evade Buily Transcript. ‘City and County Official Press ES SATURDAY MORNING JULY 18th OssécTs oF REBELLION.—One of the prime objects of the rebels in attempting to establish an independent government, is the restoration of the old laws of : primogeniture discarded by the founders of our Government, and erecting again aristocracy on the ' yuin of the common people. Those lordly users of the lash, have had others to do their work so long, and have grown so fat on the flesh and blood of the black race, that they cannot tolerate labor as honorable or labor~ "ere as their équals. From learning to despise the blacks for their degraded condition a natural step and legitimate when the mind has been started on the aristocratic course— that of promulgating the doctrine that all pour whites are not fit to enjoy the right of of suffrage, but are worth nothing except to build an aristocracy upon. ‘I'he leading rebls have a dislike to universal suffrage. The Southern lords of the lash cannot recognize @ poor man Who earns his bread by the sweat ‘of his brow as their equal in any respect.— Nothing could be more repugnant to their feelings than to see their votes neutralized by an equal number of ‘‘poor white trash.” Only the owner of negroes should be allowed to vote in the estimation of the cotton lords. All others should be kept down, trampled ‘ upon, and made subservient tu tho uses of the aristocrats, forever. _ The Richmond Enquirer was wont to take the ground that the defect in the argu~ ment in favor of slavery, was confining it to ~ the African race.“ That paper insisted that to geake fhe logic sound it was necessary. to maintain the justice and economy of slavery without regard to color or race. It said that when the position was assumed that white as wellas black slavery was just, the argu~ ment could be well maintained , and not until then, _ That such is the sentimeat. of the aristoerates who have forced the South into rebels lion cannot well be denied. Itia so well understood that it seems inexplicable that the jower classes of the North should be found to have so much of sympathy with the aristocrate and so little with the oppressed classes of the rebellious States. But the resistance to the draft shows how the Irish of the Northern cities as well os some other fore " eigners feel towards oppression and the op~ preasore. That no one may dispute the argumest we advance, we quote from De Bow's Southlords. It says: “The real civilization of a country is in its aristocracy. The masses are molded into soldiers and artizans by intellect, just as matter and the elements of nature are made into telge and steam nes. The poor, who Jabor allday, ure tuo tired at night to study books. It ys make them learned, they soon forget all that is not necessary in the common transactions of life. To make an aristocrat in the future we must sacrifice a thousand paupers. Yet we would by all means wake them—make them permanent too, by lawe of entait and primogeniture. The right to gove ides in a very-amall minority; the duty to obey is inberent in the grent masses of mankind. All government begins with usurpation, and is continued by force. There is nothing to which the South enters taine so greata dislike as universal suffrage. Wherever foreigners settle thet in large sc rmiee there universal eu will exA Micury Havt.—We have not destroy« ed the whole of Lee’s army. We have not taken Richmond, or .razed Charleston. Bragg is not yotoutto pieces, er Johnson surrendered. Nor has the guerilla Morgan been captured. si But the month has given us great victorios. We can afford to forego the pleasure of hearing of the annibilation of Lee's army and every other rebel force, in view of the-great . reaults that have crowned our feats of arms, during the present month. July, 1863; will ever be memorable in American history. The loyal men of the Union have taken two vf the strangest places in the world— Vieksburg and Port Hudson. They have met {the rebel army’ in Pennsylvania and routed it with immense slaughter. They have driven Bragg and Johnson and either weakoned or demoralized both. They have ‘ forte on Morris Island, and are preparing there for the bombardment of Fort Sum~ ter. In doing all this work they have killed and takan prisoners not lees than 75,000 reb« ele—a mighty haul from the confederate raaks. Allthis was done in even less. This is big work and shows what can be dove by the soldiers of the Republic when well led. . the larger towns of the State. Some of our . that too with a liberality characteristic of . rebellion of all time ; sustaining an army that as slaves, they have taken one step more—} . gendered. We must Win.—Subscriptions in aid of the Poles are being raised in prominent California merchants give literally for the Poli#h cause. While our nation is contending fer existence, her people, taxed as they were never before taxed, and ealled upon for great sacrifices, have still a corner in their hearts where the oppressed and suffering of other lands find a-place. We can send ship-loads of food to starving, ungrateful England, te the poor operatives of France, and the insurreetionary Poles, money, and our people. Ametica is not in such despet=.} ate straits that she cannot stretch forth ber hand to the needy, and uplift the down trod~ den of vther countries. Was ever the like seen before in the history of mankind? A nation grappling withthe most formidable Yor size and expense casts the wars of Napo~ leon in the shade; beset at home with cop~ perhead enemies that are endeavoring to rob the Government of its strength ; threat-ened without and within by people inimical to its existence; yet finding still money and sympathy in large bounty for struggling humanity in other. lands! . The like has never been seen before on the globe. A. people with sucha spirit can never be crushed.