FOR PRESIDENT OF THE U. STATES, DAN'LS. DICKINSON Pa @t New Vork,. ’ FOR VICE PRESIDENT, JAMES 8S. GREEN, Of Missouri. Subject tu the nominations of the Democratic Na. tional Convention. —— i Eee fe The Democratic Central Committee, of Nevada County, is requested to meet at the Court House, in Nevada. on Saturday the 1Ith of June, at 10 o’clock, A. M. Wa. Warr, Chairman. SALUTATORY. The conducting of the Nevada .National has again fallen into our bands, by the force of circumsetancss ; “Some men are born great. and some have greatness thurst upon them” ; and thus have,we falleu heir to all the glory, and greatness, and emoluments of the Wevada National. It has been bequeathed to us by its former liberal and able editor. with all its good will and curses, in, . cluding the scissors, the devil, the paste pot and the long list of exchanges, which we prize next to its sterling and unwavering . democracy. In again assuming the conduct of the, National, we do so under the full convic. tion that it will not}be a paying institution; for the little experience we have already . bad in this business, has dissi pated all eer magnificent hopes in regard to acquiring . a sudden fortune through the channel editorial, To the Democracy of Nevada County we will only say, that our endeavor will be, to so conduct the .Vationa/, that it will meet) their approbation, and deserve their liberal sipport. To all whoknow us itis unnecessary to say, that we will advocate only such measures aswe conceive to be purely demo cratic, that we will firmly adbere to the principles of democracy, as enunciated by our venerable Chief Magistrate, the gray haired veteran Cass, and the host of patriots that now stand firmand unwavering, in the frout ranks of the National Democracy, battling against the fanatics, traitors and false friends of our glorious Confederacy. We shall fearlessly denounce what we conceive to be wrong in the Democratic crganization, while we shall foster no feelings of bitterness in case our preference and choice should not be consulted in regard to County and State nominations. We will freely avd enthusiastically give our humble support to the entire ticket and shall oppose on all occasions, the imbecile bastard organization, baving a feeble existence throughout this State, and known as the Broderick party; which under the name of ‘Democracy’ and “ Douglas,’ endeavors to ‘‘wear the livery ofheaven,” to serve the devil in—or his prototype King David. There is a small wigwam of this institution in our sister . town—Nevada, ( in this place, we are proud to say, they haveno existence) which we shall pay our respects to, when occasion requires. The .Vevada Democrat, which profeses to be the exponent of pure and undefiled democracy, is thegreat car of juggernaut, under which the democratic party in this Connty are to be crushed in the coming contest. The god Josh, who edits that paper, we bumbly ask tobe merciful to us. that ona former occasion, when we were absent from the state, Josh let loose the vials of bis wrath upon us. for which chivalrous and discreet act, we have not before bad an . opportunity of expressic g our admiration. To the citzens of Grass Valley, we principally look for support and hope asa local paper, giving « fair representation of the resources and prosperity of our town, that we may deserve their patronage and kind indulgence. w®@> Mr. George F.

FOR PRESIDENT OF THE U. STATES, DAN'LS. DICKINSON Pa @t New Vork,. ’ FOR VICE PRESIDENT, JAMES 8S. GREEN, Of Missouri. Subject tu the nominations of the Democratic Na. tional Convention. —— i Eee fe The Democratic Central Committee, of Nevada County, is requested to meet at the Court House, in Nevada. on Saturday the 1Ith of June, at 10 o’clock, A. M. Wa. Warr, Chairman. SALUTATORY. The conducting of the Nevada .National has again fallen into our bands, by the force of circumsetancss ; “Some men are born great. and some have greatness thurst upon them” ; and thus have,we falleu heir to all the glory, and greatness, and emoluments of the Wevada National. It has been bequeathed to us by its former liberal and able editor. with all its good will and curses, in, . cluding the scissors, the devil, the paste pot and the long list of exchanges, which we prize next to its sterling and unwavering . democracy. In again assuming the conduct of the, National, we do so under the full convic. tion that it will not}be a paying institution; for the little experience we have already . bad in this business, has dissi pated all eer magnificent hopes in regard to acquiring . a sudden fortune through the channel editorial, To the Democracy of Nevada County we will only say, that our endeavor will be, to so conduct the .Vationa/, that it will meet) their approbation, and deserve their liberal sipport. To all whoknow us itis unnecessary to say, that we will advocate only such measures aswe conceive to be purely demo cratic, that we will firmly adbere to the principles of democracy, as enunciated by our venerable Chief Magistrate, the gray haired veteran Cass, and the host of patriots that now stand firmand unwavering, in the frout ranks of the National Democracy, battling against the fanatics, traitors and false friends of our glorious Confederacy. We shall fearlessly denounce what we conceive to be wrong in the Democratic crganization, while we shall foster no feelings of bitterness in case our preference and choice should not be consulted in regard to County and State nominations. We will freely avd enthusiastically give our humble support to the entire ticket and shall oppose on all occasions, the imbecile bastard organization, baving a feeble existence throughout this State, and known as the Broderick party; which under the name of ‘Democracy’ and “ Douglas,’ endeavors to ‘‘wear the livery ofheaven,” to serve the devil in—or his prototype King David. There is a small wigwam of this institution in our sister . town—Nevada, ( in this place, we are proud to say, they haveno existence) which we shall pay our respects to, when occasion requires. The .Vevada Democrat, which profeses to be the exponent of pure and undefiled democracy, is thegreat car of juggernaut, under which the democratic party in this Connty are to be crushed in the coming contest. The god Josh, who edits that paper, we bumbly ask tobe merciful to us. that ona former occasion, when we were absent from the state, Josh let loose the vials of bis wrath upon us. for which chivalrous and discreet act, we have not before bad an . opportunity of expressic g our admiration. To the citzens of Grass Valley, we principally look for support and hope asa local paper, giving « fair representation of the resources and prosperity of our town, that we may deserve their patronage and kind indulgence. w®@> Mr. George F.
