THE LABORER AND His FRIENDS. I: is surprising that laboring men car be so blinded to their interests by pre~ judice as to be led into antagonism to theparty which has ever been their best friend. The following is one of . the planks of the State platform: __ Resolved, That the Republican party, having ever,had in special keeping the rights of labor and of the laborer, and removed therefrom the blighting curse of slavery and inag urated a new era, in which the wages of labor have-greatly advanced; while the hours therefor have been correspondingly diminished, claim to have originated, in this. State, and steadily supported what is known as the “Eight Hour Law,” the sound policy of which has’ been proclaimed by a Republican Congress and by a procla~ mation of a Republican President made public works of the United States. i The entfre history of the Républican party isa contest for the rights of free labor, while on the other hand Democracy has been fighting for its degrada. tion. These facts can be demonstrated by reference to the acts of the parties. ‘Kvery attempt to make-labor subservient to capital, and bring into competion with. free Igbor a system which would reduce it to dependence, has originated with those who now claim to be its especial protectionists. Let the laborer ask himself who has heretofore made the Democratic. plat~ forms, dictated its policy. and. nominated its candidates.? Its life and destiny have been in the hands of politicians, whose only object has been to accommodate and satisfy the Southern leaders. The last national contest was fought by the Democracy upon issues dictated by the leaders of the South. Men of this class make the principles fot Democracy now as. they ever have done. In this‘view of the case, what can the laborer expect? Already these Southern Democrats are attempting to bring tothe country Coolie labor, an hundred fold more injurious to free laber than the competition of Chinese las bor now in this State, the great ‘evil being the faet that the proposed plan embodies in it all the elements of slavery, the Chinese to be bought for a term of years and worked in the South on the plarjtations. With tho Southern Democracy carrying out such a policy as this, how-ig it: possible for the little . remnant of the party in California to override their will; and dictate terms to those who havo always furnished the principles of the party. The New York World, the leading Democratic organ of the country, falls in with the Southern’ Democrats and ridicules the idea of the party making this an issue in the canvass. It will thus be seon that the California Democ” racy are. without sympathy among their friends and are powerless to do what they pretend to desire. Those laboring men who leave the Republicans will find themselves betray. From the Repuljicans the laborer has aright to.expect help, Judging trom the past policy and the faithful adhereage toe froedom, the future may be jall the votes cast; and was legiti. mately the presiding officer of the Con-after raise such a charge in the Conven/—The Sonoma Democrat says: CharThe Daily ~ Beanscript, [pee connec he lishment of any system of slave labor.

Not So.—We are informed-by dele~ ga‘es just returned from the State Cons . vention at Sacraments thet the statement of, Frank Pixley to the effect that ! Judge McFarland, who occupied the Chair, did not receive a majority of the . votes of the Convention, is not correct. that the statement is wholly untrue. . McFarland received a clear majority of vention. The Sacramento newspapers should, in justice to all parties, give the facts,and not allow a false impression to go abroad, detrimental to the character . of the Convention or any member of it. It is somewhat singular that after the Judge was unanimously declared clected Chairman of the Convention, on mcs tion of Pixley himself, he should long . tion, endangering its harmuny and injuring its character.

The position taken by the Lords. bas created_greatexcitement. ~The streets are placarded with bills asking, “Shall the people or the Lords rule?’ The London News warns the Lords that “an irresponsible debat ing society” can not withstand the will of the nation. Two CaLiIForNIA Ex-CoNGRESSMEN. I¢y Scott and Joe McKibben were élected to Congress from California’ in or about 1857.. There they divided on the Lecompton question—Scott for and . McKibben against. The war broke out, and Scott entered the rebel army, and: McKibben that of the patriots. What McKibben is doing now we know not, but Scott and he are both alive, the formey¥ publishing the Wilcox (Alz.)

Soon after, another‘man named John Stewart entered the shop with a double-barrelled shotgun on his shoulder, and addressing Sinclair, asked him why he had abused his father.
