Han. D. ¡Í. Kuril, oí San Diego.
We   perceive   that   in   the  classification   of  the
politics of the members elect of the Assembly,
the Sacramento Union and San Francisco papers
put down Mr. Kurtz asa Douglas ¡nan. This is a
mistake. Mr. Kurt?, was a staunch and tine friend
of Breckinridge and Lane, aud voted at the San
Luis Rey precinct, in his county, an open Ureelíin-
ridge ticket. In San Diego county there are not
enough Douglas men to form a Grand Jury, and it
would be passing strange i( a Douglas man were
elected thnie. This collection will leave the Douglas men in a minority of bj'x in the Asssembly.

Close ofOic  Vintage—Harvest Home.
With the increase of our vintage, we are becoming more familiar with ihe customs of those lands
from which, heretofore, we have obtained- our supplies of the generous juice. The custom of celebrating the generous feast of the "Harvest Home,"
on the conclusion of the vintage, has been introdu
ced among us thia year. This genial custom, common in "Fatherland" and especially along the
course of the classic Rhine, of celebrating the festival of Harvest Home, at the close of the vintage,
wan introduced here hy Mr. Frohling, on-Sunday
last, at hia vineyard ; on which occasion lie invited
his friends and neighbors and employees, to a social
reunion, which was one of the most delightful that
can be conceived. It was an occasion long to be
remembered. The entertainment was in a style
of munificent hospitality. Nearly two hundred
guests were present, including tho " Teuton ia"
ninging society, whose tine songs were a pronvnent
feature of the day's festivities.
About 3 o'clock, p. m., tho company sat down at
the long row of tables, which were littcrally loaded
with the choicest edibles of the season. The banquet
gegan with oyster soup, and continued through a labyrinth of courses, both solids and bibulants, altogether too numerous to mention. After the dinner,
the time was passed in jovial, social intercourse, and
iu listening to tremían songs by the " Teutonia."—
Wc were glad to find we had so excellent a musical
society among us. The precision, taste, and high
culture exhibited by thcTeutonians in some of their
$úX\o\i\t jugues, were admirable, and were received
with applause.
After spending some hours in dancing, the assemblage broke up about ten o'clock, v. M. May
the custom, thus begun by Mr. Frohling, long be kept
up, in our vineyard city, of celebrating the close of
the vintage by the generous feast of the Harvest
Home.
U. S. ¡Surveying Party.
The party, under command of Lieut. Mowry.
which arrived here by tlie last steamer, are now in
camp in the suburbs of the city, awaiting the arrival
of animals iVom Fort Yuma.
The destination of the party h Fort Mojave,
where they arc to establish the initial point for the
survey of the eastern boundary of the State, to be
prosecuted during the next summer. The parly
will first m.ike a reconnoisance, as long as the season will permit, which will greatly facilitate their operations when the survey is entered upon.
Lieut. Ives, in command of the astronomical department, is now at the Colorado river, with his
company. The party will leave here about Christmas, it is expected, and be engaged in the preliminary operations about four months. The company
Is composed of educated and refined gentlemen
who, we *re sure, will efficiently discharge the ira
por tan t duties entrusted to them. AVe have heard
that several of the appointments emanated directly
from the President. Lieut. Mowry is expected daily from San Francisco. We have not lit ard the names
of the gentlemen in charge of the various scientific
departments of the expedition.
Rain.—Yesterday, a gentle shower of rain fell in
the afternoon—after many days of lowering clouds
and rain-signs. We hope old mother earth will got
a copious supply, so as to enable her don her
emerald robes for the approaching holidays.

This court was engaged during Friday and Sat*
urday last, in the trial of tbe replevin suit which
lias so long been pending, viz : Ford v. Thompson,
Sheriff—J, J. Tomlinsou having indemnified tbe
Sheriff, and being responsible for the amount of
whatever judgment tin-it may bu obmiued against
the defendant. The cese was tried by a jury of
twelve men, who brought in a verdict for the
pli-tiutifl, and found tho value of tbe property levied upon ami taken away by tbe Sheriff to he
$2000, which makes the judgment equivalent to
§2000, and costs amounting to $479,64.
Dec. 5th.—Benjamin F Jlallliews v. Walter A.
Shay : action for slander. The cause of action
in this case arose in San Bernardino, of which
county the parties arc resident?,—but owing to
the prejudice that existed there in relation to tbe
same, the venue was changed to this county. The
trying of tbe Issue occupied two days, when tbe
jury, after del i berating about fifteen miuutes,
brought in a verdict for the defendant.

