WEEKLY GAZETTE. County Official Paper. SATURDAY...JANUARY 14, 1862 ENGLISH politicians differ in many respects from their American prototypes. For instance, it was proposed a short time ago to raise £20,000 and purchase a country home for Mr. Gladstone, but when the Premier heard of the project he peremptorily requested the promoters to discontinue the scheme, as he would not under any circumstances accept a gift. Mexico says a correspondent, is a memBER of the Postal Union, and sends letters all over the world for 5 cents, yet charges her own citizens 25 cents postage and denies them the privilege of licking their own stamps. You cannot buy a postage stamp in Mexico unless you are personally known to the Postmaster, and a postage stamp bought in one town is not good in a town ten miles away. A WRITER in a January magazine says the earth would be heated more than one hundred and ninety thousand degrees by being suddenly stopped—that is, it would at once become more than sixty times as hot as melted iron. Now let us all give a long pull a strong pull and a pull altogether and stop the earth in its travels for about five minutes and thus raise the temperature a little. AMONG the decisions rendered by the U.S. Supreme Court this week was one of very general interest. The suit was one which involved the question of priority of a mortgage held by appellants upon certain real estate in Salt Lake City, Utah Wells, Fargo & Co.'s mortgage bears the date of September 27, 1873, and was recorded September 29, 1873, at eight a.m. The appellant, Nealin, also holds a mortgage. MR. JAMES D. McCARE has recorded some interesting experiences of Christmas under the Confederacy. The dinner of 1861, he says, did not differ materially from its predecessors in the "piping times of peace," and though in 1862 the feast was home-made, it was enjoyable. Turkeys were only $11 apiece, and salt had fallen to 33 cents a pound. The Yule log was obtainable at $15 a cord; wines were to be had by the very rich, and sorghum rum or apple, peach, or blackberry brandy cost $30 a gallon. A few toys were left in the stores in the cities, and fire crackers, essential to the Southern festival, were $5 a pack. By 1863 the closest search of Santa Claus revealed no playthings, and freecrackers indicated great wealth or rackless extravagance. The few turkeys in the market were $40 and $50 apiece; whisky or sorghum rum for egg nogg cost $75 or $30 a gallon; sugar was $5 and $10 a pound, and flour $125 a barrel. With gold at 2,800, a plain Christmas dinner for a large family cost $200 or $200. In 1864, when Christmas fell on Sunday, gold was at 5,000. Flour was $900 a barrel; sugar, $2 an ounce; salt, $1 a pound; butter, $40; beef, $35 to $40. Wood was $100 a cord. Mr. McCabe describes a Christmas dinner at a country house near Richmond. The four gentlemen were in uniform, the three ladies were in homepun. They had for dinner a $300 ham, and the last turkey on the plantation, value $175, with $100 worth of cabages, potatoes and hominy. Corn bread was served, made of meal at $30 a bushel and salt at $1 a pound. The dessert was black molasses at $60 a gallon, and after one cup of tea—real tea, worth $100 a pound, treasured for the occasion as a surprise, and not assafras—there was coffee at discretion, made from sweet potatoes cut into little squares, toasted, and ground down. A SCIENTIST who in a recent paper discusses comets, annuously a theory at once novel and startling. He says: "I remember that when I was young the old people used to say that the winters were not then as cold as they had formerly been." Among the decisions rendered by the U.S. Supreme Court this week was one of very general interest. The suit was one which involved the question of priority of a mortgage held by appellants upon certain real estate in Salt Lake City, Utah. Wells, Fargo & Co.'s mortgage bears the date of September 27, 1873, and was recorded September 29, 1873, at eight a.m. The appellant, Nealin, also holds a mortgage upon the same premises, which is earlier than the mortgage of Wells, Fargo & Co., in date, but is later by four hours in the time of record. The Court below found as conclusion of law that the lien of mortgage owned by Wells, Fargo & Co., has priority over that of the mortgage to Nealin, notwithstanding the fact that the latter mortgage was executed first. Charles Dudley Warner is now in the south of France, and has been eating strawberries in Avignon. "To be sure," he writes, "they are the small, seedy Swiss variety, of which it takes a great many" to make a mouthful. But a strawberry is a strawberry in literature as well as on the table, and to come in of a winter morning from a walk in the abounding sun with a handful of roses and see on the breakfast table even the humbleest strawberry, is more pleasing than a stalled ox and snow in New England." Such is the ignorance of wisdom, Charles, who is smart enough to write interesting books, evidently does not know, that his aesthetic eyes could feast on roses and his aesthetic stomach feast on strawberries all the winter without journeying out of his own country. But snobs and fools go into ecatics over what they see in foreign countries, when