A slight sulphuric smell was perceptible in the atmosphere for a few minutes after the explosion. There is to be a special meeting of the Pickwick Club, this evening, at the usual place. MAIL ROUTE.—Official information has been received from the Postmaster General that, by an Act of Congress passed February 28th, 1871, a Postroad or mail route was established between Anaheim and San Bernardino.
