"To Unton Mun.—During the next
month the Union Party will be called
upon to engage in another contest with
the Democracy, and it ‘is well for mem~"
_ bers ofthe party to get ready. The
* fate defeat should not discourage us,but
if its causes are properly understood,
‘should only arouse Union men to acs
tion. In this county the average. majority of our opponents is. about 200,and
this they secured without having added to the vote of a year ago more than
fifty, It is evident that a large part of
‘the Union strength was held in reserve
during the late contest, and a general
lethargy, caused by an over confidence,
pervaded the entire party,—the voters
did not come out, and we therefore
suffered ‘a regular Bull Run defeat,
"To carry the county in the approach.
ing contest for the Union party, it is
only necessary for the rank and file to
Every man in the party should feel that
he has a personal interest in the result,
and should work for the principles of
which the candidates are only repreThere is now no reason why there
should be division in sentiment. The
Fifteenth Amendment has been disposed of, as well as the questicns telative to Chinese immigration, and the
Union men now have the opportunity,
if they will embrace it, to unitethe
elements of ths party, arouse among
the voters an interest, and win from
the recent defeat a glorious victory.
The opponents . of the Union. party in
the State contest insisted upon making
@ party fight, and for this purpose they
nominated cundidates for the Supreme
Court upon a strictly party platform,
thus maki issue a party one.
Union mer are bound to meet it, and
we should meet it-as a united party, determined upon victory. The defeats
we have suffered and the soreness in
consequence, if any there be, should be
forgotten, and the beaten candidates .
should unite with a beaten party in a
determined effort for victory. :
Nevada county belongs to us, and if
‘we are true to. our principles. and ours
ablves we will carry the: county in October.
We say to Union men, bring out the
voters. Let every’man feel and act in
the contest that it is his fight, and that
his vote is necessary to win the battle,
and if each individual will do his part
Nevada county will roll-up a Union
majority. The recent glorious victories
of the party in the East should urge us
to action.’ Remember that. the State
was won a year ago because every indix
vidual in thé Union party made common cause the contest, and with the
same unit d effort, what has been done
may be ne again.. Union men of Nevada county, one and all, your effort is
required in the guod old party. Stand
by ite colors andyou may rejoice in.
victory. ‘
Wuat Coneressman Keiiy Says.—
William D: Kelly, who, as one of the
Committee of Ways and Means of the
House, recently visited California and
Oregon, furnishes a reporter of the
Washington Chronicle an account of his
experience. The statement occupies
six columns of that paper. He says the
two roads, Central and Union, are better constructed than any other new road
he ever passed over, California hé says
is a “vast exaggeration of Sicily. Her
soil produces everything that may be
found in Sicily, and in as far greater
proportion as are the territorial limits
of the great State in excess of those of
that-little island. From May till November rain is unknown, The farmer
having cut and thrashed his wheat,
suits his convenience to put iit im sacks
and sehd it to market.”

before he expired. The bite in the
arm was not discovered until after his
death. He seemed dull and scarce
able to speak from the first, or to gi
any clear account of the manner’ in
which the accident happened. He had
often boasted of his power over venom~
ous snakes, and seemed to have no fear
of them whatever. His common method
of killing rattlesnakes was to take
them by the tail, and, with a smart
flourish, break their necks, like snap~
ping a whip. On one occasion the
fangs of a snake he was serving in this.
way caught in the sleeve of his coat.
From the bite in his arm it is supposed
he was trying to kill the snake in his
usual way, when the venomous reptile
turned back on him. He -was-from .
Missouri, and aged about 57 years.
Last Saturday morning, about one
o'clock, a bold attempt was made to rob
the gold dust establishment of L. Mc~
Laine, in Volcano. The robbers succeeded in prying off the iron shutter of
one of the windows, by which they obtained an entrance to the building. Af.
ter getting into the room,they proceeded
to open the safe, but could do nothing
more than to get the padlock off that
held the strap,across the door. The
safe contained about $8,000 in dust and
coin.

No MAN Deserts His Corors.—The
Corvallis Gazette says: Some time since
an enterprising citizen of this county
wooed and won a dusky maid of the
tribe of Benjamin (Simpson) and was
duly married to the same according to
law. The “gay deceiver” has recently
deserted his better and browner half
this county, and the lady has brought
suit fora divorce, etc. A man should
not desert his-colors.
