Connor was largely attended yesterday. Good bye, Chinese. Los Angeles street is to be opened. The target practice of the Guards yesterday was highly creditable, To-morrow is to be a galaduy at the Arroyo Seco. The Guards expect a large number of visitors. Tho Cordona lots are being cleared of the burned debris preparatory to build lag. Mr. Kilpatrick addresses the Father Matthew Temperance Society to-uight at the Court House. Do you want to rent a good sewing machine? Go to A. M. Janes, 60 Spring street. Two wings are to be added to St. Vincent's college, and a third story is to top the main building. Judge Caswell, of Nevada City, Grand Lecturer of the Chapter, R. A. M., is in the city and will remain sev eral days. The loser of a carpet-sack or hand valise might hear of something to his 6 dvantage by Bailing at the police offlce. Fifty uo,»ars reward Ih offered for the return of a pocket-book contain ing valuable papers. See advertise ment and return it to this office. In Mayor Beatidry's court yesterday a drunk got a sobering dose of $9.60, and a case of malicious mischief was held under advisement. Los Angeles Guard are requested to attend the picnic to-day and to assem ble at the armory at 8 o'clock sharp this morning. We had the pleasure of a call last evening from Geti. Mansfield of New- York and Mr. Howell of Providence, K. 1., who expressed themselves highly pleased with Los Angeles. For your subsistence to-day, take a square meal at the St. Charles Restau rant. All delicacies of the season will be served at dinner In good style and abundance. The raffle for tbe benefit of the Ca. thedral Building Fund was held yes terday at 2J p. M. at Steams' ball, and the lot was won by ticket No. 294. The lot is a valuable one, sit uated neat the terminus of the Sixtli street railway. Mr. M. C. Desnoyers leaves this morning for Montreal. He has in vested largely in Los Angeles and will shortly return. We wish him a pleasant journey and a cool Summer on the St. Lawrence. For the best and cheapest cabinet, promenade or card photographs to be had in the city, go to the Cottage Gal lery of Williams & Smith, on Fust street, near Spring. The best quality of work at the lowest possible price is the motto of the establishment. In the trial of the prismoidal rail road yesterday, one man drew the car and thirty passengers both ways over the track. At another time fifteen passengers were placetl on one side of the car and it was easily drawn by one man. We see in the passengers by the Orizaba, which arrives to-morrow, Dr. E. Ellis, wife and aunt. This is a good way of ignoring a female rela ive. Next we will hear of some en terprising man registering himself at the St. Charles, John Smith, lady and mother-in-law. Prof. Dorian's school has no later* missiou, but goes on as usual. The parents of children under his charge are pleased that he has concluded to teach through the Summer months. Vacations are not so much needed in this climate, as they are in the op pressive heat of tlie Eastern States. The Board of Directors of the Fast Los Angeles and San Pedro Street Railroad, after a thorough investiga tion, have adopted the prismoidal system for their road and have author ized the manager to proceed at once to order the necessary material for five miles of road; that is, from the South city limits to East Los Angeles, and if sufficient stock is taken in East Los Angeles, the track will be extended to the new depot. Louis Planel, a young American vi olinist, appeared forthe first time in public this season and hud an Immense success at a concert in Pans given by Miss Alice Sydney Burvett, the Aus tralian pianiste. Mr. Planel comes from San Francisco,has studied at the Paris Conservatoire, and now plays with more than ordinary skill, and a brilliant future is predicted for the young genius. America has none too many violinists not to gather new lau rels, and we expect soon to hear of Mr. Planel's return home. The Republican County Convention met at the court house at 11 o'clock a. jl, and was organized by the election of C. C. Lips as President, W.W. Rob inson Vice President, and Get*. C. Knox Secretary. After the report of the Committee on Credentials thecon vention selected the following Central Committee: E. Bouton, J. it. Briefly, Frank Cowdeu.W. W, Robinson, J. J. Carrillo, A. T. Currier, Geo. C. Knox. The following were named delegates to State and Congressional Conven tion: C. B. Johnson, E. Bouton, .1. it. Brlerjy,James MoFadden, Frank Cow den,.D. M. Berry, A. T. Currey, The©. Reiser. The Convention then adjourn ed, subject to the call of the County committee. We are glad to~see that the"organ ization of another tire company in t ti is* city is an assured fact. The company will probably be tilled up and elect its officers ou Tuesday evening next. The Council will doubtless order another steam fire engine in a few <lays,which on its arrival will be given in charge ofthe new company. With another company and another engine under his control, our efficient chief will add to the honors he has already won as a fighter of the destroying element. The great advantage we shall gain from having two well manned engines is in being able to cope with two tires at the same tune. But for the failure of the plans of the incendiaries a few nights aico we should have had Iwo conflagrations raging at the same moment, with but one engine to sup press them. VVe must provide against another chance like that. The people of Los Angeles will re gret to loam they are about to lose the Valuable professional services of Dr. R. Hilton Chase. The doctor leaves by to-day's steamer for Oakland, where it is now his purpose to resume the practice of his profession. Dr. Chase came to this city from Detroit, Michi gan, in August of last year. His pur pose in visiting this coast was to re gain, if possible, his health, which had been somewhat impaired during his long residence in Michigan. Shortly after his arrival here ,he re sumed his profession and soon ac quired an extensive and lucrative practice, but failing to find the boon for which he was in search — good health—and finding himself unable to meet the demands tor his professional services, he has determined to leave his business in the hands of another and try for a time the air of Oakland. We regret to lose the doctor and trust that he will find as many and as earnest friends in his new home as he leaves behind in Los Angeles. Till Tapping Extraordinary.

