NEVADA GAZETTE JANUARY 4 & 5, 1865 3
arrogant and pretentious, most of them fully appreciate the power and influence of the Gazette. They
will not patronize it to the extent of a dime, if they can help it; and they use all the influence they can
bring to bear upon their Union neighbors who admit them to social intimacy, to induce them to quit
patronizing this “mean Abolition sheet,” and transfer their support to one which, they say, “knows how to
treat political opponents with courtesy and fairness.” We have heard recently of several instances where
secesh females, visiting Union lady friends, have chided them for taking and reading “that mean Abolition
Gazette,” when they could get such respectable papers as the National and T’other one at the same price.
We feel highly complimented by these attempted secesh raids upon our circulation and business. We
publish the Gazette as an unconditional Union paper, and not to please or comfort traitors, or for the
purposes of a rebel business directory. And, while we admit the truth of the adage that “it is better to have
the good-will of a dog than his ill-will,” we don’t think it applies to black-hearted, hell-begotten traitors,
who meet Union men and women on the street and in the social circle with a Judas smile and kiss, and in
secret plot their assassination and ravishment. .. .
ANOTHER VOLUNTEER COMPANY.—Mr. E. W. Brown of this city, a gentleman whom we
believe to be loyal, worthy and capable, has applied to Governor Low for authority to recruit in this
county a company for the Eighth Regiment, (Artillery,) California Volunteers. The time prescribed
for raising the regiment has expired, and only three companies have yet been mustered in. Mr. Brown
proposes to get permission to “locate and extension,” and is confident that he can soon recruit a company
of good, loyal men without much difficulty. We are inclined to think he could—with perhaps a little aid
from adjoining counties. .. . The bounties now paid are: By the State, in coin, $160 to each raw recruit;
$300 to each veteran, and $5 per month extra pay during term of service; by the United States, $100. The
Government pay is $15 per month, with clothing and rations.
THE District Court will meet at ten o’clock this morning.
