Jupiter Pluvius seems to have taken
matters in his own hands in Europe
within short time. He has broken up
the, fountains of the greut deep and
deldged moro than one country. France,
Hungary md Switzerland have been
visited, and many lives have been lost
and property destroyed. So great is the
distress in the valley of the Garopne that
contributions are solicited in this coun-
try for the relief of the sufferers These
watery visitations on the continent have
been supplemented by like manifesto
tions in England and Wales. A late
rain raised the streams in Deyonshire
and Oxford, and also Hereford and Mon
mouth Counties in the former country,
and while no lives. were lost, the de-
struction of property was of most seri-
GUS character. All the crops, but more
especially hay, hive been damaged
heavily. The same fall of water extended
into Wales along the banks of the Og-
more, County of Glamorgan, and the
people were almost beggared. All their
movable property was swept away. By
the breaking of reservoir thirteen lives
were lost at one place. Thousands of
acres of land are under water and will
not be productive again this season.

A PROSPEROUS SOUTHERN C1rY.-The
city of Atlanta, Ga, is considered the
most prosperous city in the South. The
Memphis (Tenn.) appeal accounts for
this on the ground that Atlanta has di-
versified labor and is not the mart for
cotton or any one agricultural product
to the exclusion of others. The secret of
Atlanta's universal prosperity was exem-
plifed at the celebration of the last
Fourth of July. After the Hon. A. II.
Stephens had concluded his eloquent
speech on that occasion, the immense
audience, escorted by the military, re-
paired to the spot selected for new cot
ton factory and steam mill company.
Ground was broken for the enterprise
amid much enthusiasm, and short
speeches were made by Mr.. Stephens
and other prominent citizens. 1t is n
practical way of celebrating indepen-
dence to innugurate self-independence.

EDITOR HERALD: / have received quite a
number of letters and papers from Los Ange-
les, and am highly pleased with the reports
in regard to your advancement in every way.
Some of your pictures look large, but hope
they are true. for when the public mind has
been excited beyond reality, like the pendu-
lum, it will swing back to the other extreme.
i have read the HERALD, Express, Star and
which speak in glowing terms OF Semi-Tropi-
cal California. Trumans book is well written
yes, may say too we'll written; not that he
does not tell facts but that their clothing are
too rich, and many who read them lose sight
of the time and toll which is making Los
Angeles county and her surroundings the
garden spot OF the world. Yes; l should Like
to pluck the golden orange from its native
bough, and in the shade of the lime and lem

ships floating to and fro on the " shimmering
see the garland of the North glittering in the
sunlight. Then could say, on my right
hand sleeps Eden in her emerald garb and on
my left the ragged peaks of the world beyond.
Indeed, this looks very much like reproving
the Major, so / will turn Pegasus loose and
take the world as 1t is, for there is no poetry
in a hoe-handle or jack-plane. There are
many who would leave Kansas at this time,
were IL not for the want of means. Two years
loss of crops has emptied our cash-box and
we are now praying that kind heaven will
smile prOpitious on our coming Spring; but
/ may be gone from beneath these smiles
for Westward l see the star of Bethlehem
hanging DER the golden shore. where energy
and life bring the harvest whether Heaven
smiles in showers or not. Heaven will par
don me for not believing that HE feeds the
young ravens when they cry" for mine have
chlrped from morn till night and then went
to bed without seeing any mama dropping
down from above.
/ fully expect to be in Los Angeles county
somewhere as soon as can arrange business
here and get off. There are quite number to
leave here for California OF my acquaintance,
whom / have recommended to go to your
county should / not be able to start at the
same time; and believing that your county
than any other part of California, shall rec
ommend Los Angeles as the hub.
With many regards for the kindness of d.

Gold Mountain.

A large specimen of gOld-bearing
quartz is on exhibition in the reading
room of the Pico House, from the fa-
nous Gold Mountain mine, in Bear
valley, San Bernardino county, con-
trolling interest in which is owned by
E. j. Baldwin, the San Francisco
mining millionaire. The specimen
shows plenty of free gold, and al
though it is selected chunk, the de-
velopements at the mine have shown
that there is plenty more of the same
sort. The company's new mill of
forty stamps has been running for
about ten days, and the first cleanup
will be made on Monday next. The
mine is literallya mountain of quartz,
from which the mineral-bearing rock
is quarried and run through the mill,
without the necessity of asserting.
Experiments on limited scale have
shown an average yield of $29 per
ton, but if the rock will pay but $40
per ton, the enormous quantity in
sight, the ease with which it is ex-
tracted and the low cost of milling
and mining which will not exceed
So so per ton all told, will make it enc
of the most valuable pieces of mining
property int he world and formida-
BILE rival of the Virginia City bo-
nanza. Mr.. Baldwin says that there
are plenty more mines of the same
sort in the district.

THE FARMER FEEDETH ALL.
BY cHAs. G. LELAND.


My lord rides through his palace gate,
My lady sweeps along in state;
The sage thinks long on many thing,
And the maiden muses. on marrying
The minstrel harpeth merrily,
The sailor plows the foaming sea;
The huntsman kills the good red deer.
And the soldier wars without e'en fear;
But fall to each whate'er befall,
The farmer, he must feed them all.
Smith hammereth cherry red the sword;
Priest preacheth pure the Holy Word;
Dame Alice worketh 'broidery well,
Clerk Richard tales of love can tell;
The tap wife sells her foaming beer,
Ean Fisher fisheth In the mere,
And courtiers ruffie, strut and shine,
While pages bring the Gascon wine;
But fall to each whateer befall,
The farmer, he must feed them all.
Man builds his castles fair and high
Wherever river runneth by,
Great cities rise in every land;
Great churches show the builders hand;
Great arches, monuments and towers,
Fair palaces and pleasing bowers;
Great work is done, be 1t here or there,
And well man wOrketh everywhere;
But work or rest, whate'er befall,
The farmer, he must feed them all.

1t is only within the past year that
Southern California has been adver-
tised abroad and the people of the
United States East of the Rocky
Mountains awakened to the knowl-
edge that such place is in existence.
Hitherto our section has beer consid-
| cred an unknown region, or at best
sandy stretch of desert, producing
only cactus and wild underground,
inhabited by swarthy Mexicans and
scorched by a Tartarian sun. The
energy more recently infused into the
hitherto easy-going city of Los Ange-
les, has caused our natural advantages
to be made known far and wide. Other
cities of the Southern coast have sent
out their bulletins with equal enter
prise to the world, and the result is
that Southern California, and in fact
the whole State is now the main OBJ
jective point in the Union for immi-
grafton. AS a proof of this PROPOSE
tion which we have advanced, we are
weekly in receipt of scores of letters,
from every part of the United States,
making inquiries concerning our city
and county and expressing general
desire to emigrate to our section. A
few of these letters, received during
the present week, we present to show
the prevailing spirit among the in
quirers.
