Phillips do’nt. But, if we are to believe the Douglasites, they are national. The reasons are given very lucidty in a cotemporary of ours, noted for being as clear as mud on all occasions. According to this authority, Douglas is a national candidate because . he was regularly nominated by a prrty authorized to speak for the party regularly . and nationally! It matters not what sort of principles he advocates. He is a national candidate because a party was authorized to make him so. How authorized 7 By the people? The election will say nay. By the Democratic States? The election must refuse to so declare. Why national? Because he wont carry the electoral vote of a single State—national then for the . woman's reason, “ because he is” But onr clear headed cotemporary will . say his principles are national. Not in any sense if they are repudiated in November as they have been in the State elections du. ring two years past. The assertion that principles are wrong and revolutionary be. cause repugnant to the sense of a portion . of the Union amounts to nothing. The doctrines of Christ are none the worse because they were obnoxious to some and at. tempted to be suppressed by fireand sword. The taunt of Douglas that Lincoln dare not Visit the grave of his father preaching Republicanism is that of a conspirator daring a gentleman to pass a dark alley where some of his bloody gang is in ambush. Doug'as has co much to say about popular sovereignty in the Territories, his time } might not be wasted more in vain, if he had . 8 word occasionally for free speech in the States. The most obnoxious slave-driving opinions will be heard atthe North without lynching the speaker, but there is no reci. procity of toleration. The fact that Douglas can visit all parts of the Union alike and promulgate his opinjona from the stump, is owing to the virtue of free speech being tolerated in one sectionAll he has to do to meke himself safe is to be the tool of the intolerant section, and he may be received there. The other section ia safe from its liberality. It does not follow that Mr. Lincoln's doctrines are wrong, in the South. with those of the fathers of the Republic, which is hard to be disputed,it would rather follow that something is wrong people who will not listen to them. been settled over and over, and as often revived by the ruling party of the country, is the cause of the intolerance met certain portions of the Union. mocracy is responsible for it, and for a with in dare not go where locofocoism has mude it ansafe for him, is but adding insult to injuty. It is the height of impudence. Hicguway Rospery.—On Tuesday of last mit, on the road between Placerville and Virginia City, and abont eight miles this side of Van Sickles Ranch. The was Wm. Guy Smith, of Virginia City, and formerly a resident ot Yankee Jims, County. sufferer -lacer At the time of the robbery Mr. Smith was on his return to Washoe. from Sacramento On bis arrival at the point ingapistol athim. At the same instant he observed two other men in ling double barrel shot guns ‘at him. three were all masked. requested them not to shoot, but was answered with a peremptory order to dismount. The Mr, Smith politely ty for him to dismount, they were welcome repeated in a tone that caused him, to use his own words, “to slide off that horse a little easier than he ever slid off one before.” The robbers then Mr. Sinith, pulling off his boots and tearhundred dollars found in Mr. Smith's pantaloons pocket, they said,‘ you have been below to get money—why have'nt you got were acquainted with Mr. Smith’s affairs Notand deliberate and had been on the watch for him. withstanding their rough in the wateh pocket of Mr. Smith's vest. On his asking them fora twenty to pay his expeases, the little chap refused, saying he “bidding him begone!” an order he was notslow to obey. For the foregoing particulars we are indebted to J. H. Bostwick Esq., of this city a friend of Mr. Smith, to whom they were communicated by the latter. Statz Dest.—Voters will bear in mind that a part of the old State Debt has not ‘been provided for. the people in 1857, to fund the debt of the State to the amount of $3,900,000 was not sufficient. More than a hundred and fifty thousand dollars were left unfunded. There ia November.

The Sav. people;and as we deem the matter of pars. !amotnt importance in the coming election, we must take it up once more, even at the . i risk of being tiresome. For it begins to be . apparent thatthe honor and credit of the State of our adoption is involved directly in this question. It will not do to raise taxation to'a much higher figure than it is . at present. It is enormous already. But With the multitude of officers we have to support, and the salaries paid them, with . the cumbrous and expensive system of gov: . ernment we now have, itis alinost an impossibility to savea dollar with which te} . lessen the State debt. It becomes us, then; . jto look about us and see by what means} the debt can be extingnushed in the time! allotted for the maturity of State bonds. Some might say, Let the debt alone—the increase in the valuation of property will gradually provide revenue with which to take care of the debt.

