The hills that echoed it in fifty-six have caught again the well known slogan and shout it to the sea. The clans are gathering. Upon the one side, the vultures, the jackale of Federal power, that live only in the corruption of government, are grasping in despair at the power about to be wrested from them forever; while upon the other, in their giant strength, come the cohorts of the people—they come as came their sires in the struggle of the Revolution, armed with the right, to battle for themselves in the context of to-day, which decides whether the government is the servant of the people. or the people. the serfe, the vassals of the government. It is a struggle in which corrupted power is arrayed againet an incorruptible people; in which each man decides for or against himself; in which each freeman must fall prostrate before the Baal of an Administration, or renew his fealty to the freedom of the people. With euch issues the result cannot be doubtful. The people can only full by their own hand. Armed with & just cause, and battling for their own righte, they are invincible; and in their strength alone lies the national safety, for the government that conquers the people must stand upon the ruins of American Liberty. With these parties and this issue, the result is certain; and te-day the voice of California, from her golden mountains and her fertile plaine, will ring across the sea, proclaiming to her elder sisters, that where American Freemen rule the People asloue are Sovereign. Look out for Spurious Tickets. Voters willdo well to be on their guard against being imposed upon by epur.ous tickets, Examine your tickets closely, and see that the names are the same as those in the regular Democratic ticket at the head uf this column. Desperate efforts will be made to-day to defeat Mesers. Belden and Chase, and for that purpose tickets have been printed, closely resembling the Popular Sovereignty ticket, with the uame of C. Wileon H.ll in place of David Belden and C. J. Lansing in place of S. H. Chase, The object is to deceive uuwary voters, and defeat one or more of our candidates, Once more we say to our frieuds, scan your tickets closely, and see thatevery name is right before you deposit your ballots, The cause of the Lecomptonites is so desperate in this county that they would consider a defeat of one of our candidates as a victory for themselves. Let them not aecomplish their object through the carelessness of Popular Sovereignty Democrats, Revs backs. Doubtless many fal-e reports will be circulated to-day at the different precincts, in regard to the Democratic candidates. Ifreports dero,atory to any of our candidates should be started, they may be set down as roorbacke, got up to effect the result. A story was current in the lower part ofthe county, a day or two ago, that Belden bad withdrawn ; it is useless to say that the story was without foundation. Believe in nothing you hear to-day. but vote the straight ticket. Vote Early. We must entreat our Democratic friends to vote atas early an bour as practicable this morning. A large vote will be cast in Nevada to-day, and the polls are less likely to be crowded in the forenoon than in the latter part of theday. Vote early, aud employ the remainder of the day in bringing up your friends to the polls. Let not a vote be lost, Srraws, &c.—A vote was taken among the parsengers in the Maryeville stage, which game up on Saturday, on the great political question of the day. Of the tweuty-two passengers, twenty voted auti-Lecomptou, and two for Lecompton. Hurcuine's MaGazine.—The September number of this Magazine is before ur, It contains a coutiouation of the article on a trip across Mexico from the August number, besides itn usual amount of interesting and valuable matur. Dovstrut.—There is but exe countyin the State which the Lecomptonites have an apparest show tocarry. That is Sutter. It is now ascertained that even that supposed stronghold is doubtful, aud that there isa very strong prospect of the election of the Anti-Lecompton Assemblyman, Mr. Stevens, over his opponent, My. Vaughn. Ten Counties.—The Sacramento Union says that a veteran Democrat, who has mingled Jargely in California politice, and whois a shrewd calculator about elections, admitted a ‘few nights since while coming up the river, that it would take ten ef Baldwin’s best counthes to offeet the majority Currey would reeeive in San Francisco. poeta Be Geo. I. Lammon, inoue axineains aqent ton:tie ye oe Whig, but has acted with the Democracy since To Foreign-born Citizens. The Democratie nominee fur District Judge, Col. R. H. Taylor, was formerly an old-line the downfall of the Whig party. Unlike most of the Whigs, Col. Taylor never had anythiog to do with Know Nothingiem, but invariably oppoeed the prorcriptive doctrines of that party. In the year 1855—the same year in which Judge Searls was elected on the K.N. ticket—Col. Taylor, though not then a candidate for office, stumprd Sierra county for the Democratic ticket, and stood ap manfally for the rights of foreign-born citizene. Col. Taylor and Judge Svarla sre now opposing candidates for for the same office, and we desire fercign-born citizens to reflect which of the two is more wertby of their support! Will you vote for Judge Searls who took advantage of the temporary furore against foreigners, te ride into office, or will you vote for the man whe stood up fer your rights at a time when it was popular to juin in the crusade against you? If youare uot ungrateful, anewer the question today at the polle, by depositing your votes for Col. R. H. Taylor. Stand firmly by the man who sustain ed your rights in time of need, and should the clouds lower again upon your political rights, you will not lack triends to advocate your cause. Prove by your votes to-day, that you are not ungrateful. Poor Fx._Ltows.