Doubtless many false reports will be circu.
lated today at the different precincts. in regard
to the Democratic candidates. Ifreports derok-
atory to any OF our candidates should bs start

TO effect the result A story was current in the
lower part Of the county. day or two ago
that Beldsn had Withdrawn ; it is useless to say
that the story was without foundation. Be

Are not J. p. Hoge and J. A. McDougal and
many other Ex-Douglas Democrats. the men
who prevented the LecOmpton State Conven.
tion from denouncing David c. Broderick !
Wouldn't they have bOlted If such acti, had
been taken? Did not those men go into the
Lecompton Convention solely for the purpose
of procuring the nomination Of J. G. Baldwin
for Supreme Judge! Ia there not certain
class Of lawyers in San Francisco, who are par
ticularly anxious to see Baldwin elevated to the
Supreme Bench. for private purposes of their
own, and to accomplish this object. are willing
to surrender all the political principles which
they ever possessed?

WHITE SLAvEs.-The Sacramento Mercury the
central organ Of the Lecompton party of this
State. in its issue Of July 4th. 1858, speaks as
follows. in regard to fOreiyne and working
men of the north:
Here it is convenient, too. to forget that
the slaves to capital at the North all vote and
exercise other acts Of citizenship, and thereby
secure to that section its numerical ascendancy.
There votes, too. cOnsist of a vast proportion
Of foreigners, as little instructed in the true
theory aud principles Of our government as are
the ordinary slaves upon Southern plantations.
You drive up your slaves to the polls. in many
instances, merely to echo your political prefer.
ences; the Southerner keeps his better employ
ed in the field. and does not thus prostitute the
elective franchise"
After reading the above. from leading lie
compton paper. foreigners and workngmen
should by oil means support the ticket which
that paper recommends. The Lecompton lead
ers know how to treat workingmen aud foreign
ers; instead Of allowing them to vote. and par
tisipate in the affairs of government, they
would, If they had the power, keep them .'bet-
ter employed in the field" and thus guard the
elective franchise from being prostituted by
greasy mechanics and ignorant foreigners
The classes ofthe community thus rtigmatized
by the Lecompton organ. will not fail to prop
erly appreciate the kindness of their would-be.
masters. who imagine they were born to gov
ern, aud that the people have nothing to do
but to obey their commands. The Fourth of
July was . glorious day on which to give ut.
tsranee to the sentiments quoted above.

Douglas ana the Administration.

The Washington Union. and other papers ua-
der the immediate contrel Of the Administra-
tion. are waging bitter and unrelenting war
against Senator Douglas. They are now open
ly procIaining that Douglas must be defeated,
knowing full well that his defeat will result in
the election of an ultra Republican to the U. 8.
Senate. The articles now being published In
the Washington Union against Judge Douglas
are believed to be written under the immediate
direction OF the President. The same state
ments and language are held commonly among
the friends of the Administration and it il bold
ly announced that the war is to be kept up at
every hazard. The Federal officers 60 notified
that every refusal ~ enlist in the crusade
against Douglas will be followed by an imme-
diate removal. The Quincy Qllinois) Herald
quotes as follows from letter addressed by
Isaac Cook. the DANTE postmaster at Chicago.
TO friend OF his in . neishboring county IT
Is THE TRUE POLICY OF ell tho friends ofae Admin
,stration in Illinois TO VOTE FOR REPuBLrcAS CAN.
DIDATEs FOR THE LEGISLATURE. when they are
not strong enough to run candidates of their
own" It must be remembered that Cook en-
joyed In. the highest degree the confidence OF
the President, and that he 10 the leader and
drill master of the Administration squad in Ill
inois. The course Of the Administration to-
wards Senator Douglas is unaecountable. A
few months ago. the cry was that Lecompton
must be put through Congress or dissolution
Of the Union would follow. The same men are
now proclaiming that Douglas must be defeated
in order to save the Democratic party, aud the
cry has been caught up aud is now being waited
over the country by the camp followers and
lick-spittleS Of the Federal power.
The Lscompisnites Of this State have thus far
abstained from denouncing Douglas, and pro-
fess to regard him as q Democrat; but as soon
~ the election is over the mask will be thrown
OF. and they will then strike up the tune and
follow in the wake Of their matters at the Fed
eral Capital. That they intend to do this is
evident from the course they have pursued. In
all the Conventions and public meetings Of
which they had control, they have studiOuSly
avoided adopting any resolution recognizing
Douglas as Democrat, although many Of them
openly profess to agree with him in his con-
struction Of the KansAs- Nebraska BILL Their
obect is to take no position until after the cleo
tion. 70 that they can denounce his course here
after without appearing inconsistent.

The people Alone are Sovereign.


From every portion Of the county rings this
battle cry OF the true Democracy. The hills
that echoed it in ifty-six have caught again
the we'll known slogan and shout il to the sea.
The clans are gathering. Upon the one side.
the vultures, the jackals Of Federal power, that
live only in the corruption Of government, are
grasping in despair at the power about to be
wresied from them forever; while upon the
other, in their giant strength, come the cohorts
OF the people-they come ~ came their sires In
the struggle Of the Revolution, armed with the
right, to battle for themselves in the contest oi
to-day, which decides whether the government
Is the servant Of the people. or the people the
serfs, the vassals Of the government. II 10 9
struggle in which corrupted power is arraysd
against an incorruptible people; In which each
man decides for or against himself; in which
each freeman must fall PROSTATE before the
Baal of mn Administration, or renew his fealty
to the freedom Of the people. With such is-
sues the result cannot be doubtful. The people
can only fall by their own hand. Armed with
just cause. and battling for their own rights,
they are invincible; and in their strength alone
lies the national safety, for the government
that conquers the people must stand upon the
ruins of American Liberty. With these parties
and this issue, the result is certain; and to-day
the voice Of California. from her golden noun
tains and her fertile plains will ring across the
sea. proclaiming to her elder sisters, that where
American Freemen rule the People alone are
Sovereign.
