The Union Democratic Ticket.

From all parts of our State, we have recei-
we'd news of the nominations Of Seeding Con-
ventions; many indorsng the platform long
since made by that Convention, under the guild
ance Of Bolts, Heydenfeldt, Terry & Co., held
at Sacramento City ; and those not doing so
in express words, refrained, from policy, as did
the Secession Convention Of our county. They
cannot fall back upon the resolutions got up
before the meeting Of the State Secession Con-
vention, for it repudiated them altogether, but
the same delegates from our county continued
in the late adjourned Convention, taking with
them, the last time, new set OF resolutions
we presume more satisfactory to the known
predictions aud prejudices of the leading
spirits of Secession in our State who ere fond
l., but, we opine, hopeessly anticipating the
triumph of anarchy in our young and loyal
State. Can those men in our county, some Of
whom were in the State Convention of the
Secessionists and are candidates here on our
County ticket. claim, with any degree Of sin
cerity, that they are true Union men? Yet
they do so claim. But by your acts and your
company shall ye be judged.
The ticket we present 10 the people of the
State and county, is composed of undoubted
Union men, against whom there is not breath
Of suspicion men fully competent and well
qualified for the Offices to which they are
named and they stand upon State and coun-
ty platforms in which there are no discordant
ideas, or conflicting sentiments Of national du-
ty, and upon which, all honest and true patriots
may stand and battle for the success of or
national honor and the perpetuaton of our
free and benefcent institutions. founded upon
the great principle of selfgovernmeut. There
may be local pfejudices against some of our
State candidates, but the ticket, as a whole,
is a good and reliable one, and is possessed of
less objections than those Of any of our oppo-
nents Our doctrines are clearly and distinct
ly announced Opposition to the right of
State Secession, peaceable or forcible oppo-
stion to State allegiance predominating over,
! or being concurrent with, National allegiance;
opposition to rebels and traitors to tie Gov
ernment wherever found opposition to all
dupicity in candidates for office-tbey must
carry the flag of the whole Union, and keep
step to its music in favor of firm and hearty
support of the Government, and maintenance
of the Constitution in favor of coercion
/ against all rebels and traitors to our country,
and its Constitutional Government, and in fa-
vor of those men, whom we know will prove
true to these doctrines. Our County ticket is
! composed of our best Union men-free from
local and sectional prejudice-and would make
a great improvement on the score of loyal
! officers.
In these times, the people should look well
to the men whom they would elevate to power.
They should be far above the breath of sus-
picion on the present crisis, which is to test
the strength of the Government, aud the wis
| dom Of our fathers in its formation
