THE casual visitor to Los Ange-
les to-day pronounces it the live
Hest city in the State after San
Francisco, which is lively now only
because it is large. Yet We all know
1t is dull here just now and the rea-
son is not far to seek. Los Angeles
is, after all, a distinctively agricul-
tural section, whatever may come
of commerce and manufactures, in
time. The farmers are too busy with
their crops to come TO the town.
The unexpected rains have in
volved a degree of labor and fixity
of residence rare in Southern Cali
fornia. This will, of course,change
in a few weeks; but, until the ag'
ricultural Rubicon has been passed,
dullness is thing to be looked for.
In addition, we are now expert
encing the full measure of the
drouth of last year. This time
next year a magical change will be
wrought, and we shall be rejoic-
ing in the plenty of the present sea :
sou.

OF course, in tbciI nominations
for delegates to the Constitutional
Convention, some regard should be
had for the Southern end of the
county by the Democratic County
Convention. That section is enti-
tied to one mem Der. We hear the
name of Judge Dick Esgan, of San
Juan Cspistrano, very frequently
mentioned for the position. The
Judge is a popular and well-poised
citizen and would make an honest
and reliable representative. Ex-
Supervisor Sturgeon ard his sue
cessor, Mr.. OFT, are also favorably
mentioned.

THE San Jose non-pariizan Con-
vention which assemblies on the
3Oth inst, would do very neat
thing, and one which would be APP
preciated in Southern California,
if they would nominate either Gen.
Volney L. Howard or Gen. George
SLOVENIAN as the representative of
the Democracy, and Col. Ayers, as
the representative of the non-par-
tizans, of Los Angeles county, for
delegates at large to the Constitu-
tional Convention from the Fourth
district. AS we are denied our
proper representation in that body
it should be willing to make us the
amende honorable by giving us
more than our share of the nomin-
atoms.

ton, we yet condemn as unfair,
uncalled for and revolutionary the
measure of the Democratic House
of Representatives to investigate a
part only of the facts pertaining to
the Presidential electors, and con-
slider that all efforts to reopen o
question of such magnitude after it
has once been lawfully and, as we
believe, justly closed, are detri-
mental to prosperity, perilous
to the peace of the country, and de-
serving of the apprehension of all
good citizens.
Third-That while we deplore the
opposition of portion OF the South
to the efforts of the administration
to give equal rights and privileges
to all citizens Of the whole country,
we do recognize the patriotic ac-
ton and devotion of those In that
| section who now stand firm for the
Union and the perpetuity of good
government.

The Laboratory Of the System.

The stomach is the laboratory Of the
system, in which certain mysterious pro
cesses are constantly going on. These re-
suit in the production Of that wonderful
vivifying agent the blood, which in state
of health rushes laden with the elements
of vitality to the remotest parts of the sys-
tenn. But when the stomach is semi-par-
alyzed by dyspepsia, blood manufacture is
carried on imperfectly, the circulation
grows thin and sluggish, and the system
suffers in consequence. Moreover, indi
gestion reacts upon the liver and bowels
rendering the first sluggish and the latter
constipated The brain also suffers by
sympathy, and sick headaches, sleepless-
ness and nervous symptoms are engen
dered. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters re-
forms this state of things, gives permanent
tone and regularity to the stomach and its
associate organs, the bowels and liver, and
ensures complete nourishment and in
creased vigor Of the system. 1t is the
most popular as well as the most efficient
anti-dyspeptic and tonic in America.

Smut in Corn.

We hear that there is a great deal
Of smut in corn this year, much more
than usual, and that it is of a very
poisonous nature. We are informed
that Geo. Scherer. of Sigel, has lost
five head of cattle, from the effect of
feeding on smutty corn. Mr.. Joseph
Schnoberich,of Cottonwood, also lost
three head in one day. Mr.. SCHNEIDER.
ich says that he turned his cattle into
the field in the morning apparently in
good health, but after they had been
feeding in the corn field awhile he nos
ticed that a young steer was acting
rather strangely and he at once drove
him back to the yard. Soon after a
second and a third were taken the
same way, when he drove the whole
herd from the field. The cattle after
showing symptoms of illness would
foam at the mouth and stagger about
in apparent great pain for an hour or
so, when they would lay down and
soon after expire. Mr.. Schnoberich,
who is a practical butcher, says that
he has thoroughly investigated the
matter and that he is convinced that
it was black smut that killed his cattle.
He says that they will feed on smutty
corn in preference to any other, and
that he has cut down and burned all
his corn-stalks. We also hear of several
other parties in this vicinity that have
lost cattle in the same manner as
Messrs. Scherer and Schnoberich.

TO TEA CHEERS,

/ would like to offer a few sugges-
tions relative to at achers' Assoc iation.
In order that we as teachers may be-
come more efficient in our work. it.
seems to me a subject Of great import
ance that there should be established
somewhere in the central part of the
county an ssociation, where teachers
can meet and exchange ideas, compare
views, and bring up such matters as
will aid us in our school duties. 1t
seems to me this might be made a pow
erful auxiliary to the edifcation Of the
cause in which we are engaged. AS
teachers let us keep our index finger
continually pointing at Excelsior,
which enables us to discern the way
we can arrive at a higher degree Of
perfe ction, and to discover and erase
our defects. We are too truthful to
deny, and not afraid to admit, that
there is room for improvement.
The real motives of our system is
not Objectionable, could it work up the
raw material fast enough to supply the
demand; but as long. as the deficiency
is filled with unqualified teachers, so
long will there be clog in the progress
to success.
If there would be devised more rig
id theory, by which to test the natural
ability of teachers, the benefit would
not be small. For, although we are
sorry to admit it, a goodly number of
US are only certi fcate holders instead
of teachers. The fact that we must
improve is sufficient. We can compre-
bend that the noble and energetic will
keep moving; such as those that are
to fill positions of honor and trust.
and are the ones that are worthy of
them. They that have not the ambi-
tion to prompt them to make the neces-
sary Improvement must fall in the
rear. IT the present does not expel us
the future will, for the front is press.
ing onward and upward, and we have
our choice to move with the mass or
retire in disgrace. Ignorance will not
much longer be tolerated in our pro-
fession, or any other, for the public
will not be imposed upon, when it Of
fers ample means for furnishing the
necessary requirements Now as a
friendly appeal to my fellow laborers,
| wonld say, let us review ourselves
and see wherein we are weak. Let us
form league within ourselves, prom
ising to give the full force of our men
tai and physical powers to the edifca-
ton of this world enrolling and ma
tional supporting cause.
Teachers mediate upon this subject

us see if we cannot effect an organiza-
