"kIlIInOre's Chnnccs.v

Tue most absurd statement Of the absurd
organs supporting Mr.. Fillmore in this
State, is their assertion that Mr. Fillmore
has prospect of being elected President of
the United States on the 4th Of November
next. The idea that men can become so in
sane as to believe the assertions they pub
lish in opposition to facts which stare them
IA the face, is not to be entertained. The
only legitimate conclusion is that they are
endeavorng to deceive the people of Cali
fornia into the foolish act Of throwing away
their votes upon Mr. Fillmore, in order that
Foote & Co. may be gorifcd, and the great
TX Governor and Union saver, and political
charltan and weather yane, be returned
TO the Senate Of the United States, even if
| they have indirectly TO assist in the election
Fremont, by casting their votes for can
didate who has no earthly show Of success.
They arc not sufficiently idiOtic to believe
what they publish when they proclaim that
Fillmore is foremost in the racew Their
brains are not softcned sufficiently for them
to credit their own assertions. But they
have started into their present party organ
ization under oath, and having sworn that
the animal is of certain hight, they are
going to stick to it. When Kentucky went
Democratic, these vain glorious boasters
knew that Fillmore could not carry single
State in the Uuicn They knew months ago
that Buck and Breck' were the national
men who would sweep the South with a
unanimous vote. They knew months ago,
that in the Northern States where there
were three electoral tickets in the field, that
a plurality Q. votes would be cast for Buck
aud Breck. They feel aud know this, as
every intelligent man must, and yet the
poor miserable devils have sworn to pursue
u course which the little common sense and
reason they have left, teaches them as false,
wicked, unpatriotc and abominable.

The Meeting Last Night.

The impromptu gathering Of the Democ-
racy last night, was one Of those gather
ings that have carried terror to the hearts
Of our opponents, made the ki-lies shake
in their shoes, weaken in their efforts, give
mp the contest, and seek consolation in the
midnight reccsses of their wigwnms
The meeting was addressed by Hon Jos
C McKIBBEN, in an able, argumentatlve,
and logical manner for upwards Of an hour.
His stalwdrt blows fell thick and fast upon
the Know Nothing carcass and the Repub-
lican organization. lie introduced some in
teresting statistics concerning the course OF
Mr.. Fillmore while in Congress, and proved
him a free -soiler by the evidence of hs as-
sociate Andrew j. 1nnelson. This made
some Of Foote'S Fillmore men sQuirm IN an
awful manner, but the facts were driven
home 10y the record, and fastened upon
them.
Mr.. McKibbcn was followed ty Judge
Haun of Yuba, in speech rep etc with log
ical argument, AMI in an eloquent and fer
vid manner. lie referred to Mr. Clay's po.
sition with regard to the Missouri compro-
mise; and the Missouri eompl omise Of 1880,
and showed that the patriot and Statesman
of Ashland had supported the former as a
IN alter Of policy, and the lastcr as Il declar-
alton Of principe.
Gen Harris, being loudly called for.
a.cended the stand, and made an earnest,
eloquent and effective speech. The only
danger to be apprchended to the Union was
from sectionalism-by arraying one portion
of the Union against another. The section
al party now in the field, was led on by a
military chieftain who was never under fire.
n statesman, whose only act of legislation
was the introduction of n bill to appoint
twenty thousand ofiice-holders to collect a

permitting them to work the mines

SERIOUS ACCIDENT Michael Ash, one
OF the hands employed on the Montezuma
claim met with very serious accident on
Sunday. He was engaged in arranging the
machinery after the water had been let into
the fume, and becoming entanglod in some
of the bands or wheels, he was horribly
mangled. We have not learned whether
any bones we're broken or not, but We hear
that he received very serious injury.
Mr. Ash is one of the oldest miners in the
county, and we are but expressing the fee
lings of his numerous friends, in rendering
our sympathy, and hoping that nothing Sc.
rious will result from his misfortunes.

lug exiled, but the proof that such is the

oi numbering n man deliberately, for mere
ly dsputing their right to dictate 10 him in

EVANSVILLE AND New ALBANY.--The New
Albany Ledger, commenting upon our article
in relation to the designs of the New AL
banians to avail themselves of the coal, iron
and timber in our rear, through the medium
of the Ohio and Mississippi railroad, to build
up their manufactures, and Of the probability
that we shall one day see these elements Of
wealth carried to New Albany and their pro-
ducts afterwards brought past our own wharves
to the South, says to us: ''you will live to see
''that day unless you are very short lived
"Whilc your people are specializing off of each
"other in buying and selling outlets, ours will
ego to work and establish manufacturers
The reproach is worthy of some reflection
The most unproductive business to the com
munity is speculation in nnimproved real
estate; it adds nothing to the real wealth of a
place, and there is no value SO unreal as the
prices we frequently give to unoccupied city
property. Rents and the cost of real estate
are charges upon productive industry--thc
creator Of all wealth-and it is a draw back
upon the prosperity Of town to force the
price of property up by speculation. Cheap
rents and cheap lots are among the strongest
attractions of industry and enterprise to a
point To promote the real growth and adj
vantage of a town, it would be for the com
mon interest to keep rents and lots as low as
possible. Beside the capital invested in spec
ulations in unoccupied lots is unproductive
and useless to the community. IF one hall
the amount invested in vacant and unused
lots about Chicago had been expended in the
erection of workshops ana factories that city
would have had a larger population better
employed--more actual wealth, and far
sounder basis of future growth and prosper
ity, and her vacant lots. would. now have a
greater actual value.

from Fremont Friend up Salt river. AS
many of our readers have acQuaintances in
that locality, we suhjon a few extracts of men
and manners up that tabled stFeam
The defeated are arriving daily; Fremont
and Fillmore came in to-day saw them
meet-Fremont had Grape on his left arm, on
his hat, and in his button hole, and a weeping
willow bough in his hand; piece of the dead
dog and mule was carried on a server before
him; Jessie came behind with wooden shoes,
and wooden nutmeg in her mouth; the baby
had a Goldfish hanging down its back, en-
blematic Of New England pair of stays
drew the family on a stone dray, on which
was placed the Republican platform.
His description Of the meeting of the defeat
cd candidates, runs as follows:
They passed compliments, wished each 9th
Ter well, hoped they would have pleasant
time; limited that each was indebted to the
other for the circumstances that brought
them "here;" and agreed to be friendly until
they could get dab at the common enemy
Fremont is pounding rock and Fillmore teach
| ing school; both doing well.

Cs7- The New York Journal of Commerce
says the business of fitting out slave vessels
in that port was never more active. 1t
is seldom that one or more vessels cannot be
pointed out at the wharves which are well
known to be preparing for run to the coast
of Africa for cargo Of slaves to be landed in
Cuba; but the matter is so managed by the
parties concerned thatsit is extremely difficult
to obtain evidence to condemn them. There
have been but three prosecutions in the last
year, and only one conviction. This is so
smallaper cent loss, that the risk of detection
does not operate to restrain the enterprises
The principals in the business are rich for
eigners, residents in Cuba and the West In
dies. They write to respectable Commits
sion Houses to charter the right sort of YES
sci, with conditional right to purchase her.
She is fitted out at New York, runs over to
the coast of Africa and if she can procure a
cargo of slaves, she is bought and paid for al a
round price; she is then loaded, runs over to
Cuba, lands her slaves in a secluded bay, and
the vessel is burnt and sunk. One trip is
enough to secure princely fortune. The YES
sci during the voyage is under American col
ors that protect her from the right search.
except by United States public ships, which
are so few in number she easily escapes them.
If from any cause the vessel cannot procure
slaves she returns home under her charter
