Fitch on Santa Monica.

A letter to the Los Angeles Er.
press. describing the trip down
from San Francisco on the steam
er Senator to Santa Monica, has
the following paragraph on the
Hon. Tom Fitch, who was a pas.
senger:
The Hon. Tom Fitch sometimes
made himself the center of an in
teresting crowd. His Outgivings
as to the future of Santa Monica
were rose cOlored in the extreme.
10 a doubtful inquirer he an
n0unced that there would be more
than 1900 inhabitants in Santa
Monica inside of a year. Of an
other, who seemed to think his
pamphlet calculated to injure Los
Angeles, he triumphantly de-
nIanded to have a single passage
inimicai to our city pointed out.
That person having undertaken
to do SO by an incorrect quotation
OF the passage respecting Los An
geles as a commercial city the
Hon. Tom corrected him and gave
the true reading of the passage.
He had said, in substance, that
Los Angeles, more nearly than
any other city in Southern Cali
fOrDia, had flied the requisites of
being the commercial emporium
of our section; but owing to hav-
ing such an imperfect port as San
Pedro, she had failed. With Santa
Monica fairly under way the Or
ange City would undoubtedly at
tain the coveted eminence. Mr..
Fitch announced that there would
be a dozen Wharves at Santa Mo-
MICA before twelve months have
rolled around, and privately ex-
pressed his intention to build five
dwellings himself on the Com
ing City" before Spring. He al
so asserted that gigantic smelling
works would be erected at Santa
Monica to reduce the Panamint
and IGyO county ores, it being
the nearest point at which coal
and ore could be brought together.
In fact, beautiful as are the sun
sets whose glOries are daily re-
f1ected on the Santa Monica moan
tains. they are nothing in ardent
coIOcing and rOse-cOlOred play of
fancy pregnant with fact, to the
visions in which Hon. Tom in
dulged apprOpos of the darling
bantling city, while the Senator
was peacefully gliding over the
smooth and CLASSY sea which al
ways delights the tourist below
Point Conception.

NEW YORK.
The Crops I'm England.


NEW YORK, July 2O.-The BotL-
tetin. referring to European crop
indications, says. upon the
whole, the weather for the past
three or four weeks has been de-
cidedly unfavorable to crops over
a very large area of Europe, COW
ering most important grain ex-
porting districts, and the injury
sustained has been sufficient to
modify very materially the antici-
pations of the yield entertained a
month ago. 1t is this change in
in the European harvest that has
been steadily strengthening the
English and continental markets.
Results have been seen at New
York, in the extraordinary de-
mand for wheat and the equally
extraordinary advance in prices"

THOSE sprightly and amiable
gentlemen who run the San DieQo
WorIG must have a high old proof
reader. In their issue of July 10Th,
in copying an article from the
SENTINEL, they have done US in
finite injury. The article alluded
to is of delicate nature, and it is
cruel for any typo to spoil it. IL
the second paragraph they sub
stitute 40 for 80 years, which
makes a great difference and may
make mischief, as we did not pro-
pose to correspond with 40. In
the third paragraph they make
it worse still. Where we used
the very important words, NO
sECTARIAN by transposition of
letters they make it son sectarian,"
which completely destroys the
sense. We hope our friends of
the World, will make the correc-
tion and not cause us to appear
spooney in such delicate mat
ter.

Concerning the Mountain Mead
OVys Massacre--Terrlble Revela-
ton.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 21.-Sen-
atOr Booth addressed a large
meeting of Independents last
night at Union Hall. He made
but passing reference to charges
against Bidwell, devoting most of
his time to holding mp the PeO-
pies party at the present junction
Of political affairs, as the only
hope Of good government.
The synopsis of the statement
of John d. Lee, concerning the
Mountain Meadow Massacre is
received. He gives a concise
statement and facts concerning
the massacre, and gives names,
dates ard places. His statement
fully exposing all classes of men
connected with the outrage, and
fixing the crime on Isaac G..
Haight, John NJ. Higbee and
others, of killing men, women
and children, surpasses in horror
all that has ever been written
concerning the massacre, and
shows it more terribly atrocious
and bloody than the most vivid
inauguration can conceive. His
statement eXcuIpateS Brigham

A RICH STRIKE.-The San Der.

