PERDON At the regular meeting of the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco on Monday, Dr. A. W. Saxe, of Santa Clara, was called on to give his method of destroying the grape rot. He has been for some eight or nine years in the habit of treating his vines with a solution of sulphate of copper and water, in the proportion of 4 pounds to five gallons. It is applied to the vines before the buds are uncovered and just before the rains cease. At the same time, all the dead skin in the forks is removed with a small scraper. The solution is put on with a small swab, and as soon as the rain comes, it is carried all over the vine and thus effectually destroys any spores. The Doctor said that he had uniformly noticed that his vines, treated in this manner, did well, but that on two seasons, when he omitted the process, they were attacked by the fungus. A PETITION for the pardon of Deborgne M. Bennet, recently convicted of sending obscene literature through the mails, was recently forwarded to President Hayes, bearing the signatures of 130,000 persons. The President has referred the matter to United States Attorney Woodford for his opinion and report thereon. Most of the signers are residents of San Francisco. Bennet was sentenced in May to two years and six months imprisonment, and to pay a fine of $300. The New York Herald says: "San Francisco is not yet entirely rid of doubtful characters." NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. Red Bluff and its Industries—Graphic Illustration of the Evils of Land Monopoly. EDITOR GAZETTE: Since my former letter I have visited Red Bluff, Cherokee and Tehama, and having picked up a few crumbs of information that may prove of interest, submit them. Red Bluff, like Tehama, is situated on the banks of the Sacramento River, and being the county seat of Tehama county, will receive the first attention. It is pretty and advantageously located. They claim for it a less malarial climate on account of its somewhat elevated situation on the Bluff, but to an entirely disinterested individual, the croaking of the frogs is not more or less musical here than elsewhere in this grand old valley of the Sacramento. Red Bluff boasts a population of three thousand; its streets are broad but ill kept, and the cultivation of flowers and shrubbery is not so thorough or successful as at Chico. There is one public, two private schools and an academy. Its hotels, of which it numbers three, are abominable and not to be commended by anyone who desires a reputation for veracity. It is a depot for LUMBER, WOOL AND CEREALS. We find here a branch of the Sierra Lumber Co., of which there are three divisions; the Chico, Red Bluff (or Blue Ridge) and Seema. They procure their lumber from the Sierras, and furnish three varieties, Spruce, Fir and Pine. That from Red Bluff is shipped to Seema, thence to various points north and south. There is also wool growing, which, as an industry of Northern California, is immeasurably more extensive than is, I think, generally known. Among the most wealthy and prominent wool growers we find Cone, owner of thirty thousand sheep; Parker and Houghton, thirty thousand, and Rawson, twenty thousand. There is a wool press here owned by Cone. They separate, canal and press the wool, and ship it direct to Boston, at 28 cts. profit. Here we find also.

Bennet, recently convicted of sending obscene literature through the mails, was recently forwarded to President Hayes, bearing the signatures of 130,000 persons. The President has referred the matter to United States Attorney Woodford for his opinion and report thereon. Most of the signers are residents of San Francisco. Bennet was sentenced in May to two years and six months imprisonment, and to pay a fine of $300. The New York Herald says: "San Francisco is not yet entirely rid of doubtful characters. It has the honor of supplying more names than any other city to the petition for the release of a person convicted of sending obscene literature through the mails." Very little reliance can be placed upon these pro-miscuously-signed petitions. Several respectable citizens of Anaheim appended their names to the petition for Bennet's pardon, who, if they had known the true nature of the charge against him, would have indignantly refused to affix their signatures. Any man who publishes or circulates obscene matter ought to be imprisoned, and it is safe to say that 65,000 of the signers for Bennet's release hold to that opinion. The signatures were mostly obtained through fraud or downright misrepresentation. Chicago, July 23.—A distressing and mysterious double suicide occurred last night at Hyde Park, a southern suburb of this city, the particulars of which only transpired early this morning. Three maiden sisters, named Elizabeth, Anna and Nora Trobridge, aged respectively 43, 40 and 30 years, have been living for many years in good style in that town upon the revenues derived from an estate left them by their mother. Recently their father has succeeded in getting their entire property away and has left them penileless. When they became fully aware of this state of affairs they decided to die together, and spent Sunday and Monday in preparing for death. They nailed up the doors and windows, and the two eldest sisters, with the most careful preparation, drove spikes in either side of the casement of the folding doors, adjusted small hemp cords about their necks, and kicking from beneath their feet the books piled on ottomans and chairs, quietly strangled to death. The younger sister, Nora, who is a dwarf, remained meantime in an upper chamber, and although this was done at about 6 o'clock Monday night, she first gave warning at 9 o'clock, and the ladies were not cut down until midnight. It was with the greatest difficulty that she could be induced to tell her story, and she told it in so disconnected and rambling a way that it is