The question of a Constitutional Conven. tion comes up for the consideration of the people in this canyass,and we do trust that office holders and seekers, together with the bummers who pay no taxes, will be decent enough to stand aside and allow tax-payers ; to vote for the Convention.

AT Disecssion Avuisoy’s Rancw.—The } . Searls and A. B. Dibble, which previously agreed on, came off at Allison’s . Ranch on Saturday evening last. Judge Searls led off, as per agreement, in a speech one hour in length, stating the difference and the issnes between the Breckinridge and Douglas wings of the Democracy. The opening speech is spoken of on all hands as a very creditable affair. At the expiration of the hour, Judge Searls gaye the stand to . Dibble, who did not attempt to meet the is. sues raised by his opponent, but devoted his . entire speech to prox . Judge Donglas was regular and in accordjance with the usages of the party. . Searls replied, combatting in masterly st; . the points taken by Dibble.

Our informants agree that Searls had the best of the argument go far as logic is concerned.

On the aforesaid road sevsmty and . Seventy five tons freight have been daily drawn by one locomutive up an inclined plane with a grade ranging from 230 to 260 feet to the mile. The practicability of such grades being established, it is an im. portant truth to be taken into consideration by railroad builders in projecting lines It may beof the ut, byost importance to us situated as we are far up in the mountains and elevated more than two thousand feet above the ocean level. It certainly proves that there is no obstacle in the way of a cheap and easy communication by railway with the coast, A road can be constructed with steep grades to the yalleys, very direct in its course, and, considering the saving in excavations, ata very . low cost, which will answer all practical purposes for years to come paying for itself very soon from receipts from traveling . ‘and freight. As experience in the working of railToads accumulates many difficulties are considered slight, that were deemed insurmountable obstacles. Ten years ago a grade of a hundred feet to the mile was thought searcely practies!, and a thousand feet radius of a curve the least ‘o be attempted. Now, however, it has been found that improved engines can surmount grades of more than three hundred feet to the mile, while curves of less than three hundred feet radius are employed. The friction is more than on more level grades, and consequently the expense of running is increased; but not in that degree as With the perfection of engines, difficulties and expenses decrease. Nor are accidents on steep grades of morc.requent occurrence. The extra care necessary in working cars over such tracks has been found produetive of safety. No scident has occurred on the Virginia Cen. tral Road, and during many years the mails have never failed but once to be transported over the Alleghany mountains daily. As we before intimated, roads with these steep grades can be constructed with far less In this country this is an important consideration. As the State grows older and the facilities of communiexpense, cation from one part to the other increased, railroads can be built more cheaply than at present. Then the permanent railroad tracks of the State may be laid. In the . mean time cheaper roads, and paying ones, may be constructed, which will answer all practical time purposes for the wants of the people hereafter, or should improvements be required, the wealth of the country will have expanded to such an extent as to justify the change, and the expense will not be sensibly felt by the public. As the settler in a new State makes use of a comfortable but cheap dwelling } at first, and as his purse and family increases, builds an elegant mansion, so it! Cg ;may be prudent for us to act concerning . . railroads. Taxes.—We hear of complaints by the sive taxation this year. A Ranchman in Grass Valley says the As. sessor raised his valuation from $2,000, to . 32,500. after having set it down at the first sum in presence of the owner. there It is plain is something wrong, somewhere; either the law is in fault, or the officer. The farmers of this county are liable to have their property injured, by acts of the miners, fer which the law gives no redress. The farmer pays heavy taxes, while the latter pay none at all. Will not our Legislators give some attention to this matter, instead of devoting weeks to Bulkheads . } and Indian Wars? Deatn oF Fatuer Siatterty.—This disSisters of Mercy, on the 9th inst.

