The Harvest.

Already have our farmers on the plains
west of US commenced harvesting. We learn
from one of them who visited our sanctum
yesterday that considerable of the wheat is
smutted and the crops will not be as plentiful
as expected 1t is a singular fact that the
wheat in this country most liable to smut was
originally brought from Oregon, Australia or
the Atlantic States, while the native grain is
entirely free from it. At least such is the OBJ
servation of our husbandmen.

GONE lN.-The whig party from present in
dications in this State seems to be among the
things that were. In San Francisco. previous
to the charter election. the Central Committee
were convened but not quorum obtained,
and the consequence was the Wings were
unable to form ticket. Truly has it been
said with the death of Clay and Webster died
the Whig party And we now find majority
of that organization enrolled under the BAN
ner of -Nothingism. But notwithstand
ing all this. we find the Democratic party
successful in the strong hold Of Know Nothing
ism in this State. If they can be arrested in
San Francisco, where they number their thou
sands, how much surer is it to be done in the
ides Of September next by the Democracy of
the State. The mountains and gulches are
filed with those who are the life of the State
working men-who are more deeply interest
ed than all others in the predominancy of
liberal principles. The necessity of the times
will call them forth to vote and sustain the
principles which they know are the support of
our government. We have no fears for the
result-San Francisco has done well-the
State will do better.

San Francisco Charter Election.

The Charter election on Monday last was
warmly contested one between the democra-

we notice that nearly one thousand more votes
were polled than at the charter election year
ago. The wings did not form ticket at all
their party seems to have gone over to the
know w-noth;ngs body and SOUL The result of
this election shows what the democratic party
can do when fully aroused to the work 1t is
a harbinger of the result in the coming cam

The Whig Party and its Organ.

Our neighbor of the "Whig" in his last is

earnestly for their party last year. Some Of
them get the following crumb of comfort
| The editor says
.'If there be any who have thus far lent us
their support sol2ly upon the ground of party
preference. and not for any intrinsic merit OF
our own, we give such persons notice that
their fealty is no longer due; we shall pub
lish Wing paper no more IRON and after

The DIGGINGs ON THE PLANS We learn
mining on the plains two miles below Coxs
Ranch. is averaging in digging gold from ten
to fifteen dollars per day. and has been doing
SO for the last month. The gold taken out by
him is rather coarse, some pieces weighing as
much as three dollars. There are other par

wages. The Gold Hill and Bear River Com
pany have recently introduced water into this
vicinity.
DAILY MAH.-The Deputy Post Master. Mr..

The BRICK Row-On Monday last, David
son & Mares, Eberly, Cove & Co.. and J. Van
Mater commenced clearing the ground for the
erection of a row of fire-proof buildings on
the site of the frame houses standing opposite
Wells, Fargo & Cos office. Although, with
many other citizens, we would have been
pleased to see the lots vacated for public
square. yet we cannot help express our plea
sure at the erection of brick buildings. 1t
betokens enterprise and indicates a perma-
nency we are pleased to chronicle The foun-
dation walls are Of stone and built upon the
bed rock, and will be carried up two and
half feet above the present grade Of the street,
thus making fine cellars under the whole
block. The entire length of the block will be
over ninety feet, making three handsome store
rooms. The rooms will be twelve feet in
hight from floor to ceiling.