—During his speech on Saturday evening, Mr. Latham drew # dismal picture of the distressed condition of the Federal officers in Califernia, and said that their pay was eo mall that it was barely sufficient to keep soul and body together. Until quite recently, the pay of these officers has ranged all the way from ten thousand dollars a year down to five dollars a day. During the late session of Congress Mr. Broderiek succeeded in getting it cut down twenty-five per cent, which partly uccounts for the howl which the Federal organs vet up against that gentleman. Their pay now ranges from seven thousand five hundred dollare w year, to three dollars aud a bulfa day, which they receive for doing almost nothing, and which comes out of the pockets of the people. The pour fellows are indeed to be pitied. Hereafter they will not be able to do half as much towards carrying primary electienr as they have done heretofore, for their numbers have been reduced, und the remainder are deprived ef one fourth ef the necessary primary eleetion sinews. As soon asthe election is over, and Mr. Latham is disengaged, we should recommend that he be sent through the mining counties to collect subscriptions to relieve the pecuniary necessities of the Federal officers of thiv State, The deplorable and destitute coudition of there officiale proves the old adage, that “‘republice are ungrateful.”’ Tax State Senatorsurr.—Voters should remember that C. J. Lansing, the Lecompton nominee for State Senator, has been a member of almost every party and fraction of a party that has existed in the county; that at one time he professed to be an enthusiastic admirer of David C. Broderick, and at another, without any conceivable cause for change, except an anticipated change of public opiniun, he bitterly denounces that gentleman; one day he is regarded as a man of extreme northern sentiments, and the next he becomes peculiarly sound on the nigger qnestion. He evidently has no fixed political principles, and cannot be depended upon. On the contrary, S. H. Chase has always been a true, consistent, and lifelong Democrat, firmly adhering to the priuciples of the party, a man of talent and of inflexible integrity. He has been tried and not found wanting. If the people of Nevada county desire to be properly represented in the State Senate, they will cast their vutes for 5. H. Chase. Tue County Jupersnir.—It is openly asrerted that the Lecomptonites design to quietly drop their cand date for County Judge, H. M. Meore, and vote for C, W. Hill, the independ. ent eandidate. They cannot certainly have much confidence in their own candidat. Moore was elected a delegate to the late County Con vention as a Douglas Democrat, but on being elected President of the Convention, he betrayed his own party, and announced himself as an English compromise man, and after the split in the Convention, was reward d by the nomination for County Judge. The Lecomptoniis know full well that the man who will betray their opponents will betray them if occasion requires, and we are not aurprised that hundreds of that party refuse to support their nominee for County Judge. Wurre Staves.—The Sacramento Mercury. the central organ of the Lecempton party of this State, in its issue of July 4th, 1858, speaks as follows, in regard to foreigners and workingmen of the north ; “Here it is convenient, too, to forget that the slaves to capital at the North all vote and exercise other acts of citizenship, and thereby secure to that section its numerical ascendancy. There votes, too, consist of a vast proportion of foreigners, as little instructed in the true theory and principles of our government as are the ordinary slaves upon Southern plantations. You drive up your slaves to the polle, in many instances, merely to echo your political preferences; the Southerner keeps his better employed in the field. and does not thus prostitute the elective franchise.” After reading the above, from a leading Le compton paper, foreigners and workingmen thould by all means support the ticket which that paper recommends, The Lecompton leaders knew how to treat workingmen aud foreigners; instead of allowing them to vote, and partisipate in the affairs of government, they would, if they had the power, keep them ‘‘better employed in the field,” and thus guard the elective franchise from being prostituted by gtesey mechanics and ignorant foreigners.— The classes of the community thus stigmatized by the Lecompton organ, will not fail to properly appreciate the kindness of their would-bemasters, who imagine they were born to govern, and that the people have nothing to do but to obey their commands. The Fourth of July was a glorious day on which to give utterance to the sentiments quoted above. Borre County.