FoRGETFuL.-John r. Mcconnell, the for
getfu Southern Confederacy candidate for

in the streets of Marysville "As Kentucky
goes, so I 60" but attempts to pallate the
statement, by saying that be was in the habit
of conversing loosely, and of forgetting in ff
teen minutes what he had said. II, by any
hocus pocus, be should happen to be elected

How stand the candidates upon the several
county tickets and by what does one claim
the right of precedent over others? The can
didates upon the Secession ticket, from its
head piece, the gentleman from Eastern Vir
ginia. who proclaimed in the Disunion Con-
ventien which nominated him, that if Caifor-
MIA should, at the approaching election. de-
clare in favor of the war policy of the Govern

ticket, would, each and all of them, on the

mitted to them, vote for the Secession of CAL

State, Mcconnell, consider call from the
Constilutial, they would exercise their discre-

all of them, make Union speeches, and while
doing so, permit, and by their silent consent

party, jeff Davis as did two of their nomi

stronghold of the Secession and peace candi :
date for Sheriff W O.. Middleton-yet they
are all Union men! Is not Satan's domain
full Of such Union men? And these Uncn
men claim the right Of precedence over their
competitors, because they are for peace, at the
expense Of the Union-because they prefer to
recognize the Southern rebels as a separate
Confederacy, and thus dismember the Union
and solving the problem that man is unfit for
elf-government-beca the effort of the
people to maintain the Government is going
to cost great amount of treasure, and the
country will be burdened with taxes for years
and because no force should be used by
power that possesses it, to maintain and defend
its property and its honor. Why, even touch
the honor, however slightly, of one Of these
chivalry Union men, aud nothing but blood
can repay the sacrilege but insult their COM
mon country by all means known-by tearing
down and tramping under foot its fag-by
firing upon its ships within its harbors-by
capturing forts in its lawful possession, and
killing its soldiers in so doing-by grasping
by force, the money and property in its consti-
tutional custody, and by taking prisoners her
army on the frontiers, for common defence, as
in Texas-and all Of their chivalric pride of
honor fades, as the morning mists before the
sun. They drop the sword and pistol, they
cast aside the bayonet and gun, and seize
upon the olive branch, and cry peace! But
such peace-so dishonorable, so full of mis-
chief to the future existence of Republican
Government, and so full of necessary war to
maintain it.

A SYMUATHY DoDGE-A false and mali
cious report has been circulated during the
last week, to the effect that Russ johnson, Re
publican candidate for Sheriff. intends with
drawing in favor OF J. D. Pollard, Democratic
candidate for that Office. We are assured that
the report has been traced to the friends of
the Dixie " candidate, Mr.. Middleton, who
started it in the Chico country. for the purpose
of creating sympathy for the sinking fortunes
of their great champion, who, alone, they are
trying to elec; by the most desperate means

BEwARE.-The "Dixietes are concen.
trating all their energies, and bringing every
conceivable influence TO bear upon the election
of their candidate for Sheriff. They have
ceased making the fight for any other officer,
and, by concentration of all their strength,
aided by their inexhaustible store of fraud,
trickery, cheating and double-distilled and rec
tilted essence of hypocricy, they hope to elect
a Sheriff. to form nucleus around which the
emlssares of Pacific Republicism and Seces-
sion can cluster for the next two years. There
is nothing too low down in the mire of politi-
cal warfare to escape a deathIy grip from
their pallid and dying cause Every appliance
that money can procure. or demonacal despe-
ration invent, is thrown into the SCALE Like
the sick man who from the moulten fire called
for " one drop of water to cool his parched
tongue" they cry for one vote for w. o.
Middleton. Beware, voters of Butte county,
that you are not caught and crushed within

MAJOR BowIE.-Fbe Union Democratic
candidate for Attorney General, addressed the
citizens of Or0ville last Tuesday evening.
The Major is the best speaker and most
cogent reasoner that has appeared upon the
stand in oar town drring the present campaign
He showed up the tallacious assumed position
of the Republican orators, that there was no
difference between the Union Democrats and
themselves, except opposition for Office, and
convinced all present that the gulf between
then, was wide and deep, and that all the force
OF the present Administration brought TO bear
upon the Union Democracy of the North,
would prove fruitess to disintegrate that party,
to whom all conservative Democrats South
and West look for solution OF the enigma
presented by the present crisis.
