tune fall to him, he can generally
aoapt himself to it, but if he has
poor farm aud a poor pocket it is hard
work to adapt himself TO them. BY ed
ucation We can adapt ourselves TO many
different kinds of business, but we seem
to be better adapted to the freside than
to the farm. We sit by the Preside and read
the papers and blame them, because the
papers don't hoe the corn. Oar daugh-
tiers are not adapted to the business of a
farm-wite and | havn't the disposition to
blame them for trying TO dodge it. There
are those that are adapted and others
that can adapt themselves if they choose.
Such should be sought after by the far
mer.
w. II. misunderstanding to re.
marks made here tonight, success in
farming consists in the amount of money
accumulated. Is it true? Who are our
successful farmers, those that stay at
home and never leave the farm week day
or Sunday, except TO attend town.meet-
ing or school-meeting to vote against lib
eral men and liberal measures, or those
that have neat and desirable farms,
minus the fortune
REV. A. p. BARNARD.-Thisis an i'm
portant and interesting question and not
an easy one to solve to the satisfaction of
thinking minds. | think good distinc-
tion could be made between natural and
and acquired adaptation. There are some
natural proclivities that stand out so
prominent that it never seems right to
stop their ends or lower their aim, others
may be changed in their inclinations,
without harming the individual in the
least. | think that many boys have been
sent to college, to their ruin, that might
have made respectable and honored citi-
zens, had they remained on the farm.
We should not rely wholly upon natural
adaptation. There are many young men
so circumstanced that 1t becomes neces
sary that they should remain on the farm
1t seems to me that such young men ar,
serving noble purpose. They may no
be able to educate themselves as they
otherwise would, but they can at least be
come men of practical ability. A wore
t about leaving the tarm. think we hav,
failed to give to the business its prope
dignity. We need to learn that it is no
Bile and honorable to work. We do no
expect to keep all our sons and daughter
on the farm, but | see no reason VIII,
people cannot make farming pleasant
see no reason why they cannot work in
telligently. There is much in our abilit,
to adapt ourselves to our work. What
ever we do we should do we'll, that on
place in honorable society may be justl,
merited.

A LITTLE ONES LovE.-The Pough-
keepsie Eagle tells an affecting little
story of a child between two and three
years old whom lady found walking
on the street, evidently lost, and crying
bitterly:
Taking her by the hand, the lady
asked her where she was going. I'm
going down town to find my papa," was
the reply, between sobs, of the child
What is your papa's name 7" asked
the lady. His name is papa" replied
the innocent little thing. But what ia
his other name, "queried the lady what
does your mama call him?" "She calls
him papa" persisted the baby. The la
dy then took the little one by the HAND
and led her along, saying, You haC
better come with me; l guess you cam
this way" "Yes, but l don't want +
go back l want to find my papa, re
piled the little girl, crying afresh as
her heart would break. What do 20
want of your papa?" asked the lad,
al want to kiss him." just then a 81
ter OF the child came along looking fl
her, and led her away, From suhsequel
inquiries it appeared that the little one
papa, whom she was so earnestly
search of, had recently died. In h
lonesomeness and love for him she tir,
of waiting for him to come home, b
gone to find him and greet him with t
accustomed kiss.

The chester Liquor Prosecutions.

Mr.. EDITOR IL saw notice in last
weeks TINES (by your correspondent
of the prosecution of Farrell OF the
Chester House, judging from the view
which the signers of that infamous petit
ton seemed to take of it, such occur
rencies are becoming very popular here,
This is the same Farrell who was found
guilty of similar offence by the Grand
Jury at Woodstock, a short time since,
and who (report said was going to show
the people of Chester how to keep a
temperance House. | suppose this is a
popular way of keeping temperance
house, but the total abstinence people OF
Chester do not fancy his style, you are
probably aware that all who are able to
keep out of the ditch claim to be tenn
perance men and we have plenty of that
class in this town. | should have said
nothing more on this subject but for the
criticism of your correspondent as my
real estate is somewhat limited according
to his representation (Which is very true
have plenty of time. Augustus Is
rather down on our Woodstock courts as
every man ought to be, but where lies
the blame Was it not the effect of that
prayer that went up from Chester? l
have one word to say to class of men
who made that prayer, men who are in
good standing, in the churches, of this
town and others, who ought to be equally
interested in this matter and more es-
pecially those who have sons coming
up, l must say | fail to see the point
wherein you can feel justified in giving
your influence to sustain rum shop
connected with billiard room open at
late hours at night, so well calculated
to allure them into bad habits can
frame only one excuse for you, and
that very weak one, you might have
had the wool pulled over your eyes a
little by the manner in which that Pc
tition was circulated. | was told one of
our highest officials of the town was
seen circulating that document, man
who claims to be temperance man, but
L think what Grogan pleases to call
little weak in the knees, the same man
who one year ago as | am told, was de-
tailed to notify the landlords of the dan.
ger of pursuing such course; | have
very little confidence in such man.
and to those who so generously contrib
uted to the relief of Mr.. Cole, what
noble praiseworthy act, but your money
did not save him. / understand he has
abandoned the ship. | have only to say
to the ladies of this class, (if any l
hope if you should ever be so fortunate
Cor unfortunately as to get second hus-
bands they will be sober men. And now
for the subscription, don't lose any sleep,
Mr.. Editor, we are laying up few
dimes and if we succeed in closing some
of the rum shops it may enable others
to save few of that denomination to
pay theirs, and their elbows less liable
to become lame making change. Ladies
and gentlemen, trot out your subscrip-
ton paper and pay Farrell's and Ingra-
hams fines, don't use any partiality.

