esting friend, Judge H. X. S.
U'Melveny, nominee on some
mushroom ticket or other for ST.
perior Judge. II our remarks shall
appear to be characterized by a
spirit of persifage we hope that our
venerable friend will condone the
venial transgression. All who
know the Judge recall the fact that,
In his unconventional moments,
when the restraints of caste ana
high dignity and character weigh
most heavily upon him, he is ac-
customed to relax into the ease ana
abandon of the jovial and merry
"many headed multitude" In such
moments be is in the habit OF
lightly raising his cane, throwing
it over his right shoulder and clasp
ing the neither end thereof with his
left hand. Thus he pursues the
even tenor of his way, like an in
fantryman at rest. The morning
after the election upon the new
Constitution, when it was certain
that the miraculous new organic
law, which is to make California
great and prosperous, and which is
to give everybody who had hither-
to eaten hashed mutton rare roast
beef at least, If not with cham
payne garnishment, the Judge was
seen going down the street in the
attitude we have described. Not
only that, but he was positively
humming a refrain. A keen.eared
spectator caught the notes. They
ran thus, forming at least a fine
Pindaric chaunt:
The New Constitution! The New Con-
situtionl!
The voice OF the Peoplell The voice of
the People!!!
There is something Delphic and
mysterious about this blank po-
etry. We are not sufficiently
versed in blank verse to know
whether or no it is in meter, or
whether or no its cadences are
nicely attuned to correct ear. But
we are certain of one thing, and
that is that, in this mystic couplet,
is contained the abacadabra by
which our venerable friend expects
to make his way to the Superior
Judgeship of Los Angeles county.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-08-01

THE Dem ocratic Convention yes
terday, in declining to rescind a
proper resolution passed by it at an
early stage of its proceedings, did
well. In so declining, by an over
whelming majority, it did better.
The assertion of manly party
spirit is presage of victory. 1t is
our duty to see that tie Banner
Democratic county shall give a
good account Of itself in Septem
ber. We have been frank and de-
cided in the expression of our opin-
ion that the Democracy should
make all proper concessions to the
New Constitution element Of the
party. But the true passport to
Dem mocratic recognition is an ad.
mission that the party nomination
is paramount to all others and ex-
elusive of all others-at least in
Los Angeles politics. The man
who is too dainty TO take a Demo.
cratic nomination, with its honor
able and usual pledges, is entirely
too ETHEREAL and ecstatic for ordin-
ary use. He ought to be wrapped
up in lavender and laid aside for
uses when the party has become
transcendental. He is splendid
fellow, no doubt, and ought to be
regarded with great respect, but he
is really too sweet to live in the or
binary atmosphere of politics. The
political "goody" dies young,
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-08-01

The Democratic Convention in
unanimously nominating Judges
Sepulveda and Stephens for the
two Superior Judg eships of Los
Angeles county emphasized the de.
cided preference of cur people.
Both are staunch Democrats, able
men and lawyers of recognized
ability. Judge Sepulveda, to our
appreciation, is the very pick and
flower of the Native California
race. He has had a checkered and
romantic career. Educated in
Massach usetts, he is a gentleman
Of pronounced culture who has, in
his time, served sort of appren-
ticeship to the art preservative of
all arts. He is ripe scholar, ac-
complished linguist, has been a
printer, soldier and lawyer, is now
Judge, is devoted to his profess
sion and will be o Judge again.
He made a narrow escape from be-
ing Q United States Senator few
years ago; and, we have no doubt,
had he chosen to sacrifice his love
for the judiciary,and for judiciary
confined to Los Angeles county at
that, he would, very probably, have
achieved the seat in the United
States Senate, a post for which we
advocated him on account of his
eminent fitness. During the last
sessions Of the several State nom-
mating Conventions he has
been rendered all sorts of
nominations, from Judge of the
Supreme Court down to Congress
man from the Fourth Congression-
al District. He has declined all Of
these complimentary overtures be-
cause he is determined to stay with
his own people and continue his
unobtrusive career on the bench of
Los Angeles county. Our people
will undoubtedly meet him half
way and ratify his local preference
by tremendous majority. AS to
Judge Stephens, younger but
equally worthy gentleman,we We have
nothing but golden words. He has
already served a portion of the
term as County Judge to which the
people had elected him, has given
satisfaction in that posi-
ton and has extorted the admira-
tion of the bar. Before his resi-
dence In Los Angeles county began
Judge Albert M. Stephens had won
an enviable reputation at the bar
in Tennessee, and hal officiated
with distinguished recognition as
District Attorney of the county in
which Memphis is situated. He is
. gentleman of pronounced and
,arious merits, both as an individ-
ual, lawyer and judge. His local
career thus far is an earnest that
The high personal honor, fine legal
mind and unusual judicial capabili-
lies which have thus far distin-
guished him in Los Angeles county
Will characterize him in the new
Ind somewhat more exalted digni-
" to which he Is certain to be ad-
vanced as the result of the election
IN the Sd of September ensuing.
The Convention has. really rati-
led the preference of the people in
Its judicial nominations.

