wr evida Daily Transcript. CALIFORNIA, } ge cone Nevada County Official Press. spencer —_—— THURSDAY MORNING NOV, 13th. hn sor CRSA SN A ESTEE TI TEL ST I TT, RIvaALRY FOR THT RAILROAD, BETWEEN PLACES:—A little bit of flurry has been created between the papers of San Francisco and Sacramento about the western ter~ minus of the Pacific Railroad. Sacramento claims the honor, at teast for a time, and her leading newspaper -has made an ad hominem appeal to her citizens to take hold of the project and make it a Sacramento institution.— It has even claimed it to be essentially a Sacramento institution by virtue of the tact that the prominent men in the Central Pacific Railroad company are citizens of Sacramento. The papers of San Francisco take fire at the propositions of the Sacramento papers, and assert that their city is the natural terminus of the read; that its moneyed men must furnish a larger share of the capital; and that: ‘the obstructions in the river at Sacramento are of a permanent character, and before rhany years the navigation of the stream to the ‘distance of some miles further down must be impared, if not destroyed. Thus a sort of rivalry is suggested, which the Union has endeavored to smooth away» by telling the San Franciscans that Sacramento can make no pretenisons to the larger benefits of the road, which must necessarily belung:to San Francisco. This is accompanied by other plausible and soothing remarks quite politic for the time. We are anxious to have the first ground broke on the road without delay, and to see it followed up by a thousand workmen, or as many as can be employed. Iti order to get a railroad to the silver mines as expeditiously as possible, and obtain the immense and lucrative trade of the Territory on our eastern boundary. we have hitherto advocated leaving the section lying between Sacramento and Auburn as the lust to be built, and commence the work on the Pacific Railroad at some ‘point in the vicinity of Auburn. By doing . this, ull the energies of the company can be expended ou the road between Auburn and Nevada Territory, and « railroad communication between Sacramento and the silver mines sooner obtained—sooner by the time represented in constructing the road from Sacramento to Auburn. This we conceive to be an important consideration, because the amount of freight that would pass over the road in that time, which would otherwise go by teams, would pay a large percentage on the cost ef the read, and enable the company to build the section or sections on the valley plains all the more easily. Itis true, the iron &c., would have to be transported ever the Sacramento valley and Auburmvroads, tu build the railroad from Auburn to Washoe ; but the inducemeats of becoming beneficiaries, even for only a few months. of the trade and travel to and from the silver regions, would be so great that we do not doubt some equitable arrangement could be made with those railroads, which would be really advantageous to all the rail. road companies. We hold it to be a prime object te obtain the trade of Washoe at the earliest practic. able moment, and this wbject is not promoted in building first a railroad between two points already connected by railroad. By the arrangement we propose, it seems to us, all thought of rivalry between Sacramento and San Francisco is, at least, postponed until the time arrives for constructing the valley section. San Francisco can take hold of the mountain part of the read with a will, invest her money and bide her time. The advantages that would accrue to ‘the railreads already built, must be considerable and have a tendency to suppress with them all envious orantagonistic feeling for atime. When the Washoe trade is obtained there is no fear of rivals afterwards. We submit these remarks for the consideration'of those interested; but ~ we shall do all in our power for the Central Pacific Railroad after the plan of conatructin has been fully agreed upon. SUPPRESSED. —Gen. Wright bas ordered the Post Master of San Francisco to deny the Mountain Democrat of Placerville, the use %f the mails. Such an order is sapposed to have a destructive effect. upon the singular beauty of Dan Gelwicks countenance. You, bet, he will quote the Constitution on Gen. Wright, and demolish bim with the best of secession logic. ‘ tH" There are 1,926 bee hives in San Joaquia county, and 300,000 grape vines. mocratic. THe FALSEHOOD ExposED.