A Lie Nailed.

In the last weeks issue Of the Signal, an
editorial appeared headed breckenridge
Ta,ics," in which Messrs. Walkup and An
derson are charged with an intention to trade
off their colleagues on the Breckinridge tick
ct. Men of all parties, who knew these gen.
lemen best, treatel the statement as ridicu-
Ious; but as several of the Douglas candid
ates, who have a taste for sensations, seem
inclined to believe they found mares nest
upon which TO base story somewhat of
this character, we will so far notice this
rcorback Of the Signal, as to silence it..
1t seems the chief editor of the Signal, had
nothing to do with the article in question,
and deprecated its appearance; bnt Joe SEQ
qey, that pink of consistency and poitca!
virtue, was the writer.
We are authorized to say BY Messrs.
Walkup and Anderson that the insinnation
in the Signal, and any other charge, BY
whomever or wherever els, made, that they
have intended, requested, intimated or de-
sired to trade votes for themselves is wholly
and unequalifiedy false.
We suppose this complete refutation will
satisfy Mr.. Scobey, as well as Messls. Bul
lock and Gooding, the original discoveries
Of the mares nest. AS the last named
persons asrertained that Mr.. Porter of Do
tan's Bar was authorized by Mr.. Walkup to
trade of Col. Miller in order to secure votes
for himself, we will inform them that Mr.
Porter says the story is an unmitigated
falsehood.
Bullock and Gooding must consider them
sevcr in Strengthened political circumstances,
when they undertake to become the dissem-
inators of such a naked libel. For shame,
gentlemen, we expected better things from
you! Bat keeping bad company, has a
pernicious effect.

Who Compose the Douglas Partys

This is pertinent question, and well
worth the consideration Of every man who
claims to be Democrat. A consistent
Democrat is one who adberes to his party
and its principles through sunshine and
storm-who is never found in league with
its enemies, or attempting to break its power
by deserting its ranks upon every change in
the popular breeze, or upon the detection OF
would be leaders. And it important in
the present contest to cal attention to some
of those who are acting conspicuous part
in the canvass in California, and inquire into
their anecedens. The Douglas party calls
itself the regular Democracy, and who do
we find among its leaders, why Humphrey
Griffith John Conness, John Curry, J. G.
McKibben, Vim. L. Dudley, James Coffroth,
and other State notorietes, and to come down
to our own county, II. Fitzsimmons, j. G.
Ball, j. W. Scobev, j. P. Kavanaugh, and
number of others now active and promi.
nent Douglases who bolted the party in
1858, went out of its organization, and
tried by every means in their power, even to
the fusing with Republicans, to break down
tue Democratic party. This boiling orga-
nizaiion was defeated in '5S and SO, and
then humbly begging to be admitted again
to fellowship at the Democratic State Con
vention in February, they were permitted
again to return, and were scarcely re admit
ted before they deserted Democratic princ-
pies by following off Douglas.
On the other hand who 90 YOU find sup
porting Mr. Breckinridge! Gov. Weller,
Senators Gwin and Latham, Gen Howard,
Judge Thompson, Col. A. 2. Dudley, Zach.
Montgomery, Col. Henly, B. F. Washington,
and a host of other prominent Democrats in
the State who have never wavered for a
moment from Democracy and its prnci pies
always battling within the ranks and never
out Of them, and never in league with an
enemy to injure the party of their faith
And to come to our own county, we refer
to our nominees, and point to them as men
who always stood true, and above the sus-
picion Of treason to their party And beside
these look all over Placer, and see where
the old, staunch, faith ful. reliable Democrats
stand. Almost to a man they are with the
Democracy yet, ardent supporters of Breck-
inridge and Lane.
This is the ditference--the Douglus party
contains every man that ever bolted from
the mooracy--every sore head and rene
gade that was an incubus upon the party
while among the Breckenridge Democracy
there are none bnt those who have ever been
true. From this the undecided voter should
be enabled to decide which ist!e the genuine
Democracy

"Thev Must be Elected" :"

