The Santa Certrudes Rancho.Yesterday afternoon the editor of the

Herald accompanied Mr. McLean to

the location of the Santa GertrudesRancho, to see the improvements thatare going on. The day was lovely, andthe drive a pleasant one. The late rainhad laid the dust and the air was clear.

It is propo-eed to run a ditch fromthe new San Gabriel ovor the highestportion ofthe land owned by the SantaGjrtrudes Land Association. This willbe over five miles long, and will cost

about $5,000.All improvements of this kind, tend-

ing to extend irrigation and developthe resources of the country, we hailwith pleasure, and are most ready tomake them public.

This tract belongs to the Los Nietostract, formerly owned by John G.Downey, from whom itwas bought bythe. present owners. It contains over12,000, acres over 7,000 of which havealready been sold to settlers, and nowoil the entire rancho there are morethan 600 families, with seven publicschools and other public improve-ments.

Part of the balance of land unsoldcannot bi irrigated, and Edward Mc-Lean, the managing agent of the as-sociation, has been engaged the pastmonth in laying out ihe line of a ditchand flume to bring the water on themesa, or uplands, and he has succeededin securing a line by fluming over amile for bringing water to irrigatesome 2,000 acres of the fiuest mesaland in the county, beautifully locatedand most favorable for oranges, limes,lemons, and all the other fruits soprofitable in this county. At the endof the flume, which reaches the mesalands, a main dried ditch of over fourmiles is surveyed out and definitelymarked by a double furrow. Near thegrade stakes, some two miles of sideditches are also marked out, on theupper side aud above the main ditch.Three large lagunas are favorably lo-cated on the highest grounds that canbe irrigated, and six extensive mainreservoirs are well located, and almostany number of additional reservoirscan be constructed as the cultivationof the lands may require, and an al-most unlimited amount of water canbe collected in the numerous reser-voirs that can be constructed as re-quired. Hence by a full and thoroughirrigation of the land during the win-ter months, an abun lance can bereservoired for nursery and orchard ir-rigation during the summer.

We are confident the constructionof this ditch will at once bring thosemost desirable lands iv demand.

The N. Y. Independent Li unusuallyfearless and outspoken in denuncia-tion of the Cuban atrocity. "Thisbloodthirsty haste," says the editor,"is of a piece with the cruelty whichbutchered a dozen students in Havanafor the crime of scratching the glasson a monument. The deed is done,no adequate redress is now possible.No doubt there will be explanationsfrom Madrid, and no doubt the Castel-ar governmjnt is kindly and justlydisposed; but that will not bring thedead to life, nor can it prove that theSpanish government has any real au-thority Over its subordinates in Cuba.Much as we sympathize with the lib-eral republican government of Spain,we sympathize no less with the effortof Cuba to secure independence; andit may well be that an act which canoaly be excused on the plea of bellig-erency may lead to the recognition byour government of the belligerentrights of the Cuban patriots."

A short time ago the particularsof an outrage alleged to have beencommitted by negroes in Grant Parish,La., Were published in the press, butit was hoped that the statement wasa hoax. The details were too revoltingfor belief, and the whole story was de-nied by the so-called government ofthe State. We now have the sequelin a few lines from New Orleans.Seven of the nine negroes who wereimplicated in the outrage have beenlulled by citizens. So the irrepressi-ble contest goes on, and so we receiveillustratiou after illustration of thea Wantages of such popular govern-ment as federal bayonets have forcedon the people of Louisiana.

According to official ttatements,the Virginius was 18 miles from thecoast of Cuba when the chase began.She headed for Jamaica, distant about100 miles. The chase lasted eighthours, both steamers going at their fullspeed, and both being fast vessels.They must therefore have been verynear Jamaica when the Virginius wasoverhauled' but as the captain, all tbenavigators aud crew of that vessel havebeen killed by the Spaniards, they canput the distance at what they please.

Tire Havana Conttancia says thatwhen the news of the capture of theVirginias was received there, "itwasthought that something would be triedto prevent the pirates from receivingtheir just chastisement."

WASHINGTON.Washington, Nov. 26.?Secretary

Robeson left last night for Philadel-phia, on business connected with thefitting out of vessels.

It Is said at tho navy yard that in-stead of orders being issued for the sus-pension of work, the preparation ofvessels is hurried.