even now doubted. She is in a state bordering on insanity. In her chamber was found a knife of razor sharpness and a slip of paper on which was written: "We must nail up the doors." The trio have always been regarded as very erratic, and although nothing has been known against their character, they have been known to hold noisy and disturbing midnight orgies that are now regarded as an industry of Northern California, measurably more extensive than is I think generally known. Among the most wealthy and prominent wool growers we find Cone, owner of thirty thousand sheep; Parker and Houghton, thirty thousand, and Rawson twenty thousand. Cone is also President of the Bank, owner of an extensive merchandising establishment, and it would be superfluous to add, nominee for Railroad Commissioner. In none of my travels have I found so extensive a scope of country so arbitrarily controlled and governed by so few mighty magnates, as Northern California. For instance Hugh Glean, the Democratic and H. B. nominee for Governor, is said to control sixty thousand acres of arable land. The Parrot Grant, in Butte Co., seventeen thousand, seven hundred and sixty acres; the Pratt Grant, twenty-three thousand; the Reavis, fourteen thousand, while one at Gridley comprises thirty thousand, and the Thames Grant, in Tehama Co., between eighteen and twenty thousand broad acres. Gen. Bidwell of Chico is also struggling along with hard times and a small farm of eighteen thousand acres under cultivation. I do not believe that any man should have the right to usurp and hold more land than he can honestly till. And had I the power, I should go to those men and COMPEL THEM TO DIVIDE And subdivide those large tracts of land, and put the price of each farm within the purchasing limit of energetic, industrious men, who are willing and anxious, by honest toll, to furnish respectable support and maintenance for their wives, sons and daughters. They can do this with fair profit to themselves, and I'll venture to say they would find ready purchasers, and that vast area of land tilled and utilized would soon present one continued picture of cheerful thrift and blooming prosperity. No one would be the loser, while all would be gainers. In that way, I would but defraud alms houses and prisons, while the benefit to the State, county and individual interest would be incalculable. Think of one man farming from twelve to seventeen thousand acres of land! The enterprise is prodigious, and requires all the possible brain power and physical effort that one man possesses, both capital and interest, to engineer it successfully; while both science and experience teach us that land is more prolific,yielding double the amount and finer quality,if thoroughly and judiciously tilled. Why is it that into all that is bright and beautiful in this world,must stalk the grim spectre of greed and avarice making a perfect pan-demonium of it all! For how can a reflecting observant person see such a superabundance of wealth controlled by men who have more than enough for all their wants,both real and superficial,and looking in an opposite direction behold men, not in any respect inferior, stared in the face Mr. Cooper has had disposing of his oil,a dozen bottles whi(adulterated with cotton or grape seed,many instances thereparticle of olive oilso long as the peoplethe genninenessofofa high local reper's,the dealers hefor the more costlMr. Cooper hasseven years old,gallons of berriesgood year,and oncefrom seven berrinessin a good soil willberries in a good yield 150 gallonstree usually takengood years alternaty mature orchardmollons of oil tothelons may be dederiesand makinggallons make acouthost most offtwo ounces lessan acre will yieldin the presentbusiness,a manprobably not sellare not aware,hthingof the kindState.

NEW YORK, July 23.—The Tribune today, regarding the scheme which is attracting attention in Paris for a railway across Sahara to Timbuctoo, says: The projectors are two eminent engineers, Duponchel and Baron Bande. They claim that a route exists over solid ground for the whole of the distance, except forty miles over which it would be necessary to erect a timber tunnel, like the snow-sheds along the Central Pacific, to keep the shifting sands of the desert off the track. The estimated cost is eighty millions. It is claimed that the valleys of Higer and Basin of Lake Tschad are surpassingly fertile. A Sahara road would resemble our Pacific road in running for a great part of the length through an arid region, affording no traffic, but instead of reaching at its terminus a large civilized community, with a world-wide commerce, would find only a teeming horde of barbarous blacks who would have to adopt new modes of life before they could produce a surplus of agricultural products for the road to transport. NEW YORK, July 23.—The Times says two remarkable discoveries are chronicled to-day! First, a public creditor who prefers to have his pay in silver dollars; the other, a Federal officeholder who has filed a petition for a reduction of salary. The latter is an Indian blacksmith at Sacs and Fox Agency, where the pay is $700 yearly. The former is a colored pensioner. It is reported that an Eastern company has leased the old woolen mill at Sequel, Santa Clara county, with the privilege of buying, for the purpose of starting a paper mill the machinery of which will be on the ground in about a month. The enterprise is prodigious, and requires all the possible brain power and physical effort that one man possesses, both capital and interest, to engineer it successfully; while both science and experience teach us that land is more prolific, yielding double the amount and finer quality, if thoroughly and judiciously tilled. Why is it that into all that is bright and beautiful in this world, must stalk the grim spectre of greed and avarice, making a perfect pandemonium of it all? For how