Jlrtalci CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1875. Immigration. As the Winter begins to break the number of passengers on the overland route, as well as by the Isthmus, increases. There has been a tremendous effort to induce immigration to this side of the continent.

The motive that induced this effort was commendable, but we fear that there was much zeal aud but little knowledge mingled with the effort, aud the result may be disappointment and great suffering to many. There, have been tons of ten aud printed matter sent East to enlighten the inhabitants of the snowclad hills and ice-bound vales in regard to the advantages of our tunny clime, invigorating air and blooming gardens. We can well imagine the effect of such tidings to a shivering population who have never kuown aught but to work hard five months to keep themselves warm the other seven. They are ready to make any sacrifice to get to a laud of perpetual sunshine. The result is, we are informed that not less than seventy-flve thousand will come to this coast next Summer, aud perhaps as many during the Fall.

We have room for them, provided, Ist, they are pleased; 2d, that they have means to procure homes and comforts. These two items are always requisite to good citizenship in California. We are free to say that this is the best country we ever saw where these two requisites are on hand. But if the poor and destitute suppose that they will be clothed and fed by the benevolent population of California they are very much mistaken. There are as many of that class here now as can be provided for.

All the loose boulders of gold have disappeared long ago, and the old plan of eating your bread in tbe sweat of your face holds good here as in other countries. We advise all to come who have means to situate themselves if they like, and if they do not like, to get away with. In a word we want immigration, but we want an independent immigration that can leave if they don't like the country. There is perhaps as much benevolence here as in other countries, but the old mining population whose charities were as bountiful as the sunshine, have passed away and their places rilled by men of quick business habits, with no time and but little inclination to hunt up objects of charity. If you come here with means plenty, you can drop into the current and keep up if you if you come here without means you will be elbowed out aud must shift for yourself.

The climate, the soil and the health of the country is all and even more than is claimed for it, but it is a hard country for men without means to get a start. These are facts, and it is better that the poor know them before they make the venture to brake up and come here. We know that these remarks will awaken the inquiry as to the cause why so good a country should not be a good place for poor men. One sentence will solve the whole question. The Chinaman does much of the work iv California, that poor men do in other countries.

St. Patrick. To-day a large number of our fellow citizens of Irish nationality will celebrate the anniversary of Ireland's patron saint, aud a few words this morning relative to St. some account of his history, will not be inappropriate. St.

Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, was born, according to the most reliable authorities, near the site of Kilpatrick, at the mouth of the Clyde, in Scotland, in the year 320. He died at Down, Ulster, about the year 464, aged 92 years. History tells us that when about 16 years of age he was carried to Ir land as tiie captive of a band of marauders, but after living with his captors some six months he made his escape and returned to Scotland. Shortly after he was captured a second time and again escaping he decided within himself to become a missionary to the Irish people. Acting upon this resolution he was ordained in Scotland and after a long preparation spent in the most devoted study he was consecrated Bishop.

According to the most authentic accounts after visiting Gaul and Italy he passed to Ireland, his self-chosen field of labor, about the year 432. He was then in his sixtieth year, and his preaching and gospel teaching had sucli an extraordinary effect that, although not absolutely the first to introduce Christianity into that country, to him has always been awarded the honor and credit of its general conversion. It was St. Patrick who converted and baptized the Kings of Dublin and Munster, and also the seven sons of the King of Counaught, together with the great majority of their subjects. Before his death Sr.

Patrick converted almost the whole island to the faith. We have the testimony of St. that he fixed his Metropolitan See at Armagh, and it appears that he appointed several other Bishops with whom he held councils to settle the discipline of the church which he had planted and fostered. History, not cotemporaneous, however, tells us that in his old age he wrote what is tensed his confession, the authenticity of which, however, it is proper to state, ia doubted. The Roman Catholic Church keeps his festival on the 17th of A legend more popular than authentic, ascribes to sr.

PATRICK the banishment Of all venomous reptiles from Ireland by means of his crosier or staff, which, as late as 1360 was still to be seen and greatly venerated at Dublin. How much of this is true and how much of it mere mystic legend we do not know nor do wish to know. Nothing can he more certain than that a great and good man known as St. Patrick lived in Ireland at some remote period and a sit cannot be doubted that he lived for the good of bit fellow men, it is but right and proper that Irish born men and women and all others who feel so inclined should celebrate his anniversary. A Word to Parents.