His disease . ture in it—with the singe remark that the sinking are proverbial for catching at straws, I proceed to unravel the riddle which the egotism of the Union persuades itself it has cunningly de. vised. . What are the points at issue? The editor of . the Union opposes Col. Edwards for the Scnate . because he yoted for the so called “thousand dollar act” of 1855. I might here impeach the . consistency of my antagonist by calling up the fact, that during the very session in which the . “thousand dollar bill” became a law, and while . the “indignation” was still fresh, he was found an earnest advocate of the election of Col. . Edwards to the Senate of the United States, . and only last year expressed a preference for . Burton, another supporter of the “infamous bill,” for Governor of the State! . Does it, in. deed, require greater purity and a clearer! record to fit a man to represent Sacramen. to County in the Legislature, than to sit in. the highest and most dignified parliamentary . body in the world, or in the gubernatorial seat . of the State, or does the Editor of the Union . . present another notable case of “straining at a . gnat and swallowing a camel?” . But I must not undertake the labor of a Jif-. time of exposing the ridiculous positions in . which the Sacramento Union may have been . found. There were allegations in its first arti. cle which I denied and prodtced the proof. The . allegations were, briefly; That the “thousand dollar bill” created a great indignation in all . parts of the State; that the bill contemplated . the payment of members of the Legislature, to . the extent of a thousand dollars each, before . services were :endered; that the credit of the} State was impaired and injustice done to her} creditors by the passage of the bill. To the first allegation, I replied, that there . was no indignation excited by the bill, and for . proof stated that some of those who voted for . . it were returned to the Legislature of 1856, none . bad been defeated for their action on it, and ; others had since been promoted to almost every . grade of office. How does the Union editor . meet this? By quoting extracts from several . } of the interior papers condemnatory of the } act. Do these prove his position? Far from it. . A great indignation Ido not take to mean a . . furry in a country printing office. The quotes from the Democrat of this city. the fault finding of the Democrat weigh the fact that the people of Nevada County . me an increased majurity on mz second trial . before them in 1856,and in the face of the para. ded fact that I was a supporter of the “thousand . . dollar act.”"?, Does the condemnation of all the . country papers cited by the Union prove cn in. dignation worthy of the name when the truth is . patent, that Farley, of Amador, was re-elected and made Speaker of the House in 1856, and . Beatty the year after; that Bates was made . Treasurer of State, Burke District Jadge of . the 3th Judicial District, Baker, county . Judge of Tulare, to sAy nothing of Burton, deville, Norman and many others, who have . been re-elected by the people? All these + ote . for that bill, and encountered no “indignation,” among the people for their course. The country papers which the Union quotes . probably took their cue froin the Union itself in . r.ference to the nature of the bill. Not being . . thorourhly acquainted with the Union at that . time, they gave some credence to its statements. . The Unyon’e rebuttal of the evidence I produce . is then but the echo of its own noisy queruleusness. Like the feolish youth in fable, the editor . has caught his own reflection in the water and . is dying in admiration of it. Itis a remarkable fact that the Union's “ indignation” was not so great as to oppose Col. Edwards for the United States Senate in 1855, nor to break out very furicusly against him till the year of grace, 1860. It appears to have . been nursing its wrath, growing madder and . madder about the thousand dollar act as time wore on, while the Nevada Dewoerat, finding its . own “indignation” ill founded or impotent, has become so mollified by time that it puts, with \ . pleasure, at its head, for re-clection to the Legis. lature the name of H. B. Hosmer, who stood shoulder toshoulder with Col. Edwards in sup. . port of that terrible bill. I met the second allegation of the Union, that . the bill conterrplated the payment of services ; before they were performed,with a simple denial, . and accused the Union of falsifying the record. . The Union rejoins by producing the bill as proof of the correctness of the allegation. But does . it prove the point desired, and is ititle only evidence to be adduced? I might here contend on tenable grounds that the language cf the bill itself sustains the posi. tion I assume, and that the phrase, “ so soon as . their services are rendered,” is authority to the . . point, and produee the repetition of the language of the bill by Gov. Bigler in his veto message as evidence of the original phraseology of it.— . But I have no need of such a resort. JT said in i my reply tothe Union that the bill never con. Union . Does pocket of each member of the Legislature im. mediately and before adequate service had been . performed, and that the Union misrepresented the facts. I shall prove it. The phraseology of the act amounts to little when taken in connection with the notorious fact . that there was not a dollar in the Treasury to pay the members of the Legislature, for many days before the bill became a law! The members contemplated paying themselves a thous} and dollars each, or a hundred and thirteen . thcusand in the aggregate, from a Treasury . worse than empty! It is absurd. But I quote . . from Gov. Bigler in further substantiation of iy pesition; He says: “The Treasurer reports there is no eash in the General Fund, and also the Controller and Treasurer concur in opinion that for the reason that nearly, if not quite, all the revenne aceruing under the last assessment, has been already received and disbursed, a sufficient amount of cash to meet the requirements of the Act will not have accumulated in that fund within seven months.” And, again, to show the construction put upon tle Act. t the time I further quote from the same veto message: . “Before deciding upon my own action in the j and Treasurer of State, with a view of ascerj taining the construction by them placed upon its . . . . -isions. Ts f e ‘ ve the nomination of . Branuan, who has money enough to purchase an .

