These towns have been located with a
view to health, business capacity and scenic
beauty. and large numbers of them are rapidly
growing into public prominence. As an index
of their prosperity, it may be stated that the
new buildings erected in these towns during
the year 1871, cost Ore and three-fourtha
millions of dollars!

Farming in California,

A Farm in California, consisting
of 10000 acres, has just been let for five
years at an annual renta, of $4,000.
The farm is stocked with 1900 head
OF cattle, 100 horses, 80 mules, and l.
500 hogs, costing the lessee, with crops,
the sum Of S74,250. Heavy farming
that. But out there they have sheep
ranges of 100000 acres, with hocks
numbering from G0,000 to 100000
head, while there are farmers who
boast Of wheat crops amounting to
10000 and 10000 bushels. Cattle

interests are continually growing, both

scale which appears to characterize

with their high degree OF intellectual
culture and refinement, gave them a
ready passport into the best society o.
NJ, in which society Mrs. Brown
soon became-not of her own seeking
however--a recognized and respected
leader. If there were to be any pub
lie affairs in which the ladies were es
pecially interested it was Mrs. B..
that was invariably sought to do thc
necessary planning and have the gen
eral supervision Of the carrying out o
the same. And so everything, as be

of Myrtledale had gone along smooth

COL Yesterday the number Of little
knots Of people. with determined looks.
who were holding aside conferences par
ticulsrly confidential was very noticeable.
They were of such frequent occurrence
as to even cause comment, and finally
a venture was made, at the risk of i'm
pertinent meddlipS. TO ascertain the
cause, when it WAS found that the sub
ject Of reviving the organization of Col
Was under discussion. There are in the
city q set of men who do not care for
legal proceedings. They laugh ut the
idea Of being tried in court. They
have confeaerates enough to swear them
clear and juries are not always just. The
argument Is that these aesperadoes can
be reached in no other way SO readily,
eftectuaily and cheaply as through the
COL. The alleee that since the shooting
of citizens has been revived it will go
on. raising horror upon horror. unless
some means be devised TO check the rise
and flow o! the billow of crime now
while it is comparatively small and easily
STAYED. We cannot agree with the
necessity OF such proceedings on the paIt
of our citizens, yet one thing is sure:
there are certain persons in this COM
