Buchanan and Clay.

Perhaps the revolutions of politics
present no spectacle so strange as that
II old line wings, who always deifed
Harry Clay, and loathed Buchanan for
bis SANDER of their idol, now that the
sage of Ashland is under the sod, falling
into the ranks of those who seek to ele-
vate Buchanan to the Presidency. Such
men, and we must believe them few,
have either forgotten the history of the
country, or are blinded to the enormity
Of giving to cold, calculating defamer,
the wages of shame.
This question, which belongs to past
age, is important as sh owing the char
acter of the democratic aspirant to the
Presidency. The democratic party may
forgive Buchanan for his Federalism,
politicians for his being on every side of
avery question during his political life,
working men for his declaration that ten
cents a day was enough for them, but
id line wings should never forget the
-niscreant spirit that led him to defame
one of the purest statesman that ever
wrote his name upon the American an
nails.
The election of Mr.. Adams to the
Presidency was a severe disappointment
10 the friends of jackson. The position
Of Mr.. Clay in the contrast was one of
great delicacy and difficulty. What
ever course he might pursue he was open
TO misrepresentation and censure. Orig
inally one of the four candidates for the
Presidency, he failed by FIVE electoral
votes to be one of the three candidates
returned to the House ofRepresentatives
Of which he was then Speaker. Upon
his action depended the election, and
that action was necessarily confined to
Adams and Jackson, as Mr.. Crawford's
ill-health left him out of the question:
Mr.. Clay, as his letters long before had
declared, deemed it his duty in this
emergency, to decide for Mr.. Adams-a
scholar of the ripest abilities-a states
man, diplomatist, patriot of unques-
toned talents and of long experience
one who had beeu intrusted with most
important public interests by Washing
ton, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, and
also hal received from these illustrious
men every mark of confdence-whose
familiarity with the internal condition
and foreign relations Of the Union were
unequalled by any public man. Mr..
Clay had long before expressed his szut

FILLMORE MEETING. An immens,

FILLMORE MEETING. An immense
and enthusiastic Fillmore meeting was
held on Wednesday evening at San
Juan. We have an able letter from a
correspondent, which we must defer till
next week, as our paper was in type
when the welcome communication came
to hand. Over one thousand persons by
actual count participated in the meeting.
Enthusiasm of kind unexamplcd pre-
vailed. The meeting was addressed by
Gov. Foote, A. B. Dibble, A. A. Sargent
and L. B. Mcfarland. Cheer after
cheer rent the air, and so great was the
enthusiasm following the address of
Gov. Foote, that the crowd caught him
in their arms as he left the stand, and
carried him bodily into the house. The
local democracy yield San Juan to MI.
Fillmore. Delegations were in attend
ance from French Corral, Cherokce
Sebastopol, Camptonville and along the
Middle Yuba.

SPEECH OF Col. BAKER.-The efforts
of this gentleman on Saturday evening,
fully sustained his reputation as one of
the first orators of the State. Perhaps
the speech was not so eloquent and de-
livered with that force and fire which
have sometimes chara previous
efforts of the Colonel, but the occasion
was not one ON which he could do him
self justice. He had large audience
it is true, but his theme is a deadeaer to
his energies. However his speech was
a good one for its purpose. 1t is doubt
full if there is another man III California
who could do as well in the same cause
as Col. Baker. Some of the positions
assumed by him on Saturday night were
liberal enough to suit the most ultra
southerners. If it was Republicanism
he preached, it is not so bad doctrine
for slave advocates to swallow as has
been imagined. If it was genuine Re-
pnblicanism, the real article has been
most wofully belied. Genuine or not,
we rather opine if a niger should be set
upon the apex of Bunker Hill monu-
ment in lieu of a statue of the goddess
of liberty, northern men, Republicans,
especially, would not sing peans to the
Union.

LocoFoCo GATHERING.-By dint of
firing of cannon, ringing of bells, and
numerous posters stuck here and there
and every where, an audience number
ing full two hundred and fifty souls,
collected in front of the " American
Exchange, on Wednesday evening, to
see and hear Washington, Van VOORHEES,
and Long. The occasion was more
fortunate one to the town than the for
mer visit of Washington, on the 10TH of
July. The scintillations of his genius,
didn't destroy million of property this
time. In fact there was no damage DONE
Van spread himself-thin, over vast
space-till late in the night. Some ma
licious cuss reports that Long, fearing
the long winded efforts of Washington
and Van would disperse the crowd, went
around informing the audience that
Long, one of the finest speakers in the
State would yet address them, and
urged that he be called. The malicious
individual referred to, brings several
others Just like him to corroborate his
report, but nobody will believe it.

WHAT WE THINK IN THE Noun
TAINs.-We think the late Democratic
State Convention has stolen our old
Whig thunder, viz: Conservatism--ride
Chas. L. SCOTS speech, reported in the
State Journal of the 11th instant
We think the attempt to laud the old
Wing party by such spooneys as Jos.
McKibben and Chas. l.. Scott, is we'll
appreciated by those old line Wings
who have ever remained true to their
first teachings.
We think the opinions of the Demo
cratic party in relation to the old line
Wings have materially altered since
1874.
Wing principles as defined by Demo-
crcts in 1S44-Unnationa in its princi-
pies; unnational in its proclivities; un-
national in its energies; a rotten, bro
ken bank party.
Whig party principles as defined by
Democrats in 1S56-National in its prin-
ciples national in its proclivities ma
tional in its energies; an old, gallant
party.
We think, with Chas. L. Scott, that
the star of Democracy California De
mocracy) will continue to revolve
"around the steady pole of Virtue and
Truth" and at such a distance from
that same pole that even its noon-day
shadow could never reach that stars
most prominent point.
We think of those old line Wings who
have deserted their party for the Buck
and Breck crowd, as we have alway.
thought of that individual we rea6
about in the New Testament, "a book
by the way, with which the Democratic
party are entirely unacquainted) wht
sold his Lord and Master for thirty
pieces of silver.
We think, finally, that Millard Fill
more is an old line Wing, Henry Clay
and Daniel Webster Wing, Whie
whom we have tried weighed him BY
the old Whig balances, and never founc
him wanting. The result is
We think him the most deserving, thu
most capable, the most conservative
and the best Union man of all the can
didates for the Presidency. Therefore