The first intimation yesterday of aprobable change of administration inSpain, with Serrano as Dictator, camethrough British official sources. To-day a story comes from another quar-ter, that the Castellar Government isto be overthrown by a combination ofruling Spaniards. The plan is said to

include the establishment of Serranoas Regent for the young Duke Al-phonso. Our government has no offi-cial advices on the subject, nor does itconsider these reports trustworthy.

The Secretary of the Interior to-day

affirmed the decision of the Commis-sioner of the General Land Office, in

the case of Arthur St. Clair and othersagainst the Western Pacific railroad.This decision is to the effect that theLewis survey of the Los I'ocitas ran-

cho, made in 1854, and covering aboutfour square leagues, correctly marked"Outer boundaries of Los Pocitas

Grant," within which two squareleagues were subsequently confirmedby the U. B. Supreme Court and pat-ented to Mexican grantee. Theselands comprise over 30,000 acres, and.about 120 settlers are affected adverse-ly by the decision.

Apatent was issued to-day for Ran-cho Canada de Sau Vincent y Mesa delPadre Baroua, in San Diego county,

containing 13,316 acres.The War Department has issued a

general order requiring all disbursingofficers, as far as practicable, to keep

the bulk of the funds advanced to

them in independent treasury offices,and limit deposits in local depositorybanks to such amounts only as may benecessary for small local payments.

NEW YORK.New York, Nov. 25.?A Washing-

ton dispatch says the Secretary of theNavy has decided to issue orders tosuspend work on the iron-clads, and to

detach from large vessels recently or-dered into commission, all ofiicers, toawait further orders. The transporta-tion of ordnance stores to Key Westwill also be stopped.

There is no possibility, it is said, ofsettling the diplomatic controversy be-tween Spain and tbe United States formany months tocome, which accountsfor the orders.

Evacuation Day was celebrated ina quiet way by the veterans of1812, by a dinner at the armory of theSeventh Regiment.

Tweed remains in the Tombs, but iscomplaining of the dampness andstench of the cell in which he wasfirst placed. He has been removed toa cell on the second tier, in what iscalled the new prison. He only re-ceives his relatives and counsel. Yes-terday, over $1,000,000 worth of hisproperty was transferred. It con-sisted entirely of real estate in NewYork.

The Times says Henry Clewes &Co. have made arrangements withmost of their creditors and will soonresume business.

Judge Barrett has refused to appointR. C. Bourne and B. C. Wetmore trus-tees for the benefit of bond holders offirst mortgage on the central branchof the Union Pacific Railroad, on theground of their connection by bloodand business with the officers of thecompany.

Albany, Nov. 25.?Official examin-ation shows that the State Treasurydefalcation, through Cashier Phelps,will be $331,772, $200,000 of whichwas stolen iv August last, and the re-mainder in September. The irregulari-ties in the olhce are not of a nature towarrant the removal of the Treasurer.

Active preparations for defendingHavana are being made. Guns arcbeing mounted on all the forts aroundthe city. Who are to man them no-body knows, as they have no compe-tent artillery men.

The Spaniards talk warlike, and saythey will fight to the last before theysurrender the Virginius or crew.

The Conservative journals daily ex-cite a warlike feeling, and the Repub-licans occasionally concur lest theyshall be thought unpatriotic...Montreal, Nov. 25.?1t is estima-ted that 80,000 French Canadians havereturned from the United States duringthe past three weeks, owing to a largeBtoppage of manufacturers.

LETTER FROM SALT LAKE.Salt Lake City, l tali Territory, \

.November 2", 1573. JDear Mr. W :?l've gotten pretty

high up in the world (4,300 ft.; but notso high as to forget the friends that Ileft in the little city near the sea, andthe promise I made of writing.

I'm quite in love with this eyrie.No city has so superb a mounting, theWasatch encompass it with a royalrim, seen on this glorious Indian Sum-mer day, one instinctively recalls theIndian legend, which runs somethinglike this. When the lofty and barrenmountains were first lifted into thesky, aud from their elevation lookeddown on the lesser heights coveredwith the vine, and the olive, and thefruitful trees, and the valleys verdautand flowery, they sent up a murmurof complaint to Brahma, "Why thusbarren? Why these scarred and nakedhillsides exposed to tbe eye of men?"And Brahma answered, "The verylight shall clothe you, and the shadowof the passing cloud shall be a royalmantle. More verdure would be lesslight, ye shall share in the azure ofheaven, ye belong half to us." Andso were the mountains dowered.