For instance, the great staple article of the stock im trade of some parties, is the assertion that their opponents are not na-. The Republicans, having an or-. tfonal. genizntion in twentr-one States, and more yotes than any other party in the Union, is pronounced sectional and dangerous. eey supports him, and Lincoln an abolitionist because Garrison and Wendel! Phillips do’nt. But, if we are to believe the Douglasites, they are national. The reasons are given very lucidty in a cotemporary of ours, noted for being as clear as mud on all occasions. According to this authority, Douglas is a national candidate because . he was regularly nominated by a prrty authorized to speak for the party regularly . and nationally! It matters not what sort of principles he advocates. He is a national candidate because a party was authorized to make him so. How authorized 7 By the people? The election will say nay. By the Democratic States? The election must refuse to so declare. Why national? Because he wont carry the electoral vote of a single State—national then for the . woman's reason, “ because he is” But onr clear headed cotemporary will . say his principles are national. Not in any sense if they are repudiated in November as they have been in the State elections du. ring two years past. The assertion that principles are wrong and revolutionary be. cause repugnant to the sense of a portion . of the Union amounts to nothing. The doctrines of Christ are none the worse because they were obnoxious to some and at. tempted to be suppressed by fireand sword. The taunt of Douglas that Lincoln dare not Visit the grave of his father preaching Republicanism is that of a conspirator daring a gentleman to pass a dark alley where some of his bloody gang is in ambush. Doug'as has co much to say about popular sovereignty in the Territories, his time } might not be wasted more in vain, if he had . 8 word occasionally for free speech in the States. The most obnoxious slave-driving opinions will be heard atthe North without lynching the speaker, but there is no reci. procity of toleration. The fact that Douglas can visit all parts of the Union alike and promulgate his opinjona from the stump, is owing to the virtue of free speech being tolerated in one sectionAll he has to do to meke himself safe is to be the tool of the intolerant section, and he may be received there. The other section ia safe from its liberality. It does not follow that Mr. Lincoln's doctrines are wrong, in the South. with those of the fathers of the Republic, which is hard to be disputed,it would rather follow that something is wrong people who will not listen to them. been settled over and over, and as often revived by the ruling party of the country, is the cause of the intolerance met certain portions of the Union. mocracy is responsible for it, and for a with in dare not go where locofocoism has mude it ansafe for him, is but adding insult to injuty. It is the height of impudence. Hicguway Rospery.—On Tuesday of last mit, on the road between Placerville and Virginia City, and abont eight miles this side of Van Sickles Ranch. The was Wm. Guy Smith, of Virginia City, and formerly a resident ot Yankee Jims, County. sufferer -lacer At the time of the robbery Mr. Smith was on his return to Washoe. from Sacramento On bis arrival at the point ingapistol athim. At the same instant he observed two other men in ling double barrel shot guns ‘at him. three were all masked. requested them not to shoot, but was answered with a peremptory order to dismount. The Mr, Smith politely ty for him to dismount, they were welcome repeated in a tone that caused him, to use his own words, “to slide off that horse a little easier than he ever slid off one before.” The robbers then Mr. Sinith, pulling off his boots and tearhundred dollars found in Mr. Smith's pantaloons pocket, they said,‘ you have been below to get money—why have'nt you got were acquainted with Mr. Smith’s affairs Notand deliberate and had been on the watch for him. withstanding their rough in the wateh pocket of Mr. Smith's vest. On his asking them fora twenty to pay his expeases, the little chap refused, saying he “bidding him begone!” an order he was notslow to obey. For the foregoing particulars we are indebted to J. H. Bostwick Esq., of this city a friend of Mr. Smith, to whom they were communicated by the latter. Statz Dest.—Voters will bear in mind that a part of the old State Debt has not ‘been provided for. the people in 1857, to fund the debt of the State to the amount of $3,900,000 was not sufficient. More than a hundred and fifty thousand dollars were left unfunded. There ia November.

