ington correspondent Of the New York

suit Of caucus Of some forty or fifty OF the
Republican chiefs, lately held at the Astor
House. New York. 1t was determined to
sci aside Seward, and take up Edward Bates,
of Missouri, as the Republican or Opposition
candidate for the Presidency. 1t was de-
termined at this meeting, to invite the co
operation of all the opposition in the coun-
try against the Democratic party, and the
call of the Republican National Committee
is said to be in pursuance Of the plan thus
agreed upon.
The correspondent says "they went so
far as to discuss the question of Cabinet
programme, being as follows: Banks, Secre-
tary of State; Cameron, Secretary OF the
Treasury; Lincoln, Secretary OF the Interior;
Pettigrew, of South Carolina, Attorney Cen
eral; Bolts, Secretary Of War; Bell, Secre-
tary of the Navy; Baker, of California, Post

The following synopsis Of the McLane-

railroad from the territory of Arizona across
the State Of Sonora to the part of Guaymas,

muncate
D. Inc right to transport goods and mer-

Democratic State Convention.

The Democratic State Central Committee
have called State Convention to meet at
Sacramento, on Thursday, Feb. goth, for the
purpose of selecting delegates to the Presi-
dental Convention at Charleston. The
committee passed resolution, recommend
ing to the several County Committees to
make as a test for voters at the various pri-
mary elections that they should have "voted
for majority Of the regular Democratic
State ticket of which Milton S. Latham was
at the head, at the last general election
Under such test, in this county, there
are some hundreds Of men who have never
acted with the Democratic party, and per-
hans never WILL who would be entitled to as
full participation in our primary elections
as the longest serving and most consistent
Democrat in our ranks. The State Commit
tee does not attempt to bind the County
Committees, it seems, but it is we'll known
this recommendation, emanating from the
source it does, will influence many members
of Committees throughout the State, and
therein will perpetrate great wrong upon
the organization Of the party. The true
test, we think, will be to require OF those
Offering to vote, that "they voted the regn-
lar Democratic State and county ticket. Of
which Milton S. Latham was at the head, at
the last general election"
The intent of this test would be to ascer.
tain that men had come into the Democratic
party in good faith, and shown that faith by
acting in concert with the party at least dur
ine one canvass. If the Democratic party
expects to retain the strength of its organ.i
zation. test less stringent than this, let's in
upon The party horde Of political adven'
turers. deserters, and waits, who will be
curse. instead Of blessing to us.
| We think we can speak for the Central
Committee of Placer county, by saying they
will have nothing to do with the recommen'
dation of the State Committee, but VIII en-
deayor to preserve the integrity OF the party
within the limits of their own Jurisdiction

Senator Leet,

From all parts Of the county we bear from
Democrats an expression Of chagrin and in
dignation at the course pursued by Senator
Leet, in the late Senatorial contest at Sacra-
mento. There may be bakers dozen who
approve Of his action, but we do not know
of more. It is said, with much feeling,
that Mr.. Leet has violated the known and
expressed will Of the Democracy who elected
him, and trampled upon the pledges he made
to the Convention from which he received
his nomination, and therefore, can no lon
ger be considered true representative Of
the Democracy of Placer.
We regret, exceedingly, the course Mr..
Leet has seen fit to pursue, as we were de-
sirous he shonld stand fair among his con
stituency; and we believed he would carry
out the known will Of those who elected
him, without regard to hs own personal pre-
ferences in the matter. But our faith, the
faith Of the gallant party who sustained him
in a hard fight, was not we'll founded
In the very outset Of his representative
career, he has made false step-one that
will consign him to political oblivion. No
man, however popular, talented, or long his
service, that violates the wish and instruc.
tions Of his constituents, can maintain him
self. All experience has demonstrated this,
and Mr.. Leet will find that he is not an ex-
ception to the rule.
