A man in Los Angeles who lost
three $40 gold pieces advertises for
them, and still we are in the 19th.-
World.
Down in San Diego county the pole
cats attack the bees. We have no.
ticed that those San Diego skunks do
not confine their attacks entirely to
their own county.
Levin & Co. have received a fine

some proper person.
Some unappreciative Anaheimers
have raised the cry of 'humbug"
against Professor Rice, the mind
reader, who is performing his wonders
in our sister city. We are surprised
at such scepticism, especially in the
confding town of Anaheim.
w. P. Mcintosh, Esq, of Carson,
Nevada, Superintendent of the Excel
sior Lumber and Flume Company of
the Sierras, and Vice. President of the
Carson Savings Bank, is stopping at
the st. Charles, in company with sew
eral friends.
Our sanctum was visited yesterday
by Messrs. Joe Faivre, w. P. Shafer
and J. Treet, of San Diego and Mr..
Meyer of Oregon. The party were
on their way to the rural shades of
San Diego, and we wish them bon
voyage, only regretting that they
could not make longer stay in our
city.
The Anaheim Gazette in comment
ing on the second number of the 1fdat
Wuve says that Judge Wiseman, the
editor, evidently spends his days with
Addison and his nights with Steele.
The Judge is justly indignant at this
imputation against him. He says
that if he spent his nights to steal as
much as those grog-guzzling hem
lifters, he'd go and join the peniten-
tiary.
Mr.. E. S. Glover, an artist of fine
abilities. is in our city and proposes to
prepare a chart giving a birds eye
view of Los Angeles from the hills to
the North of town. A finer subject
for an artists skill was never present.
ed, and we believe that Mr.. Glover
will do Justice to it. He has already
published similar charts of Denver,
Golden City and other picturesque
towns in Colorado.
The second attempt to get off the
barkentine Ella was so far successful
as that the vessel was moved Il dis
tance of thirty feet, when she again
stuck. A dispatch was sent for one OF
Goodall, Nelson & Co.'S steamers to
complete the task. Since writing the
above We learn that the attempt to
get the bark off by aid of the steamer
proved a failure. The future opera
tons have not yet been decided upon.

Of the twenty eight applicants for
teachers certificates, twenty-three
had withdrawn by yesterday evening,
and the five remaining will wage an
uncertain contest to-day. The exam
nations will be concluded this after
noon. Despite the heavy slaughter il
is conceded that the examinations
have been conducted on the fairest
principles throughout, and many COM
pliments have been paid Superinten-
dent Saxon for his uniformly consid-
crate and gentlemanly direction OF the
session.
On Saturday night at Turn-Verein
Hall Fourth of July benefit will be
given by amateurs. Among the
troupe are many we'll known and pop.
ular citizens. The great feature of the
occasion will be the "minstrels," in
which much interest is taken. We
think Dan Bryant will be outdone at
| the end as "Brother Bones" by Tom
Show. The performance will be of a
first-class character, and cannot fail to
give satisfaction. Universal patronage
of our citizens should be given.

when an adjournment was taken un'
til to-day. This morning Judge