—In Butte, one of the most populous and important mining counties of the State, the Lecomptonites have no ticket in the field. The contest in. that county is between the Popular Sovereignty Democrats and Republicans, The vote of that county will be given almost unanimously for Jadge Curry. Douglas and the Administration. The Washington Union. and other papers uader the immediate contrel of the Administration, are waging as bitter and unrelenting war against Senator Douglas. They are now openly proclaiming that Douglas must be defeated, knowing full well that bis defeat will reeult in the election of aa ultra Republican to the U.S. Senate, The articles now being published in the Washington Union against Judge Douglas ure believed to be written under the immediate direction of the President. The same statements and language are beld commonly among . ¥ the friends of the Administration, and it is beldly announced that the war isto be kept up at every hazard, The Federal officers go rotified that every refusal tv enlist in the crusade against Douglas will be followed by an immediate removal. The Quiucy ([llinvis) Herald quotes as follows from a letter addressed by Isaac Cook. the Danite postmaster at Chicago, to a friend of his in a neighboring county : ‘Ir Ig THK TRUE Policy of all the friends of the Adminstration in Hlinois to vors ron REPUBLICAN CaNDIDATKS FOR THE LeoisLatUrE, when they are not strong enough to ran candidates of their own,”’ Itmust be remembered that Cook enjoyed inthe highest degree the confidence of the President, and that he is the leader and drill master of the Administration squad in IIIinoie. The course of the Administration towards Senator Douglas is unaccountable. A few months ago. the ery was that Lecompton must be put through Congress or » dissolution of the Union would fullow. The same men are now proclaiming that Douglas must be defeated in order to save the Democratic party, and the cry has been caught up and is now being wafted over the country by the camp followers and lick-epittles of the Federal power. The Lecomptenites of this State have thus far abstained from denouncing Douglar, and profess to regard him as a Democrat; but as soon as the election is over the mask will be thrown off, and they will then strike up the tune and follow in the wake of their mactera at the Federal Capital. That they intend to do this is evident from the course they have pursued. In all the Conventions and public meetings of which they had control, they soot studiously avoided adupting any resolution ‘recognizing Douglas as a Demoerat, although many of them openly profess to agree with him in his eonstruction of the Kansag-Nebraska bill, Their odject is to take no position until after the election. ro that they can denounce his course bereafter without appearing inconsistent. Jupox Skanis.—The Graes Valley organ, in speaking of the course of the Democrat and Journal towards Judge Searle, saya: But a few weeks since the Democrat spoke of Judge Searlin the highest terms, and said incase of his being a candidate for District Judge, that it would be folly for any man to run against him. Some three weeks ago we spoke of Judge Searls, as having made a popular Judge, but never eaid or intimated that it would be folly for any mau to rug against him. At that time it was net ruppored that Judge Searls would permit his name to be used asa candidate ; in. fact, we had heard him eo express himself, and in view of the uncertainty of the successful candidate being entitled to the offiee. we stated that it was not probable any candidate would be run against the present incumbent. We have had nothing to ray about the political summersaults which Judge Searls has made within the past few years. He has certainly been aa consistent as a majority of the candidates now running on the Lecompton tieket, which is saying but little in his favor. But aside from his political course, Judge Searls is peculiarly obj ctionable to us as a Judge. When the Vigilance Committee excitement was raging, two years ago, he chimed in with the excitement of the day, aud carried the weight of his influence as a Judge, in favor of shat treasonable organization, A man £o easily carried off by such a momeatary excitement, is not possessed of a sufficiently well-balaaced mind to qualify him for a high judicial station. A Judge, ef all others, should be a man who can look ealmly and coolly, and without prejudiee or passion, upon the passing events of the day. Tax Linx Port Swinpix.—It will be seen by the following letter, that in cousequence of Senator Broderick’s exposure of the eontemplated extortion upon the government, in the vale of a site for afort at Lime Poiut, that the War Departinent bae suspended all negotiations in*regard to the purchase of the land. The advoeacy, by Senators Weller and Gwin, of such a gross fraud as fleecing the government out of $200,000, for property not worth over $5.000. can place those gentlemen in no very enviable light before the countvy. Taken all in all, it . was the mest rarcally swindle which has been attempted upon the geu¢eral goverument for many years: War Departuest, Washington, D. C., ° May 18, 1858. Sin: In consequence of the opposition of the Hon. David C. Broderick, Senator from California, to the proceedings of the War Department, baving for their objeet the purchase of Lime Point, and being induced to believe from his representations in the Senate of the United States that a gross extortion ie contemplated by the holdere of that property, I bave determined to suspend all uegotiations for its purchaseYou will, therefore, stop all proceedings on your part, and return all the papers connected with the transaction to this Department, together with your own instructions, Very respectfully, your ob't serv’t, Joun B.

