the people of this County. He too, has
passed through the ordeal of long res
idence amidst the temptations with which
life in California has been surrounded,
and has come out with a character
free from reproach, above the assaults
of calumny.
But want of space forbids us dwelling
on the merits of those who have not vet
been noticed. V. G. Bell, Of Rough &
Ready, Mr.. Day, our present County
Surveyor, and DR.. Tompkins. of Grass
Valley, are all gentlemen of high char
acter, who are well known, and appre-
ciated in the community. AS to Mr.
Hosmers qualifications for the Office of
Coroner, we presume we need not speak
of them. He has already occupied a
high position in the State, and as mem
Der of the Legislature from the County
OF San Francisco, 1.-TWO years ago) he ac-
quilted himself with mnch credit and
success. He is man whom any party
might be proud to support.
Taking our ticket as whole, we
think it scarcely possible that our oppo-
ncnts can produce its equal; we think it
morally certain that they aciH not
We ask the people to examine closely
and thoroughly into the character and
qualifications of each one of our our can
didates, for we are confident they will
bear the most rigid scrutiny
u Both the Editors Of this paper on,
or about the 31st day of August, A. D.
1856, suddenly took into their heads to
let the paper go to the 'devii" without
their assistance, and hurriedly decamp-
ed for parts unknown" Whether they
have gone to wallow in the ''6lthy pool"
of politics at Sacramento, or whether
matters of delicate personal nature here
have produced this sudden exit, it is I'M
possible for us to determine. Some de-
velopments have certainly been made
since their departure which have caused
considerable uneasiness among many of
their trusting friends. 1t is undoubtedly
true, that they have left manT outstand-
ing bills Observation-Disclosures Lave
been made about "leaving the State, ;"
'intent to defraud creditors" &c.-and
lawyers have been consulted in relation
to the doctrine Of arrests in civil actions
and as to what constitutes the crime of
swindling. Their families are in the
most distressed condition-not willing to
believe the rumors ahoat III the commu-
nifty, and yet unable to satisfy themselves
of their falsehood. rs to the creditors
of the missing gentlemen, they may re-
lieve themselves Of all uncasiness for W e
can confidently assure them that if they
will go to the Devil they will get their
dues.
We would be much obliged to our
friends below, if they would stop the
gentlemen, and either persuade them TO
come back or, place them in safe keep
ing, Ii. e. the Vigilant Committed until
we can send down. If matters are 10
worse here than we now suspect, the
whole thing can be arranged"
As some of our friends may not be ac-
quainted with the "fugitives," we will
add a word of description. The one is
a thick, heavy set, "wolish" looking
hombre with heavy whiskers about the
color of yellow paint, and a tremendous
hole between the nose and chin He
is powerful from the shoulder" and if
he makes any resistance, you had bet
ter be very cautious. 1t would be hard
for him to disguise himself, unless he
does it with a clean shirt
The other is clean -Iimbed, slick look
ing individual, with cheap" of back
bone and rather purity" In appear
ance he is an excellent embodiment of
the idea generally entertained of a nice
young man." Owing to his good looks,
if he takes to any disguise, he will prob
ably adopt petticoats, in which costume
he might easily pass for strong minded
woman.
Vi hope all will yet end well, and
that our Editors will be returned to us.
In any event, our patrons shall be
served. If the worst comes to the worst,
the Devil will take all the RESPONSE
bilities they have left behind them,
and continue to manage the concern
