Democratic Meeting.

Ihe Democracy had little impromptu
gathering on Saturday night, to listen to
Democratic speech from Judge Sherwood,
of San Francisco. formerly of this County
The Judge spoke for about one hour in an
able, argumentative and enthusiastic man.
ner. lie pitched into the Sectional Black
Republican party, and literally hayed them
alive in thirty minutes, by the watch. He
showed the principles embraced in the Kan
zas Nebraska bill, to be the fundamental
principles of republican government. In
demanding its repeal, the Black Republican
party, denied the right Of one portion of the
Union to have a voice in the government Of
the territories, which were the common
property Of the whole Union, and assumed
the right TO govern the country according
to their own peculiar notions.
The Judge brought down the House when
he referred to the Know Nothing party,
whose doctrines. althogh but recently pro-
mulgated, have become 50 odious and often
sive as to compel them to enter the present
canvass under the less obnoxious name Of
"Fillmore men, They dare not appear
before the people Of California, and ask for
proscrptive doctrincs-their anti Catholic
test-their illiAeral naturalization laws -
and butchery of foreign born citizens! BY
changing their name to Fillmore Men,"
they hope to be enabled to secure tae vote of
the foreign born citizen, and thus iaduce
him to vote against his own interests and
himself They will not succeed in this de-
ception. They have nominated none but
members of the Know Nothing order, from
the Presidency down to Constable, and hope
to fasten their odious doctrines upon the
country by changing their narle to "Fil-
more men"
In referring to .he railroad question: upon
which the Republicans claim to be par ex
celence, the party, he demonstrated their
inability to buj II the TO ad, in the event of
their success When they talked about the
Democracy being opposed to a Pacific Rail
road, they were making statements which
the facts and the Records will not warrant.
There never was a railroad bill introduced
into either branch of Congress which did
not originate wi h the Democracy. He
called upon the opposition of every and aay
hue 10 name man outside of the democratic
party who had introduced such measure
1t could not be done. The records showed
that every measure Of the kind had origina-
ted with the Democracy.
The meeting was not very large one, as
the announcement was not made until about
five o'clock, p. NJ. The other parties had
held meetings here lately, and had the de-
mocracy congregated their forces in any
considerabl numbers, it would have dis
hearteued and overwhelmed the opposition
Fillmore is now held in the cnnyass but by
"A single thread, and one demonstration such
as lhe Democracy of Oroville are capable Of
making, might drive him from the canvass.

PLASTER, NO REMEDY FOR SoRREL. -
wv. s. b." in former number, speak
ing of sorrel, says:-"We used tons OF
gypsum, without any effect in exterm-
mating the evil" Very true; he might
as well use cords of dry wood to put out
fire. Sorrel, sour dock, sour grass,
and all of that family, are the result, or
product, of sour soil. On soils that
produce sorrel, plaster is an injury, as
the sulphuric acid in the plaster is add
ing more sourness where too much already
exists. On such land use air-slacked
lime to neutralize the acid in the soil
and | will defy sorrel to grow. 1t must
die out for want ofacid and white clover
will then come in-as sorrel and white
clover require soil whose component
parts are alike, except that sorrel requires
the addition of acid.-L. V. BGERcE,

How TO PRODUCE LARGE FRUIT. A
correspondent of the Gardeners Gazette
says that by very simple and easy pro-
cess, fruits of all kind may be raised
about one-third larger than is usually
the case, and of greatly improved quail
ity. The secret consists in supporting
the fruit so that they shall not be allowed
TO hang their whole weight upon the
stalk, or twist about in the wind. The
Gazette says that when the fruit is
allowed to hang naturally upon the stalk,
the increasing weight strains the stem or
twlg, and thus lessons the quantity of
nutritious food flowing to the fruit
The fruit may be supported either by
tying it to "A branch with a piece of mat
ting, or by enclosing it in a small net
Flowers, such as dahlias or peonies, may
also be rendered much larger by the
adoption of this system.

COLUMBIAN GUANO,

The subscribers are now prepared 10 furnish
Farmers with the above named article in any
quantities they may require. The Columbian
is a new article, Of recent discovery and impor-
tation, and seems to be just the thing our Farm
ers have long wanted.
From the analysis of DR.. w. L. REESE. State
Inspector, hereunto annexed, il is found TO con-
tain largely more Of Bone Phosphate Of Lime.
than any other Guano ever discovered. Almost
every Farmer is convinced that in order 10 cet
his land in permanent productive order, phos-
pilates are absolutely necessary. There can be
no permanency without it.
As it seems to be impossible to supply the de
mand for Bone Dust Farmers need not. in our
Judgment have the least hesitation in using the
Columbian as a substitute for Bone, as il con-
tains nearly double as much phosphoric acid as
the bone, and much cheaper in price taking the
phosphoric acid as a basis. We ask very
careful examination ofthe analysis of DR.. Reese:
