Amador Correspondence.

AMADoR, July 7th, 1858.
EDS. LEDGER:-The course Of some Of our
candidates for co Offices during the present
campaign, forcibly reminds me of lagos oft
repeated charge to Rodirego to put money
in bis pocket and also of the vulgar but
expressive saying that money makes the
mare 60" and / think the same proverbs
must have been indeIibly impressed upon the
minds of some candidates for some Of the u-
cratiye Offices, Judging from the looseness
with which their cash is scattered about the
county from the hands Of individuals known
to lie in their interests, but nsrer known to
be in such flush circumstances before
If the Offices are to be sold to the highest
bidder, let the proper authorities issue a
proclamation stating the time and place; that
will let the other candidates know what to
depend upon, and give them an opportunity
to draw off" in time to save themselves
from the modification Of defeat in conyen-
tion
But, Messrs Editors, do not believe the
people can be bought so easily, for think
the time has come when they will begin to
pay some attention TO the good old Demo
cratic rule of rotation in Office and when
person in the enjoyment of good fat Of
fee uses the benefits derived thercfrom for
the purpose of securing his reelection, they
will pass him by aud confer it upon some
person equally worthy and much more needy

A DEMocRAT.-A communication signed
"a Democrat appears in our paper this
morning. 1t was first sent to the Ledger
and that paper refused to publish il as the
''shoe pinched" too hard.
The above extract we cut from the ANA
dor Sentinel, Of last Saturday. and pronounce
it utterly untrue
The author Of the communication, brought
it to our office for publication, and when we
examined his production we discovered that
he had committed great error, in quoting
the proceedings of the Convention We
went to him and so informed him. he then
said he would call and get his effusion, make
the correction and return it. He took the
document and published it in the Sentinel
without making any correction that we are
able to discover
The resolution, as quoted by him, was Of
fered by a delegate to the County Conven-
ton from Volcano, but it fell still born, and
the Convention elected delegates to the State
Convention without regard to their being
members of the County Convention.
Here is the resolution that "a Democrat
complains of
