New MAI. ROUTE TO WEAvERvILLE.-We un-
dersiand that Charles Mclaughlin received in
teligence from Washington by the last mail,
informing him of the establishing of a mail route
between Petaluma and Weavervlle, Trinity Co.,
and that the contract for carrying the mails had
been awarded to him. The route, we understand,
will be direct, via Eden Valley. We make this
announcement with much pleasure regarding the
matter, as we do to be one of more than common
interest to our county and to our town. as IL Will
most certainly result in demonstrating the truth
of our former assertions that the best and by far
the shortest route between San Francisco and
Weaverville is via Petaluma. This fact being
once clearly and satisfactorily proven it will not
be long before we shall enjoy large and lucra'
tive trade with that section of the State.-Petd'

Anything, for q change, say we. On that one
point we are completely sick of talking, and
having others talk to us. Hardly week passes
but some one importunes the JOURNAL to Z" pitch
into" the mail contractors post masters, post
Office department, or some other source, for non
compliance with duty or contract. If the mail
can be transported from Petauma to Weaver
Vile, over mountains and through snow banks
on horseback, in week or ten days provided
that is the time specified for its transportation, II
will be an Improvement on the manner in which
il ia done now The fact is that our mail facill
ties at present are no better If as good as they
were four years ago Then the mail came tri-
weekly now il comes semi-weekly or semi -occa-

VINO WILL SUCCEED GwIN-In relation to the
election of United States Senator, the Sacra-
mento Bee lately said
If the Douglas men shall not have majority
in both branches of the Legislature that fact
will fall heavily on the Senatorial aspirations Of
such meu as Denver, McDougall and Hoge ; for
no Republican would aid any of them to a seat
in the Senate, and the Breckenridge men, whom
they abandoned but yesterday, as it we're, will
not lift finger in their behalf These men, and
such as these, must rely solely on the Anti-Le-
compton strength for support. and much of that
will, we are confident, be a broken reed in their
hands But it is an i'll wind that blows nobody
good, and this condition of things will benefit
Randolph, McCorke, Conness, and such like
who have stood by the party through good aud
through evil report, as they may be able, In a
certain contingency, to get Republican votes
while, as matters now stand, it is evident they
cannot obtain any aid from the Administration
party.
We heartily trust that if the Douglas members
cannot elect their man that Edmund Randolph
will be the one that the above stated " condition
of things will benefit" He is one OF California 8
brightest lights, and man who would do honor
to the State in that position. We believe Repub-
licans would favor his election.

CHARACTER OF WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.-The
New York World, in late number, says:
"Wiliam Cullen Bryant is one of the pnrest
minded characters, and has one of the most
enviable regulations in the country. He de-
servedly ranked as the first of our poets until he
almost ceased to write in verse, and allowed
Longfellow nearer to the summit OF Parnassus,
while he recned on the hill side, or rather
while he turned into n more rugged path
The best energies of his maturer years have been
given to the discussion of public questions, and
among all the able journalists his contemporaries,
there is not one, active or retired, living or
dead. who has succeeded in securing such uni
versal respect, while plunging, as Mr. Bryant al
ways has, into the tickest of the fight, and vigor-
ously assailing the opinions and measures OF
poltical opponeuts lie has never trod the
tortuous path of vulgar and crafty politicians ;
he has never descended to be the apologlst OF
abuses in his own party he has never hung
around lobbies or political conventions but his
whole influence both as man and journalist,
has been on the side of raight-iorward, robust
honesty in all public as well as in all private
matters. Holding himself aloof from scheming
cliques, and dealing with great principles, he has
had the forecastc to anticipate public opinion, OF
which he has been an inauential leader. Ills
whole career is standing contradiction to the
shallow notion that journalist cannot exert a
marked influence in politics. unless he is hand
and plove with the able rogues and lesser rogues
who pack caucuses and manipulate conventions.
The Egeainq Post under Mr.. Bryants manage
ment has always ranked as one of the very best
newspapers in the country, and the influence 1t
has eXerted has been due not more to the ability
and taste that have presided over its columns
than to its uncompromlslng honesty ana fearless
independence"

Nails In Fruit Trees

A singular fact. and one worthy to b,
recorded. was mentioned to us few dav-
since, by Mr.. Alexander Duke. of Albes
marie. He stated that while on a visit to
neighbor, his attention was called to n
peach orchard killed by the ravages of the
worm with the exception OF three, and these
were the most thrifty and Furnishing peach
trees he ever saw. The only cause of their
superiority known to the host was an ex-
pertinent made in consequence of deserving
that those parts of worm-eaten timber into
which nails have been driven were gener.
ally found. When his trees were abou.
year old. he drove tenpenny nail thro'
the body. as near tie ground as possible ::
while the balance of his orchard had gen.
orally failed. and finally yielded entirely
to the ravages of the worms, these three
trees, selected at ranlom. treated precisely
In the same manner with the exception of
the mailing, had always been healthy, fur
nish'ng him at the very period with the
greatest profusion of the most luscious
fruit 1t Is supposed that the salt of iron
Afforded by the nails is offensive to the
worm, while it is harmless, perhaps ben
ehcial to the tree
"A chemleal writer on the subject, saws:
THE oxydation or rusting of the iron by
the sap, evolves ammonia, which as the
sap rises will of course impregnate every
particle of the foliage, and proving too .e-
we're dose for the delicate palate of in.
truding insects"
The writer recommends driving half
dozen nails into the trunk. Several ex-
perimsuts of the kind have resulted sue