llUBNrX'0  OK TUB   LYCEUM  TUKATKIt.
About 8 o'clock on Tuesday morning tbe Lyceum building, on the northwest corner of Montgom-1
ery and Washington .streets, was discovered to be ;
on lire. When íirst peen tbe whole roof was In
(lames, and tbe fire had gained suuh headway tbat
it. was impossible to save the theater. After several hours'hard labor hy tbe firemen, the smoke
ceased to issue ¡rom the building and the brick
walls ¡Stood, blackened and ; unsupported. Tbe
damage done is treat. But the loss falls heaviest
on the per dinners at the Lyceum, they being illy
ible. to affurd the burning tip of their vvard-
obesaud proderties. John Kelly lost the cre-
mona presented to him by his father, more than
twenty Veáis ago. Tbe instrument was one which
has been heard in every town in the State, and has
been the constant companion of its owner Irom
infancy Such losses cannot be measured by moil
ey, anil therefore they are more severe.
EXPLOSION OK UAH.
On Wednesday evening, at about 7 o'clock, a
number of members of tht; '-Order of Knighthood'-'
met in their room, in Piatt's Mu.sic Hall, for busi
ness. . About forty gentlemen bad assembled, and
one ol tbeir number lighted a match, when instantly there was a terrible explosión, Tbe walls
trembled and cracked, portions of the plastering
fell to the floor, and part ot the cornice cu the
front part of lb*, building was thrown to tbe sidewalk. Two persons were Injured. Mr. S. Lerk
was severely burped, and is in a critical condition.
Mr. P. Franklin was also burned, but not seriously. The excitement in the immediate neighborhood was intense, and for a time it was supposed
r-D attempt bad been made to destroy tbe building
by means of gunpowder. Tbe cause of the explo
siou was this : One of tbe gas pipes had been left
open, consequently tbe loom was filled with the
inflammable material. As eoon as the match was
lighted the result was as we have stated. Those
pi rsous who were near the door escaped injury.—
The accident bus proved the firmness of Piatt's
building, for, had the structure been lightly built,
the whole front would have been thrown out, and
the house ruined. As it is, but little damage lo
the Hall has resulted from the explosion.
PITY THE FOOIÍ KKIT.OW.
Frederick Bailhaus commenced suit for divorce
from Catharine, bis wife, in the Twelfth District
Court, to-day. He alleges that they were married
in this city in the year 1863, aud until the 23d of
November of tbis year lived together ; Lhat she
has been euilty of extreme cruelty toward bim ;
during all that time stie has annoyed bim to tlie
extent of ber power ; has addressed bim daily tbe
most vulgar aud opprobrious epithets; tbat she
has often struck and beat bim with her fists, and
has threatened to kill him ; that she is a woman
of violent passions and gieai bodily strength; that
iu 1866, when they lived in a house on Greenwich
street, siie violently struck at him wtib au axe ;
that in September last ihe maliciously cut and injured several chairs with a murderous looking
knife, and has often played ''smash" generally
with furniture aud crockery ; that on the 22d
inst. she broke a valuable table in their bouse on
Lombard street, and ou tbe next day, seizing one
of its heavy legs, felled her husband to the floor,
and severely cut and wounded him. by reason of
which injuries be is still sick and sore ; tbat in
September, 1SG0, she seized a stick ol firewood
and beat him ou the head. This cruelty, he alleges, he could stand no longer, and he was obliged
to leave his house. He asks divorce and the cus*
tody of his two children.
DEATH OK MR. BAEBIER.
A young gentleman named A. F. Barbier fell
from the roof of tbe Lyceum Theater, while
was burning, and broke bis neck. He lived 24
hours, with the vertebra severed. He was engaged
to be married to a young lady on Christmas, who,
wben shelearued of his death, attempted to take
her own life by swallowing a dose of poison. Her
conduct excited suspicion, and she was rescued —
Mr. B. was buried, by ihe Fire Department on
Thanksgiving Day.
A PACIXUC  F.El'LfiLIC.
A few days ago the ¿Times contained an edito
rial in which it detailed tbe facts of an organiza
tion which bad recently held several secret meetings, having foi' its object tbe establishment of a
Pacific Republic; embracing California, Oregon,
Washington Territory, Western Utah, Lower California, and, possibly, Sonora. Tlie article attracted little attention at the time, having been regarded as an emanation irom the brain of Mr.
