good people of Sacramento will make an eggs

august body.
/ CANT SAVE TuEM.-Some of the Republi
cans in this vicinity desire Democrats to Join
them, so to make a Democratic Republican
party. 1t is impossible for Democrats to save
them except by putting them down. Those who
undertake to save them from damnation by
acting with them will fud themselves the losers

Republican party and lose his own soul ?"

Haven't you made slight mistake, some
way, about the party or, possibly, the month ?
Just as though the Democracy would meet in
Dog Days. Isn't it the 9th of July7 Oh,
Lordy VIII you take suthin cooling?
IT is reported that John c. Breckenridge
was captured by the Government troops at
Pittsburg Landing. If that is so why don't
his organization in California give up the
ghost? Do they imagine that Breckinridge's
soul is marching oa p
