When this is done there will be, aroused such a feeling of resentment -against Sargent, Gorham & Oo, as will teach this class of politicians a lesson they will not soonforges. — 1t is qujte time that this defamation of "personal ¢haracter should-stop, The people of California are tired of having abuse and vitaperation heaped ‘upon every citizen who is called from ' private life to the performance of, a public duty. The effect of this cow~erdlyonslaught upon goed men is vealéulated to render politics so unpleasant that none but the thick-skinned political rhinoceros will ever ‘allow his name to be used for public office. Wnless areformation™can be worked ia this respect we shall only have the most shameless class of citizens frem which to choose candidates. Now that is just what we have “thougbt for years, when the Chroni-cle, Bulletin et. al. have been heapai Le peated and howled and bellowed in “ing nfounded abuse and baseless charges against Sargent and others. It is just this kind of abuse and false -charges that caused Sargent tu say he was tired of theabusea public mas is -subject to,and that he would willingly step out of office to-day to avoid it. Yet-not one of the charges made ever had a foundation, but they were rehis ears from the:so called Independent press until hey became stale from fepetitien,) Lhe Chronicle has just diseovered the distinction between tweedledee and tweedledum, and if we are not mistaken in the -eharacter of Senator Sargent, it and its allies will ‘im the future have a »still clearer demonstration. Whe Ali Important Issue, ‘The Oakland Tribune, which is “gaying more things worth repeating be entirely satisfuc~} climate ofthe mountain regions differs from all the rest. Hence, no one need suffer for a change'of air. The mountains afford the pleasantest’places of summer resort for residents of the valleys and the sea coast, while the opposite rule holds mountains. The variety of scenery 4s-as great as is the variety of climate. ‘The largest trees in the world, the highest’ Waterfalls, the most “benutiful if not the highést lakes, are to be main thorowglfates of travel: No people in the world are more active and restless than Californians, and therefore, none need, relaxation and reereation more. Everyone goes on the high pressure principle. There ip a bopntifal supply of, oxygen.in the air, and men and animals live ata rapid rate.~ Nature seems to have provided wild scenery and. variety, of climate ‘for the purpose of supplying the change necessary, .and of late years, these advantages are appreciated and taken advantage of. Health being the thing offirst importance, everyone of the overworked residents of the State should at least Loncein a year, devote a few weeks . time to recreation and health seeking. A person can accomplish more in eleven months when strong and vigorous, than in twelye, when exhausted from over exertion and steady. confinement, While, the motntains, with their wild scenery, beautiful lakes and cool retreats, are quiet Edens of rest te, the excited and restless citizens of the metropolis, izens of the, yalleys, San Francisco affords a more desirable change fer a majority of the people of the State. The climate in Summer is'a delightful tonic for people of other sections, and:its varied attractions and amusements are a change that all like. It is fast becoming a summer resort, not-only for people of this State and coast, but for other parts of the Union. It has large and elegant ho_-w#han any of our sexchanges, in its last issue says: “Did it ever occur'to the average newspaper reader these days: of po‘litical poppycoek and more coming, uthat the great fight of the season is ‘mot whether this or that platform, ‘ticket or what. not, shall succeed in September, but-that it is simply a question of whether the Chronicle shall clean out the Bulletin and Call, on the score of political aseendency? This is avout the sum and substance “sof the dirty feast which We are all unconsciously partaking of. Merely ‘this.and nothing mere. The struggle has been hot and heavy for sey+ eral years, and it seemsin a fair way -of culmination, It is humiliating to think that all this fuss is really for the purpose of seeing which has the more bottom as a journalistic power ——~gnd humbag—Deacon Fiteh’ or Brother Pixley. Platforms ure already forgetten and cast aside as so much rotten lamber; and the camtels, and fora city of its size, it has the greatest number of them of any other city. Meb.they are alwiiys er Palaces-shall be built, they will algo be filled, ‘That city is, im fact, and will continue to be so. Fire. ‘The blacksmith and carpenter shop of R. W. Houston, situated on Selby Hill, about 2 miles from town, caught fire early on Friday morning last, by sparke from the forge, as-is supposed, and entirely consumed. By strenuous efforts of the family, and the assistance of neighbors, the barn and residence, which were in clese proximity, Were saved. The loss is about $500. Mr. 8. Nichols, who was building a hay press for Mr. Houston, lost his whole. kit ofttools, ‘which he kept in the blacksmith shop. This makes two fires which occurred on Friday in this vicinity. paign resolved. into one of crimination and recrimination, and a personal struggle for power and plunder, ‘There are goed: men on all the tick' .eta, but the Republicans and Demo-grats alone have the prestige of great "party orgapvizations throughout the -country, wrestling over national issues as well as State, with tickets of their best men. Surely the picture of California politics is anything but edifying or eunobling, As before -said, it is, chiefly a dying struggle for final supremacy between two or three journalistic ee Slickens for Potatoes. It issaid that the soil deposited by tthe discharge of water from the wmountain streams where miuing hus ‘been done, is what makes Wheatland so good: a point for raising potatoes. This soil needs no irrigation and potatoes grow in it of the largest and best® quality. That being the case we should think there might be many potate patches made along the Jine of the trany atreams in this ounty. ‘There ave hundreds of little valleys where the water from vereeks nnd flumes may be conducted and deposits made.

