Dear Sir—I am in receipt of your letter.
of the 22d inst.; stating that the Union.
meén. of ao county are preparing to
enter with unswerving purpose upon
the struggle that is just before us, and .
asking me how matiers stand here and ]
elsewhere. Also asking me if I can
give you any words of encouragement.
Before receiving your letter I had already addressed a letter for npeery

to see any great principle’ involved, and
considering the contest one of purely

The immediate futare is big with
events which must go far to consolidate
all who earnestly sustained the war
against rebellion. The opening of
Congress in November will be the occasion for go thorough an exposure of the
treasonable” es and practices of
Andrew Johnson ‘that these who have
failed to listen to arguments will speedily arrive at sound Conclusions from the
facts which will be placed before them.
Then will vur party in California be
in invincible, and the electoral vote
of the State be ingured to our national
nominee for the presidency whoever he
may be.
But meanwhile we are to hold.a judicial State election. I feel ‘confident
ot the success of our party in October,
for the reason that I believe thousands
of Union men néglected to vote on the
fourth inst., not Siasiabe of hostility to
any of the candidates, but merely from .
the indifference and inactivity which always prevails with some men when
success seems certain. These nien will,

A WORD FROM Seesea. —The Sutin
press and people. of the neighboring
State of Nevada watched the late .contest_in California with great interest.
The Virginia Enterprise, in speaking of
the contest, says :
“It is evident from: the retarns and
+ a character of the canvass that the
rty of California is largely
the majority, and that harmony
next to give it si
tbo ev hope the U men of
for . the State feel the hi of their-defeat keenly enough oke an earnest
and united effort in October.
The loyal men of the State are determined to redeem themselves’ at the
Judicial Election. The Democracy will
find that there are thousands yet in thet
State who have not bowed the knee to . ?
the Baal of Democracy, though they
4 did not vote at the last election. The
; . Supreme Judge and Superintendent of
Schools: will get at least 10,000 majority
if loyal.men are true to duty.
THE Washington Chronicle, a leading
radical paper, edited by J. W. Forney,
makes some statements in regard to the
reorganization of the Maryland State
sideration. The paid militia of that
State has been raised to 10,000, and
they are all being armed with Springfield muskets. Most of the men and
officers are returned and unrepentent
rebel seldiers or Johnson Democrats)
The Chronicle intimates that they are
to be used by the President to enforce
his peculiar pele views on reconstruction,
THE new Taken Law of Congress
provides that mortgages given within
four months before.an insolvent becomes
bankrupt may be set aside, and the
holders of the mortgage be compelled to
come in as other creditors. The. effect
of this will be to cause great caution
hereafter in accepting mortgages.
A Joxg.—Horace Greeley says : “Great
as Grant is he cannot carry our banner
unless he wears our uniform.” The
World comments: ‘The .imaginative
reader ‘is respectfully reqtfested to call
up the picture General Grant would
present were he to parade Pennsylvania
Avenue in Horace Greeley’s uniform.’
