The President and the Civil
Rights EilI.

WASHINGTON, Sept. II, 1874.-
The President to-day had direct con-
tact with the advocates of the Civil
Rights bill, brought bout by the re-
quest of prominet Southern carpet
haggers. He said that The issue o.
the Civil Rights bill was nOta political
necessity when the Senate passed it,
and bad it passed the House at this
last session he should
HAVE CERTAINLY VETOED IT.
lie blamed the Southern republi-
cans for urging it at a time when the
country was disturbed By financial
matters and when the issue woald
have unsettled political affairs.
"Mr. President" said Senator
Spencer. sit was reported that had
the bill passed you would have vetoed
it. Is that true?'
81 would certainly have done so /;
but should it pass at his next session
| can not say that / will veto it. 1t
may become my d1ty to sign it. The
responsibility will then rest with the
Southern republicans, who have forced
this question on the party" was the
re lpor Sc Of the President.

SHEEP HUSBANDRY.
Some Facts Concerning Different
Breeds Of Sheep-The Three Merines,

Some Facts Concerning Different
Breeds Of Sheep-The Three Merines.
EDITOR HERALD:-Sheep husband
ry, or wool growing, has been one of
the most important branches of indus
try in Southern California for many
years past, and it is likely to be an
important industry for years to come.
Therefore, the question is an impor-
tant one: What breeds of sheep are
most profitable =?
1t seems to be generally admitted
that the MerinO sheep are superior to
most profitable to rear. But there are
three varieties of Merino, the
SPANISH, FRENCH, AND sILEsIAN.
Each of these has certain claims to
excellence, but there is no agreement
among sheep men, as to which is most
profitable.
If we examine the history of sheep,
we shall find that all these varieties
have sprung from the Merinos of
Spain.
The French Merinos were exported
from Spain to France in 1855, but DUR
ing the long interval that has elapsed
since that time, they have become so
much changed that they now form a
district variety, differing materially
from the original stock and showing
the change which skillful breeders can
effect in domestic animals. The result
of the change has been to render the
French Merinos more valuable for
mutton and less valuable for wool.
Their weight has been greatly in
creased, but the quality of the wool is
much inferior to that of the Spanish
Merino.
TIE FRENCH MERINOS
Attracted much attention when first
introduced into the United States in
1913, but those who tried them were
disappointed, 1t was found that they
were hard to keep, and that they re-
quired One-fOurth more feed than the
Spanish Mcrino.
SPANISH MERINOS
Were imported into the United States
by Mr.. Jervis, more than sixty years
ago; but it is matter of regret that so
few of them have heen preserved in q
pure state. 1t was so common to cross
them with other breeds that at one
time the race of pure Merinos became
almost extinct. OF late years more
care has been taken of them, so that
now it is not difficult to find large
flocks of pure Merinos.
THE SILESIAN MERINOS
Are less known to the public than
the Spanish and French. They were
first imported to this country in 1851
from Germany. They are of medium
size, the ewes weighing from so to 100
pounds, and the bucks from 100 to $50
pounds. The wool is very fine and
compact, and the weight of the fleece
about the same as that of the Spanish
Merino. The length of the staple is
notquite so long but more compact.
Many regard the Silesian as supe-
rior to the other two varieties of
Merinos for fine grade wool. Still, the
most experienced wool growers are in
clned to regard the pure Spanish Mer-
mos as unequaled in all respects.
Next in value come the Silesian, and
lastly the French Merinos. M.

The Fabbri Troupe.

EDITOR HERALD: The music-loving
portion of your community has doubt
less been highly entertained by the
performances of the Fabbri combina-
ton, and retains pleasant impressions
Of the great degree of cultivation and
artistic execution which characterized
their singing. The world renowned
musical stars, Patti and Nillson, re-
volve in an orbit marked by the great
cities of the continent, where wealth
and fashion delight to do homage to
their genius, and eXtol the greatest
living opponents of musical art.
Los Angeles being unfortunately
somewhat remote frsm the pathway
of these luminaries of song, and on
other accounts unable to enjoy their
presence, is, however, to be congratu-
lated upon the visit of two such tai
ented artists as Madame Fabbri and
Miss Elzer. These are singers who
have justly elected much praise and
admiration on account of the vocal
powers with which they are gifted and
the rare degree of perfection to which
they have brought them by unremit-
ting study and discipline.
Madame Fabbris singing is certainly
deli ghtful; and when under the influ-
ence of her voice we listen to notes of
melody poured forth in volume of
song, to brilliant feats of trilling war;
bled with striking ease and grace, to
dazzling flights among the highest
notes unfettered by that laborious eff
fort so painful to an audience, and
which creates sympathetic fear of
disaster at the climax, we are COM
PEELED to accord her more. than meas
ured compliment and equivocal praise.
Yet none the less completely does
Miss Elzer sway her auditors with the
rich impassioned tones of hercontralto
voice. Well nigh faultless in eXecu-
ton, admirable in the enunciation of
tones, full, pure and well modulated,
texcelling In the facility with which
she vanquishes the difficulties of musi-
cal composition, amid all the profusion
=. of notes, she charms most with an ex-
preston eloquent with feeling and
sentiment But the eliminating tri.
umph of her resources is displayed in
those low and long sustained notes,
which impartto her voice the distinct
i've qualities of contralto, and in
whose deep vibrating tones are blended
the melody and power of her voice
compass. AUDITOR.

In these days Of boating, parties are constant
ly forming for pleasure excursions upon the

and richest Of experiences. case in point
Day before yesterday, in accordance with the
invitation of several young gentlemen OF this
city, number OF ladies came INTO town from
neighboring summer resort for a sail III a yacht
which is a great favorite, and which has good
reputation for swiftness Notwithstanding IL
failed TO win any of the prizes in the Chester re-
gatta The hour appointed for the start was
o'clock, but by reason of unforeseen contingen-
cies, tue boat did not head out the creek until
l. Then all was Joy and serenity on board. ta-
voring winds drove on tue noble vessel aud go
pleasant was the voyage that the party failed TO
| note the distance Travelled or the departure OF
the day until the long shadows OF evening be-
gan to stretch themselves out over the water.
| lhev then awoks to the necessity for the retnrn,
but when the boat was turned about 1t declined
to progress in the opposite direction. A pro-
found calm prevailed, aud the party hoated
about at the mercy OF the tide.
Some time after midnight the yacht was borne
down to the mouth of the creek by the current,
| but arriving there new obstacles presented them
selves. The tide was still at its ebb and as there
| was wind OF course 1t was Impossible TO as

so little progress made in this way that a
new policy was adopted To hasten TO their desti-
nation before the first rays of light should ap-
pear in the East lhe ladies were requested 10
20 below into the hold, where they were locked
up, aud the gentlemen then diyested themselves
Of their clothing and jumping overheard at the
shoal places pushed the yacht along through the
water, reaching the wharf about o'clock.
10 add to the misfortune OF the ladies, they
lost their way after they had got beyond the cit,
returning to their temporary place of abode, an6
rumor saws they Travelled all the roads leading
IN tie direction of their destination before
they struck the right one.
The ssrangest part of the whole circumstsnc
is that the E0ery Euealng should suffer it to pas
