A NEW CHURCH.

In lS45, the bulk of the congregation
worsbipping in the Monuments decided
IN move isto their new church, St. PauIs,
and to be under the rec,orshlp OF Kew.
VIM. Norwood, then pastor OF the Mon
umentsl. On the first OF the following
December the move wss made, ana II
few of the members of the congregation
remained st the Monumental, and DR..
Woodbridge, who had been pastor st
Christ Church (Which became too SINAI!
TOR theml. became rector OF the Monu'
mental, and remained the rector until
March, 1878, when ne died-a period o.
nearly thirty-tour years.
Two motives sctuated these few lndi-
vidusls to give the invitation to the cen
grecstion of Christ Church and their
rector. One was the desire to keep up
this old church, sacred TO the
feeIipGs of those who hsd
worshipped in it from their
infancy, and believing too that Its !oca'
tion was, perhaps. the best IN the city
and the other one the more etfectuali '
TO build up congregation that would
ensble the Rev. Geo Woodbridge to ex-
tend h,s valuable lsbors in the ministry.
DR.. WOODBRIDGE took charge OF the
Monumental church or the first Sundsy
in December, lS45.
The church has a. this time between
three and four hundred communicsnts.
and although the city has grown west
ward still there is quite large congre-
cation attending. and the church Is free
from debt, except sn unpaid balance OF

THE Charter Committee for now
nearly q month have been indefat-
igable and earnest in their labors
designed to give Los Angeles a
good local constitution. The great
bulk of the labor has been imposed
on few public spirited gentlemen.
During that time it has been eX-
ceeding1y difficult to get a quorum
together, yet we have reason to be-
lieve that the work has been well
done. Tomorrow afternoon, at l
o'clock, at the City Council rooms,
it is proposed to hold final meet
ing, of the character of revision and
ratification. 1t is hoped that every
member of the Committee will be
present at this meeting. 1t is there
proposed to give the instrument
the final touches; and, as the
working members of the Commit
tee have at no stage consulted their
own personal convenience, it is
hoped that all will incommode
themselves little on Friday and
that thus q full attendance will be
recorded.

more than protest against the
terms of peace, whatever their
character may be.

maintenance of Austrian interests
as heretofore declared and tempta-

OUR good natured Southern
neighbor, the editor of the San
Diego Ne,os, has lately taken to
copying portions of HERALD arti-
Giles on transcontinental railways.
Below portions of said articles
which we had thought we had care
fully elaborated, and into which we
supposed we had infused a good
deal of common sense, will appear
such exhaustive and annihilating
criticisms as "tllis is too thin" We
should dislike to try to disturb the
tender confidence of our neighbor
in Tom Scott. For the nonce, to
oblige 1t, we shall conceie that his
star is in the ascendant and that 1t
deserves so to be. But how would
1t be-perish the thoughtful it
shall turn out that Tom Scott is just
as helpless to carry out any plans
of railway building whatever as
either the editor of the NeiOs OF
HERALD? II we believe this, and it
turns out to be the correct idea
after all, we shall not have shown
such an astonishing lack of wisdom,
especially not when we consider
that Scott's projects aim at the ag
grandizement of San Diego and not
of Los Angeles. While our argu'
ments are not, dependent for theil
responsibility on Scotps success OIL
failure, the people who have been
placing their whole reliance on the
pseudo railway king will find theiI
arguments aud their interests both
powerfully assailed in the event
of Congress declining to stultify
the long and consistent record Of
the Democratic party, which it GER
tainly would do by granting new

Attempt 10 Revive the SanfiiInn
Claim.

AtSeHpl ~ AseSiNo sho cuuAhtihh
Claim.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Amnng
the thirty-three hundred bills
which have been introduced in the
House of Representatives during
the past four months, one which
bears the very inconspicuous title
of "a bill for the relief of certain
citizens of the United States" rel
alive to a private land claim, has
to-day been discovered to be moth
ing less than proposition to revive
the Santillan claim, covering the
greater part Of the city ofSan Fran
cisco. Horace Davis made the dis
covery through the Chairman Of
the Private Land Claims Commit
tee, to whom the bill was referred
when introduced by Representative
O'Neill, of Pennsylvania. The
Chairman of the Committee seems
to be favorably impressed with 1T
and when Davis told him it would
undoubtedly be regarded with
alarm and call forth opposition
from California, he said he would
be glad to receive an expression of
views on the subject from the San
Francisco newspapers. The bill
proposes to give the United States
District Court for California power
and jurisdiction to determine in the
light of alleged newly discovered ev-
idence whether the Santillan claim
was q valid grant at the time when
said grant was declared invalid by
the Supreme Court and the value
thereof at that time, and whether
said lands have been disposed of by
the United States; and gives the
right of appeal to the Supreme
Court from the decision so author
lied to be made. The grant of this
extraordinary jurisdiction is, how
ever, made conditional upon pro-
viso that action shall be first taken
by the owners of the claims as fol-
lows: The Trustees of the San Fran
cisco Land Association shall exc
cute and record in the Office of the
County Recorder of the city and
county OF San Francisco deed of
release of all their right, title and
interest of, in and to all lands
known as the Mission Dolores, lands
in and near said city, included
within the alleged grant by Gov.
Pho Pico under the laws of Mexico,
bearing date February 10th, 1846,
and known as the Bolton claim for
the use and protection of all per.
sons lawfully in possession of said
lands ar any part thereof;reserving,
however, to said trustees the right
to apply to the Congress of the
United States for compensation
therefor. The promoter of the bill
says it's purpose is only to lay the
foundation for a claim against the
government and not to distrust any
property holders. But granting
that they have no other purpose in
view, the bill seems open to grave
objections as being against public
policy, opening the door to possibly
manufactured records and as being
very loosely drawn. Thus, for
instance, the word "lawfully "

tions, and no mention is made OF