Intelligence of the ruccees of the Atlantic Telegraph enterprise, was as gratifying as it wae unexpeeted.

We are dispored, however, to indulge in the pleasing reflection that the next steamer will bring confir. mation of the success of the enterprise. In the pages of the future historian, the political equabbles and contests of the year 1858, now considered of se much importance, will be disposed of in a single paragraph, while whole chapters will be devoted to the details of the magnificent scheme of connecting the twe eoutinents by a telegraphic wire.

Sup't of Public Schools, Nevada county. A Circutar. printed in the German language. and signed by Julius Korn, Port-warden of San Francisco, has been extensively circulated in this section within the past day or two. Mr, Korn informs his German friends, that Judge Baldwin is opposed to a Sunday law, and if elected will dveide one unconstitutional and that Judge Currey will dec'de a similar law constitutional. It is somewhat singular that the man who was most uctive last winter in getting signatures fo; a Sunday law petition, in this town, was the same that took upon him self the responsibility of circulating Mr. Korn’s circular. The statements, in regard to the opinions of the eandidates for Supreme Judge. circulated as they are on the eve of the elvc tion, cannot be relied on, The individuals whe paid for the printing of the Korn cireular might as well have thrown the.e money into the Bay of Sau Fraucisco.

Tus Feenine ty Kansas.—The Kansas cor respondent of the Boston Journal relates an incident which illustrates the feeling in Kansas towards the English juggle. He says: While returning from Topeka the other day, I met a settler whom I had not seen for a year. Noticing that he leoked thin and pale, I inquired the state of his health. “Quite feeble.” was the reply. “Iam hardly able to be about; I have been running down for several months.

Success of the Atlantic Telegraph Enterprise — Election News, &c. San Francisco, Aug. 28th. The steamer Gulden Age arrived at seven o'cloek. this afternoon, with intelligence from New York to August 5th. The Atiautic Telegraph. The Atlantic Telegraph Squadron sailed from Queenstown, in ord-r to make a fifth attempt to lay the cable, at daybreak on the 18th of July. and the Niagara aud Agamemuon were sighted off Cape Clear and Kingston, respec: tively, on the moraing of that day. on their way to the ocean rendezvous, The following is from the second edition of the N. Y. Herald, dated August 5th, 1 P.M. We have it through the courtesy of the Times office here : “Svockss ov THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH CABLE. —The news from New Feundland is almost tow good tobe true. The Atlantic Cable is laid. The U.S.Steamer Niagara, Capt. Hudson, and the Briti-h War Steamer Gorgon, Capt, Dayman, arrived at Trinity Bay yesterday, Aug. 4th. and the Atlantic Cable. the working of which is perfeet, is being landed to-day. All we can hope for now is that the above important and exciting intelligence is true and that the Agamemnon and Velorous will aucceed in landing their cable at Valentia Bay. This news will send an electric shock throughout the world. A pasrenger by the Golden Age states that when the Niagara arrived, the line ef communication through the telegraph cable was perfect, and that the British vessel had reached within a mile of the British shore. Election News. Lovisvin.g, Aug. 3.—Election occurred yesterday. In the eity proper. the American candidate for Judge of Court of Appeals, received 228 majority. Geo, R.