The Sav. people;and as we deem the matter of pars. !amotnt importance in the coming election, we must take it up once more, even at the . i risk of being tiresome. For it begins to be . apparent thatthe honor and credit of the State of our adoption is involved directly in this question. It will not do to raise taxation to'a much higher figure than it is . at present. It is enormous already. But With the multitude of officers we have to support, and the salaries paid them, with . the cumbrous and expensive system of gov: . ernment we now have, itis alinost an impossibility to savea dollar with which te} . lessen the State debt. It becomes us, then; . jto look about us and see by what means} the debt can be extingnushed in the time! allotted for the maturity of State bonds. Some might say, Let the debt alone—the increase in the valuation of property will gradually provide revenue with which to take care of the debt. It can scarcely be and wealth, her necessities will increase . also. We shall need another prison, imrrovements to the Asylum for the Insane, a!

We see no more mode proper this than by a judicious pruning of the government, lopping off everything which can . be spared, and reducing ex] to the most economical fi reach the evil is tl jform.

In many cases salaries are quite too high. These oughtto be cut down. There are several good and substantial reai . Sons to be given why the needed reforms . cannot effectively be done except by means of a Constitutional Convent difli. culties which lie in the path suggest no other mode. The question of a Constitutional Conven. tion comes up for the consideration of the people in this canyass,and we do trust that office holders and seekers, together with the bummers who pay no taxes, will be decent enough to stand aside and allow tax-payers ; to vote for the Convention. All those who support the government ask, is to take their {cash which now goes for nought into the . with it . and exti guish the four } illion debt the State oy Give them a! simple and econom rnment and the -d to a cypher. . .

AT Disecssion Avuisoy’s Rancw.—The } . Searls and A. B. Dibble, which previously agreed on, came off at Allison’s . Ranch on Saturday evening last. Judge Searls led off, as per agreement, in a speech one hour in length, stating the difference and the issnes between the Breckinridge and Douglas wings of the Democracy. The opening speech is spoken of on all hands as a very creditable affair. At the expiration of the hour, Judge Searls gaye the stand to . Dibble, who did not attempt to meet the is. sues raised by his opponent, but devoted his . entire speech to prox . Judge Donglas was regular and in accordjance with the usages of the party. . Searls replied, combatting in masterly st; . the points taken by Dibble.

