eTy~ The National Democrat, in terms more
vigorous than courteous, ch rges us with
misstatiug the flct in saying that Mr.. Rear
dan and Mr. Lindley, as Independent Demo
cratic candidates. divided the vote of the
Administration Democracy. and thereby
elected Mr. Bliss District Judge That paper
declares that Mr. Beardan and Mr.. Bliss both
ran as anti Administration candidates; and
that, although they divided the opposition
vote, Mr.. Bliss beat both Reardnn and Lind
ley. We do not care to debate the question
of Mr. Reardans polite; aud will simply re
mark that We never heard the friends or foes
of that gentleman say, or intim ate that he
was other than an Administration Democrat;
that his friends adv ocated his election upon
this ground; that the friends of Alr. Bliss op
posed him upon this ground; and, finally,
thas he himself voted the regular Admins
trItiOn DE nocrd,ic cket-ErpresS, yesterday
The Express is mistaken in supposing that
any discourtesy was intended in the remarks
made 10y this paper touching the subject
above alluded to. 1t did seem. however
very strange to US that the Express would
claim Mr. Reardau us an Administration man
when it was SO generally understood by hi.
Douglas supporters that he was anything
but an Administration man. But, the mys
terry is now explained Mr. Reardan, it seems
was voted for hy Administration men as an
Administration candidate, electioneered for
by them on the same ground, and, TO crown
all, did, himself vote for the Administration
ticket
Now, all we have to say is, that among
Mr.. Reardans most ardent supporters were
men who eleetioueered for him and voted for
him as a Douglas man, and who would have
seen him in Tophet before thy would have
lifted finger in his behalf, on any othersup
position. Much regret was expressed 10y
Douglas men at his defeat, which regret i
now, perhaps, not quite so poignant as IL
first Mr. Reardan has right to he an Ad
ministrauon man, if he likes, but, if he hOC
been elected, we would most certainly has
supposed that a Douglas victory had beei
achieved. One thing is certain. he was II
Administration man when he made his speed
before the Judicial Convention, which aile,
to nominate him, and we have never seen
till yesterdays issue Of the Express, any pub
lie proclamation of change of front, on hi
part, on the Kansas issue 1t is true, that
since the speech alluded to was made, di
vision in the Democratic party took place a
Sacramento, and two Conventions were held
but it is 40 less fact that the Douglas friend
Of Mr. Reardan continued to support him, OF
pouglas grounds, as well after those Conven
tions were held as before Mr.. Reardan, a
We have said before, las a right to be al
Administration man if he likes, aud We wish
him much JOY Of bis new position.

NoUNG AMERICA on THE KNIFE.-On Thurs
day evening, says the Sierra Democrat, some
boys living in town, were up at the South
Fork swimming, and closed their performan.
ces by an afterpiece OH shore Two of them
had quarrel, and the larger one said some
thing about whipping the ether. This was
retorted to 10y notice not to touch him, or
there would be somebody hurt The larger
boy pitched in, when the other drew knife.
and cut the larger boy, George, in the left
shoulder, infiicting a large and deep wound.
He struck again, and cut the left forearm in
the fleshy part, cleaving it nearly to the bone,
and severing the artery. George came to
town, and just as he reached DR.. Kibbes of
hce, tainted and fell on the street, from loss
of blood-which had streamed from him dur.
ting his walk of half mile. His wounds
were dressed, the flow of blood stopped. and
he put to bed. He tainted number Of
times afterwards.
