Tae Suorrest axp Best Way.—The ‘ern States to their places in the Union, compeuitip with the safety ef the country, is the way. This uo“ one will deny, and ifthe plan adopted by Congress is better calculated ‘to secure these ende, then it try. The ingenious address of the Philadelphia Convention; and the speech of the President, im which he reiterates the charges made in tis’ épeech on the 22d, against Con‘Bross, evade the real issue between that body and the President. The Constitution. al Amendments aré entirely. ignored, and ‘except the general assertion_of oppomtion to any amendment until the Southern States ure represented, not the slightest allusion has been made. to these ainendments upon which Congress comes before the people. They constitute the platform of Congress, and the simple question presented is, whether they should be adopted by the States or rejected. ;The issue is plainly stated, and he that “rans may read,” and comprehend. The plan of the President ig on the contrary Very difficult to anderstand, and be and . hia friends have been led into innutnerable thickets in their efforts to clear away the fog in which *‘my policy” involves them. The Presiient, after. totally ignoring the rights, which be now claime for the rebel States by appointing officers without war' Fant by the Constitution ; assuming legis‘fative authority, and making laws for their government after they had laid down their arms, now claims that Congress, the only branch of the Government clothed with legislative authority, has no right to make laws for the regulation of affuirs in the Southern States. Congress is declared an illegal body because the, Representatives were chosen vnly by the people of one section, By the same argument, if it is sound, ' Johnsda might be deprive of his seat as President, for certainly the Southern States had no more todo with his election than they-bad in taming Congressmen. Every time the President or. his friends reiterate this charge, they strike at Johnson as well as at Congress. In the early part of his administtation, Johnsen told the people of . the South, as did Lincoln, that their-State constitutions must be brought to Congress fut approval, He now claims that Congress bus nothing‘to do with the matter.— Again, by signing the joint resulution of Congréss admitting the Representatives of Tennessee to seats, Johnson virtually indorsed the pulicy of Congress. These actions aud declarations of the President's party do not speak well for their consistency. The results of the» President's course show that. instead of recunstructing the rebel States he has increased the obstacles in the way of reconstruction. By reatoring uorepentant rebels to power he hus made treason, which was well nigh crushed at the 6nd of the war, strong and defiant, and the rebel leaders, instead of. being -supplicants for pardon. are beginving to dictate terms te loyal men. Loyalty bas been trampled urider fwot in the South, and ‘the friends of the Unieu are compelled to go to the North for the.purpose of hulding a Cvaventioa, to escspe violence at the hands of the rebel. ligus frievds vf Johasen’s pilav at hame.— The murder of loyal men at New Orleans isenough to damn the President's poliey in the eyes of all true men. The President's foad to. reconstructiun ‘is a lung one, and it will be reddened by the bleod efmen who dare to stand up fur their rights in the Seuth, Ou. the: other hand, .the pian of Congress conteniplates keeping treasonable ite of the South out of power uatil they cad be safely trusted, and giving the cuntrol vt theee States to loyal men. It proposes tw equalize representation throughout the lag. “In, fine, it is set forth in the proposed Amendments, which if adopted, will make it 4'part of the fuiidumental law, not subject to be overthrown al every recurring elvetiog, , It may be adopted, and the rrbel States may be restored under it before the day, of March nest, while Juhneants Furth d t plan will on comp heate the difficulties the South. The true friends of the Sou add 'the Noith will stand by ‘the pian Congress, The. proposed.

The votes cast ia Sierra couttty last election-were 2,426..Only.1,400 were earolied August 18th.. Fifty-two deaths veeurred in Sap Francisev last week, 13 under 5 years old. Only two oceurred in Sacramento—one committed suicide and the other died from general debility ..,There were 936/219 in ‘the Satrameuto~ treasury last Saturday. ..Mra, 8. W. Jacks, of 8. F. slipped by stepping on a plumb pit, and falling, broke her arm..Two distinct but slight shoeks of earthquake occurred in 8. F. at 27 minutes to 10 v’cleck on Sunday morning last.>.There ate in San Francisco, 1854 lamps that are lighted at a cost of $12,000 per month to the eity..A Chinamen was killed in the act of committing robbery in Stockton, by a watchman, on ‘the night of the 18th of August..Gen. Rosecrans was in Stockton last Saturday, on his way to Sonora. Goop Pay.—The Whigham ledge is yielding some excellent reck which is being worked at the French mill, and is paying between $130 and $150 per ton.’ The mill is crudhing from five to seven tons a day.’ Lost.—A memorandum book containing papers valuable only to the owner, was lost between this city and Grass Valley. The finder will confer a favor and be suitably rewardéd, on leaving on sending the bovk to this office. See advertisement in to-day's paper. A Boquet.—We are indebted to Mrs. Curtis for eplendid boquet of flowers, gathered from her garden at Gold Flat. They are quite a rarity at this season of the year. Tue SUPERVisoxs.—The Board of Supervisors completed their work yesterday and adjourned forthe térm. They will meet again ten days after the Supervisor electiou to canvas the teturns. -Pawmary Meerincs.—The Union men ot Grass Valley, Little York and Rough & Ready townships, will meet thisevening for the purpose of chosing delegates to. the Convention which meets at Grass Valley un Saturday, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Supervisor. ‘SPUE repairs on the Suspension bridge are about completed, and the bridge will be open for teams to-day. THE coffin which inclosed the remains of Gustave III, of Stockhulm. has been so corroded by time as to render its reparation necéssary. It was therefore opened, and the authorities were astonished to find the head and face of the ancient sovereign in & perfect state of preservation, while the rest of the body was completely decomthe 16th of March, 1792. 4 CoNSISTENT.—The rebels of Missouri, disfranchised by State law, have appealed to the President to protect them and he has. promised todoso. He can find warrant tur military interferance to protect rebels in Missouri, which never seceded, but it is “unconstitutional, te protect loyalty in Lovwisiana, whieh ‘Wid Sécede. Hew cunsistent ‘‘my policy” is. Tne President bas decided to make a “clean sweep" of Radicals from office — This raid may properly be designated as the charge af the ‘Bread & Butter Brigade.» This promwe of Jubnson’s was made to Philadelphia delegates whe are “out of meat” P JOUNSON says he is delighted With t Philudetphia Convention. We dvn’t doubt it, says the Fing, aud more, we believe that if he could have heard cheers for Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Vallandighbam in Washington, fifteen minutes after the assasgination of Lineoln, bis eécret heart would have bounded with joy.

Then comes a row. of sausag:s of al! forms, supported by one of eggs, oysters and olives, which in its turn is surrounded by a double cirele of peaches, cherries, melons and other fruits and vegetables. The walls ot the trine'inium are euvered with fresco paintings of birds, fruite, lewers. game, and fish of all kinds, the whole interspersed with drawings which lend a charm to the whole noteasy to describe.
