together with all rebels. and rebel sympathi-
zers. and those who resolve in favor Of recog-
nizing the rebel conieieracy, and, as the Ex-
press SAYS Of the Sacramento Union, We simply
insist that both Of those sectional parties shall
confne themselves to the truth when quoting
history" The following proceedings were had
in the South Carolina convention that passed
the secession ordinance. The Express will
hardly object to the evidence of prominent
members of the confederacy its party last year
desired to recognize:
Says M Rhett, in the South Carolina con
vention:
The secession OF South Carolina is not an
event Of day. II is not anything produced
/ by Mr.. Lincoln's election or by the non -execu-
ton Of the fugitive slave law. 1t has been a
matter which has been gathering head for
thirty years"
In the same body the following remarks Of
like tenor were made:
Mr. Parker. Mr.. President, it appears 10
NE, with great Difference to the opinions that
/ have been expressed, that the public mind is
! fully made up to the great occasion that now
awaits Us. 1t is no spasmodic effort that has
come suddenly upon US, but it has been gradu-
ally eliminating for long series of years, and
at last it has come TO that point when we may
say the matter is entirely right.
Mr.. Inglis. Mr.. President, if there is any
gentleman present who wishes to debate this
matter, of course this body will hear him but
as to delay for the purpose of a discussion. l.
for one, am opposed to it. As my friend Mr..
Parker has said, most of Us have had this
matter under consideration for the last twenty
years, and l presume We have by this time
arrived at a decision upon the subject.
Mr.. keitt. Sir, we are performing great
act, which involves not only the stirring pres
ent, but embraces the whole great future Of
ages to come. | have been engaged in this
Z HlONtuleul ever siuce L entered pOlllcal HE,

and content with what will take place to- NOR
row. We have carried the body of this Union
to its last resting place, and now we will drop
the flag over It's grave. After that Is done, |
am ready to adjourn, and leave the remaining
( ceremonies for Tomorrow
All these declarations 90 TO show that an
organized conspiracy has existed for more than
twenty years in South Carolina to dissolve the
Union, and that the modern pretexts are mere
shams.

The Union Democracy generously surren-
dered, last year, every issue but that of main
tanning the Constitutional Government. The
Republicans steadily maintained their partizan
organization. Finding they were likely to be
beaten, their committee concluded to call a
Union convention, and they denounce every
one, as secessiouists, who does not respond to
their Republican call. When opposed by a
Union Democrat, they exclaim What are
you opposing Republicans for ; they are Union
men, If they are Union men, why do they
not act with the Union Democratic party,
which they acknowledge to be right They
remind US of the enraged parent that had
jerked his provoking son across his knee, and
was operating Oh the exposed portion Of the
urchin's person with great vehemence, when
the young one dug into the parental legs with
his yenomous little teeth. Blazes what re

TIE Republicans claim to be an Admins
tratiOn party. They are magnificent liars,
Their party has sought to change the policy Of
the Administration. ever since its policy was
declared by the adoption of the Critteuden
resolution. The President has publicly rebuk
ed the Republican party by three different
references to the Crittendea resolution, while
rejecting the Republican programme, viz: In
rebukiug Fremont, Phelps and Hunter. The
Republican clamor for Union party is made
with the hope of compelling the Government
to adopt the policy Of the Republican party
and should be opposed by every loyal and
patriotic citizen, who really desires to see the
American Government surmount the Difficult
ties now surrounding it. The Government is
combating Republicans as well as rebels, aud
so is the Union Democratic party. The duty
Of loyal and patriotic citizens is to strengthen
the Government by voting the Union Demo
cratic ticket The Republican position is
opposition 70 the policy Of the Government.

The Allies of Secessionists.

The Republican organs are constantly charg-
ing that the Democracy are the allies of the
Secessionists. Let US see who are regarded as
the allies of Secesssionsts by the Union men
of the Border Statas, those noble spirits, who
have so steadily resisted secession and kept
back the war from the Republican States.
We commence with Gov. Andrew johnson,
of Tennessee. In his late speech at Nashville
in that State, be says;
There are two parties in existence who
want dissolution - slavery and a Southern
Confederacy is the hobby Sumner wants to
break up the Government, and so do the Re
publicans generally. They hold that il slavery
survives the Union can not endure. Secession
lists argue that if the Union continues, slavery
is lost. Republicans want no compromise :;
but they regard peaceable secession as a hum
bug. Why? Republicanism is disunion ;
dissolution is secession one is the other-
Both are striving to accomplish the same object.
One thinks it will destroy, the other save,
slavery"
Hon Joseph Holt, of Kentucky, in his
Louisville speech, last summer said
1--WE make no apology for this wicked effort
in the South to destroy the Government. We
grant the necessity of suppressing it; but
Republicanism that produced it, must also be
suppressed. Repubcanism and Secessionism
must be buried in the same political grave
Parson Brownlow, in his Opera, house speech
in Cincinnati few days since, said
II have TO say that two years ago if | had

God-forsaken, hedeserving Disunionists, |
would have marched them to the District of
Columbia, would then have dug a ditch-a
common ditch-and wrapped up their bodies
in gympsum weeds and dog tenne and buried
them there Had this been done then | should
not have been here to night"
The Louisville Democrat, staunch and re-
liable organ of the unconditional Union men of
Kentucky, to whose efforts, in connection with
its able colleague, the Louisville Journal, we
are greatly indebted for the preservation of
that State to the Union, says, in a recent
number
" Let all Kentuckians bear in mind that, in

vote of the Border Slave States you will find
the Northern Democratic vote with them
The Northern Democratic press and the loyal
press of the slave States speak the same Ian
guage.
8" We admit that some of the Republicans in
Congress are conservative, and still more Of
them are so at home but they are constantly
subjected to party pressure and in their eff
forts for wise and moderate policy, they will
have to depend chiefly on their political oppo-
uents TO sustain them. On the other hand the
Democracy of the North are not only sound
for the Union, but for the Union the right
way

