Unity or Errort.—The setting of to-morrow’s sun will witness the more thorough redemption of the State from Democratic misrule. That this is to be the case, none who have observed the bickerings and family troubles of the Democrats in various localities will ever affect a doubt. But while we ‘confidently expect an increased majority in the State over the last election’ from these dissentions in the Democratic ranks and other causes, it still becomes us to urge a united action on the part.of Republicans, The triumph of our party at this time would bea refutation of the remark that is often made, that Grant’s reputation did the work for us in the last campaign, and ‘would add incalculably to the prestige Notwithstanding all over the State are making strenuous efforts to elect, in each county, the legislative ticket. The same fight is being made in this county, except,pers haps, it be a trifle more selfish. And the people of our county,how view they these aspirations for place and plunder? Do they entertain thoughts of ever bestowing office upon these Democrats, so long as an empty coat sleeve or missing leg remains to attest their diabolical attempt upon the nation’s life? It has been said that the war being over there is Dow no occasion for so strict an ob~ servance of party fealty ; that it is men now and not principles—but how foolish such a doctrine! A patient past the crisis ofa fever is not deserted by his physician with the remark that as he has not died he will see him no more; \but is carefully nursed back to total convalescence. So itis with our country; she has been repeatedly stabbed in the back by this very Democratic party, now when near recovery, it is proposed to put her into the hands of her would=be assassins, Itmakes no difference if this is but a State contest, it will have a bearing upon nas tional affairs, and these Democrats seeking your votes in this county ars equally culpable, and more deserving of defeat than many aman that bore a musket in the rebel army. Their leaders have called upon you to east votes in favor of their ‘candidates, in the face of facts which are sufficiently damning to tarnish the reputation of the devil. They had control of this government once—a debt of three thou. sand, three hundred and seventy-seven millions, nine hundred and thirty-four thousand,five hundred and eighty-nine dollars, to say nothing of the value of thousands of brave lives kitests the fact. They were in full power in this State in times gone by —they. allowed the Chinese Empire to relieve herself of a small surplus of population, amounting to 60,000, te the great -injury of our people; they left the State in a bankrupt condition to their Republi; can successors. In this couhty they once held sway—a depleted treasury, with scrip worth not half its face, would suggest the fact, and so in every instance where they have been honored with the-confidence of the people. They have always broken their pledges and are degerving of political extermination and oblivion, ‘The wound was mortal aud he imme~ ‘hibited the movement, true, to. the record of your, party, and it, i every.aiiember. of the party. Marshal your forces, afd to-morrow march to the polls to fight these enemies of free government with the ballot, as your brothers fought and conquered their brothers with the sword on the field of battle. If there be one among you who is disaffected, tell him of his brothstarved to death in the prison pen of that consistent Democrat, Wirtz. One noticeable“feature in this contest is the unanimity of effort made by the rejected aspirants for places on the ticket;. they, that should characterize defeated contestants, are working—for—its success, -with a confidence that—cannot fail of accomplishing the desired end. And now we wish you to thiak of these things, you who have thought of scratching a single name upon the Republican ticket, and see if you cannot better afford to wait for some other method to express your dissatisfaction in. Forget all grievances until after to-morrow night; work unitedly and assiduously, and when the result is announced your conscience will not rex proach you if a Democrat be elected. * KILLED sy InprANs —The Helena, Montana Gazette, of August 19, gives the following particulars of the murder of Malcolm Clark, whose farm is on the Little Prickly Pear. “He was a graduate of West Point, and many years ago came to that Territory, married into the Piegan tribe, and raised a family of half-breed children, whom he had ed: ucated with great caro. On Tuesday night,Mr. Clark was treacherously murdered by a raiding party of Piegan Indians—a tribe whose interests were dearer to him than those of his own race,and in whose favor he was ever ready to argue. Two months ago the Indians raided off a lot of Mr. Clark’s stock. On Tuesday night a band of Piegan Indians, numbering about 25, ‘most of whom were acquaintances of the family, rode te the door and some of them entered the house. They were very cordial in their manner ; told him that some of their tribe had run off his stock two months ago, and some more two weeks since; that it was agajnst the wishes and desires of the tribe ; that they loved him; knew he had been their best friend, and that they had brought back with them his stock, and ifhisson would go out to the road they would give him back his horses, and help him to drive them into the corral. The young man went out but had scarcely gone three yards from the a gun. He went out to see what was the matter, and as soon as he reached the corner of the house, he too was shot.

CoFFROTH AND CooLips.—The Yreka Journal, in an article on the 12th inst., skins alike the current demas gogery of Democrats on the Chinese hobby. It says: “The inauguration of the importation of Chinamen was first established in this State by Democrats, and they tried, under the Tead of James W. Coffroth, some seven years ago, be~ fore the Republican party eXisted, to’ import and hold them to serve to pay. their passage. The authors of this Democratic address affect ignorance of this fact, and seem to be ignorant, also, ofa law of Congress, adopted in 1862, which peremptorily prohibits their importation, and an order to enforce that law having been lately issued by Secfetary Boutwell to the Collector at New Orleans. The Republicans don’t like a Chinaman any moré than the Democrats, but they are not disposed to bamboozle the people on falsehood and trickery for the sake of catching a few votes on prejudice. tenes -_—_oo er > Laborers, remember. that while the Democrats are pretending to be opattempting to introduce into the United States Chinese coolies by thousands,and the Republican administration has pro~ Gov.

States, and an ‘ex-Confederate BrigaAXTELL declared at the Democratic meeting held in San Francisco Friday night that, had he the power, he would strike from the California statutes the law which excludes Chinese testimony’ from four Courts of Justice; whereupon the Herald proposes that some such pledge as the following be exacted from all candidates for office a “Do you renounce, abjure, disown, repudiate and put from you with all your might, the damnable heresy of Mr. Axtell on the subject of Chinese testi~ mony; and all the other and more damnable heresies, by many professed and entertained, on the subject of Chinese immigration and Chinese suffrage.” Too Muck FoR EVEN Hiv.—The editor of the Nevada TRANSCRIPT, who is running for District Attorney on the Radical Ticket, finds that the Chinaman is too heavy topack in Nevada county, and he savagely drops John.
Deal’s recent political change of base is somewhat remarkable. , The above we copy from the San Franciseo Hxaminer, and the same kind of stuff is retailed over this county by a few unprincipled whelps. We are and always have been opposed to Chinese suffrage and Chinese immigration, and whoever asserts to the contrary is an unmitigated liar.
