that time there was no railroad TO Los
Angeles but one was in process Of con-
strnction which was completed the same
year. So took the steamer down the
coast and arrived in Los Angeles on a
beautiful MAY morning. The air was
soft and balmy but the city was any
thing but attractive ; not what il is now
with its great brick and stone buildings
and with its fine schools aud magnificent
churches. Ii was quite destitute of all
these and many other things that have
since been introduced there. as the re-
suit Of the great Immigration wave. but
the city was rich 10 old adobes. and
well populated with Mexicans. Ii is
not - to-day. The mighty tide Of immi-
grafton has changed the whole aspect
OF the city and made radical changes in
the whole surrounding country. Our
population now consists of the very
cream Of the civilized world. men aud
women Ofnote and fame whose names
are household words everywhere Fed
eral and confederate generals walk our
streets arm in arm and plead for the
rights OF the people a associates al the
