Don't Throw Away Your Votes.

The Bell and Everett party in this State should
initiate the example of their brethren in the
East, and, seeing that they have no possible
chance Of carrying this State for their candi-
dates, vote for the Douglas ticket as the only
way TO prevent the Republicans carrying Cali
tornia, and also for the purpose of assisting in
carrying the election into the House, where
alone Bell will have any chance of an election.
Every man who votes for Bell in this State,
throws his vote away just effectually
as though he cast it for King Kameha-
meha, for the reason that he is not in the
fight in this State. Here the contest is between
Douglas and Lincoln. Ifthey would have their
votes counted against Lincoln, they must give
them to the Douglas ticket Every vote cast
for Bell and Everett and, indeed, every vote cast
Breckinridge, will in effect count one for Lin
coln-because neither are really in the fight,
and ifDouglas Goes not carry the State Lincoln
will. The same argument applies in the contest
for Assemblyman for this county. Mr.. SAKE is
very worthy young man, and has abundance
of ability to represent this county in the Assem-
bly,, but he stands not the slightest possible show
of an election. If every Bell in the county
and every Breckenridge man in the county were
to vote for him, we do not think he would be
elected. Why not, then, cast your votes where
they will count, or why refuse to participate in
the Sight for Assemblyman? Are you opposed
to the re- election of DR.. Gwin? Then you
must vote for White, for he is pledged TO vote
against him, while Mr.. Bass will be forced to
vote for him, in the event that the Breckenridge
Legislative Senatorial caucus nominates him.
Bell men, this is no time to throw away your
votes. This no time to vote for az Pluribus
Unum," and sing pens to the American flag in
concert with the screams of the American eagle
This is not the time to indulge in " elttering
generalities" which only please the ear aud
tickle the fancy. No. 1t is the time to do
Let your votes count. They may save the State
from Lincoln, if given to Douglas, and Califor-
MIA may save the country from the calamity of
a Republican Presidential success. The man
who throws bis vote away in such contest,
commits crime against his country

Our Next Assemblyman.

We have no more doubt of the reelection of
that lager beer and ''tarantua juice las Weeks
very happily names chain lightning whisky will
suffer on that day at the hands of the free and
enlightened American citizens
And why should he not be returned? Was
he not " faithful to his trust last winter? Ex-
anime his record. Do you find his vote re-
corded in favor Of any obnoxious or thieving
bill? On the contrary, we know that the dob
by members" in calculating the chances of any
bill to rake" the Treasury, always set down
the name of White as certainly, inevitably in the
negative. Did he not oppose the Bulkhead Bill?
In short, citizens of Shasta, can you put your
finger on single act of his, while representing
you in the Assembly, that is worthy of serious
disapfroval? Not one, not one. Have his en-
emies made any charges against him, and sus-
tanned them by any evidence worthy of notice
If they have, we have not been SO fortunate as
to learn of them.
True District Attorney Mix has said that Mr.
White cannot show a tax receipt. But Mr.. Mix
therefore has small amount of taxes to pay
in fact, incurs but few debts of any kind, either
to Government or individuals-aH of which.
however he liqaidates just as fast as he can. Mr.
Mix, also, by Implication, in asserting that Mr.
Bass, if elected, will reduce the farmers taxes,
charges that Mr.. White will pursue a course
unfriendly to the farming interest Mr.. Mix,
however, has never yet exposed Mr.. Bass plan
for reducing the farmers taxes Neither has
Mr.. Bass. What is the wonderful plan? Will
the District Attorney not give the people some
idea of the bill for the reduction of the far
mers taxes, which Mr. Bass, if elected, will
introduce into the Assembly? Pohl Our very
worthy and gentlemanly District Attorney feels
Z" kind o keerlessly" reckIess-feels that Breck-
inrdgeism is in 4 desperate condition in this
ceunty-and that now if never before, is a time
lor romaneing. Confne yourselves to the IA
ked, unyaEaished truth, however, and never a
one of You can say word derogatory to John
White or his record
Mr.. White is honest and capable He is a
true Democrat. He is anti-Gwin, anti-Chinese,
ahu-bulkhead, anti-Seceder, and for the Union.
Let no Democrat fail TO vote for him.

The Chinese Question.

| We have not attempted to use this eeestion il
| this canvass. We learn, however, that, OF
Thursday night, at Whiskytown, Mcssrs. Bass
and Curtss raised it against Mr.. White. o
course it was their privilege to do so. If Messrs
Bass and Curtiss sympathize against the anti
Chinese position of the great body of the mi.
ners of this county, Why it is a privilege they
have in this free country.
We arc informed that they represented Mr.
White as being too ardent an anti-Chinese man
They said that in the Legislature last winter
he declared he would take up arms against
them! Here is what Mr. White said:
And as a working man. careful and jealous al
all times of the interests of the class to which
belong, am unwilling that by our laws we
should longer be forced into this unholy CON-
petition for the means of living, with this worse
than slave population. These men are the
peers of any of us in all that it takes to make
the man. They will lose nothing if compared
with any equal body in point OF general intel
ligence, love for the union of these States, and a
perfect knowledge Of their rights as mem bers OF
free Government and, knowing their rights,
they dare and will maintain them against COO
lyism or any other system that would thus de-
grade them. They are right; and if you, gen.
tlemen, refuse to grant them relief, their own
good right aims viii do the work, and may God
favor theml
We know these sentiments were most heartily
approved by all anti Chinese sympathsers.-
Hon. Isaac Hare and the Shasta Herald, both
good Breckenridge authority, approved them.
What say the Breckinridge miners of Mid
die Greek, Texas Servings and Horsetown to this
charge against their champion, John White?
WHAT is A TRUE DEMocRAT I've have al
ways been taught to believe that true Demo-
crat is one who always stands by his party,
whether its nominees please him or not. In
supporting his party and its principles, he loses
sight of the personal status of the nominees,
looking upon them as mere temporary agents or
instruments. Such Democrat is Stephen \.
Douglas, the " foremost man OF all this yves
term world" Said he in 1858, when the Ad-
mnistraton had united with the Republicans
to secure his defeat:
81 stand by the Democratic organization
yield obedience to its usages, and support its
regular nominees"
That is the language of a true Democrat, and
it give lucid and concise definition of the term
true Democrat" Yet every day we are dis
gusted with the declaration from men who
are now boiling and who have been in the hab-
it of boiling regular nominations for years, that
Douglas is not true Democrat

