
into this condition of things, and no
one is responsible. All we can do is to
keep iv the current and float with the
multitude. Perhaps a ml Hen I*l day
will dawn upon the world by and by,
and then—well! What then? We
don't know, and as we do not expect
to be here we are not much concerned
about it. We are now hunting some
thing that will pay, and if figures
do not lie, we know we have found it
in the Los Angeles and Independence
Railroad. There is not a road on the
continent that ever had half the pros
pects before it that this one has. The
whole mineral wealth of the richest
mineral territory on the globe is
tributary to it, and will be for all time
to come. It is a low estimate to say
that from the day of its completion it
will have one thousand tons of freight
per day. If it should not increase,
this alone is the grandest business
ever presented to a road. Look at it.
At least two million live hundred
thousand per annum, for freight alone.
The passenger traffic and mails will
more than pay the running expenses
of the road. But the freight will
double in a short time, when that road
furnishes facilities to develop the
mineral wealth of that vast territory.
As cheap freight is what we all want,
we will put the price to half our esti
mate, and we have a million and a
quarter per annum on freight alone.
Four millions will build tlie road.
The freight will pay twenty-live per
cent, on the investment, and give a
quarter of a million extra. Here is
the best permanent investment we
ever saw. It will pay. These esti
mates are from the figures of an old
railroad man who has carefully studi
ed the situation and has made his es
raates on safe grounds. There is still
another important matter to be con
sidered, and that is tlie certain and al
most immediate extension of the road
from the Point of Rocks on to a con
necting point with the Union Pacific
near Halt Lake, by which we shall be
placed five hundred miles nearer New
York city than San Francisco is to
that city. We hope our people will
see the importance of pushing the
road ahead. It is the greatest enter
prise in which we can engage for the
early and rapid development of South
ern California.
Centinela.
The pbject of the Centinela Land
Company is pretty well understood,
and the location and quality of the
soil they are placing iv the market are
familiar to all searchers after homes.
The Centinela pamphlet has been
scattered broadcast and read by the
thousands whose eyes are turned in
the direction of Southern California.
Hundreds of people now in this valley
have visited the tract and gone over
and examined it for their own infor
mation. Still a few words as to the
area of land, its quality, and the man
ner in which it is proposed to dispose
of it to the people, may be of interest
to new comers and those who have
not chanced upon the information
from other sources. The Centinela
tract is located six miles from Los
Angeles in the direction of the ocean.
It contains 20,000 acres, which it is the
intention of the company to sell off in
five, ten, twenty and forty acre farms.
The sale is to commence on Monday,
the loth inst., and will continue five
days. The sale is to take place at the
rancho. The Centinela is made up of
one broad, level, fertile valley of over
twenty thousand acres, and beautiful
fertile rolling hills near the ocean.
The soil is an exceedingly fertile loam,
and is, without exception, the richest
and most productive in Southern Cal
ifornia. Its vicinity to the ocean in
sures a crop without irrigation. Ex
cellent wheat has been raised for the
last two years upon the hills adjoining
the ocean. This wheat field contains
1,000 acres and covers the lightest soil
upon the rancho. There is no alkali
or barren land. A square mile has
been laid off for a town site,aud provis
ions are made for ample school facili
ties as soon as a snfflcieut number of
famities have located to make an edu
cational establishment necessary.
Those desiring further information
will obtain it by calling at "The
Bank" in this city or at the rancho.
Emma Mining Co. vs. Tenor W. Park,
Baxter and Senator Stewart.
Nkw York, February 4th.—The full
text of the published complaint of the
Emm* Silver Mining Company, of
London, against Trenor W. Park,
Baxter and Senator Stewart, suing for
$0,000,000 damages, for alleged fraudu
lent representations of the value of the
Kmma mine, is received. The com
plaint charges wilfully false state
ments of such value based on a men
dacious report by Prof. Benjamin
Silliman, for which the latter was to
receive a fee of $5,000, with $45,000
additional, contingent upon the sale of
the property. Baxter is the Wall
street operator who was associated
with Stockwell In the Pacific Mail di
rection. Among the various specific
charges is that of wilful concealment
of factt. One recites that in July or
August, 1871, an expert employed by
defendants reported to Park & Baxter
that one mass in tlie mine would soon
be found to thin down in itß length
and depth, and at its then rate of ex
traction the mine would soon be
stripped, and for the present practi
cally exhausted. Sebsequently de
fehdantscontracted with Baron Grant
to pay him a million dollars to organ
ize and carry out such measures as
would result in the selling of the mine
for $5,000,000.
Libel Suit against the "Sun."
New York, February 4th. — The
trial of the libel suit of William H.
Kemble, of Philadelphia, against
Charles A. Dana, for the publication,
in the Sun, of alleged libelous charges
affecting the character of the plaintiff,
damages being laid at $50,000, was be
gun yesterday in the Superior Court,
before Judge Curtis. Before the case
opened efforts were made to settle
without a trial. The plaintiff, after
the jury was impanneled, stated that,
not having brought the suit for the
sake of money, he was willing, if the
defendant should make a full retrac
tion, to allow judgment to be entered
for mere nominal damages. The de
fendant declined in any case to allow
judgment to be entered against him,
but was willing, if the suit was discon
tinued, to retract the charge made in
the Sun that the plaintiff had received
money. This not being satisfactory,
the case proceeded.
Oulton vs. San Francisco Savings and
Loan Society.
Washington, Febrnary 4th.—The

Section 1 of Article 8 of the Constitu
tion.