similar scenes in their own country would not evoke comment from them. The irrepressible warfare between the Chronicle and minister Kalloch breaks out occasionally. Kalloch delivered a lecture last Sunday in which he charged the paper named with being the instigator of the attack made upon Metropolitan Temple in regard to its alleged deficient means of exit. He arraigned the Grand Jury in severe terms for its action in condemning the Temple, and claimed that it had more and larger exits than many other churches, theatres and public balls in the city. He denounced the past and present course of his newspaper enemy in most forcible invective, alluding to the death of Mr. De Young and the shooting of himself, daring them to repeat the attempt upon his life. He intimated that he might choose to again enter public life, in which case he notified his hearers that he would hire Union Hall and give his reasons for so doing, and would "tell it all." Bronson Alcott's latest instruction for his aesthetic disciples is that the purest food is fruit, and that, if animal food be eaten at all, it is best in the mild form of oysters and beautiful form of he. A scientist who in a recent paper discusses comets, announces a theory at once novel and startling. He says: "I remember that when I was young the old people used to say that the winters were not then as cold as they had formerly been. I mentioned this to Prof. Henry of the Smithsonian Institute, and he told me that there was reason to believe that there were at intervals of about thirty years, periods of greater cold for a few years at a time. He did not seem confident on this point, however. But we do know from the revelations of geology that in past times the earth has been much warmer and also much colder than it new is. At one time tropical plants and animals existed far in the northern regions, while at another period immense masses of ice visited South America. What produced these changes? Again, I have often wondered what became of the people who built the North American mounds and the massive structures found in Central America and elsewhere. It does not seem probable that such a people could have been exterminated by the savage tribes that our ancestors found on this continent. Again, the works seem to be too recent for the people who built them to have decayed and perished from want of further vitality in the stock, as geology shows that other races of animals have done. I was formerly inclined to attribute their destruction to some great volcanic disturbance that threw out an immense quantity of noxious gases thus terminated their existence. "It is not, however, more probable that in the earth's motion part of it came in contact with some noxious cometary matter, which for a time covered that side of the globe, but which was not abundant enough to spread itself over the whole surface of the earth!" New York, Jan. 9th.—A Washington special says: Dr. Bliss has returned from New York, where he met the other physicians of the late President Garfield for consultation relative to their fees. The total of the various sums agreed upon foots up $110,-000. It is said that Dr. Bliss has taken charge of the claims of all the physicians, and will present them to the Congressional Commission. It is understood that he will ask for himself $50,000, for Dr. Agnew, Hamilton and Reyburn, $8,000, and for Dr. Boynton and Mrs. Edson $10,000 each. Dr. Woodward and Surgeon-General Barnes get nothing because they were in the Government employ, and it is said they are to be promoted by way of recompense for their services. In answer to the question what was to go to the railroads, a friend of Dr. Bliss remarked to-day that he understood from the Doctor that the Pennsylvania railroad so treated first. Use aprons or are made of zinc wards, different trees—for small trees—and this apportion overplus solution may be saved in table, or one of the diameter with an azules going up thrice all the drip from from one place to another work; loss in his machinery about one minute; the pump.” Mr. Geiger says lye upon every year kill peach buds harmless to buds perfectly sound as but the secret (decidedly) was used lye or kerosene time, i.e. while tearing. He then went on which he thought for young orchard father when a boy his father, an exp both lye and soft which they had no codling-moth whore coming to that they used to tree trees with the rib some large animals each end and use bark in destroying. "Soft soap, oid with a brush, but with fresh water or lye. Lime-wash lot of the solution and then cook it, makes a kind of oil not readily washed out not the bud. Cook of the sulphur. yard were never only assignable which was used a bor adjoining soothe insects." BRONSON ALCOTT's latest instruction for his aesthetic disciples is that the purest food is fruit, and that, if animal food be eaten at all, it is best in the mild form of oysters and eggs. "Beautiful diet, beautiful form," he exclaims. "All pure posts have abstained almost entirely from animal food. Every animal feeder is sometimes tyrant. If one would abate that fate he must omit it entirely, but by a gradual process. Compare a table of the present day with that spread