Wasiiburne for the sole purpose of giving bim an
opportunity of lampooning a few political opponents, and which, by the way, he did, in bis very
best Billingsgate. But, a lew days later, tbe
Herald contained a leader, in which it spoke of
ibe Pacific Republic as a consummation not at all
impossible and most devoutly to be wished. This
article has set the reasoning minds of llie Pacific
coast to thinking, and as each Pony brings us accounts ot tbe secession movement in the States, a
growing impression seems to obtain that we would
bo far belter off out of tbe Union, anyhow; for
what has our venerable Uncle ever done for us at
all commensurate with our merits? Should such
au event happen, Sonora would be thrown open to
tbe enterprise and energy of the Anglo American
race, and ber inexhaustible mines be made to give
up a portion ot tbeir treasures. A trans-conti-
neuial railroad would be built between New Orleans and San Diego in less than two years, (for
so long as the North and South can quarrel about
the nigger, tbey never can agree upon a route.)
aud the whole eastern portion of the western continent would look to us for the staples tbat we
would receive feom Japan and China, affording an
immense revenue to us. This may appear as a
wild dream, but stranger thingshave happened,
aud nothing is too wild for reality.
ANOÍSÜR  DEKD  ok BLOOD.
Ou last Saturday evening our city was the scene
of another deed of blood—one more sent in
baste to swell the ranks of that large army that
has already fallen victims to the deep agony of a
jealous distempered imagination. The victim was
named Caroline F. Park, a bright mulatto, residing in the family oí Mr. F. A. Woodwortb, and he
who committed the foul deed was Jonn Clarksou,
a deeply-colored individual, who was engaged to
be married to the girl. On tne evening iu question be visited the girl and seemed to enjoy bim-
Belf hugely in her presence, until another "negro
made his appearance, wheu he walked up to his
lady-love aud, putting his arm around her neck,
pulled a razor Irom bis pocket, and without utter-
log a otalgia ivuiu. cub uci iii.oai nom eat to ear,
partially severing ber chin. Tbe girl broke away
Irora bim and ran tor a distance of a couple of
hundred yards, and fell dead. Tue negro murderer
as apprehended and locked up. He seemed only
sorry that he bad not killed his rival.
F'LIBUSTEHIXG NOT  DBAD YET.
Although tbe great master-spirit of the filibustering raid died tu the person of Geu. Walker,
there seems to be still some others left who are
wiling to follow in his footsteps—to avenge bis
death ; aud I bave reliable information which
warrants me in asserting tbat at no distant day
auotber attempt will be made to wrest Nicaragua
from its present possessors.
BÍIS   KIl.WCLIt:   A   VAN'j'iJRIEHE.
Our local aulborities have commenced a war of
extermination upou that unfortunate class of c;
terers to the baser passions of man, by indicting a
couple ol score us common prostitutes. How it
will end I cannot Bay—perbapaasall similar wars,
by lioing ibe guilty oue?, who will pay thuir lines
and enjoy auotber year's immunity irom arrest.

Replication off "Vox Popall " to (lie Southern
News.
Editor Star :   My original   intention of following up and reviewiug tbe report of Ihe Grand
Jury has been somewhat disturbed by a "leader1'
¡ which appeared it) ibe last number ol the  South-
, cm AeW&, that, no doubt was intended as a reply
to my lust; and,  in   consequence  thereof,   I turn
: aside   for   tiie   nurpuse ol administering a whole-
■ some little drubbing to tbe aforesaid ¡=heet  for its
[interference--¡a doing which I will not forfeit my
f respect by indulging in any innuendo.    What
I have   to say, I'll   say,   barm whom it may.    No
ne allusions shall enter into this article.    It t
think that an individual has been  guilty of falsehood   or  improper  conduct,  whether  lie   bu  the
keeper of a public seal or not, I will charge the
lie or improper conduct  upon  bim—and   defend
that charge anywhere aud under  all   circumstan-
SuCh was tlie character of the  article  tbat
M'ciseil the A'ews as to call forth  the  rejoinder that I am now about to reply to.
Weak-minded individuals who happen to get
he worst of au argument in a newspaper contro-
ersy, invariably cry out and inveigh against personalities, scurrility and abuse—calling independence scurrility, and truth abuse. Il individuals,
acting publicly in the community, have been guilty of questionable acts, uo matter if they are
Grand Jurors, Assessors, or any other public officers, let them be shown up ; let the truth be told
a ; let tbeir acts be canvassed, and, if necessary, let their names be told without stint or
¿ear. This belongs to the duty of a bold journal"
st; but it does not belong to him to refer to ■' an
official ofthe county," ''as we understand"—
plainly intimating a charge, but not daring to
ake it.
