The Prismoidal.

That bonanza struck by the Common
Council at its last session (the forfeit
ure of the East Los Angeles and San
Pedro street railroad franchise) seems
to be dwindling down to very small
proportions. The power to declare a
franchise forfeited is vested in court
Of law under the statutes of this State.
That Prismoidal nightmare is fast
driving the Common Council insane,
and they probably thought they were
the District Court Of the Seventeenth
Judicial District. In fact, they consti-
tuted themselves witnesses, jury,
Judge and Sheriff. Their evidence
was only what they thought
they knew, they rendered their
own verdict, entered judgment,
and ordered execution by the clerk.
The managing agent of the railroad
company informs US thatthe company
have taken care that no forfeiture
should occur on the part the company.
That, under their franchise, they have
a right to build the prismoidal road,
and intend to build it, unless a Court
decides that the franchise does not
admit prismoidal road. Why is this
attack waged by the Council against
one of the most important enterprises
of the city? The people interested in
using the road and owning property
along 1t, want a Prismoidal road. as 1t
costs them some $4,000 less than q
two-rail road. If they did not want it
they would not take the stock and the
road would not be built. Members of
the Council give as their only reason
that the railroad company have not
treated them with proper respect, in
not asking their permission to build a
Prismoidal road, and that If their per-
mission had been asked they would
have given it. The company bell eve
that the franchise fully authorizes
them to build the road and can see no
necessity for further action of the
Council. The public do not uphold or
justify the Council in any such action,
for they are attempting to do great
damage to an important interest of the
city in revenge for an imaginary
slight.

independence Day.

1t is ninety-nine years to-day since
the Declaration of Independence was
given to the world at Philadelphia.
The fathers of the nation builded more
wisely than they knew. At that time
1t required patriotism and genius to
to guide the ship of State; now, so well
established is the Republic, that it
only needs an honest pilot to hold the
helm. The genius which established
the United States amidst storms and
darkness has disappeared forever, and
it Is doubtful If we ever see its like
again. While the nation prospers,
the necessity for genius does not exist,
and we pray that no desperate emer-
gency may ever come requiring the
talent of FRANKLIN, the statesman
ship Of ah ADAMS, the integrity of q
JEFFERSON and the perfection of
WASHINGTON. In the present demor-
alization of politics we fear that the
nation would go down in darkness
and ruin ere we found such a COM
bination of virtues as the Revolu-
tionary Fathers possessed. 1t was the
rarest combination of genius and in
tegrity that the world has ever seen.
Let us celebrate to-day praying that
prosperity may continue to bless our
country, and that the God of Nations
may purify the nation morally and
politically.

The Circus Comb b ination.

The circus now here is combina-
tion of Wilson's Palace Amphitheatre
and Jackley's Vienna Circus. Either
of these shows singly should draw
crowd, and with the talent of both
combined, we can account for their
popularity. Last night sitting and
standing room was occupied, and the
performance would have done hon or
to Barnum, the great Snowman. Such
a number Of trained horses has never
been seen in Los Angeles, and will
never be seen again, as Barnum has
purchased five ofthe trained horses at
$4,000 each, to be delivered at the end
OF the season. The clowns, three in
number, are masters of the wit of the
ring, and one of them fires off his
squlbs in four languages, English,
Spanish, French and German. Cook,
the boy bareback rider, is equal to Jim
Robinson, and at the latters age will
be his superior. The athletes combine
the grace of Apollo with the power of
Hercules. The proprietors, employees
and managers are gentlemen, and Wis
itors are sure of polite treatment. To-
morrow there will be a matinee and
evening performance, to which all are
invited, to see the best riders, athletes
and horses in the world.

The Downey Post Office.

EDITOR HERALD:-The post office
at Downey City is one of the most
wretchedly managed In the country.
An immense amount of mail mater Is
sent here for distribution among the
entire Los Meteor cou ntry, but much
OF 1t never reaches Its destination.
Complaint after complaint is made,
and petitions have been sent to the
Congressman of the District, but moth
ing seems to have any effected on the
Postmaster. A specimen case of neg
lect Is that of one citizen-a perfectly
reliable man-who says he received
his weekly newspaper just ttOetue
times in nine months. Another re-
ceived a registered letter after its ly-
ing In the office for month, with the
excuse that the Postmaster was "toO
busy with his store duties to keep the
run of the Office" Lordly man! Too
busy for the cares of office. Time to
unload, we think, and if the people of
the Los Nietos country could have
their will the Postmaster would be
"unloaded" before he could wink his
eye. The complaints are universal and
the above are but specimens. A worse
case was that of man to whom a
check OF several hundred dollars was
sent from Los Angeles. This check,
through the culpable negligence of the
Downey Postmaster was delayed for
six weeks before it reached its destina-
finn fhirtaan loo oxvuv Eurf a y
facts are needless. The entire popula-
tion will sustain the statements of
your correspondent, and If govern
ment does not pay attention to the Pc
titions sent, there is certainly loose
screw somewhere. j.

Lindsell, Captain, and Ellis H. Dean,

ciOus facts were ferreted out, on being
confronted with which, Deane, the

ing the Captain with approaching him
with plans to destroy tie vessel, which
were finally deliberately carried out.
The Captain denies all the charges.
The Union was worth about 5000.

New YORK, July 3d.--The Times
to-day publishes the following: "Our
reporter has ascertained from the most

of Tilton will be to obtain an indict-
ment against Gen, Tracy for perjury,
on the grounds that Tilton, Moulton
and Woodruff distinctly stated to him
that the charge against Beecher was
adultery, while he swore On the wit
ness stand to the contrary. 1t is be-
lieved that proceedings will be taken
without delay"
Yesterday afternoon the Judge
handed in his opinion, conveying his
decision on d. d. Fields motion to
quash the indictments against VIM.
NJ. Tweed. He denies the motion, ex-
cept as regards two of them. which, it
was conceded, are superseded. He