—Our De“motratic friends have been loud-mouthed in the past abut the Republicans refusing to enlist. Ithas been brazenly asserted that none but Democrats were to be found ia the army. Republicans would’nt fight: not they. John Conness was guilty of promulgating this nonsense more than a year ago.— The Republicans, he said, drank cold water and would’nt fight—as if the first proposition was acrime and the last true. The time for testing the truth of these Democratic allegations has arrived. The State of Iowa mado provisions for her soldiers to vote, and they did so in the face of the enemy One regiment that went to Minnesota to fight the Indians gave the Republican State ticket, 493 votes and the Democratic 71. It also gave the candidates for Congress a similar vote. The aggregate vote of the 12th, 14th, 8th, 10th, 11th, 17th 2nd Battery, 2 compnnies in Missouri, and recruits to Ist cavalry, —all Iowa soldiers—was 1,307 for the Republican State ticket, and 251 for the DeThe 104th Regt. Illinois Volunteers, incamp, near Selbyville, Ky., voted, 844 for sustaining the President’s emancipation proclamation to only 15 against! These votes tell how the army feels, and pretty nearly what the. politics of the soldiers must be. There is another significant fact brought prominently forward in examining the, mitter we have in hand. It is found the Republican or Uniun loss in each State that has gone Democratic about corresponis with the number of soldiers the State has sent to the army, so that the truth is pretty well established at last, that Demecrats have staid at home to control the elections, while Republicans have taken up arms for their country. Had each State provided by law for allowing her soldiers to vote wherever they might be, the Democrats could not have succeeded anywhere. ee ee ScienTiFic Press.— We understand Warren B. Ewer, Esq., of Grass Valley has purchased the Scientific Press, of San Francisco, and has removed to take charge of his new purchase, as editor. We wish him pretty good luck. ACCIDENTALLY SHoT.—D. A. McConnell, of Gold Canon, Sierra county, while out hunting lately, was accidentally shot by a compauion. Theentire contents ofthe gun entered his body. The Messenger says it is not theught the wounds will prove serious. DEMOCRATIC GUNS.—The peculiar class of Democrats who rejoice over victories won by the enemies of their eountry, fired guns over the late ‘‘ Democratic ” victories in the Eastern States, at Marvsville, lowa Hill and Sacramento lately, A MONUMENT tothe memory of the late Daniel O’Connell, is about to be erected in the town of Ennis, Ireland—the seene of the famous Clare election in 1828. —_———a>_ Law IN CALIFORNIA.—In Mendocino a man attached some cattle and other stock. ‘They were sold for $1,815, and the cost of court, keepers, etc., were $1,905 78. The attachor had to pay $90 78 for the privilege of trying to collect his debt. THe St. Louis, Alton and Chicago Raijroad Company earned the first week of October, $26,949 59, against $21,560 99 the same week last year. fF The Territerial Enterprise gives’ a history of the attack cf Indians upon some ‘secessionists’'who were on their way East. The party were assailed and several killed wounded and sealped. te Certain parties in Josephine county, Oregon, have threatened violent resistance to any attempt that may be made to makea military arrest in that section. te Hon. John Bell has returned to his home in Tennessee, that region being, says the Richmond Dispatch, free from Yankees just now. te The public debt of Italy amounts at present to nearly one hundred and fifty million pounds eterling.