To my task.    The only paragraph  worthy   of
note is as follows :
The cause which drew forth this production
of broken and disjointed sentences, was tbe fact
that au attempt was made by an official of the
county, as we understand, to present the County
Assessor and his deputy to the Grand Jury, hop-
to kick up a row, under the county sea!, which
would drive those gentlemen back into the smuggling ranks, iu which they, aB honorable men, had
refused to train; as, also,"to intimidate tbe people
into the payment of a,n unequal, and, of course,
an unjust fax. This document of presentation,
under seal, was, as we are credibly informed,
withdrawn by the District'AUoniey, though not
until some progress bad been made Iu tbe matter
by the jury ; thus leaving the investigation general iu relation to couuty officials. Further iuves-
t¿gation found the Board of Equalization, and
others, culpable in what they sought to lay at
at tbeir neighbor's door."
Tbe attempt at criticism I will hardly notice;
but I will deal with tbe iuuuendo—the stroke iu
the dark—first translating the -meaning intended
to be conveyed, which is as follows : Ttiat, heretofore, in the county of Los Angeles, John W. Shore,
County Clerk, and the only county officer having
charge of a seal, sent lo the Grand Jury certain
charges against, the County Assessor of said county, which the G.and Jury considered fallacious
and untiue, and dismissed tbe same ; that the said
Shore, County Clerk, as aforesaid, and having a
seal, did this, not lor any good intent, but to persecute llie said Assessor ; and that, iu doing so, he
(the said Shore) performed an act culpable in the
extreme. This is about what the foregoing para
graph was intended to say ; and I place in au intelligible form, in order to be able to answer it.—
The truth of the matter is simply as follows : On
tbe 10th of November last, the Board of Supervi
,dopted the following  preamble and resolu
you lor good. I am aware that I am probably
doing wrong in replying to you at all. If I am,
I am wrong in a good cause ; for I'll heap up
proofs upon you as long as you continue to utter
your cry of persecution ; I'll make this community
see where lies (he persecution and the true wrong.
If you can prove by facts or argument the charges
you make, wdiy don't you go about ¡tí Simply,
because you cannot do it. You don't know where
to commence, anymore than did th» Grand Jury.
But you can gabble—so could they, and so likc-
ise can geese.
Of you, Mr. Editor of the STAR, I have to crave
...i indulgence for pursuing this matter to so great
a length, instead of following my original intent;
so good bye.       Yours, Vox Fofuli.

A. D. 1850, to the undersigned, under the bounty
land act of 1847, Land Warrant Certificate, number 69,738, for 160 acres of land, Ior üervicea rendered in the War with Mexico, aa a Private in

" Whereas, The Assessor of this county has
failed fo make a lawful return to the proper officer of the supplemental assessment roll, for the
year ISM ; therefore,
■' Resolved, That the District Attorney be, and
beis hereby, instructed to inquire into the mutter,
and all other things connected with the assessment for the year 18C0 ; and if, in his judgment,
it be necessary, he is hereby authorized to commence suiis in the name of the people, against, the
Assessor and his bondsmen, ior whatever amount
that may have been lost to the county oi Los An
gules and the State of California, by reason of
said Assessor's failure to perform the duties of his
office.
'■Resolved, further, That the said District Attorney be instructed to make examination into the
accounts of all officers charged with the duty of
collecting and disbursing public revenue, and
make report to this Board of the condition of the
business of ail such officers.
Resolved, That a copy of the above resolutions
be transmitted to the District Attorney by tbe
Clerk of this Board."
Now, in obedience to the foregoing, the Clerk
transmitted a certified copy of the same io tbe
District Attorney, vjjiixtng ¿its seal to it. This is
the sum ofthe sin—this ie the act performed
d to the d:ve condemnation of ¡he County
Cierk. The Southern JVews considered it incumbent to say something about somebody, and so
tbey picked upon the Bi ]mK of the Board, or his
seat.   Is the Secretary ot the Senate  and Clerk
The Sbtbbs of Charity thank their friends of
San Pedro, for contributions amounting to one
hun ircd and six dollars.
the Assembly responsible for the acts performed
tht; Legislature?    No.
