REPuBncANl REPUBLICAN The Express
raises the old poll parrot cry Of Republican !
Republican +" in speaking of the friends OF
Douglas. That game, to use common eX-
preston, is played out. People laugh at it
There are too many staunch and true South
ern men in favor of Douglas to allow Of the
wolf cry of "Repubheani4m" having any ef
feet in the present canvass. as against the
regular nominees of the Democracy The
Express speaks of Douglas and Broderick
men and papers that went for Baker for Con
gress. Let the galledja jade vince, our withers
are unwrung." No man can point his finger
to the time when this paper or its editor
supported Baker for Congress or for any
thing else

la FORTE, aug IoI"'
EplroR DEMocaAr On this evening (lSth
inst,) we had . glorious Democratic rauhca-
ton meeting in La Porte, some four hundred
persons being present At Z o'clock Mr.
Bavo's brass band ascended the stand aud
PLAYED some very beautiful tunes, alter
which Mr. Is. W. Barnes called the meeting
TO order bv nominating J. X. Barry, ESQ.,
for President. Mr.. Barry came forward, and
after a short, pertinent speech took his seat
amid great enthusiasm The President then
introduced Mr.. Dougherty, of Rowland Flat,
to the audience. Mr.. Dougherty spoke about
one hour and half to an attentive audience,
frequently being disturbed by the bursts of
enthusiasm.
Mr.. j. F. Cowdery, of Downieyllle, next
took the stand, and his speech, though short,
was woll timed, and well received by the
audience.
Mr.. S. f. Pratt was then introduced to the
audience, and followed in one of the most
eloquent and able speeches that have list
ened to for many a day He spoke about
one hour and retired amid enthusiastic ap
plause for himself and Douglas and johnson
Mr. Editor, you may put Sierra county
down as sure for Douglas & johnson by &
handsome majority, although there is some
scribbler writing for the Express from thi
place, who says that the Boilers are sure o
five hundred majority in this end of thu
county. The man who wrote that small
paragraph has certainly very little regarC
for the truth, or else he intends to deceiy
the people away from home.
The Democracy here were never in bette
spirits, They are jubiant in expectation o
glorious victory at the coming election
The Boilers act on the defensive altogether
and look discouraged. feel for them an,
pity such as deserve pity. They knoy
and feel that their doom is sealed.
Yours in haste, REKLAw.

FREs-Two fires occurred in this city
yesterday morning, at about o'clock The
first was in two frame shanties on Virgin AL
ley, between First and second streets. occu-
pied by vagrant Diggers and Kanakas. 1t
was probably set on FIRE 10y some earelessness.
The engines soon put it out. While this fire
was raging, another broke out in g China
wash house, near Fullers livery stable. and
one of the engines ran out a length of hose
and threw water upon IT, Various persons
were also present with buckets, and the con-
1agraion which threatened to be serious
was stopped. The last fire occurred from the
falling ofa campheue lamp in the hands of a
China woman. The efficiency of our most ad-
mirable fire department was well illustrated
OF the occasion. for the fires were in a quar-
Ter extremely dangerous.

upon it in that light Mr. Latham stood on

the State, if the papers are to be relied on
at all, that he was "a friend to Douglas, and
regarded him as q great statesman and sound

declaration. And it will not do, now, to say
that he represented Anti Douglasism straight

caused by mercurlal disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth

above all, by the venereal infection. What,

Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood OF corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plaints but they have far less power to with

which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the

destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,

One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;

To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
Wgorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in

SCHOOL Government.

AS the subject of school government and pun>
ishment, has been matter of some discussion
in this community for some weeks past, it may
not be unimportant to give the rule adopted by
the Board of Education some year or two ago
ties of Teachers" rule 10th reads as follows -
Teachers are expected, in governing their
schools, to address the moral nature of the schol
lar, rather than his physical, and TO resort te
corporal punishment only, when all other means
shall have proved Intellectual. When it becomes
necessary to inAict corporal punishment, it shall
be in such manner and by such MEANS as shall
neither MAIN nor bruise the subject of it and
teachers are strictly enjoined not to strike the
pupil on the head with the hand, or otherwise
n or to turn him into ridicule or injure his self
respect."

wine have been tested in Cincinnati Washing

with the manufacture OF the various kinds OF
wine from the juice of the grape and have been

very general desire in this vicinity to hear him,

the most effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is com
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure of
not only Scrofula, but also those other affec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERUPT1vE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANrHoNY's FIRE,
ROSE, or ERYsIPELAs, PMPLEs, PUsTu1Es,

indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in "tospurity Of the blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

Returned from pixies Peak

Mr. Coleman. who, went from this place to
Pixies Peak, nearly year ago, returned here
a few days since. Mr. Coleman has had a
quartz crushing machine in the mines, but its
power was not sufficient to answer the purpose
fer which it was designed. He is now making
arrangements to take to the mines the coming
sprlng,a more powerful machine-one which will
cost from $4,000 to $4,000. Mr.. Coleman
believes quartz mining will be much more pro
ductive in the country about Pixies Peak than
operations in the diggings.

citizens in respect to onr Public Schools. A
goodly number of persons visited the several de-

good, and should be still more general
