that would result for the people to unite
end elect Tilden and Hendricks; discoursed at
length upon the refusal of the Republican party
at Cincinnati TO accept Brstow, because he was
sincere in his advocacy Of reform etc, and sd-
vised his hearers to vote, both the National and
State had TO rid themselves Of the corrupt gov

Human Mater.

There is no better place than the
postofffce to study human nature in
all its phases. There is the individ-
ual who gets letter about once in six
months, but who always struggles to
be first at the window, and who re-
CARDS his solitary letter as a natural
curiosity, turning it over and over
viewing it from an up hill and down
hill standpoint, as if astonished that
he should get one at all; the man
from the country who enquiries for all
the folks at his place; the spruce
clerk who gets a dozen letters for
his employer, and looks as wise as if
they were all intended for himself;
the indignant specimen who wonders
why the expected letter hasn't come,
and who holds an earnest cOlloquy
with the clerk as to the probable cause
of its detention; the bashful young
man, with faint traces of down on his
chin, who expects letter from his
sweeth cart, and who retires in confus-
ion; the big man who treads on his
neighbours corns; the seedy customer
who gets bill for washing, and tries
to make one think it's draft; and
the booty who waits on the sidewalk
to see who goes in and who comes out,
are the persons we see daily at the
postoffice. Reader, you will watch
the postoffice any day about mail
time, you will see the individuals
thus briefly described The clerks
think highly of the young man from
the country who inquiries for the
whole neighborhood, aud only second
to him is the indignant Individual
who fails TO get the letter that "he
knows was mailed, day before yestef-
day. These gentlemen are very pop
ular, very.--Erchon0e.

[ From the Gazette.l

Preparations for the calico ball are
being made, and we can safely assert
that it will be the affair of the season.
The wool clip from the San Joaquin
Rancho this year will be about 450
bales.
Messrs. Halberstadt 81 Co. made
large sale of lumber to the Cerritos
ranch yesterday.
On Mr.. Pierce's farm. North of Ana
helm, may be seen one of the finest
wheat crops ever raised in this valley.
1t is a pity that the finest clip of
wool ever sent from this valley should
bring the lowest price ever known, but
the sheep owners find, to their sorrow
that such is the state of the market.

(Fro n the Outlook of the 5th.I


What was an open space around the
Outlook office, five months ago, is
now occupied by over twenty substan-
tial houses.
The oldest inhabitant has never
seen more luxuriant grasses than
chose which now carpet the hills and
plains around Santa Monica.
So far the Santa Monica Land Com
pany have sold about 1000 town 10 s,
and over 80 five-acre "Villa Farm"
tracts of land,
The weather at present is most de-
lightful-neither hot or cold. The
murcury during the past week has
ranged from 80 to 73 degrees.
Business on the railroad from santa
Monica to Los Angeles has gradually
increased ever since the first train
passed over the track.
Within the past few months, two
churches Methodist and Presbyterian
have been built in Santa Monica.
Two others-Episcopa and Catholic
are talked of.
No locality is more healthy than
five deaths since the town was estab-
lished. Two lost their lives by acci-
dent, one came here an Invalid, and
the other two were twin children, who
died few hours after birth.
We are creditably informed this all
the ships of the new line, belonging
to the "Panama Transit Company"
will touch regularly at Santa Moni-
ca, both ways. Two ships are now on
their way around Cape Horn, for the
line between San Francisco and Pana-
ma.
Santa Monica, unlike most small
towns, has for the past six months en-
loved metropolitan advantages, as re-
CARDS its mail facilities. The railroad
Company have been especially accom-
modating in securing to our citizens
the benefits of daily mail.
A census taken the other day in
Santa Monica shows that there are
between 500 and 900 inhabitants.
There are 1l6 school children betwe Ell
the ages of five and eighteen. The
Chinese number l6-fourteen men and
two women; gentlemen of color, three.
Messrs. o. H. Lee, S. Sturges. B.
Sturges and Il. ID. Sturges, capitalists,
largely interested in Chicago elevators
spent several days here last week.
These gentlemen, after general in
spection of the locality, pronounced
Santa Monica far ahead of any of the
Atlantic Summer resorts, insofar as
natural advantages are concerned.
Samuel G. Hough, of this place, re-
ceived letter yesterday from w w.
Walby, ex- Mayor, and "A leading bank
er of Adrian, Michigan, who is now in
Jacksonville, Florida. After compar-
ing notes upon hat popular resort and
southern California, Mr.. ". decides
in favor of the latter, AMI writes that
he will start for this section in a short
time, with the intention of purchas-
ing property aad locatidg permanent
ly.
The facilities for supplying Santa
Monica with water will be very COM
plete when finished. Two large reser-
voirs holding at least one million gall
Ions of water and supplied by excel
lent springs, have been constructed.
A large main pipe already conveys the
water into town, and branch pipe
has been laid through the length of
one street. The pipes have been or
dered, and as soon as they arrive, 'ya-
ter will be conducted upon the prem
ises of all who wish it. There are also
number of wells, which furnish a
large supply of water.
