The Skating Rink was first opened last night under its new auspices.

The hall was quite well filled with a very genteel house, all of whom seemed to enjoy the exercise. Mr. Gray, the new manager, was all kindness and attention, and it seems not unlikely that the pleasant times of old under Mr. Bent are again with the young people. Many were the tumbles received, but the recipient as soon recovered and was himself again.

Our enterprising friends of the Clarendon, though disappointed by the weather in fully carrying out the splendid programme they had prepared on the days advertised, are yet determined that the races shall be a success, and announce that they will on Monday and Tuesday complete the races so well begun on Thursday. Monday at 1 o'clock P. the first race announoed for Fritlay will come off. It is a mile dash for a purse of $100, free to all except Irene Harding.

On Tuesday at 1 at. the grand feature of the meeting, the bad lea' Phieton race comes off. Many of our fair friends who are adepts at handling the ribbons, are expecting to take part in the contest, and we can assure the public that this race alone will be well worth a visit to the park. Following at two, the scarcely less exciting Hurdle race of one mile over four hurdles, for a purse of $25, will take place. The entrance fee is $10, to go with the purse, second horse to save his entrance, each horse to carry 150 pounds; free to all.

The third and last is a trotting race, three in five, to harness, free to all horses that have never beaten three minutes, for a purse of $100. $75 to first horse, and $25 to second. A splendid hand lias been engaged for the occasion, and will enliven the meeting with appropriate music. The track is in magnificent condition, the recent showers have freshened up the face of nature, and cleared the atmosphere, and with fair ladies, gallant men, and prancing steeds to enliven tiie scene, there can be no doubt that the Park will be the center of attraction. The men of the Clarendon know how to keep a hotel, ami from the way they start out, we are confident that they are also equal to the task of providing a flrst-elass entertainment for all who enjoy the excitement of the race-track.

OUR BUSINESS HOUSES. THU CK.HHO (iOKDO HREIOHTINO COMtax v. Every day our readers notice in the Herald the arrival of teams from (Vrro Gordo with bullion, and their departure for that place and Lone Pint, laden with goods, hut few of them arc aware of the extent of this business. Under the careful management of Mr. Ntuleau the Cerro Gordo Ing Company have established a regular line of heavy wagons for the transportation of freight, and every day two ponderous teams leave our city loaded with general merchandise, while two arrive loaded with bullion.

These teams consist of from twelve to fourteen mules attached to two heavy wagons coupled together, one behind tlie other. The load is from three and a half to four tons for each wagon, or from seven to eight tons for each team, so that the daily receipts of bullion by this line is fifteen or sixteen tons. To maintain regular arrivals and departures, it takes forty-oight regular teams, besides six or eight extras, that make side trips, or fill the place of a disabled team. The distance from Los Angeles to Cerro Gordo is about 22') miles, and eleven stations are maintained, at all of which goods are delivered, and also to Lone Pine und Independence. Three companies are now engaged in producing the bullion, and as they are extending their works, and increasing the product, the freighting company will soon add to their present force, as they are even now unable to get the bullion away as fast as it accumulates.

The company have a large establishment in this city, employing ten men constantly in making and repairing their wagons. They keep a force of ovor 75 men and 800 animals employed in the freighting business, and taken altogether, their business is as important to the interests of Los Angeles, as an ordinary railroad would be. Forming the only means of communication with one of the richest miming regions in the State, and bringing to the city one of its most valuable articles of export, the operations and success of this extensive company are a source of pride to the whole community. Mr. It.

Nadeau, the principal stockholder, is a resident of this city, and to his intelligent supervision aiid untiring energy the prosperity of the company is largely due. The other members of the company, we believe, reside in San Francisco. Late Telegrams. EASTERN. CHICAGO.

The same dispatch says a letter was received here this evening from a gentleman now a resident of Baltimore, but formerly a clerk in the employ of General George W. Bullock, Chief Disbursing Officer ot the Freetlman's Bureau under Howard. The writer of the letter says it was his duty while in the service of the Bureau to examine vouchers each and every month, and also to make out the pay rolls.

He avers that horses and carriages for the private use of General Howard and members of his staff and summer vacations favorite clerks, including their traveling expenses, were provided and paid for wit money belonging to tlie Government. Tho wife of Captain Sladen, a member of Howard's staff, was put on the pay rolls under her maiden name; that Howard's coachman was put on the pay rolls, as was also the wife of one Captain Girard, while she had no appointment and did no duty whatever. In conclusion he states thero are many other irregularities which ought to be made public, and he volunteers to give his testimony before the committee at any time. Chicago, Jan. 2.

