U
‘again be called upon to raily around
the party standard in a contest with the
old enemy. The contest is not only
‘important in itself, but in its influence
upon 'fatare contests in this State will
be of the utmost importance. Remems
ber that though this ‘ie only a State
fight, the party here isa detachment of
the. great party of the country under the lead of Grant. Remember
the past, study the present and look to
the future of Republicanism and De~
mocracy, Ask yourselves for which
the country has most reason to hope?
and aiter so doing goto the polls and
vote as your reason and conscience dic
tates.
We have, an immense. debt. piled
upon the country by Democratic policy,
which is now beiag’ paid by a Republican administration ut the rate af ten
millions per month.
We have a State free from debt op
account of the financial policy inaugurated by the Republican p»rty, aiter
the administration had been taken out
of the hands of Democracy almost
bankrupt.
The Republican party, by thwarting
the purposes of Gwin and others who
desired to establish a Pacific Republic,
prévented desolating war on this coast,
and saved California from the fate that
hag fallen upon Virginia.
The Republican party succeeded to
the-administration of county affairs,
when scrip was not’ worth 60 cents on
thedollar, and when no ‘schools had
been established of « creditable character and the school tax was only five
cents on the dollar. The Union party
has raised the value of scrip to 90 cents
and will shortly clear the county of
debt. It has riised the school tax to
25 cents, besides throwing in the appropriations of licenses on same purj etie »
pose.
In National, State and County affairs,
the Republican party has served the
people faithfully and advanced the in-,
atrengthened the nation ani preserved
its purity. What is there now to cause
the people to distrust the party which
has done all this? On the contrary,
should not its record lead all good citix
zens to trust the party and stand by it
in the future as in the past? This
they wiildo. The Republicans of Nevada county are united, and they will
in the coming contest triumph. There
is neither weakness or ‘dissention in
the ranks. False issues. cannot lead
them away from duty, and they enter
the fight with the confidence of victory.
Furtuer Repuction:—The Pacific
Mail Steamship Company have reduced
their rates still further, and changed
their arrangements eo that there will
be but two classes of passengers—cabin
and steerage. The prices are fixed at
$100 for cabin, and $50 for steerage.
State rooms will be allotted in the order of application. First come first
served. This isa good move.
A nee
A, H, Ross. of Amador, has purchased one hundred acres of land near San
A Piece or Peace CaLico.—We
were shown yegterday a sample of calico, manufacted in one of our Bastern
cities expressly forthe National Peace
Jubilee, which recently took place in
Boston, Mass. It is ofa purple color
with small shields interspersed threughout, and the word “peace” printed in
white letters in each shield. At intervals of an inch, and running the éntire
. length, is the staff of music, with the:
notes of all the music sung at that
time. Among them wo notice “Hail
Columbia,” “Captain withthe Whiskers,” “Star Spangled Banner,” “Cap»~
tain Jinks,” “Red, White and Blue,”
“Does your Mother know you're out,”
“Old Hundred,” etc., etc. It’s a gay
piece of calico, and the letter accompanying it, says that it was all the rage
there at one time ©
THE FIRE oN THE RarLRoap.—It
now appears that two miles of shedding
was destroyed by the fireat'the Sum-='
mit, instead of one and a half miles, as
given by us yesterday. It isstated the
fire originated in some timber near the
road, was communicated to the sheds
and quickened by the stiff breeze that
prevailed, so that when discovered it
was too late to arrest it. The passengers from the East, who were forced to
remain at Truckee, employed their time
in visiting the points of interest in the
vicinity, Beach, of the New York Sun,
taking his family to Lake Tahoe, and
Judge Breese, of Illinois, with his party
-wisiting Donner Lake and the Summit.
4 large number of men were at once
put to work clearilsg away the ruins
and re-laying the track, and it is probs.
ably ready for trains by this time.
RESIGNATION.— We understand that
John R. Brown has sent in to the Gentral Pacific Railroad Company his ress
ignation as freight agent at the Sacra
mento depot—the same to go. into ef.
‘fect on the first of September. Since
connected with the Central Pacific road
in varioud capacities, and hus ever given the greatest satisfaction to all with
whom he had bcsinesstransactions. A
few months since the merchants of that
city presented him with a handsome
testimonial of respect and esteem. Mr.
Brown resigns his ‘position as freight
agent, in order to become agent in this
city for the Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance Company.
PLEASANT VALLEY QUARTZ.— The
‘people of Pleasant Valley, in Rough &
Ready Township, says the Grass Valley
Union, are again getting somewhat excited over quartz, and are beginning to
prospect. Mr. T. C. Bourne sends us
some specimens from ‘a ledge which he
has lately discovered, and these look as
if the ledge is a good one. We areinformed that it prospects finely. There
is no reason why Pleasant Valley should
not have as good quartz as Grass Val-~
ley. Prospecting, alone, will show the
facts of the case.
