But the greatest folly in stumping, which
has fallen ynder our observation in the present canvass, is the sending of exotic stumpers up here in the mountains, where we have
as much home talent as we know whit to do
with. On Saturday evening, Measrs, N ugent
and Brosnan, «ceredited by the heads of the
Dougliemen of San Francisco, dak to
enlighten ond sstonish the mouutuineers of
Nevade.” Well, what did they do? Ask any
one of the crowd, that formed in close col-’
uma in front-of the tribune on Broad street,
ot that evening, and, if he-has the courage
and honesty to epeak~the truth, he will answer that, if our own John R. MeConnell
had not taken tho stand, the demoustration
would have been anything but flattering to
the Douglas cause. The glory of tho day,
Marengo, was nigh bemg eclipsed, under the
tactics of the exoties,. when, like another
Deraix, MeConnell came inte the, field and
retrieved it. Unlike Desaix, bis life was not
