President Buchanan.

The friends Of the Administration
should act in concert with each other.
Were those acting with the Democracy,
but who are in fact prostituting their
fealty to Democracy By subserviance 10
ambitious leaders, open and frank in the
course they intend to pursue, all would
be we'll. But they profess allegiance
TO, and admiration Of the Administra-
ton. They pretend friendship for the
President, whilo they are moving hea-
ven and earth to bind him as a victim
on the shrine Of ambition. What has
Senator Douglas done for Democracy,
that the party Should bow down to him !?
Judas may have been Of great service
10 the Son Of Mary, and to the eleven
apostles : he may have been the only
tinancier among them but when be
deserted his party snd sold bis Master
to the enemy, were his former services
as treasurer Of the apostolic band to be
considered as an offset for his treason .
|erlly, no. Were the brave acts Of
Benedict Arnold, prior to his detection
10 be deemed an atonement for the sale
Of bis country, and betrayal of Wash
ington : Surely not. When Martin
Van Buren, took position on the Buffalo
Platform, and under the influence OF
vindictiveness, defeated the Nestor of
american Statesmen, in the honorable
race for th, Sivic croan of'the Presiden-
cy, dill he not commit the objectionable
ein toward the Democracy Nothing
less. Ages can not wash away the
stain which that base act entailca upon
the name Of Van Buren,. SO with SEN
ator Douglas. He has betrayed the
trust reposed in him by the Democracy
Of America he has deserted the par
ty ia the hour of danger. He has sold
lis Chief for more paltry sum than
thirty pieces Of silver. He has gone
over to the enemy, and would now bear
aloFt tic black flag Of disunion, if the
Republicans would entrust him with
their banner Of iisunion. But they
seat him at the table aud place the
blade Of the knife toward him. They
tell him in language less subject to mis-
construction tbaa words, that he who
would betray bis party and sell his chief,
can not bc true 10 his ancient foes. Are
we bound under such circumstances to
bold our peace /; Ought the Demecra-
cy to refrain from a full and frank en-
dorscmeEt Of the President, because an
eminent Senator has forgotten his duty
to bis party: Surely not. Let the ques-
ton be presented. Let every friend
Of the Administration be forward to ex-
press his admiration Of the great and
good man who presides over the Ameri.
can Union, and their hearty approval OF
the acts Of the Administration. We
trust that every Democratic County
Convention 10 the State of California.
will be bold in the cause Of Democracy !;
for it is more glorious to be defeated in
a good cause, than to triumph in the
wrong.

have never known it to fail to exist
when the party acted properly-and.
Mr.. Editor, | wish you to understand.
that when | say party, mean the
masses, acting for themselves in person,
or by delegates fresh from them, and
elected f specific purposes. Consider.
able dlscord now exists throughout the
county on account of the apportionmens
tor the different precincts, which the
Central Committee has seen fit to make.
This should not distract the party in the
least, for it is apparent to every one that
the majority OF the committee in that
act, ruthlessly and against all precedent,
set at defiance the rule passed for the
regulation OF representation by tho con,
yention OF 1888 and / think the proper
course topursue is to disregard this anti
democratic assumption Of power by this
trio, and adhere to the unrepcaled, and,
until now, unviolated order passed by
the peoples representatives in 1858.
let delegates be elected to the county
convention to meet at Columbia on tho
70 inst, who will vindicatc the authori-
Ity OF the convention which met in
jamestown in 1853, and rebuke the
presumptuous and unauthorized assump-
ton OF authority by the trio composing
the majority of the committee. Let it
never be said that the democracy OF
iuolEmne have allowed the rights of
the masses to be dsregarded, set at de-
iance, and over-ridden By any one,
much less by those in whom Sbey have
placed reliance. Let the delegates of
the democratic people at the convention
indicate the peoples rights. They
will then have the sanction of the united
democracy. Let them tamcly succomh
to what is plainly wrong, and they
stand condemned as accessories to it.
Why did these three gentlemen yio-
late the order OF the convention Of 80,

WooD AsnEs-ARE THEY MANuRE'-
Some suppose they are not, and that
scattering them on the soil only Injuries
il. They are in error, as the follow
ing facts will show:
l. Ashes contain great amount OF
Potash, which is always regarded as
powerful manure, and when properly
used, always produces a senslbly ben
ctical effect.
But ashes contain other important
clements. Potash is what is removed
by teaching the ashes. Many vaIu;s,
bic elements are left behind. SO that
eachcd ashes have sometimes great
effect. By analysis, the following
amount of various elements has been
found in ashes that have been leached:
SILICA from two to thirteen per cent;
lime from twenty-scycn to iiity-tour
per cent; carbonic acid from twenty
one to thirty-nino per cent. All these
are among the most important agents
in the production or maintenance CT
vegetable life.
9. Ashes are nothing but what the
plants or wood which have been burn
ed. have taken from the soil COnSe-
uucnty, restoring what has come from
the soil, and fjudiciousIy done, it must
increase its strength.
3. Experience, both ancient and
modern, proves that ashes are waltz
able manure. The old Romans used
to burn brush, and scatter the ashes
on the land. The ancient Britona
burned their straw, and scattered the
ashes over the fields. and unnum-
bered instances in modern times might
be quoted to the same point
Practical LCoencc:-Saye all the
ashes that are made on your premises.
Wasting them, you throw away some
of the best manure that could be APP
piled. Some hints Oil the best use of
ashes may be furnished soon.-Ohio

i 1t is no, a shuttle machine.
) Ii scws with too needles, making any
length stitch desired.
6 It scws from two ordinary spoos, aud
thus all trouble or winding thread is avoided
while the same Machine can be adapted at
pleasure. by mere change of spooIs, TO all
varieties Of work.
1.-THE same Machine runs silk or linen
thread, and common spool cotton, with equal
facility.
8 This Machine will sew in the sleeves OF
a coat with the same ease and facility that il
sews straight seam.
This Machine can be run to make one
thousand five hundred stitches per minute.

to break in washing, ironing or otherwise.
| II The stitches made by this machine arc
more beautiful than any other made either BY
hand or machine.
The price of the Machines OF office in New
York, range from %7J to $3.50, an additional
charge Of $40 is only made on each machine