This is an italicised sentence in the last
issue of the Signal, in speakngsof the Doug
las candidates for the county offices. We
remember the use of similar sentence, by
the same writer, in the Placer Press, in. the
campaign Of 1858. We say the same writer
for Joe Scobey, the inevitable and irrepres-
sible boter, Joe-was then the editor of the
Press, the boiling, Anti-Lecompton organ,
as he is now the acknowledged assistant
editor of the Signal Before the election,
in an editorial, Joseph said their candidates
"must and shollbe elected" and to show how
intent his establishment was upon carrying
out this determination, there was printed
in the Placer Press office a lot of Admins
tration tickets with the names of some of
the Douglas Ant-Lecompton candidates upon
it. We have one of these tickets in our
possession yet. AT 'he same time this out
rageous trick was being played, the Press, to
direct attention from itself, was warning
its adherens to look out for bogus tickets,
as the Placer Herald would surely circulate
some. The Press, although crying "stop
thief" with all its might, was the real rogue,
and endeavoring to make good its declara
ton that its candidates "Must and shall
be elected" And when we are again inform
ed by the 'ineviabIe," in the campa On of
80, that the bogus Douglas candidates
"Must be elected" we are reminded of the
old trick, and suspect that Breckinlidge
tickets are being manufactured with Douglas
names upon them. Thereupon we say to all
our friends to keep a sharp look out for
spurious tickets. We are fighting same old
boiling crowd, and new recruits, and the
game they played upon us once, they are
none too good to repeat.

The Eve of Battle.

Democrats OF Placer election day Is dp
on us, Next Tuesday will decide whether
the Democratic banner shall continue to
wave triumphantly over California and in our
own county, orwhether the true Democracy
shall succumb to those who have deserted
the path Of duty, and cast their fortunes
with wayward and ambitious leader, or to
that sectional party whose power now nearly
o'ershadows one-half of the Union. For
ourselves, we have no doubt Of the result
California will be true to herself. and more
than 10000 THOUSAND Democratic fieemen
will cast their sutfrages for our gallant
standard bearers, Breckenridge anil Lane
There is no doubt of th;s--from the most au
thentlc sources we are assured OF his fact; and
it now only remains for Placer County to do
its part in swelling the numbers Of victory
TO day the Breckenridge Democracy have
a plurality Of the vote in the county, and it
is but required of every Democrat to do his
duty on election day TO achieve brilliant
victory. The campaign was commenced
under disatlvantageous circumstances. The
disruption of the National Convention, the
detection of many Democrats from their
old principles, caused many to become dis
heartened; but as the campaign has pro-
gressed, those who were at first undecided
and at loss how to act, have declared for
the nominees upon the platform of the old
/ faith, and many who were frs. lel estray bv
the appearance Of regularity, lave raj lied to
the standard, until to day we are powerful
IN numbers and confident of success. At
no time in our political history has the coun-
| ty been so thoroughly canvassed, or we as well
apprsed of our actual strength. Many of
the precincts have been pollcd, and the
nambers Of the different parties accurately
ascertained; and the result is not only bet
ter than was anticipated, tut shows that we
will carry the county triumphantly if our
friends will do their duty. We know there
| is lively enthusiasm among Breckinridge
naen--we know they are the old backbone,
stand by Democrats of the county, who ex
eseiso an immense Influence ia their se1er
al localities when they go TO work k-and ae
tell them, if they make good fight on
Tuesday next the day is Ours beyond perad
venture.
Democrats always work best when they have
big fight before them, and as the wo,k on
hand is no ehild's play, every man must Go
his duty. Il is aot the Douglas inen we
have to fear--they will be distanced ia the
racs--the RePubicaas are those who will
eoatest the prize of victory with ns.

Douglas on the Power Of Territorial Leg.
;sIotures

~
Senator Douglas while speaking at Clifton
Springs at New York, on the 18th OF Sep
tember, was asked the following question;
"Have the people Of the Territories a
right according to the doctrine OF non'inter-
vention, to abolish or exclude slavery from
the Territory, while in Territorial condl-
tion9"
Mr.. Douglas replied
IF that gentleman had read any one sin
Gle speech that have delivered upon this
subject within the last five years, he would
have found an unequvocal answer to this
question. l have made more than fifty
speeches this very year in which this same
question is answered, and yet political op-
ponents insist on putting that question, for
the purpose oil creating doubt. cannot
believe that there is man in America OF
ordinary intelligence, who does not know
that hold the people of a Territory, while
Territory and during the Territorial con-
dition, may introduce. exclude, abolish, es-
tablish or regulate slavery, just as they please.
Immense applause) In the North and
South have held the same doctrine. Every
where, when | have seen this attempt Of
newspapers and small politicians in renew
ing such questions it has excited in my bo-
som no other feeling than unmtigaed con
tempt for any man who would pretend that
am not wholly any heartily for that doc
trine.
This answer is explicit 1t is the doctrine
of Douglas Freeport speech clearly reitera
ted, that notwithstanding the decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States the
people of the Territories may spit upon.
and treat that decision with contempt. 1t is
"higler law" for the Territories; a dogma
that is repudaled as,spurious Democracy by
the supporters Of Mr.. Breckenridge. 1t is a
doctrine neither founded in justice, good
sense, or law.
