bia’ 2-2) themisélved“and-promotors of discord + and the contest appears so bitter, that the matter has come up before the Sen~~», atorial caucus.__We do not allude to} this quarrel for the purpose of. discuseing its merits, nor do we propose to indorse or condemn any of the participants, We only desire te protest ' ne -introduction of these personal matters into California politics, or the atteupt of any man,whether friend or foe, to make his quarrel a party matter. Ya California today the Republican party is-harmonious, and the masses of the party care nothing about the quarrels of those in ausbority. What do the maas of Republicans care whetb. er Smith or Jones be appointed Post‘master at Mud Fist, or whether the successful appointee be recommended . by one or the other of the Representatives of the people. The disappointed seeker may be sore, but he has no right to expect that one half of the Repablican party should smart under his defeat. ‘The truth is, the whole trouble has been in regard to appointments,and tlie defeated should have quietly submitted to the result The Repablican party of California has a right to deniand that this quarrel cease, and the journals of the party which ars continually encouraging factious warfare should be discountenanced by the people. A public journal, simply ‘because its friends have failed to secure appointment, is not justified in bringing its quarrel before the pub. lic, and exhibiting its sores a5 a mendicant. Such things are disgusting to the masses of the party. The large majority of the Repablicans will not either by the leaders .or the press, and it they should not do sd. Faci it is proper they should not do OC] cor the canis, .meking themgo aad of Sweetland to Sebastopol, a distance tional didturbers of party barmony among the leaders, as well as among the press must be set aside for men who ean sink self forthe good of the party. The Democracy of this State ‘have already opened. the way for Bepablican victory. “All that is necessary to secure it is harmonious and united ac_, tion on the part of the party. A devotion to principle, the selection of men of honesty for candidates, and a faithful adherence to ecopomy in the manage ment of public affairs, will bring triumph withit. We say to our friends at Washington, don’t put stumbling blocks in the way—"“let us have peace.” Grass Valley Items. We get the following from the Grass . Valley Union, of yesterday: Young Mullen was yesterday held by Jastice Paynter to answer before. the Grand Jury on a charge of assault with intent to murder Casper Samuel. The bail bond was fixed at $500, and defendant was committed, We shall probably heat. more.of the case under proceedings ona writ of habeas corpus. The isswult was committed a month or two since. As Herrmann, with his wife, was starting to visit the Empire mine, the team ran off and continued nearly a quarter of a mile, until Herrmann got out upon the pole of the vehicle and caught-the reins and stopped the horses.

Having heard somuch of this gentleman's fame in~ legerdemain exploits, I decided, to atten }-ene.of his. tuck straight, invested -a dollar in a ticket and took a front seat among other amatears. The Hall was crowded, and it was no common crowd either; both sexes weré ‘well represented and “rigged up regatdless of cost, by Madam Fashion.” Some men wore elegant dress coats, the cut of which was the “atest thing out;” “and “mammoth “ghoo-fly” neck-ties and a.good variety of noses. There was the pug nose} (latest pattern “from Paris); the lonic nose, the retroussi, the elongated, the parrotshaped and lastly, thouga not least, the poking nose, (this last is an old: fashioned nose now rediviyas). Some of the ladies wore beautiful pale complexions, while others adopted “for the occasion” delicate roveate, such as art can produce. ‘There were splendid sets of hair (some having cost 10 . less than $80); beautiful sets of teeth (pure China) ; water-falls, a plethora of ample Grecian bends, “rats,” etc. At 8 precisely the Professor made his magnifying glasses of 14horse power, were applied to my visal organs ; and I-beheld in the Professor a good ‘looking moustached devil. He made a few introductory remarks or explanations on his art, stating that it consisted in mere legerdemain ; that he made use of no mechanical contrivances , no diabolicalism or supernataral aid was required. He was not related in any way or shape to ze gentleman from below, and what is more he didn’t want to, so help him himG—! He commenced his performance with a pack of cards which he manipulated dexterously. I never saw bis~equal before. He exercised a kind of magic influence come, showing them and making them disappear with wonderful skill It was a puzzle to everybody—‘now you see it and now you don't.’ In his floating stick trick we were as much surprised as delighted. Bat the magic basket gave the most. universal satisfaction. He caused to be issued !rom it an abundance of candy which he distributed among the ladies of the sudience ; he then drew forth from it an endless string of paper which, when piled together formed a bulk of at least four times the size.ot said basket. We next heard the musical sound of quack! quack . issuing from the basket, and presto! a magestic 18 pound goose was exhibited, and, which, to appearences, not relishing mach such manipulations on his duck-like .person repeated his disapprebation with anétler quack! The professor stated something about “cooking his goose,” which annonacement made him (the goose) remarkably . active in making a hasty retreat behind the scenes. The first part of the programme concluded with his swallowing a hage bottle, the performance of which gave us a pain in the‘stomach, but we jortunately partook of another extra glass which dispelled the paia af id chorus’ with ch! ho! entero. ava, Le} 5 consi wa Ut Rebit y ‘the American aod Gold Bluff mining also J.
