HONORS EASY.

Honors are easy with the Great Re-
public. We have had the honor OF en-
tertaining the Prince of Wales, Prince
NAPOLEON, Grand Duke ALEXIS, the
King of the Sandwich Islands and 9TH
er lesser lights of royal and princely
fame; and now we are notified that by
royal grace, His Majesty, the King
of Belgium, will condescend to pre-
sent his most gracious majesty before
the American people during the Gen.
tennial. What chance the toadies
are having at the beginning of a new
century of Democracy! 1t is a pity
that Dom PEDRO will not remain long
enough TO meet His Majesty but
that won'tdo;there would be trouble at
once. The Emperor and the King can
not officiate under the new regime.
Won't our Eastern parvenues have a
chance to display their pinchback
jewelry this season? The more one
thinks about 1t the more he Is inclined
to the belief that the Centennial year,
1875, will present the most stupen-
dous farce that the world ever saw. Is
royalty about to pay homage to De-
mocracy, or Is Republicanism about
to fawn at the feet of Monarchy? A
few weeks will show;-and therein
lies q lesson.

RAILROAD BUILDERS.

The San Diego Union having COM
pleted the Texas Pacific railroad, and
the Los Angeles Express having driv-
en- the last spike on the Los Angeles
and Independence railroad, those two
great builders of railroads, on paper,
have Joined forces and are now con-
structing first-class road from Ogden
through Cajon Pass to the Pacific
ocean. At or near San Bernardino
the road is TO fork or divde-one track
running to Jonesville wharf, eighteen
miles West of Los Angeles, and the
other touching tide-water on the peb-
bly, beach of San Diego bay. The par
ties on whom is to be conferred the
honor of putting up the small amount
of coin our contemporaries will require
to carry out this little enterprise are
Senator JONES and Messrs. FLOOD &
O'BRIEN. We hope these gentlemen
will raise no objections to the pro-
gramme. We should like to see it
carried out. The fact that Senator
JONES is losing money every day on
the only section of railroad he ever
built, together with that other fact
that he has not just now more money
than he knows what to do with, should
not influence him to disregard the task
his Los Angeles paper has mapped
out for him. Messrs. FLOOD & o. BRIEN
will not, we trust, remember that only
a short time ago the Express de-
nounced them as blots and blights on
the financial world, whose safes it
would be no more than justice to
break open by force and their money
taken from them by brute strength,
and not remembering this will fall
into line and hand over to the two
great railroad builders the funds nec-
essary to complete the road they now
have OH paper. Let US have the road
by all means.

Custer.

NEW YORK, May 1st.-The World's
Washington special says: AS is we'll
known General Custer gave impor.
tant testimony before the investlga-
ting committee relative to post ira
dership frauds and was subp9naed by
the House managers as witness in tine
impeachment trials. In obedience to
that response he came OH and has
been here for some time.
To-pay the President relieved him
from his command. When news
came to Gen. Sherman and Secretary
Taft both went to the President and
protested that it would not do. Gen.
Sherman went further and said Gus
ter was not only the best man but the
only man to lead the expedition now
fitting against the Indians. To all their
entreaties Grant turned a deaf ear
and said that if they could not find a
man to lead the expedition he would
find one; that this man Custer had
come here both as a witness and pros
ecutor in the Belknap matter to be-
smirch his administration and he pro-
posed to put stop to it.
BY the advice of Gen. Sherman and
Secretary Taft, Custer went to the
White House to call on the President,
although he said he didn't believe it
would be any good, for he had done
nothing but his duty, nolhing that he
had any apologies to make for so do
ing, nothing but what he would do
again under the same circumstances.
He had come here in obedience to law,
nevertheless in Difference to their
judgment he wen. to the White House
aud sat in the waiting room until the
Presidents calling hour was over,
although he repeatedly sent in his
card. Finally he wrote letter to
the President, an left, in which he
stated that he called for the purpose
of disabusing the Presidents mind, If
he had heard any statement that he
Custer had said or done anything
against the President personally.
1t is understood that the President
will publicly assign his reason for re-.
moving Custer. That he is here and
will not be back to his command to
take charge of the expedition now
getting ready to start against the In
dians.

SPECIAL TO THE DAILY HERALD
SAN FRANCISCO, May lst-3:30 p. M.
United States Surveyor-General Rol-
Inns rendered his opinion this after
noon in the case of the contested sur
vey of the Rancho San Vicente and
Santa Monica and Boca de Santa
Monica, in Los Angeles county. This
case has been on trial since the I'd of
July, 1875, and was only to-day
brought 10 conclusion SO far as the
Jurisdiction of the United States Sur
veyor-General is concerned. The
opinion deals only with the question
of the survey, and after reciting at
length the history of the survey of the
different ranches, touches upon the
validity and correctness of the same
and ends with the following recon-.
mendations:
First--That the survey of the Ran
cho San Vicente and Santa Monica as
originally made by G. H. Thompson,
United States Deputy Surveyor, be
approved, except so far as the same
should be modified by changing the
lines of the Boca de Santa Monica as
stated in the opinion.
Second-That the survey of the
Rancho Boca de Santa Monica be
modified so as to include certain par
GELS of land in the San Vicente tract.
The prayer of the Southern Pacific
Railroad, through B. B. Redding, their
land agent, and Clark Churchill, their
attorney, for a new survey of both
ranches is denied. The only change
recommended is the modification of
the boundaries of the Boca de Santa
Monica Rancho. The opinion accom-
panying the papers were Immediately
forwarded to Hon. S. S. Burdett,
Commissioner of the General Land
Office, Washington, for his action in
the matter. A. w. X.

Dear Sir-Having received great ben
eft from the use of PERUVIAN SYRUP, l
am willing to add my testimony to the
thousands of others constantly sounding
its praise. During the late war | was
in the army, and had the misfortune to
be taken prisoner, and was confined in
Salisbury and other southern prisons
several months, and became so much re-
duced in health and strength as to be a
mere skeleton of my former self. On
being released, l was fit subject for a
northern hospital, where remained two
months and then came home. My phys
ician recommended and procured for me
several bottles of PERUVIAN SYRUP,
which | continued to use for several
weeks, and found my health restored and
weight increased from ninety pounds to
one hundred and fifty, my usual weight,
and l have been in my usual good health
ever since and can cheerfully recon-
mend it in all cases of weakness and
debility of the system, whether rising
from an impure state of the blood, dys-
pepsia, or almost any other cause, believ-
ing it will in most cases give entire sat.
isfaction. Yours truly, GEO. S. BIxBY