JUST So.-The organ of the Mariposa Breck-
inridgers, the Gazette, says:
There are many Breckenridge men, ourselves
among the number, who had rather, as things
stand now, vote for Lincoln than douglas.
There, you old Democrat, in the Breckenridge
ranks, what do you think of that?
Milton s. Latham, in two speeches and one
letter, declared that Lincoln was preferable to
Douglas. Old Democrat, what do you think of
that?
Vince Geiger, Il. Dudley, Zach. Montgomery
all Breckenridge candidates for Elector-and
dozens of Breckinrldge leaders besides, assert
that they would not have voted for Douglas
even if he had been unanimously nominated at
Charleston. Now if he had been thus nominated,
of course there would have been NO secession
no other candidates really in the fight save
Douglas and Lincoln. And yet these Breckin-
ridge leaders tell you that even in that case they
would not have voted for Douglas Who would
they have voted for then? For Bell? But thai
would have been throwing their votes away up
on q man who then, with an undivided Democ-
racy, would not really have been in the fight
have counted one for the Republican. And yet
this, or what is still worse, voting directly for
Abe Lincoln, is what these false leaders of the
Democracy say they would have done if the
great Democratic party, in National Convention,
had unanimously nominated Douglas. Will any
Democrat follow such leaders?

A TERRIBLE REBUKE.-The Black Republicans
unwittingly administered terrible rebuke to
Col. Baker, while delivering his reject speech in
San Francisco. We extract from the Union s
report. 1t will be observed that his calling
Oregon my country" provoked the most rip
roarious laughter and merriment among his San
Francisco friends. They knew well that, if the
contemplate and corrupt Oregon Legislature
had not elected him to the United States Sem
ate, he would have again returned to San Fran
cisco to live. Hence the exceeding mirthful-
ness of his friends. No doubt the Colonel ac-
companied the words "my country" with an
exceedingly mrth- provoking shrug of the
shoulders, leer, or wink of the eye. Or perhaps
he thrust his tongue into one of his cheeks after
the fashion of the" funny man" in the theatres
In no other way can the excessive laughter of
the San Francisco Blacks be accounted for
ain my country, where our hospitality
[great laughter and applause, which interrupted
the speakerl- in my country renewed laugh
ter and cheers, causing another long pause =

Will not that make every proud and honor
able Oregonian hang his head with sorrow and
blush for shame?

A Model Japnpess Younr lady

A face Of classical beauty, according to
Japanese notions, combined with great mod
esty of expression, bllck hair, turned up and
ornamented with long gold pins and scarlet
Grape flowers, an outer robe Of the most cost
ly silk, emhroid cred in gold, and confined
at the waist by a scarf upon which the high
est female art had been expended in ornament
and tied in a large bow behind, the ends
flowing over long train formed by seven
or eightsilk petticoats, each longer and rich
er than the other. A sailor may pry no
further into the mysteries of female fnery.-
She must be accomplished in music, embroidS
cry, singing, and above ell, skillfhlly prepar-
ing verses for the delectation Of her future
lord. Duty, bundle of keys, weekly ac-
counts, and good housewiiery, are all very
well. They are expected-the Japanese gen.
tleman requires all that; but he wishes
nay, insists upon the marriage yoke beng
entwined with roses, and padded with the
softest silk-it must not chafe; II it does, of
he goes to his club, or, what is nearly as bad,
his teahouse. The law allows him to do so,
aud is he not lord of the land? The conse-
quence is, that japanese ladies are very ac-
comp, ,ished, very beautiful, and bear high
characters in all that constitutes charming
women; and their admirers, touched with
their many attractions, declare in Eastern
metaphor, that for such love as theirs the
world were indeed well lost.-CdPtGin SheT-

The State Commissioner of Common
Schools has addressed a circular to County
Auditors, respecting the returns of reports Of
the school enumeration, which embodies the
following information for the parties inter-
ested, viz:
What penalties does the School Law i'm
pose for neglecting 70 make the report which
it requires, and have these penalties been ex-
acted in practice under the lRw2
Answer-In case the directors in any sub
district shall fail to take and return the emu
meration required, the expense Of taSing the
same, may be recovered from them IN a civil
action, before any Court having Jurisdiction
in such matters.
If school teachers neglect to make the re-
ports required Of them, they forfeit the full
amount Of their salaries. If Boards Of Edu-
cation and Auditor fail 70 make the proper
returns, their townships and counties cannot
lawfully share any portion Of the State school
/ funds; but these officers are held responsible
/ for the amounts which would have been ap-
portioned to their respective townships and
counties, had the proper reports been render
ed. 1See sections 8, l8 and AZ.
| Section 40 declares that in case the County
Auditor shall fail, from any cause, TO make
return of the abstract as aforesaid, it shall be
/ the duty of the County Commissioners TO de-
duct, for every such failure from the annual
salary, or allowance made to the Auditor fol
his services, the sum Of fifty dollars.
The law is dccidad and emphatic in forbid
ding that funds be apporhJned to such town