Oneis thé regular mail line, owned by Charles Sharp, and the other is the opposition owned by Sherman, Hogan & Co. This latter line connects with the stages running between Nevada City and Marysville, at Sucker Flat. .

This line is owned by Wellington & Cow Fare'to Neva. da City $2 50, There ia a tri-weekly line of stages from this place to Forest city. Staged leave from the latter place every Monday, Wednesday and Friday and-return the same day. Stages leave Forest city on the mornings of the sainé days, and eonPike city. This lithe is’ owned by Sherman, Hogan & Co., and carries the mail. There is also tri-weekly lines of stages to North Bloomfield by the way of Cherokee, North Columbia, Lake city ‘gud Malakoff. One of these stage lines is owned by Charles Sharp, and the other by Sherman, Hogan & Cd. Sharp carries the mail. These lines leaye here ‘for North Bloomfield every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday,and returns the same day.

Our article about the secret ecclesiastical influences that dictated the resolution of the Democratic platform in favor of a State Convention has stuck. People see the key of the puzzle, It is said that one of the leadersof the ecclesiastieal wing of the Democracy, by insisting on that resolution, secured its acceptance in the Committee which framed the platform, and the only remarks made in the Convention in favor of the idea of the resolution came from the similar source. squirme and evades the point. It says W. H. Seward favored a division of the school money in New York. We admit it and inquire what has that todo with the question? The Examiner may prove its sincerity and contribute to remove apprehension from the minds of many persons about the purposes of this Convention resolution by answering these questions. ~ ‘~“ , 1, Would the Democratic party, if it should get control of suck a Convention, vote in favor of keeping the School Fund inviolable as itis now? 2. Would the party. vote against any change in the clauses affecting ecelesiastical property. 3. Can the Examiner explain the motives which indueéd the commit-tee to adopt the Convention resolution, and the source from which it iuiime? a yas 4.

This makes two fires which occurred on Friday in this vicinity. paign resolved. into one of crimination and recrimination, and a personal struggle for power and plunder, ‘There are goed: men on all the tick' .eta, but the Republicans and Demo-grats alone have the prestige of great "party orgapvizations throughout the -country, wrestling over national issues as well as State, with tickets of their best men. Surely the picture of California politics is anything but edifying or eunobling, As before -said, it is, chiefly a dying struggle for final supremacy between two or three journalistic ee Slickens for Potatoes. It issaid that the soil deposited by tthe discharge of water from the wmountain streams where miuing hus ‘been done, is what makes Wheatland so good: a point for raising potatoes. This soil needs no irrigation and potatoes grow in it of the largest and best® quality. That being the case we should think there might be many potate patches made along the Jine of the trany atreams in this ounty. ‘There ave hundreds of little valleys where the water from vereeks nnd flumes may be conducted and deposits made.

Our article about the secret ecclesiastical influences that dictated the resolution of the Democratic platform in favor of a State Convention has stuck. People see the key of the puzzle, It is said that one of the leadersof the ecclesiastieal wing of the Democracy, by insisting on that resolution, secured its acceptance in the Committee which framed the platform, and the only remarks made in the Convention in favor of the idea of the resolution came from the similar source. squirme and evades the point. It says W. H. Seward favored a division of the school money in New York. We admit it and inquire what has that todo with the question? The Examiner may prove its sincerity and contribute to remove apprehension from the minds of many persons about the purposes of this Convention resolution by answering these questions. ~ ‘~“ , 1, Would the Democratic party, if it should get control of suck a Convention, vote in favor of keeping the School Fund inviolable as itis now? 2. Would the party. vote against any change in the clauses affecting ecelesiastical property. 3. Can the Examiner explain the motives which indueéd the commit-tee to adopt the Convention resolution, and the source from which it iuiime? a yas 4.

Such. speci_mens are goodarguments why temperance reform societies should. ba established. So long as a man retains his pride he will avoid being a common bummer, Of all things the lowest is bamniing whisky. The effects of this dissipation and an abandonment ef moral contrel over the passions and appetites is-shown in the following article from the Grass Valley Union of Friday: We underétand that there is a man . in the county jail charged with the crime of insanity.