Kansas.—A late Kansas paper says: “The result of the Augnst election will whisp-ra tale in Mr. Buchavan’s ears which will sarprise him, The Adininistration party in Kansas, who sustain the Swindle, will number not to exceed five hundred votes, all told.” The Wa-hington correspondent of Forney's Press confirms the above, as follows: “Gov, Denver, although he has grown exceedingly cautions since his arrival in Washington, contirms the rumor that the vote against Lecomp ton, as it is presented in the English biil, will be enormous on the first Monday in August. The President is much harassed at the proepret.”’ The Washington correspondent of the New York Zimes, speaking of Hon. Horace F. Clark mak: s the following important statements : “Friends of mine, in whose veracity I have all contidence, assure me that when Mr. Clark’s opposition to Lecompton was first spoken ef — as yet without a y definite action on bis part— he was visited by several members of the Cabinet. who confessed their private sympathy with his views; spoke of the Leécompton Bill asa gratuitous outrage. neither called for by the South, nor in consonance with Demvcratic principles; in fact, they agreed substantially with all his views, but entreated him, for hia own sake and the sake of the party, to give the measure his support, on the ground that it would prove a nullity in practice, but, if defeated, would involve with it the destruction hoth of the Administration and the party which placed that Administration in power. Mr. Clark was deaf to these rather curious solicitations.” The Democratic candidate for Congress in the Northern District of Iowa has openly declared his opposition to Lecompten and to the Conference coutrivance. When the annonncement was made on the stump, Senator G. W. Jones retired in anger from the meeting. The Democracy of Iowa are incurably divided. and will be routed at the coming election.

From every portion of the county rings this battle ery of the true Demoeracy. The hills that echoed it in fifty-six have caught again the well known slogan and shout it to the sea. The clans are gathering. Upon the one side, the vultures, the jackale of Federal power, that live only in the corruption of government, are grasping in despair at the power about to be wrested from them forever; while upon the other, in their giant strength, come the cohorts of the people—they come as came their sires in the struggle of the Revolution, armed with the right, to battle for themselves in the context of to-day, which decides whether the government is the servant of the people. or the people. the serfe, the vassals of the government. It is a struggle in which corrupted power is arrayed againet an incorruptible people; in which each man decides for or against himself; in which each freeman must fall prostrate before the Baal of an Administration, or renew his fealty to the freedom of the people. With euch issues the result cannot be doubtful. The people can only full by their own hand. Armed with & just cause, and battling for their own righte, they are invincible; and in their strength alone lies the national safety, for the government that conquers the people must stand upon the ruins of American Liberty. With these parties and this issue, the result is certain; and te-day the voice of California, from her golden mountains and her fertile plaine, will ring across the sea, proclaiming to her elder sisters, that where American Freemen rule the People asloue are Sovereign. Look out for Spurious Tickets. Voters willdo well to be on their guard against being imposed upon by epur.ous tickets, Examine your tickets closely, and see that the names are the same as those in the regular Democratic ticket at the head uf this column. Desperate efforts will be made to-day to defeat Mesers. Belden and Chase, and for that purpose tickets have been printed, closely resembling the Popular Sovereignty ticket, with the uame of C. Wileon H.ll in place of David Belden and C. J. Lansing in place of S. H. Chase, The object is to deceive uuwary voters, and defeat one or more of our candidates, Once more we say to our frieuds, scan your tickets closely, and see thatevery name is right before you deposit your ballots, The cause of the Lecomptonites is so desperate in this county that they would consider a defeat of one of our candidates as a victory for themselves. Let them not aecomplish their object through the carelessness of Popular Sovereignty Democrats, Revs backs. Doubtless many fal-e reports will be circulated to-day at the different precincts, in regard to the Democratic candidates. Ifreports dero,atory to any of our candidates should be started, they may be set down as roorbacke, got up to effect the result. A story was current in the lower part ofthe county, a day or two ago, that Belden bad withdrawn ; it is useless to say that the story was without foundation. Believe in nothing you hear to-day. but vote the straight ticket. Vote Early. We must entreat our Democratic friends to vote atas early an bour as practicable this morning. A large vote will be cast in Nevada to-day, and the polls are less likely to be crowded in the forenoon than in the latter part of theday. Vote early, aud employ the remainder of the day in bringing up your friends to the polls. Let not a vote be lost, Srraws, &c.—A vote was taken among the parsengers in the Maryeville stage, which game up on Saturday, on the great political question of the day. Of the tweuty-two passengers, twenty voted auti-Lecomptou, and two for Lecompton. Hurcuine's MaGazine.