FOR SUPERVISOR—ist District, ‘JAMES MONRO, A» ‘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, RAILROAD AccIDENT,—We learn that a locomotive attached to a freight train, exploded at Clipper Gap, yesterday, and killed three menthe engineer and tWo firemen, JouN RUNDLE: w-native of England, was yesterday naturalized in the Dis— thought that McFarland ought to have oly three persons were on the stand 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. * fident no attache of that paper was present at the time-of ‘the disturbance’ -to the Irish, French, German, &c. &c. to traversed this State fromthe moun-” “meeting wasa spleidid one, the theatre (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
‘Tanner Company, to be wholly devoted to the tanning of old Democratic hides until the 8d of November next. We'll tan ’em well here, for the boys are very RapDIcaL, meeting 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 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. THE Grass Valley Union says four 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.