A. b. DlBBLE.-A man may be known
by the estimation in which he is held bv
his neighbors. The G.. 7. Telegraph,
a paper opposed to Mr.. Dibble in poll
tics, but published in the town where
our candidate for Congress resides, thus
speaks of him in the issue of last week :
with regard to Mr.. Dibble we speak
from personal knowledge when We say
he is gentleman of acknowledged tai
ent, superior speaker, most excellent
man and good neighbor. 1t is well
known that our political sympathies are
not with the party which has placed him
before the people but if any man of the
the two parties in opposition to our views
is to be elected, it is our earnest hope
that Mr.. Dibhle may be the successful
one"
Again, in the Telegraph of this wee X
occurs the following language, speakin g
of the American mass meeting at Grass
Valley on Monday night
''After Gov. Foote had concluded,
our townsman, A. B. Dibble, candidate
for Congress, took the stand, and made
a very neat and appropriate speech,
defining his position, and manifesting a
very laudable interest in the result Of
the canvas. When Mr.. ID. fairly gets
the harness on we predict he will prove
one of the best men on the stump in the
State"

EDITOR JOURNAL: 1t is amusing, as
well as instructive, to read the excuses
of hitherto Wing editors, in paliation of
their desertion to the Democratic ranks,
and their refusal to vote for Mr.. Fill
more. The great and grand reason they
assign is, not that he is incapable or dis
honest, but they do not think there is
the least possibility of his election. A
pretty excuse "for white man," Ito
quote Southern parlance.) Now, l
know of many Democrats who said they
had not the remotest idea that James
X. Polk would be elected, and yet they
voted for him. But now our soft head
Wigs say ''its of no use-Fillmore can
not be elected, and therefore we will
vote for Buchanan"
Buchanan man who has always
been opposed to, and the most bitter
enemy of, Whig principles and Whig
measures; man who has failed, to the
present time, when he has had every
opportunity of doing so, to do justice to
one of the purest statesmen that ever
lived-that distinguished man, that ex-
alted patriot, that lover of his country,
Henry Clay. Can any old line Wing,
any true Wing, vote for James Bu-
chanan!
The Democratic party of 1856 talk
of union, preach union, proclaim union,
in all their conventions, but It's no go
with us old line Wings up here in the
mountains. We very well know that
Onion is not found in tie Democratic
vocabulary. For instance, let that por-
ton of the Sacramento delegation to the
late Democratic State Convention, (not
those who shuttle the cards for living)
recall the time when South Carolina sent
forth her threats of defiance and dis
union. | ask if there has been one
State in the whole Confederacy which
has uttered disunion sentiments, OF even
gone farther than that, petiti0ned for
dissolution of the Union, but State in
which the Democratic power has been
predominant ? Oh, Democracy as rep
resented in 1856, "thou art a jewell"
The Democratic party say, the con-
test is between Buchanan and Fremont.
| do not think so. Withdraw Millard
Fillmore, and your next President will
be John G.. Fremont-for he can beat
Buchanan so bad that the latter will
think he has never been candidate,
Every well-v isher of his country
would deplore the election of Mr.. Ere
mont; therefore it becomes all old line
Wings, especially, to give their votes to
Millard Fillmore-a man that can come
up even to the Democratic tcst-he is
capable, he is honest, and he is strict
constructionist of the constitution He
is the man who conducted his admins
tration in such an able manner as to re-
ceive plaudits from that old Whig sage
and patriot, Henry Clay himself. Do
we wish any better endorserl No
And let not one American voter be Sc
duced from his allegiance to old Whig
principles by any representation he may
find in Sydney Democratic journal.
At the November election you may
expect to hear good news from Wool
sey,s Flat. The mountains are echoing
with the names of Fillmore and Donel-
son.
Ever yours, Pen STOCK.

10 The Democrat resorts to the usual
method of the brainless in answering
our truths on the Bargain and Sale
SANDER" 1t says: "In the last issue
(of the JournaD is another tissue of
verbiage on this subject, without fact
or an argument that could ever influence
the mind of an imbecile" The reason
our articles have not converted the
Democrat is here acknowledged.
But we want that sheet to understand
we write for men of sense, and do not
expect to have particle of influence
on those wanting that rare commodity
in the office of our neighbor.
The Democrat may term anything
meaningless, and swear the most stub
born facts nonsense, but men do not
combat argument in that way. They
will be quite apt to take the word of
Henry Clay, his writings, and Colton's
dictum against all the "Oh Judges" of
the Democrat. They will be quite apt
to read for themselves and Judge of the
facts that are presented. An array of
them may be found in to-day's paper,
which has been drawn from authentic
and standard works. Another "pshaw"
from the Democrat may be expected
next week.
