THY PRIMARY ELEcr1oN.-The election
in Gold Hill is passing of quietly, but a
toierably large vote will be polled; the
polls viii not close until seven O'Clock
Two tickets for delegates are in the field !;
one of them is called the Miners Union
Ticket" and contains the following
names: c. Beekwith, John Yandewater,
Eugene Bittner. Jas. Wright, John Bates,
r. Thompson. G.. Rutherford, B. Quigg,
John Lambert, and C. Keiffer. The other
is called the Miners Ticket" and con-
tains the following names; E. McYiear,
G. Rutherford, II. C. Brooke, W. II. H.
Lee, George Plasted, C. L. Booth, J. D.
Culver, John Nelson. John McCurdy, S.
E, Huse. These tickets are also being
voted at American Fiat. We have un-
derstood that up in Virginia the election
is quite spirited, the fight being on the
Sherifaly. They have also been voting
ups there for Delegates to the Territorial
Union Copvention-a matter which has
been entirely overlooked in Gold Hill, I'M
less it is done yet. We have seen one of
the Territorial Convention tickets which
has on it the following names: C.H.Fish,

THE. "FoREIaN ENL1sTrrENT'
BUSINESS.

A certain set of the English "nobiity"
are immensely sympathetic with the rebels,
and since their pet pirate, Semmes, was so
ANONYMOUSLY thrashed, sunk, burnt and
destroyed under their very noses, they are
madden than so many wet hens. They
even get brave enough to tais war once IN
while, but that is all in your eye. John
Bull has had his face slapped, his nose
pulled, and his stern kicked by every
nation in Europe, these half dozen years,
and dare'nt fight anybody. The total
inability of Great Britain to maintain any
thing like respectable contest with any
of the powerful nations of the earth, has
been openly and sorrowfully admitted by
her palmer spoken statesmen hundred
times during the past three years. She
might play pirate like Semmes, and sink
any number Of defenseless merchantmen
on the high seas, but as for invading any
other nation, she couldn't invade Juan
Fernandez. She has rebellion on her
hands in New Zealand now, and at the
last accounts the naked copper-eolored
Maories has thrashed the dog-water out
of the British troops, in manner that the
British press pronounce disgraeeful. "
They would look well fighting troops who
had smelled he'll at Shiloh, Lookout
Mountain, and along the Rappahannock
and Rapidan. "Oh! we've got too far
from Canada, run for your lives, boys,
run 20 would be their fayorite army hymn,
if the " lobster-backs" ever tried Yankee
war. And they know it. They love to
blow and bluster, however, if they do
know that the whole world laughs at
their gas. The only tangible thing, we
believe, that my Lords Clanricarde and
Brougham, and the other bull-headed
beef-eaters can get hold of to talk warike
about is the silly pretense that the United
States Government has employed enlisting
agents IN Ireland.
The most sensible article we have read
upon that subject is from the Philadelphia
Ledger:
"Ifthere are any Union recruiting officers"
says that journal, +" in Ireland, serving our
Government, the remedy is an easy one.
The British Government can arrest and pun
iSh the parties. II they are protected from
punishment by ministerial privileges, they
can be dismissed and sent home. When Sir
John Champion undertook to open recruit
ing Office in New York and Philadelphia, for
troops for the Crimea, the United States Gov
eminent found no difficulty in enforcing its
own neutrality laws. It arrested the agents
engaged in the business and sent Mr.. Cramp-
ton home. It did not buster and say that
this violation Of our laws was a cause of war.
It simply said, Mr.. Champion, you shall not
do it : and took decided measures to prevent
HIM. II Great Britain has any evidence Of
the fact that our Government is recruiting in
Ireland, it can act in the same way. All the
remonstranees Great Britain can make
against Irish emigration to America, will
have no effect so long as Irishmen can better
their condition by coming to America"
That is the whole case, in nutshell.
We see by our telegram of to-day that
Lord Palmerston 90 don't think there is to
be any advantage gained by meddling
with American affairs" His head is
sound.

THE NEWS.

Our dispatches to-day contain nothing
of any great interest, except from the raid
into Pennsylvania and the good news that
McCook was neither killed nor captured.
He made destructive raid, but it cost
him dearly.

proves to have been an error on the part
of our friend Chubbuck at the lighting
shop. The number should have been
stated at 5000.

WHAT'S THs Matter - There are two
daily express lines plying between this city
and Virginia City, n. r., and one daily mail:
and yet we never receive copy Of the Old
PssRe, the Gold Hill Nsws. or the Herald,
until two or three days after they are pub
hshed, and sometimes they are Eve days on
the road. There is something out Of joint
somewhere-but where that is the question.
The fault either lies at the publication Office
or at the Post Office. We viii thank the edi-
tors Of those papers If they viii look into the
matter, and remedy the evil if ii can be done.