can a reflecting, observant person see such a superabundance of wealth controlled by men who have more than enough for all their wants, both real and superficial, and looking in an opposite direction, behold me, not in any respect inferior, stared in the face by DESOLATION AND WANT, The almost certain precursor of despair and crime. Without doubting the justice of men's law, and the tortuously slow progress of civilization, this accursed love of selfish affluent ease, of absolute dominant power, is what brings us to degradation, that fills our alms houses, our State prisons, and uses the scaffold for legalized murder. If all this wealth was acquired by honest toil, it would present to our sense of justice a different aspect, but we know this to be a moral impossibility. There is no man who in the course of a life time could acquire the great wealth that these men possess through accident or design of some third party. A few days since I rode down to Jacinto, distant from Chico sixteen miles, and situated on the Sacramento. The residences are not nearly so handsome as those between Chico and Noel, although we passed some fine fields of grain but I desire to refer particularly to a fine tract of wooded land belonging to the Parrot grant, through which we traversed a winding well-kept road heavily shaded by oak trees which grow there in great abundance; not particularly noticeable for great size, but peculiarly so for the riotous profusion of the wild grape vine, with which many of the trees are completely enveloped from the base to the topmost bough, making it difficult to ascertain which is the sturdy oak and which the clinging vine. To discontented wedded people, so delightful a sinile of AN HARMONIOUS UNION Might prove a profitable as well as an interesting study, for it conclusively proves that the most symmetrical beauty is obtained through the most perfect harmony. Fearing that my volubility will insure from you the grand bounce, I beg leave to refer in some future communication to the interesting mining town of Cherokee and the most charmingly rural village of Tehama, where I have been stopping for the past three days. You will probably hear from me next at Yreka, whither I purpose going to-morrow. In the meantime, adieu. Tehama, July 10th, 1879. Olive Culture. (From the San Francisco Alta.) It seems probable that California is to have an olive excitement. The table grape, the wine grape, the raisin grape, the English walnut, the almond and the orange, has each had its season for planting extensively, and each has failed to come up to the expectation of its advocates, because of some disease, destructive insect, fitness for very limited areas of soil or climate, or high expense in preparing the product for the market. We have long claimed, and still believe, that the olive deserves relatively more favor in California than any other plant, because it will bear valuable crops on poor soil, with less attention. It ought to cover the hillsides that are now worthless. It requires no irrigation, will grow on clay or rocky soil, without cultivation, and will begin to bear in four or five years, though it will not come into full bearing till ten years old. Last week Elwood Cooper, Esq., of Santa Barbara, brought to San Francisco 1000 gallons of well-clarified olive oil, the beginning, it may be said, of the business. Oil was made in California 60 years ago, at the Missiones. for home use, and a little has been made nearly every year, but, if any was sent to San Francisco, the quantity was small, and usually it was disposed of among the friends of the consignee, without offering it in the general market. We are not aware that any has come here in three or four years. The oil made at some of the orchards did not keep, perhaps because heat was used to prepare the berry for the press, whereas the cold process is much better. Mr. Cooper has found a little trouble in disposing of his oil. He wants $12 a case of a dozen bottles, whereas the imported article (adulterated with oils made from mustard, cotton or grape seed, peanuts or lard, and in many instances the liquid does not contain a particle of olive oil) can be had for $9; and so long as the people do not care for a brand the genuineness of which has the guarantee of a high local reputation, such as Mr. Cooper's, the dealers hesitate to risk their money for the more costly article. Mr. Cooper has 6000 trees, some of them seven years old, and these produce twenty-five barrels each on an average in a farm. The Blue Side. (From the Island Press.) One of your Los Angeles correspondents writes a very discouraging, disheartening sickening account of farming in his section of the country. Only a small portion of the grain is harvested, the remainder goes her sheep ranch, and that is all the land is fitted for. Only here and there in that semi-desert can anything much be raised, and many thousands of hard cash have been thrown away by planting where nature's laws are against man, although as fine crops as he ever saw have grown there. Half his bees are dead, and the prospect is flattering for the other half to go the same road. I sincerely sympathize with this correspondent in his ill-luck and misfortunes, but the fact is he is a little blue. He, and others as well, must not be so easily discopraged. He must pick his flint and try again. Farming, as all other pursuits, has its ups and downs, and no section of country is free from occasional misfortunes and losses of crops. I hope this correspondent will see better times next year. I lived in Kansas in 1874. It was a year of drouth. No corn was raised; a little wheat here and there was spared by the millions of cinch bugs and army worms; a few grapes were saved from the swarms of rose-bugs by constantly going over the vines with brooms; a very few cabbages and potatoes were rescued from the armies of grasshoppers that darkened the air like