wwe fillows it to lie npon. the field antil it SATURDAY, SEPT. 18, 1860. ae UNION BREPUBIACAN TICKET. Sudieial ‘Nomzinations. For ‘Judges of 'the Supreme Court. LORENZO SAWYER, —_—s_O: C. PRATT. _ ‘for Iudge of the 14th Judicial District: ed T. B. MoPARLAND. "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.” ‘) Farrell was at work with a team about j}camp where everything was done for -successtul builders in this or any other .and fled the State. He hus property in sand dollars—the purchaser intending . skeich of Belle Boyd; the rebel “spy, of} mea E BiTs.— n Farrell, ways aot se Mer wg om niora \on_ a stock ranch in the San Ysabel hills,’ about Swenty-five miles east ot San Jose, was bitten in the right hand and arm by a rattlesnake, on .Wednesday last, caus» ‘ing his death on the following morning. ‘two hundred yards from camp. After he was bitten, ke immediately went to him by his comrades that it was possible for them to do, An application of snake weed to the bite in the hand reduced the swelling, and it was thought he was in a fair way to recover till just. 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. Contract LEtT.—The contract for the new Bank Building ‘to be erected by Admiral Farrigut, and occupied by r. Mackie; -of ‘Nevada ‘county, has been awarded to E. M. Benjamin, than whom there are few more energetic and State.— Vallejo Recorder. We understand that Admiral Farri~ gut will not be interested in the bank further than to own the building, Gen. Frisbie will be Mr. Mackie’s partner. a 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. THE trotting horse Hotspur, recently sold in Massachusetts for fifteen thous to take him to California. The stal~ lion, Robert. Bonner, hasbeen sold for ten thousand dollars, also to come to this‘coast. Weshall. soon have some of the best trotters, as we now have the fastest runners, in the United States. EE ne THE moulds for two propellers have been nearly completed at the Govern= ment foundry, and the metal will be poured about the 20 inst. One of the propellers is designed for the Ossipee, and will be the largest ever cast on this coast. In the course ofa couple of months it is intended to cast a still larger one for the-Pensacola, -.

THE Sacraménto Reporter hes a p column and 4 half inserted as an adER 3 d most scientific feat yet performed at Niagara is promised, says the Ontario Times, before the season closes, by a daring fellow, who proposes to cross the river without the employment of any such safeguard as.an.“undershot” velocipede, and, in fact, he will even dispense with the rope. . This new miracle, who, we presume, will claim the distinction of the ‘“Camadian Sinbad,” ‘designs taking an aerial flight across the chasm on wings ; and as wild as such an at~ tempt wopld seem, we can state as a positive fact that an apparatus is now being constraeted in this city for that purpose, We are not yet informed what sort of practice the new Professor has been pursuing, or concerning the principle of his fiying appurtenances ; but is would probably be advisable ‘for him to take a small flutter over the Dundas marsh before doing Niagara. A pispatcH from Salt Lake says: David and Alexander Smith returned from the Josephite Conference at Malade. City, Idaho, and yesterday recommenced preaching against Brigham’s authority and the orthodoxy of his Church. While at Brigham City, a Mormon town, they were watched by a secret police,and the names of parties: con~ versing with them taken down. After leaving, the man they stopped with was severely reprimanded by a Mormon bishop. — a v= + > ~~ . Sot Osy UF Sepeeminer, Some time since a citizen of Port~ land, Maine, had his pocket picked of $500. Shortly afterwards he receive?’ a letter from the thief, saying that he had started in business with his stolen capital, and that he should pay the interest on it until he was able to return the principal.
