That the gentleman is now using the idea for
the purpose of securing democratic votes, we
are not disposed to assert. We presume he

Wing State Convention.

The Whig State Convention assem-
bled at Sacramento on the 25th instant,
for the purpose of nominating two can
didates for members of Congress, and a
candidate for Clerk of the Supreme
Court-to be licked at the next election
of course. After effectIng an organiza-
ton and bringing candidates before the
convention for nomination, they ad-
i0urned to the Orleans Hotel, where the
candidates could have an opportunity to
steady their nerves and address the vast
congregation of Whiggery. This was
done for the purpose Of testing the cali
bre Of the numerous aspirants for Con-
gressional honors. This was bringing
ambition right down to the work but
being where they could look into mag

c0lntenance of Bacchus, hey went at

dates for the nominations to Congress,
were Calhoun Benham, of San Francisco
and George Washington Bowie, of Colu-

as the representive of the mercantile and
white kid glove interest of San Francis
co. They are said to be Know Nothing
candidates. But be that as it may,

been the day determined upon by all
counties for holding the convention for

announces the 9th Of August as the
day, and Tehama as the place for hold
ing the convention We made a simi-
lar announcement last week, and as we
have heard nothing to The contrary since
these publications we're made, presume
that it's generally understood through
out the District. We are gratifed at
being able to make this announcement,
for we were fearful at one time the des-

ly understood throughout the District
