Our Platform.

We publish, to day, call for County
Convention, for the nomination for County OF
GERS, and for election Of delegates to the Fourth
Of July Convention at Sacramento for the
nomination of State officers. The Platform is
broad as our country, and can contain all class
es Of citizens, save one. The committee put in
it no plank for the foot Of Secessionist or
traitor to rest upon. We warn the people to
guard well the nominations made at their pri
mary meetings Let no man receive credentials
as a delegate to the Convention, who has the
least taint of disuuionism in him and in a
time like this, even neutrality is treason
Make every candidate pledge himself to the
mental reservation or equivocation, and if he
cannot do this, he is not with US, and we do
not need him.
We want none on guard at this time, who
are wavering or doubtful.
A UNION SAvER-On Saturday last Mr.
Kungle of Strawberry Valley, Yuba County
offered the following resolution in the Assem-
bly,:
Resolrcd, by the Assembly, the Senate con-
curing. That the independence of the Con
federate States of America ought to be at
once recognized by the United States Govern
ment. and that all questions between the two
Governments should be settled by negotiation
and treaty
This comes directly from the head and front
of the great and clamorous Union Party of
California who exhibit their love for the Union
and its institutions, by continually pouring out
their vials of vituperaed wrath upon the Gen
eral Government and ali its supporters, and
counseing peace, while armed traitors and
iniurated mobs are gathering around the Ma
tionol Capitol and boldly proclaimng its
speedy downfall. The resolution was supported
in the Assembly by such renowned and devout
Union men as Montgomery, Laspeyre, Sorrel
and =" Oh shame, where is thy blush y

his afinities for his future political abiding
place, and there let him forever dwell "Si-
lence gives consent" is an old adage, and, if
applicable in this case, we must judge from
the profound silence maintained by certain
journals throughout the State, that the above
resolution contains the modus operandi of pre-
Serrmg the Union, entertained by this great
Yancy-U Union party-whose hypocrisy and de
ceit would cause the blush of shame to mantle
