‘Wat A MixTure !—Taking the course
of McClellan and the principles of the Democratic party as enunciated by the Chicago
‘Genvention, whe can reduce the chaotic
mass of professions to order? Let-us glance
. forw moment at some of the elements. of
“which that party is composed and we may
better account for ite many inconsistencies.
First the smallest element are those who
“elaim to be loyal Democrats; men who
profess to advocate the overthrow of the
rebellion and to be believe that this can be
only actomplished through MeClellan.—
. These nen-are overshadowed by the secession elewent in that party. The loyal ele~
ment is very small. Who are the leaders
of thie MeClgilan party? By their works
ye shell know them. Such avowed traitors
as Vallandighain, Cox and the Woods are
the men who controlled the Chicago Convention. Who are to advocate the election
of McClellan in this State during the coming canvass? H. P. Barber, C. L. Wel. fT
ler, Zack Montgomery, Street,Beriah Broy Dd.
and others, all of whom hold the Calhdun
view of the powers and limitations of the’
General Government. Hide it as you will
under the uncertain and ambiguous letters
vf McClellan, Mix the enunciations aos
you will with the show ofloyalty. The fact
that these men control the policy and the
acta of the copperheads is enough to entitle
every man who™bears the name of Demo.
~__ erat or advucntes the election of McClellan
© tothe execration of every patriot. They
are traitors, and tie party under their control will be used as an engine for the de»
struction of the Government.
The leaders of the Democratic party today hold-the ultra doctrine of State rights.
‘The natural result of such a doctrine is the
disintegration and dissolution of the Union.
A party ‘holding-that State sovereignty” is
superior tu the sovereignty of the Union
would never carry on a war to maintain-that
Union. It ie the height of nonsense for Me
Clellan to profess that he isin favor. of care
rying on the war againet the rebellion to the
lastextremity. To niaiutain the Union. at
every hazard, when the leaders and
spokeamen, and indeed the platiurm upon
which he accepted the nomination, finds nu
power in the Government to maintain: its
supremacy over the revolted States. “Mow
shall the war be vigorously prosecuted ifour
armies are kept idle while we are fruitless.
ly attempting to bring about pages by treaty’
with w power unwilling to accept any other
terms than independence or an acknuwledgment of the right of secession.
The old articlea of Confederation formed
a better government than the Demvcrate
would have ue believe exist in our present
Constitution.
How inconsistant js it far any man to
claim that he is in favor of prosecuting the
war for the Union and tu act with the Democratic party. The party: is composed of
every shade of political sentiment, pledged to
no single purpose buts suspension of hostilties and the suppression of all ultra views
aad weasures, The inevit-ble-fesult of the
elevation of that party te power, controlled

Editor Transcript : In your paper of this
morning I find an item tended, “A relic of.
the Revolution,” afid is afl about an ‘antiquated looking watch with an old looking ‘ins\
to have been “presented to Gen’ George
Washingten, by his many friends of Washington City, June Ist, 1776.”
Now, when we come do take into consideration that the site of the city of Washington was not selected till 1791, and no city
of that name having existed previously, it is
pretty certain that the engraving on your
Kevolutionary relic is bogus, and the time.
piece never ticked in the ear of the Father
of bis Country. 9s

It is true, as our correspondent says, that
the site of the city of Washington was not
selected until 1791, but the fouuding vf the
town might have been retrospective so as
to cover the case of this watele.) We understand that this same watch has “turned up”
®& number of times in this State, to the great
relief of local reporters, for it invariably
furnishes two good items.
GLonious News—Bia Guys ror tHe
Union.—The resent election in Vermont
and the more recent one in Maine, shows
gloriously forthe Union. The election in
Maine resulted in an indorsement of Lincoln
and Gront’s plan for putting down the rebel. .

branches of the legislature overwhelmingly
Union. The soldiers’ vote 1s not included,
but they, by # Constitutional amendment,
willbe permitted ta vete for President;
UNrortunatTe Occunrence.—A Jittle
daughter of Mr. Stevens, one of the proprietors of the San Lorenzo Hotel, in Santa
Cruz, swallowed a twenty-five cent piece
& few days since. It is probable, from sympreached the stomach, but haa lodged in the
@aophagus. She has been taken to San
Franciseo for surgical assistance.
~THEATRICAL.—An ex-elown of one of the
Gtrcuses has leased the Maryeville theatre
and proposes to ruo_it awhile, Lf he suo.
ceeds in keeping it open any length of time
he will excel any of hie trieks in the ring.
A clown’s bustiies is to juke, but to run
.a theater is no joke, »
ALTITuDESs.—Recent measurements in
Yosemite place the valley 4,060 feet above
the sea, Lake Teniah is 8,327 feet absve
the sea. The great sem'slome Tis-ea-ach
is 6,000 feet above the Valley, or over 10,000
feet above the sea. :
Gune In.—Hodges, one of the convicted
stage robbers, wae escorted to the State:
Priaon a day or two since, by Deputy Sheriff
McVarnahan of El Dorado. He is to stay
there twenty years, walls and Governors

Greenbacks Again!
A CARD has been published charging Me
Lone & Co. with paying a bill of $64 25 in
Greenbacka, but the author of the Card neglect
ed to state that suit was breught against the
Company), and as a consequence he was paid in
Greenbacks, NO AGREEMENT was made to.pay
the bill in GoLp Coin. Under similar eircumstarites we, as well as all sensible people, should
expect them, especially from the LirtrLe

The Greenback Question.
Aves TO McLANE & COMPA.NY’S CARD —In regard to suit being
brought, the facts are these :— For the past six
teen months we have dunned Melane & Company for the small sum of $64 26. some of the firm
i ing as the reason for not paying, that one of
the Compaiy had failed to pay his Assessments
and at the same time telling us that they would
like to have us bring suit as by that means the
one in arrears Would be obliged to pay up.—
Another of the firm telling us if we would sue
he would pay in coin—we py oe suit. ItLow
seems the object was moreto have an EXCUSE
for paying Greenbacks than from anv desire to
make the delinquent up, thereby effecting a
saving of about Two Dollars to each one of the
Company, which afmount probably is considered
of more een of ae te them than the name of be.
