A SENATORIAL CAREER AT AN ESD-At mid
night last night c.Jsed the legal session of the
Thirty-ninth Congress, and with it terminated
the Senatorial career of James A. McDougall
Senator from California. We need reflect upon
his career as Representative no further than to
say that he has disgraced our State, and in no
manner has proved anything but reflex of a
Democratic minority. He is man of talent,
ever brilliant; and, when elected, was sl expo
nent of the prevailing sentiment of the State
but savish attachment to that which "imbrutes
the intellect and destroys every perception OF
right, rendered him an easy prey of false per-
ceptions, and for the past FIVE years he has gross
ly misrepresented his constituents. We deplore
his fate-that Of many man of genius-yet, in
his successor we feel secure that the rectitude
of intention the former has lost will never give
US occasion for regret.-Stochton Independent.

CREDIT TO THE CoUNTY.-A look through

boast similar institution more complete in ev-
cry department, in fact we don't believe thatthe
curing business is more Systematically or neatly
done anywhere in the State of California. We
saw there eight tons Of lard in cans securely seal
ed and ready for market. To give some idea of
the business done by them in that lne it is on
ly necessary to state that about one hundred and
twenty thousand pounds of hams and bacon have
already been taken from the smoke-house, and
that in the salt-house some fifty thousand pounds
more await the smoking process. Trinity peo-
pie do not require to be told that the meats cur

JUNCTION Cry Vestges of the flush times
of 40 are still visible at Junction City," remark
ed friend who tarried there one night this week,
and there is truth IN the remark. Ten years ago,
when there were more people-a different class
of people-there, one tradlng-p post could barely
subsist. Now there three, where everything
required by an improved population can be had.
Money is not exactly drug, yet there is enough
for necessary purposes, and in every branch of
business activity prevails. We feel warranted
in saying that there are more good paying mining
claims in the vicinity of junction City than any
other point in the county. One reason may be
that there is a good supply of water at this sea-
son of the year, yet more could be advantage
ously used. 1t is not our intention to particu-
larize, but to simply state that Junction City is
just now one of the liveiest points in the coun-
ty, and to our notion will continue so for some
time to

Works LIKE CHARM.-W Wherever thus far
primary meetings have been conducted under the
provisions of Porter's Primary law, the result
has been entirely satisfactory. The Union Cen
trail Committee of this county will be called to-
gether in short time, and unless we are great
ly mistaken in the men who compose it, will
unanimously recommend its use in conducting
the approaching primaries. If it is a good and
beneficial law, As is alleged in the localities where
it has been tested, there is no reason why its
adoption should be delayed until next year or
the year after. We are decidedly in favor of it,
and if the Central Committee decide in favor of
using it, the people of the county will be allow
ed an opportunity of ascertaining just what its
provisions are through the columns of this paper.

Conservative triumph in West Virginia.

The Lancaster pa Atelligencer says that
'in spite of the registration frauds, the test
oath denominations, the system of proscriptive
legislation and the whole machinery of the Rad
ical fabric, which was SO cunningly devised for
the purpose of keeping the white people of
West Virginia in state Of political bondage,
the oppressor's chain is being broken. The
Radical paupers who have been fattening on
public plumber are being driven out of Office by
anindignant populace, and the Radicalimbeciles
who have aspired to become great through the
disfranchisement of the white citizens are all
likely soon to find their dirty level. The details
of the recent elections held there show that a
majority of those who have been sufficiently
loyal to register and VOTE are disguised with
the baseness of the Radical adventures who
have assumed to be the party leaders. Taxa
ton, proscrptive legislation, negro equality, and
Foreman Governor of West Virginia, SO called
are doing the work. The State promises to as
sert its freedom from such base thraldom right
speedily. God speed her noble population in
the good work

In view of the inexcusable apathy Of the bet.
ter portion of our people, and the thorough or
ganization of the Radicals and Freedmen, we
think the elections in this State will be very
close and the result extremely doubtful. This
apprehension is confirmed by the confidence Of
Senator Wilson In speech delivered by him
in the African Church in Richmond on Wed
nesday night last, be said:
II have no time now, Mr.. Chairman, to ut
ter my sentiments at length, but can only refer
to the record left on trip from Orange Court
house to New Orleans, to which every one can
refer. [ must, however, congratulate you up
on the absolute certainty of the fact that the
State Of Virginia will be carried by an over
whelming vote for the great Republican party.
All doubt in the minds of men North and South
are now removed, and [ wish the prediction
noted that the State will elect Convention OF
uncompromising Radicals, change the Constitu-
ton, conform it to the will Of Congress, elect q
Republican Governor, Legislature, and a ma:
jority of the members of Congress. The OLD
Dominion in this year Of our Lord 1867 will
place herself fairly and squafeiy by the side o.
New England, the Central States, and the great
Northwest, in the foremost rank of the army OF
freedom, equal rights, justice, and humanity.

The Army Worm.

Last week, we gave some account of the re-
markable worms which are devouring the leaves
of forest trees in the vicinity of Staunton, and
which we designated "army worms" We are
now satisfied that they are not the army worm
which has frequently been so destructive in the
Northwestern States, but a species of caterpil-
lar differing in appearance and habit from the
kind which infests our orchards The army
worm $50 called is described as smooth skinned,
resembling the grub worm somewhat and de-
vouring grass wheat, oats and other crops, but
never eating the leaves of trees. The horde of
worms, or caterpillars, which has appeared
amongst us is certainly an unusual and remark
able visitation. It has now advanced to the
West View turnpike.

One Day.

Some may say, says the Norfolk K~ginian,
that they will lose days work by waiting hour
after hour for their turn to be registered. This
may be true in many cases, for the business
promises to be slow and tedious to all concern;
ed Some CT us may even lose more than that
though this is not a reasonable probability bui
what is one days work to a lawyer, merchant
or mechanic in comparison to the many days
work we shall all lose if we refuse to register?
The man who stays away from the place Of
registry in his District will do the worst days
work for himself, his wife and his children, Or
if unmarried, for his friends and family that he
ever did in his life. Take one day, if necessary
more, in order to save all the future days which
stretch out before you.

The following are the ONLY classes of persons
disfranchised, according to General Schofeld' S
order No. "a:

States all who have been at any time mem
bers Of the Legislature, Governor, Lieutenant

Nor are these officers disfranchised UNLESS,
while in Office or afterwards, they engaged in
instruction or rebellion against the United

thereof. General Schofeld, in his order, says:
"NO ONE is DISFRANCHISED FOR
PARTICIPATION IN THE REBELLION
UNLESS HE PREVIOUSLY HELD SOME
ONE OF THE OFFICES ABOVE
NAMED"
Some people think they are disfanchised
because they participated in the rebellion, but
this is a mistake, unless they previously held
some of the above named offices.
