EDITOR TINES Dear Sir AS the ice
is at last broken and we find we are not en-
tirely excommunicated by the press we feel

that the Trinity Times is quite liberal in
its favors-that it is willing to take the
little fish with the big ones
Our mining operations assume different
and more energetic appearance than when
last wrote. The river, of a night, has the
appearance Of well lighted street in some
large city. They are working two sets of
handsome in the day aud one ut night
which proves they are doing well for if a
miner is making S25 per day he will work
as hard again as when he is only making 81
or S5.
All other branches of business arc moving
along in the even tenor of their ways, aud
the Church is two stories high and will be
completed in few weeks. There is a great
deal Of inquiry what the upper story is for

will venture to say there is less dissipation
here, Of any kind, than in any portion OF
California, in proportion to the number OF
Inhabitants. We are beginning to do away
with the use of ardent spirits, and intend to
taper oil on lager beer, as we now have a
brewery in full blast
A phenomenon, which will mark an epoch
in the history of this bar, happened few
nights since. We had baby, the first ever
born on this bar-and Dutch baby at that.
So you see we will need a surplus of crout

natcs have been the ruin and destruction
of the two great political parties and let
us beware and be watchful--ever on the
alert. and ever willing to sacrifice our own
diminutive personal interests for the gene
raj good of our common country.
Brothers, it is not my intention to discuss
any political question, or to travel over the
scenes of past generations, as zee are but a
small hand, yet trust true one-a band
of brothers that have chosen the same po-
litical creed and faith, by which we are viii
ling to be governed, and which creed we
believe to be conducive to the general good
of the whole people. And under these cir
cumstances, and according to your desires
and requests, / now present to you this .fag
an emblem of Liberty and Of Faith. Take
it, brothers. and keep it as holy gift-as
mement0 of the thirteen States that
bcqueathcd to us the liberties we now enjoy,
and which they won from tyrant King,
keep it as an hallowed gift from Heaven for
the god of battles, the king of kings, and
the ruler above all others, gave us the
country. We are now proud to own, and
always remember, that our institutions
were built upon the ashes Of the noble
dead.
Brothers, take this little flag and place ii
in your Council Chamber, and when dis
sension arises make it your reference-look
upon it with love and respect, and it will
awaken hallOwcd memories of the past and
originate inventions for the future And
should it ever recall to your minds the old
Man that presents it to you, think of his
admontions, be good, be great, be wise, be
moral, be virtucns, and | will answer for
the safety Of our beloved country as far as
this little band of brothers are concerned.
Brothers, thank you most heartily for
all your kindness and respect toward me,
and assure you that you possess a place
within my heart, and upon my memory, that
will only fade in the arms Of death,

PoLTICAL SPEAKING.--On Wednesday
evening last our town was cnlivencd by n
public discussion among the various candi.
dates, and others interested in the result OF
the ensuing election.
The gathering was large one for SO
short notice, showing the fact that the
people are watching with interest and anxi-
ETY. every move made on the political chess
board. That our people love public speak
ing is evidenced by their willingness to
turn out at all times aud upon all occasions.
They are eager to become acquainted with
the principles and policies of both the great
political parties, and then judge of their
merits themselves. This spirit of inquiry
has been quickcncd by the organization of
the American party, whose success, from
will be triumphant ON We'd
nesday next.
If the power emanating from its success
shall not be misusod, we can conscientiously
look for a reasonable reform in every de
partment of our Government, but as the
WiSest cannot foretell the future, let Us hope
for the best.

Judgcs of Elcciion-Their Powers and

OUIttb.
We have been repeatedly asked our opin
ion in relation to the powers conferred or
Judges of Election to receive or reject
votes. The following article, which We
find in the State Tribune, fully expresses
our views on this subject:
BY examining the law, the Judges OF
Election will tind that it is made their dutv
to satisfy the;nselves by any and all aues-
tlOns they may see proper, Of the qualitca-
tion of the person applying to vote, whose
vote has been challenged; and it is even
made their duty to challenge the vote of
any one they may suspect not duly quail
fed. .4fter the administration Of the oath.
it is true, they are not permitted to examine
witnesses touching his want of qualifca.
ton, but previous to that time they can put
any questions they may see proper, which
are pertinent. The Judges are not neces-
sarily compelled to administer the oath it
is left entirely IN their discretion to do so
or not If by questions aud witnesses, with
out administering the oath, the Judges are
satisfied that the applicant is not qualified,
il is their duty to reject his vote without
commissioning hAN Obius " udl tN NlUtIEt Is
the oath OF an interested party? just none
at all. 1t has become the practice at the
polls when parties are challenged, for them
to demand the administration of the oath.
as if they had Alright to il. They have no
right to make such demand, and the Judges
by administering it forecloe themselves
from rejecting the vote. The proper course
for the Judges, is, when mans vote is
challenged, toquestion him a, they may see
proper, and examine witnesses. if there are
any, touching bis qualification if from the
evidence they believe him not qualified, his
vote should be rejected; 4 the evidence
preponderates in his favor, then as the last
resort they should administer the oath
This is the plain and evident meaning of
the law. Nor does the decision of the Su-
preme Court IN the lease of Gordon" con-
llct with ths view.