—The September number of this Magazine is before ur, It contains a coutiouation of the article on a trip across Mexico from the August number, besides itn usual amount of interesting and valuable matur. Dovstrut.—There is but exe countyin the State which the Lecomptonites have an apparest show tocarry. That is Sutter. It is now ascertained that even that supposed stronghold is doubtful, aud that there isa very strong prospect of the election of the Anti-Lecompton Assemblyman, Mr. Stevens, over his opponent, My. Vaughn. Ten Counties.—The Sacramento Union says that a veteran Democrat, who has mingled Jargely in California politice, and whois a shrewd calculator about elections, admitted a ‘few nights since while coming up the river, that it would take ten ef Baldwin’s best counthes to offeet the majority Currey would reeeive in San Francisco. poeta Be Geo. I. Lammon, inoue axineains aqent ton:tie ye oe Whig, but has acted with the Democracy since To Foreign-born Citizens. The Democratie nominee fur District Judge, Col. R. H. Taylor, was formerly an old-line the downfall of the Whig party. Unlike most of the Whigs, Col. Taylor never had anythiog to do with Know Nothingiem, but invariably oppoeed the prorcriptive doctrines of that party. In the year 1855—the same year in which Judge Searls was elected on the K.N. ticket—Col. Taylor, though not then a candidate for office, stumprd Sierra county for the Democratic ticket, and stood ap manfally for the rights of foreign-born citizene. Col. Taylor and Judge Svarla sre now opposing candidates for for the same office, and we desire fercign-born citizens to reflect which of the two is more wertby of their support! Will you vote for Judge Searls who took advantage of the temporary furore against foreigners, te ride into office, or will you vote for the man whe stood up fer your rights at a time when it was popular to juin in the crusade against you? If youare uot ungrateful, anewer the question today at the polle, by depositing your votes for Col. R. H. Taylor. Stand firmly by the man who sustain ed your rights in time of need, and should the clouds lower again upon your political rights, you will not lack triends to advocate your cause. Prove by your votes to-day, that you are not ungrateful. Poor Fx._Ltows.—During his speech on Saturday evening, Mr. Latham drew # dismal picture of the distressed condition of the Federal officers in Califernia, and said that their pay was eo mall that it was barely sufficient to keep soul and body together. Until quite recently, the pay of these officers has ranged all the way from ten thousand dollars a year down to five dollars a day. During the late session of Congress Mr. Broderiek succeeded in getting it cut down twenty-five per cent, which partly uccounts for the howl which the Federal organs vet up against that gentleman. Their pay now ranges from seven thousand five hundred dollare w year, to three dollars aud a bulfa day, which they receive for doing almost nothing, and which comes out of the pockets of the people. The pour fellows are indeed to be pitied. Hereafter they will not be able to do half as much towards carrying primary electienr as they have done heretofore, for their numbers have been reduced, und the remainder are deprived ef one fourth ef the necessary primary eleetion sinews. As soon asthe election is over, and Mr. Latham is disengaged, we should recommend that he be sent through the mining counties to collect subscriptions to relieve the pecuniary necessities of the Federal officers of thiv State, The deplorable and destitute coudition of there officiale proves the old adage, that “‘republice are ungrateful.”’ Tax State Senatorsurr.—Voters should remember that C. J. Lansing, the Lecompton nominee for State Senator, has been a member of almost every party and fraction of a party that has existed in the county; that at one time he professed to be an enthusiastic admirer of David C. Broderick, and at another, without any conceivable cause for change, except an anticipated change of public opiniun, he bitterly denounces that gentleman; one day he is regarded as a man of extreme northern sentiments, and the next he becomes peculiarly sound on the nigger qnestion. He evidently has no fixed political principles, and cannot be depended upon. On the contrary, S. H. Chase has always been a true, consistent, and lifelong Democrat, firmly adhering to the priuciples of the party, a man of talent and of inflexible integrity. He has been tried and not found wanting. If the people of Nevada county desire to be properly represented in the State Senate, they will cast their vutes for 5. H. Chase. Tue County Jupersnir.—It is openly asrerted that the Lecomptonites design to quietly drop their cand date for County Judge, H. M. Meore, and vote for C, W. Hill, the independ. ent eandidate. They cannot certainly have much confidence in their own candidat. Moore was elected a delegate to the late County Con vention as a Douglas Democrat, but on being elected President of the Convention, he betrayed his own party, and announced himself as an English compromise man, and after the split in the Convention, was reward d by the nomination for County Judge. The Lecomptoniis know full well that the man who will betray their opponents will betray them if occasion requires, and we are not aurprised that hundreds of that party refuse to support their nominee for County Judge. Wurre Staves.