TricKket.—The ‘combined efforts of those who are now ‘professing fealty to the Union party ‘and denouncing the Union ticket, seem. to be directed to making a less objectionable ticket, by nominating other candidates. No more foolish or injurious movement could be made, and if those who attempt to carry out such a plan will but look to the end with the purpose only to advance the interests ofthe State, they will find that the disaffected have taken the wrong track. That there has been great dissatisfaction in the Union ranks, in consequence of certain State nominations cannot be denied. In other parts of the State this has. existed more than in Nevada county, and it is ‘a fact against which we ‘wannot close our eyes. We are satisfied that much of the disaffection is founded upon a misapprehension of facts, and there really is not now any reason why Union men shonid be divided, but whether the disaffected have a real Cause or not does not-alter the case. It does exist, and to those who have felt dissatisfied with the Union ticket, in whole or in part, we would say a few words. Both parties have placed tick@ts in the field and adopted their platforms. In the latter you will find embodied the principles of each, and no loyal man can read them without being convinced that the ticket headed by Haight is pledged tocarry out the creed infamous during the war, and has since placed Andy Johnyon in the category oftraitors. The one headed by Gorham is pledged to sustain Congress and ¢arry out the principles of the Union party of the nation. Noman who is loyal should hazard the success of the Unien ticket by any act, ahd if it can be shown that any coursé is calculated te do 80, we are satisfied that Union men will abstain from it. The Union ticket was fairly nominated in Gonvention, and if any wrong was done, it is the faultof the very men who are now com: plaining ofthe ticket. In San Francisco and Sacramento they, with votes enough toturn the election, képt aloof from the polls and they now have-no reason tocomplain. It is not probable that the disaffected ones, representing a minority of the party, under these siderable support from loyal voters.— They cannot hopé to elect a candidate, and the effect of a nomination can eith: E ; : j d ‘the National Republican party, let us wait until after the conflict. i Cononen’s INQuEsT.—An inquest on the body of. John. W. Davis, killed in “Grass Valley on the 4th inst., by Henry ‘Sijvester, was held by Coroner Stiles. The following testimony we obtain from the Union: John Cashin sworn—I saw deceased and Mr. Loutzenheiser together; Loutzenheizer called me, and made some reI marks about some trouble, but I did not understand what; he stated that it was better to settle the matter some other day or place; I made the remark, “we ought not to have trouble to-day ;” deceased at that moment started to walk, and I followed him ; Davis and myself turned around the corner of-the drug store, on Main street, and just as deceased d the first door of the drug store from the corner, I heard the Teport of a pistol from the inside of Loutzenheiser’s store, and immediately afterwards I heard another report from the inside; the reason I know it was from the inside of the store, I heard the glass break ; Davis then ran to the upper doer of the store, and think he leaned the door with his left side; I looked inside the store, and saw Henry Silvester inside thereof with a pistol in his hand; it looked to me like a small new pistol’; the next thing I saw was Mr. Davis and Silvester clinched in the store; I don’t ‘knew how Davis ‘there ; after they were sepatated (I don’t know by whom, asthe crowd gathered around)! saw John W. Davis run towards the rear of the store ina bewildered manner; at that time somebody said, “there is a woman killed—take care of her—never taind Davis—there is nothing the matter with him; at that time Davis was either down on the ground or falling, when Davis said, “there is,” placing hand to his right side ; these were the last words Davis said ; I assisted in taking him to the back door of the store, and after a few-minutes he expired. Wm. Loutzeuheiser sworn—On the 4th of July, 1867, I was standing near the corner of my store on the sidewalk, between 1 and 2 o’clock, P. M., when I saw Silvester standing near the corner post of my awning ing with a woman ; I turned my back for a moment from them, when hearing a noise, or some confusion, I returned my gaze to where Silvester was standing; I saw Silvester down on his back, and in the act of geting FP ; I then saw Davis standing probably half a dozen feet from him ; Silvester got up, put his hand .into his coat et and took out! a four barreled Sharp’s pistol; Davis then ran into the butcher shop, on the north-east corner of Auburn and Main streets, and about thirty feet from my corner; Silvester remained standing about five feet from my corner towards the butcher shop, with his pistol in his hand, waiting apparentiy for Davis to come out; Iwent to Silvester and brought him to the front of my store, urging him to leave, but he would not, and remained; I then stopped on my sidewalk to see if I could not prevent Davis, if he came out of the butcher shop, from shooting, as I was afraid shooting would ensue; I stood there some two minutes; when I saw Davis coming out from theshop,and approaching towards my store ; . stepped across to meet him; and met him between my store and the shop; he had his right hand in his coat pocket; I told him this was no time or place to have a difficulty ; he made an effort to pass me, but Lbacked him up Auburn street ; I tried to coax him away ; at this time I lost sight of Silvester; Davis made a continuous effort to pass me ; Mr. Cashin then came up, and I made some kind of appeal to Cashin to help me keep Davis back ; Cashin did not understand the difficulty, I think, and he and Davis psssed along to the front of my store ; I followed; and as I came to the corner before I turned the corner ; and as the whole east side of my store is brick, I could see nothing of the shooting until I turned the corner; as I turned the cor jmer I saw Silvester and Drs coming together in my store, and about t kn “y wing retin wih neck ~~ ow, 0 , whether the last shot (there were three was before or after the to ; Isaw no ‘todefeat the Union ticket. Since the i vis at any time; don't know of my store I heard shots fired; this was. shots fired). came how ‘shot ; I was struck with the pistol after -the firing but don’t know by whom, as coming unconscious ; I don’t know how the party who was shot on the outside acted, I was so confused and scared after the first shot that I cannot tell much about the scuffle; there was nobody in the store at the time bit myself, Mrs. Granville, our two babies and the man whe fired ; the man had been standing inside the store, at the door, for. about -four or five minutes before he fired ; the east and middle doors of the store were open ; 1 was sitting at the east door when the party who fired came in; he awhile, and went and stood at the middle door which was open at the time when he fired; he had taken out his watch before he fired,and also had wiped the bleod from his face with his hand-kerchief; the back of his coat was covered with dust; when the party fired the first shot, from within the store, the man on the outside, who was shot, was walking along the sidewalk, and loo into the store; when the man came into the store he went for his revolver, and then kept it behind his back all the time until he fired it off ; he stood most of the time at the east door, looking wild and excited, and continuing to look out of the store; did not notice whether he cocked the revolver or not when he took it out of his pocket ; the instrument was a pistol about six inches in length, but don’t know from my own knowledge whether it was a revolver or not. oS Four Trips a Day.—On and after today, (Sunday) until further notice, Brown Bros.’ Grass Valley and Nevada Stage Line will make four tripsa day each way, as follows: Leaves Grass Valley at 8 a. m., 10} a, M., 2 P.

The popularity of the book is attested from the fact that already fifteeen thousand copies have been printed, and the demand is so great that over one thousand copies are printed and sold every week. The work contains 425 pages, is handsomely bound, printed on good paper and presents a. neat typographical appearance. An exchange, speaking of the book says: “The hearts of the masses aré moved by one common sympathy, one grand purpose of reform, one holy aspiration for advancement.— Strike the keynote of man’s elevation and regeneration, and all the world will
