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

among the leaders, as well as among
the press must be set aside for men who

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.
No oue was hurt, and neither horses
nor Vehicle injured.

first diabolical seance last night at th
place. 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
