Tim Dailv Mail. The Ortonian, Friday
week, laila on to the Copperhead paper! of the
State in their pemeltFi twaddle about a change
nf courie nn the part of the Statesman iu re
lation tn the Daily Mail. We have not changed
but hold preciiely the lame opinion! we did at
firtt, which are t -
lrit. The lettloment of the country hai m
far advanced that it i the duty of the govern
ment lo give na a daily mail.
2d. That mail ought to he offered to com
petitor!, with duo notice, aud fair opportuui
tiei, for bidding. !
3d. If the California Stiigo Company will
carry it for leu than any one elr-o, it iliould be
given to them if tomebody cdio will do tho
Work for leu, it iliould b refuted to tho Com
pany. 4th. ' That having failed to advertito the
oimtraot properly, tho Department hai obtain
ed tio bid at a reaaonnble rate, aud therefore
waa compelled to acoept Ihe extravagant one of
Iieeiide. He having proved utterly frretpon
tihle, we think the contract ought now to be
given to tho California Stage Company at the
high figure! which they propote rather than de
prive ui Of the mail altogether.
5th. The contract ought to be advertised
forthwith for next year, in order that itage
men have time lo compete, fairly and under
itnndingly. If the California Stngd"Cflinpany
bid lower than any one cite (aa they can and
probably will) they will get the job.
6th. Ia udvertktiug,, the route iliould be
uhdivlded Into at leant lix or seven route,
making tuch placet ai Salem. Corvallii, Eu

out. The front or the lniok building nn the
northwest corner of Sacriuieiito and Battery
itreets, fell out. A one itory building on the
corner of Market nnd Pine streets, was entire
ly destroyed. The City liall.walls were crack-1

The whole structure ought to come down fur

The City Hall fire bell rang from the thnck.
many hundred! of windowi were broken into

so that doors cunust bo opened or closed, and
it will be days helure the lull extent uf the

Clucki were stopped, water jari np-et. and in i
some cases people wer thrown off their feet '
from tlie violence of fie shock. There ii a
lively talk on tho immediate repeal of the Fire
Ordinance. The Occidental, Cosmopolitan and
Lick House being nit natural ground, suffered
less than the building! ntrih aud east nf this
point and on the Hat south nf Market itreet.
The fire walls fur the whole length of Gray'i
building on Sacramento itreet, between Mont

similar walls all over town, came down on tbe,