STaTe OF CALIFORNIA, EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Sacramento, November 1, 1862. The return of the yearly season, wisely observed since the days ot our fathers, by public acts of reverence and gratitude to the Giver of all good gifts, reminds us of our duty to give expression to that thankfulness which we as @ people sheuld most assuredly experience. A year of remarkable events is drawing to its close. With us, its commencement was signalized ,by a severity hitherto unknown; storm after storm swept over our State, and repeated floods spread desolation through large portions of our territory; suffering and want usurped the place where before had dwelt comfort and plenty; heavy burthens were imposed upon the generous, charitable, and benevolent, though greatly hghtened by the cheerfulness with whichthey were borne. Throughoyt the year, we have heard from afar-the‘noise of strife, and the clash of arme ; Civil War has raged with varied success, and withoat decisive results; the National Government has not yet subdued its enemies, nor risen above its perils—the People of the United States have before them a great work to accomplish, in delivering the Nation from the dangers by which it is environed. Nevertheless, we have occasion tu be grateful to Alinighty God for hindering any open active interference of foreign powers with our Government in its endeavors to right itself—for many signal and glorious successes vouchsafed to'the National arms by sea and land—for the readiness and alacrity with which the young and brave have rushed to the defence of Constitutional Liberty—for the assured hope that this must causeless and wicked Rebellion will be speedily crushed and an honerable and lasting peace be. established upon the basis rae by the’ Fathers of the Country—and for the general prosperity of the loyal States of our Unien, where Commerece, Manufactures, ard the Arts generally, still flourish ir alltheir former vigor, in striking contrast to the sufferings and convul« sions of ungenerous Foreign Powers. And here, within our own borders, we have reason to be thankful for public tranquillity, and exemption from the deplorable strife that rages in some of our sister States—for our freedom from pestilence and epidemic disease —fo1 -the prevalence of a charitablef and tolerant spirit towards honest differences of epinion—for the return of verdure to our wasted fields, and comfort to our late devas— tated hemes—for abundant harvests, and increase ot flocks—for the rich and constant yield of our, mines—for the success of our manufactures, and the various attempts to diversify our industry—for the flourishing condition of our cities and towns—for an in creasing interest in our schools and charitable institutions—for the assurance that the era is at hand, when will be inaugurated the great material desideratum of California, the Iron Road of the continent, the world and the age —for the numberless blessings of knowledge, civilization and hberty, and the institutions of religious freedom—for the unmistakable loyalty, and generous sentiments of our population—and tor the confidence that the blood of the Nation's children is not a vain offering upon the altar of their country, but a priceless gift that will secure untold bless~ ings to the generations that are to follow. New, therefore, I, LELAND STANFORD, Governor of the State ot California, do heres by set apart THURSDAY, the 27th day of NOVEMBER, A. D., 1862, as 0 day of Public ‘Thanksgiving and Prayer; and I earnestly invite all the people of this young and vigs oreus Commonwealth to appropriate the day to those uses, by assembling in their custom» ary places of worship, with acts of devotion and religion, and by engaging in such services as shall fitly attest all the grateful emotions of Teverent aad thankful hearts; to the end that it may please God te continue to us His favors, renew His mercies, and crown all His goodness with the smile of His approbation. In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed, the day and year above written. LELAND STANFORD, Governor of California. By the Goveroor: WM. H. WEEKs, Secretary of State. LATER FROM THE EAST. —— Washington, Nov. 11th,—On Sunday morning Capt, Dahlgreen, with one company of the Ist Indi:na and a small detachment of the 6th Ohio cavalrv, dashed into Fredericksburg, encountered eight companies of rebel cavalry. fought them hand to hand three hours and whipped them. They brought back 39 prisoners; with horses, accountrements, etc., and their wagons loaded with army cloth. Our loss was one killed and three wounded. A private letter from New Orleans, says that Gen. Butler has taken possession of two large plantations near the city, und has transported a large number of loyal blacks to them for active service. The number of fugitive blacks in the department of the Gulf, is increasing ata rapid rate, but by employing them in this way, says the writer, and paying them small wages, and charging them for their clothing, the Government will be fully ear fer the expense it has been put 0.

New, therefore, I, LELAND STANFORD, Governor of the State ot California, do heres by set apart THURSDAY, the 27th day of NOVEMBER, A. D., 1862, as 0 day of Public ‘Thanksgiving and Prayer; and I earnestly invite all the people of this young and vigs oreus Commonwealth to appropriate the day to those uses, by assembling in their custom» ary places of worship, with acts of devotion and religion, and by engaging in such services as shall fitly attest all the grateful emotions of Teverent aad thankful hearts; to the end that it may please God te continue to us His favors, renew His mercies, and crown all His goodness with the smile of His approbation. In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the Great Seal of the State to be affixed, the day and year above written. LELAND STANFORD, Governor of California. By the Goveroor: WM. H. WEEKs, Secretary of State.

A private letter from New Orleans, says that Gen. Butler has taken possession of two large plantations near the city, und has transported a large number of loyal blacks to them for active service. The number of fugitive blacks in the department of the Gulf, is increasing ata rapid rate, but by employing them in this way, says the writer, and paying them small wages, and charging them for their clothing, the Government will be fully ear fer the expense it has been put 0.
