‘Mong ov Tae Diryicuvry.~Many
Democrats. called on us yesterday. Yn-}88 quite a difference of opinion existed
reference to our statements in regard
to the difficulty on ‘Wednesday night,
and we went with seme of them to
show by what authority we made them,
and as we are always ready to do
justice, we will give the result. Wm.
Cross informis'\as that permission was
not asked forthe ,uge.of. the stand by
Mr. Crawford, but’ he was ‘asked, “Are
you through with the stand” and re~
plied,*Yes, for'tu-night/” We have no
doubt that this is what’ Mr. Cross
meant to say, and it is conclusive thus
far that. at the time the Union men
weat on the stand the Democrats were
through with it. The Deniocrats no
doubt believed that ‘the stand was a
joint one, and they also say that they
thought it was agreed that Republicans
should not otcupy the stand on the
same night with them. Now as to
this, Mr, Catley came to the Union
Central Committee, and after the Committee fixed upon the place for a stand,
built it, He ¢hen’cams to the Central
Committee and adked if they had any
objection to Democtats occupying the
. #tand and .was.anawered, “Certainly
-not,"and then, after the stand was built
under the authority of the Republican
committee, the first Democratic.meeting-was announced and that party con. __eluded to ogoupy the stand. We found .
that there was no each understanding
a6 that-itshould not be occupied by beth
parties the same night, but Mr. Carley
on his own authority said if two meeting were announced for the same night .
the firstannounced should have the
preference, to which no one would
object. When the Democrats heard
this, nearly all of them said that they
entirely misunderstood the matter, and
if they had known these facts they
would have made no attempt to interfere on Wednesday night. We deprecate all such proceedings, and hold that
as American ‘citizens all good men
should use their influence to prevent
them, and)we are glad that’ Nevada
Democrats. have given us the epportunity of saying that they eeted en Wed. .
nosday aight under a misapprehension
_ ot the facts, and that it they nad known
the state of the case there would have
been no distarbance, We will'also say
for Unies men that they had no intenVon, evem theugh they believed that
Mie right existed, of holding a Meeting:
~-wad that the only object they bad in
* ocoupying the stand was to cheer tor a
citizen who had been grossly aad outrageously maligned,
GENERAL La GRaNGE.—The Dis
patch of San Francisco, published a villaittous, false and ‘indecent slander of
General La Grange, one of our Presidential electors, In its issue of Wednesday it apologizes for the libel, stating that it copied the article from the
Oregon Herald without knowing any-.
thing in regard to its truth. Gen. La
Grange should make the propriétors of
that paper suffer for publishing: such
outrageous charges,

