n.- It will be remembered that just after the
pbijadelpbia Convention had nominated Fillmore
and Donelson, a ratification meeting was held IN
Washington City by the friends of these gentlemen
One of the great ratifying orators was Lewis D.
CampbelI, of Ohio. A big Know Nothing was MI
Campbell then, and we can hardly pretend to say
how many Southern brethren assisted Mr. Campbell
or were assisted by him on that occasion he was
bound 10 90 for FiIlmore-he was. Well, on Mon
day evening last the Black Republicans held meet
ing. or caucus, in Washington City. And there too,
was Mr. Campbell, side by side with Mr. Seward.
He would vote for no man who advocated the Kan
sas bill, which he denounced as iniquity and an
outrage He advocated union of all the elements
and opponents of the administration, like that which
80 goriousy triumphed in Ohio last Autumn and
nonted to that State as noble monument Of free
dom.
VIM Fl. Seward made the closing speech. He
counselled the forcing through the House of bill
for the Immediate admission of Kansas, with the an
ti-savery constitution gotten up by the Reeder law
breakers and traitors and, in the event OF It's failure
in the Senate then he went for the House stopping

An Ode to all Mankind.
BY J. C. YOUNG, NJ. d.

BY ]. G. YOUNG, M.
All ye who suffer, ponder whilst you read
As tits your case, alone not mine, plead
Ye who have felt, or feel them, know the pangs
Mans doomed to bear, when the remorseess fangs
Of dire disease is fasten'd in his soul -.
When he would seek the Dagger or the Bowl"
To end his misery by the potent spell
Of deadly poison, or the polished steel.
Yc who have wrthed and groan'd from night to morn,
Cursing the hour that ever ye were born!
Seeking your pillow thinking to find ease,
Hoping 'twould quench the flames that madly burn'd
In ev'ry vein, as if your blood were turn'd
To molten lava
To him who hath felt this,
need not speak, as he knows what it is.
But such as only feel the incipient spark,
Should read this Per, and ev'ry sentence mark!
Upon the tablets of their memory,
As none may tell how he'll tomorrow be.
But all should know, in dark afliction's hour,
Where to apply to one who has the power
To their pain, prompt, they'd think my hand
Must surely grasp Necromancer's wand,
Like some good Genii of the olden time,
Whose ev'ry act bespoke his power sublime.
Within this city-throughout all the State,
In ev'ry town and hamlet small or great,
Some can be found who know the power | WELD.
Having tried it--know it was to the n shield
Stronger than that which Achilles of yore,
Upon Scamander's banks, in battle bore.
They know it savd them from the blush of shame,
Preserved their health, and dearer far their name,
For who'd confess the pain that spoiled his rest
Sprang from source impure, to say the least.
Ye suffering thousands who may read this DER,
REMEMBER, ALONE can you restore
To health and usefulness.
That you may know
have the means and power for doing so,
here will state. Let each note what say.
My motto always is-NO CURE NO PAY.

Gently visited, we found the political parties active
and the campaign fairly opened The ardor with
which the people seem to enter the contest rather
took us by surprise In Tuoumne the contest prom
ises to be conducted with spirit and energy by each
party. Clubs have been formed in every mining
town of ncte, and in some more than one have been
organized. Columbia boasts three Democratic Clubs,
counting some three hundred members, the Fremont
Club, numbering seventy-seven, and the Fillmore
Club in which were enrolled about two hundred and
fifty members The Democrats also have an auxili
AIRY German Democratic Club, the original club being
in Sonora. j. w. Coffroth is President of the Fill
more Club in Columbia and Mr.. Vaudeville Presi-
dent of the main Buchanan Club. In Sonora clubs
have also been formed and preparations made to raise
Fillmore and Donelson flagstaff. At jamestown
clubs are also in being, and at Montezuma Fillmore
and Buchanan Clubs have been made up. AT this
point we witnessed an enthusiastic club meeting,
which was addressed very effectively by Mr. Coffroth
Mr. Z. possesses, to considerable degree the ele
ments of popular orator. At Montezuma the Fill
more boys have raised the finest Fillmore and Done-
son poll we have seen in the State. On the night of
the meeting the stars and stripes oated from its top
while flag with the names of "Fillmore, Donelson
and the Union," was unfurled few feet below our
national emblems. The Fillmore and Buchanan par
ties are each confident in their ability to carry the
county, but far as we could see, Fillmore seemed
to have the advantage. OF the Republicans we saw
and heard little, except in Columbia. In Calaveras
we did not hear Of so many clubs, but Fillmore and
Buchanan men are very active, and clubs were being
formed in the various towns in the county The
Democratic nominations for Senate and Assembly
had been made but they did not give entire satisfac-
ton. However, we suppose it will all come right
before the election. The Court House question may
operate to disarrange the calculations of candidates.

ton. The county will be strongly contested-Sac-

PLAIN FACTs.-What consummate folly to talk
about a railroad in connection with either Fillmore
or Buchanan! Neither Of those gentlemen nor their
supporters out of California, has by the remotest i'm
plicaton committed himself in favor of that measure
The above, which is from the Times, is rather a
strong statement to be made in the face OF the mes
sages Of Mr.. Fillmore. The fact is, that MIR. Fill
mores friends and supporters in Congress- as far
back as l849-50 voted generally to man for Pacil-
c Railroad bills, and so generally did the Western
Democrats. The old Wing party never needed any
pledges to define their position Oh this railroad ques-
ton, for they always voted for it north and south
and the Pacific Railroad element now in the Repub-
lican party is mainly derived from the old Wing
party.
But suppose Mr. Fremont should be elected, how
we to get railroad bill through the Senate as al,
present organized, unless it is voted for by some
of the Southern American Senators and Western
Democratic Senators? The complexion politically
of the Senate cannot be changed for several years,
and if the Republican party alone is to be depended
upon for the passage of railroad bill, we must wait
for it until that party obtains majority in the Sen
ate of the United States which will be when all the
Senators from Free States elected by that party
This cannot happen in the natural course of human
events for the next six years. 1t won't do, Messrs.
Republicans, for you to claim so much more for your
candidate and party than they Can perform, even il
they should happen to he placed in power Union,