Now, gentlemen ol the A'ews, these are the
facts of the case, which yon might have found
out, had you desired it. But no—facts are not
what you desire to deal with; misrepresentation
is your forte. You make assertions that you don't
expect to prove—that you know cannot be substantiated when you make them ; and you make
¡.hem, as I said before, in such a manner that the
party aimeved has no remedy but to remain silent. For iustance. you mention no names, and.
if that is not excuse sufficient, you fall back upou
the "we are informed." And yet you have the
impudence to. talk of abuse aud scurrility
Kfiugh ! it is enough to make my gorge rise, even
to contemplate such mendacity !
You still continue to ring tbe charges about i
equality of the valuations of property, chargii
that tbe assessments of tbe rich men are top   loi
and those of the poor met), business men, mecha
ios, laborers, &c., are too  high.    I intend  to   e
amine this matter ; and, in order to do so, it wi
be necessary to examine into piivate transaction
that are matters  of public record.    I   will   take
the case of the proprietors of the Southern Arews.
and see if their property was valued at moce than
it was worth : By the records in the office of the
County Recorder, I And that on the 10th day of
Match, A. D. 1800. you bargained for the material
of your office, at tiie sum of twelve  hundred dollars; on the Kith day of July of tbe  same year,
you swore before the  Deputy  County Assessor
that the same property, together with all of your
oilier cueces, boiti reai ana personal, was worth
but pour hundred poiT.ARS !    What a falling off
was there, in tbe short space of four mouths and
six days !
How like you that last "disjointed sentence"—
touched on the raw, no? Scurrilous and abusive,
eh? But it is true, nevertheless, eveu if "Vox
Pop-Udi" did say it.    Deny ii if you can.
Now, Mr. Artuis, if you, mechanic, laborer,
bnsin ss man, or whatever you may be, are entitled
to give in yor propeny at one-third of its valuation, why should not Abel Stearns, John Temple,
or Wm. Wolfskill be entitled to the same privilege?. Tiie priucipie is the same. If printing
material depreciates in value as yours has done,
(for I wouid not charge that you were guilty of
false swearing, in presence of your God aud country,) by reason of dull times and se;ireif.y of money, why shculd not cattle and vineyards also de
precíale just a little—say a couple or three dolíais per head for cattle and a trifle for land; and.
having so depreciated, why should the owners of
that class of property not be entitled to a reduction before the Equalizers ? Why should they be
bound by the opinion of an Assessor !••> to valuations, who never owned a hoof or vine, nor paid a
cent of public revenue? Who h¡ts only his ten
dollars per day for services in view.
Oh, the Assessor is a nice fellow, to let us off
on the valuation of our material ; but if the Board
of Equalisation abates one jot or tittle (rom the
assessment of our neghbor, then curses on them.
You staud like jackalls, hoping that iu the light
now progressing a carcass may oe slain, and that
the victor may not have capacity to consume it
all, when you may be allowed to partake.
With a few lines more, aud I'll  have done with
Kobe.t Hende.

Tub What Ciiker House.—The What Cheer
House, that human hive, and transient home of the
miner in San Francisco, as well as two or three hnn
dred artisans, ha.s undergone a wonderful transmogrification since 1'Yii.hiv night last, the whole western
''ai.!union," as it is termed, having been literally
gutted and abandoned by the indefatigable Mr
Woodward. So rapid and wo.iderfiil has been this
change (hat those who see it are almost inclined to
believe the "Arabian Nights." It appears that ilv.
R. E. Woodward, the proprietor of the What Cheer
leased the ¡and upon which the western portion of
the house has been erected, from Messrs Cook F
thers, in 1853, the lease stipulating that Mr. Woodward should be legal proprietor oí any improvement
lie might, make thereon. It turns out, however, that
the land was in dispute between Cook Brothers and
Messrs. Theodore Payne and Squire P. Dewey, and
a recent decision has been rendered in favor of the
last named claimants, who refuse to recognize the
validity of the terms between Mr. Woodward and
Cook ¿Brothers, at the same time getting out a writ
of ejectment, which was served upon Mr. Woodward by the Sheriff. No sooner said than done, M
Woodward clapped on a couple of hundred hands,
gutted the house iu an incredible short space of time
and left the bare walls alone to represent a place s<
late teeming with life. Immense boilers, the whol
of a large bakery, the furnishing of a monster
dining room, the kitchen and it ranges, even the
gas piijes have been removed and stored in other
b\i.¡diii¡>3. We very much mistake Mr W^-i-
11- nú uwo iiuu cum vertí tus present annoyance in
source of future profit, and establish his famous
What Cheer establishment upou a grander and more
acceptable scale than ever.—Herald.