No eloquence of words can describethe beauty of this valley viewed fromthe Bench. The City is scattered overan area of ten miles, regularly laid outbut sparsely built. The streets, eightrods wide cross at right angles, andare bordered with trees whose rootsare kept lively by the "Sects" (theMormon word for zanja) which runthrough the length and breadth of theCity. We have plenty of breathingroom, for the blocks, seven to themile, were laid out in acre and quarterlots, so that every household couldhave orchard and "truck patch" beforeits door. The plan has been some-what modified by the growth of thecity, but enough of it remains to givethe piace "the air of a green count rietowue" though. We are quite civiliz-ed with street cars, gas, theatre, lec-ture hall, etc. The Theatre is quite ahandsome building, capable of accom-modating a large audience in the par-quette, dress circle, and three tiers ofgallery. The stock company is ex-cellent, several old California names,Crosbie, Cogswell, Kate Deniii, etc.May Howaru has been "starring" forthe last week. I'm no dramatic critic,but seems to me that she lacks thereal histrionic power.

ln the number and variety ofchurches, there is no lack. To beginwith the .Mormons, there are tweniy-oue Ward .Meeting Houses, exclusiveof the iabeiliacie, which alone seatsi2,oU<i, in which tiienew revelations ot"Celestial Marriage, Baptism tor thedead, polygamy, 1 etc,, are preached tothe »am in. liieiicome iv tue Variousreligious oodies, from the o.ucst downto uic newest, 'there is no occasionlor a man to err lor the want of in-struction. He can hear preaching notonly in his own tongue, out iv his ownbeuel ?which is uu iiupiovemetit outhe peutccostal dispensation. Kemem-ber we believe in latter-day revela-tions, in these mountains, but I musteomess that the utteiaucesot the 'tab-ernacle sometimes savor more of earththan of heaven, perhaps it is becauseI'm a (jieulile.

1 believe I'm becoming naturalizedto everything about me except Poiyga-my. it does not seem quite naturalior a man lo hold as wives a motheranU her two daughters, or three sisters,or two uieces, etc. The size of thefamilies is quite interesting, imagineH your fancy is capable ofsuch a Right,seventy-two chilmen belonging to onemau. They tola me a story of anotherman, who had a contract on the rail-roud, and had forty of his own familyemployed in the work. There is anexample of home manufacture?orhome industry.

These people live as comfortably asin any new country; they are chieflyengaged in agriculture, cultivatingtrum Aye to fiftyacres and upwards.As in California, the laud is rich audproductive where it can be irrigated,water is the disideratum in the devel-opment of the Territory. The climate,thus far has been delightful, one fallofsnow, which carried me back to theold Kentucky Home.

Your l'rienu, Jdsephine Cole.

AN ADDRESSTo the Citizens of Los Angeles County.

The Loh Angeles Chamber of Com-merce was incorporated in August ofthis year, and has therefore been Inoperation about three months. Itnumbers among its members some ofour most influential and respectablecitizens. Its object is tiie advance-ment of all the material interests ofthe county. An organization of thiskind has "long been wanted, for withour Incomparable soil and climate,and resources almost without number,we have lacked that energetic and en-terprising unity of action that is es-sential for tho development of thoseresources; and although the countyhas steadily prospered and Increasedin wealth and population, still theproportion of such prosperity is in-significant to What it would have beenhad ths advantages we possess beenknown abroad. To every thinkingperson in this county these facts mustbe apparent without entering into fur-ther details, but as an illustration ofhow little interest has been mani-fested in anything concerning thecounty being known outside of it, itneed only be stated that for years SanDiego has been receiving the credit inthe San Francisco papers of all thefreight and passengers belonging toLos Angeles, and yet this was not cor-rected until the Chamber of Com-merce took hold of the matter; andnow, through its action, our ports areproperly credited. This is merely re-lerred to as a proof of what can bedone if the proper steps are taken,and what it is believed can be accom-plished by this Chamber if it has themeans to carry out its aims andobjects.