Presentation.

City Marshal J. ]. Carrillo was the
recipient of another fiattering compli-
ment from his friends last night.
This Tins it came in the shape of an
elegant gold plated badge. The affair
came off at Judge Thompson's office
where number of prominent citizens
were assembled, and Mr.. Carrillo be-
ing invited in, Senator Bush arose,
and with few appropriate remarks,
made the presentations. Heexpressed
the high esteem in which Mr.. Car
rtllo is held in Los Angeles, and be-
lieved that the confidence Of the peo-
pie, as shown in the late election, was
not lily bestowed. Mr.. Carrillo re-
sponded with few words expressive
of his gratitude to his friends who had
thus chosen to honor him and prom
ised to be faithful to his trust. The
badge was pinned to its place by the
Marshal's aged father, who was pres
ent and delivered some sound parental
advice suited to the OCCASION. Mr.. j.
J. Thomas then followed with a little
speech Of congratulation, after which
the company adjourned to convenient
quarters and drank to the health of all
concerned. The badge is a very tasty
and elegant piece of. workmanship.

Railroad Meeting.

The projected railroad under the
management OF the Centinela Land
Company seems to have awakened
the former project of the Truxton
landing road, which has been quietly
mapping for several months past. Yes
terday meeting of the prime movers
in the latter enterprise was held at the
United States Land Office. About
twenty gentlemen were present who
exhibited an active interest in the af-
fair, and the meeting proceeded in a
very business-like manner to inaugu-
rate stock company for the work
in hand. The name adopted was
"The Los Angeles Railroad Com
pany." Ex-Mayor j. r. Toberman
was chosen President, with e. Louis
Wolfskill Treasurer, j. w. Haverstick
Secretary and board of seven Direc-
tors; all of the officers being elected
temporarily. Twenty-eight thousand
dollars in stock was promised and a
donation of one hundred acres of land
lying at the shore end of the line was
Uldue W Ullc Couipduy by &htos huCoo.
The capital stock of the company was
fixed at $200,U00- a sum which was
deemed ample to construct the road
and build a wharf at the landing. 1t
has been practically demonstrated that
such wharf extended |, 400 feet would
reach q depth of twenty-one feet of
water at low tide, thus giving ample
accommodations to shipping. Com
mittees were appointed to canvass for
subscriptions to stock in the road, con
sisting of the following named gentle
men: Committee at large, Mr.. Weed
and John d. Young; for the Third
Ward, Los Angeles city, J. r. Tober-
man and Mr.. Hainesi for the Second
Ward, H.. d. Barrows and Louis
Wolfskill; for the First Ward, Gen
geral Bouton. It was decided to in
corporate the company at once, and
the necessary articles ready drafted
were submitted to the meeting. We
hope that the "Los Angeles Railroad
will prove success. 1t is in the
hands of men who have both the nee
essary means and enterprise to con-
struct it, and, being an entirely local
road devoted to the interests of Los
Angeles as,its name implies, thu re is
no doubt but that it will receive q
strong support from our citizens.

a Curious Incident.

AS the cars from one of our branch
depots were about to leave for the city
the other day the signal was given to
start and. the steam turned on with
full force, but the train refused to move
and curiosity was great for time to
find the cause. At last it was ascer-
tanned that bottle of the famous
housekeeper's cement had been broken
OH the track and stuck the wheels fast
to the rails. They We're at last sep
arated and the train departed, and on
it's arrival in town the rush to the
Dollar Store for bottle OF that cement
was tremendous. There are a few bot
ties left. de2O 3t"