Tux Ghass VALLEY UNION ON THE
. Dist ons Anct.— The Gras ValleysUn 8” FW HF gan JoAN, GEL. Sth, 1868.)
-iomof yesterday has a statement that is
so entirely devoid of truth that we are
on Wednesday night. Jts first statement that Hambleton’s remarks were in
criticisms of a speech made by McFarland is not true. He attacked the judicial character of McFarland, and McConnell, who is ‘a Democrat, says’ his
remarks were equivalent to & charge of
corruption in office. Mr. McConnell,
Judge Reardan, Mr.Kirkpatrick, Jas.
K. Byrne, W. W. Cross, and Mr. Brown
who spoke from the same stand, all say
the assault was uncalled forand unjust, and all except the latter have practiced for years in the Judge’s Court.—
These gentlemen are all Democrats,
‘and some of them even went. so far as
to pay the attack was “dastardly, outrageous and as false as hell.’’\That
paper says secondly, a Tanner’s meeting was held, This is also untrue, but’
among Union men as to whether McFarland. ought to reply or not, it was
deemed best to consult, and a meeting
was called at the Club room, composed
of Union men. N6é Tanner meeting
was called and no company or battalion
organized. This meeting, which.was
only called that Union men could have
an opportunity to come to consult and
decide upon a course without disturbing the meeting. The Union, in speak‘ing of the proceedings, says: .
“We understand that two propositions were made to the Tanner’s meet—
ing: first that Judge McFarland should
reply, and second that the Tanners
would take possession of the stand.
The company, or battalion moved on
the stand, afver the Democratic speakers were through, and attempted to
light up the gas but were prevented by
Democrats who held possession of the
stand,”
e
Now this is untrue in every particular,
and the Union's informant made it out
of whole cloth. We were, present. at
the Union meeting and for the truth of
our statements we refer to Mr. Gallagher of Selby Flat, a Democrat, who
was also there and knows what took
place. It was no adjourned meeting,
but simply a consultation, Many .
a chance to reply, but after consultation ‘and some Femarks from “Mr. Sar
gent opposing such a course, it was decided that no meeting stould be held.—
It-was subsequently decided that Me
Farland’s friends should, after the Democratic meeting was over, give him
three or more cheers. Noone intended
or proposed to hold a meeting. The
Union again says a company or battal”
ion moved on the stand. This isanoth”
er untruth, No company or organization existed at the time,” Chas. Mulloy
stepped on the stand for the pur, ose ol
proposing three cheérs for McFarland.
Crawford tiad asked Mr. Cross if he
was through and he said “yes,” and
when the rush from the Democrats
commenced, and the Union does great
injustice to the Tannersin making such
a statement. We were present at the
meetings and happen to know that the.
purposes of the organizatlon is solely
political, and-that they would be the
last men either to disturb or counte~
nance the disturbance of any political
meeting. The stand was built for the
use and benefit of the Union party, and
the Democrats occupied it by the consent of the Union County Central Committee. So much for the article in the
Union. Wedo not know how it obtained its information, but we do know
that it is misinformed and we refer it
toany Democrat who is informed for
the correctness of what we have said
in this article.
DISTINGUISHED CoNVERTS. — The
Sacramento. Union says James T. Brady,
the distinguished Irish lawyer of New
York, is the latest accession of note to
the Grant and Colfax ranks. The New
York Sun announces authoritatively
his withdrawal from the “Lost Cause.”
His name and legal reputation’ are
known to the Irish citizens all over the
United States, and the influence of his
example will be great.
Chief Justice Chase has also declared
trict Court,
. for Grant and Colfax.

(Communtiecated.)
Editor Transcript @Last evening a
large and enthusiastic crowd of the’
Union nien of the ridge, together with
a great many Jadies, assembled in the
theatre of this place, to hear the Hpn.
Newton Bopth and the Hon. A. P. Dudley. Dr, Harris presided as the President of the meeting, with Dr. Stotlar.
and the Rev.S. D.Hamilton as Vice
Presidents, .Mr, Booth was introduced
to the meeting, and for about one hoar
he held the audience in rapt attention
by the eloquent, able, and effectivé
manuer with which he handled the
‘grave and momentous issues of this .
campaign. The closing peroration éf
his speech, was delivered in a most
beautiful style, and enchanted all
hearers, after which he retired from the
stand, and the applause and cheers
‘which followed himi all through his
speech, well. attested how high y it
was appreciated. :
But the old time war-horse of Democ
racy, put in an appearance, and amid
vociferous applause, the Hon, A. P
Dudley was introduced to the people.
For two hours, which seemed as minutes, did Dudley lay it upon the backs
of Seymour's “friends”; he showed the
cratic party in this State, which they
displayed by their avowed sympathy
with the rebels during the war, aud .
since ; their plots and schemes to plunge
California into the hell-pit of secession ;
their efforts now to assist and elevate
aguin into power and place such men
as Howell Cobb, Bob. Toombs, Wade
Hampton and the balance of the miserable scoundrels who, if they had their
deserts, would be dangling from some
scaffold, a ghastly warning to shun the
path they trod ; how Wallace, Kewen,
and “‘slippery” Dibble had once been
God-fathers and wet nurses to the old
“K.N.” party, and Coffroth the lovely
likewise. Now these men full of the diaKlux and Know Nothingism were
traveling around the country appealing
vote for them. Said Dudley, rising on
the tips of his toes : “Is there a foreigner within my hearing, who, with these
facts staring him in the face, will vote
for any of these men who years.‘ago.
tains to the sea, for the puitpose of se-.
curing your disqualification as an elector and an office-holder? If such there
be let him go’henee, hide his face for
very shane, and call upon the moun=
taing to-fall on him, and bury him and
‘his damning diegrace together.” ‘This
said with Dudley’s sonorous voice, and
sparkling eyes, it well nigh caused the
Repubs. to bring the rafters down
about their ears. It is impossible to
attempt to convey Dudley’s style of
speaking, the able manner in which he
discusses the questions of the day, and
his stories quaintly humorous. Mr.
the cheers and applause of the meet-—
ing. The meeting broke up. with
cheets for Booth, Dudley, Grant and
Colfax. Take it allin all. last night's
being densely packed, and the
wildly enthusiastic.
To-night a meeting will be held at
the office of Jas. A. Stidger for the pur.
pose of Organizing a Grant and Coltax