Item: Generally when we hear
of rich strikes, it is in the gold or

on the tunnel at CajOn Pass were

came across a deposit of honey.

TO find no bottom. Thew got a
longer pole, some twenty feet in
length, and were unable TO touch

drawing the pole the honey began
to run out, and soon tubs, buckets.

still it flowed. Some parties came
IN town and loaded up with bar

Of powder and blew off a portion
OF the rock, which disclosed tons
upon tons of honey. Our infor-
mant states that after exploring it
from below to where the bees
were found to enter, it was found
to be about one.fourth of mile.
and it is his opinion that the
whole cavity is filed with honey.
He estimates over 100 tons in

would not be an unfair estimate.
This immense deposit cannot be

4 TREE PLANTING ASSOCIATION.
We find in late number Of the st.
Paul Pioneer Press call for q meeting
in that city on the nth Of January, of all
persons interested in promoting forest
culture, for the purpose of forming a
State Tree Planters Association. This,
it strikes us, is q move in the right direc-
ton, and ono that Dakota can initiate
with prospect of reaping great benefit
from its deliberations. The formation of
n Territorial association for the purpose
of encouraging the growth Of timber,
with auxiliary societies in each county,
would unqncstiouabiy be Of great adyan-
tage in awakening on interest in this
profitable and important branch Of hus
bandry.

SHOWING THEIR TEETH.

1t is frequently asserted by the north
crn democrats, and the northern demo-
cratic press that their late misguided
southern allies were completely recon
structed, and in all sincerity accepted
Tie situation. That they would no. at
tempt to interfere with any constitutional
provision or legislation which has been
necessary to secure to the government
tic results gained by s,,bduing the re-
bells. In fact that cN-rebels acknowl-
edged the lost cause as remarkably lost,
and were satisfied to suffer the conse-
qucnces of their defeat and not ask remu-
ncration or indemnity in any form fol
losses consequent upon their trcasonable
action. 1t therefore occasioned consid
cradle surprise when Senator Mcrrimon
Of North Carolina, introduced, q week
ago today, bill to repeal section 4716,
Of the revised statutes. This section
provides that, mo money on account Of
pensions shall be paid to any person OF
to the widow, children or heirs Of any
deceased person who, in any manner
voluntarily engaged in or aided or abet.

it can readily be inferred that democratic
supremacy means government pensions
for rebel soldiers. In other words, the
convicted criminal asks compensation
for the injuries received while engaged
in committing the crime.

be relieved for several months past,
and seems to feel right comfortable
in being home again and well out of
Uncle Sans Indian service.
Soon after the treaty failure at Red
Cloud 5000 or 5000 of the Indians
belonging to Red Cloud left for the
Powder river country and up to the
time of the dcctor's departure had
not returned. The number Of Indians
at the agency at this time is about
S,000.7
The onlytronblc to be apprehended,
the doctor thinks, is in the danger Of
getting out of supplies for the subsis-
tencc of the Indians. The DOCTORS
requistions for the current fiscal year
we've reduced about one third, and the
consequence is ,!:at there are only
sufficient provisions Gu hand to feed
the Indians to about the last Of Feb
ruary, which would leave four months
unprovided for. Congress, however,
will probably take some action in the
matter. Otherwise the Indians will
goAto raiding and stealing. The,trea-
ty meeting, calling together about
z eco Indians, which meeting con.
tinued- for about SIX weeks. made
heavy drafts upon the commissarY de;
part1hent Of the agency ar1dsadds to
its present embarrassment.
There is no disposition among the
Indians to engage in hostilities, and
the doctor does not apprehend- that
any complication can arise in con.
nection with the Black Hills matte.
that will lead TO serious trouble. AL
that is needed TO keep the Indians
generally quiet, he thinks, is food ane
clothing.
Parties from the Black Hills fre
quently arrive at the agency bringin,
tangible evidence Of the auriferou
wealth Of that region, and the doctor
lis fully persuaded now Of the exist
ence Of gold there in quantities suf
ficiently large to promise pro6tabl'
mining. He thinks there are now a
least three hundred miners in tin
hills.
