i booked’themselves at the C _. Wat-on Unton.Men.—An idea seems Be: prevail among some of the political manTagers in this State that all that is necessary to dispose of a min’who stands in the way is:.to.raise the cry of copperhead, and no _ matter what.the past record or the character of the party'assailed, his fate is sealed. They _ denounce ien who have stood by the Gov~ ernment since the first voice was ‘raised in behalf of treason in Congress, who .were friends of freedom and the North, and stoed up.for free territories when the hatred and‘even the violence of the chivalry was inear‘yed'thereby. It is time that these foolish “assaults. should etase. Those who engage’ in them are neither actuated by a love of country nor influenced by a desire for the wel_._ fare-of the Union party. . Their motives are "selfish and they work for—the-overthrew of ~§ some man who stands so far above them that he cannot be disposed of by any other means. When it become necessary that loyal men should band together for the pur‘pose of maintaining the nation, old parties were or should have been torgotten. Upon abroad platform of “Union at any cost,” Douglas and Seward, Butler, Dickinson and Brady, could write ard battle shoulder to shoulder for the country, and any man who has shown a clear record ‘since the appeal to arms-by. the rebels, is entitled to. full -felJowship in the Union party. ‘We are led to these remarks. by the war whichis now waged against the State Librarian. Mr Strafton fas since the war hegan been, we: ~ beéve, a true friend of the nation, or he would have been removed by the Legislature. Hydenfeldt and McConnell were. — ousted beeause they were not true. Every . effort was made to get out-Stratton at the same time, and if there was any foundation ‘ for the charges which are now being made him, fhey would have beén used there, and a loyal Legislature, such as we. had Iast “" winter would have removed him. He is an excellent officer, and to.bim alone is due the® éredit of making the State library what it is. Every man who is true f9 lis principles will frown upon those meh whoattempt to accom, plish their selfish purposes. by oa unfair . means. The Appeal truthfully rustle as follows { upon the read fromthe Back Bone House to upon the effect of such a cour irse as is propoded by the enemies of Mr. St ratton: “When the Union party comes to make antecedency atest of worthiness of office, or sincerity of faith, then there is an end to the organization, Then the Union party . repudiates Union principles, and the party disbatided, and reverts back to its original A lements. . ‘The Union party becomes a Reublican, or Douglas organization, aceord. } . ing to numerical strength. If we look back to-tte:,organization if will be found that we, extend the right hand of fellowship to all, aid “Union” was made the only test. “Mi. Stratton accepted that invitation,-and has acted fait sbfully with the organization. He who chargeshim with dishonesty and hypoe_ risy’assumes a high responsibility, and must elaim to‘know hisheart. He makes charges of the most serious character, and such as —po-manhas-the right to-do without the powér of omniscience, He not only assumes high personal responsibilities, but he sets a. precedent for the disruption of the party,” and the overthrow and defeat of the prineiples for which he assumes to have so much “reverence. He tells every Breckinridge man inthe Union party thatthey are fit to aerve in the ranks, but cannot be trusted with a. commission. Every Union man of _ Breckinridge antecedents, is informed that tecedents are discarded at the polls, but hen office is to be: distributed, antecedents are tobe revived. Can Union men, se belying the principles of party, lay claim to honesty i pasa coeat t they true to the eause of the Union, or the spoils? This rinciple has not prevailed withthe Federal . “Women or the State Goverment; neitherin the army or civil service. will, ifthe Union party is what it professes. We hope that the Trustees of the State Li-, brary will act wisely in this case sued Mr. Stratton.

The sheet consists of one leaf, . about ten by fourteen inches. It is dited in the year 1710, or 64 years before the De‘\-elaration of Independence, but it is well. inted and in good preseryation.

Company's office for Sacramento, The “gay and festive” young gentlemen who have.“‘tipped the light fantastic” nightly. remarked “‘it is 'sad to part.” The establishment was about to close and the farewells were said, when Marshal Venard, who had an attachment for the fair ‘Ones, interposed . an objection to their departure. “Yesterday motning “Steve” went out to look for witnesses and these of course must be obtained from among those who engaged in the festivities of the preceding night. They must be men of respectability in order that the testimony might have weight with the jury. ‘We took apeep at the names on the sub-.} poena, but-we den’t intend to make them ‘piblic Suffice it to say. the jury thought the-witnesses reliable. Yesterday-afternoon the Marshalescorted the ladies from the lock-up to the Justice's office. The case is, one of considerable_interest and the Court . rvom was crowded, They were arrested for the violation of a State iaw against the establishinent of Hurdy Gurdies or. dance houses. They should have been prosecuted long ago. It is an outrage that such viola= tion of law is permitted to oceur nightly for stop it. But it is said that “justice is blind” and it might with truth be added her officers are frequently inthe same fix. We areglad that the. initiatory-has beentaken and‘ we hope.in the future the laws will be strictly enforeed. Such an institution as has exist¢din this town for the past five weeks is a‘] nuisance and: under “the lww: it should be ‘abated. The hurdies” demanded separate . trials, and inthe ease tried yesterday: the jury, after being out a few minutes, returned with a verdict of guilty. The other cases will be dispgsed of to-day.

Among others, they prospected tha. “Fisher Cabin,” an old °49-er, in which various parties of miners have successively lived. They found no treasure, but under the old decayed flooring, they found a part of a human skull, in a good state of preservation, the skull-cap, or brain pan only, with no other:--bonesof remains of the human frame. How came it there? They also’ found an oaken chest or safe, about eighteen inches in length, made of four-inch plank, firmly banded and bolted with i iron, fastened ‘with a three-bolt lock. This chest had been bursted in from the outside; so'that a man’s hand could be inserted through the aperture. The chest was evidently prepared. to hold treasure, and was. of capacity sufficient. to contain many thousand dollars. No one now living in that vicinity has. any knowledge of the party who may have had this safe, and it would seem, from all the circimstances, that the owner was not the party who cut it open.
