Cos Cirrald. [From the Evening Express.] THE LAST OF HIS RACE. The Story of th» Terrible Bests cf the Last Member ef a Famous Tribe «f Los Ang.les Indiana. Tbe Malibu ranch was formerly tbe borne of quite a numerous tribe of Indians. They were known as the Pentango-Malibu-Seequite, and their bunting grounds extend ed to tbe territory of tbe Yang nans in this valley, and as far east as tbe Simls, who dwelt on tbe ranch of tbat name. Although the Sesquits were good hunters and possessed a flue range for game, tbey were more famous tor tbeir Ashing exploits than for the cbase. They were very expart in catobing tbe large fish that abound off the promontories ef Point Du mas and the reefs that project from the coast. The Sesquits were a strong, muscular, lithe and finely developed race. They were lighter In complexion, and more resem bled the handsome natives of Santa Catalina and tbe ether Chan nel islands than the inland Indi ans. Home of our people yet re call tbe time wben quite a number of Sesquits still occupied tbe Mal ibu ranch. But the contact of civ ilisation and a sweeping epidemic reduced their numbers bo greatly tbat fifteen years ago but one fam ily was known to have survived. Tbe head of this family was a line specimen of aborigine manhood, and be dwelt iv a wickyup at tbe mouth of Tepango creek, where it entered the sea, dividing in its course a ledge of rocks tbat reached well out into deep water. Between tbe main laud and this ledge of rooks tbe channel was over a man's bead wben the tide was up; but at low tide iteould be forded. Miguel, so this last relic of bis race was called by tho tjalifornians, was in tbe habit of crossing from his lodge to this ledge to fish. - It was a fa vorite piscatorial ground, and Miguel mauaged to keep bis little family well provided for with the fish he caught aud with tbecorn he raised near hie lodge. About tbe time of which we write, his family, well grown up, had scat tered, leaving the old man alone. He had two daughters end three suns. The former were kidnapped, it was said, by a baud of predatory Pala Indi ans, but it is probable they volun tarily eloped. The sons got into bad ways and joined a baud of Mexican horse thieves who bad made a secluded portion of the Malibu tbeir rendeavous and head quarters. Left alone in the world, Miguel continued to lead bis old life. He fished and bunted and cultivated in his rude uaauuer hie little corn-patch. It was some time iv 1870 tbat Bill Reynolds took a ooutract to make a survey of tbe raneb, and he nitched bis camp near the ledge Of Miguel. Reynolds had a Chinese cook be bad raised from boybood, aud who was devotedly attached to him. In their outfit was a beat, iv which' Hing (the cook) and Miguel fre quently made excursions to remote nsbing grounds and brought to camp varieties of deep sea fish that gratified the epicurean palate of tbeir patron. In these excursions Miguel related to Hing, who iv turn recounted to Reynolds, won derful stories of the wealth and power of bis tribe when he was a boy. He related how their great chief, Akaia, had made successful forays upon the tribss tbat dwelt near the Snow Mountains and re turned laden with spoils; bow tbey had great canoes that would carry twenty braves with tbeir bows aud slings and spears, and crossed tbe channel to the Islands end held pow-wows witb their brethren ou them aud feasted together for weeks; bow Miguel, in one of these excursions to Santa •Jatalina, carried away his bride by force, an act wbiob was followed by hostilities in which bis own tribe lost many warriors aud was at length compelled to submit to inglorious terms of peace, Miguel returning bis wife to ber father, giving up to tbe tribe his children, and going to the Island as a cap tive. How he remained there for many years, and hew at last tbe father of bis wife relented and she and his children were restored to him. These raminiscences were as interesting to Hing as tbey were supgestive of the past glories of )h» Sesquits to Reynolds. One morning Mr. Reynolds told Hing tbat as they would have to be away surveying all day, he should put Miguel an the ledge or rocks so tbat he could catch a good mess of fish for their supper when tbey retarned. Tbe boat was haul ed out of the creek to the cbaunel, and Hing having rowed M'guel across, returned to camp and de parted with bis master. Tbey got hack to camp just before sundown in the oveuiug, and saw Miguel starting out, it being low tide, to wade across the channel. Every thing was prepared to cook the evening meal. Mr. Reynolds re tired to bis tent and was enjoying the contents of a book in waiting for the call to supper. Whensufii clsnt time had ' elapsed, as he sup posed, for the meal to be ready, he emerged from tbe tent, and casting his eyes towards the ledge, he wae astonished to see tbat Miguel was exactly in tbe same position be oc cupied when tbey returned from the day's work. "Hing," said be, I think there is something tbe matter witb Mi guel. He seems to be in tbe tame place be was wben we arrived." Hing thought the Indian was doiug some still fishing for crabs or clams, and