I.iirkln aud Vivian. Editor Herald: Two new store buildings have recently been erected In the centre of our place. This makes the fourth now ready for use, all of which will be occupied iv a very short time. One is the Grauge Store, one will be opened by Mr. Davis of Ana heim, one by Mr. Mallett of Orange, and the fourth yet remains to be se cured. All other departments are In a state of increasing prosperity. It is a matter of continual astonishment, even to the oldest settler of the place, to note the rapid settlement of the un improved land. If I were to make in estimate, I should say that at least HALF A SUCTION A MONTH Is cut up into small lots and placed under cultivation. The gravel lands to tho North and Northeast of the town proper, seem to have the choice of settlers at present. These lands are unsurpassed in the production of fruit and a line quality of grapes. They are not quite so easy to work as a pure loam, hut their situation is so com manding and their fertility so great that this slight obstacle Is not allowed to hinder their development in the slightest degree. It is on this land that the orange orchard of Mr. Mes senger is situated. This is perhaps the largest orchard of its age iv the State, containing forty acres of trees, four years old. The almond orchards now present a very beautiful appear ance. The cultivation of the almond has received a great deal of attention here and promises the richest rewards. Captain Glassell now values his ten acres, partly set with almonds, at four thousand dollars, and says he will sell it for that much in a short time. Other almond orchards worthy of special mention are those of Mr. Huntington, Mr. Lockwood, and Mr. Chas. T. Har ris. These gentlemen all display the greatest taste and judgment In the ar rangement of their orchards and well deserve the beautiful homes they have growing around them. Our school is now in tlie most flour ishing condition. Mr. Furlong has recovered from his sickness and every thing is moving along nicely. The sage and cactus lands "AI'UOSS THK SAN MAGUS," Are being rapidly cleared. There are in reality Hie llnest lands in tbe tract, being so light and easily worked and yet of sufficient body to make the most excellent rouds. By the way, our roads are one great item in the sum ol our advantages. They are nat ural pikes, almost entirely free from dust at all times and affording the most delightful driveways. A very few years will suffice t< give us the advantage over every otlu-rsec tion of the country iv this inspect. Tlie roads are being extended iv all directions and continual improve ments are being made in the way of setting out avenues of blue-gum, pep per, orange, walnut, poplar, willow and other varietiesof trees, in all parts of the tract. The flnest drive I know of is the one up tho cation of the Ban Diagus. Mas any one told you about it? We have here a natural park of the greatest beauty. A grove of live oak, willow and sycamore trees stretches up the cafion for about three miles and affords the flnest picnicking ground in the State. As soon as the Anaheim railroad is extended across the .Santa Ana river, which will he in a few months, Los Angeles will send as many picnics to this " Los Angeles Comity Park" as she now does to the Arroyo Seco or to Hauta Monica. Sometime 1 will describe this park to yon in full. I have not time 1 v. , Wf have had some very pleasant P. NT R KTA IN M E NTS Of late, On Tuesday evening of this Week Mrs. Dr. Larkin favored us with two short addresses on the subject of " Womau Suffrage." She Is an ardent advocate, and so frightened the gen tleman who had intended to oppose her in debate that his speech was only a supplement to hers. Several gentle men were called out, but no one was hardy enough to make much opposi tion, and the "suffragers" had it all their own way. The best short speech of the evening, and one of the best pro minute speeches lever listened to,was made by Mr. Arthur Johnston. The rrentlemau elicited a continual round of applause and retired covered witli glory. But even Mr. Johnston's speech aud every other entertainment we have had in this section of country, is compelled to give place to the delight ful performances of the party who favored us on Thursday evening. MX. VIVIAN And tlie entire party have the sincere gratitude of our community. The en tertainment was well advertised, but the gentlemen