One of the worst animals that is permitted in roam over this world's surface is bad boy. He is a daily torture to hla little sister and a plague to the Neighborhood. We like to give the boys a chance. As a rule, there is a great deal of outcome in them. One of the worst boys we ever saw lived to be an editor, but the seeds of early lilt- finally took root and he relapsed, weni to the State Legislature and on down, until the last we heard of him he was in Congress.

And it is not always the good little boys that make the best men. A nice little boy who never would steal apples, grew up to be a man, went into merchandising, broke three times, paid nothing on ilie dollar, retired rich, and is now a shining light in one of San Franc most fashionable churches. Still a H-ioti- and dishonest boy is not the mosl -liable starter for a man. And at) ewryimdy, including parents, industrial school managers anil city prison keepers know this to be a fact, we regret iv have to announce that Los Angeles is just now pretty well stocked with the bad boy element. A letter before us at this moment contains the information that then is a considerable number of boys, ranging in age from five to fifteen years, banded togel her in this city, who do not hesitate lo scale fences, steal fruit, break down irees and do other mischief of a serious character.

Unless the parents and guardians of these youths are careful, not a single one of them will ever become angels unless the transformation comes after years of preparation in the workshops of San Qentiti. Seriously, people who have boys should look after them a little more assiduously, and if possible sever their connection with the many bad examples that disgrace our city. Remember that as the twig is bent, the tree inclines. Communists. It HMHertwl that there are 10,000 of this order in Philadelphia.

Their lodges are held in secret and they are rapidly increasing. Thousands of buildings were secretly marked in one night in that city. This, with other mysterious signs, has caused great alarm. That there is a strong tendency to agrarianism throughout the United States and all over the world is evident. It is deplorable, nevertheless it is true, and we may as well look the evil in the face at once and if possible devise means to avert it.

"Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn." It is this inhumanity or heartlessness of the rich toward the poor, together with the corruption and oppressiveness of governments, that increases the tendency towards communism. All governments are now educating the masses, and their intelligence makes them feel more keenly the degradation and misery that poverty entails. Education increases the usefulness and happiness of man, provided his moral culture is equal to his intellectual; but governments generally, and especially the United States, have prohibited all religious culture in public schools, and the consequence is we have raised and are raising a race of giants in intellect, butLillaputians in morals. They have no moral force to bear misfortune and endure the hardships of life. They are like ships at sea with full sail aud no ballast, liable to capsize in a light gale.

Man by nature is a religious animal, and when this moral or religious nature is properly cultivated it is the ballast that holds him steady when the storms of affliction and disappointment are blowing heavy upon him. The religious element of the country wants no division of property, no uprooting of society. They think and feel that "it is not the whole of life to live." Although we make no pretensions to piety, we are ready to pay this tribute to religion, and we believe the children of the nation would be as good patriots aud as good citizens if they had more moral culture. But how can it be done in a land of a hundred religious? It would be a difficult matter to bring religion into public schools, yet a code of morals could be taught under the head of moral science by which the patience, benevolence, brotherly kindness and charity of every child could be greatly strengthened. The oppressiveness of tin Government is another evil which is very grinding upon all classes aud causes feelings of desperation to creep over weak humanity to a very demoralizing extent.

This can and must be remedied speedily, or we shall witness a terrible state of affairs before long. We have uo disposition to dictate to men of capital, but if they can so invest their means as to give honest occupation to thelaboriag classes they will add much to the moral strength of the A. W.

WAsHinoton, March President Wilson has written a loug letter coneerninEr his casting vote on the Bounty bill. He endorses the bill, aud says it could not have taken from the Treasury over in all, and not over ten or twelve millions for the next two years. The Secretary of State to-day sent to thu Senate the correspondence with the Spanish Government on matters conuected with the Virginius indemnity. Spain sonsents to all the claims of the 1 nited States and agrees to pay 180,000 In gold unconditionally, to be distributes by tbe United States, our Government not to be accountable to Spain for sums not aged by the heirs or families of the victims.
