The Democracy in Sierra County.

1.-THE following letter is private one, but
contains news which justifies its publica-
ton,
ST. LOUIS, July 23d, 1860.
The Democracy here are up and doing.
Last Saturday evening we bad an enthusiastic
ratification meeting of the regular nominees
of the party, and fired thirty-three guns for
Douglas and johnson.
Democrats here who endorse the action of
the Seceders, and pretend to be for Breckin-
ridge and Lane, are like "Ongels' visits, few
and far between"
Your neighbor of the Express will have a
glorious time before it gets through. 1t has
indorsed Gwin and his Disunion speech, and
follows after strange gods. 1T is welded to
its idols, let it alone"
IRON present indications we shall carry
this county by large vote for Douglas and
johnson, as the regular nominees ofthe party
Yours truly, w.

The DOUGLAS MEETING IN LOUISVILLE. Ky
The Louisville journal of July sth, has the
following:
The Douglas meeting at the Court House
last night, was very imposing demonstra-
tion. The crowd was immense, though not
unmixed, and enthusiastic, though scarcely
harmonious. Yet the occasion passed Off
without any violent outbreak. The feeling
OF decorum happily repressed all harsher
feelings. The meeting was addressed by Col.
Gibson, Of Indiana. Major Flournoy of Arkan
sas, and Captain Graves, of this State. Very
much to our regret, we were unable to hear
the speakers distinctly, but their remarks
were warmly received The speech of Mai
Flournoy, the central effort Of the occasion.
was greeted with especial applause. We heard
1t spoken of III terms Of admiration. Alto,
gether, the demonstration last night was de-
cidedly encouraging to the Douglas men in
Kentucky. The spirit evinced was full of
selt-reance, and full of defiance to the Breck
inridge men. There is clearly no surrender
and no compromise in the Douglas men of
Louisville at least. And if the accounts we
have heard in the course of the past two or
three days from the interior are true or half
true, their brethren in the State at large are
quite as firm.

No COMPROMISE WITH BoLTEEs-We call
especial attention to the proclamation of the
Democratic National Executive Committee
in another column, which we copy from the
Union. 1t will be seen that the Committee
deny and scOrn any compromise with the
Boilers, whether by running joint electoral
ticket or by any other method If the Bolt
ers choose to vote for the regular nominees of
the party, they can do so if not let them
vote their own ticket. 1t cannot be expected
'hat the Democratic party will go hunting
around after seceders. 1t is expected that
every man worthy the name of Democrat
will sustain the action of the National organi.
zaton. As for those who leave the party, it
makes but little difference whether they Join
the Black Republicans of the North or the
Disunionists of the South. They are equally
unworthy the sympathy of the Democracy,
and the Democracy want nothing at all TO
do with them.

CRAWLING BAcK.-A few time-servers left the
Democratic party when the news reached Cali
fornia that the Baltimore Convention had bursted
up, and two nominations had been made. They
declared for Douglas, probably thinking that
would be the popular side. They now begin to
find that the Democracy will remain steadfast by
their colors, and they will be crawling back be-
fore long. They did not look before they leaped
butjumped in the dark.-Erpress.
Cannon! This statement is all based
upon the authority of the Black Republican
Elector, Weeks. who came up here and made
speech, the other night. He stated that
those men who had expressed themselves at
the meeting at Sacramento as being in favor
OF Douglas, were backing down and prepar-
ing to go over to Breckenridge. At any
rate, he so reported.
Well, we have the authority of well
known politician and reliable gentleman Just
from Sacramento for declaring that there is
no truth in the statement whatever Every
man who declared himself at that meeting,
isas firmly for Douglas as it is possible for any
man to be, and exhibits no inclination what.
ever to recede from the position. They all
believe that they ure right, and are defiant
in their attitude.
Let the Express go on. if it feels like it,
and quote Republican authority to the end
of the chapter. Democrats don't place much
reliance on that kind of authority
N. B.-Be it understood that the Express
calls siding with Douglas leariHg the Demo-
cratic party. Oh, what cheek

suppOsitiOn that the Douglas party in this

inridge side needed helping, in order to make
a more complete division in the Democratic

more powerful than the other, it is afraid the
Breckenridge side may lose heart and give up
the contest. So it begins now to blow

Til eCattIe Disease Cnused by Immature
Food,

Th eCattIe Disease Caused by Immature
Food.
There is an interesting article in the Jour
nal d. Agriculture Pratique, from the pen of
Gustaye Hamoir, in which several facts are
brought forward to show that cattle feeding on
immature food are liable to piem0 pneum0nia-
the cattle disease which has caused such
panic during the present summer in Massa.
Chusetts.
He states that in seasons favorable to rank
growth of the sugar beet-and when, conse-
quently, the beet is efficient in sugar-catte
iced on the pulp OF the beets are subject to this
disease. But lie has found that if the pulp is
steamed in such way that the steam carries
of the volatile maters-al3hool, acetic acid,
and essential oils-it is then healthy food.
Several experiments are mentioned which
seem to prove the truth of this idea.
There can be no doubt that immature food
of any kind is unhealthy. The leaves of
turnips, which analysis shows to contain a
much larger percentage Of nitrogen than the
pulps, are well known to be less nutritious
than gthe pulps, and have tendency to cause
sCours in sheep and cattle eating them. In
MIR. loves experiment on sheep this fact was
brought out in a very striking manner. Sheep
fed on turnips MANFRED with superphosphate
OF lime did well and gave fair increase, while
sheep fed On the same kind of turnips and
grown in the same field, and fed out at the
same time, but which were dressed with
large quantity Of ammonia not only did not
increase in weight but actually lost in flesh,
and were SO evidently lifted that it was nee
essary to discontinue the experiment. Analy-
sis showed these turnips to contain a much
higher percentage of nitrogen than those
grown with the superphosphate of lime-in
other words, they were deficient in carbonac-
eous matter. The ammonia caused them to
continue growing late in the fall, and they
were, when gathered, far from being perfectly
matured.
Sugar beets, heavily dressed with ammonia.
cal manures, are we'll known to be deficient in
sugar, and the manufacturers of beetroot SUI
gar do not like excessively heavy crops. Mr.
HONOR states that the years when the crops
of beets were unusually heavy were the years
when the cattle disease most prevailed, and
we have no doubt it was caused by the beets
being immature. We see no doubt that i'm.
mature grass, or that grown on low, wet land,
would also be injurious.
