ee emeemenent Office, No. 36 Commercial street. = = a i pad a PRIDAY MORNING, SEPT. 6th. THE DIE 18 CAST. At the moment 6f writing this, we have teceived returns of the eléction from but ~. g few counties, and many of them, no doubt,are defective. Such as they are, they are presented to our readers in the same words and figures in which we received them. We entertain the hope of being enabled, in a very few days, to give the entire vote of the State . a ae far it has been given for Congressmen and State officers. ; From the rather imperfect lights before ‘ts, we are inclined to the belief that. a reapectable plurality of the electors of the . State have signified their will that Leland ~ Stanford, of Sacramento, the gubernatorial, candidate of the Republican party, sball be ‘the successor of Governor Downey in the Executive Chair. Thougli we took no further part in the recent election, than just to quietly deposit our ticket in the ballot box, we are not at all surprised at the manifestations of popular favor with which the nominee of the Republican party has been received. The Stanford vote is but the palpable exhibition of the deep-seated and widespread Union sentiment of the State. Mr Conness and Mr. Stanford were made the . points of concentration of this Union sentiment, and popular opinion~ has but-indicated a readier ébedience to,the centripetal attrac_ tion of Mr. Stanford. Whether that same popular opinion was right or wrong, in regarding our gifted fellow citizen, John R. McConnell, as the representative of the Disunion sentiment, is a quéstion, the investigation of which is not within the province of our self-imposed political neutrality. Suffice it to say that popular opinion has set him down as the embodiment of Disunion, and . treated him aecordingly. Of the justice or injustice of popular verdicts, politicians and men who live by popular favor must‘be the “judges. The people have spoken through the sacred medium of the ballot box, and what they have spoken is conclusive and irreversible. ‘Throwing aside all considerations of the orthedoxy or heterodoxy of the three gubernatorial candidates, in respect to the perpetuity of the Union, it may be permitted us ‘to say, that, mentally and morally, neither of them would reflect disgrace upon the high otfice to which they recently aspired. ‘The time has gone by, in California, for vice and imbecility to be caressed by the thoughtless multitude, Pigmies are no longer permitted te thrust themselves into the gladiatorial arena where only giants should contend. Taking it for granted—as we are warrantea by the intelligence thus: far received— that Leland Stanford has been chosen Governor of the State, there is nothing either surprising or frightful in the fact. Mauger the eloquent terms of vilification in which his political opponents dissected his character before the election, and the pathos with which they warued the people not to clothe him with office, we are inclined to the belief that none of his predecessors fave left the gubernatorial chair, leaving a better record ‘behind him, than will be. It is trué that he has not been hackneyed in the subtile ways of politicians, but he has acquitted himself as a peaceful and upright citizen and an industrious and successful man of business. He may rot have made listening Senates thrill * with his bunsts of eloquence, but he has carefully studied that branch of political economy, peculiarly applicable to California, and has a practical acquaintance with the precessea by which a young state grows in greathess and happiness. To be brief, we do not see anything in the been really . elected—that shonld excite special alarm in the breast of any Californian. The reputation for honesty and good sense, which he established as a pritate citizen, he will scarcely be silly enough to throw away asa public functionary. Of one thing we are sure, and that is, that if California secedes from the Great American Republic, “~~. during his administration, it will not be by InIsHMEN-DivipED.—It is stated that ’ two sons of John Mitehell fought in Beauregard’s army at Bull Run, while Thomas 4 upon her woman’s rights, and stoutly, Union, of Wednesday, briefly sums up. its pony dispatches. It seems that news has been received in New York that contradicts the. reported surrender of Major Lynde’s forces in Mesilla Valley, to 300 Texans. It has also intelligence ‘from Rosencranz’s eoluthn in Western Virginia, which is deemed . trustworthy. At last accounts he was intrenching himself, and in no immediate danger ofan attack. The withdrawal of the rebels from Fairfax Court House recently, is reported to have been in the nature’ of a stampede, owing to a false report of the advance of McClellan. There appears to be no present intention on the part of the rebels to-cross the Potomac. Senator Johnson, it is said, expects to head an-army within the borders of Tennessee. Western Virginia is deemed safe against the machinations of the Secessionists. A Secession newspaper establishment, the Aleghanian, has been destroyed by the people of Grafton. DESTINED FOR Texas.—The San Francisco Evening Journal, which seems td speak authoritatively, announces that it is new definitely settled that the five regiments ordered out by the President to be placed under the command of Gen. Sumner, are to go to Texas, via Arizona. ‘The command, if raised in season, will start in November or thereabouts, and. will probably winter in the Valley of the Rio Grande, at or near Mesilla or El Paso, and proceed towards San Antonio, after the roads become settled in the spring. This would make the trip comparative'y pleasant for the men, and would compel Texas to turn her attention to her own borders, instead of sending assistance to the Confederates at the North. ARTICLES OF Dress MADE OF PaPEeR.— Paper pocket handkerchiefs, as in Japan, are next looked for in England. The journals there report that the following named articles made of paper are for-sale: Paper collars (reversable), plain or Masala patterns ; paper shirt fronts, embroidered or plain; paper waistcoasts, iinitation velvet, watered silk, quilted, etc ; paper scarfs, in every pattern color, paper bands for clergymen and members of the bar ; paper lace ( Valenciennes or Brussels pattern) for trimmings of dresses, bonnets, etc; paper bonnets, of the latest fashion, trimmed with paper lace and flowers ; and paper hats, turbans, ete, (waterproof) in every shape and color. _ -CavaLry Horses.