weuld be over soon. But Reynolds was not satisfied Placing a glass to biseyes, be said: "Hing, Miguel is not fishing. There is something serious tbe matter with him. Get tbe boat ready, and we'll pull over to him." Tbey did so. Wben tbey reached bim tbey were horrified with a sight so terrible tbat they were both unable to utter a word. The Indiau was standi ngim to his waist in tbe channel, but his body was held down by tbe tenatcles of an enormous devil-flsb, the peaKed mouth of which was fastened to hie abdomen and eating in'o hie entrails. His lower limbs and body were encircled with tbe longglutin ous arms of tbe mouster, mo that Ihe upper portion of his frame was fixed aud immovable. Looking at tho face of tbe poor Indian, Rey nolds saw that he was dead, but its distorted features showed tbat be had died in tbe most exoruoiat ing agony. Over his back still hung a sack, well filled witb fish, the result of his day's work. Reynolds was determined to res cue the body of tbe Indian for in terment, but tbe task was a diffi cult aud dangerous one. He de vised a happy expedient. Return ing to camp be procured a lariat, and with this he lassoed tbe dead man and towed bim to the shore, the monster still clinging to its prey. Af they hauled the Indian up ou tbe beaob, Hing ran a spear through its body, and with hatch ets severed the tentacles that still adhered to poor Miguel's remains. The arms of tbe devil fish were twelve feet long, and Its shield or body center measured three feet across. It was gorged with blood, and emitted its ink in showers as the spear pierced through its vitals. Miguel was buried near tbe camp, and lies there in his solitary grave beneath a tall sycamore tree, tbe living monument that marks the resting place of tbe last 6f the Sesquits. Southern California Commerce. [From the 8. F. Bulletin.] Tbe ports of Wilmington and San Diego assumed a prominence last year never before attained by tbem. The value of tbe foreign imports at Sau Diego in 1881 was $351,473, including 1259,200 for steel rails aud other material for tbe railroad now in course of con struction south from tbat place. Tbe value of tbe exports from tne same place was $233,900. The arri vals at Wilmington in 1881 em braced 35 vessels from loreign ports, all laden with coal with a single exception. These vessels lauded 52 400 tons of coal and 1,800 tons of steel rails at that point. The arrivals were from Europe, Australia and British Columbia. One of tbe vessels was the Three Brothers, one of the largest ships that visit California. Ten of the ships took cargoes of wheat tbence to Europe, one was.sent to Ban Di ego to load a similar cargo, aud nine came to San Francisco for tbe same purpose. Tbe exports from Wilmington to foreign ports last year embraced 745 bbis Hour. 338, --981 centals wheat and 155,800 lbs honey. The importance of Wil mington as a commercial port is to be brought to the attention of Con gress. It is understood tbat the House Commerce Committee has agreed to report favorably Pa checo's bill making Wilmingtou a port of entry, thus making three collection districts in California, viz.: Sau Diego, Wilmington aud San Francisco. Wilmington dis trict wiil comprise the waters aud shores of the couuties of Sama Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles and San Bemardiuo. Wilming ton will be a port of entry and Sau ta Barbara a port of delivery. This will necessitate the appointment of a Collector, Duputy Collector aud ono Inspector. The Colieotor will receive $3,000 a year aud tbe De puty Collector $1,500. Budget of News Gleanings. Miss Radclifid, aged 22 yeare, fell into the grate in her mother's bouse, south of Farmingtnn, near Stockton, on Sunday, and was so badly burned tbat ber life is de spaired of. She was subject to ep ileptio fits. A laborer, named Brady, ou tbe California Southern road,was stab bed iv a row at National City Sat urday night, and will probably die. Ex-Lieutenaot-Governor Purdy's fuueral at Sau Francisco was at tended by the California Pioneers. Charles Cushing, a boy, was kiiied Sunday afternoon near Mo desto while shooting ducks with pistols. James Mason's pistol went off accidentally and the bail struck Cushing, killing bim instantly. The officers engaged in investi gating the Portlaud murder case now incline to the belief that the killing of Brown by tbe Carrie Bradley gang was unintentional. Iv their opinion the deceased was enticed into the place aud drugged in order to prevent his giving testi mony against the house before the Grand Jury, which was to convene the day after bis disappearance. Iv their anxiety to Keep him quiet too much of thedrug was administered aud death resulted. They theu dis posed of the body for f.-ar of con sequences. Martin Vice, a well-known San Francisco boat builder,iu a quarrel witb Wm. Sbaefer, shot the latter in the thigh, Monday night, in a saloon, where the former was tem porarily atteuding bar. The wound is a serious one. BUSINESS CARDS. JUOSON, GILLETTE & GIBSON, EXAMINERS OF TITLE AND CONVEYANCERS, Rooms IS and 14, McDonald Block, Main Ht„ LOB ANGELES, Cal. septal f H.
