A Republican Sentiment.

The following reasonable expression of oppo-
stion TO the Union and the Constitution is
from the New York Tribune:
Speaking for ourselves. We can honestly say
that for that old Union which was kept in ex-
istence by Southern menaces and Northern
concessions. we have no regrets and no wish
for its reconstruction. Who wants anv Union
which can only be preserved by systematic
wrong and organized political bluntiers? Who
wants any Union which is nothing bat senti
ment 10 laeker Fourth of July oratons withal?
What patriotic organization the Republi-
can institution is, to be sure. Prior 10 the
Bull Run affair. the Tribune was Commander
in-Chief of The army and navy. and threatened
to supersede the President at Washington with
"a Representative man." unless the army was
sent on to Richmond" After that affair
the Tribune got down on its marrow bones.
and promised never 10 interfere again. 1t
should have been kicked out of the mails then
1t is becoming more bold now, and will we
tors 10 the American Constitution and Union.
Fortunately, here in California there is no o5-
legation for any honorable or patriotic man to
remain with the Republican organization. The
Van Dyke resolutions, which have passed the
Senate, declare such parties as the Republi
cans and McConnellites extinct. This will be
objected to by the rabid followers of the New
York Tribune, and the adhereuts Of JEFF Davis;
but the good, honorable and patriotic amongst
them will unite 10 restore the supremacy of the
Constitution, and thus secure return Of peace
and prosperity to the Union.
In New York, last spring, while the Tribune
was talking treason like the above, Greely was
waited upon by an excited but Union loving
populace' ard the cowardly traitors saved their
establishment by raising the flag of our Union.
They are more courageous and reasonable
now.

Marysville Express.
The late Breckenridge, late Mcconnell party,
seeded from the Democratic National orgaui-
za,ion at Charleston They can continue their
Tebellious organization so lorg as they see
proper Sound policy would dictate to reason
able men that they should abandon their or
ganizaiion. as the auti-Lecompton men did in
1860, and unite with the National Democratic
organization. If they do not choose to do
this they can howl on. The National Demo-
cratic PARTY have suffered defeat, may do 50
again. but will never surrender their Constitu-
tioual and national principles for any set of men,
/ We have no hesitation in distinctly declaring
that the late Breckenridge. late Mcconnell
organization can never with our consent enter
/ the Democratic ranks with their platform and
principles which they endorsed last simmer,
opposing the use of force BY the Government TO
sustain the Constitution of our country. Such
a declaration was foul lie upon Democracy as
practised by every former administration where
ther can they enter the Democratic ranks with
platform declaring in favor of the recogni-
tion of the independence of the Southern States.
aud treaty of amity aud peace between them
and the United States Government" Any
dictation on your part-whiie armed with
such a platform, is preposterous. You can
come into the Democratic ranks upon Con
stitutional aud Union platform, like sensible
men who love their country and would have it
respected and honored among the nations of
the earth, or stick to your " anti coercion" and
recognition platform with the stubbornness
of asses. We should be pleased to see every
one sustain with all bis might and intelligence
the laws and Constitution of our country, but
it is great consolation to know that it will
make no difference in the general result, wheih-
er the late Mcdonnell party drop their organi-
cation and join the Democracy. There are
patriots enough to save the country, and per-
nit that little crowd of dictatorial magnants
to do their worst. Respect fer themselves
and for their children who are to succeed them
ought 10 induce them to be patriots instead OF
traitors. But " bile in" Don't be coerced
into the Democratic organization. Commit
suicide first, and thus convince the world that
you consider Mohamet a fool for going to the
mountain because the mountain would not
come to him.
Badinage aside, however, and we will ask
the Express TO give its benighted and deceived
readers the platform adopted by the Democrat
ic State Convention of Rhode Island. That
platform suits us. 1t is the position of the
National Democracy. The opposition to it in
that State will not amount to an issue All
who are Americans at heart will stand by its
declarations. It has none of the vlndictvencss
and fallacies of the Indiana and New Hamp-
shire platforms. viii the Express publish the
Rhode Island platform, together with lis views

SrABBgD-A German named j. II. Jalen,
was seriously cut by his mining partner, on the
opposite side Of the river near Thompsons Flat,
on The evening of the 29th ult. His partner
was German, also and named Henry Buscher.
1t seems that they quarrelled about their mi
ming claims, the latter endeavoring to buy the
former out. The price being too great, Bus
cher seized knife and STABBED Jalen in the

\ THE RAILRoAD.-The prospect of an early
completion Of the Orovie & Marysville Rail
road, is encouraging 10 every well wisher Of
both counties. Chicago is one of the greatest
cities in America, and owes her Importance to
the railroad communications of Illinois, The
road will be in running order by the first Of
January next. The engines are now in San
Francisco, and will be shipped to Marysville
within the next two weeks. The cars are ex-
pccted in San Francisco at any time having
been shipped from New York near four months
since. A portion of the iron for the track, was
shipped in March, and the balance will be sent
on as fast as Coleman's line of clippers car
bring it.
The future prospects of Butte comfy were
never brighter than at the present time. Let
the Central Road be completed from Lincoln

Some people set their affections on a partic-

endeavoring to assume patiotism that it feels

CRME-During the past month. one horrible
murder was committed at Morriss Ravine. and
two attempts at murder have been made in
this county. Such evidence of awless dep7ayi-
ty in our midst is indeed deplorable and it be-
hooves our authorities TO arouse the public
feeling to a more healthy and liberal action
The people of Butte county are not commu-
nifty of murderers, and such an impression
should not be suffered TO go abroad over the
land. If there are bad men in our midst. let
them be fairly and legally tried, and promptly
punished as the law directs. The record Of
crime in this county during the last month, is
shame and disgrace upon our civilization.

he was worsied-whipped again, and again

Fences Ranch, AMI after relating the circum-
stances, informed MIR. Pence that bis wife and
daughters had died since his arrival in this
country, that be bad but two sons. and they
were both in the Union army, aud that he
should hereafter feel it his duty to whip every

were constantly blowing of their ability to
