The Campbell and Abbott meeting at San Juan on the evening o! the 7th instant was one of the best held in that place for many yearby either party. But big and satis‘actory as it was, the Republican rally at the same town night before last eclipsed it. In the early evening the streets were threnged with citizens of the town and. sur rounding country, and long before the time for the speaking to begin the Theatre was filled with as large an audience as it could comfortably accommodate. © John McCoy presided over the deliberations as Chairman,and he made a splendid officer, Hon. A. Walrath was the firs speaker. Unfortunately he had contracted a severe cough, and i was with difficulty that -he could talk. Despite the urtliction, however, he acquitted himself with credit and won golden opinions by the showing he made, Rev. J. Sims, in whose Assembly district San Juan is situated. made here the best uddress of the many good onés he has delivereu since the campaign opened. He has a happy way of telling oft-tul. political traths in a manner tha: gives them new interest. Eve: the warmest admirers of his oppunent, Mr. Ford—and ‘Tom?’ hia. a bost of enthusiastic supporter. along the Ridge—admitted afte: hesring Mr. Sims that the Fourteenth District woul:.-be ably represented if despite their votes the Republican parson instead of th: Democratic lawyer should goto th Assembly next winter. _ Hon. W. D. Long gave the Sat. Juanitesa good, square, sensible, eloquent talk upon the issues involved in the campuign. Mr. Long was one of the earliest mi yers on the Ridge, and the peopk 4 way of rallying to his support ‘hat will prove extremely embuarrassing to his competitor for the District Attornéyship when the returns of the approaching electio: come down from there on the firsi fuesday in November. Captain Rapp, the people’: choice for County Recorder, i is nor much of 2 speech-maker, but the vovers forgive him for that becaus« of the splendid manner in whicl he has discharged the official du‘ies they. entrusted him with » couple of years ago, and to which hey have decided to call him again. Frank Beatty, who is up for reelection as County Clerk, and it as-sure to meet with success as he is to get up in time for an early oreakfast this morning, can talk « ttle in pnblic when the audience won’t let him leave the ha!l unlest ae does, but he does not get much time. fur oratory when he is out o1 4 campaign tour. He has so many iriends wherever. he goes that they seep him busy accepting their consratulations and thanking them say of the way in which he manages the Clerk’s office. He is now right in the neighborhood of his young antagonist’s home, yet the aumber of his supporters in proportion to the popal.tion does not sppear to materially decrease on that account. Henry McNulty, the veteran miner of Moore’s Flat who bas been selected by the Republicans asthe man they propese to elect 48 the next County. Treasurer, is making a gallant and winuing aight. He will not only poll the cull vote of his party, but many and many a Democrat is rall.ing to ais support. Mr. McNulty, like frank Beatty and Captain Rapp, i3 not the eqaul of Demosthenes or Cicero asa speechifier, but he has a facuity of winning the friendship of those with whom he comes in contact that paralyzes and disheartens even us shrewd and efiective a politician as the sterling young gentleman wko is arrayed uguinat bim.

He has made and lost much money in the business, ‘losing more thun he made until he had no more to lose. He was one of the owners in the famous Lucky tine at Grass Valley with Deacon Goldsmith, Dr. Tompkins and others, and when that supposed oonanza petered, wrecking several # its owners, the old Mexican Veteran was-one of those who received the . runt of the misfortune. _ But this 1s getting away from the aubject of Republican meetings.

An Old Tale of Ne Nevada County's ; Early History Told Anew. In Mr. Bancruft’s Histury of California, vol. V., the well-worn subject of the fate of the “ Donner Party” is reviewed in a manner which is a great relief from the exaggeration of many accounts of this tragedy of the Sierra. The Donner party, comprising 87 persons, on arriving at Fort Bridger, resolved to take the ‘‘cut-off,” a shorter way to their destination, which, however, proved a moat difficult way, and they did not reach the headwaters of the Humboldt till long after the last train had passed. Thus desiitutte and belated, they began to realize theirdanger. Mr Bancroft gives a detailed account of the deaths of several members of the party region of Truckee and the luke subsequently numed Donner, by reason of the disastrous experience in question. On arriving at the lake near ‘the first of -Nevember, the snow was falling and was already several feet deep on the summit. As the writer observer, the worst of later calumities might perhaps have-been avoided at this time, either by an earnest and well directed effort to cross the range, or. by -careful preparation fora winter in camp; but there was no acknowledged and capable leader, no agreement in opinion, no unity of plan or action, only a wild desire for escape on the purt of some, a yielding to despair by others. For three weeks or more the frightened emigrants in small detached purties wasted their strength in frequent, frantic, and vain attempts to break through the snowy barrier; and when they had so fur regained their senses as to realize the necessity of concerted action, there came a week of storm with ten feet or more of snow, which required all the energies to be directed for u time tothe preservation of sife. Most of their cattle perished in the snow where only u few were ever found. The remaining animals were ‘slaughtered and carefully preserved. Great credit is given to the thorvugness and impurtiality of Mr. McGlashan’s History, and in summing-up Mr. Bancroft indulges in some charvcteristic remarks which affords an agreeable contrast to the rubbish that has been written about the cannibalism of those who survived. After according praise for the many acts of selfsacrifice on the part of many, .he says : ‘‘Most of them ate human flesh, and they did right. It was the necessity, not the act, which was deplorable; and the few who tthe promptings of stomach or conscience refused the revolting food deserve no special commendation.’”’ After weighing all the evidence against Keeseberg, the unfortunate object about which has crystalized all the popular horror excited by the cannibalism of the Donner party, Mr. Bancroft inclines to the verdict that the most serious charges against him had no foundation in fac. The mass of documents, from which he has constructed a narrative that is practically new, abounding in picturesque detail, and presenting the tragical romance ot this Sierra tragedy with a particularity and vividness it has never possessed in any previous record.. Romargi Robbed. A Camptonville dispatch says that on Tuesday last John Romargi, who is mining on Oregon creek, near Nigger Tent, was robbed by three men who tied him to his bed in hiseadbin. They only got about $5. A man from Gale’s mining claim heard his cries and released him. .
