Rain.-Ths long drought was broken on
Saturday evening last by heavy thunder
storm, which has been followed by several
fine showers. The benefit to vegetation
from the rain is incalculabls. The future
grass crop and the corn crop trembled in
th Q balance, and it is not easily to estimate
the loss that would have followed to the
latter crop had the drought been prolonged
few days. AS it is, many corn fields are
ruined and will not produce a single ear,

The Fair.

The week of the fair ends to-day.
One or two moderately fast horses
have been picked up in the country, or
brought into 1t from Santa Barbara or
San Diego; one or two moderately
respectable races have been run; a few
hundred visitors have been enticed by
promises never fulfilled, and the fair
is over. There is no Disgusting mat
ters, the fair has not been a success;
has not done credit to Los Angeles ana
Its resources. 1t has simply degener-
ated into q series of races; for to this
department, what little attention has
been bestowed upon anything, was
given. In the Rink, SIS has been the
entrance fee, and the reward OF merit
u scanty dollar or two. No one could
hope by excellence even to regain the
pittance required for entrance to this
department. As a result the exhibit
of goods has been small. The HERALD
will have more to say when the fair il
over and the tale Is told.

The Vulture mine is panning out

in the world, but it is some twelve
miles from water. A railroad or

the ore to the mills. Road steamers

Special Proclamation.
WAR DEPARTMENT,
ADJUTANT GENERALS OFFICE,

WASHINGTON, Oct. l3, 1878.
The President United States COM
mands il to be made known that all
soldiers who have deserted their colors,
and who shall, on or before the first
day of January, 1878, surrender them
selves at any military station, shall re-
ceive full pardon, only forfeiting the
pay and allowances due them at the
time of their desertion, and shall be
restored to duty without trial or pun
ishment on condition that they faith
fully serve through the term of their
enlistment.
BY order of the Secretary of War.
T.. ID. TOWNSEND,
Adjutant General.
The above order affects several thou
sand men now living on this coast.
Nearly $500 enlisted men of the
army have deserted their regiments,
stationed in the Pacific States and
Territories, since January, 1871.
Printed descriptive lists of these
men, and all others who have deserted
while serving on this coast, will soon
be placed in the hands of Marshals,
and Deputy Marshals of Districts,
Sheriffs, Magistrates and Police Off,
GERS.
Ii will thus be seen that many of
the deserters who do not deliver
themselves up under the liberal terms
now Offered by the President, will
surely be arrested, or live in peril of
arrest and punishment.

UTILIZING THE WArER.-California
has q great deal of water which runs
10 waste. Ii has water which ought
to be turning thousands of wheels, or
which should be wetting the ground
80 that grass and grain will grow.
The State Is naturally situated SO that
irrigation can be easily accomplished.
Every Winter nature piles up mois-
ture in the mountains in the shape of
snow, which, slowly melting, runs off
gradually, so that il can be utilized.
Canals and bitches can be easily con-
strucfed, so that the water may be
taken out of the natural drains and be
spread abroad over the rich lands of
the plains. The water source is so
much higher than the soils which need
irrigation that it is an easy matter to
convey the water TO the places which
want the unoisfnre. Very little has
heretofore been done in the matter,
but attention is being drawn in that
way.-[0nss Valley Union.

The Prescott Miner quotes incor-
rectly several passages from its coli
umns, which were telegmphed to the
HERALD from San Bernardino Inas-
much as the Miner has not yet had
any facilities for telegraphic news, it
is probably unaware that dispatches
are inserted generally rs received from
the hands of the operator. The HER
AID is not personally acquainted with
every lieutenant or storekeeper whose
doings the San BernardinO operator
may see fit to telegraph; and, at any
