Francisco Friday, June Goth.
The case of Constable Bryant comes
up on Friday next in the County
Court.
The stock of the Cooperative Nur-
sery and Fruit Company is nearly all
taken.
Over $500 has been collected by the
Canvassing Committee for the Fourth
of July celebration.
The Thirty-eights propose to air
their new uniforms in tOrch-light
procession next Saturday evening.
The Guards keep up their tri-weekly
drills with an occasional street parade
ut night in preparation for the Fourth.
Our pioneer merchant, l.. Morris,
who left here some six weeks since,
will arrive in Berlin, Germany, to-
morrow.
The French Benevolent Society will
give picnic in the Arroyo Seco next
Sunday. A very pleasant time is in
anticipation.
An order for several barrels of Cuca-
mongo wines and brandies was re-
ceived yesterday by one of our firms,
from druggist in Michigan.
One hundred and nineteen cases Of
honey were received at the depot for
export yesterday. The honey trade of
this county is every day coming into
more prominence.
The case of Meyer VS.. Rath was
tried in the District Court yesterday,
and submitted to the jury. In the
case of Ross vs.. Ross, motion to
strike out part of the answer was
denied.
The case of Cayatalo Euarte against
Cirrility Greenway, involving the
title to piece of land near the Mis-
sion, was on trial in the L. S. Land
Office yesterday. 1t will doubtless be
concluded to-day.
In another place will be found an
advertisement of the excursion to
San Fernando next Sunday. Ourpeo-
pie need little urging to induce them
to take advantage of such opportuni-
ties, and we doubt not that San Fer
nando will be taken by storm by our
city excursionists Sunday.
Tuttle & Lee, who have rented the
large and well-furnished photograph
gallery of Mr.. V. Wolfenstein, are
turning out some of the finest photo
graphs to be found in the country.
Their work is finished in the highest
style of the art, and warranted to give
satisfaction to every reasonable custo-
mer. All work promptly done and
terms reasonable. Stf
A carriage coming out OF the stable
near the Pico House yesterday came
in collision with the hind wheels OF a
farmers wagon standing there and
completely upset it. The wagon con-
tanned large box of eggs and they
were dumped out upon the street and
badly marred; in fact, they went to
pot rather prematurely. No other
damage was done to the farmers prop
erty.
The case of Dolores Ruez on
charge of grand larceny was on trial
in the County Court yesterday.
When nearly concluded, one of the
Jurors made it known that he was fa-
miliar with the case beforehand, and
thus invalidated the trial. The coun-
sci had failed to put the usual ques-
tions to him before admitting him to
the jury, and through this oversight
the whole days work of the Court
was set at naught.
The Committees of the Fourth of
July celebration met at the Court
House last night and transacted some
business relative to the matter in
hand. A communication from Mr..
Ross was received accepting the APP
pointment as Marshal of the day, and
one from the Thirty-eight's signify
ing their intention to participate in
the celebration. The Canvassing
Committee reported $40 collected,
and some amounts still in the hands
of members of the Committee not yet
returned. The Executive Committee
will meet next Friday evening at the
usual place.
La EsperanZa, at No. los Main
street, is one of the largest and best
appointed stores in Southern Califor-
MIA. A full line of groceries, imported
direct from the East and Europe, to-
gether with complete stock of pro-
visions, is kept constantly on hand
and sold at bottom prices. Country
produce bought, and the highest price
allowed. This house is too well known
to require any further commentator
from us; we. can only advise our
friends to visit the store and. see for
themselves what excellent induce
ments are offered to customers by way
of fine goods and low prices. IT'S"
1t was q dapper little drug-clerk.
He got a fine suit of clothes from one
of our tailors on credit, with friend
for security, and then he packed up
his trunk like the Arabs and as silently
stole away. He left a little deficit of
forty dollars, and the accommodating
friend, assisted by the tailor, took in
terest enough in the matter to follow
the young gentleman up. He was APP
pretended in San Buenaventura and
brought back to this city, when he
disgOrged thirty-nine of the forty dol
lars due, gave up the suit, went to the
lookup besides, and altogether came
out badly worsted. Remember what
DR.. franklin says, young man.
Mr.. Paul Sainsevain of Old San
Bernardino, formerly of Cucamongo,
on his way to San Francisco on BUSH
ness, was in the city yesterday and
favored us with call. Mr.. S. is one
of the most successful viniculturists in
the State. His grape crop this year
promises more than an average yield,
and he thinks the yield throughout
the valley will be fully up to the aver
age. The hay and barley crops have
been grand success; the corn crop
looks well, and there is promise of a
good fruit yield. The wheat crop is
injured with rust somewhat, and the
impression is that the yield will fall
twenty or twenty five per cent. below
the usual good crop.