— Their purposes are eternal. Destiny wills that the friends of humanity and universal freedom must have their way. THe Primaries TO-DAY.—At the recommendation of the Central Committee of the county the primary elections generally take place to-day throughout the county. It is the most important political day in the year saving only the day of election, Under ouf . system of party working the primary elec» tions decide in great degree the nominations and, therefore, the primaries are of mere importance than county conventions. _ The county has to elect this year new offi~ cers throughout, and very much depends upon who are elected at the primaries whether the county is to be well ‘served for the coming two years or not. Itis decidedly for the interest ofevery citizen to turn out to-day, in all parts of the county and see that representative men are elected to attend the county nominating convention, who will use proper discretion in selecting the servants of the people. There are good men generally spoken of for the various offices. Theduty of the-citizen is tu do what he can to procure the best mea for officers. We suppose there will be no unusual strife tovday in our city. The candidates for Sheriff willdo their ut. most, and as the contest is made for that office alone, we may .expect warm work, though we trust, no ill feelings will be eusakes aie ne pagal Soy akian . man can live lor. $100 a month. It will cost about double that amount for a couple. Then for each little one add thi r cent., and you have about the cost of living in Virginia city, Nevada Territory. Mrs. Dovetas’ Prorperty.—The Cin. cinnati Enquirer states that the paragraph going the rounds of the papers, to the effect that Mrs. Douglas, widow of Stephen A. Douglas, deceased, has a right to dower in some of her busband’s estate, in consequence other property, is incorrect. Mr. Douglas died imsolvent, leaving her nothing but the Louisville Journat publishes letter from Paris, from a on intimately connected with the Fre Court, who. says that a singular letter. had been received at™ that’ Court from Jeff. Davis and seventy-two uther leading men of the South. They urge the Emperor Louis Napoleon III to recog~ nize the Confederacy, because it is the intention to establish a nobility in the South when the war is over, and that France ought to encourage nobility and discourage democra< ey. ; eos Duncan STEWART, a-clerk in the Treas~ ury Department, fell from the fourth .story window of a house in Washington, between one and two o'clock in the morning, and died in a few minutes afterward. His roommate shortly before left him sitting reading in the window, where he is supposed to have fallen asleep. . A Goup PLatrorm.—Hon. J. W. Menzies, of Kentucky, thus concludes. a very able address to his constituents: “J am oposed to a separation of the States. I am lor no peace, no suspension of hostilities, besed upon the idea of separation. Thelaws of the United States must be executed throughout the whule country. I am tor the preservation of the Government of the United States, at whatever cost, and against all who may stand in the way. A CHAPLAIN reading the bible to the sick soldiers in one of the hospitals, hit upon the story of Samson and the incident of his slay~ ing thousands of Philistines with the jawbone of an ass, when he was suddenly inter rupted by a wounded man, apparently asleep, with the inquiry: ‘‘Who told that story?’ “It is from the Bible,” solemnly responded the Chaplain. ‘Well, hang ine if I did’nt thiok it was a dispatch signed “John Pope, Major-Génoral Commanding.” Tne Bie Race For 2,000 Do.iars !— celebrated horses ‘Honest Ance,” the prop~ erty of Mr. Robert Watt, of Grass Valley, and the celebrated mare, “Whitehall Maid,” the property of George F. Jacobs, uf Qua. ker Hill, has come to a close for $1,000 a side, at mile heate;: 3 beat in 5, to harness to rule. Little is ventured in saying this is going to be one of the most honorable of races, as each of the owners of the horses backs bis Opinion with his money, and a close and well contested race may be expected, as,.the EaSTern News.—The riots still contio« ue in New York, and probably will not be suppressed till the regiments sent for return from the war. A great many horrid barbarities have been perpetrated on unoffending ed and maltreated most shockingly. Their houses have been burned, and attempts have been made to burn them alive in their houses. To such an extent does copperhead prejudice. go. Mayor Updyke is in favor of proclaiming martial law at once, but is opposed by Gov. Seymour. Grape has been used with some effect on the rioters, quite a number having been killed. ’ Anvther riot had broken out in Troy, stroying the office of the Times. Notwithstanding these troublesome riots, gold has come dowa to 127, : Gen. Pillow is repurted in the vicinity of Macedonia, Tenn., with 6,000 men half of Our forces are establishing batteries for long range on Morrie Island, probably for the bombardment of Sumter. _ Gnerrilla Morgan was at West Union, Morgan county, Ohio, ten wiles from the river on the 16th. Thegunboatsare watching him closely. 4 Henness Roure.—The merits of the Heuneasroute are getting to be aéknowledged pretty generally. Tne San Francisco Herald says uf it: Somé of the papers have said that a trial trip over the Sierra Nevada has recently been mide, which terminated to the disadvan of the Henness route.
