DICKINSON Ot New Vork. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, JAMES 8S. GREEN, Of Missouri. Subject tu the nominations of the Democratic Na tena! Convention MR. DOUGLAS’ ESSAY ON THE «-DIVIDPING LINE BETWEEN FEDERAL AND LOCAL AUTHORITY.” We have read this political manifesto of Stephen A. Douglas with the utmost interest and care, and devoted upon it earnest and unprejudiced stady. From the position which the able Senator had #o long and so earnestly occupied as chairman of the Ter ritorial Committee, we had good reason to believe that the views which he entertained in relation to the subject upon which he has . written, from the prolonged and mature re flection which be has been called upon to de vote to it, would be repreeented with a strik. ing completeness and lucidity, and vindica ted with a searching power, and an unan. ewerable logic, which would everywhere lead conviction captive. We are gratified that Mr. Douglas has seen fit in the quietude of Lis own studio te gratify the people of the country, at this juncture. many of whom were not altogether confident as to his political ideas, with so thorough and elaborate an expression of his notions regarding the constitutional relations, subnisting between the governments of the States and Territories, and the Federal Government. At the general tone of the Senator’s disquisition we are greatly pleased; with the propositions which he has laid down, for the most part, we beartily agree—they are bighly democratic, the very esseence and pith of democracy; and their appreciated trath, so long entertained, will meet with the cordial response of the party throughout the length and breadth of the Union. We are truly gratified that some opportunity has j . aunoyingly wosatisfactory. He talks pro LLL LOLOL ELLOS AAT LN OE A LL CETTE CE NIC a Tue Next Sexator.—In our last issu . positions like a giant philosopber and an . We g8ve€ a communication from a friend ol }uuanswerable logician, and then reasons . Gov. Weller, advocating his claims for Seawith the trepidation and incertitude of a . ator, to fillthe unexpired term, caused by novice. Mr. Douglas occupies a sort of “be. thedeath of D. C. Broderick. Today we tween hay and grass” position, which is re. pugnant to men who have a spirit of boldness, perspicuity and reason. We understand Seward; we follow bim un: der the ilumin«tion of a clear light ; but the path of Mr. Douglas is now and then dubi. ous and smoky. It seems to us plain that the American citizen is never without law while in the territory of the United States. Where there is no local law, there must be . federal law; where there is federal law there must be protection; where there is protection, there must be proteetion to property, no less than protection to life; and where there is protection to property, if slaves are property under the constitution in the territories, then we are forced to assume the proposition as ineontrovertible, that in the ineohate condition of a State, the United States government must protect slaves at all hazards, by Congressional interference, or in any other way which may become neccessary. Prize Wrestling. A new species of amusement, the first, we believe ever held in this State, came off be. tween Grass Valley and Mevada, at the Park Hotel, on Nonday last, and coatinued during four days. One hundred and twenty-aix persons entered for wrestling, making sixty-three standards. These standards were then coupled off, which reduced the number of competitors for the prizes to thirty-two. The suc. cessful standards of this number were match. ed ugainst each other until there remained but six. As there were six prizes, ranging from one bundred dollars to five dollars, it was necessary that all of these meo should wrestle until the last man was left, who , would come in for the first prize, and the re/ maining five accerdingly, The style is known asthe Cornish, and the hold taken is the jacket hold; every . wrestler being encased within a jacket made of heavy drilling, and not allowed to catch . below the waist. It was an interesting occasion to sce strong athletic men, who perbaps bad lived together for years under! . the same roof, clenching each other with all the strength they possessed, to throw their opponent,—all done too with perfect good natnre. Men from different parte of the . State were there engaged in the wrestling, strangere to each other, and still that cor. diality and cheerfulness was always seen. Out of the 126 who entered, there was but one American, who although he was a strong . man, and proved himself superior to a great mujority, by remaining a Standard until . there were but 12 left, was compelled to suc: . comb to superior science, Had he thrown . one more man he would have come in for a prize. We venture the assertion, however, give room to anotber communication, sign ed * A Democrat,” in which the writer takes different ground, and places the claims of Gov. Weller at a discount. Both of our correspondents are firm Democrats, have stood nobly by the party, and did all in their power for the success of the Democrat ic ticket, at the last cleetion. To auch our columns are ever open. It is right that our representatives, before voting for the next Senator, should possess as mnch light as possible, as to what is the wish of the Democracy of Nevada County. Whether Weller, Denver, Washington, or any other sound and capable Democrat, may be their choice, some three months must elapse, ‘ere the election transpires, and abundant time is given for the Senate and Assembly elect to decide upon their choice to fill the enviable pesition. Campnexys axp Kerosene.—-Experiments have been made, during the past week, by Loutzenheiser, as to the difference in the erst of burning Camphene and Kerosene or Coal Oil. He informs us that 4 saving of 25 per cent, at least, is made by using the Kerosene oi]. Another discovery which he has made is that it will burn well in Camphene lamps and give quite as much light as that dangerous fluid. The office and table lamps for sale at Mc~ Laughlin’s are got up in a neat and pretty style. The latter is an article that every family ought to have. The prices of these lamps have been put ata very low figure, being imported direct from New York. ea J. M. Days, bas purchased the Tailoring business and stock of S. M Said.

