Mr. eese, whether through fear of life or property ern non-resistance principle I know not, declined to make complaint, and strange to say, nothing has been done. Where, you ask, in the different grades of civilization doea society here stand? It is bad enough to hear secessionists say that our Grvernmect is “ played out;” but it is indeed sad to hear. Union men say so, and charges that it affords them no protection. Who objects to military authority being used in such cases as this correspondent depicts? Secessionists, or their allies, and notie others. ‘The man who objects to justice and order, is an enemy to the law, and ought to receive retributive justice himeelf. ‘ASTERN News.—A_ dispatch to the TRANSCRIPT, claewhere, presente a budget of Eastern news. It is rather a mixed mess; but we hope nothing can be discuvered in it favoring the impression that Get! McClellan, is about retiring to spend with his troops the remainder of the summer season at Saratoga. ‘Gen. Sigel has again shown himself a Gener: . al worthy te be trusted with any command he would take. Always put in the rear, the most respensible post a General can occupy,. he has evet proved himself the man for the oceasion. God bless and promote him, if the uation don’t! The news will speak for itself in a great degree. But there is one thing certain, th: reb. els have done much to turn the tide of battle against us. It is a shame that eighteen mill, ions of people should be made to yield an inch to the most brutal-rebels that ever infested the earth. The people should be informed, “without deception; 6fthe exact condition. of. ~“eruelly treated by the accursed rebels, we, supinely allow them to spread their baleful influence in a State loyal to the core. Their ‘neers at the Government have their effect. Thé' man who has not spirit enough to resent abusive language may soon ba expected to receive kicks with complacency. The jeers . againet the Government ot our fathers may soon culminate in overt acis against it. ‘ Au ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”’“ A stitch in time saves nine.” We have all heard how a horse was lost by inattention in time, toa horse«shoe nail. The lessons of all history—the history of the rebellion—the instinct of self proservation.—all; teach us, that, insubordination is best to be ‘crushed in its incipiency. That there is in-cipient treason in this State is not to be doubted. Itis to be found every where, and unless something is done in a military way the time is not long hence when rebellien will flout its black flag in our faces, unless a grand vigilance committee having its. ramifications in all the precincts of the State. is organized and put to its work. Why, there is actual trampling upon Uaion men in Los Angeles. Read the following extract of a letter from Los Angeles to the Bulletin, and say if such wrongs should be tolerated or go nnredressed: Secesh continues to be bold and defiant here. It does and ‘says just about what it pleases. As some Union men, in bitterness say there is not much law here but what they have in their own hands. "The stringent military orders issued from tithe to time in the Pacific Department seem but a mockery, in view of the outrageous acts and talk that are permitted everywhere throughout that Department, especially where not repressed by mere, public opinion. Andi’ inS n Franei co and Sacramento where pul lic opinion isa potency in favor-of loyalty, nen talk arrant treason in Court and Convention, and on street-cornéra what may they not do here on the frontiers aad in communities where public opimon, instea' of repressing it is tainted as hasbeen well said with the very ‘fetor ef secescioniam?" Js it any wonder that loyal citizens ere insulted and persecuted, and-that their hves are threatened, and that the secession range victories are glorified pubLely and notin a corner: and that the Presicent and national generals and army are rewled, and the very names of dead heroes, hike the gallant Lyon and Ellaworth, aad others should be cursed, and their deaths @xulted over with semaesictll yA or that the wish should be permitted to be frequently and pubiicaly expreased here that the patrietic legion * marching on" agginst the great Conspiracy, may be killed off by the huadreds “ thousands. ere, in a loyal State, secesaionism is ata premium; for a secessionist, fo what he may, is not disturbed, while a Caion man can hardly liv: without being al hiniself or hearing his cause.blackguareae ridiculed. é It has come ‘te be a prc verb that a man cannot be a Umen van in this part of the without m king peouniary sacrifice. et only is Unionism not popular here, but aflaire, Instead of disheartening them, it” will nerve them anew for the contest. While flattering representations are made it cannot be expected that a people will arouse in full might. To meet the emergency, let the emergency be made known, and the country will be equal to it. We do not like the news at all. Itis too indefinite. War AND STATE PoLL Tax.—We are indebted to the Controller of State for the following table of amounts paid into the State Treasury by the’ counties during the present mouth. It will beseen that Nevada bas paid more liberally than any other county according to its population, save Solana, to support the war, and is only oxceeded by San Francisco in amount. Other counties have paid the State poll tax much more freely then ours, which is owing to some cause not yet explained.

Under cover of hight they burned 7 wagons, runoff a num ber of horses and mulea and took about 100 priguners. They also took Gen.

Pope helda the Railread bridges with two commanding positions, neni Rappahannock. New “York, Aug. 25th.—A Rappahannock letter eays that on the morning of the 2ist, the enemy opened a battery on our centre and continued throwing shot and shell vigorously for several hours.

The Chippewa difficulties following so close upon the Sioux raid causes great alarm in the Northern part ‘of the State. Citizensare useing every means to meet the emergeney , {#" The Union ‘Administration nominees for the Legislature in this county are for maintaining the government intact till Gabriel toots his horn. They are not, therefvre, ia favor of secret secessionists for the U.S. Senator—not by several loads of poles. How do their opponents stand on the main question’? Are they unequivocally for supporting the Administration? Clearly not. Are they for the covert enemy of the Administrati, Milten S. Latham? ‘That is what the people demand to kaow. The Democratic ticket is supported by secessionists. That of itself, without farther consideration, is sufficient warning for any man of patriotic impulse to beware of it. The man who can be indorsed by--an-enemy to the country is liable to suspicion We see no appreciable difference between willingly receiving secession votes in a loyal state and receiving stolen goods. The receiver is either occupying a false position towards the country or a true one with his principles, If the former is the-case, let him right bimself, by promptly retiring from the canvass If the latter be the case he ought to be politically garroted at once. This. contest requires a distinct enumeration of principles and designe. We ask ofthe Democratic Candidates what their objects are’ Let us have no subterfugenow. Are they for Latham or not? Thatis the first question the people want to have explicitly answered. Union Meerine at Dutcs FLat.— A stirring time they had at Dutch Flat on Meaday, on the adventof Hon. A. A.

While flattering representations are made it cannot be expected that a people will arouse in full might. To meet the emergency, let the emergency be made known, and the country will be equal to it. We do not like the news at all. Itis too indefinite.

The Democratic ticket is supported by secessionists. That of itself, without farther consideration, is sufficient warning for any man of patriotic impulse to beware of it. The man who can be indorsed by--an-enemy to the country is liable to suspicion We see no appreciable difference between willingly receiving secession votes in a loyal state and receiving stolen goods. The receiver is either occupying a false position towards the country or a true one with his principles, If the former is the-case, let him right bimself, by promptly retiring from the canvass If the latter be the case he ought to be politically garroted at once. This. contest requires a distinct enumeration of principles and designe. We ask ofthe Democratic Candidates what their objects are’ Let us have no subterfugenow. Are they for Latham or not?
