Convention OR NO Conventions there is but one State officer to be elected this year, and that to a position of no political importance, it has been suggested that the Demoeratic State Committee should recommeud a suitable candidate, and not calla Convention. So far as we can judge this course would be satisfactory to the Union Democracy of Nevada county; but if there is any serious objection we hope it will be made known. The State Committee of course will act in the matter in accordauce with what they believe to be the wishes of the party; aod as nothing has occurred to render it necessary to either modify or make additions to the party platform it eoems to us that it would be better to dispense with a Convention this year. Consistency.—A “Union’’ meeting was held at Mud Springs, El Dorado county, oue evening last week, at which resolutions were unanimously adopted denonncing every one who should attempt in the present natiouval crisis to keep alive party spirit. As soon as the resoltions were adopted, the Chairman announced that the Republican Republican primary election was to be held that evening, and the meeting adjourned to the polls. Of course they were in favor of abolishing all parties but their own. Po.iticaL Cuanoes.—A gentleman who attended the Republicau Convention at Auburn, last Saturday, informs us that one of the delegates from the upper part of the county made a speech, in which he asserted that large numbers of Douglas Democrats were leaving their party and joining them, and. he bad beard only of one man leaving the Republicans.

Potter, the Secretary of the Republican Committee, publisbed a card in Say Francisco, June 17, 1 r. M.

Some 20 arrests were made by the police store, and the letter was in his possion pot less than an hour anda half before the Democrat was issued.’”?’ There is one important fact in this connection that be) up to 12 o’clock, last night. A passenger by the Goldeo Age says that the British man of war which went ashore at Natividad, 300 miles above Acaseems to have forgotten, which is this;, pulco, some time last month, had arrived at When Potter went to the store, Davenport . not being in, be left, was gone an bour or . more, returned, and delivered the letter. It was then, according to the best recollec. tion and belief of both Mr. Davenport and . Mr. Richmond, about five o’clock, at which time the Democrat of that day bad been delivered to all the town eubscribers, except afew in the outskirts. Thus far it would seem to be a question of veracity between Davenport and Richb. mond on one side, and Potter on the other; and here we should be perfectly content to . 44y from Salmon river mines, and give very leave it, knowing very well what the judgthere no other evidence. the Chairman and Secretary of the Republican Committee are endeavoring to make political capital by means of falsehood and deceit. They knew very well that Mr. Davenport bad some hours before the letter was banded to him, called a meeting of the Democratic Committee for Saturday, the 7th inst.; aud yet they indirectly accuse bim of,baving fixed upon that day after he got the letter from the Republican Committee. It was also known to them that as soon as Mr. Davenport got the letter, he came immediately to the Democrat . office to consult as to whether it would be possible to notify the members of the Committee in time to get them together by the $d inst., and that after full consultation, io view of the call already having gone ont, it was not deemed practicable to attempt il; and yet they have the assurance to intimate that he purposely put off the call until a day subsequent to the one proposed for the meeting of the two Committees, The action of Mr. Davenport, and the Democratic Committee, in this matter, has been frank, open and straghtforward; while the course of the Chairman and Secretary of the Republican Committee has been characterized by deception and falsehood. —Since the above was written and io type, we notice that the Transcript of this morning has returned to the subject again. It merely states that the letter was written “and ready to deliver,’’ in time for Mr. Davenport to issue a call in that day’s Democrat. But it does not state the pricise time it was delivered, aud that is the real question at issue, It seems, too, according . to the Transcript, Committee, judging others, probably, by their own crooked minds, feared that Daveuport would muke the excuse that it was too late to issue a callin that day’s Demo. crat, aod actually discussed the propriety of keeping a record of the precise time the letter was delivered; but it appears they merely noted the time when the letter was written and ready to deliver. It must have been at least an hour, and we think two hours, from the time the letter was written before Mr. Daveaport received it, aud at that time the Democrat containing the call for the meeting of the Democratic Committee, was lying on the counter in his store. Possibly the Srcretary is endeavoring to deceive the Republican Committee as to the time he delivered the letter; but the state. ment of the Transoript justifies the conclusion that the Committee, as a body, undertook to play a sharp trick, and overreached themselves.

