OpD FELLOWS ADDREssEs.-Of all the pub
lished oratons delivered in this State on the
Fortieth Anniversary of the Introduction of Odd
Fellowship into the United States, we give the
preference to that delivered by Calvin b. Nc
Donald, editor of the Trinity Journal Unlike
all others, it is short-nothing like verbosity or
repetition and re-repetition to be found in it
1t probably occupied thirty minutes in the de-
livery And yet it contains more beautiful
thoughts, more surprisingly fine imagery, more
admirably constructed sentences, and more of
the divine aflatus of the orator than others that
we have seen published, although nearly all of
them took at least an hour each in their deliv
cry. We are not surprised to learn that mi
ner, at the conclusion of McDonalds address,
forced him, nolens uoleas, to accept present of
$50 in gold.

The GubernatoriaI Race,

The contest now going on between the friends
of Denver, Weller, Latham and Nugent for the
nomination for Governor at the hands of the
Democratic State Convention is becoming very
interesting. The indications are that Denver.
since his arrival, has knocked previous arrange
ments of the programme makers into great con-
fusion. This is just as we, several months
since, before anybody knew that Denver intend
ed to RETURN frequently predicted would be the
case, provided he announced his name as can
didate. We then expressed the belief that Gen.
Denver was the strongest man in the State 'be-
fore the people," We think so still Indeed the
evidences that this is SO begin to accumulate
rapidly from every portion of the State. The
mere announcement of his name as candidate
has excited old Democrats who for years have
been quiet voters. In this part of the State he is
well and favorably known, and of course has a
host of ardent friends.
Weller has also number of ardent friends in
the county, who would like to see him re-nomi-
mated. Latham is also personally known to
many of our citizens, and can boast of warm
supporters in Shasta county, as can also John
Nugent.
Before the arrival of Denver it was generally
thought that the contest lay between Weller and
him. Now, however, the fact is patent that the
contest lays between Denver and some enc of
the others.
a QUEsTloN.-A question arises, now that it
is shown that James Keene is not a citizen of
the United States, whether or no any of his of
hcial acts are legal. We incline to the opinion
that all business of civil character performed
by him as Justice is legal So far as criminal
business is concerned there is more room for
doubts. We think the Courts have heretofore
held that unless suiter puts in the plea of the
Courts incompetency at the time his suit is be-
fore it, or within the proper time thereafter, the
adjudication is legal, even though it may after
wards be proven that member of the Court or
the entire Court was unqualified to hold the
position.

FOURTH OF july BALL AT TEHAMA.-Messrs.
Ayres & Combs, of the "Tehama House" an
nounce that they purpose giving grand ball at
their hotel, in Tehama, on the evening of the
Fourth of July. We doubt not that these gem
tlemen will spare no efforts to make this indeed
grand affair. Tehama is one of the most de-
lightful little burghs" in the Yalley-is in
habited, as is also the surrounding country, by
the best sort ef people, and persons from dis
tance cannot therefore hit npon a more pleasant
place in which to celebrate the glorious "Fourth.
Around Tehama Mr.. Ayres enjoys an envable
popularity, while Charley Combs, not only there,

sition of Senator, and if the Democracy gives
him the nomination, will do honor to the dis

New MoDE OF MANUFACTURING BANK

pened TO Mr. Aguado, whose talent III pholog-

He laid wager that he would so exactly
initiate a French bank note that the differ

appointed the note was read and laid aside
with the original upon his desk. Judge, ju-
ry. all were ready 10 seize the smallest indi-
cation which would lead them into the right
sucss The gentleman who had laid the wa
ger took both notes in his hand to examine
,hem in the strong light. from the window.
Bv some accident he changed or shutfied
them from one hand TO the other, and when
he returned them to the desk, neither Nj.
Aguado himself nor any one Of the company
could tell which was the false note and which
the true! There they lie still-two thousand
franc notes-and all connoiseurs are invited

judges-but without effect.--LiUapoOL Paper.

SPEAKING ON BROAD SrREET.-Dr. MENEES'

do not appreciate him as they should. lie

race, not with any hope of being elected, but
simply to keep up their organization; he has
bow TO the dctatorial mandates OF his
party: he has been led as lamb to the
slaughter, and when he announced that
he would speak last night, we think
the least his party here should have
done was to turn out and give him
respectful hearing; but instead of this, they
remained at home over their cigars. ice-wa-
ter and paIm-leaf fans and suffered HIM to

GEN. QUARIEs' SPEECH LAST NIaHT.-Gen'
OUARIEs, our gallant standard bearer in this
Congressional District. addressed large
crowd at the Market House last night, by
;nvitation of the Young Mems Netherland
Climb He began about eight and closed at
ton o'clock. and though much iatigued from
the labors Of the canvass, his speech. in spill
II mower and eloquence, was all that his
most exaetng friends could have asked at his
hands. His discussion of the currency ques-
ton. and 10 fact of every other question OF
the canvass. was characterized by force,
ciearness and depth of argument that we have
never heard surpassed. We were struck with
the profound attention with which the crowd
listened to his speech throughout. But Gen.
QUARI.Es occupies a front rank among the
orators of our State, and never fails to CON-
mand the undivided attention OF his hearers
no matter to what party they may belong
He IS a man Of whom our party Is justly
proud we are proud of him now as the
bearer ofour standard in this contest, and we
shall point to him with pride as our Eext re-
presentative in Congress.
