CAPACIoUs CHAIR.-Uncle Charley Roberts
has received a new-arm chair, made to order,
which is placed behind his counter, in his
variety store. 1t is curiosity in its way.
One man in the center, and a crinoline on
either side, could sit in it with ease. If made
water tight and set afoat, it would carry
nearly ton of freight. King Pepin might
have used it for sleeping couch, with his
boots on. But to Uncle Charley it is the
gracious manifestation of special proyi-
dence. 1t is an exact fit, with multiplied in
expressible comforts in entail. He sits in it,
conyerses in it, sleeps in it, dreams in it.
Henceforth benches, with Uncle Charley, are
eschewed. They were the way-side Samar-
atans which offered him ease and repose
when other sources failed. They were, as it
might be, in sailor parlance, safe harbors of
entry, afording ample room for every breadth
of beam. However, the chair is the thing,
when it is roomy enough, and on this head
there can be no complaints made against that
owned by Uncle Charley.

UNITED STATES CIRCUs.-On Monday evening
this institution gave performance in our town
to an audience as large as the pavilion would
conveniently hold. The performers, we were
pleased to see, were men of much better private
character, more genteel, polite and gentlemanly
in their bearing and more intelligent in CONVEX
sation, than men Of their profession usually are.
Their feats were of the dashing and brilliant
kind, such as to excite astonishment and force
admiration. William Aymar's somersaults over
horses, through balloons, and otherwise, startled
every one for their daring, and the comparatively
easy and successful manner in which they were
achieved. The singing of National anthem,
"The Red, White and Blue" during temporary
suspension fthe evolutions of the "grand entry"
was a new and pleasant feature, and one which
received, as it merited, three hearty rounds of
: applause. Throughout, the United States Cir
Gus is very creditable "show," and we are glad
to know that it is meeting with liberal patronage
son its present tour of the State.

S. T. CURTIS, EsQ.-Last week we gave
an extract from private letter addressed to
gentleman of this place, which made
certain statements concerning Samuel T.
Curtis, Esq. The authorship of the extract
alluded to, has been assumed by Mr. J. B.
Low, in second letter, published in the
Nevada Transcript. Quoting the article in
the Press, Mr.. Low says:
"Lest the above should reflect wrongfully
on Mr.. Curtis, take pleasure in stating that
the rumor, so far as relates to the oath of
allegiance, was incorrect. And further, that
from personal interview had with that gen
tleman since the arms were taken from him,
| am satisfied that he entertained no evil de-
signs on our Government, but believing his
mining ground to be in the hands of jumpers
who are daily extracting and appropriatng
the gold, and in the absence of all laws or
even prospect of an organized Territorial
government, Mr.. Curtis procured the arms for
the purpose of retaking his claims. His case,
if he is in the right, is deplorable one, and
calculated to vex a man beyond endurance.
| do not pretend to judge between him and
the opposing party, for personally, | have no
knowledge OF the facts. j. b. LOW.

Curtis:
EDITORS UNION In your issue of the | 9th
inst, you publish correspondence from Vir-
ginia City, in which appears the following ::
''By information given through Caperton, at
Virginia City, by one. Curtis, of Silver City,
the arms in the possession of the Secession
lists were taken from their usual repository
by the time the troops entered our city"
AS by the publication of this statement Of
your correspondent, you have done me an
injustice, ask you to publish the facts of the
case giving rise to yoIT correspondent s
statement, whiGn are as follows:
After the Indian war last year, Captain
John l.. Blackburn, being then United States
Marshal of the Territory, received authority
to collect the missing arms belonging to the
State of California. l received an order
from Captain Blackburn to take any such
arms should find, and hold them subject to
his order, at Silver City, in case of needing
them to enforce an order of Court in an
injunction case of the st. Louis Mining
company, or Wnlcn L am superintendent,
against an armed party of jumpers. About
3 A. NJ, on the morning of the 9Th inst,
Captain Moore, United States Army, with a
company of dragons arrived at Silver City
and presented an order on me from Captain
Blackburn for the guns in my possession,
which | delivered. | am certain Captain
Moore will bear me out when l state that |
threw no impedments in the way to prevent
him discharging his duty, but rather aided
him and had no means of communicating
with the Secessionists of Virginia City (if
such exists) prior to his arrival at that city.

BgaWE have been shown series of res
olutions complimentary to Mr.. Fred a.
Wilder, one of our fellow-townsmen, in the
handwriting of Col. Ellsworth, recently as
sassinated in Virginia. They were passed
by military company of which both were
members, in the town of Rockford, Illinois,
September, 1853. Col. Ellsworth was the
Captain, and Mr.. Wilder First Lieutenant of
the company, and the resolutions were called
forth on the occasion of the resignation by
Mr.. Wilder Of his rank and membership in
the company to come to California. AS q
specimen of chirography the resolutions are
worthy of being seen. The prominent words
are executed In German text, and the balance
in full, round, distinct hand, without any
attempt at fourish-imparting to the whole

beautifully is the work performed. The

DIDN'T NoMINATE.-The State Convention
of secessionists which recently met at Sacra-
mento, adjourned to the Goth of July with
out making nominations. At that time the
present incumbents will probably all be re-
nominated, with the exception of Governor
Downey, who declines, and Thomas Findley,
State Treasurer, who is suspected of having
too strong leaning towards the Union.
These are the only two State officers who
are not of Southern birth. Even the attaches
in the different departments of the State
Government are nearly all Southerners, who,
like their employers, sympathise with the
bastard Confederacy, and go their length in
the support of such measures as may advance
the party interests.
The Convention will have placed its nomi-
nees-when they are made-before the peo-
pie on square, tshat-f footed secession
issue. A rebel Government is openly prefer
red to the Government of the United States.
They must subscribe to the creed that they
are "opposed to the employment of force by
the General Government against the seeded
States for the purpose of compelling obedi-
ence and submission to Federal authority. y
That is the precise language of the platform
The loyal voters of the State will remember
it, and show how much they prize and ap-
preciate it, when the proper time arrives for
them to give expression to their opinion.

HARDLY THE THING.-In this late day and
generation, it is hardly the thing for politicians
TO use the bulletn-board instead of the types, to
call meetings, conventions, etc. That dodge is
entirely behind the spirit of the age. Those who
have taken up estrays and resort to this means
to advertise them, could not make their conduct
defensible before an intelligent Judge, who un-
derstood the spirit of the statute in such cases
made and provided.
