1t under the caption of "Rathel
Shaky:"
Rev. Mr.. Hickey, City Librarian,
has received from his brother q
letter dated Los Angeles, Cal,
June II, from which the fol-
lowing extracts have been made,
as showing a rather vibratory con-
dition OF terra frma in that To-
cality:
1 dou't know what Is to become
Of us. We have had three terrific
earthquakes within the last seve n
hours. The first occurred at 1I:lO
last night, and started us all from
our sleep and beds. In only eight
minutes after that came another,
lasting several seco nds, and 30 fear.
full as to cause the inhabitants to
rush out of their houses into the
streets. Nettie was unable TO speak
or move. The third came at 6:I5
this morning, while we were still
asleep, with q noise like the loudest
cannon, and lasting for eight or
ten seconds. During the second
one the animal creation was great
ly excited-the dogs barking and
the birds fiutteriug and leaving
their nests, though at near mid
night. l have now felt eight earth
quakes in California, but these last
are coming little too often and
severe for com fort to the body.
We should say this overweight
pen picture is "rather shaky." 1t
is calculated to give an entirely
exaggerated idea of our experience.
We have been in Southern Cali
fornia six years and have noted
but four earthquakes and not one
OF them wal calculated to daunt
the nerve of an ordinarily cour-
ageous person, or to arrest the tide
of good humored raillery which
has always accompanied them
amongst men.

Col. J. E. Jackson, County Sur
veyOr, returned yesterday from the
Santiago Canon, where he has been
engaged for the past week In max
ing survey Of the Silverado Min :
ing District. He informs us that
the most wonderful results may be
looked for from the development of
this section. The ledge, which
runs In an easterly direction and
dips at au angle of about 45 degrees,
has been traced for a distance of
over u mile. The lode, which
opens near the top of an almost
perpendicular mountain, that in
clines to an opposite direction from
the treasure vein, presents face
fully five feet broad. The mines
ale most conveniently located. q
good road approaching to within
half mile of them and the slope
Of the mountain being such that
all debris from the tunnel now
being excavated can be dumped
over the side, falling thence to the
bottom of the caf1on. We were
shown some specimens of the ore
yesterday, one of which assays
$500 and another $3.50 to the ton,
with a proportion of lead which
has not yet been ascertained. Dep
uty United States Marshal Dunlap,
who is interested in the mines and
who left yesterday for San Fran
cisco, took number of specimens
with him, which he will have as
sayed there. If the mines should
provo to he as rich as present indi-
cations seem to warrant, we have
here in Los Angeles, il not q bo-
naDza, at least q source of consid-
cradle wealth, in the developm snt
of which it behooves our capitalists
to assist.
The semi-annual statement II
that sterling and sagaciously man

Merchants Bank, appears in our
advertising columns to-day. The

this gratifying exhibit, says,

There is another asset, which is
not included in the general total,
of $23,7l7 76 for interest due and

very gratifying one, and shows
that, in spite Of the severe times
we are in the midst of, this popular

profitable business. We know of
no banking institution outside of

Michael Larkins' saloon at No. $40
West street. N. Y, was broken into at
four o'clock yesterday morning, and
three boxes of cigars worth SIS stolen
there-from. Entrance to the place
was effected by breaking off the iron
bars which held the rear windows.
An alarm was raised, and officer Peter
O'Neil, Of the eight precinct, started
in pursuit of the burglar. On lIous-
ton street he met Richard Glaister,
alias English Dick" aged twenty
eight, of No. $40 West street, with the
three boxes in his possession. Glaister
being we'll known to ONeil as noto-
rious harbor pirate, who had just come
out Of the pcnitentiary, was stopped,
and he was requested to exhibit the
cigars and explain what he was doing
with them at that hour on the street.
Glaister showed fight and produced
an iron jimmy for defense. O'neil
clinched with him, a desperat estrug-
gle ensued. Glaister struck the pol
iceman blow on the head with the
iimmy, which laid ais scalp open to
the skull, and knocked him to the
ground. O'Neil managed to keep his
hold on his assailant, who continued
to pound him with the jimmy. Final
ly, O'Neil got to his feet, and COM
menced to club Glaister. Both men
were now covered with wounds and
blood; the officer was defending his
life and the pirate was struggling for
liberty. They fought and pounded
each other until they both became ex-
hausted, when they fell to the pave
ment, and continued the fight there
to the extent of what little strength
each had left. O'Neil never relaxing
his grip on the burglar until assist
anco came. Then they were both re-
moved to the Eight precinct station,
and their wounds were dressed by the
police surgeon. Glaister was taken
before Justice Bixby yesterday morn
ing, and ONeil and Larkins appear
ed against him, the latter identifying
the cigars as his property. Both of
Glaister's eyes were closed, his head
was covered with bruises, and his face
was raw and discolored with wounds
O'Neil is in as bad a condition. In
fact, both men looked as if they had