The scourge ia New Orleans.

NEW YORK, July 3lst.-A Times
New Orleans special says: The con-
fiict of opinion between the Board
of Health and majority of physi-
clans makes it difficult for that
body aud the public generally to
ascertain the true condition of af-
fairs here. The Board only admits
the existence of four cases of fever,
but from physicians in private
practice 1 have reports making the
number of cases now existing sew
enteen and the total number to
date twenty-seven. This includes
cases now suspicious, but believed
to be yellow fever. The principal
cause of reluctance to report is the
resolution adopted by the Board OF
Health to isolate each case, and
the physicians will not allow their
patients and families to be SO dis.
commoded, therefore they will not
report. All cases known are iso.
lated, and the surrounding streets
drenched with zinc and iron. The
exodus has begun, and alarm is
visible on every side, being, per-
than last year. 1t is not considered
as certain that there will be an ep-
idemic, although since the disease
has manifested itself so early in the
season, the prospect is very grave,
and the probability strong that
among those yet remaining unac-
climated the disease will run it's
course pretty thoroughly before the
frosts set in. There is a eonsidera-
BILE tendency to complication with
malaria, as last year, but the dis
ease is apparently of much mild
er type than usual with early cases.
The fact that Mobile will not lay
an embargo upon through trains
has given hope to business men
and helped materially to check the
tendency to depression. In fact,
outside of those on the eve of de-
parture, there is little exciteme ent
visible, and the old Creole stolldity
in the face of an impending epi.
demic is much more apparent than
for years.
Minnesota Crops.
NEW YORK, July 3lst.-Dis-
patches from Minnesota announce
that the harvest has begun and the
weather is unfavorable. The yield
will average fifteen bushels to the
acre, making a total amount of
44,O00, 900 bushels. Most of that
raised in the northern part of the
State will be No. |, aud in the
southern part No. 2 and 3. All
will likely be harvested in good
condition. Other grains promise
still better.

WASHINGTON, July 31st.-The
coinage of the standard silver dol
lar will this month fall between
S5OO,000 and $500 600 short Of the
minimum amount fixed by law,
50 900 900 monthly. The deficiency
will be due to the fact that, on the
first of July, the 1tock of silver
bullion at the Sau Francs SEQ and
Carson City mints bad been so
much reduced, there was nothing
to commence work upon. Since
then it has been impossible to pro-
cure bullion for those mints. Up
to the 10th of June, work was
pushed forward continually at the
Philadelphia and New Orleans
mints, so as to run the coinage up
to the $2,000,000 required for the
month. The mint at Philadelphia
will be run day and night during
August, to make up the deficiency.

WASHINGTON, July S1st.-Mc-
Garrahar is not TO be put down.
He says that he considers it as Pc
culiar that the Secretary was able
to discover that the Company's
valid claim covered a particular
spot in controversy when he had
four hundred and eighty acres to
choose from, and that he managed
to see title there which was
worthless for every part Of the
claim. This will appear to the
others as the strikingly original
feature in the decision. Mr.. Nc
Garrahau regards it as the best de-
cision that be has yet in his favor,
because it establishes the principle
that two-thirds of the controverted
land was not the property of the
company. He will appeal TO Con-
gress.