Scott was addressed recently on the subject of the affairs of the Texas Pacific railroad, by citizens of San Diego, through their agents in this city.

The people of San Diego were alarmed lest an extension of time should be asked for tlie completion of the work in progress at the Pacific terminus. They were also anxious to learn the prospect for legislation by Congress in the interests of the Company. Colonel Scott authorized sending in his name yesterday, the following dispatch: "Prospects for legislation good. No extension will be asked for." "It is understood no definite form of action has yet been agreed upon, but a number of bills are in aourse of preparation, to be submitted to him for approval. The main object in each, is to provide means to obtain government aid in disposing of Railroad Bonds, and to secure the government for all disbursements.

It is authoritively stated that the Northern Pacific has agreed to leave the field to the Southern Pacific, at least for the present season. Embezzlement. Cincinnati, Jan. 15. ().

The Reformed Kniwcounl Church.

Regular services of the Reformed Episcopal Church will begin in Steinway Hall to-morrow. Bishop Cumunins will preach. The Bishop says it would be premature to give in detail the names of well known laymen and clergymen, of this city, who may he expected to give in their adhesion to the new church, but there is abundant proof that the Spirit of considerable portions of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in New York is ripe for this departure. The accession of the Rev. Dr.

(Joddard, Rector of one of the largest and most importunt churches on Staten Island is a good sign. Numerouslettersfrom clergymen of other denominations, expressing a reatliness to take part in the work have been received.

Weaver said, "All right, I am ready to die, and tlie sooner the better; I know there is no hope." He went firmly to the scaffold and up tlie steps. As the cap was about to be put on, he remarked, "Let It ho off." Rut his request was not granted. After a few words of consolation from Rev.

George Cline, the mail carrier, started on his downward trip witli the mail from Lake City to Redding, leaving Btirkettsville on Monday at noon; before starting, Jim Moore and two others entrusted to his care with which to pay their taxes. A man named John Baker saw the money paid to him, and knowing the route ho would take, started out from Btirkettsville a few hours in advance of Cline. Baker had crossed the bridge a short time before ('line's arrival. The latter told the bridgeke he was afraid all was not right; tint he thought Baker was after him an 1 would scalp him. The keeper told lie would loan him a pistol; he did not take it, but mounted his horse and rode on.

After riding a couple of miles, Baker had stopped, it is supposed, for Cline to overtake him, which he did, and it is supposed they rode on together. The horse that Cline rode was shod, while Baker's was not. On Wednesday morning Cline was found lying dead at the side of the road, with a bullet hole through his head, his pockets turned inside out, and his horse close by with the mail bag untouched. When found, the horse refused to bo led away, but was finally led off. After going a short distance he broke away and ran back to the dead body of his rider.

A Coroner's jury was summoned and was in session when the mail left. Baker was arrested at his father's house on Hat Creek, and heavily ironed. The citizens wish to get more positive proof; should they be convinced as to his guilt he will be hung by the mob. Cline was a young man of good character ami standing in the community. His parents reside at Humboldt Bay.

He had been on this mail route but a few months. MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH. San Francisco llonrtl or llrokers. MOBXUra koAkii.

An Agricultural Fair. The Grangers in District Council assembled with the Los Angeles Grange, yesterday, and had a very important and harmonious session.

The chief matter under discussion was the establishment of an Agricultural Exposition for Southern California. It was resolved to form an Association with a capital of $50,000, divided into 2,000 shares, each share representing $25. Articles of incorporation were adopted, and other arrangements for perfecting the organization made. The following Directors were named: J. F.

Marquis, J. J. Morton, J. A. Nichols! L.

W. Atchinson, J. T. Gordon, J. Q.

A. Stanley, J. 8. Thomson, E. Ever, J.

E. McComas. H. L. Montgomery, A.

Hayward. The name of the organization is "The Agricultural Exposition of Southern California." Nearly the entire day was passed in making these arrangements, and in planning and preparing for the new organization. It was made known that Mr. Bixby had proposed to donate 80 acres of land tor the use of the Association, if the buildings would be located on the grounds. Other parties made statements of the same nature, but the location of tlie grounds is hereafter to be determined by the board of directors.

This is a very important movement to the agricultural interests of Southern California. It bids fair to give an exposition which shall fully represent the products and resources of this section of ihe State. Already in this county there are hard upon one thousand grangers; they are from the steady, well-to-do, industrious classes, and if they all put their shoulders to the wheel, all interested in farming will be benefitted.
