NEVADA DEMOCRAT.
Bros ur in 4 Row,—The Breckiaridge Convention of Stanis‘aus county, held Sept. 5th, at
Empire City breke upin arow. A difficulty
arose in the Convention on the admirsion of
delegates from Emory’s Ferry, when, failing to
arrange the matter in a satisfactory mancer,
the three candidates for the Assembly and their
friends agreed to dissolve the Convention without making nominations, and let each candidate rua on his own hook. This leaves three
esadidates running on the Breckiaridge ticket,
and as fully one-half of the voters of the county
ere for Douglas, a regular Democrat will be
elected beyond doubt.
Tae N.Y. Heratp.—This paper which first
is reported to have come out for Douglas. It
this report is really true, which we doubt very
much, it is calculated to do Douglas more harm
than anything elee that bas occurred since the
campaign opened. Douglas can stand all the
abuse and misrepresentation his enemies are
able to heap upoa him, but he can hardly stand
the support of the New York Herald.
Merixny.—From deocaments received at the
State department at Washington, from Batavia,
it appears that a mutiny occurred on the Amerfean clipper ship Stag Hound, on the 3lst of
March, near Angier. The seeond officer was
murdered by the crew. Assistance was rendered by an English frigate, and the crew
placed in irons.
Fire ms Roour River Vater —A fire occorred at Ashland Mille, Rogue River Valley,
Sept. 5th, burning the Post Office and other
property to the value $4,000. The Post Office
was broken into and robbed of $25 in cash, and
$36 worth of stamps, and then set on fire, No
clue to the robber and incendiary could be had.
Poxy Express.—A rumor is current, says the
Union, that W. W. Finney, Superintendent of
the California division of the Pony Express, is
about to resign hia position for the purpose of
returning to the Atlantic States, and that R. P.
Jobarov, formerly Mayor of Sacramento, is to
be appointed to Gil the vacancy,

Valley, on the 13th inst., by two Indians, bob
of whom were intoxicated. Fortunately, no
one was injured. A party from the Fort, soon
after the outrage, fouod the Indians and shot
them.
Tur Radical Abolitionists have held a “National’ Convention in New York. Delegates
were present from Keotacky, Penosylvania,
New Jersey, Michigan, Massachusetts, Obio and
New York. Gerrett Smith, of New York, was
nominated for President, and Samuel McFar

Unless official figures lie, it cannot be den’
that our increase is to be ascribed chiefly to the
productive and expansive energies of the Anglo-Saxou stock of this continent—precisely the
same agencies that impelled us so rapidly forward in our earlier bistory, when immigration
was comparatively unknown, From fs12 to
1821. according to official documents printed
by the House of Commons, the entire emigration from-the United Kingdom to this country
was only 68,988, and from other parts of Hurope
it was ra wp ell insignificant ; and yet our
population io that time augmented two millions
or thirty-three and one-third per cent,
The natural increase of white population
from births alone, independent of immigration,
has averaged thirty per cent. every ten years
during the past century. Without foreign immigration, the nation would have doubled once
in twenty-seven years, though with itit has
doubled ones in twenty-three. Spaniards began to colonize this continent concurrently
with the English, aud for two hundred years
they ocoupied a large extent of it; and yet
there are not more than four millions of actual
Spanish deacent, while there are at least fifteen
millions of English and Scoteh descent.
We know that it has become rather anpopular on thie side of the water to assert any superiority to that old British stook that is atyted
the Anglo-Saxon race, Demagogdes would
have our adopted citizens of other descents believe that the praise of their race implies the
dispraise of others, But so much worse for the
demagogues. Wedo not believe there is in
this country an intellectual member of the Veltio, or the Teutonic, or the French family, that
does not respect the stock that call itself AngloSaxon. Three hundred years ago, this race
numbered less than three millions; it is now
the most numerous race in the world, the Slavic
alone excepted, Itis not only the most numerous, but it is undoubtedly the most energetic and {nfluential. Itis gradually taking
possession of all the ports and coasts of the
world. It is superseding every other language
and treading down every other idiosyncracsy,
It is expansive, if not aggregate. everywhere.
The Frenchman feels it in Canada, the Roman
in the northern Archipelago, the Italian .
Malta, the Greek in Ionian islands, the Spani
in Cuba and other portions of Mexico, the Dutch
atthe Cape and at Natal, the Indian in the
Rocky mountains and at the Isthmus, the African at Liberia and Sierra Leone, the Arab at
Suez and the Nile, the Australian at Sydney
and Adelaide, the Malay at Bombay and in
Burmah, the Chinese at Hongkong and Canton
and, finally, the stiffest of all have had to ben
before it—the Japanese at Jeddo,
But the world will io due time see « stronger
and nobler race than the Anglo-Saxon—a race
which, like that which made ma what it was
which made Rome what it was, and which bas
made England what it is, will be mixed of richer materials than were ever combined before,
The immigration from all parts of Europe,
which began in repulsion there, will increase in
metrical ratio by attraction here, and under
its influence the people of this country will
gradually become a distinct and peculiar people. Gathered from every choice stock in the
world, they are fast amalgamating ; and by operation of the law whioh acts through the whole

now living who will see our people outnumber

Tue Last ov tux AtLantic Capiy.—Captain
Kell and Mr. Varley, who went out for the purpose of endeavoring to raise the American end
of the Atlantic cable, report that “ although
they have on many occasions been able to raise
the bight, and so get on board at different times
pieces of cable, in all amounting to abotit seven
miles, they invariably found it broken again a
few miles off.” Attempts were made at various poiuts, but all were unsuccessful, the rope
in almost every instance giving way. It was
therefore found “ necessary to abandon’? it,
Speaking of the state of the rope between
Tickle Point and Copper Islands, Captain Kell
and Mr. Varley say: “Although mud is shown
on the charts, there are unquestionably rocks
also, as was plainly indicated by the state of
the cable, rock weed animalcules adhering to
and surrounding it in many places, showing
that it bad been suspended clear of the bottom,
The cable wae iavariably banled in by band to
avoid unnecessary etraiu. The recovered cable
varied in condition very much, and what was
most important is, that even the portions which
. came out of the black mad were so perished in
numerous patches that the outer covering parted
on board during thé process of bauling in, and
but for the dexterity and courage of the men
in seizing hold of it beyond the break, where
the iron wires stock out like bunches of bighly
sharpened needle points, we shonld not have
known 80 much of its condition. Ina word, it
was evidently sometimes embedded in mud,

rocks, a8 was apparent from the condition of
the outer covering. The iron wires in many

and much eaten, they having most probabl.

with tarred yarn, were sound, the tar and hemp
