The California Immigrant Union.

The report of the operations during
the year 1874 Of the Immigrant Union
will be a favorable one, although its
operations were seriously curtailed by
the failure to secure an appropriation
from the State. The California Re
porter, just received, says:
The business has been conducted
with commendable energy by the Cen
eral Agent, w. II. Martin, who has
succeeded in disseminating n wonder
full amount of information concerning
our resources, and the advantages
which California offers to men not
afraid to labor. At the office of the
Union, California street, just below
Kearney, the inquirer will always
meet cordial welcome, and every fa-
cility afforded to aid in his selection
of such a location as his means or in
clination may prompt. Largely by
the influence of the Union, and its fa-
cilities for sending information to
every portion of our coast, the recent
subdivision and sale of the Lompoc
Rancho was effected; and it is now
engaged in similar enterprise in
connection with the Centinela and
Sausal Redondo Ranches, six miles
west of Los Angeles, by which $4,000
acres of land will be cut up into small
farms, and placed at prices easily COM
passen by men of small means. The
first auction sale of property will take
place on the 18th Of February, 1875.

The soil is an exceedingly fertile loan, and
is, without exception, the richest and most
productive in southern California. Its vicin-

SAN FERNANDO, Jan. 4th.

EDITOR HERALD: Our prospecting
for cinnabar in this locality has result
ed in the discovery of an exceedingly
rich deposit of silver bearing rock
within twenty-five miles of San Fer
nando. The ledge runs northeast by
southwest, and shows croppings in
that direction some 5000 feet, while
it measures l 200 feet in width. From
tests made to-day, by smelling in an
ordinary erucible, quite a large guam
tity of pure silver was obtained.
Some persons here of experience be-
lieve the ore will assay $500 per ton;
others have placed it at $1,000. Moth
ing accurate can be given until an
assay of the ore is made. You may
expect to hear of something startling
then.
