Col. PEEL. returned from San Ber-
nardino yesterday, having spent two
or three days in that city, looking
after the interest of the Los Angeles
and Independence Railroad. He re-
ports that many of the citizens of that
county feel that they have cause to
complain of the treatment they have
received from our county. But that
feeling is by no means extensive and
it is passing away rapidly. Many
prominent citizens are willing to take
an interest in the Inyo road now, and
a majority OF them will, he thinks,
soon be in favor of doing all they can
in aiding the enterprise: The spirit OF
rivalry or jealousy that may be linger-
ing in the minds OF some must have q
little time to shoulder out. He re-
ports that city in a healthy and pros
porous condition, with the signs of en-
terprise visible all around.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
Washington, January 20, 1875.
J.J. WARNER, ESQ. q.--Dedg Sir: Your
letter of the 10Th inst. and the HERALD
containing your letter upon the rail-
road has been received, from which l
learn that you take correct view of
the subject. The construction of a
road on or near the 32d parallel from
the Valley of the Mississippi to the
Pacific, regard as work of national
importance, and its Importance to
Southern California can scarcely be
over-estimated. / am convinced that
the only way to secure the construc-
ton of this line of road is by a Gov
ernment guarantee of interest on the
bonds of the company, which can be
done with entire safety and without
any possibility of loss. / am doing
all in my power to secure such aid to
the Texas Pacific Reilroad, and there
now seems to be fair prospect of
success. Yours truly,
S. o. HoUaHroN.

stx A. A. PROCTOR.
DIR. LUCKY, Superintendent of our
city schools yesterday received let
ter from Southern Illinois in which
the writer says that he has read sew
eral numbers of the Los Angeles
HERALD, and while highly pleased
with its descriptions Of the country he
yet cannot help wondering if they are
not too highly colored. On the same
day the Doctor also received another
letter from gentleman of Nashville,
Tennessee, who writes that he has
read the DAILY HERALD of January
1st, and is now more than ever anx-
ious to make Los Angeles his home.
The HERALD ism daily receipt of let
ters Of this character all written by
persons who have obtained their in
formation relative to Southern Cali
fOrnia from its columns. Many of
these letters, like the card of our friend
and ex-subseriber, Mr. PROCTOR, con-
tain fears that our descriptions of the
soil, climate and productions of Los
Angeles valley are overdrawn. From
person living In the. cold North
western States these doubts are to be
expected. A correct description of
this country offers picture SO In con-
trast with the realities of that in
which they live, that they are to be
pardoned for doubling what appears
so different from their immediate sur
roundings. With Mr.. PROCTOR the
case is different. He is here and has
seen and thought for himself. In what
and to what extent he Is disappointed
he does not inform us. He is the Sec
ond gentleman within the past nine
months who has notified us that he
was disappointed in the country. The
first followed his letter of dissatisfac-
tion with another acknowledging that
1t was himself more than the country
with which he was dissatisfied, and we
are confident our friend at Compton
will soon renew his subscription to
the HERALD as well as realize that
the mild climate and rich soil of Los
Angeles valley offer advantages not to
be found In country where one
must fight cold, heat and grasshop-
pers alternately the year round. On
the other hand hundreds Of men who
have come to Southern California on
the representations Of the HERALD
have called TO assure us that having
seen for themselves they found the

From MarysviIle.

MARYsvILLE, January 26th.-Capt.
Wright came i'm this afternoon from
Parks dam,and from him we obtained
the following information in regard to
the breaking of the same: A strong
north wind commenced blowing a
perfect gale OH Monday morning about
one O'clock and continued about forty
eight hours. The levee yielded to the
force of the elements at Ills O'Clock
this morning. AT the time of the
break the levee stood four feet above
the water. There were three houses
located on the levee, one at either end
and one in the middle. The wind was
of sufficient force to send the water
clear over the levec and on top of
these houses. Before the gale COM
menced there was a lot of tule and
broomcorn which had been drifted
around the embankment, and when
the breakers came the drift was thrown
clear over. .gz@..a
The break was caused by the action
of the wind on the water and is about
400 feet in extent, being located in the
West end ofthe levee. The levee runs
East and West and the water comes
against 1t from the North. There was
no water below the dam when the
break occurred, and it stood eighteen
feet deep above. There was no danger
of the levee except from the wind, az
the water was not high enough to
cause any injury, and was falling very
fast.
Parties living below the levee were
on the lookout and were notified OF
the break Immediately; consequently
no lives were lost, so far as we can
learn. sse

Tell-Tale Lips.

have observed that lips become
more or less contracted in the course
of years in proportion as they are ac-
cust0med to express good humor and
gem rosity, or peevishness and con-
tracted mind. Remark the effect
which a moment of ill-temper and
grudgingne-s has upon the lips, and
Judge what may 90 expected from an
habitual series of such movements.
Remark the reverse and make a SINH
lar judgment. The mouth is TIE
franKest part OF the face; it can't in
the least conceal its sensations We
can neither hide iIl-temner with IT,
nor good; we may affect what we
please, but affectat.on viii not help
US. In wrong cause it will only
make our observers resent the on
deavor to impose on them. The
mouth is the seat of one class of
emotions, as the eyes are of another;
or rather, it expresses the same
emotions, but in greater detail, and
with a more irrepressible tendency
to be in motion. 1T is the region of
smiles and dimples, and of trembling
tenderness; of a sharp sorrow, or a
full breathing joy, f candor, of re-
serve, of anxious care, or liberal
sympathy. The mouth out of It's
many sensibilities, may be fancied
throwing up one great expression
into the eye-as many lights in a
city reflect a broad lustre into the
heavens. Leigh Hunt.
