THEIR support of Lincoln is unequivocal-
their Republican principles, as laid down in
the platform, are acknowledged by the Re-
publican press. The Marysville Appeal ac-
knowledges this much, but is very much dis
satisfied that they persist in keeping up a
separate organization. We agree with the
Appeal in regard to this Inconsistency
Sierra Citizen.
OF course you do. You want the Demo-
Gratis of Southern birth to join hands with
the Secessionists, and the Appeal wants the
Democrats of Northern birth to join the Re-
publican party. You will both labor during
Democratic party ought to be wiped out of
existence The Republicans can no more
acknowledge" away our principles, than
Secessionists can come up to them.

| FALSE RUMoR CoNTRADIcrED. Reports cir
culated ir some of the papers, calling in ques-
tion the loyalty of the commandant of the
Mare Island Navy Yard, are without foun-
dation. The Alta publishes and endorses
the following:
EDlrons Alta: Some of the papers of this
city, and Sacramento also, are giving the
impression to the public that Capt. William
II. Gardiner. Commandant of the Navy Yard
at Mare Island, is a Secessionist; or, if not
openly one, is a sympathizer with the South
in their rebellion against the Government of
the United States.
This is doing the greatest injustice to as
loyal an officer as serves under the American
flag. The writer is personally cogpizant of
bis sentiments, and knows that no truer Union
man can be anywhere found JUsTITIA

THE NATIONAL DEMOCRACY is that union of
citizens which embraces the whole Union of
States in the basis and tendency of its princi-
pies, fosters no factional spirit, chershes no
sectional aim, and promulgates no issue in
compatible with the necessities of the Re
public.
The above motto stands at the head of the
Sierra Citizens columns. That paper should
either take it down, or cease to foster "fac.
tional spirit and to cherish Sectional aim. ),
If we have been rightly informed, the issue
made by the Secessionists now in rebellion
against the Government, is, whether their
mock government shall live, or the United
States Government die. We regard the issue
as incompatible with the necessities of the
Republic"

THE inordnate ambition of Mr.. Conness
coupled with his want Of talent, and vascil-
Iating ha5itS to court the popular breeze, will
prove a sufficient drawback on the success of
his party to insure that of the Republican
ticket.-Datch Fiat Enquirer.
The most bitter enemies John Conness has
in the State will laugh at such stuff as the
above. His stubbornness is the great oIjec-
tion they have to him. Nothing could be
more absurd than the allusion to his "want
of talent unless, it might be, to accuse the
Enquirer of ever treating its readers to any
thing containing common sense.

DRoIL MoyEMENrs.-The Butte county
Breckinridgers, made up of Unicn men and
Secessionists, are playing some queer prahks
Fearing to put forth a county ticket, they
have resorted to one of those peculiar insti-
tutions, a Peoples Convention. The Chair
man of their County Committee has been
dominated for Sheriff by this no-party affair,
and the Record says that the Breckinridgers
will in Convention, endorse the ticket, which
they themselves have made up through the
agency Of Peoples Convention" These
so-caled Union Conventions are humbug,
and will deceive nobody.

TIE New STATE GoyERNMENT IN VIRGINIA
The Old Dominion is again in good working
order, so far as regards a State Government
recognizing Federal obligations. The trail
tors having taken possession Of Lctcher and
his Administration, and, 10y Secession ordi-
nance Of a State Convention, having formally
declared themselves in a state of revolution
against the Nation of which Virginia is a
part, the NationaiiStS have organized new
State Government which is now in good
working order, as the following dispatch
shows
WHEELING, July 3d.-Both houses of the
Legislature organized yesterday, It, Governor
Polsley took the chair in the Senate, and
Daniel Frost, of Jackson was elected Speaker
of the House. Gov. Pierponts message was
sent to both bodies last night, together with
official documents from Washington, officially
recognizing the new Government The mes
sage is very able document and gives un-
usual satisfaction. II is complete review of
the secession of Virginia and Of the causes
leading to the formation of the present Gov
ernment, ard recommends an energetic co
operation with the Federal Government
GEORGE 5. EvaNs.-Our nominee for Clerk
of the Supreme Court, Mr.. Geo. S. Evans, Of
Sonora, is characterized by the unscrupulous
organ of the Republican party, as a "Seces-
sionist" We trust that the Times will take
back that word. Mr.. Evans is of Southern
birth and education but he is instinctively Il
loyal citizen and feels no sympathy with Sc
cession folly. In the last Presidential can
vass he was supporter of Mr.. Douglas
When the Democratic County Committee of
Tuolumne. of which he was a member, sought
to prescribe a Brecknridse test for the ro-
ter of that county, he, with other members,
withdrew, and protested against their action.
He was subquenuy elected Chairman of the
Douglas County Committee and he still holds
that honorable position. There is not truer
Democrat or more loyal friend Of the Union
in the State than George S Evans. We may
be permtle ed to add. that the editor Of the
Republican organ is the rival Of Mr.. Evan:

has just been received that Cortina, with six hun
drcd hleXicans, had crossed the Rio Grande at

Americans! He threatens to make an attack on
this place. The Mexicans, though, in Matamoras,
it Is understood, are against the invasion. Ed
wards and Tomlinson's companies, at Ringgold
Barracks, have started in pursuit
The news from Galveston, arrived here this night,
has created the most profound excitement in all
circles, The 500 U. S. troops that were lying at
tho mouth of the river awaiting transportation, are
| expected upon us.
| AH the men have been put to repairing old Fort
Brown.
Brazos Santiago is to be evacuated. Sixty-two
| artillery horses leave here at day break in the
morning for Point Isabel, for the guns in Bra
EOS, and all other movable property, if the U. S
troops from the steamer Atlantic have not arrived
| and taken them from the company stationed there,
under Capt. Powers.
War is upon u.s. and the Rio Grande regiment
has three foes to contend with. We need men
our provisions are short. With strong deter
mination to stand to post and stick to the cause,
we will be able to successfully defend the fort and

when those that we have out, only by the over
