cece sre SUNDAY MORNING, th a homilies TICKET, x -ontYs.ome men now living may live to hear the “{ curses of an indignant posterity upon their _ UNION-STATE . For Justices of the Supreme Court. 0. L. SHAFTER, JOHN CURREY, : ‘he ie BEODES. ~ Yor Superintendent of Public Instruction, — JOHN SWETT. ‘For District Judge. i T. Be MeFARLAND. For County Judge, A. ©. NILES. War And SLAVERY.—Whatever has been done may be done again. Using slavery asa pretext, demagogues for long years declaimed against the government they.and ‘their party friends were administering, asworting that the government intended to free the slaves. No bill or resolutiut to that end " was ever introduced into Congress, or ever recommended by a* State Legisiature or popular convention. Still the demagugues declaimed at every cross road, every school ‘house, every popular assemblage, denounces ing the goverament, traducing the North; . and stirring up the ignorant passions of the . ‘Southern multitude. Po'thie plintér they ‘represented slavery as the normal cond'tion “oft labor, and all laborers as slaves, and they urged upon him that the government design. ed to cverthrow the patriarchal institution which bought and sold, scourged and chained the tillers of the soil—the christianising system of slave labor. To the’ poor white trash they urged that emancipation was ine tended to put them on an eguality ‘with the black, and compel amalgamation with them, which, under the slave system was confined ‘to. the first families. They resented the great growth of the North under free labor as an insult and aggression on the South.— Playing skill(ully this string they wrought up “the passions of the South. year after year, for twenty or thirty years, und thus prepared for the war which now aims ut the life of the. nation. ‘ Whe cause of this war is found in the incompatibility of slavery with permanent free atitutions, in that it furnishes a convenient and formidable weapon by which ambitious ‘demagogues may unite the masses within ite. influence against the public peace. Hence the rebellion has been strong where slavery was the strongest, and weak where slavery “Waa wouk. Had slavery been satisfied with protection without dominion it would never have been molested by the North or the governthent. But it has been thrown into the scale by its promoters, like the gauntlet ofthe ancient knight, and it must wow take the hazard of the war waged ia ite inter. ‘eat. The government in the inbeption of ~ thie war, and for nearly two yeara thereatter, “Wealt no blows at slavery, The tnonster that was darkemng so meny hearths, and enacting ‘@ Stupendous crime against civilization, would have escaped unscathed had the war ‘been earlier terminated. . : _ But the: great practioal questiod to be _ dealt with by the’American peopls is—shall this war be allowed to close with thie great ne of civil disseution in the baud of the “public foe? Itimay be suid that slavery can ‘ono harm to the public good in a state of peace. But the difficulty is that our sad ex» perience has shown that it is an inciting cause . of war: No, peace canbe permanent that: marries freédum and slavery. S'avery is from the nature of things, aggressive and de. structive; It is an element of political power, tempting demaguguee to activity, creat~ angobad passions, debasing the—white and ‘Violating the fundamental laws of the tepubKes. There can be to hope of future peace unless slavery is overthrown, War may cease forthe time; but it caimot be hoped ‘that the combustible elements that have, “been so readily kindled foto a dangerous flame .will not again'be ignited by the breath of popular’discord: By strictly constitu. ‘Viom 1 measurea—mengures authorized by the laws of war, the government is dealing with this giant adversary, this ted-handed implement of war, and it will be fale to the civilization of the age, thedestinies of the fore:the nations of the earth, if it stays ite eh very Snsitedillieneanatiietic ee SEPT. 20cm and sorrow, Ifby any weakness of the government, or treachery of the people to their [best iater— ests, slavery is entailed anew upon posterifathers who bequented to.them the bkiody patruggle the present should end forever! ‘Let Union men who weakly shrink from their duty in this crisis hear the words of one vf our most illustrious generals..

I have lived long enough in the South to see ita workings, its disgusting features, debasing the higher principles or ovr nature, warring with religion, and patronizing viee and im» morality.

This enlightened body had to perform the duty of canvassing the county vote recently, and illustrated notably their zeal for the purity of the ballot box. “Phe returns from Beals . Bar were first on the list. They were snugly wrapped, gummed securely the whole length, and well tucked in, but not sealed at the end. The bowMl held that they were not sealed at all, and they were thrown out. The vote was 17 for Low, 3 for Downey. Wildwood soun followed with 39 fur Low. 5 for Downey, and shared the same. fate. Two more precincts in which 44 votes were pulled, with Union majorities, were thrown out because the Board had not ‘appointed them—The people organizing for themselves They were in the new mines in Squaw Valley, , tnuch as the Clerks failed to carry out the result of their count of their tallies, either in words or figures, leaving nothing but the tal ly marks and the sealed up ‘ballots, from which to make an estimate; out they went. cate d&c., were handsomely, compactly and securely “sealed and confirmed,” but the ballots were simply enclosed therewith being unhappily geneither “sealed nor confirmed,” which glaring ontrage disfranchised about 200 electora, Horse Shoe was also thrown out, Antoine suffered in this wise: The returns from thie’ precinct, poll list, tally list. certificate, bal« lota etc., were “signed, sealed, enclosed: oonfirmed" and in an an-to-beagotiat-able conditiun geaerally, but Oh! appalling and unforgiveable offence, the ballots were not ‘strung upon twine !! wich diabolion] disregard of the turms and rules of law, was sufficient to disfranchiso all its voters. Well may the Stars and Stripes appeal to the adiniratiun of the State in behalf of Plag< er county for its possession of aach a disctiminating Board of Supervisors. After all this frivolous and. illegal tampering with popular rights the Union candidates retained ® meyority.
