In times past _ there was.some excéuse for this inuction on who has the welfate-of the community at heart. But now, a very different state ‘of things exist, Let good men look at a bleeding nation; let them remember that the Union, liberty and humanity appeal to them to act, and to act as though the issue of the great contest between Union and treason de« pended upon their efforts alone. We fear that loyal men leave too much to politiéal wire pullers. That they think more of busi« ness than bow the State shall be represent.’ edin Congress. That they want loyal men and that-duch will be nominated we do not doubt. But will the best men of the Union party. work to place in the councils of the nation ability, integrity and influence as well. as loyalty. Upon the answer of this ques.

The Indiana had commenced thturdering the whites, and a party of one hundred and eight men had been made up, under different captains; and all commanded by Major Ormsby. They pros ceeded down to the Truckee river, and along ite co ‘to within a few miles of Pyramid . Lal 6, where they were attacked by the Indiane under Winnemucea the ‘Younger.— Only fifty-four of the party ever got back again, One by one the living came back to Virginia, bare~footed, blistered, starving and wounded. Doubt and anxiety and tear were in every heart: Young Baldwin, then only about sixteen years of age, was of the party, and those who knew him er his relatives hopéd and doubted: One, two and three days after the battle passed away -without ‘aay tidings.” It-was on the fourth dav,-we think, that the word flew about-the camp— Virginia was little nore than that then— that young Baldwin had returned. Ya company with Cuvlonel Snowden, whose son Richard bad gone out with the Orogsby party and had not returned, we ran to the house where the poor . ttle weary fellow lay, half dead with fatigue, hunger and suffering, but his spirit calm and unbroken, He had es caped massacre, had brought back his rifle and ammunition, a feat which very few men of the patty bad been able to do. He gave a clear and’ quiet recital of the seenes he witnessed ond the mauner of hig eecape.— Henry Meredith, his friend ‘and almost brother, mortally wounded, told tim to try and escape. But his mule had broken away. any loyal man, if he had a voice in saying who should lead vur armies in the field, sit with his hands idly folded, or attend to the affairs of business, satisfied with any man who is unquestionably loyal? We think not. Now, we ere onthe eve of a primary election, #t.which choice is to be made for 4 representative of the State in Congress. That representative.will be called upon to actin matters of the greatest importance. He will huve. a voice in establishing peace when the rebellion is conquered, 1n provid« ing teans for sustaining and filling up the great armies of the republic, in the management of finance, and upon him will the inter> este of California especially depend? What are allthese worth? If they are uf great value should not every loyal man in the . State give them his time? Let business go for one day, and give that day to the State and the nation. The result of a Primary election will decide whether these interests will be ably gared for. How deep an inter« est. then should every loyal man feel in its result. “Business men and good citizens, remember the coming Primaries. Go to the polls and work for the vety beat man in the field, regardless of all personal considerations. Always before giving your uid to a man, ask whether he ia capable aud among men?

Almost immediately two or three Todians passed close by them ; but, not find ing them, repassed, probably to continue the pursuit of other fugitives. “Why did you ‘not swim the river, Joe?” asked one of hia friends; “you could have swam the river and escaped along the western side, could you not?’ "Yon," said the brave boy, *Ecould have swam ‘the river, but my companion -could-not-swit, tnd I would not leave him.” Fifteen to twenty medheard this heroic but quiet reply, and not one képt his eyes dry in Tesponse. Such a determination.by a mere stripling, and so announced, impressed all persons as bordering on the sublime. And now the poor boy has passed the river, broad er and colder than the Truckee, where no war whoop .wiil ever reach his ears again, no stealthy tread of the red savaye hunt for his young life. “Over the. river; over the river,” may peace and pleasant fields uf the spirit land have welcomed the feet, weary and worn so soon in lite’s battles and defeat: SymPaTuHYy.—Where and between whota do_you think?

A short time after the vessel sailed, Mr. N. P. Sheldon, of Silver] to Captain H. H. Welch, of Syracuse, New York, tu.convey the unweleome news of the death of Mr. Phillips to bis family on their arrival at New York. Mr. Sheldon yestercay received a letter from Capt. Weleh, in which be gives this graphic account of his first interview with Mrs. Phillipe: “I found her.at French’s Hotel. So confident was ber husband of meeting her in New York; that he directed her to remain vn the steamer until he should: comeé-on board to meet her. %o she remained on board for nearly twenty-four hours, and then went to the hotel. .When J met her she was quite cheertul; little had she reflected that ‘Man proposes but God disposes ;’ and still less did she dreaw of the very brittle thread by which the rock was suspended that was so soon to crus her. I broke the terrible tidings to her.as delicately and as tender as 1 could do it. Oh, Sheldon! it Was truly heart-rending. Never again may I witness a scene like unto it! Iron though I may be, Iam not marble-hearted. What I did for you in'thé way of friendship, money would nothire’me todoagain.’”’ * * * * Captain Welch further states that he found Mrs. Phillips in quite delicate circumstances, and furnished her with the meaus to go to Michigan, where her relatives reside. Lhe history of the family, with -whieh we have been acquainted tor about:seven years, is # sad and melancholy one, and embraces many incidents of prosperity and adversity— fh the common lot of thousands who in years past, cought the shores uf the Pacific to parlcipate in golden-dreams, «nd:to rear silver “castles in the air,” but ultimately only tu be knocked down, and to be crumbled in the dust, by the baud of fate.

Fhe populous counties of Sacramento and Nevada have yet to elect their delegates, whose number will prubably be sufficient to control the re« sult.

At the worst, these delegates can defeat aspirants who, without brains sufficient to justify their elevation to the Legislature, have cheek endtigh to‘run for the Presidency. At the best, they can select a candidate who has not solicited sups port but who will accept a nomination free« ly tendered by his fellowscitizens, under the influence of a sense of the duty which he owes to the country.
