The Election.

The long political agony is over! LINCOLN is
chosen to preside for the next four years over the
dcstnes OF thirty millions of American freemen.
The Fates which preside over the ballot box have
so ordered, and all good citizens will bow in sub
mission The Yanceyites, Orrtes, Rhettitcs, and
all that lk, may spit fire for time, but the more
sober minded and loyal men OF the cane and cot
ton fields of the hospitable and sunny South,
whose fealiy and patriotism have been so often
tested, will hold these botspurs in check, and all
will go on smoothly, as before. Demagcgues and
patriotic bumpers will now partially subsde-
Lincoln and Hamln, Breckenridge and Lane,
Douglas and johnson and Bell and Everett, will
no longer be the eternal theme of converse, ev-
erywhere and at all times. Men will begin to
think of the every day affairs of lfe-0i theIr
sweethearts, wives and babies, many oil whom
have been sadly neglected during the past few
months of political strife.
All will agree that this has been one of the most
hotly-contested Presidential contests on record
All the passions OF the American people have
been appealed to birth, prejudice, faction and
sectional pride, have all been subservient to the
accomplishment of the ends of party leaders, and
to an extent heretofore unheard-Of in party war
fare Party spirit had attained white heat. and
was fast scOrching up the better feelings of So
cial life. We hope never again to witness a Pres
dcntial contest so heated and so bitter. and be-
eve that all good, conservative citizens will
join us in the sentiment. To differ is natural,
and in such a government as ours there will ev-
er he conflicting policies offered for endorsement
at the ballot box. Let the right OF suffrage be
exercised with dignity becoming freemen-not
like an army Of Goths and Vandals, quarreling
over the spols of modern Rome.
The last Pony brought intelligence that in all
probability every northern State had gone for
Lincoln. What q triumph for the "Rail Split
ter Well may every American feel proud of
his constitution and country. As long as the one
is preserved the other will remain free-the glo-
rous heritage of happy and prosperous people.
Lincoln sprung from the people. From poor,
unfriended boy, he has fought his way, inch by
inch, to his present high and proud position. He
is one of the iron men Of the West-a living,
breathing monument, self-erected to labor, intel
| ligence, enterprise and indOmitable resolve-a
beacon light to honor and fame for every Ameri-
can boy, however humble or poor May bis Pres
idential reign be as prosperous as his life has
been successful.

MACuNE-SEwED HosE.-C Capt John Phlbrook,
Of Miltown, has left at our Office a piece of ma
chine-sewed Hydraulic hose, which is a curiosity
of its kind, and superior, in our opinion, to any
thing of the kind ever used for mining purposes
1t is made on one Of Rice's newly invented lTy-
draulic Hose sewing machines, and sewed with
three seams. Miners who have used it declare
that il is saving of fifty per cent. on the hand
sewed hose, and far more durable Phibrook d
Son, at the mouth of Canon Creek, will supply
the hose much cheaper than the canvass can be
bought and sewed by hand. The sample we have
is made of so Lawrence Duck, the best in the
market. We invite miners to examine the sam.
pie at our office and pass opinion upon it, We
believe its Introduction in hydraulic mining will
be great money and labor saving 10 miners

BADLY FKGHTENED.-JudgeB Bolts, editor OF
the Sacramento Standard, State Printer, ETC.,
says :-"H is beyond doubt that if Lincoln is
elected the Union is dissolced." We hope the terri
BILE catastrophe won't occur just because the
Judge says it will, for be said with equal positive
ness short tine ago that Breckiniidge would

afternoon to canvass the county vote. 1t would

Roots, from his old Hop Yard, thirty miles below
Sacramento, where the sample sack was raised
that took the first premium at the late Fair of the

well to say that purchasers of Roots will be pro-
vided with the proper proportion of each, with
directions for planting, if desired.
The plants from which we offer Roots are five
years old, having been brought from one of the
best Hop Yards in the Atlantic States.
AS the stock of Roots from my Yard is limited
