D.moeratlc state Convention.

A controversy seems to prevail In the ranks
Of the democracy with reference to the prepri
ETY. or expediency Of assembling convention
to nominate the two State officers for election
in the approaching fall. Were It not for the
difference which has arisen out Of tho Kansas
embroglio We apprehend that few would be
found to insist upon convention. There
bat democrats, and the most deserving and best
qualified for the positions would In all proba-
bility receive the popular suffrage. The plan
suggested by the Placer Herald Of asking the
county conventions to assemble at an early day
and designate their choice, would assist doubt
Tess In concentrating the popular democratic
vsts. II Ii safe to assume that by such means
the expense and trouble Of calling together the
representatives Of tho party from the length
and brsdth Of the State might be avoided. A
few indiscreet Hotspurs who are ever ready to
peril all and to ''cavl upon the ninth part of a
hair" are found however, who putting at
naught all considerations of prudence can see
NO motive for those who oppose the convention,
but fear Of the estricism which awaits the
friends Of the National administration. If these
gentlemen weuld take time to reflect they
might possibly doubt somewhat when the shells
were gathered together, which would pass into
banishment. Let the voice Of the democracy
alone be heard and we have no fears for the
result. To preserve the party in its integrity
as IL is, without affiliations with Black Repub-
licanism or any other ism should be the highest
aim at this time Of every true democrat We
stood in solid column against the assault Of o
sectional party of portentious strength in the
last Presidential election, and in its defeat ex-
triumph of conservative principles over the
spirit OF fanaticism. What democrat has failed
in his faith since then, OF can be SO blind as
not to diseera in the disruption Of his party
the nnal success Of the Black Republicans and
their natural allies the abolitionists. We do mol
hesitate to declare therefore that fear OF ere.
ating scism in the party; Of prseipitating an
issue that may lead to disastrous results fol
the country, may in some measure Influence VI
in opposing this convention. 1t matters not t,
rs which wing Of the party should be found il
the ascendant. the triumph wsuld be at the ex
penss Of the democratic power. If that part,
is now broken, the sceptre has departed from
Israel. Better preserve the vase whole and en-
tire than trust to the uncertain hope of agair
semsnting together its scattered fragments
The glory Of having contributed to the work Of
reconciliation, is worth more to us thousand
fold than the barren triumph to be gained over
those Of our own faith and household.

your Restorative in my family-first by nv good

large bottles, her hair was restored nearly 10 its
original beautiful brown color, and had lhickcned
and had become beautiful and glossy upon. and
entirely over the head she continues to use it,
not simply because ofits bcautifying effects upon
The hair, but because Of its healtliful Influence
upon the head and mind. Others Of nv family
and friends are using your Restorative, with the
hnppiest effects; therefore, my skcpticism aud
doubtsin reference to lis character and value fre
entirely removed; and can aud do most cortA,
