The judicial Conventions

We stated in our last issue on the au-
thority Of Col Baker, that the Conyen-
ton for this Judicial District had been
called to meet at Red Bluffs on the 25th
inst. We have since received = commu-
nication from ths corresponding com
mittee of Trinity county, under date of
July 16, which states that the counties
composing the 9Th Judicial District,
"have fixed upon the 9th day of August
as the time, and Tehama as the place
for holding Of said convention" 1t is
to be regretted that the time and place
of holding the Convention cannot be
determined upon and understood by all
In view Of the misunderstanding now
existing in regard to the time and place
holding the Convention, we would sug-
gest taat our delegation be in attendance
at Tehama ON the 9TH Of August next,
as present indications would seem TO
render trip to Red Bluffs on the 25th
of the present month useless.

ANNEXATIoN OF THE SANDWICH Is
LANDS. The San Francisco Herald states
that orders were received in that city,
by the late steamer, for Com mnodore Du-
laney, requiring the immediate despatch
Of two armed vessels to the Sandwich
Islands, on the public service "This
coupled with the positive information
conveyed in our Washington correspon-
dence, of news having reached the Cab
met that the cession of the Islands had
been determined upon by the King and
his ministers, would signify determina-
ton on the part of our government not
to be interfered with by any foreign
power in extending the protection Of our
flag over the Islands, and to afford KAN
ehameha countenance and encourage
ment in the step he is about to take. :"
The possession Of these Islands are of
considerable Importance to our Pacific
commerce, although the present advant-
ages of annexation may preponderate
largely in favor Of the Islands Their
government has been constantly snub-
bed and Inundated by the petty agents
of every foreign government whose hui
NOR it was to be insulting. The Herald
eongratulates the people Of that country
on the new dignity that awaits them.

A ISLANDER NAILED.-The attention
of our readers is referred 10 the Card Of
DR.. j. B. Smith, to be found in another
column. Some person not having nee
essary regard for truth circulated the re-
port that the Doctor would oppose one
Of the democratic nominees of this
county. The Doctors card nails the
sander to the counter as base coin.-
We had heard the report, and having
known the DR.. since the 'young idea
first began to Shoot to be sound and
reliable democrat, should have repelled
the calumny, had not the opportune ar
rival Of his card rendered it unnecessary
While We freely accord to every person
the right to use his own judgment in the
exercise of the elective franchise, We
object to their resorting to misrepresen
tation and falsehood for the purpose of
carrying out their own misguided views,
and would caution the voters of the
county against being deceived from their
allegiance by such reports
Butte record., 1854-07-22

aS~ The attention of our readers is
directed to the communication from
Plumas in another portion our paper
Mr.. Kinney, the Plumas nominee for
member of Assembly, was for several
years in the legislature of Wisconsin,
instead of Iowa, as we had heretofore
stated, having represented the county of
Milwaukee both in the Senate and As
sembly of that State. 1t speaks vol
umes in favor of the mountain counties
when men Of known and tried ability
like Mr.. Kinney, are selected to repre-
sent them. and we are gratifed to learn
that plumas will be found all ''right in
the coming contest"

10 The new tariff bill introduced by
the committee Of ways and means, was
not framed with a view to the reduction
of the present revenue, but merely pro-
poses to change rates upon certain art-
cles without materially altering results.

CAPTAIN RYNDERs.-The Baltimore
Sun states that the celebrated Captain
Rynders, so well known as President of
the Empire Club' in New York, was
married in Baltimore to very beautiful
and rich young lady, who had accompa-
MED the gallant Captain from New York
with much secresy. The name of tho
BRIDE was Miss Phoebe Shortwell.

THg WIG TlcKEr.-We have pub


Tng WIG TIcKEF-We have pub
lished the whig ticket for this county
since their nominating convention gave
it birth. and had expected to see some
whig champion furnish something in its
favor. The voters of the county ought
to be informed of what the wings expect
to do providing they are elected, and
in what manner they will go to work to
advance tAe interests of their constitu-
ents, and oi the State. 1t should be
also be stated during the progress OF the
canvass whether one Of their nominees
would represent Butte county or San
Francisco, providing Butte county elects
him TO the Legislature. We are aware
that enc at least Of the Wing candi-
dates, is cndeavoring to gain democratic
support by Offering to vote for a northern
democrat for L. 5. Senator. We doubt
much whether this will prove q success
ful hobby. But does ii not furnish a
melancholy commentary upon whiggcry:
Here's a man proud to own that he be-
longs to the glorious whig party, and
(since he has subscribed for the Sacra-
mcnto Union for three months) talks
learnedIy of ''locoloc.sm," "democratic
corruption," Sc, and yet Acknowledges
the utter worthlessness of whiggery, by
offering, if elected, to support a ''locc-
focon Tor U. S. Senator. Whiggery
must be in reduced circumstances, when
it descends to such course. II there
is anything in whiggery, to induce a man
to adopt it as his political faith, it
strikes US that it should not be abandon
ed ON the eve of an election. IF why
doctrine is correct, why leave it embrace
the creed of your opponenfs3 The De-
mocracy play no such games The doe
times they profess, are submitted to the
people for their approval. Were there
but two democrats in the comfy and
they candidates for the Assembly. they
would scorn to stoop to such u course in
order to secure their election If the
voters of Butte county desire the cleo
ton Of democratic I. s. Senator, they
will treat such promises from aspiring
wings with such considerations as they
deserve. Il is an acknowledgment that
there is nothing in whiggery but desire
for Office
VIII not some ambitious whig furnish
something in support Of their ticket
The voters of the county ought to be
informed of the policy they intend to
pursue so far as regards the State. Are
they in favor of the Extension of the
water front of San Francisco or, are
they running altogether on the benevo-
lent-W aldonian system? Are they in
favor of biennial sessions of the legisla-
ture' Do they favor the reforms
recommended by Gov. Bigler in his last
annual message' Who will come for
ward and define their position At
present they appear before the people
denouncing 'slocofocos" and pledging
themselves 10 vote for "locofoco" for
L s. Senator. Willno one come for
ward and furnish them Il more consist
