Professor Denton.

We received a short call yesterday
from Prof. Denton, the eminent
writer and lecturer or geology and
natural history. He intends to COM
mence series of lectures here on the
fifteenth of this month, and our citi-
zens can look for something highly
Instructive and entertaining in them.
His success throughout the State has
been marked; and more recently at
Santa Barbara he has lectured to full
houses for he evenings in succession.
The Inder says: "There has been no
diminution of the crowd which,
throughout the course, has assembled
10 listen to his lectures here; and we
think, from all we hear, his audience
would be willing to attend so long as
he should be willing to entertain
them. The crowd has been so great
that many have been unable to obtain
seats, and it is suggested by those
who seem hardly able to get to the
hall early enough, that the crowd
commences to assemble in the after
noon. We need hardly say that those
who assemble to hear these discoufses
are among the most intelligent of the
people Of Santa Barbara. AS lee
furer, Prof Denton stands among the
first, and as student of geology his
fame is as broad as the continent.

the coast north and south OF San
GOrgonio Pass-the only natural

Lower California to Oreg gon;
showing also the largest and
richest mining region in the
world tributary to Los Angeles;
showing the proposed railroads
to the rich mines of Cerro Gordo
and to Salt Lake; also the thirty
fifth and thirty-second parallel
routes and their junction at AL
buquerque, as proposed by Col.
Scott. The names of the follow
ing important places in the coun-
ty are omitted from the map for
want of space: Anaheim, popu-
lation, 1,500; San Gabriel, 200;
El Monte, 100; Spadra, so; Gal
latin, 100; Santa Ana, so; West
minister, 80; Compton, so; San
Fernando, so; Florence, so; Tus-
tin City, so. These are each the
nucleus of a rich farming section.
1t is plain to be seen that Los
Angeles county is the represent
ative county of Southern Califor-
MIA, and the emporium of Los
Angeles county and Southern
California is Los Angeles City,
centrally located therein also
centrally located in the best val
ley on the Globe.
