Low DowN.-Like the fly that
perched upon the revolving wheel of a
carriage, and exclaimed, "what devil
of dust we kick up" are the phalanx-
ers. Knowing that there will be large
and enthusiastic crowd in town to-mor-
row, to attend the American County
Convention, the Loco Foco Sag NIGHTS,
have appointed their city primary meet
ing at the same time. They can thus
cover up their weakness, and make a
great hellaballoo about a tremendous
gathering of the unterrified and un-
washed Democracy Of these parts, 1t
will give them an excellent opportunity
to get votes enough from the outside
precincts to keep up some sort OF ap-
pearance, and make blow about, for
thc same purpose that the boy whistled
at his fathers funeral.

A WONDERFUL HoRsE.-About four
wears siuce beautiful American mare
came across the plains, and was pur-
chased by Pat Hunt cf San Francisco.
After keeping the animal several months
Mr.. Hunt sold it to gentlemen residing
several hundred miles from San Fran
cisco.
A few days ago the gentleman arrived
with the same mare, and fastened it on
Clay street The animal broke loose
and ran to Mr. Hunts stable but was
apparently surprised and confused at the
remarkable change in the premises, but
recognizing an old acquaintance in the
person of a hostler, with neigh of delight
rushed into the stable and took posses
sion of one of the stalls.

AMERICAN PRIMARY MEETING-A

AMERICAN URINARY MEETlNG.-Ac- c
cording to previous announcement the
Americans of the city met at the Amer
lean Exchange on Saturday evening
last to elect delegates to the County
and State Conventions. An unusual
large crowd was in attendance at an
early hour, and more excitement and
interest was manifested than we have
been accustomed to witness at meetings
of this character. The democrats gath
cred around expecting to see few
stragglers, and only a few, but were
dumb founded at the display of numbers
before them. Their party sheets and
hacks had made them believe the Amer
lean party was dead beyond the hope of
resurrection, but they saw a spectacle
OF life and animation which made them
stand aghast. 1t was a comparativalv
unlmportant occasion, vet the Amer;-
cans turned out IN almost unprecedented
numbers In order to give chance for
d lalf expression Of opinion, the meet
ing ADJOURNED to Monday evening to
meet at the same place. On second
demonstration the interest did not abate
as was proven by the number of votes
Poiieu 1or delegates. Ballot boxes were
prepared and the polls were omen from
. to IL O'Clock, giving Americans and
riilmore men an opportunity to express
their preferences fairly. Near four bun
dred votes awere cast. Thirtv-eight
ueleSates were elected to represent
Nevada city in the County Convention
and four to attend the State Convention
at Sacramento. The names of the lat
ter are these:
John Anderson, II. c. Gardiner,
Geo. Hearst, George May.
The delegates to the County Conven-
ton, are friendly to the nomination Of
j. H. Helm, for Sheriff.
a great deal of zeal was exhibited
by voters for their particular friends who
are aspirants for office, but there was no
want of harmony in the meeting Of
Monday night. Everything passed off

W HAT Is ToBE DONE !-Itmust strike
every one who reads the public Jour
nails, that never since the advent of
Americans to this State was there q
time when robberies and thcfs were so
frequent as now. Every newspaper
contains one or more account of some
person or party being robbed on the
highway tr elsewhere These depre-
dations are becoming SO common that
we take them as matter of course, and
place no particular stress upon them
But this state Of things must change. 1t
will become necessary for the people of
the country TO rise and diiye back into
San Francisco the swarms of scoundrels
the Vigilance Committee have scattered
over the State. The daring and inso-
lencc Of some of these marauders are
unsufferable. They count too much
upon their strength and security. A
reward of any considerable amount
would send scores of adventurous spirits
into the field in search Of the lawless
bands oflard pirates that now infest and
are the terror Of some parts of the coun-
try.
Thousands of dollars have been spent
i'll the foolish attempt to put down a peo-
pie struggling to triumph over these ras-
Gals Of which the country now complains,
and perhaps no help may be expected
from the Executive against them in
their new field Of netarious labor. But
the money Of the State could not be
spent to a better purpose than in the
protection of peacable citizens by bring
ing the authors Of the mischief which is
an every day record, TO speedy punish
ment. We hope to see a reward for the
capture Of Tom Bell and others offered
by the Governor Of the State.

10 The County Convention of the
American party meets tomorrow in this
city, to select ticket for the support of
the people. There arc numbers of can
didates brought prominently forward by
friends, any one of which would do hon
or to the party, and receive the cordial
support of all who are now apparently
opposed to his nomination. Tb"rc is Il
great deal Of interest taken in the sue
cess of the various favorites, but the
best Of amicablc feelings prevail, ard in
any event the party will 90 as unit,
and with spirit for the support of the
nominees. We hope the fortunate ones
will be men of integrity, strength, and
generally acceptable to the people
From the material before the Conven-
ton from which to select, the nominees
cannot fail to possess all the requisites.
Give us the best ticket YOU can, gen
tlemen, and success is bound to reward
your candidates

was put in print. 1t is impossible to say
what may be published by and by, when

The people of Sonoma will be surpri-

The lines would have been richer fhea-

ed out the Diggers and half-breeds of
