EayH PAINFUL ACCIDENT TO a CHILD
Yesterday morning about nine o'clock, Il
most painful accident happened on Main
street, which will result in the death of
child of Thos. Parker, OF Congress Hall.
The little fellow, who is not quite three
years old, saw an OK cart coming down
Main street near his fathers residence, aud
in his childish glce ran out into the street
with Il stick and attempted 10 strike one of
the oxen. In doing so he fell upon his
back aud one of the cart wheels passed
over his body, brnisng his arm and cut
ting, or rather crushing 81 passage into the
abdomen, producing most frightrul
wound The child was still living last
evening, but no hopes are entertained of
his recovery.

B6s" SEcEssIoHIsTs By NATuRE-Tak
notice that whenever you find a snob or
funky-male or female-yOu find n seces-
sionist. There seems to be sort of cleo
tive affinity that draws the species towards
the thing. One encounters at times speci-
mems in society-brainless creatures, who,
unable to feel what there is noble aud dig
niied in sharing the identity of a great
nation, drivel out their feeble and idiotic
sneers, and think il a line aristOcratic thing
to be a secessionist. These miserable
toadies are infinitely more offensive than
out-and-o traitors.
The above, which we clip from an ex-
shange, lis not only so, but also" 1t is
the best and briefest statement of the way
secession runs in Wheeling, that coulG
have been given. They "think it fine,
aristocratic thing to hc IL seecssionist. =
That's it, Some miserable, vulgar funk
les of this town have, by becoming seces-
sionists, gained an entrance into - class of
society which they could not have gained
in any other way. The "good society"
aforesaid, in its misery and loneliness, was
glad to receive anybody into its circle who
would sympathize with it, and set of de-
testAble toadies were willing to turn trail
tors for the poor privilege of clinging to
and fawaing about the skirts of played
out" Goldfish aristocracy. These fellows
think they are secessionists, but they are
nothing in the world but the meanest kind
of flunkies.

THE COUNTY 1ICKET.

Above will be found the names of the
candidates selected by the Union Demo-
cratic Convention of this county, on Satur-
day last. 1t is hardly necessary to inform
our readers that we shall cordially support
the nominees, and use every exertion, and
whatever influence we may possess, for the
success of the entire ticket. We do not
deem II necessary to give an extended no.
tice Of the several candidates, as they are
ell old residents Of the county, and we'll
known to our citizens. Mr.. Caldwell, the
candidate for District Judge, has resided ia
the county some eight or nine years, enjoys
an extensive practice. is gentleman of
unimpeachable integrity, in whem the peo-
pie may safely FepOse confidence.
Mr.. johnson, the nominee for Senator, is
a gantleman' Of sound, practical sense, of
good ability and business habits, flrm in bis
convictions Of right, and unconditiOnally
for the Union. He served ono term as
County Supervisor, in 1864, and was the
DeuOcratie candidate for Senator in 1856,
the year the Know NOthings swept the
county. lie has resided for many years at
North San Juan, one of the most important
mining districts Of the county, and enjoys
the unlimited ConHdence of those who know
him best
The candidates for the Assembly are also
old aud permanent citizens of the county,
true Union men, and will make faithful
and efficient representatives. Mr.. Eastman
s4rVed In the Assembly during the last term,
aud bis course met the appreciation of a
large majority of his constituents.
Mr.. Chas. Kent was candidate for Sher-
III two years ago, on the anti Lecompton
ticket. and though defeated with his party,
bad several hundred votes more than the
candidates on the State ticket. He is pop.
ular with the people, and we do not think
he can be beaten again.
AT. Layton, The candidate for Clerk, is
AZ enteTprislng and. successful quartz miner
"f Grass Valley, has served one term as
County Supervisor, and is in every respect
qualified for the position for which be is
now candidate.
Mr.. Everett, the nominee for Treasurer,
'S the present Supervisor for the Third Dis
t'iot. a position be has creditably 6lled for
nearly four years. He is hone't and capable.
Nc. Hawley. candidate for District Attor.
ney. ia good lawyer, true Union man.
aud believes in the application of coersve

Mssars Hussey Thompson and Gamble,
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-07-02

the nominees for Collector, Recorder aud
Surveyor, we have known for many years,
and can safely recommend them as qualified
for the positions and We doubt not will
make Efficient officers.
We have but little acquaintance with
Messrs. Leary. Burns and Pope, the other
candidates. They were recommended by
their own delegations as worthy and capa-
BILE gentlemen. The Office of Assessor is u
very important one, aud TO discharge the
duties properly requires thorough and en-
ergetc business man. Mr.. Leary has been
engaged in business for some years in Eu-
reka township, aud his friends inform us be
is just the man for the position.

Tue BATTLE AT GREAT BETHEL.-The last
Pony brings full particulars of the engage
ment at Great Bethel, in which the Federal
troops were Iepulsed aud driven back. The
action commenced at eleven O'Clock on the
night Of June sth, and continued three
hours. The loss on the part of the Govern
ment forces was much less than at first re-
ported. According to the first accounts
thirty were killed and a hundred wounded.
1t appears, however, that there we're but
fourteen killed and forty-dve wounded,
upon our side. Among the killed are Major
Winthrop, aid to General Butler, and Lieut..
CREDIBLE, of the regular army. The night
was very dark, which may account for the
small number of casualties.

THE battle OF HAMPTON. In our last
was published an item copied from the
Richmond Dispatch, Of May 9th, stating
in effect that battle had occurred at
Hampton, near Fortress Monroe, on the
morning of May 26th. in which seven hum
dred Government troops we're reported
killed, and fifty rebels killed and wounded.
The report, it appears, was published in
other Southern papers, aud we have heard
the opinion expressed that snch battle
really occurred. and that the particulars
were suppressed by the Government. Every
person who has any idea of the number aud
activity of newspaper reporters, at The seat
Of war, must know that il would be !mpOs
sible for the Government to suppress all
mention of battle in which between seven
and eight hundred men were killed. III
several New York papers, received by the
last steamer, will be found letters dated at
Fortress Monroe, on the 26th, 9th and 28th
of May, and no allusion is made to even a
skirmish. much less heavy battle. The
"battle of Hampton" was reported to have
taken place some two or three weeks pro
vions to the repulse of the Federal troops
at Great Bethel, consequently it could not
have been an exaggerated account Of that
affair.