by the hands of Eve in Paradise to feed her ethereal guests. Then was gathered together a feast of the purest, a banquet of right. We are composed of atoms, and every atom must be musical and tremulous with harmony to give the body that harmony that is musical. The consent of our atoms, the absolute consent of every atom to every other atom—that is harmony. Every passion leaves its impress, we know not how long. Every atom sympathizes with every other atom." The census has been taken all over France, but the result will hardly be known before the middle of March, as the drawing up of the various statistical tables will entail much labor. Meanwhile, it is interesting to look back into the past and to see what progress the population of that country has made in the way of increase since the beginning of last century. In 1700 it was not quite up to 20,000,000; in 1801 it was a little over 27,000,000; in 1866 there were 38,000,000 of Frenchmen; but the year 1872 showed a diminution of nearly 2,000,000. The war and the losses and misery which it had entailed, coupled with the surrender of Alhace-Lorraine, were the cause of this substantial decrease. In 1876, however, matters had already begun to improve, and the census taken that year raised the figures to exactly 37,000,000. It is hoped that this year's census will show that the population of France has increased even in a greater proportion, and that it may be found to have risen to 38,500,000, the highest number ever yet attained. EX Governor R. C. McCormick has just purchased 16,000 acres of land in the State of Colima, on the Pacific coast of Mexico, and is going into the business of coffee culture on a large scale. He has 40,000 trees in bearing now, and expects to plant 12,000 per year for four years to come. In order to encourage the industry, the State will remit for a period of ten years all duty on the coffee and all taxes on the land where it is grown. The Temperance Colonization Society of Canada intends to establish a colony of total abstainers on a large scale. A million acres of Government land has been secured for the purpose, and people who hate alcohol are invited to settle on it, the farms being sold at slightly less than the established price. BELPAST, Jan. 9th. — The largest steel ship afloat, registering 2,220 tons, has just been launched for Ismay, Imrie & Co., managers of the White Star line. It is named the Garfield, and will be employed in the Australian and California trade. CHICAGO, Jan. 10. — The Citizens' League met to-night and elected officers. It was stated that $16,000,000 is paid out annually for liquors in Chicago and there are 5,000 saloons. The League suggests increased licenses. TROY (N. Y.), Jan. 10. — Bishop Doane of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese of Albany discourages the use of the revised version of the New Testament for other than marginal purposes.

I Davie should have REMEDIES FOR TREE PESTS. SAN JOSE, Cal., Jan. 9th, 1882. The Horticultural Society held a very interesting meeting on the 7th inst., Mr. Geiger giving his experience in treating the scale insect and Dr. Chapin the results of his last year's treatment of the red spider. Mr. Geiger has been spraying his orchard of trees twelve or fourteen years old, and thinks that it pays—if it "pays" to buy guano, bone dust or other fertilizers. He used a pound of lye to a gallon of water, this strength not injuring the buds and effectively disposing of the scale. He thought it had also killed the red spider, but time enough had not yet elapsed to prove that; but the spider seemed safe and did not leave a red stain upon the finger when crushed, hence he thought it highly probable that the solution had finished them, too. "It takes a long time to use the spray to do the work thoroughly—and therein was one secret of success—but use the lye, as it were like water but unlike water stays, crystallizes in a bright day in a few minutes and stays on the tree. The scale or other insect is killed at the instant of contact. Go over a tree four or five times, do not be in a hurry, spray thoroughly. Two nozzles throwing streams in such a manner that they strike against each other an inch or two from nozzles make a fine mist resembling fog, or a genuine Sootch mist, just as thick at the edges as in the middle. A person cannot stand in the mist—i.e. with the wind blowing it toward him. Stand at one side to throw the spray, and then across from the other side, and so keep doing, there will not be a place as large as a five cent piece upon a large tree (30 feet across the top) that is not thoroughly wet. It is the time and not the amount of solution that counts. "Use sprouts or pans about the trees, which are made of zinc in two pieces inclined upwards, different diameters for different sized trees—for small trees the diameter of one's hat—and this apron or pan will catch the overplus solution. Four out of five gallons may be saved in this manner. His own table, or one of them was fourteen feet in." WESTMINSTER ITEMS. Dr. G. S. Allen, of Los Angeles, lectured at the Congregational Church on Tuesday night on temperance, for the benefit of the Congregational Church. After the lecture the