—The Evening Journal, learns that the horses for the use of the Cavalry volunteers are being purchased rapidly by the proper authorities. Between one and two hundred have already been passed upon, and enough are already on the way from the different parts of the State to fill up the entire order, The horses thus far purchased are mostly of half Spanish stock, and tough, and perhaps well qualified for the use intended, are sinall in ‘size, few of them being large enough to meet the requirements of the army regulations in regard to. dragoon horses.a a ee A SMALL FALu.—The editor of the San Bernanrdino Patriot says that he attempted to visit the Holeomb’ Valley by the sawmill route, one day last week, and lost his horse, which went over a precipice and fell a little matter of 2000 feet. about for several days, without food or water, before reaching © human habitation. A. Woman's. WILL.—The Jacksonville (Orégon) Gazette, in_a long letter from its editor, dated at Sulphur Springs, deveted to matters and events pertaining to emigration, relates the following as one more evidence that— “+ He’s a fool, who thinks, by force or skill, To turn the current of a woman’s will.” An instance of the force of woman's logic was evidenced at the point where the roads branch respectively to the old Emigrant and Honey Lake routes. One party having three wagons had concluded to travel the first named road. Men proposed a woman disposed. When the start was about being made upon the settled route, one of the women entered a formal protest against that, and bespoke a decided preference for the Honey Lake road. Her protest and preference were apparently disregarded. This indiffeaence fired her. She no longer attempted merge remonstrance or coaxing——she stood 1tively, declared she would not go the Emi. grant road, if she had to travel the Honey wake all the way alone. She was “ talked to,” reasoned with (idle task), coaxed. All to mc agp ores Her resolve was fixed, immovable, unbending, and at the expiration of a few hours disputation and entreaty, the pean ad yg agreed to go the road had: declared for, and accordingly turned into it. thanks of the train, fer had they gone the first propesed route; the rs have met with the wags Ny is feared) the has befallen Dr. Wells and his ; whereas, they are now safe past all trouble from the Indians. He _ himself wandered As things have gone, she is entitled to the _ Provucrive SsLmon Fisnine.—One of that the run of salmon at this time, is greater than ever was known before. One buodred to each boat could be taken nightly, and those of the largest size and finest quality, but as the present demand does not warrant extensive packing, only a few boats are engaged and only one drift made by each, just ufficient to supply the demand for the fresh . fish. : PISCATORIAL.—A couple of disciples_of . Izaak Walton went out fishing three days lately in Shasta, and returned -with-three hundred trout. i A MAD Dop 1x a SchouL Rodm.—The following exciting account of a. mad dog ina school room we copy from the Broome county (N. Y.,) Gazette : ; A mad dog was killed recently in Sherwoo street. He started from some point near Texas and Upper Isles, biting several dogs in his way, until he reached the residence of Cyrus Sherwood. Here, foaming. at the mouth and evidently rabid, he was discovered by Sherwood, whose ddg-he had bitten. Sherwood hastily procured his rifle, followed the dog, shot at and wounded him, but not sufficiently to stop his progress. He finally ry up at-a school house, where a school was kept by Miss Louise Williams A little girl, belonging to McMahon, happened to be out of school in the wood shed. The dog came up. and began to fondle the child, threw her down, scratched her face with his feet and then licked it. ‘The teacher, hearing her eries, came out and tried to drive him off. While doing so, the dog darted past her into the school room, and rap several times around the room, among the frightened scholars before he could be expelled. All other efforts failing, the teacher, with great presence of mind, held out her hand and coaxed him out of the room. Soon after Sherwood appeared, running at, his utmost spee.i, rifle in hand, to dispatch him; but before reaching him he was finally shot. Fortunately no one in the sehool house was injured. MeMahon’s little daugh ter received some ‘scratches in the face, which the dog licked, thereby endangering her life. When heentered the school room he was foaming at the mouth, and covered with blood, issuing from the wound from the rifle shot of Sherwood. te ‘What are you going to do, you bad woman's boy ?” said' Mrs. Partington, as Ike passed through the kitchen into the garden. “Down with the seseshers !” he shouted, and she looked out just in season to see the top of a weigelia bush fall before the artillery sword of Paul that the youngster held inhis hand. “You had better go to Molasses Jugtion, if you want-to-de-that;* she said, Trestraming his hand as it was lifted against her favorite fuchsia, ready te decapitate the plant that she had watched with almost a mother’s care for three winters. ‘Dear me!” she murmured half to herself, ‘‘what a terrible thing -war is, when even the children show such signs of consanguinity, and brother is pitied against brother, I can’t bear to think of it. Isaac, dear, go down and buy me an extradition of the paper.” Ike departed with a half dime, and from the fact that no change came back, Mrs. Partington supposed the price was raised. So says the Boston Gazelte. Pee tee Merete Eee te Secretary Cameron, being overrun with applications from ladies for the places of nurses in the army hospitals, thought to get rid of their importunities by issuing a decree that all who ‘accepted the post should not wear hoops. Finding this readily agreed to by his torthentors. his next dodge was to igsue an order that no one should be accepted who was under thirty years of age. This did the business. There are. no women of that age in the country. ——— te There are four hundred acres of tobacco being raised in Hatfield, Mass., the present season.

