WE CoNcUR.-The Marysville Inquirer
thinks that Col. Zabriskie is ''slightually
erratic in his political course and hardly Of
weight enough to demand as much notice as
he is receiving from the press of the State,
and adds that the "notices" are what he de-
sires to obtain. We are forced to a like
conclusion, and think that few weeks
newspaper notoriety will make him vastly
astonished athis own Importance, as exalted
an idea he even now entertains thereof.
Oroville daily Butte record., 1857-08-06

THE OPINION OF AN INDEPENDENT
NEwsPApER.-In commenting upon Colonel
Weller's speech in Marysville, the Inquirer
holds forth as follows: "Col. Weller has ev-
identity the hearts Of the Democratic masses
with him. He deserves their confidence, for
he has always been noted for expressing his
sentiments freely, whether they were popu-
lar or otherwise, and the result is, that
when he pleases his hearers they know that
he does so by uttering what he thinks is
true, without reference to buncOmbe.

WORSE AND MoRE OF IT In reply to the
''base charges made against him, Judge
Bennett confirms said charges in the follow
ing paragraph of his own letter:
II had been offered a respectable sum as
a general retaining fee, in case would re-
sign and take charge of the legal business of
a banking firm in this city, and as the only
means which saw of rescuing myself from
the pecuniary embarrassments in which
found myself, accepted the offer and re-
signed my Office"
Wonder if retaining fee'' wouldn't se
cure his services again, provided he should
be so fortunate as to be elected.

SETTLERS CoNvENTIoN.-The Union OF
yesterday contains very lengthy report Of
he Settlers Convention. Up to yesterday
morning no nominations had been made. and
a considerable degree of wrangling had been
had and several delegations had withdrawn.
Mai. Bowie and COL Stanly were the promi.
nent candidates talked Of for the Guberna-
torial nomination. A report was in circu-
lation in town yesterday that Stanley had
received the nomination, and We are inclined
to think it true, as Major Bowie's friends
had nearly all withdrawn according to the
Unions account of Monday evenings pro-
ceedings.

FIRE IN THE WooDs.-The Crescent City
Herald of the Goth ult., says: For the last
week our town has been in state Of con-
slant excitement in regard to fire. Some
parties who were clearing off some lots in
the timber back of the town, in order to ex
pedite the matter, set the brush on fire The
very violent winds that have been prevailing
lately, soon famed the blaze to such an ex-
tent that it came sweeping directly toward
the town, and at various times there was ev-
cry probability of catching some of the
buildings farthest out, in which case, with
the gale which was blowing, there is no tel
ling where it would have stopped. The fire
bell was sounded several times, and the fire.
men and citizens generally hurried to the
spot where the flames were most threaten
ing but no damage was done save the burn
ing of few fences.

A Fearful Edict.

Our heart sinks within US as we ponder
over the fearful calamity which has befallen
the Democracy, at once crushing out the
party in this State and consigning Col. We'll
ler to the shades of oblivion. We have been
fighting che enemy thus far with courage
and hope inspiring our breast, but oh how
our knees smote together and what palsy
seized our arm at the announcement con-
tanned in the epistolary edict of that omnip-
otent guardian of our party's honor, the i'm
mortal Zabriskie, that he had withdrawn his
support from Col Weller, 4" and so informed
him" What has our bereaved party done
that this dire misfortune should thus fall
upon her? Is there no redress Is there
no balm in Gilead - Can no political plaster
be applied that shall at once soothe the
ColonePs blighting wrath, and draw him
back to the party? Oh relent Be for
nent" US if you must. but oh if you love
your country, give US your allpowerful sup
port. We know your power and dread it
We know you elected Bigier Governor in '55
and Weller to the senate in 'b7, and how
are we going to do without you' At least
be mercful, remembering that mercy
"Is twice blessed,
II blesseth him that gives, and him that takes;
'Tis mighiest in tho mightiest-
Oh be magnanimous great Kernel, and
suffer poor Democracy to live little longer.
and when once more you have reinstated her
on her throne of glory and power, take to
thyself the proud consolation Of old Corio-
lanus, Alone did it,"

AFTER HIM-The Democratic Conven-
tion Of Plumas county nominated Mr. s.
A. Ballou. as candidate for Member of As
sembly 1t having subsequently leaked out
that Mr.. Ballou voted for Fremont at the
last election, the county committee call upon
him to deny they charge, or they will re-
move his name from the ticket. Mr.. j. c.
Lewis, one of the boiling delegates from
Plumas county to our Judicial Convention,
is one of the County Committee who are af-
ter Mr. Ballou, and is not willing to permit
Mr. Ballou to run on the ticket, provided
he boted the Democratic ticket last fall -
We hope the Plumas Democracy will repudi-
ate him if he did so, and herafter serve all
in the same manner, who may bolt the DEM
cratic ticket at the coming election. The
difference between voting for Mr.. Fremont
and voting for boilers who sustain the Re-
publican organization is but trifing, and
one is as anti democratic as the other. We
hope Mr.. C. Lewis may succeed in purg-
ing the Democratic party of all who sustain
Republican men or Republican organiza
tions.

Wolfe's Scheidam Aromatic
SCHN APPS,

Which adueraled compo nds are intended 10 sell in
California against my genuine article.
Nv object is to announce that have recently es-
tnblished an AGENCY IN SAN FRANCISCO for
supplying the State and Oregon with my Schnapps,
and that hereafter will always keep said agency
supplied with large stock SO that respectable drug
gists and liquor dealers throughout California
can always supply themselves at regular price,
merely enough over the New York price TO cover
cost of freight and charges; thus avoiding complaint
as heretofore. of occasional scarcity and extreme
high price.
1t is now many years since first imported these
Schnapps from the celebrated old dstillery at Sshee

WANT A FIRE ENGINE.-Some of the SEN
sible citizens of Napa have written letter
to the Reporter, urging the people of that
city to purchase fre-engine. If their ap'
peal falls on as listless ears as those into
which we have SO often sounded similar
suggestion, they will very probably be gray
with age before " mersheen" rolls through
the streets of Napa. We hope they may
plead to better account than we have.

Music WHAT is MUsIc.-With commen-
dable spirit of enterprise, and desire to
accommodate the musical taste of this COM
munity, Deacon Sheldon yesterday employed
and last evening had in full blast, a troupe
of Chinese minstrels who with a fiddle, a
banjo, gourd, and q saw-fle voice made
the most approved and delightful strains of
Celestial music to the edification and delight
of hundreds of eager listeners. In keeping
with the music, the Deacon has set a Chinese
lunch, composed of several dried fish, a roll
of raw cotton, and some petrifactiOns resem-
bling ship bread. Amatuer musicians and
hungry lunch-eaters flock to the Deacon's,
and his saloon is redolent with celestial mu-
sic and odorlferous exhalations.

BURGLARS ABoUr.-The Marysville Er-
press says that Mr.. Lyler's house in that
city was entered on Monday night and some
money stolen. The doors of the house were
left open, affording an easy ingress to the
rascals. If people don't want to have
"dead thing on being robbed, they ought
to keep their outside doors closed and fas-
tened, especially in town containing as
many rascals as Marysville.

Big SNAKE-William Welk killed a ''pes-

According to theory Of old snakers this
"critter'' was some twenty nine years old /;
allowing three years for the reptile to "cut'
his first rattle. The Editor of the Mariposa
Gazette keeps the said rattle as o keepsake