On the aforesaid road sevsmty and . Seventy five tons freight have been daily drawn by one locomutive up an inclined plane with a grade ranging from 230 to 260 feet to the mile. The practicability of such grades being established, it is an im. portant truth to be taken into consideration by railroad builders in projecting lines It may beof the ut, byost importance to us situated as we are far up in the mountains and elevated more than two thousand feet above the ocean level. It certainly proves that there is no obstacle in the way of a cheap and easy communication by railway with the coast, A road can be constructed with steep grades to the yalleys, very direct in its course, and, considering the saving in excavations, ata very . low cost, which will answer all practical purposes for years to come paying for itself very soon from receipts from traveling . ‘and freight. As experience in the working of railToads accumulates many difficulties are considered slight, that were deemed insurmountable obstacles. Ten years ago a grade of a hundred feet to the mile was thought searcely practies!, and a thousand feet radius of a curve the least ‘o be attempted. Now, however, it has been found that improved engines can surmount grades of more than three hundred feet to the mile, while curves of less than three hundred feet radius are employed. The friction is more than on more level grades, and consequently the expense of running is increased; but not in that degree as With the perfection of engines, difficulties and expenses decrease. Nor are accidents on steep grades of morc.requent occurrence. The extra care necessary in working cars over such tracks has been found produetive of safety. No scident has occurred on the Virginia Cen. tral Road, and during many years the mails have never failed but once to be transported over the Alleghany mountains daily. As we before intimated, roads with these steep grades can be constructed with far less In this country this is an important consideration. As the State grows older and the facilities of communiexpense, cation from one part to the other increased, railroads can be built more cheaply than at present. Then the permanent railroad tracks of the State may be laid. In the . mean time cheaper roads, and paying ones, may be constructed, which will answer all practical time purposes for the wants of the people hereafter, or should improvements be required, the wealth of the country will have expanded to such an extent as to justify the change, and the expense will not be sensibly felt by the public. As the settler in a new State makes use of a comfortable but cheap dwelling } at first, and as his purse and family increases, builds an elegant mansion, so it! Cg ;may be prudent for us to act concerning . . railroads. Taxes.—We hear of complaints by the sive taxation this year. A Ranchman in Grass Valley says the As. sessor raised his valuation from $2,000, to . 32,500. after having set it down at the first sum in presence of the owner. there It is plain is something wrong, somewhere; either the law is in fault, or the officer. The farmers of this county are liable to have their property injured, by acts of the miners, fer which the law gives no redress. The farmer pays heavy taxes, while the latter pay none at all. Will not our Legislators give some attention to this matter, instead of devoting weeks to Bulkheads . } and Indian Wars? Deatn oF Fatuer Siatterty.—This disSisters of Mercy, on the 9th inst.

MAIL STEAMSHIP COMPANY, A record of proceedings shows that when . being. . Should they not be deemed adequate to the . His disease . ture in it—with the singe remark that the sinking are proverbial for catching at straws, I proceed to unravel the riddle which the egotism of the Union persuades itself it has cunningly de. vised. . What are the points at issue? The editor of . the Union opposes Col. Edwards for the Scnate .

