THE HERALD takes pleasure in commend
ing to its readers La Croaica, the organ in
Southern California of the Spanish-speaking
population. The paper was established early
in 1872. At the start it was published once a
week, but owing to the liberal patronage be-
slowed upon 1t, its proprietor soon issued IL
semi-weekly, and considerably enlarged. 1t
has very large circulation, its columns are
always we'll filled with the latest news, and it
is ably edited. 1t circulates largely on the
Pacific Coast and in the adjacent territories. E.
Il. TEoDoLI, ,the proprietor, and Messrs e. F. de
Cells and PASTOR de CELLS, the editors, are
all worthy gentlemen. The paper is issued at
the HERALD Publishing Estab bishment.

DURING the year 1874, over three hundred
and fifty steamers and about one hundred
sailing vessels were anchored in the port of
Wilmington.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-01-01


Glancing over the record of 1874 we see that
every resident of the Pacific Coast must feel
proud of our progress within that period. Our
developments have been greater than are re-
corded of any other portion of the world.
Everywhere the spirit of advancement has
manifested ITSELF The population of the
State has increased at least 10000 within the
last twelve months, and the indications are
that the year 1875 will add at least 100000 to
the permanent population of California, Tie
tide of immigration has turned Westward In a
volume which increases in nlH1ber and
strength daily, and we may reasonably expect
that the growth Of twenty years will be
doubled within the half of decade. The
products of the State are as varied as they are
abundant. We have already become fhe
great wheat field of the world, and though we
have won this proud title not one-half of our
broad acres have yet felt the plowshare. With
4OO,OOO added to our population we shall ex-
port thousand bushels of wheat where we
now send off ten bushels. Our miaeral wealth
is also great. great beyond that OF any other
part ofthe world.

SELECTION OF STOCK.
In the possession and care of our do
nestle animals, we have need of wide
range of knowledge of these laws.
Much depends upon their proper
selection. and adaptation to the
purposes for which they are kept. The
successful farmer must have clear
conception of the objects to be attained,
and of the peculiar natural excellences
which best adapt each animal to its
purpose.
BREEDING.
In the breeding of stock, this critical
discernment of naturally essential
points is Indispensable. Not only
should we have clear perception in
detail of the peculiar combination OF
excellences which best adapt the ami
NAL TO given purpose, that we may
form correct ideal model of perfection,
but also that intuitive faculty, that
| gift for recognition and combination OF
excellences, which enables the skillful
breeder to reproduce the ideal model
in the living animal. Mans power
over his domestic animals, in shaping
their forms and determining many OF
their characteristics, when aided by q
thorough knowledge of natural laws, is
almost creative. BY this power, COM
bined with the necessary food and care,
the beautiful Short Horn, which
| sprang from common stock, has at
tanned the enthusiastically symmet-
rical proportions which we observe in
the best bred specimens of that race /;
| and in him we behold the facsimile OF
| the ideal model, which served as y
| guide to his breeders.
| The well bred race horse, and the
muscular draft horse, are other ex-
amples of this intelligent design. In
dividual excellences may come by
chance, but the production of a full
and perfect development which varies
in any considerable degree from the
original type, and fixed habit of re-
| production of it in the newly created
species, is the work only of intelligent,
persistent effort.

The GraVes- CiliU Duel.

General James Watson Webb is pro-
yoked by reference in the Evening Post
to Mr.. J. s. G. Abbott's account Of Jons-
than Cilly into retelling the story of the
Cilly-Graves duel. The essential fact il
his version is that Mr.. Cilly did not de-
cline General Webb's challenge given
because of severe comments upon his
course as editor of the Courier and Inqui-
rer) on the ground that Gen. Webb was
not gentleman, but on the ground that,
by the constitution, he was not respon
sible for words spoken in debate in Con.
gress. He produces q memorandum from
Mr.. Graves, setting forth that this was
the precise reply made by Mr.. Cilly, and
giving in detail Mr.. Cilly's statement
that he took no exceptions to the char
acter of General Webb personally. Ac-
cording to General Webb's account, Mr..
Graves then insisted that Mr.. Cilly
should put this in writing. Gen. Webb
protested, but, as he explains, Henry A.
Wise, of Virginia, and others encouraged
Mr.. Graves to persist in the demand
The result was Mr.. Cilly's refusal, the
challenge. the duel with rifles, (selectei
by Mr.. Cilly himself,) Mr.. Cilly's fall,
and an outburst of public indignation
that formed one of the potent forces il
a presidential campaign.
