Interesting Land Decision.

Mr.. James, the Register Of the U. s.
Land Office for this district, yesterday
received letter from the Commission
er of the Land Office advising him
that the Secretary of the Interior had,
on the 14th ult., In the case of the
Western Pacific Railway Company VS..
Fl. E. Dillingham; ct al, decided that
the lands embraced in rejected private
grants, within railroad limits, are not
excepted thereby from the operations
of the railroad grants, but enure to
companies upon the rejection of the
claim, or upon being excluded from
the final survey of the same. The U.
s. Land Office officials here are ac-
cordingly directed to reject all applica-
tions for odd sections, which are with
in railroad limits and which were i'm
cluded within the claimed limits of
private grants at the same time the
line of the road was definitely located,
but which were afterwards excluded
from the approved survey, which ne
came subject to disposal by the final
rejection of the private claim. They
were also instructed to hold the even
sections within the granted limits of
the road at 50 30 per acre.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-06-19
Squirrels.

There Is no pest in California that
gives the farmer so much troutle and
none half so destructive to growing or
matured crops. 1t is safe to say that
the State is damaged over million Of
dollars each year by these little ami
mails. One man can exterminate
them on twenty acres Of land In one
day at cost of fifty cents to one dol.
lar. We have done this, and speak
what we know to be true. Take a
stick of phosphorus four or five inches
long, dissolve it In hot water, half a
gallon. Stir in corn meal until it Is
as thick as mush or dough; then stir
in one pint of molasses; mix it we'll;
put it in a bucket; hang the bucket on
your arm, and with l0ng-handled
spoon in your hand, go to each hole
and put small spoonful down in the
hole. No birds nor fowls can find 1T
when 1t is dropped in the squirrel hole.
Two days afterwards the atmosphere
will be somewhat offensive and the
buzzards may be attracted, but it is
soon over and everything is quiet for
q few weeks. But If the lands around
you are not treated in the same way,
the squirrels will soon be as thick as
ever. We have no doubt If whole
community would act in concert, that
these pests could all be destroyed in
one or two years, but no one man can
fight them off his place successfully
unless his neighbors all join.
b. l.. PEEL.
P. S.-Be careful in handling the
phophorus; 1t is deadly poison.

The Denim. SawtelIe Troupe.

Merced Theatre was well filled last
night to witness the touching melo-
drama of "Hunted Down." with Miss
Denim and Mr.. Sawtelle in the prnci-
pal roles. Every pathetic point of the
affecting play was brought out in bold
relief by the principal performers, and
the audience evinced their qualification
by hearty applause. In the married
Rake" the after piece, Miss Denim
and Mr.. Sawtelle displayed their tai
ent in that lively farce, and, as the
curtain dropped, the spectators were
in doubt which was the most admira-
bly, rendered, the miseries of Mary
Leigh or the funny troubles of Mr..
and Mrs. Flighty. This evening "Trip
Van Wrinkle" opens the performance,
with the farce of Jennie Lind as a wind
up, on the bills, and Mr.. Sawtelle
will personate the unfortunate, but
kind-hearted Dutchman. In this
speciality Mr.. Sawtelle has attained a
great reputation and OH his
representation of this pecu-
liar ideal of Irving, our theatre
goers will witness genuine
surprise. Though the plot is
entirely unreal and the denoument
impossible, yet the world is always
moved to tears either on reading Ir-
ving's history of Rips adventures or
on witnessing theatrical representa-
tion of it. Rip Van Wrinkle affords a
field for mastery acting and good
house will undoubtedly applaud Mr..
Sawtelle tonight. Or Miss Denim we
cannot say too much, her reputation
having been established in the most
critical cities In the world. Supported
as these artists are by good stock
company, our people are enjoying an
unusual theatrical season.

Perso al.

Concerning a gentleman and his
family now in this city, the Memphis
appeal of June 9th has the following:
"On last Thursday Colonel William
H. Stephens and his family left Jack
son for California, where he intends
permanently to reside. Colonel Ste
phens has made Memphis his home for
the last eli ght years, and has been en-
gagged in the practice of his profession,
the law, with eminent success. He
was member of the Constitutional
Convention which met in 1870, and
framed the present Constitution. He
was elected City Attorney for Mem
phis, with a salary of four thousand
dollars per annum, but soon resigned
the office. He has been, since the
war, an able and eloquent defender of
Democratic principles and men. He
was, before the war, q distinguished
member of the old Whig party and
one of its most honored and trusted
champions. He commanded a regi-
iment in the Confederate service so
long as his health would permit, and
he was then elected Circuit Judge. In
all these stations he realized public
expectations and conferred honor upon
the offices. A purer and better man
than William H. Stephens, or one
more worthy to be trusted, can seldom
be found. Although he had been a
true and tried Whig, he never objected
to the name Democrat since the war.
He was for principles, regardless of
mere names. The removal of such q
man is q loss to any community and
to any State. In addition to his other
good qualities, and crowning them all,
he was devotedly pious, christian
man. He was prominent member
of almost every Episcopal convention
in this State for many years, of which
church his father, Rev. Daniel Ste
phens, and his brother, Rev. Abednego
Stephens, were distinguished clergy
men. He took with him to California
a large and interesting family Of chill
dren-sons and daughters-and leaves
behind him in Tennessee host of rel
atives and trends. He has gone to
California, and we wish him the ut
most success and happiness In his new
home, however much we may regret
his departure. What will be- Tennes-
sees loss will be California's gain.

EDITOR HERALD:-I will endeavor,
In my feeble way, to write you small
article concerning our late examina-
tion at the
Los NIETOS COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE.
The examination commenced on
Monday morning, June IA, 1875. The
first classes were small and constitu-
ted chiefly of the little folks, we will
therefore say but little concerning
these, only that they did exceedingly
we'll, but for fear we may weary your
patience with this subject we will pass
to the highest classes at once.
THE HIGHEST CLASSES.
We will commence with the Geom-
etry. The Geometry contained but
two young ladies. When their class
was called forward they took their
seats, the teacher commenced with the
very first questions In the book and
examined them up as far as they had
been. They answered every question
correctly. Next came the Grammar