audience patronized the ice cream and refreshment table, which was prepared in the back end of the church. On Wednesday, day-evening, at the hall, the Doctor gave another very interesting lecture free, at the request of the Good Templars. We hope his visit may be repeated. One of the events of the week was the moving of Henry Wayman's house from its former site to the place that he has just bought. The house was loaded on four wagons and drawn by twenty-four horses. Mr. Keifhaber is making a large carp pond, devoting about two acres to that purpose. He has one pond already, that was stocked last spring by your correspondent with carp from the ponds of Mr. Pettit, of San Bernardino. A pleasant surprise party was held Saturday evening at the house of Mrs. Wallace. May we have many happy returns. The place formerly occupied by Mr. Tucker has been sold to Henry Wayman. The Gibson 160 acres has been sold to Sampson Edwards. Forty acres on the Harris place has been sold to Mr. Hazard, of Nebraska. We paid a pleasant visit on Tuesday to the Perk Packing establishment of Mr. Robt. Keccles. Although the season promises to be very dry, and business seems to be waiting to see what the weather is going to be, here we found everything rushing. The firm is receiving about 100 hogs per week for which they are paying about $1,000 per week. We were cordially shown through the different departments by the gentleman proprietor. First the salting room, where sides and shoulders and other portions intended for bacon are attended to; then to the ham room, where the large tanks are filled with ham packed in sweet pickle before smoking; from here we went to the smoke house, capable of smoking five tons of meat at once. As Mr. Eccles uses noth... after one pound, orprise, and discussion, into little to throw the spray, and then across from the other side, and so keep doing, there will not be a place as large as a five cent piece upon a large tree (30 feet across the top) that is not thoroughly wet. It is the time and not the amount of solution that counts. "Use aprons or pans about the trees, which are made of zinc in two pieces inclined upwards, different diameters for different sized trees—for small trees the diameter of one's hat—and this apron or pan will catch the overplus solution. Four out of five gallons may be saved in this manner. His own table, or one of them, was fourteen feet in diameter with an eight-inch pitch, the nozzles going up through the pan, thus saving all the drip from the nozzles while moving from one place to another, or filling ready for further work. He has about fifteen gallons in his machine at the start. It takes about one minute to empty the pan and set the pump." Mr. Geiger said that he had used the lye upon every kind of fruit tree, and whereas last year some one thought it would kill peach buds he had found it perfectly harmless to buds before bursting; bark was perfectly sound and healthy after using it; but the secret (which he emphasized very decidedly) was that, no matter what was used, lye or kerosene, use it at the right time, i.e. while the tree is not growing. He then went on to tell of using soft soap, which he thought decidedly the beat thing for young orchards, and told of helping his father when a boy in the orchards, and that his father, an experienced orchardist, used both lye and soft soap—not for the scale, which they had never heard of, but for the codling-moth which they did have long before coming to this country. He also stated that they used to scrape the old rough-backed trees with the rib of some animal. A rib of some large animal curves and can be held at each end and used to scrape down the rough bark in destroying the codling-moth. "Soft soap, of course, is too thick to apply with a brush, but should never be diluted with fresh water. Dilute with lime-water or lye. Lime-water is the best. To a gallon of the solution add a pound of sulphur and then cook it, apply with a brush, and it makes a kind of paint that stays and does not readily wash off. It will kill foliage but not the bud. Cooking brings out the odor of the sulphur. French prunes in the vineyard were never affected by a 'bag,' the only assignable reason being the sulphur which was used about the grapes, as a neighbor adjoining south had his prunes full of the insects." Dr. Chapia said that a year ago he washed his trees with lye, a pound to three gallons of water at first, and it did not seem to affect the red spider, which would crawl up the acions where he had grafted trees and eat the buds as soon as they started, so that no leaves appeared; then he finally used one pound of lye to the gallon of water and found no more eating and no more hatching out from the egg. He had examined the trees so treated several times during the waiting to see what the weather is going to be, here we found everything rushing. The firm is receiving about 100 hogs per week for which they are paying about $1,600 per week. We were cordially shown through the different departments by the gentleman proprietor. First the salting room, where sides and shoulders and other portions intended for bacon are attended to; then to the ham room, where the large tanks are filled with ham packed in sweet pickle before smoking; from here we went to the smoke house, capable of smoking five tons of meat at once. As Mr. Eoclea uses nothing but dry corn cobs for smoking any of the meat, its good quality can be assured. In the lard room we found everything convenient for rendering and refining on a large scale. The good reputation of the products of this establishment can be known from the fact that everything is sold as fast as it is ready. Many new buildings have been erected within the last year, and it will repay anyone one to pay this establishment a visit if they want to see what is being done right at home. