ONE OF THE CANDIDATEs.-The Sonora Hsrald
published in Tuoumne county, thus speaks of Char
ley Scott, of that county, one of the Democratic
candidates for Congress
or McKibben we know, personally but little, but
we are told by those who profess to know him, that
ne is par with his associate on the ticket AS
for Mr.. Scott, we have known him for nearly six
years, and Notwithstanding we have been close OBJ
server of his actions, and have had ample opportuni-
ties of becoming acquainted with his qualifications
we must in all sincerity say that we have never yet
been able to discover single qualification which he
p,sstss>s that could fit him to represent the people
If this State in Congress. He is young and has
had no experience in pub c affairs, further than a
title practice in "one-hors" courts where he has
attained position as thirl-rate lawyer, in which
capacity he has som times been successful in few
mining The people Of his own county last fall
refused to send him to represent them in the State
Senate although he exerted all his powers to per-
',ade them that he fitted for the position Even
in the town where he had lived up to the time of the
election he did not more than half dozen votes
ahead of Bigler, the most unpopular man the De-
mocracy ever put forward.
If he had been proper person to represent the
people in any capacity is it not to be supposed that
his own neighbors, who knew him well, would have
known it? If he was possessed of any merit, is it
not to be supposed that his own townsmen wouI have
discovered 1t! Is 1t to be supposed that the 5000
voters of Tuolumne and Stanisaus counties have not
sufficient good sense to appreciate the merits of
man that has lived among them for years? And is it
to be supposed that if they thought Mr. Scott was
proper man to represent them in the Legislature they
would not have sent him there?
Mr.. Scott has failed to receive the endorsement
of the people of his countys it to be expected that
the people of the State will indorse him? Moreover
we will now hazard the prediction-bascd upon the
m 'st certain and correct grounds-that Mr.. Scots
vote in this county, at the next eabtion will fall far
short of what it was last fall. He is man in whom
the masses of the county have no confidence.

the sectional difficulty which 50 strongly threatens
the dissolution of our glorious Union therefore
Res0luet, That in MlarI Film re, we recognize
all those qualities which make the truly great states

istrate of the nation. A man who has been tried
and found true, and such will give him our cor
dial support.
Resoivei, That in Andrew ]. d nelson, we recog-
nize a distinguished statesman. true friend of the

for Congress- sterling integrity, EN- nent ability, and
true patriotism men who will redeem Cafornia's

fleet honor on the State and as such we give them
our hearty support

recognize in the Pacific Railroad the great desidera-
tum the master enterprise of the age, and that we
recognize in Millard Fillmore its avowed champion,
and that its inception and completion depend upon
his success.
