Meeting at Humbug.

Editor Nerada Journal When par
ty nominations are not congenial TO our
feelings, and when we cannot onscien-
tiously support the nominees of thf par
ty, with which we claim an affinity! We
claim it our right, and our duty as Amer
lean citizens, in virtue of our regard for
the purity and perpetuity of our hallow-
ed institutions, to cast them off, we
are free people in the most liberal sense
of the words Held not by a tyfants
grasp, but at liberty to do as our consci'
ences dictate. In consideration of these
privileges and rights, guaranteed us by
our magma charta, the independent vo-
ters of this district convened on Saturday
evening last, for the purpose OF nomina-
ting Township officers. John Hunter
was called to the chair and W. Andrews
appointed Secretary. After some little
discussion, Mark Emerson was unani-
mously nominated for Justice Of the
Peace, and Jas. Marriott for Constable.
This is an Independent ticket. composed
of our best, and most reliable citizens,
irrespective of party. And to the in
dependent voters of Eureka township is
presented ticket that will bear the
test of Jefferson-are they honest ARE
they capable ?
twas also unanimously resolved, that
we endorse A. Hartman, of Moore's
Flat, for Justice, and ii. A. Kelley. Of
Orleans Flat, for Constable.
On motion, the meeting adjourned sire

~ The Democrat grossly misunder-
stands the remark made by Mr.. Cum
mings in regard TO his conversation with
Mr.. McKibben at Sacramento. Mr.. c.
says the report of his remarks in the Bee
was correct. The Bee reported
"Mr. Cummings arose to make a cor
rection. He had said that Mr.. McKib-
ben had told him that the Douglas wing
was overheard. This was not correct
Mr. Mex. referred only to the Admins
tration wing, and the inference that Mr.,
Mex. desired the Republican party to
remain intact was conclusion only of
the speaker
The remark that tie Administration
Democracy was overheard" i. e. out
of the party and in drowning position
eontradicts the construction of our neigh
Dor, which, taken altogether, is as far
from the facts as possible.

plain about that oath.

WHAT CONSISTENCY! lit will be re-
collected with what an air of injured in
nocense, and with what pertinacity, II
Meredith condemned the action of the
County Central Committee for inviting
all who would acknowledge fealty to the
Cincinnati platform, to take part in the
primary meetings of the Democracy
The public mind was set ablaze by his
denunciations. A meeting was called
and held in which Meredith inveighed
against the heresy of the act.
A change has come DER the spirit Of
his dream. An apostate from the fag-
end of The Know Nothing party has be.
come "born again" into the Meredith
faction, and he who dccried against al
lowing such specimens of humanity a
vote but a week or two ago, in primary
meeting, receives the migrate with open
arms. and as chairman of the Central
Committee, is keen to decide him wor-
thy to be prominent candidate on the
Meredith ticket! Not fit to vote, but
quite fit to be voted for This is con-
sistency in these dry times truly re.
freshing.

DEMoCRATIC MEETING- SPEECH OF
Col. TAYLoR.-Agreeably to announce
ment the citizens of Nevada assembled
in front of the Senate Saloon on Friday
evening last. The meeting was presi-
ded over by DR.. Knox. After few
preliminary remarks by Frank j. Dnnn
Esq. Col. Taylor was introduced to the
crowd, ana spoke of tie issues Of the day
in frank and forcible manner. The
Colonel labored under some disadvanta-
ges. I.was the evening of the Military
ball and he had only time to condense
his remarks into very brief space. The
speech however gave general satisfac-
ton. Jtwas.a dignifed effort and wor-
thy of candidate for judicial honors.
Col. Taylor was followed by VIM. H.
Martin, Esq. who kept the audience in an
uproar, by his striking comparisons, ap-
propriate anecdotes, and pointed allu-
sions.
After Mr. Martin concluded loud calls
were made by"Sprightly," and two or
three other pups for Sargent. They
were the same things who Kissed that
gentleman from the stand when one
years since chance was offered him to
skin John B. Weller and Tom. Williams
alive.
The meeting adjourned at an early
hour to allow all who desire an opportu-
nifty to attend the ball

~ The Deacon says we called hi

~ The Deacon says we called him
a skunk. Not so, Deacon. You said
you had mission to perform. We
said, so had skunk. You felt the
truthfulness of the simile and mistook
the skunk for yourself, or yourself for
the skunk, just as you please. 1t was a
slight but honest mistake and we can
not in conscience blame you for 1.-THE
missions are SO similar everybody is

~ From the extraordinary efforts of
the Grass Valley :editor, to prescribe a
candidate on account of religious views,
we took him to be Jealous church men,
Der, and as he seemed to speak by au-
thority, we took him to be Deacon and
gave him that sobriquet. The Deacon
answers to the appellation, and in return
dubs us "Domine.' The Deacon seems
to have an idea how we rank with him in
the church.