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Thomas Casey died suddenly at Visalia on Monday, as the result of dissipation. Buckalew & Ochoa, of Tucson, have failed. Liabilities, $50,000. They expect to pay fifty cents on the dollar. Amos Chubb, a carpenter, committed suicide on Monday at Wilcox, A. T., by throwing himself in front of a passing train. He was beheaded. Charles Goodrich, a carpenter, of Napa, was found dead in the tules near Benicia a few days ago. It is thought he was murdered. Edward E. Butler, who was found dead at his residence on the Grigaby ranch, Napa county, on Dec. 19th, and who was thought to have committed suicide, is now known to have been murdered by two Chinamen, who have been arrested. W. Stedman, a hunter, was accidentally killed by the discharge of his gun near Dover, on the San Joaquin river, in Merced county, on Tuesday. In taking the gun from a wagon the charge exploded, blowing away the side of his head. William Pope, of Shasta Valley, Siskiyou county, aged eighteen, met with a fatal accident Sunday. He was putting away his gun, when the hammer striking against another gun caused it to discharge the contents into his head. A murder case was being tried in the Superior Court at Sonora, and while James Burns, one of the witnesses, was being examined by Caleb Dorsey, Assistant District Attorney, hot words passed, which resulted in Dorsey's drawing a six-shooter, which was followed by Burns drawing his pistol. Parties in the Court-room got between them and prevented any further demonstrations.

The Post Office Department issued stamps to the value of $640,000 on the 8th inst., the largest ever known, being twenty million stamps and six million postal cards. The Washington Post publishes a statement from Joe Johnston, denying that he recently accused Jeff Davis of stealing Confederate funds. He admits having said that Davis should have associated for the funds, A murder case was being tried in the Superior Court at Sonora, and while James Burns, one of the witnesses, was being examined by Caleb Dorsey, Assistant District Attorney, hot words passed, which resulted in Dorsey's drawing a six-shooter, which was followed by Burns drawing his pistol. Parties in the Court-room got between them and prevented any further demonstrations. Two unsuccessful attempts were made last week to rob the stage near Los Alamos, Santa Barbara county, the driver in both instances running away from the robbers. On Monday night three men stopped the stage near the same place and captured Wella, Fargo & Co.'s box and trook a fine gold watch from the driver, which had been presented to him by the Stage Company. The robbers told him that it would pay him for running away from them and that they would keep it to remember him by. One night last week the waltzers at a very aristocratic ball in Ashland, Or., suddenly stopped dancing because William Webb, the only violin player, ceased performing and threw up his hands. The reason for Webb's action was that the Sheriff was standing in the doorway with a shotgun leveled on the musician, whom he had come to arrest on a charge of horse stealing. The belles and beaux coaxed the Sheriff for a few hours' delay in the execution of his warrant, but he was obdurate and imperative, and the party was unceremoniously closed. A Tombstone dispatch of the 8th says: The Benson up stage was stopped last night, about one o'clock, half way between Contention and Tombstone, by two masked men. J. B. Hume, detective of Wells, Fargo & Co., and eight other passengers were on board. The night stage never brings mail or express, so all the robbers got was from the passengers. Hume had two fine revolvers, which the robbers took from him. They only got three revolvers and about $75, although the passengers had $1,200 or $1,-500 among them. The robbers were in too big a hurry to closely search for plunder. Wells, Fargo & Co. offer a reward of $300 for the capture of the robber. SEALED PROPOSALS Will be received at this office until Monday, February 6th, 1882, at 10 o'clock A.M. to furnish a morgue and bury the indigent dead of Los Angeles county.

Center Street, Anaheim, Cal. THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed stores of Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy gate. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known every one of the California Mills put up by the undermined檐ed injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE, (4 different lengths) in the ease and inefficiency of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold.