to the tanning of old Democratic hides
until the 8d of November next. We'll

Goop JoKE oN NEWTON Boorn.—
-Newton Booth was announced tg Speak
in one of the towns in this county. Thé
following conversation occurred bes
tween two Democrats :
1st Democrat. “Who is‘this Newton.
Booth ?”
— 2d Dem. “Well, I'll tell you. Do
you Know who assassinated Abe Lincoln?’”’ :
1st Dem. “Yes. Wilkes Booth.”
2d Dem. ‘Well, he isa second cousin
of Wilkes Booth.”
Ist Dem. Is thatso? By Q— we'll
get all the boys to come and hear him
and give him a bully reception.”
It is needless to aid that Mr. Booth
does not belong. to that family, and if
-the boys came it was through a misapinfamy of the leaders of the Demo. ,
bolismr of secession, copperheadism; Ku {~~
ANOTHER CoPPERHEAD Liz NAILED,
A feport was fi ciiculatiog a short
. time sings that Hon. David Belden’ was
stumping the Btate of New York for
Seymour gnd Blair. The following letter-was received yesterday by a gentleman in this city, which ‘explains itself:
New York; Sept. 25th, 1868:
a :—Yours duly received.
I cannoimagine how the report originated that I was for Seymour and Blair,
unless it was from the fact that I came
on with.the California delegation to the
Democratic Convention, and have had
the fate of “poor dog ‘Tray.”
Ihave endeavored to express my politieal preference for Grant, by speaking
for hius, swearing by him, betting on
him, and, up-to the date of these presents, have voted’for him about fifteen
times on steamboats, cars and the like ;and so strong’ is the old Democratic
leaven in me, that it will require a
strong moral effort, the tear of the law,
and the knowledge that it is not required, to keep me from voting for him
ouce or twice next November. And if
I thought my aid was required in your
canvass, or my vote to elect Sargent, it
would be cast in Nevada City, in strict
accordance with “Hawes’ Registry Act”
though I should Jeave the State the
next day. I am happy however to
know that no such journey is required,
and that’so tar as Copperhead Democracy is concerned, in the elegant vernacular.of Kit Burns (the unconverted
rat killer of Water street), “that vermin.
is nipped.”
The result of the elections in~ Vermont and Maing, particularly the-Jatonly asa stunning defeat, but as the
certain presage of worse to follow. No
one now questions but what Pennsylvania will go largely Republican at the
October election; and this result will be
taken as settling: the Presidential
contest. The jubilant tone of the Cops.
in this little village has wholly disappeared, and instead of expressing even
a hope for Seymour, they are struggling
desperately to escape a defeat for Hoffmnan and their State ticket, while the
Republicans are confident of carrying
the State for both Grant and Griswold.
I am certain the Republicans will
greatly reduce the Democratic majority
in this State, and should tue October
elections go as now indicated, I thin
the Republicans will carry the State.
Yours truly, DaviD BeLpDEN.

THe NATIONAL ON THE Row.—We
have in reply to the Union answered
inany of the false positions of the National, in relation to the disturbance
here. The National speaks of the Tanher meeting or clique. True, a meeting
of the Tanners was held for drill, but
it adjourned before the Democratic
meeting was organized, and no other ;
meeting of this organization was held
until long after the disturbance was over
when the Tanners went to sérenade
Dudley was repeatedly interrupted by !-McFarland.

Valley, and others will be, to keep peace
at political. meetings. All -right ; we
hope they will prove true to the purposes of. their organization. -Though:
the Tanners differ with them in politics they will always be ready and willing to join in the promotion of peace
and so will every good citizen of both
political parties.