Uader the above caption, some infatuated friend of Gov. Weller presents him te the public in a communication in your last issue. No objection will be urged to the profase praises which your correspondent has chosen to bestow on the object of bis admiration. Iu representing Gov. Weller to be the choice of the Democracy of Nevada Co. for the Senatorial vacancy, a protest however, is must sincerely entered, There are, doubtless, good Democrats in this County who entertain a preference for him, but a majority and a very large majority of the Democracy, prefer another. It is true, as your correspoudent says, the people did not express their wish at the late election with regard to Gov. Weller. At the late democratic State Convention, bowever, the Delegation from Nevada County voted, unanimously, against J. B. Weller, . and refused to endorse bim for re-election.— . Paxpoxen.—Jobn McCabe, who, our rea. ders will remember was convieted of murder . in the seeond degree, for being concerned tn . the shooting. of J.S. McMurtrey, last year, . aud sentenced to ten years imprisonment, . bas been pardoned by Gov. Weller, in con: sideration that he violates no criminal law. It is also currently reported that Joba Casey, who was convicted and sentenced for being engaged in the same tragedy, is also about to be pardoned.

' . ge@It is said that Baroum actually offered Mr. Spurgeon, the celebrated Eaglish . preacher, $20,000 for one year's lecturing tour in the United State.

Afterwards the Democracy of this County, with marked enthusiasm, met Mr. Latbam, who prevailed over Mr. Weller, for the nomination of Governor, and, on the day of election cast for the former a vote which the latter could never bave commanded for the some position. What has since occurred in . the history or achievements of Governor Weller tomake him so marvellously popular? It is to be hoped that interested scribblers in a matter of such grave importance, will not be permitted to impose on the public, and misrepresent the wishes of the ever faithful democracy of Nevada, The truth is everywhere apparent that the party is tired—yea, disgusted—with the oldfogy rule which hasso long weighed upon our party peace and prosperity. The people now earnestly desire thet the stallfed, pampered politicians of the last quarter of a century may be turned out to grass before they completely founder and die.— They now long to see a new shuffle with a new and clean pack. They have more confidence in the ability, industry and fidelity of the young man, whose judgment and ex ertions have triumphantly borne the party through the last two campaigns in this State.

The strict maintenance of this great anti-fanitical doctrine of “mind your own business, and forbear med: dling with the affairs of others,” is of itsclf asufficient guaranty to the perpetuity and glory of this unexampled Republic. We are gied that Judge Douglass basso aptly enforced this doctrine, and also that it bas feund channels of universal diffusion among the grest masses of the people, upon whom it must make a wholesome impression. We do not see, however, that Mr. Douglas has developed anything new in bis essay, or thrown the slightest light on the real point of eontreversy, which ia this: what is the political eondition of the people ia their ineohate condition, or when they have ceased with the names of those winning the prizes: Richard Redda....... $100. . 2 Whlliam Wallece...... . 38, . 3 James Treloar........ 50. 4 Thomas Rosewall.......25. 5 Richard Goladwothy...... 10. 6 Alexander Lethblean...... 5. . . .