M’NAUCHTON, I have been running a line of stages into your bee he ~ towne since the first of June, thereby reducing Qos AND MECHANICAL DENTIST, the fare to Marysville from six dollars to three. My little quill wheel opposition caused the fare between your towns and Sacramento to be reduced from ten to seven dollars. I have never called on your patronage, as I could do well hauling fruit and you could do well riding with the California Stage Company fer one dollar, which company, I hope, gave you good satisfaction, especially that portion of you’ who -were liberal enough to pay me two dollars and ride with that company. I now ask you to consider my case and ride-with me, or pay me sufficiently, and you can always ride to Marysville for three dollars. I do not intend to lose any money running stages for any community ; . worked for my.money and I do intend to keep it. It is better for you to try and pay me to keep the fare to a reasonable price at all times than to pay one dollar to-day and have six dollars imposed on you to-morrow. I shall stock the road from Marysville to Sacramento on the 10th of September next, then I will take you through feom Nevada to mento for six @. lars; bat without your good will and some of your money, I cannot stay with you.

Y.,) Gazette : ; A mad dog was killed recently in Sherwoo street. He started from some point near Texas and Upper Isles, biting several dogs in his way, until he reached the residence of Cyrus Sherwood. Here, foaming. at the mouth and evidently rabid, he was discovered by Sherwood, whose ddg-he had bitten. Sherwood hastily procured his rifle, followed the dog, shot at and wounded him, but not sufficiently to stop his progress. He finally ry up at-a school house, where a school was kept by Miss Louise Williams A little girl, belonging to McMahon, happened to be out of school in the wood shed. The dog came up. and began to fondle the child, threw her down, scratched her face with his feet and then licked it. ‘The teacher, hearing her eries, came out and tried to drive him off. While doing so, the dog darted past her into the school room, and rap several times around the room, among the frightened scholars before he could be expelled. All other efforts failing, the teacher, with great presence of mind, held out her hand and coaxed him out of the room. Soon after Sherwood appeared, running at, his utmost spee.i, rifle in hand, to dispatch him; but before reaching him he was finally shot. Fortunately no one in the sehool house was injured. MeMahon’s little daugh ter received some ‘scratches in the face, which the dog licked, thereby endangering her life. When heentered the school room he was foaming at the mouth, and covered with blood, issuing from the wound from the rifle shot of Sherwood. te ‘What are you going to do, you bad woman's boy ?” said' Mrs. Partington, as Ike passed through the kitchen into the garden. “Down with the seseshers !” he shouted, and she looked out just in season to see the top of a weigelia bush fall before the artillery sword of Paul that the youngster held inhis hand. “You had better go to Molasses Jugtion, if you want-to-de-that;* she said, Trestraming his hand as it was lifted against her favorite fuchsia, ready te decapitate the plant that she had watched with almost a mother’s care for three winters. ‘Dear me!” she murmured half to herself, ‘‘what a terrible thing -war is, when even the children show such signs of consanguinity, and brother is pitied against brother, I can’t bear to think of it. Isaac, dear, go down and buy me an extradition of the paper.” Ike departed with a half dime, and from the fact that no change came back, Mrs. Partington supposed the price was raised. So says the Boston Gazelte. Pee tee Merete Eee te Secretary Cameron, being overrun with applications from ladies for the places of nurses in the army hospitals, thought to get rid of their importunities by issuing a decree that all who ‘accepted the post should not wear hoops.

M’NAUCHTON, I have been running a line of stages into your bee he ~ towne since the first of June, thereby reducing Qos AND MECHANICAL DENTIST, the fare to Marysville from six dollars to three. My little quill wheel opposition caused the fare between your towns and Sacramento to be reduced from ten to seven dollars. I have never called on your patronage, as I could do well hauling fruit and you could do well riding with the California Stage Company fer one dollar, which company, I hope, gave you good satisfaction, especially that portion of you’ who -were liberal enough to pay me two dollars and ride with that company. I now ask you to consider my case and ride-with me, or pay me sufficiently, and you can always ride to Marysville for three dollars. I do not intend to lose any money running stages for any community ; . worked for my.money and I do intend to keep it. It is better for you to try and pay me to keep the fare to a reasonable price at all times than to pay one dollar to-day and have six dollars imposed on you to-morrow. I shall stock the road from Marysville to Sacramento on the 10th of September next, then I will take you through feom Nevada to mento for six @. lars; bat without your good will and some of your money, I cannot stay with you.
