To-day the people of the United States join in celebrating the ninetyfifth anniversary of the nation’s birth. Every American should cherish the patriotic feeling that is called forth by the obsetvance of this day, It commemorates not only the birth of @ new nation, but the establishment of a new theory of Government, namely, the, right of -the people to participate in the formation of government, and as the outgrowth of this, freedom of conscience and religious liberty. The nation has passed thruugh severe struggles, in order to maintain the declarations made in 1776, none of which have been so severe.as the last, when State. was. arrayed against State in deadly conflict. The result, namely, the maintenance of the Union, overthrew the last hope of striving for the downfall of Republicanism, and vindicated the strength of a Government of the people against internal strifes as well as foreign enemies. sented in the counsels of the nation. It only reniains for uiiversal amnesty to be declared as the crowning act of the great drama in the nation’s life, The growth of the nation, even during the last decade, with so exhaustive a war, has been no less remarkable than the rapidity with . . which the great national debt has been reduced, But recently an event has transpired, showing the crowning glory of the American idea of justice betweeh man and mian,. atid its exemplification between nation and nation. We allude to the’ work of the Joint High Commission of Great Britain and America, While two great nations of the world were engaged in deadly conflict to maintain or overthrow the balance of power, the Representatives of America and England met for the purpose of reasoning-together as to the grand differences between the two countries, with a determination to settle’ the differences in accordance with justice. They succeeded, and as a re‘sult we have the Washington treaty. The Alabama claims, the rights of neutrals in war, the fishing question, and the boundary question, which only a few years since came very near producing war, ate all settled, and bloodshed avoided. The result is an honor to both nations, and an example which will have its influence ‘upon the civilized world. It speaks volumes for the greatness and glory of our beloved country, ow ati at False Pretenses. By our Grass Valley letter it will-be perceived that Brown, the Democratic candidate for Secretary of State, doesn’t approve of the ‘‘new departare’’ platform adopted by the party in this State. We are somewhat surprised that he should come out blantly, and denounce the very platform on which he has been nominated, end which he is pledged to carry out in case of his election. By such declarations the people can judge how much reliance is to be placed in Demeecratic professions. It is clear that the party leaders are endeavoring to attain power by false pretenses, and that their pretended acquiesence in the constitutional The war is’ _ past, and evcry State is now. repreDemocratic Meeting. Grass Variey. July 2d. 1871. Editor Transcript :—Last night the ~unterrified held their first meeting of the campaign fA this place. With * the aid of a brass band, of large posters placarded oyer the county, andother advertisements, they got to gether a congregation of perhaps two or three hundred of both parties. The meeting was called to order by Dr. Davis, and cries for Watt for Chairman were only eqttaled by similar cries for Taylor for the same posi‘quandary how to proceed put the question on the first named gentl® man, and as the ayes and noes were about equal, I-stippose gave the casting vote in favor of Mr. Watt, who took the stand and made quite a lengthy speech about the Amador affair and Gov. Haight calling out the militia. The speech either proves that the Governor , did wrong, or upon the miners of the State. Two years -ago they used the miners’ strike in Grass Valley against the Republicans and did not attempt to stop at the truth. Of oné° Grass Valley Republican they reported-in one place that he was opposed to the miners, end in another place that he was Secretary of the Miners’ League. The principal speakers of the evening were Judge Searls, a Mr. Lawrence of Reno, and the candidate for Secretary of State, a person with so many initials that the easiest way to get at his name would ve to call him Alphabetical Brown., These and all the lesser lights went with a vim after the scalp of Pacheco. Mr. Brown did not recognize the ‘‘New Departure.”’ He believed that only white would make the. purest government. He, however, told some truths, He said ‘‘the Democratic party had erred, for to err was humart;’’ hence I suppose the Democratic party is very human. Also, ‘‘the Democratic party had done wrong.”” And again, “the Democratic party had not always been right.” These three truths every Kepublican in the United States” will say amen to. It is said. that.‘‘open confession is good for the soul,’’ and we might: suppose that the gentleman of the alphabetical name was really repenting of his sins political, only he cannot accept the one plank of his platform which would prove (if the faith was sincere) that they are on the stool of repentance, and really taking back tracks on all they have done for the last ten years. A little incident occurred which ought to be recorded. The speaker was laying all the blame of bringing the Chinese to California upon the Republicans, when a poor old man. who had never voted a Republican ticket in his life, simply said ‘the knew better, for the Democrats brought them here.’"’ The remark Was not heard ten feet from where he was standing; but he wes ignominiously seized by the neck by a Demoeratle policeman, dragged out of the crowd, and perhaps would have been locked up had there not been some parties with a little more humanity who followed to intercede for-him. ai Those who heard the fearful yells aud cheers given four years ago for the Democratic ticket all during the campaign, and heard the attempt at cheers on Saturday night, would proclaim the meeting a failure. In fact the numbers diminished perceptibly from first to last; and it is the hope of your humble servant that they will grow beautifully less until the ides of September shall declare Newton Booth at the head; which ticket carries with it the very best platform of principles ever advanced by any political party in the State of -California.
