GAGGED.--Some surprise has been ex-
pressed at the non.appeararce before the
people Of Low, the Abolition candidate
for Governor. Is he ashamed to face the
people whose suffrages he seeks? Is he
convinced that if they should see him
they would vote against him? Is his
stupidity of such a marked character that
he is compelled to remain silent for fear
Of exposing his ignoranceP Is he afraid
to avow his reasonable sentiments be ore
the loyal masses? Or is the runner true
that his friends have gagged him? The
people want to see Low-want to see the
man who meekly wears John Conness
collar. They know Downey and arc
pleased with his appearance and record
and they want to see his opponent.

BEWARE OF FALSE Reports. On the
eve Of an election the people should ex-
erciSe great caution before giving credit
to political rumors. Recollect, reader,
that the telegraph is under the control
the exclusive control-of agents Of the
Administration, and they will send to
California just such reports as will bene-
fit their party. They have done so be-
fore, by order Of Lincoln & Co., and they
will do it again. A party which stole
the private correspondence Of loyal citi-
zens in violation of decency and law, will
not hesitate to forge and circulate reports
against the Democratic party. The Ad,
miniStration has in its employ in this
State four thousand Office holders, who
have received instructions to elect the
Abolition ticket at any sacrifice, and they
will do it if money, threats and lying can
accomplish their object. Don't believe n
word the vilainous hirelings may say.
BEAR in mind, voters OF FL Dorado,
that the Democratic party desire to pre-
serve the whole Constitution and the
whole Union. They are pledged to main
tain the Constitution as it is and TO re-
store the Union as it was-the good old
Union consecr rated by the blood of the
patriots Of the Revolution. Bear in mind,
that the Abolition candidates, Low & Co.,
are working to destroy the old Union and

AS the prospect Of Sugar from the
South decreases, the question Of home
supply grows in Importance. What
can be done, and what ought to be done,
by farmers to supply the home market,
makes it vitality important. In the re-
cent Michigan Convention some new
facts we're elected. They divided cane
into three kinds: 1st Chinese, with
black seeds, growing in prOngs, from
two to seven inches long; End, the Afri.
can, a turtei variety; Sd, Oomseomaa,
or Otahcitau, with heads from seven to
ten inches in length, and from one to
two inches in thickness.
Mr.. Tucker cut off the heads wher
the seeds began to ripen, else the. juice
is drained from the stalk and evaporateC
by the heads in riponing.
Geo. Marger thought the striugen
taste in syrups comes principally from
the socket or base of the leaf, that i
the stalks are stripped of leaves beror,

measure removed. Others agreed will
