MoFARLAND.. ‘Tue Democrats axp tae Erout Hour Law.—The Democracy claims to be theespecial protectionist of the inserests of laboring men, but. a brief glance at the history of the party will suffice to prove those claims by pocritial. and to demonstrate that Democrats’ have always been the enemics of the ax man: We will pass overthe — te cmd by the mouths of ‘in Congress, denounced itloe men as the “mud-silis of sociee ty"that they sought to degrade. labor W ths level of slavery, and to incu) the idea that slavery was’ the p condition of laborers; We will as mention the fact that Democratae ee leadérs afe now aqvocating the importation of a new class to be Subjected to s systeut of la every. and'“by tlis.means to force labor ‘to its. first position in oar “country, ‘from Whith slavery has just been eradicated by the Republican: party. We will only mention these things, and pas to the consideration of a matter which niust be fresh in. the minds of tho working meh Of this State. ibeulers remembered that the omallery bill, idiaenty known as tho eight hour law, was introduced’ into the Aisembly at the last session ofthe Legislature. This bill “provided that sig hit hours shall constitute day's ‘work . thronghont the State, and in this! for thé bill weht to the judiciary coni tee, the ‘majority of ‘whith were Sahoo : crats, The commit attached a prox viao, Containedsin section. 4 of:the act, to regulate'the hours of lavd? as it now stands upon ‘the statut’ book, and it was reported back. ,dfr. White, of this cédhty, a “Kepubtican; ‘ealled. atvention tO PNG fact, that the bill ,repealed the ten hour daw-entirely,rand ‘by: exceptions contained in section four, ‘left a large clas’ 6f laboré?s ‘in the State without any prowetion Wiiatever., Mr. Coggins of Sacramento then offered an amendment, providing. that (the: ten Hout law should not be repealed, oxcept so,faras «it wap effected by the proposed'law. All of thése amend-} ments were voted down by Democrats, andthe bill passed as it came from-the Democratic cotimities, and leaving the __majority . of’ working” fhén ‘Without any law. All -egriculturdl’ laborers’ may now be required to work rfifteen hours in a day, and-ean only obtaid “pay for a day’s work. The law therefore is a Democratic abortionjreducing the hours of labor of: a minority of Workiig mob, and leaving the large nyajority with any sProtection whatever. ‘This’ oy did after the defects had beeg puinted out and a remedy urged by *Repabhicans. How different. the coyrse of the Republican Congress on this question. By that body.all laborers were’classed in, the same catagory under a law passed, / providing that eight hours should constitute a day's work for all persons employed.on the public works, giving aveight hour law that would’ @itend to every man within the jurisdiction of the gowetnment. This law was to sone extent nullified by Yoktison, by reducing the pay, but Grant. restored the sime pay ashen the men worked ten hours. Even after tho passage of jour defective State law, ‘Haight . tempted circa be we shoald be paid the hour at rates they when workig ten hours per day. “These are some of the evidences of Democratic friendship for labor, and still dema gogues: bave the audacity to claim that the la_. -borer, is “under obligations to the Democracy. “GENERAL” WaLiLace.—A subscriber wishes to know how, when and whete, the above Democratic candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court obtained the handle to his name. We are unable to answer, says the Oakland Wers, oniess it was_throngh the bestowal upon him of the office of Attorney “General” by the old Know Noth. ing party of California. It is quite genérally understoad by the people that he did not win his star ih the service of his country. Perhaps it was woo fer his generalship in managing land cases in carly tines, against the interests of the settlers. His flank movement upon the City treasury,a few years ago, fur an eight thousand dollar fee for services never rendered, would have been a pretty‘good specimen of generalship if it‘had succeeded. Be that as it may, we will cheerfully ueccord to him the title of General on general principles. We haveto deal with him only asa candidate for a high office. .We gre wéll awase that ifthe General should succeed in his judicial aspirations, the next move he will make will be fora seat in the United States Senate. We shal] endeavor to keep an eye On, him, ¢ . and keep the people advised of such of t . his stragetic movements in that direction a8 we can manage to fathom. Genera Rosecrans SenENADED.— General Rosecrans was sefenaded i in San Francisco, on Tuesday evening last, says the Herald! under the auspices of the Young Men's Central Democratic Club. The General came to his window and thanked those preséht for their kindness. He said he hud the credit of being a poor speaker, and had no fear but on this occasion his character in that-respect would ‘be sustained. He had determined to: make California bis home’ And become a permanent resident here. The people of Ohio had nominated him for Governor, but he did not ‘gee how hé could be a citizen of two States. After some farther remarks the General withdrew amidst the plaudits of the assemblage. -_ ao ‘PaE Stock+on Association of California Pioneers held a meeting Monday, and invited the Sacramento Association to go cver theré on the completion of the Wésterf Pacific. Railroad and par~ take of their hospitalities, The Sacramentans have determined on Wednesdgy next as the day on which they will accept the invitation. ; .

The eclipse commenced at this point a little before 2 o’clock,and was at its greatest about a quarter before 3 o'clock, when the shadow covered fhore than one half the sun's disc. Dur-' ing the first half hour the mercury in the thermometer at. the South’ Yuba Canal Co's. office, fell from 112 degrees in the sun to 102, makinga difference of ten degrees.

WiLL Dis.—It was ot expected lastevening, says the Virginia Entei
prise of Fnday, that: Albert Springer, the man who was beaten over ihe head with a pistol by Robert Dedman a night or two since, pwould live tilt morning. His physician says he cannot recover. From a wound near the top of his head, made apparently. by the cock of the pistol, the Doctor extracted eleven pieces of bone and two or three teaspoonsiuls of the brain itself.
