Ready Relief mine, "takes the
whole bakery": "Sheriff Coyne,
who wss up in Julian District a
few days since, reports that large
boulder Weighing eight or nine
hundred pounds has been taken
from the mine which Is a decided
curiosity. By heavy blows from
sledge the boulder was cracked
through the middle, but the parts
refused to separate. Upon investi-
CATION 1t was found that they were
held together by baLds or strips
Of free gold, which extended across
the crack from one part of the stone
to the other. We are assured seri.
ously that this is no "miner's

give the report as 1t was given to
us, upon seemingly good author

affairs Of the Horticultural Society
will be glad to learn that, yester-
day, at a meeting of the Truatees,
presided over by Judge Widney,
an arrangement was made by
which the people Of Los Angeles
have been given another opportun-

public uses. Only a few days were
left of the equity of redemption,
and the mortgage, on being APP
piled to, declined to extend the
time. Through the efforts of
Judge Widney and other gentle.
men the $4,000 were raised, and an
assignment was had of the mort
gage to parties who agree to wait
sixty days for their money. IT is
proposed to re-incorp0rate the rs.

will make 1t forever impossible,
hereafter, to mortgage or other
wise cucumber the property, so
that IL our public spirited citizens
come to the rescue on the present
occasion and save the property 1t
will be saved for all time.
