Re mtteebling ae ai me ee lea Ses 3 WEDNESDA x, JUNE 17th, 1868. UNION _TICKET. fs ‘FOR PRESIDENT, _ ‘GENERAL ULYSSES 8. GRANT ‘For Vice President, _ SCHUYLER COLFAX,Time SuPrnacs Question.—Hadthe power of making @ platform for the Un_ ton party been given to Democrats, they . -would undoubtedly have committed the }party. in favor of Negro and Chinese suf. ¢rats speak aad write of the P. orm _ ‘would indicate that our o te claim thetight not only to what the principles of the party are, but creme tenets which they have ascribed to Republicans—they set up men of straw atid then knock them down under the ay Impression that they are fighting an _. Opponent, This is their course upon the suffrage question. They can point to no measure of the party: by which tn the States, and thé platform ‘airestly ‘ahd unequivocally declares that the regulation of the right of suffrage belongs to the States and not to the general government. . This is the position __ Of the Republican party on the suffrage question and it is fally understood by every loyal man as well as by every reading Democrat. ‘The election of Grant and Colfax will not effect in any manner whatever the suffrage question. “The position of the Union party on this < question is that which has been agcept_, @d by all parties during the history of the government, and the matter is left within the States as it bas always been ‘dn the past. But our friends need not think that the Democrats are going i in ” Cuffee has been their “battle poe in ~ the’past and Democrats are in deadly fear that he will become their equal— "Phe. “nigger””isthe “beogaboo” that Democratic leaders have to frighten their ignorant partizis into the traces. He has been thus far effective for this purpose and will not be abandoned now, _. because he is the last and best hold of Democracy. A thorough Democrat -ould no more talk politics ten minutes if there were no“‘niggers” than he could live without breath. This is the great reason why they insist upon making Republican platiorms. On reading it _ they find that the suffrage question is left to the several States to regulate for themselves. “They then turn from the platform to the leaders of the party and say, “some of the Republican leaders advocate impartial suffrage and we'll charge it to the party.” These fellows forget that Deniocratic leaders as well as Democratic journals dre in the same * position, and every man knows that ‘there is a vast difference between indi~~ vidual opinion and party creed. If the ey party is to be so judged, we are justified in saying that ‘because Brick Pomeroy "and other Democrats eulogise Booth, that the assassination of Lincoln was a party measure. If Democratic logic ‘applies they should have the full benefit of it and must abide its conclusions. We apprehend, “however, that people will not be deceived. The Union party record is plain and the declarations of their platform are clear. Every man may A soak for himself ae understand exactly the position of the party upon the suffrage question. . t i THE brickmakers of Sacramento,who have been on a strike fora fow days, . . paraded on Thursday to the number of sixty-two, headed by the American flag and martial music, They have dince a “one to work ab prices they de‘me Solano Press,says Vallejo “has everything necessary to constitute a e fow more houses aid Qu few more peo 3 sans . -FLATTEnine.—The ead pafone 7 geen — ) Saget has written letter toa friend in. frage.

LARGE Punses.—The Jockey Club will give purses to the amount of about $2,000 for three days’ racing. SALE oF FuRNITuRE.—A fine lot of household and kitchen furniture will be sold at the auction room, corner of Commercial and Washington streets tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. ‘Snootrse ScraPpe—Wm. Dannals, formerly one of the owners in the AIlison Ranch mine, and Phi). Galway, the Secretary of the company, had an altercation at the Ranch yesterday about business, in which two or three shots were fired by Dannals. We have not learned the result. Dannals came to. . Nevada and gave himself up. THR New York Sun gives a brief statement why the ineome tax is unconprovides that all direct taxes shall be levied upon the States in pro portion to their’ population. Congress has no power to levy any direct tax upon individual eitizens,and must impose such taxes upon the States and upon theni only. The income tax is a direct tat; it is levied not upon the States but upon individuals, and therefore it is unconstitutional, and cannot rightfully be collected of any man.” rameénto woolen mill were made under the. eight-hour rule. Worthington, Churehil) and Cate obtained’ the contract for $22,958. METHODI8M is making rapid advances in. Germany, Dr. Jacoby ‘says: “We have six thousand members, and six thousand Sunday school scholars. We are imparting new and solid benefits, we trust, to the Established Churches.” Sweden increases the number one-fifth. GREELEY says that he, and some others of the Republican leaders, ‘‘shoved off’ Grant as a candidate as long as they could. But finding that the people were “a unit,” the politicians had to give in, i THERE are 50 Methodist Churches in Philadelphia, valued at over a million of dollars, and with a membership of sixteen thousand, A CLASS. of twelve have graduated from the Theological raaaasied in Chicago this year. ; Tue Board of Rdncetion of San Fran. cisco recently elected 292 teachers, only 34 of whom afe new appointees.

The man says he went into Mary’s place, became drunk and was taken out) _of his pocket. He seemed to have beén so very drunk that he could not testify to facts enough to hold the defendant She-was discharged. A Hienu OLp J uRyY.—On Sasantay last, says the Grass Valley Union, the jury in the Recorder's Court failed to agree on a verdict in the case of Alexander Robbins, charged with violating Ordinance No. 14. A bottle of whisky and a deck of cards found their way into the jury room, and that legal body . c consulted those articles more closely than they canvassed the case of the de fendant. Recorder Taylor kept them together for» long time, and when the whisky had died dut in them, proceeded to levy fines for contempt of court, and then discharged them. A little fun is well enough now and then, but we can see no propriety in jurymen who are sworn to do justice, making themselves obnoxious to courts by such conduct. There were some few on this jury who behaved as men'should. GRANT THE SoOLDIER.—The Call which probably considers itself qualified to make a continent or demolish a world by its criticisms, undertakes. to { prove that Grant is no soldier as follows: “Grant has never given evidence that he. could have-won-the battle of Gettysburg as Meade did; that he could have done as well as Rosecrans
did jn the Stone River battle ;:that he could have marched through med as Sherman did; or that he could and manage a campaign as well as Halleck did.” ‘We do tot propose here to prove that Grant is @ great General because eyen his opponents who are honest admit that, bat simply quote in order to show the kind of argument used by Democrats to disprove his generalship, Why did not the Call continue and say that “Grant never proved that he could have won the battle of New Orleans as Jackson did, and therefore he is no great shakesas aGeneral?” Verily the Call ought to have a patent for its new } Tie bids for the erection of thé Sac. ™de of reasoning. THE Canadians have resolved to impose a tax of $2 per ton npon all American vessels coming into their waters to fish for cod. THE Government has accepted a bid for two. hundred thousand pounds of Oregon extra flour,at $3 40 per hundred, in balf sacks, Ina week, the connection of the Central Pacific Railroad‘track willbe made, and trains will be able to run to Reno, 55 miles beyond the summit, and 154 miles from Sacramento. THE amount of bullion shipped from Virginia. City and Gold Hill, the past week, was 9,272 pounds, worth $317,051 82—over four and a half tons of bul. lion. ‘ WELLS, Fargo & Co. offer a reward of $3,000 fer the arrest. and conviction of the three thieves who robbed the stage on the night of the 10th inst., a few miles east of Virginia city. NEWSPAPER AT RENO.—We understand that J. K. Lovejoy —“Old Piute,” is to be editor of a newspaper soon to be started at Reno, J. W. Corrrorn, of Sacramento, will deliver the Fourth of July oration at Placerville.