because he yoted for the so called “thousand dollar act” of 1855. I might here impeach the . consistency of my antagonist by calling up the fact, that during the very session in which the . “thousand dollar bill” became a law, and while . the “indignation” was still fresh, he was found an earnest advocate of the election of Col. . Edwards to the Senate of the United States, . and only last year expressed a preference for . Burton, another supporter of the “infamous bill,” for Governor of the State! . Does it, in. deed, require greater purity and a clearer! record to fit a man to represent Sacramen. to County in the Legislature, than to sit in. the highest and most dignified parliamentary . body in the world, or in the gubernatorial seat . of the State, or does the Editor of the Union . . present another notable case of “straining at a . gnat and swallowing a camel?” . But I must not undertake the labor of a Jif-. time of exposing the ridiculous positions in . which the Sacramento Union may have been . found. There were allegations in its first arti. cle which I denied and prodtced the proof. The . allegations were, briefly; That the “thousand dollar bill” created a great indignation in all . parts of the State; that the bill contemplated . the payment of members of the Legislature, to . the extent of a thousand dollars each, before . services were :endered; that the credit of the} State was impaired and injustice done to her} creditors by the passage of the bill. To the first allegation, I replied, that there . was no indignation excited by the bill, and for . proof stated that some of those who voted for . . it were returned to the Legislature of 1856, none . bad been defeated for their action on it, and ; others had since been promoted to almost every . grade of office. How does the Union editor . meet this? By quoting extracts from several . } of the interior papers condemnatory of the } act. Do these prove his position? Far from it. . A great indignation Ido not take to mean a . . furry in a country printing office. The quotes from the Democrat of this city. the fault finding of the Democrat weigh the fact that the people of Nevada County . me an increased majurity on mz second trial . before them in 1856,and in the face of the para. ded fact that I was a supporter of the “thousand . . dollar act.”"?, Does the condemnation of all the . country papers cited by the Union prove cn in. dignation worthy of the name when the truth is . patent, that Farley, of Amador, was re-elected and made Speaker of the House in 1856, and . Beatty the year after; that Bates was made . Treasurer of State, Burke District Jadge of . the 3th Judicial District, Baker, county . Judge of Tulare, to sAy nothing of Burton, deville, Norman and many others, who have . been re-elected by the people? All these + ote . for that bill, and encountered no “indignation,” among the people for their course. The country papers which the Union quotes . probably took their cue froin the Union itself in . r.ference to the nature of the bill. Not being . . thorourhly acquainted with the Union at that . time, they gave some credence to its statements. . The Unyon’e rebuttal of the evidence I produce . is then but the echo of its own noisy queruleusness. Like the feolish youth in fable, the editor . has caught his own reflection in the water and . is dying in admiration of it. Itis a remarkable fact that the Union's “ indignation” was not so great as to oppose Col. Edwards for the United States Senate in 1855, nor to break out very furicusly against him till the year of grace, 1860. It appears to have . been nursing its wrath, growing madder and . madder about the thousand dollar act as time wore on, while the Nevada Dewoerat, finding its . own “indignation” ill founded or impotent, has become so mollified by time that it puts, with \ . pleasure, at its head, for re-clection to the Legis. lature the name of H. B. Hosmer, who stood shoulder toshoulder with Col. Edwards in sup. . port of that terrible bill. I met the second allegation of the Union, that . the bill conterrplated the payment of services ; before they were performed,with a simple denial, . and accused the Union of falsifying the record. . The Union rejoins by producing the bill as proof of the correctness of the allegation. But does . it prove the point desired, and is ititle only evidence to be adduced? I might here contend on tenable grounds that the language cf the bill itself sustains the posi. tion I assume, and that the phrase, “ so soon as . their services are rendered,” is authority to the . . point, and produee the repetition of the language of the bill by Gov. Bigler in his veto message as evidence of the original phraseology of it.— . But I have no need of such a resort. JT said in i my reply tothe Union that the bill never con. Union . Does pocket of each member of the Legislature im. mediately and before adequate service had been . performed, and that the Union misrepresented the facts. I shall prove it. The phraseology of the act amounts to little when taken in connection with the notorious fact . that there was not a dollar in the Treasury to pay the members of the Legislature, for many days before the bill became a law! The members contemplated paying themselves a thous} and dollars each, or a hundred and thirteen . thcusand in the aggregate, from a Treasury . worse than empty! It is absurd. But I quote . . from Gov. Bigler in further substantiation of iy pesition; He says: “The Treasurer reports there is no eash in the General Fund, and also the Controller and Treasurer concur in opinion that for the reason that nearly, if not quite, all the revenne aceruing under the last assessment, has been already received and disbursed, a sufficient amount of cash to meet the requirements of the Act will not have accumulated in that fund within seven months.” And, again, to show the construction put upon tle Act. t the time I further quote from the same veto message: . “Before deciding upon my own action in the j and Treasurer of State, with a view of ascerj taining the construction by them placed upon its . . . . -isions. Ts f e ‘ ve the nomination of . Branuan, who has money enough to purchase an . Provision The Controller stated that he would issue warfants on the General Fund in the usua! form, but would, in no case, draw his warrant ; until service had been actually performed.