a thick falling snowstorm, taking every green thing; while the borers were destroying our fruit trees like a raging fire. The ague shook the last breath of life out of some of us, and the cerebro-meningitis threatened to decimate the entire population. Everybody was in debt, every farm was mortgaged for three times its selling value. Thanks to kind aid sent in from other States, even distant, generous California, we lived through it all, and now Kansas is one of the most prosperous States in the Union. So it is ever and everwhere. The better way to meet these inevitable reverses is to pursue a more diversified system of farming. No two crops are exactly alike successful every year. There are always seasons favorable to some crops and unfavorable to others. With a diversity of crops, some are sure to succeed every Mr. Cooper has found a little disposing of his oil. He wants $12 a case of a dozen bottles, whereas the imported article (adulterated with oils made from mustard, cotton or grape seed, peanuts or lard, and in many instances the liquid does not contain a particle of olive oil) can be had for $9; and so long as the people do not care for a brand the gimminess of which has the guarantee of a high local reputation, such as Mr. Cooper's, the dealers hesitate to risk their money for the more costly article. Mr. Cooper has 6000 trees, some of them seven years old, and these produce twenty gallons of berries each on an average in good year, and one gallon of oil is obtained from seven of berries. Trees ten years old in a good soil will average fifty gallons of berries in a good year, but sometimes will yield 150 gallons. After a good crop the tree usually takes a year's rest, so that its good years alternate. The oil yield from a mature orchard may be set down as 200 gallons of oil to the acre, and of this fifty gallons may be deducted for gathering the berries and making marketing the oil. Two gallons make a case of Mr. Cooper's bottles; though most of the imported bottles hold two ounces less. According to these figures an acre will yield $900 net annually, but, in the present depressed condition of business, a mature olive orchard would probably not sell for more than $400. We are not aware, however, that there is anything of the kind for sale anywhere in the State. After visiting Europe and studying the olive question, Mr. Cooper believes that our California olive is unsurpassed in fitness for producing a fine table oil. Our small purple berry is not so nice in appearance as the large green or whitish olive of Spain, but it is like the olive in those French districts which produce the best oils of Europe. Besides, he considers it excellent for picking, and much prefers the picked olives of Santa Barbara to those imported from Spain. A few of these Santa Barbara olives are now in our market; but those which we have tried are unpalatable and not to be compared to the Kimball olive of San Diego. Olives like these last, if they could be had in abundance, would soon leave the Spanish article without a friend. Many persons are preparing to set out olive orchards, and there is a great demand for cuttings, which are the only resource at present; but Mr. Cooper believes that the trees grown from the seed, and budded or grafted, though slower in bearing, will be stronger, healthier and longer-lived. He thinks that the roots from the cuttings never equal those from the seed in symmetry and vigor of nutrition. The Federal Department of Agriculture is cultivating twenty varieties of the European olive, and will soon be ready to supply applicants with cuttings. Our readers may remember that an excellent and comprehensive paper on the advantages of the olive for cultivation in California was read in the Academy of Sciences some months ago by B. B. Redding, Esq. A Plea for the Children. FOR JUSTICE OF THE PEACE. I AM A CANDIDATE FOR JUSTICE OF THE Peace for the Township of Anaheim, at the forthcoming election. EDWARD F. CAHILL Special Notice.

There are always seasons favorable to some crops and unfavorable to others. With a diversity of crops, some are sure to succeed every year, and the farmer is not left entirely destitute. It is a good rule—far too seldom adhered to in California—for the farmer never to buy anything he can raise on his farm. And the longer I live in California, the more I find that he can raise many more than he is accustomed to suppose. When he learns to raise all his own fruit, all his own vegetables, his own pork, beef and mutton, as well as all his necessary wheat, corn, barley, beans and sorghum molasses, he will find that, although some of these will fail some seasons, yet most of them will succeed most seasons, and all nature will not present so cerulean a hue as to make him sick unto death. And when, as will sometimes happen, the worst comes to the worst, let him search diligently for the brightest side and keep his eye unwaveringly upon that. S.P. Snow. Santa Barbara, Cal.

In a year or two, blackberries will be raised in abundance in this part of Los Angeles county, and if there is anything that blackberries are good for, it is to make wine. A recipe is here given to make the delicious drink: Take a five or ten-gallon keg, cleanse it thoroughly. Take only ripe berries, crush them in a wine or cider press, or, if not at hand, in cloths. After expressing the wine strain it carefully, and to each quart of juice add three pounds of the best yellow sugar and as much water as will make a gallon, and in this proportion for any quantity. Put the entire mixture in a kettle and bring it to boil, skim and when cool fill the keg three-fourths full and let it ferment for one week; then fill up the cask with freshly made liquor, and when done fermenting bung up tight, set away in the collar, where it should be racked off, the keg scaled out, and the liquor returned to the keg to remain permanently or bottled for use.
