organization has been COMPLETED, and
the State will be canvsssed hy Demo-
cratic speakers in every mounssin gulch,
ravnc and camp, from Siskiyon To San
Diego. The last news received from the
East will act like magic upon the Dem
ecracy Of THE State. From every source
DO we learn that the Democratic party
has swept oil before it. We believe that
a 'arge majority OF Mr.. fillmore's Adhe
ron.e will support Mr.. Buchanan, in the

of 90 election.
Thu Black Republicans are !ismnyei.
They already feel and see that Califor-
via 10 secured 70 Buchanan, aud that
their attempt. % SOW the seeds Of cor
rup,ion, Aboitionism, political .rickery,
aud, worse than ell, the black flag OF dis
union, in he e. Dorado OF the Pacific,
