Scarcity of Boilers.

Frank Washington, Zach. Montgomery and
einity, at Excelsior Hall, last Wednesday even
ing. Washington led off with an audience of
about $50. When he closed, many of the Doug
las men withdrew from the hall, leaving less
than 100 men of all parties for Zach to make up
faces at The affair was a most melancholy
fzzle common country school house would
hold every Breckinridger in the hall. The bolt
ers were chop-fallen, and the Republicans, poor
creatures sighed most piteousy, while their
faces grew long and eyes suffused with tears at
the mastery failure of their brother interyen-
tionists. The rail-spitters see now, what they
might have known long time ago, that the
boilers of Shasta county are not numerous
enough to weaken seriously the Democratic
party. Should every Breckinrdger in tais coun-
ty, in his eagerness 30 beat Douglas, go over to
the Republicans and vote for Lincoln, still
Douglas aud Non-intervention would beat the
united Intervention vote more than two hun
dred.
Owing to sickness, and much to our regret,
we could not be present at this gathering, and
hence are compelled to speak of it from hearsay.
We have heard the speech of Col. Washington
spoken very highly of, by men of all parties, as
most able, logical and gentlemanly effort, be-
ing wholly free from everything like claP-trap
or personal vituperation of Douglas. He sought
to win his auditors over to his side by the aid
of argument and reason (sophistical though they
may have been) rather than by appeals to their
passions and prejudices.
Geiger did not attempt to make regular
speech. Zach. Montgomery did-and from
what we have heard of it, we are very sure tha,
he is beneftting the cause of Douglas, if he
makes the same sort of speeches wherever he

New Discovery: Rich Diggings:

CLEAR CREEK, Oct. 3, 1860.
EDITORS COURIER Notwithstanding the po-
litical excitement which pervades the commu-
nifty, a fermentation of a different character now
prevails in this region, almost in your immedi-
ate vicinity, and which appears to engross the
attention of every one-eyen to the exclusion of
political harangues.
miner of the name of Burns, day before
Yesterday took il into his head to prospect in
hill on the west side of Clear Creek running
parallel with the stream. After hours work
or thereabouts, he struck rich gravel, affordng
so cents to the pan. The intelligence spread
with great rapidity, and rush Immediately took
place for claims. You may readily guess how
quickly ground was staked off. There is no
doubt that this locality will very soon be occu-
pied by an energetic mining community. The
groand is rich without doubt. The grand de-
sideratum at present is water. Mr.. Camden,
however, whom you know to be one of the most
energetic, enterprising gentlemen in Shasta
county, will in all probability soon commence
a ditch, capable of affording a sufficient supply
Of the needfGl element. Besides ha?ing the
stamina, he has got the dinero to put any enter
prise in which he may engage through to its
corsummation. This you may rely on.
BUNS first struck the diggings about a mile
south of the Tower House, adjoining what is
known here as the old Bennett claim, but now
owned BY three very worthy hombres, who make
it pay well.

you for publication, thinking that in the turmoil
of politics, something really substantial to con-
template in connection with the material pecu-
mary interests of the county would be kind o.
relief. VERDAD.

Consistent Statesmen.

At Charleston, after the adoption Of The plat
form upon ,chich Douglas no,e stands, nine gentle
men were placed in nomination, to wit: Ste
phen A. Douglas, Hon. R. NJ. T. Hunter. Gene
raj Joseph Lane, Hon. James Guthrie, Hon. An
drew Johnson, Col. Jefferson Davis, Hon. Isaac
Toueeyr Hon. James A. Pearce, and Hon. Dan
iel s. Dickinson. For two days, through fifty
seven ballots, these gentlemen sought the nom-
nation for President. Bear in mind that the
platform udS then mdde-the same that Douglas
now stands on But no nomination was made.
The Convention, says an unknown contempora-
ry, adjourned, aud subsequently met again at
Baltimore. After the boilers had goae out the
Convention proceeded with its business The
candidates voted for were Douglas Breckin-
ridge and Guthrie. Breckenridge received l OF
votes in our regular Convention, after the Fire
eaters and reformed Abohtionists had left
Breckinridge is, nevertheless, now a candidate
against the man ,rho defeated him IN Contention
and Jo Lane, another defeated candidate, is on
the ticket with him. JEFF. Davis, Isaac Toucey,
and D. S. Dickinson, also defeated candidates,
are opposing the man who was nominated over
them, and supporting boiling ticket, upon a
platform framed by that King of the Fire eaters,
William L. Yancey. In other words these men
have violated their implied pledges to support
the nominee Of the National Convention-they
have broken their words of honor-and vet the
Breckinridge papers in this State are using this
evidence of their violated honor as a justifca-
ton for their treason to the Democracy This
is the first time that we have ever known re-
spectacle Democratic papers to justf, boiling by
were boiling tpon the same principle petty
thieves might justify themselves by pointing 10
the fact that there have been distinguished

A ABRECKINHIDGER.--The Sacramento Democrat
says an lrishman was recently naturalized in
that city, whose sponsor sail Pat had been vo-
ting the Democratic ticket for five years. The
Democrat naively remarks that he is now a
Breckinridger. OF course. All that kind vote
for Breckenridge. We have some of the same
sort of Breckinridgers in this county, who have
sworn in their votes for years past, and who
are not citizens now. The Grand Jury will at
tend to them hereafter, most likely.

Renegade Butler and Loring.


These two conspirator boilers were mem
bers of the Cincinnati Convention of 1856. In
the morning just before the Convention met, the
Massachusetts delegation held a meeting, or
ganized and made out their programme for ac-
ton in the Convention. a majority of the
delegation, Butler and Loring among them,
were in favor of the denomination of Franklin
Pierce for President. But the District and
State Conventions that elected them never in
sructed them to cast the vote of the State as a
unit yet in the absence of any authority what
ever, these servile political tricksters and e M
blers tried, with zeal worthy of a better causeI
to force the unit rule upon the delegation. Why
did they do this? Just because Mr.. Buchanan
had few votes in the Massachusetts delegation
that these knaves wanted to stihe down and
huckster away for the benefit of their favorite,
Franklin Pierce
These political vagabonds, Butler and Loring,
are now prowling about over the State of Mas
sachusetts, out of the Democratic party, shiver-
ing in the cold, delivering Yancey secession
speeches wherever anybody will go to hear
them, and while they make almost as bad
faces as Zach. Montgomery did here last Thurs
day evening, they whine and vince over the
unit rule as justly applied in the late National
Democratic Convention, under the express in
structions ofsuch sovereign States of this Union
as demand it. Butler and Loring have become
so depraved and sunk so low down into the
depths of political damnation that they even
appear to think that that just and reasonable
rule as adopted in the late National Democratic
Convention was sufficient excuse for them to
turn traitor, sneak away out of the Convention,
and join the Yancey -Rhett- -Breckinridge dis
union boilers.