—The Sacramento Mercury. the central organ of the Lecempton party of this State, in its issue of July 4th, 1858, speaks as follows, in regard to foreigners and workingmen of the north ; “Here it is convenient, too, to forget that the slaves to capital at the North all vote and exercise other acts of citizenship, and thereby secure to that section its numerical ascendancy. There votes, too, consist of a vast proportion of foreigners, as little instructed in the true theory and principles of our government as are the ordinary slaves upon Southern plantations. You drive up your slaves to the polle, in many instances, merely to echo your political preferences; the Southerner keeps his better employed in the field. and does not thus prostitute the elective franchise.” After reading the above, from a leading Le compton paper, foreigners and workingmen thould by all means support the ticket which that paper recommends, The Lecompton leaders knew how to treat workingmen aud foreigners; instead of allowing them to vote, and partisipate in the affairs of government, they would, if they had the power, keep them ‘‘better employed in the field,” and thus guard the elective franchise from being prostituted by gtesey mechanics and ignorant foreigners.— The classes of the community thus stigmatized by the Lecompton organ, will not fail to properly appreciate the kindness of their would-bemasters, who imagine they were born to govern, and that the people have nothing to do but to obey their commands. The Fourth of July was a glorious day on which to give utterance to the sentiments quoted above. Borre County.—In Butte, one of the most populous and important mining counties of the State, the Lecomptonites have no ticket in the field. The contest in. that county is between the Popular Sovereignty Democrats and Republicans, The vote of that county will be given almost unanimously for Jadge Curry. Douglas and the Administration. The Washington Union. and other papers uader the immediate contrel of the Administration, are waging as bitter and unrelenting war against Senator Douglas. They are now openly proclaiming that Douglas must be defeated, knowing full well that bis defeat will reeult in the election of aa ultra Republican to the U.S. Senate, The articles now being published in the Washington Union against Judge Douglas ure believed to be written under the immediate direction of the President. The same statements and language are beld commonly among . ¥ the friends of the Administration, and it is beldly announced that the war isto be kept up at every hazard, The Federal officers go rotified that every refusal tv enlist in the crusade against Douglas will be followed by an immediate removal. The Quiucy ([llinvis) Herald quotes as follows from a letter addressed by Isaac Cook. the Danite postmaster at Chicago, to a friend of his in a neighboring county : ‘Ir Ig THK TRUE Policy of all the friends of the Adminstration in Hlinois to vors ron REPUBLICAN CaNDIDATKS FOR THE LeoisLatUrE, when they are not strong enough to ran candidates of their own,”’ Itmust be remembered that Cook enjoyed inthe highest degree the confidence of the President, and that he is the leader and drill master of the Administration squad in IIIinoie. The course of the Administration towards Senator Douglas is unaccountable. A few months ago. the ery was that Lecompton must be put through Congress or » dissolution of the Union would fullow. The same men are now proclaiming that Douglas must be defeated in order to save the Democratic party, and the cry has been caught up and is now being wafted over the country by the camp followers and lick-epittles of the Federal power. The Lecomptenites of this State have thus far abstained from denouncing Douglar, and profess to regard him as a Democrat; but as soon as the election is over the mask will be thrown off, and they will then strike up the tune and follow in the wake of their mactera at the Federal Capital. That they intend to do this is evident from the course they have pursued. In all the Conventions and public meetings of which they had control, they soot studiously avoided adupting any resolution ‘recognizing Douglas as a Demoerat, although many of them openly profess to agree with him in his eonstruction of the Kansag-Nebraska bill, Their odject is to take no position until after the election. ro that they can denounce his course bereafter without appearing inconsistent. Jupox Skanis.—The Graes Valley organ, in speaking of the course of the Democrat and Journal towards Judge Searle, saya: But a few weeks since the Democrat spoke of Judge Searlin the highest terms, and said incase of his being a candidate for District Judge, that it would be folly for any man to run against him. Some three weeks ago we spoke of Judge Searls, as having made a popular Judge, but never eaid or intimated that it would be folly for any mau to rug against him. At that time it was net ruppored that Judge Searls would permit his name to be used asa candidate ; in. fact, we had heard him eo express himself, and in view of the uncertainty of the successful candidate being entitled to the offiee. we stated that it was not probable any candidate would be run against the present incumbent. We have had nothing to ray about the political summersaults which Judge Searls has made within the past few years. He has certainly been aa consistent as a majority of the candidates now running on the Lecompton tieket, which is saying but little in his favor. But aside from his political course, Judge Searls is peculiarly obj ctionable to us as a Judge. When the Vigilance Committee excitement was raging, two years ago, he chimed in with the excitement of the day, aud carried the weight of his influence as a Judge, in favor of shat treasonable organization, A man £o easily carried off by such a momeatary excitement, is not possessed of a sufficiently well-balaaced mind to qualify him for a high judicial station. A Judge, ef all others, should be a man who can look ealmly and coolly, and without prejudiee or passion, upon the passing events of the day. Tax Linx Port Swinpix.