The Seceders and Boilers held meeting
at San Andreas on the night of the 2lst inst,
to ratify the nomination of Breckinridge and
Lane. A correspondent the Union says:
A. P. Dudley, of gubernatorial aspiration,
Judge Terry, "et id omne, addressed small
corporal's guard of their adherents, after
which three cheers were proposed for Judge
Douglas by some malicious friend of his, and
was responded to with a will, after which a
very feeble effort was made to cheer Breck-
inridge and Lane, but it appeared to be a
very great effort to accomplish it. Now,
this place and vicinity has always been
counted upon as one Of the strong holds OF
the Administration, and if there is any virtue
in signs now shown, very great change in
the minds of men, and if the same change has
been going on in other parts Of this State,
you may safely set it down as sure for Doug
las and johnson in November Mr. Dudley,
| am sorry to say, manifested little bad
temper after the cheers had subsided, telling
the crowd chat if his party was outnumber-
ed at this meeting, he could beat them at the
polls" which l hardly see how it can be
done, unless the Administration has patented
some arrangement since the Baltimore Con-
vention.

The Sonora AGE FOR DoVGLAS-The Sono-
ra Age comes out for Douglas aad johnson,
and says:
From all the information which we can
gather from different parts of the county,
Douglas and Johnson-the regular Baltimore
nominees-will receive the support of the
masses of the Democratic party. In Colum-
bia and jamestown a decided majority have
declared themselves in this way. Tuolumne
has always been true to the party, and will
not now desert the regular organization to
go off with boilers.
J. N. Stone, q delegate to the last Demo-
cratic State nvention, is out in a long COM
municaton in the Age in support of the
regular nominees, and says:
Douglas was nominated by those men,
who with an eye single to the great object
for which they met together, adhered to that
object as paramount to all petty disaffections
until it was accomplished. Breckenridge, on
the other hand, received his nomination from
a inferior minority, boiling and drawing
out of the regular Convention because they
could not rule the majority

AS life's unbending column pours'
Two marshaled hosts are SEEM
Two armies on the trampled shores
THAT death flows back between.
One marches to the drum beats roll
THE wide-mouthed clarion's bray
And bears upon the crimson SCROLL
ssOur glory is to-slay.'
One moves in silence by the stream
With sad, yet watchful'eye',
Calm as the patient planets CLEAN
Z That walks the clouded sky.
Along its front no sabres shlno'
No blood-red pennons wave
Its banner bears the single ihe'
"Our duty is to save"
For those no death bedslingering shade'
At honor's trumpet-call,
With knitted brows and lifted blade,
In Glory's arms they fall.
For these no clashing falchions bright
No stirring battle-cry;
The bIoodless stabber calls by night
Echo answers g Here am ~
For those the sculptor's marble dust
The builders marble piles
The anthems pealing DER their dust
Through long cathedral aisles.
For these the bosom sprinklod turf
That floods the lonely graves
When spring rolls in her sea-green SUIT
In howery foaming waves.
Two paths lead upward from below
And angels wait above.
Who count each burning life-drop's How
Each falling tear of love.
Though from tho Hero shielding breast
Her pulses Freedom drew
Though the white lilies in the croSI
Sprang from that scarlet dow
While Valor's naughty champions wait
Till all their scars are shown
Love walks unchallenged thro' the gaze
To sit beside the Throne
