The St. Louis advocates bis social osftracism. Such talk, of . course, ‘amounts to nothing, exept to proyoke comparisons, and the mind in a moment reviews the campaign and the acts of the two prominent candidates. To gsin the nomination, Governor Hayes would not make a . promise ora ¢eombination. On the correspondence and keep books, and other hand, to gain his, Governor Tilden resorted to means which were never heard of before on the part of a Presidential candidate. He filled St. Louis with gamblers and roughs, aod actually, by force snd money, pored quartz and red ochre, with gold freely mixed with it. Four and balf days work panning out resuilted ia securing five pouuds of gold, Which is-worth $1,002. ‘The “iast 5 pan taken out on Thursday yieided $200, and the indications were then favorable fora continuation of the deposit. Oue of the Greens found a pocket near this name place several yearsago. The discoverers of the ledge think itis bata stringer which That 22nd of February Order. Io a few days, also, people will ‘gead about why the President would not allow a public parade of the white men in Columbia, South Carolina, on the 22ad of February.

Near by Jack Ragon is running a tunvel for another ledge, which’ the Greens think is the one their stringer is leading to. The section of country around there is noted for rich” pockquence. The people have been too wuch engrossed in thinking sbout the Presidential question to notice the fall extent of that order about parades. Now on the Fouarth of Jaly next, Grass Valley could bé probibjted from parading for that reason, since, on such oecasions, some iew in this place sre liable to get patriotically and royally drank.

If Mortun were Presideut be would go the fail figure.—G. ¥. Union. The difference, so far as we are able to judge, between os Grass Valjeyan who gets patriotically aad royally drank, and aSoath Carolinian under a similar condition, is this. ~ ‘fe Grass Valicy patriot loves his neighbor more when be is drank then when he is sober. He does not, as a rule, go afier the jugular of a weaker brother. with a bowie, nor does he get a squad together aud fire upon.a public procession. He does not, if driviug a vehicle, demand that o peaceable anid patriotic procession of citizens shall torn out of the way for him to pass, and if it does not, go to some secret rendezvous «nd gather together ap armed band to conipel the surrender of the citizens aforesaid, as is the custom in South Carolina. The event which trauspired near Columbia ‘last Fourth of ~ July, ig too fresh iu the minds of the people for them to very severely denounce the President for taking steps to prevent a repetition of a sinilar outruge or another genernl mussacre. The Rifle Clubs, under.command of Genéral Butler, did not hesitaie to massacre negroes without patise, last Fourth of J aly—wby ‘shouldthey hesitate to do it the following 22nd of February. It has been Grant's avowed purpose to maintuin the peace in the disputed States until his office expired. ‘To dothat, we presume he issued the order of which our cotemporary ¢owplains.

The Patrid Reminiscence, The Chicago Times ought certainly to be an authority in Democratic matters, considering+ that it was so long the recognized organ of the partyin Illinois, Here is whatit says now of its.old pals: “If there were any need of proof that the wandering minstrels of a fading habit of prejudice who go about singing sncieut ditties to the glory ofa putrid reminiscence, and styling themselves a Democratic party, are politically the most contemptible humbags that exist on God’s-green earth, the most ample and over-abupdunt proof would be the hopeless imbecility shown by the representatives and managers of that aggregation of humbags since the November election, * * * * * * The controlling section in the present House of Representatives is 4 body of spoils seeking politicians, almost beneath contempt for their feebléness and political aimlessness, it is the weakest,most pusillanimous and contemptible representutive body ever assembled at Washington. It is an aggregation of partisan odds and ends; a thing of ‘‘shreds and patches: a combination of crossroad _ politicians, Confederate colonels, ‘‘Granger’’ idiots, partisan mountebanks, aud polhtical charlatans of the lowest order. There are a few, very few, men of brains, who, with experience, would develop faculties .of stutesmanuship; but their puwber is so smialt and their experience so great that their influence a Hazexerre, the far-famed peiditer tramp, arrived.in Vallejo yesterday morning, from Sacramento. ‘‘The Pilgrim,” as he is called, is a curions character, He hastraveled all over the United States, andhe has worked in most--printing offices in the Union. He seems to be possessed ofa never-tiring desire to be on the move, and as soon-as he gets a -dollar or two, he will drop.a good job, ‘and move on to the next town.— Solano Times, Hays should avoid Baltimore on his route tothe National Capital to be inaugurated.

Randall was made Speaker of the Honse at Tilden’s dictation. David Dudley Field was sent to Congréss, that Tilden might have at once an able floor of the House of Representatives. The Oregon fraods are traced into Governor Tilden’s family; there were attempts to defrand Colorada of her points and exceptions everywhere, which show that a cunning lawyer was trying a case, and was determined to win, whether the law and evidence justifiéd the judgment or not. Which man shows the best before the people of the United St tes? Looking over the two records, which would an intelligeut foreigner conclude was the abler, the purer and the nobler man? And awiy. bebind alt this is the record between 1861 and 1865, and the lives of the two men outside of polities—of one against whom there is nota taint or stain, and the other, which is but the history ofasharp lawyer's practice, covered over with charges against his integrity, involed even now in defending suits in whic he is’ charged with fraud; and; finally, the spectacle of a-Presidential candidate seeking to-rdb another of his justly-earnedfame. Which makes the better showing.— Virginia Enterprse. _ >-+.>——Mining Labor. We quoted from the Nevada Transcripr, in our yesterday’s issne, ao item which said that miners are wanted in Nevada city mining district, and that good quartz miners could get work there. Some readers of this paper got the matter wrong and uuderstood as to say taat mining Superintendents of Grass Valley had applied to our reporter for miners. We expressly stated, in introducing the item copied, that Grass Valley bad-plénty of miners. Well, we put our fvot in it, soto speak, by mentioning the matter at_all. a tions were made to us yesterday, to know where that Saperintendent is, who wants to employ first class quartz miners.

And awiy. bebind alt this is the record between 1861 and 1865, and the lives of the two men outside of polities—of one against whom there is nota taint or stain, and the other, which is but the history ofasharp lawyer's practice, covered over with charges against his integrity, involed even now in defending suits in whic he is’ charged with fraud; and; finally, the spectacle of a-Presidential candidate seeking to-rdb another of his justly-earnedfame. Which makes the better showing.— Virginia Enterprse. _ >-+.>——Mining Labor. We quoted from the Nevada Transcripr, in our yesterday’s issne, ao item which said that miners are wanted in Nevada city mining district, and that good quartz miners could get work there. Some readers of this paper got the matter wrong and uuderstood as to say taat mining Superintendents of Grass Valley had applied to our reporter for miners. We expressly stated, in introducing the item copied, that Grass Valley bad-plénty of miners. Well, we put our fvot in it, soto speak, by mentioning the matter at_all. a tions were made to us yesterday, to know where that Saperintendent is, who wants to employ first class quartz miners. We had to say~go to Nevudsa City, from whenee the information came, We mention the affuir so that men wanting mining work need nut waste timein upplying for the sume ut this office.—G. V, . . Union. It is perhaps well to say that there is not a very great demand for miners here, although all who want work are busy, aud some more are wanted. It would not be advisable for men ata distance to come here expecting work fora large number of men at present. be wanted every week, now, as the new mires are gradually developed, batthe demand is not sufficient to Warrant a generalinflux.