—It will be seen by the following letter, that in cousequence of Senator Broderick’s exposure of the eontemplated extortion upon the government, in the vale of a site for afort at Lime Poiut, that the War Departinent bae suspended all negotiations in*regard to the purchase of the land. The advoeacy, by Senators Weller and Gwin, of such a gross fraud as fleecing the government out of $200,000, for property not worth over $5.000. can place those gentlemen in no very enviable light before the countvy. Taken all in all, it . was the mest rarcally swindle which has been attempted upon the geu¢eral goverument for many years: War Departuest, Washington, D. C., ° May 18, 1858. Sin: In consequence of the opposition of the Hon. David C. Broderick, Senator from California, to the proceedings of the War Department, baving for their objeet the purchase of Lime Point, and being induced to believe from his representations in the Senate of the United States that a gross extortion ie contemplated by the holdere of that property, I bave determined to suspend all uegotiations for its purchaseYou will, therefore, stop all proceedings on your part, and return all the papers connected with the transaction to this Department, together with your own instructions, Very respectfully, your ob't serv’t, Joun B.

We are dispored, however, to indulge in the pleasing reflection that the next steamer will bring confir. mation of the success of the enterprise. In the pages of the future historian, the political equabbles and contests of the year 1858, now considered of se much importance, will be disposed of in a single paragraph, while whole chapters will be devoted to the details of the magnificent scheme of connecting the twe eoutinents by a telegraphic wire.

Sup't of Public Schools, Nevada county. A Circutar. printed in the German language. and signed by Julius Korn, Port-warden of San Francisco, has been extensively circulated in this section within the past day or two. Mr, Korn informs his German friends, that Judge Baldwin is opposed to a Sunday law, and if elected will dveide one unconstitutional and that Judge Currey will dec'de a similar law constitutional. It is somewhat singular that the man who was most uctive last winter in getting signatures fo; a Sunday law petition, in this town, was the same that took upon him self the responsibility of circulating Mr. Korn’s circular. The statements, in regard to the opinions of the eandidates for Supreme Judge. circulated as they are on the eve of the elvc tion, cannot be relied on, The individuals whe paid for the printing of the Korn cireular might as well have thrown the.e money into the Bay of Sau Fraucisco.

His wing of the Republican party, therefore, gous for Baldwin aud the Administration, on the ground that that party ought tu be sup ported by the Republicaus which overthrows the principle of the Kaneae Nebraska Bill—a principle against which the Revubl.caus have always contended, and which they mutt overthrow, iu Mr. Park’s view of the case, in order to establish in its place their own doctrine. Mr. Shafter, if we mistake not, was once the Abolition candidate for Governuer in the State of Vermont, aud was there kuowu asa rauk and full-fledged Abvlitionist, for years, Mr. Park is so strong in his opposition to slavery that we question very much if he is nota pretty goud Abolitionist himvelf.

The President is much harassed at the proepret.”’ The Washington correspondent of the New York Zimes, speaking of Hon. Horace F. Clark mak: s the following important statements : “Friends of mine, in whose veracity I have all contidence, assure me that when Mr. Clark’s opposition to Lecompton was first spoken ef — as yet without a y definite action on bis part— he was visited by several members of the Cabinet. who confessed their private sympathy with his views; spoke of the Leécompton Bill asa gratuitous outrage. neither called for by the South, nor in consonance with Demvcratic principles; in fact, they agreed substantially with all his views, but entreated him, for hia own sake and the sake of the party, to give the measure his support, on the ground that it would prove a nullity in practice, but, if defeated, would involve with it the destruction hoth of the Administration and the party which placed that Administration in power. Mr. Clark was deaf to these rather curious solicitations.” The Democratic candidate for Congress in the Northern District of Iowa has openly declared his opposition to Lecompten and to the Conference coutrivance. When the annonncement was made on the stump, Senator G. W. Jones retired in anger from the meeting. The Democracy of Iowa are incurably divided. and will be routed at the coming election.
