What Made Them Mad.

The remote origin of the recent
Virginia duel was an editorial in
the State, written by Mr.. Bernie, OF
which the following is an extract

henchmen that what we say and

gang never followed any adventur-

Don't Betray Confidence.

Treachery is detestable fault
therefore let nothing tempt you to
botray secret Confided to your
honor. What ii tho friend who
docs trust you, and told you all the
secrets of his heart, has become
your enemy 7 You are still bound
to keep your word inyiolate, and
preserve locked in your heart the
secrets eontidentalIy made known
to you. A man OF principle will
mover betray an enomy. He holds
it Christian duty never to reveal
what in good faith was placed in his
keeping. While tho Albanlans
were at war with Phillip, King of
Macedon. they intercepted letter
that the king had written to his
wife Olympia. 1t was returned I'M
opened, that it might not be read in
pubIle-thelr laws forbldding them
to reveal secret. Among the
Egypt ans it was a criminal offence
to divulge q secret. A priest who
had boen found guilty Of this of
fence was ordered to leave the coun.
try. Have you another's secret in
your koeping2 Then reveal it not
tor the world. A confding friend
may tell you a hundred things,
which, il whispered abroad, would
bring him into contempt and ridi,
cule, and injure his character
through life. No one is SO upright
that he may not have committed
some ungentlemanly act, or some
impure offence, which may have
boon done years ago, before the in.
dividual's character was formed,
and before he had a wife and chIl
drcn. Would it not be u profana-
ton oftho most social dutios, in u
fit of anger, or out OF malace or re-
yenge, to diyulgo a secret like this !?
A mans enemies would not care
whether it was the fault of his
thoughtIoss youth or his mature
years, so long as they could mako
q handle of it to his injury, and thus
affect their purpose. BE careful,
then, nov er, under any considorn
ton whatoyor, to repeat what has
been whispered TO you in the con f.
donoo of friendship. A betrayor of
secrets is fit only for the society of
the low and vile.

In every community there are

city and County Advancing Pari
Passu.

While, to those who have watched
Los Angeles during the past five Or six
years, the city seems lately to have un-
dergone perhaps abnormal growth, to
rejecting people there is nothing out of
the usual order in this splendid progress,
The country has fully kept pace with
the city in every step OF this great ad-
vance; and the production of Los An
geles county, in ratio, has discounted
everything known in the previous his
tory Of this section. For years the
HERALD has maintained that there is no
farming section Of this State which will
show better results than the broad acres
Of Los Angeles county, when they shall
have been rescued from pastoral pur-
poses, to which for years they have been
dedicated, and devoted to agriculture
and horticulture. Eight years ago there
was broad laugh all over this section
when Mr.. d. Freeman called sale of
his Centinela rancho. 1t was thought
that the outsider was being spoiled.
The Centinela and Sausal Redondo
ranches were looked upon as good cat
tie ranges, and as nothing else. The
idea of growing grain remuneratively
~apen these broad spreads OF vir-
gin Nands was regarded as prepos-
terous! Yet, strange to say, in the
memorable year of drouth, ls76-77,
Mr.. Freeman and his tenants actually
made money, and good deal OF it. In
succeeding years the fact was demon
strated that these disprized acres were
as good grain land, and without irriga-
ton, as existed on the American conti-
nent. Last year, for instance, the con-
hdent prediction was made that not a
single stack of hay or sack Of barley
would be recorded as coming from either
the rancho Centinela or Sausal Redondo.
As result, these properties produced,
in an exceptionally dry year, and with.
out particle of irrigation, slightly rising
upon l26, 900 sacks of wheat and barley,
to the enrichment OF their owner, and
to the establishment, to demonstration,
that Los Angeles county is one of the
most reliable farming regions in this
State N
So much, by way OF example, as to
the fertility of our lands. Mr.. John L
Jackson, the Land Agent of the South.
ern Pacific Railway, informs us that,
upon all hands, the settlement Of the
country districts of Los Angeles and Of
the adjoining counties is proceeding at a
wonderful rate. Lands which, two or
three years ago, were regprded as worth
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1883-11-02

less, are being settled up In remarkable
ratio. This is particularly the case
in Los Angeles, San Bernardino
and San Diego counties. The
purchase, the other day, for the sum ai
sl2S, 900, Of the Escondido ranch Of
Senator John Wolfakill, by San Fran
cisco syndicate. is a case in point. But,
everywhere, the same impulse ia obsery-
able. Some time ago lot Of Pasadena
capitalists purchased lands in the neigh
borhood Of Pinacate, San Diego county.
They struck water at depth, on hill
sides, at that, OF from ten to twenty
feet They find that they have bought
the best grape lands in the world; and,
instead Of being disprized, as in the old
days, these same lands are being eagerly
taken up, with the inevitable result of
gratifying pecuniary outcome to their
purchasers.
Go where we will, in the three South
ern counties, we find that the sagacious
settler has preceded us, and only the
first faint notes Of the yivilicaiion Of
whole section have thus far been struck.
The bulk Of the advance Is still to come.
The city Of Los Angeles is simply keep
ing pace with the development which is
apparent on all hands; and, as to both
city and county, we are only in the mi.
tial OF development which will prove
to be the most marked which has hith-
erto been recorded on the Pacific side
of the American Continent.

They are fortunate in the possession
Of very singular sort of a Judge up at
San Luis Obispo. Elsewhere we repub.
lish, from the Daily Republic, of San
Luis, one of the most incredible out.
givings which has ever characterized
any forum supposed TO be constituted in
the interest of justice. The defendant,
accused of arson, and the District At.
toIney of the county, were both agreed
on one thing, and that was that the
crime had been committed, the former
waving all defence. Nevertheless the
Judge nominated law firm to defend
the prisoner, the defendant deprecating
the action of his judicial protector, and
proclaiming that he had set fire to the
barn, out of whose demolition grew the
action, out of pure 'meanncss." Not
withstanding the fact that the attention
of the Court" was called by the District
Attorney to the plea of guilty, with the
addendum that the crime was committed
out of confessed eussedness, the Judge
peremptorily declined TO entertain the
plea, and adjourned the court while the
protest of District Attorney Graves was
still ringing in his ears. Small wonder
that, in California, we have a somewhat
piebald, ambling "critter," known as
Justice, or that, in San Luis Obispo
county, they run things on tolerably
easy plan: meaning by this euphem-
istic phrase, that the criminal
classes have the upper hand, and
are likely long to maintain it, The
writer of this screed once recorded q
verdict of a jury, in San Diego county,
which recited that the defendant, in an
action for stealing sheep, was innocent,
and which, nevertheless, recommended
him to restore the sheep, but we con-
fess that this action OF Judge" throws
us off our center, and completes the
circle of judicial eccentricities that occu.
py prominent place in our memory,
and which, we heartily hope, are con.
fined to California, and which will not
long be heard of even here.
