TnE ANrI-LEcoMrToN STATE CENTRAL CON-
MIrrEE met in Sacramento Oh Thursday and
nominated Edmund Randolph, of San Fran
cisco, for the Office of Attorney General and
j. II. Jcwett of Marysville, for that of State
Treasurer. During the session, the following
letter was received from Elijah Steele, the
nominee of the AntiLecompton State Con-
vention for the Office Of Attorner C General:
YREkA, Siskiyou Co, California,
June "a, 1859.
To the Central Committee fthe Ani Lecop,p.
Ton Democratic Party Of the State Of Cali.
fornia:
GENTLEMEN: ] am just advised that by the
deliberations of the Convention, Of the 18th
instant, at Sacramento, have the honor Of
the nomination for the Office Of Attorny Gen.
eral of the State of California.
To the principles of non Intervention |
heartily subscribe, and in my adherence to
those principles, recognize the Convention OF
the 18th instant as the regular organization
of the Democratic party, and believe that at
the coming election the people will, by heavy
majoriies ratify your proceedings. The
office to which | am nominated requires n
residence in Sacramento which, if should
be SO fortunate as to be the choice of the peo
pie of California, would be incompatible
with my interests in Siskiyou county, Be
lieving that no one has a right to submit his
name for position that he knows he could
not fill; therefore, with thanks to the gen.
tlemen OF the Convention for the honorable
notice they have seen fit to take of me, most
respectfully decline the proffered honor.
This course | should not pursue were not
convinced, from immediate association with
the masses of the people, that the success of
the nominees of our party is almost certain.
AS 1t is, some person conveniently located
should receive the nomination at your hands
With apledge of industrious and active
work in the ranks, remain, very respectful
ly, Your obedient serv't,

The "Ligbtfoot" will never fail to make hen

four weeks the Hannibal railroad will be en-
tirely completed, and there will be an un-
broken chain of railroad to Hannibal and
from themes to any of the eastern cities.-
The fare on the road Is much lower than or
the Missouri river packets from ST. Louis,

In the proceedings of the last meeting oi
the Board of Supervisors for this county,
As published in THE News of last week, We
find the following:
Ordered, By the Board, that the County Treas
urer be required to withhold the amount OF Terri
orial tax paid into his hands for the coming year
That is what we call cool-refreshingly
so!
At former meeting, the Board made an
assessment, according to law, of three mills
on each dollar of taxable property, for Ter
ritorial purposes and enc dollar capitation
tax from each qualified elector. They also
made an assessment at the same time oi
eight mills on each dollar of taxable prop
erty in the county for county purposes
The people generally complained that the
tax was exorbitant-that there must be ex-
travagance somewhere. What will they say
now, when this Board of Supervisors, in or
der to meet the extraordinary expenses Of
its own meetings.-about once fortnight
have decided that the Territorial tax shall
not be paid into the Territorial Treasury,
but shall be charged over against the coun-
ty to another year, sUah interest, and the
enormous sum of one dollar and ten cefsts on
the hundred dollars, exclusive of the capita
ton tax, be appropriated to paying the per-
diem, mileage. and other expenses of the
Board of Supervisors, that have as yet ac-
complished nothing of substantial benefit
for the county? The only thing, in fact,
for which they are particularly noted, is
drawing their perdiem and mileage with
commendable punctuality. The county i:
to be plunged into debt and an expensive
litigation with the Territory, to crafty th,
inordinate propensities of these superanuated
grannies. to feed at the public crib. W.
believe that the County Treasurer is mar
of too much good sense to pay any atten
ton to this extraordinary order of the Board
and will proceed to settle with the Terrific
rial authorities according to law. In so do
ing, he will save his own credit and that o
the county.
The Supervisors present at this meeting
of the Board, were Peter Eikenberry, OF
Cottonwood; c. Columbia, of Agnes City
VIM. Grimsley, of Americus. We ask the
people to make note of this fact in the
choice of Supervisors for the next year.