THE Marysyille Appeal says: God AL
mighty himself is an aboltionist of the rankest
kind" We would remind the Appeal that,
the only person who ever attempted to dictate
politics to our Heavenly Father, of which his
tory furnishes any account, was banished from
heaven, and chained in hell for thousand
years, for his impiety and impudence. We
think the Appeal has mistaken its great lead
er. Our benefcent Creator made the world in
six days and pronounced it good. The devil
wanted to effect a radical change, and was
sent to hell. The American people made the
present Government after seven years strug-
gle, and pronounced it good The abolitionists

the Republicans have elected all the abolition
lists that ever got office desire to make rad
ical change, and will receive the same term ot

The Appeal is guilty of inexcusable vulgar
ity in its reference to the action of the rebel
County Committee of Yuba. 1t is the second
time that the Appeal has made use of the
same expression. The Appeal ought to be
repudiated by decent people, and kicked out Of
every house claiming responsibility. Whatev-
er political committees may do, there is no
excuse for repetition of pointless libidiuous
vnlgarity. Only an abandoned publication
would thus insult an intelligent and respectable
public. Is the Appeal endeavoriug to deprave
the mind of the community, and to become, not
the glory, but the shame of liberty?

The Marysvie Express. of recent date,
contained a telegraphic dispatch from the East,
one paragraph of which, stated that the fortif-
cations at Yorktown had been abandoned and
the guns destroyed. The paragraph was fur
nshed by correspondent of the New York
Tribune, under date of Fortress Monroe, July
5th. The same dispatch, in the Express. con
tanned another paragraph, under date of Fort
ress Monroe, July Sih, which stated that
Government had placed the notifications at
Yorktown in complete order The same issue
of the Express containing these paragraphs,
editorially mentioned the former ard entirely
ignored the latter. What was the object OF
the Express in thus indorSing the lying CORE
spondent of Republican sheet, and saying
nothing concerning the later news contained in
its dispatch? Was it calculated to Increase
public confidence in the statements Of the Ex-
press? The New York Tribune. Marysvie

The true State Of the Case.

The New York correspondence Of the Sacra-
mento Unionr under date Of June 18th, co.,
tanned in the. Union of July 18th, gives Us,
accidentally or otherwise, the true state and
condition of politics on the Atlantic side, so
far as the fusion Republican Union movement
is concerned 1t Is evidence so direct in favor
Of the position assumed b! the Democracy, to-
wit that the Union movement on the part of
the Republicans, emanated from the radicals,
who could not control the policy of the Ad-
ministration so far as to compel it to adopt
their ultra policy. As the Sacramento Union
is rampant in favor of fusing with the radicals
here in California, it is somewhat surprising
that it did not exclude the political paragraph
from its correspondents letter. Here is what
the Unions correspondent says:
-" Here comes in the big fight between the
radical and conservative Repubs. The radicals
secretly desire to break up the Republican
party, with Us, because it cannot rule it, and
hence are anxious to merge all loyal parties in
new Union organization. The conservatives
refuse to abandon the Republican organization,
and prefer to ALLEVIATE the radicals from Repub.
support rather than 90 to sea Cd a new politi-
cal raft Thus stands the difficulty at this
moment"
This being the case, according to the evil
dence of the fusion organs themselves. what
man who really desires TO sustain the Admin
istration in its declared policy of conducting
the war, can act with the fusionists? Will
they be deceived by the radicals into crowding
the ultra policy of Sumner, Lovejoy & Co,
upon the country? Those engaged in the
-" Administration Union movement, are false
lights in the political horizon. They have
heretofore controlled the Republican organiza-
ton, but have been unable to induce the Ad-
ministration to publicly declare their policy in
conducting the war and expect to bring a
greater pressure to bear, by the organization
of false Union party. They are as much
the enemies of the Administration and the
Government, as the rebels only less open in
their opposition.
Let the people of California repudiate the
chicanery of these sneakiug, radical politicians,
and give the Government thorough, honor
able and manly support, that constitutional
law and order may triumph, over treason, arm
ed rebellion, aud the sinister efforts of ultraiss
who would disregard all law in carrying out
their fanatical designs.

CONGRESS adjourned on Thursday last We
congratulate the country that the war on our
army officers is to cease, except as it will be
urged by the rebels. The Republican Con-
gressional bummers will mingle with the peo-
pie, and, possibly, add a grain or two OF
patriotic sense to their composition. They
have spent eight months in backing and filling
on the fanatical and iDcendiary question, desi-
ring the adoption of tie most ultra measures
as our army advanced, and bowling for the
the Constitution when the army met with a
repulse. The Republican Congress has done
more to strengthen the rebellion, than has the
rebel Congress. 1t has adjourned, thank God.
The Government can now proceed without in,
terruption in putting down the rebellion. We
will wager the Butte RECORD establishment
that, the rebellion will be queled before the
Republican bummers, who compose the great
majority of Congress, can get together in De
cember to aid the rebellion by making war on
our army officers and endeayoriDg to change