not being personally known to many of us, it was not ex pected that we were to be treated to so artistic a performance. The house was crowded with an appreciative audience and the whole affair was a delightful success. Showers of bouquets from fair hands repaid the performers, and we all unite in a cordial invitation to the party to "come again, and we will do more for you next time." W. Brooklyn Heights. After a thorough inspection of this property, we are convinced that the tract lately purchased and surveyed by the Brooklyn Land aud Building Company will become at no distant day oue of the moat delightful resi dence portions of our city. The tract lies on the Eastern 9ide of the river, only a short distance from the Aliso street bridge. It is on the high mesa and commands a view of the entire city aud valley In front, with the beautiful prospect placed in relief by the mountains to the North and East. The distance of the property from the centre of the city is not more than three-quarters of a mile and this it is proposed to overcome by a street rail road. For this road a company has already been formed, stock subscribed and an application to the Council for a franchise will be made at their next session. As soon as the Water Com pany can make the necessary mains they will extend them across the river at tiiis point and all the lots, not only of the Brooklyn Company, but also of the Lazzarovich tract and Boyle Heights, the property of Mr. W. H. Workman, will be supplied with the necessary aqueous fluid. With the street railroad and water privileges secured, there will be an immense rush for this property and no doubt men of means will take advantage of the magnificent location to build their villas and fine residences there. Be sides the advantages of the city, Brooklyn will have itscharming view, pure air and entire freedom from dust. None of the disagreeable wind- occa sionally sweeping down the iSim Fer nando valley ever reach this point,but only the cooling breeze to and from the sea. SUNDAY READING. Selected for Sunday's lIBKAI.n. THE WELL OF LOCH WARES Calm on tie- breast of Loch Wares A IIIIIe Isle reposes; A Shadow woven of the oak And willow o'er II closes. Within, a Dl aid's mound is seen, >et round with stony warders; A fountain, gushing through Ihe turf, Flows o'er its grassy borders. And WhSSO bathes therein his hrow. With care or madness burning, Feels oik c again bis healthful though; And Reuse of peace returning. o! restless heart and fevered brain, Unquiet and unstable, Thai holy well of Loch Ward- Is more than idle fable. Life's change! vex, its discords stem. Its glaring sunshine hlindeth, And blest is he who on his way That fount of healing fludelh. The shadows of a humbled will And contrite heart ac o'er it; To read its legend, " Thcst in 'iod," Oil Faith's while stone before it. — WhUHer. The Simplicity of It. If we look at it in the simplest way, what is religion ? It is only trying, by God's help, to do whatever is right. For a person who has not been doing that, the way to begin is perfectly simple. It is to give up and turn away from all willful wrong-doing, and to look constantly for sympathy and help to that loving God whom Christ bat taught us to call Father. It is to try to live in the spirit of Christ, not only in purity and inno cence, but iv active love toward all human beings and in dependence on the love of the Highest. To reach perfection in this life is along, long task; but to set one's face inward it and make a beginning is a simple matter. Indeed, in a Christian fam ily, it constantly happens that a child makes some beginning and growth in this life from its very earliest years. There may come a time of conscious, deliberate acceptance of a Christian purpose; but long before that the child bus probably been learning to be gentle and obedient, truthful and helpful, and to look to God as its friend, it is the natural and right way that one should thus grow up to be a Christian and that the beginning should be us far back and uncertain as the time when the child began to talk. — Exchange. Songs of Heaven. "Cousin," said a little three-year old, being rocked to sleep by his rela tive, "Cousin, sing Willie songs about Heaven." Soon after the child died, but the seed he sowed bore fruit, for "cousin" vow, with little ones of her own, never soothes them to rest with other songs than those of Heaven.