this county needs a large accessionof population and capital for the de-velopment of its resources, and themost eltectual manner of acquiringboth is by the dissemination ot infor-mation concerning the advantages itpossesses over every other section ofthe Union. Tiie Chamber of Com-merce are now regularly mailing onehundred copies of one of our weeklypapers to many of the principal hotels,libraries and reading rooms in thecountry, and the number will belargely increased. It is also proposedto publish v pamphlet embodying inaconcise form a descnpt.on of tiiecounty, its resources, ciimate, capa-bilities, etc., and to cause tiie same tobe extensively circulated throughoutall the States of the Union. Thispamphlet will be issued by the Cham-ber of Commerce, and the facts it willcontain will be obtained from the mostreliable sources. It is believed thatthis willhave the efleet of attractinga vast amount of attention, and willbring to us that addition to our popu-lation and capitul that is so muchneeded; all of this will involve greatlabor and expense. Rooms will haveto be obtained and furnished, and theconstant services of efficient personswill be required to answer the corres-pondence that will naturally follow thecirculation of these papers and pam-phlets.

Having no interests to subserve butthe public good, and the prosperity ofLos Angeles county, and every part ofit, it hopes to be able through our rep-resentatives to secure such Nationalaud State legislation as may promotethis object. It is impossible in thespace of this address to enter into com-plete details of what is expected to beaccomplished by this Chamber, butsufficient has been said to awaken aninterest in its success, in the mind ofevery citizen of the county.

In order to carry out the above plansit is necessary to have funds; the regu-lar income of the Chamber is insuffi-cient for this purpose and the Board ofDirectors take this method of appeal-ing for aid to all who may have it intheir power to contribute toward theattainment ofresults so desirable.

At the last regular meeting of theChamber the following gentlemenwere appointed a Committee to receivesuch subscriptions, and which can bemade at their respective places ofbusiness, viz: P. Beaudry; John G.Downey, Farmers & Merchants Bank;H. D. Barrows, of H. D. Barrows &Co.; M.J. Newmark, of H. Newmark& Co.; L W. Lord, late of Dotter &Lord.

It is earnestly hoped that a promptresponse willbe made to this appeal,ami that every citizen of the countywill contribute what may be in hispower, for surely a more laudable ob-ject could not well be presented fortheir consideration and suppport.M.

The New Governor ok Wiscon-sin.?ihe Chicago Times of Novem-ber 7th says:

William R. Taylor, the Governorelect of Wisconsin, is a man of about55 years of age. He is a native of NewEngland, but has resided for overtwenty-live years in Dane county,Wisconsin. During all that time liehas cuiivuted a large farm iv tbe townof Cottage Grove, about six miles fromMadison. Pursuing this occupationwith unremitting industry auU withthe thrifty habits that vindicate hisnativity, lie has prospered in a highdegree, aud is the possessor of an in-dependent fortune. He has served ivboth brunches of the Legislature, inoue of the active trusteesof the insanehospital, aud is President of tbe StateAgricultural Society, ln all of thesepositions he has shown great capacityior public uflairs, and has att'ordeuabundant assurance that his adminis-tration will be characterized by rigideconomy and absolute integrity. Tay-lor was a Democrat of the olu schooi,and duriug the war did not escape theappellation of "copperhead." But hebecame a Granger very soou after theinception of that movement, is masterof a local Grange, aud was oue of theilrst to advise the abandonment of theDemocratic cadaver, aud the organiza-tion of a party on a new and reformedbasis. In person he is a man of largeand rather unwieldy frame, with acomplexion bronzed by a long seriesof harvest suns, with hands thatearned the callous long before thefarmers' movement made plow-handles fashionable. Doubtless hewillbe something less than a hand-some flgure-head forthe Badger State,but he is quite certain to be very muchmore than a flgure-head.

The Danbury News says: "TheFitchburg (Massachusetts) Sentinel,au excellent paper, is going to start adaily. We are glad of it. We starteda daily once. We ran it nearly fourmonths, and then paused. Since thenwe take a lively interest in such enter-prises. We have no doubt the Sentinelpeople will make the daily work, andwe are quite positive itwillmake themwork. Aman who goes through lifewithout having started a daily papermisses a rare and valuable experience.Falling down stairs with a cook stovewillhardly compensate him.
