Prorracren Irriearion.—A late number
of the Culturist bas the@igfollowing on this
subject: “During a reeent extended tour
through mang districts in the mountains,
we everywhere saw that great stress was
laid upoh the best means to procure copions
irrigation of fruit trees. More than twothirds of all the trees planted in the mining
sections, have been eet on the ground which
. has bad no subsequent cultivation, the reliance upon water being made to preserve
the tree during the heat of a protracted
summer. In all such orchards, grass, weeds
or stubble is seen growing over the entire
space between the trees, which has the effect
to harden the ground so that it is impossible
for the roots to extend themselves. “The
plan of irrigation in these places is to let a
stream of water flowin a small trench
. alongside of the trees close to the stems;
this causes a bunch of thick, hairy roots to
shoot out just under the surface of the
ground, which particularly dwarf, if they
do not kill the tree, as the ground soon
dries up harder than ever, whenthese
fibrous sponge-like roots perish, Irrigation
to be beneficial, should be copious, and the
water kept at a distance from the tree, so
that the roofs may go a longer distance in
Great injury
is also done by late irrigation, as if the
water were kept on after the first of September, the trees are apt to grow so late
that the wood is pot matured when the
Then again,
bearing trees, which have developed the
fruit buds for bearing the next season, are
apt to be expauded into branches, or swelled so that they form @ roseate of leaves,
Our mountain amateurs would be far better satisfied
with their fruit culture if they would adopt
the plan of keeping their soil in @ mellow,
pulverized condition, than by such excessive irrigation.
Potirics iy Marrposa.—Mariposa county
has generally voted a Democratic ticket,
It will do so this year, It will go for the
regular old Democratic party, whose nominees, Douglas and Johnson, stand firm upon
the principle of non-intervenlion. For a
few weeks after the news of the Baltimore
Convention was received, there was some
little enthusiasm created in favor of the
Breckinridge Clubs were
started here, and in Hornitas; but time
rolled on, the full proceedings of the Baltimore Convention were received. The
people were satisfied that Douglas was the
. regular nominee—standiog on Democratic
principles, and they intend to support him.
The Breckinridge Club here bas entirely
They don’t pretend to hold
We are informed that such is
the fate of their Club in THornitas. There
is now no enthusiasm in their skeleton
ranks. They koow they are wrong, and at
war with the great leading principles of
the party. Many of them who profess to
be for Breckinridge will vote for Douglas,
but baving started out for the Bolters don’t
like to change. This county is for the regular nominees, Douglas and Johnson—the
principle of non-intervention on which they
stand, bas a deep hold upon our whole
people—it will continue to be the leading
principle of ovr Government. Factions
and sectional men may denounce if, but its
manifest justness is too apparent to ever
suffer defeat.—[Mariposa News.

Ponttics In CALAVERAS.—By correspondence from Mokelumne Hill, under date of
October 25th, we learn that notwithstanding large and flaming posters had been out
some time announcing the coming of Messrs
Weller and Gwin to address the people, the
whole affair was a tizzle. Gwin did not
speak at all, and Weller addressed a meager audience. Tilford declined utterly to
speak. A.P. Dudley, Breckiuridge elector,
has publicly proclaimed he bas made his
last epeech, and will do no more dirty
party work, McDougall, McCorkle and
Porter addressed the Douglas Democracy
. at Mokelumne Hill on the evening of Octo. ber 25th, There was a large and animated
. meeting, as we are informed.—[ Union.
THEY ARE ACKNOWLEDGED DISuNIONISTS.—
. The Washington Constitution, Buchanan’s
. organ, and the leading Breckinridge organ,
. destroys all claim of the Breckinridgers to
the title of a Union party, by denouncing
the declaration of Douglas at Norfolk, that
he was not in favor of disunion in case of
Lincoln’s election, in a constitutional manper, to the Presidency, and appeals ina
bitter manner to the sectional prejudices of
. the South to put bim down for that patrilotic declaration. The hell-hounds,
. doing their best to secure Lincoln’s election, thus declare their determination to
disso!ve the Union in case of his election.