Nothing has been done up to this hour, The Eastern line is still down. NAPOLEON AND VictTort1a.,—Napoleon, probably suffering an infliction of diabetes or perhaps indigestion, has snubbed Queen Victoria, and to balance the account, Lord Palmerston has given Napoleon a pretty smart knock on the knuckles. It happen in this wise. Acting under instructions, of course, Lord Cowley, British Minister at Paris, had an audience with Napoleon, in which he intimated that, if his Imperial Majesty had any _ se of visiting London during the Great hibition, Queen Victoria desired to place Desh. ingham Palace at his disposal, though she could not even for him, deviate ‘from her resolve not to receive strangers during her first year of widowhood. In the matter of this communication surely all was friendly and wellmeaning. Perhaps Lord Cowley’s manner made it less pleasant. At any rate, the on dit is that Napoleon, having heard Lord Cowley out, curtly answered that he did not intend visiting London, and, with a short bow, turned on his heel and stalked out of the room, leaying the poor wretch of an Ambassador ver much astonished and considerably incense Next day, the Monitieur had a paragraph stating, rather contemptuously, that there was no foundation in the report that the Emperor intended to honor London with his preseuce. This was the cause, the story runs, of Palmerston’s making such a decided speech, just before Parliament adjourned, in favor of the whole of Italy, the Popedom included, being under the sceptre of Victor Emanuel. Napoleon alone has stood in the way, since the war of 1859, of this unity of Italy being effected. . Palmerston, if allthis be true, has cleverly paid off Napoleon’s want of manners. agitated the above mentioned question. We should judge it met with but little doubt just now, if we can judge from the way that people assert that though the corpus dehanetus of the late J. Brown, Esq., is se in the ground and his knapsack hanging on a treee, “his soul goes marching on.” Buicrps.—Quol Lee, a Chinaman, who killed one of his countrymen at Chinese Camp on May 26th, and who was cominitted to jail at Sonora, to await his trial, anticipated his probable doom, and hanged himself in his cell. Cornacx.—During the month of May the followi amount of coin was turned out of the Branch Mint in Francisco; Gold—Double Eagles, $2,870,000; Quarter Eagles, $15,000. rw ver—Half Dollars, 42,000; Quarter Dollars, 6, 000; Dimes, 4,700.

It was also known to them that as soon as Mr. Davenport got the letter, he came immediately to the Democrat . office to consult as to whether it would be possible to notify the members of the Committee in time to get them together by the $d inst., and that after full consultation, io view of the call already having gone ont, it was not deemed practicable to attempt il; and yet they have the assurance to intimate that he purposely put off the call until a day subsequent to the one proposed for the meeting of the two Committees, The action of Mr. Davenport, and the Democratic Committee, in this matter, has been frank, open and straghtforward; while the course of the Chairman and Secretary of the Republican Committee has been characterized by deception and falsehood. —Since the above was written and io type, we notice that the Transcript of this morning has returned to the subject again. It merely states that the letter was written “and ready to deliver,’’ in time for Mr. Davenport to issue a call in that day’s Democrat. But it does not state the pricise time it was delivered, aud that is the real question at issue, It seems, too, according . to the Transcript, Committee, judging others, probably, by their own crooked minds, feared that Daveuport would muke the excuse that it was too late to issue a callin that day’s Demo. crat, aod actually discussed the propriety of keeping a record of the precise time the letter was delivered; but it appears they merely noted the time when the letter was written and ready to deliver. It must have been at least an hour, and we think two hours, from the time the letter was written before Mr. Daveaport received it, aud at that time the Democrat containing the call for the meeting of the Democratic Committee, was lying on the counter in his store. Possibly the Srcretary is endeavoring to deceive the Republican Committee as to the time he delivered the letter; but the state. ment of the Transoript justifies the conclusion that the Committee, as a body, undertook to play a sharp trick, and overreached themselves.

NAPOLEON AND VictTort1a.,—Napoleon, probably suffering an infliction of diabetes or perhaps indigestion, has snubbed Queen Victoria, and to balance the account, Lord Palmerston has given Napoleon a pretty smart knock on the knuckles. It happen in this wise. Acting under instructions, of course, Lord Cowley, British Minister at Paris, had an audience with Napoleon, in which he intimated that, if his Imperial Majesty had any _ se of visiting London during the Great hibition, Queen Victoria desired to place Desh. ingham Palace at his disposal, though she could not even for him, deviate ‘from her resolve not to receive strangers during her first year of widowhood. In the matter of this communication surely all was friendly and wellmeaning. Perhaps Lord Cowley’s manner made it less pleasant. At any rate, the on dit is that Napoleon, having heard Lord Cowley out, curtly answered that he did not intend visiting London, and, with a short bow, turned on his heel and stalked out of the room, leaying the poor wretch of an Ambassador ver much astonished and considerably incense Next day, the Monitieur had a paragraph stating, rather contemptuously, that there was no foundation in the report that the Emperor intended to honor London with his preseuce. This was the cause, the story runs, of Palmerston’s making such a decided speech, just before Parliament adjourned, in favor of the whole of Italy, the Popedom included, being under the sceptre of Victor Emanuel. Napoleon alone has stood in the way, since the war of 1859, of this unity of Italy being effected. . Palmerston, if allthis be true, has cleverly paid off Napoleon’s want of manners. agitated the above mentioned question. We should judge it met with but little doubt just now, if we can judge from the way that people assert that though the corpus dehanetus of the late J. Brown, Esq., is se in the ground and his knapsack hanging on a treee, “his soul goes marching on.” Buicrps.—Quol Lee, a Chinaman, who killed one of his countrymen at Chinese Camp on May 26th, and who was cominitted to jail at Sonora, to await his trial, anticipated his probable doom, and hanged himself in his cell.
