Postal.

NEW YORK, April Sth.-Twenty-
two prominent publishing firms of
New York, Boston, Springfield, Phila-
delphia, Pittsburg, and Cincinnati
have united in petition to Congress
calling attention to some features of
the postal bill before the Senate, and
expressing the opinion that the bill if
PASSED will prove embarrassing to the
pOstoffice department and inadequate
to the needs and desires of the people
at large. They therefore ask for re-
duction of the proposed rates and for
mer charge regardless ofdstances.
Attachment was granted by Judge
Barrett to-day in the Supreme Court
to Chambers, against property of the
New Orleans, Mobile a. Texas rail-
road company, on the suit of Louis A.
Won Hoffman and VIM. Martels of
New York for the payment of
coupons amounting to Sl2,640.

Our Financial Condition.

There never has been time in the
history of our city when our finances
were in so healthy and safe condition.
It is true there have been times when
money appeared to be circulating a
little more freely, and when securi-
ties Were not scrutinlzed so sharply
as now. This is but natural after the
fright caused by the failure of one of
our banks. Confidence is again being
restored, as the people get information
in regard to the true condition of our
financial affairs. They learn that
there is more money in the country
now than ever before, with prospects
ahead of greater prosperity than we
have ever known. The recent panic,
like storm which demolishes one or
two old oaks, but served to clear up
the atmosphere and leave the ele-
ments in healthy state. 1t is now
known that all our banking institu-
tions are in healthy condition, and
established upon a sound basis. The
old Farmers and Merchants bank,
which has been the standby of the
people from the beginning, is as solid
as Gibraltar, and always ready to ac-
commodate when the security is good.
But while it is ever ready to extend
favcEs Oh legitimate basis, there is
not, nor never has been, any disposi-
tion to venture into reckless or doubt
ful speculations. This is the true
sphere of q bank, and every man deal
ing with such an institution feels
security that is satisfying. The Los
Angeles County bank is working with
agood capital, under the management
of first-class business men. The Com
mercial bank is of recent date, but
starts off under favorable auspices,
with prospect Of accomplishing
much good. But outside of our banks
there are score of money lenders
ready to take any good thing that
may be presented. Take it all togeth-
er we are quite satisfied with our
financial condition.

Los Angeles daily herald., 1876-04-09

H. S. Ledyard was summoned be-
fore Justice Gray yesterday morning to
account for the Sl6,50O that F. P. F.
Temple charges him. with .embezzling.
Mr.. Temple was put OH the stand and
questioned In regard to the matter and
said Mr.. Ledyard never had authori-
ty to loan any money for the purpose
of carrying on the Wallapai mines,
and that he never knew it had been
done until after the closing of the
bank last November. Yet in his testi-
mony Mr.. Temple acknowledged that
he got deed from Ledyard for
those very smelling works of the Wal
lapai mines and claims it was given
to him without money and without
price, and just because Ledyard, being
an alien. could not get a patent for the
mines. This is very thin explana-
tion of crooked piece of business,
and soonAafter Mr.. Temple purchased
the balance of the business for $4,000.
Yet he did not know any of
the time how Ledyard got a deed
worth $l2,500 but takes it himself and
only says thank you" We don't
possess any sympathy for Ledyard &
Co. but for justice sake do not like to
see them carry off all the guilt of this
huge piece of swindling. The case will
be continued at 10A. NJ.
A friend informs us that he took a
drive over the Rosecranz tract South
of the city yesterday and passed
through the new squatter settlement.
He found the squatters quite in earn
est in their determination to hold on.
One valiant freeholder was marching
over quarter section with double
barrelled shot gun holding possession
while his pard went for lum Der. He
threatened destruction to any one
who dared to dispute his righteous
claim, and 10 the intruder came and
there promised to be a conflict blood
ier than any of Scott's battles in Mex
leo, or FitZ John Porter's in Virginia,
when the intruders uddenly decamped
but is unable to leave Chicago at pres
and made better time to Los Angeles
than was made by any hero from the
classic field of Bull Run.
The Veterans of the Mexican War
met yesterday with Gen. Stoneman,
the President in the chair. Various
communications from the several Vet
eran societies of different States were
read. 1t was definitely settled that
the Association will visit the Centen-
nial If they obtain pass. From a
letter received from Mr.. Alex. Kanady
there appears no doubt but free passes
will be extended to the members for
their Eastern trip. Letters from sew
eral congressman pledged their assist
ance and support of the pension bill at
this session. Thirteen new members
were added to the Association.
Mr.. G. w. Stearns, a merchant of
Salt River, Arizona, is at the Lafay-
cite.

East Los Angeles.

East Los Angeles is getting to be
the most attractive and pleasant place
in all our surroundings. No one can
duly appreciate the beauty of the plat
upon which that suburban town is
built until they cross the river and
rise upon the level on the other side.
The soil Is neither sand nor adobe, but
the richest loam; consequently there
will never be mud nor dust to disturb
the inhabitants. All shrubbery and
vegetables planted upon it grow like
magic, and every home will soon be
surrounded with evergreens and beau
tiful flora. The growth of the town,
too, is one of the most astonishing
things we have witnessed. Two years
ago 1t was a smooth plain; to-day
there are hundreds Of dwellings, some
Of them built in the most tasteful
Los Angeles daily herald., 1876-04-09

style of architecture, and still they
are building. The sound of the ham,
mer and saw greets you from every
quarter. The enterprising proprietor,
Mr.. H. M. Johnston, has laid pipes
from the main reservoir of the city
and taken water to every part of the
town. He has also bridged the river
and constructed and stocked street
railroad by which the inhabitants of
East Los Angeles can reach the heart
of the city in eight minutes. Take it
altogether it is just about the incest
and most convenient place to live, in
the bounds of the corporation.