Retrrep.—A. ©. Russell, after editing
the Portland News during two weeks, bas
given up the editorial chair in that concern,
while .
The Editor of the Campaigner,
The able editor of the Nevada Campatgner, in the last issue of that paper, says that
we charge him with political “tumbling’’
and “summersetting.’’
We have proof to sustain the assertion.
Let the Judge be judge of his own record—
we give his words ;—
“In fulfilment of the pledge contained in this
qualifying clause, we now raise the flag, recently unfurled by the Democratic National
Convention at Baltimore, bearing the names
of Stephen A. Douglas for President, and Herschel V. Johnson for Vice President.”
Are you now standing by that flag so unfurled by the Democratic National Convention? Have you not changed your position? Are you not now fighting under another and a different flag, and one that was
not unfurled by the Democratic National
Convention ?
Again, after stating that had you been in
the Convention you would have preferred
Breckinridge to Douglas, you then said—
“But the Convention thought otherwise :
as Democrats, we bow to the will of the
. jority.”
As a Democrat, you bowed to the will of
the majority. Have you “bolted” that
will, and are you not now bowing to the
will of (what you then called) the Seceders?
Again, you said—
“In taking this course we are actuated solethe OUR CONVICTIONS of PRINCIPLE and
Judge, thatis strong language. It ha
and it bas the ring of true melee easton
us if we insinuate that convictions of principle and duly are apt to linger around the
head and heart, even when the mouth
speaks and the hand writes against them!
Again, you said—
“As new circumstances and n i
arise, that Convention declares. the ‘oe ot
the party in relation thereto; in other words it
announces, at its quadrennial gatherings, the
Democratic PLAtrorM. The latter then
becomes the rule of action forthe party. From
that declaration there is no appeal. ‘To those
who remain within the pale of the party there
is no alternative but submission to the behests
of the highest tribunal. These constitute the
Democratic Creed; and he mc who does
to it is no Democrat.” gor verge
Jadge, bave you not taken yourself
‘without the pale of the party’? Tn your
own language—‘from that declaration, (i.
e@.) the Democratic Platform, there is no
appeal’ ep ten j is no alternative but submission,” “and he who does not asse i
is no democrat,” rcs
By your own reasoning, you, and those
who are now with you, are not Democrats!!
But again,in order that no one should
misunderstand you, you further said—
“Upon this ground we hold that those d
gates who made the adoption of the Platforn
at Baltimore, a pretext for seceding from the
Convention, thereby forfeited their ri
name of Taanoerats.” ai ica
Such is your language. Can you gi
any reason as a pretest for sappartiog ihe
Seceders. when the Secedershad none, If
they (the Seceders) “forfeited their right to
the name of Democrats” as you say they
A Be serene them is not your
eite i A bay: re you not “birds of a
Referring to Breckinridge as a eandidate
you said—
_ “We cannot but hope that on mature reflection he will withdraw the countenance of his
naine from what we regard as a factious hostility to the Democratic Party.”
Is that “hostility to. the Democratic
Party’’ now receiving your endorsement?
If ‘‘mature reflection’? had induced the
hoped for “‘withdrawal,”’ would there then
have been a ‘Nevada Campaigner’’ to bolster upa “factious hostility to the Democratic Party” ?—@rass Valley National.
“CircuMsTances ALTER Cases,’’—The
correspondent of the New York Post gives
an incident in connection with the oil ex.
citement in Pennsylvania: An old blacksmith bored in his back yard and struck a
vein. He at once became a man of position.
He had a daughter, who had blossomed into maidephood almost unnoticed and unknown, but who now became an object of
interest to the few young men in that small
community. It at once became a question
how to break the ice of former indifference
and to secure a favorable acquaintance with
this heiress of the oil well, For a while the
natural timidity of the boys kept them aloof;
but, at last, one of the boldest and best fa
vored among them determined to try his
luck, and on Sunday evening, attired in his
best, resolutely marched forward and offered to escort the damsel home. Imagine his
chagrin when she, turning on him
look of lofty independence that would have
. done honor to a Broadway belle, replied, in
language more severe than chaste: “Git
rie: You can’t come that! Dad has struck
