: Aevada Democrat. Gex. Suretps’ Lectvre.—The Theater was filled on Thursday evening by an attentive and intelligent audience, to listen to Gen. Shields’ lecture on Jackson. We were somewhat disappointed in this lecture. As a literary production it will not bear criticism, and in our judgment he failed, in some respects at least, to do justice to his subject. The general design and scope of the lecture to sketch the career of Jackson, and of fils three most prominent cotemporaries, Clay, Webster and Calhoun. The military life of Jackson was happily sketched, and the incidents connected with the defense of New Orleans, as related by the lecturer, showed to good advantage how the indomitable energy, iron will, and self-reliance of one man can overcome every obstacle, and change the current of events, But Jackson was not a military man by profession, and the lecturer failed to give us any adequate conception of his capacity as a statesman. He dwelt at considerable length upon Jackson’s veto of the bill to re-charter the U. 8. Bank, and his successful efforts in crushing that monster institution, but searcely alluded to his course in putting down the nullification rebellion in South Carolina, In vetoing the bank bill, Jackson but carried out the principles of the political school of which he was a disciple. It is true, the moneyed, commercial, and manufacturing interests of the country were arrayed against him, anda man of less firmness might have quailed before the storm; but Jackson knew that he would be sustained by the voting population, and had but to wait for the storm to blow over. But the attempt of South Carolina to nullify the Federal laws required the highest order of statesmanship to crush out, and Jackson was found equal to the emergency. In that case the precedents of office were no guide; he had to mark out an original course to deal with a question in which the very existence of the Government was at stake, and the success of his policy proved him a first-class civilian. A gentleman who heard Gen, Shields’ lecture in San Francisco, informs us that a considerable portion of it was devoted to Jackson’s course in dealing with nullification, and we are at a loss to account for his failure to allude to that subject here. A lecture on Jackson, without any allusion to nullification, is like the play of Hamlet with the character of Hamlet omitted. His remarks upon Clay, Webster and Calhoun were necessarily brief, but showed a familiarity with their character as statesmen and orators. Sent Home.—A boy some twelve or thirteen years of age, who had been traveling with the Boardman Minstrels, was left in Nevada by that company, and for the past week or two has been loafing about the streets. It appears that he had run away from home, and that his parents, who reside in Sacramonto, were ignorant of what had become of him. Lately, however, they were informed of his whereabouts, sent for him, and the young gentleman was put aboard of the Sacramento stage which went down this morning. Tue Next Lecrurz.—The next lecture of the course, for the benefit of the Methodist church, will be delivered by Rev. Mr. McClay, on “American Aristocracy,” next Thursday evening. It was the intention to have the lecture at the church, on Broad street, but in order to accommodate a larger number of our citizens, and a fear that the church may be over-crowded has induced the managers to secure the Theater, where the lecture will be delivered. Dr. Wa. RANDALL, a well-known surgeon of this county, died at Grass Valley yesterday afternoon. He was about forty years of age, and leavesa family. He wasto have been . buried this afternoon by the Knighthood, of . . which Order he was a member, and the Nevada . BOOKS, STATIONERY AND wnto assist in the Brass Band have gone do " . Can and will be sold at REDUCED RATES, at the ceremonies. AN APpPLICANT.-—-Mr. Artemas Rogers, an . old resident, and formerly a prominet business . man, of Nevada, is an applicant for a position in the Custom House. Mr. Rogers was broken . up in business on account of losses sustained . by the fire of 1856, and our citizens have very . generally signed his recommendation. Mons. L. CeLante, who has carried on the . jewelry business for some years in Nevada, has determined to leave here, on account of the . health of his family, and take up his abode in Sacramento. Persons who have left watches . with him to repair, are requested to call and take them away. ANNouNCcED.—Mr. B. H. Rider, who has acted inthe capacity of policeman for nearly three years, it will be observed, is announced as a candidate for Marshal, at the city election, in May next. Mr. U. S. Gregory, the present Marshal, is also a candidate for re-election. Messrs. Brack & Hvuawes have recently . fitted up a planing machine at their Sash Factory, near the Court House, for dressing and matching flooring, siding, etc., and are prepared to turn out all work in their line at short notice and reduced rates. Wasnor Horet.—We direct attention to the advertisement of Mr. Bohannan, who has lately opened a first-class hotel at Eureka, on the direct road from Nevada to Washoe, and about twenty-five miles above this place. en Sn SEES tear speed on the Sacramento, On the Antelope beat the Nevada on the t but on coming up the next day, the Nevada was abead.