Op,S,o, oFAN INDEPENDENT PARTY.

OPINION OF AN INDEPENDENT PARTY.
The Napa Reporter. an independent pa
per, uses the language quoted below In
reference to the two candidates for Su-
preme Judge. Mr.. Currey, anti-Lecomp-
ton, seems to bear the test of scrutiny,
while his opponent is every day getting
the reputation of what the Scotch call a
"ne'er do weel."
1--WE believe John Currey is eminent
lv fitted for this exalted station. Of age
sufficient to have learned calmness and
candor-of learning in the Jaw an ac-
knowledged master, and in all the rela-
tions of life SO pure that even SANDERS
voice has never been raised against him /;
we would willingly trust in his ripe and
honest judgment the high functions of a
Supreme Judge. We shall vote for him
with the greater pleasure because we
believe, that at this crisis, such mind as
his is required to steady the ark gov
ernment in our now State, and to give
high tone to the decisions and author
ity of the Supreme Court. We believe,
too, that generally, candid men will give
him preference over his opponent, Mr..
Baldwin, and for the same reasons which
influence us.
Mr.. Baldwin is literary man of con-
siderable ability. We have known him
by reputation ever since the first ap-
pearance of the "Flush Times in Alaba-
ma" in the Southern Literary Messen-
ger, and have had many laugh over
his witticisms. But, if we are rightly in
formed, he is rather an accomplished
gentleman-a bon rirant-a literary
snapper up of unconsidered triAes"-
than a man of cool deliberatfcn, sound
learning and dignifed and irreproacha-
BILE life. He is a capital joker, but
would, we fear. make an indifferen!
judge"

70 Should the Alantic Telegraph 6s
successfully completed, Europe. Asia,
! Africa, and America will be brought into
electric communication with each other,
and remarkable'progress will have been
made towards the civilized unity of the
human race. From New Found
land there is telegraphic communication
with New Orleans distant 3,71O miles fol-
lowing the course Of the wire, and when,
the Atlantic cable is laid, direct
communication can be obtained with Con
stantinople, thus uniting the four conti-
nents. 1t is calculated that a message
leaving thcITurkish capital at 2 o'clock,
say on Monday afternoon, will reach
New Orleans at o'clock the same even
ing. The first message from CONSTANT
nople direct left on Sunday evening,
May at 11.45, and arrived in London
at g. 81 in the evening of the same day,
London time, beating the sun nearly
three hours.

REPUBLICAN, Mass MEETING.-F. P
Tracy, Republican candidate for Con.
gress, spoke in front of the Senate sa.
loon to large and most attentive audi
tory on Saturday night. The speech
like all of Mr.. Tracy's efforts, was a
splendid one, addressed to the judgment
and understanding of men-not their
prejudices-and was not vulnerable in a
single point. 1t was most thorough
and convincing argument throughout, of
the inconsistency and corruption of the
present Administration. The Lecomp-
tonites may be safely challenged to con-
trovert a single proposition of Mr.. Tracy.
His argument was sound, logical and
conclusive,-his illustrations apt and
amusing and his language eloquent, and
strong. Mr.. Tracy has no superior on
the stump for impregnability of argu-
ment.
J. N. Turner, Esq. presided, and A. A
Sargent, Esq. opened and closed the
meeting with appropriate remarks.

- Lecomptonite, high in the coun-
sells of the Chivs in this county, said the
other day: 1--WE despise the northern
doughfaces as much as anybody. We
use them and laugh in our sleeves at
them. Ifthey will be tools, we wont OBJ
ject. We use the pittiful things to do
our dirty work-thcy are not worth ours
ing, SO we tolerate them till they want
favors. Because we let them cheer at
our political meetings, the fools think we
trust them-as if man false to his own
section would be true to ours"
