Speaking Of the recent movement OF the
working men OF this Territory, the Reese
River ReueilIe says:
The condition and position Of the working
miner in the Territory of Nevada is the most
independent and manly occupied by the la
boring class the world over, and it is in his
power to keep it so. ........, ....,
1t is the rule in political economy that the
price OF labor, as well as other things, is reg
ulated BY the power Of supply and demand
such rule may work great injustice, and
when it is in the power Of labor to set it
aside, without injury to general prosperity,
they are justified in 50 doing.
Such a movement lately took place in Vir-
ginia, which has been quite severely animad-
verted on By the California press, the writers
forgetting that they belong to profession
thar regulates its price for labor BY comOi-
nation the strongest, and by rules the most
arbitrary that eau govern any craft or occupa-
ton. Can these combinations Of printers, or
typographical unions, be said TO have worked
any harm to the employer, employed, or the
public? Instead of injury, the reverse Is
true the laborer is assured OF good pay, the
proprietor, of good work, and the unemploy'
ed, Of assistance when i'll need. Other crafts.
men associate LOT tue purpose VI Regulating
their pay, aud what is due their employer,
and why should not the miner Theirs Is
an occupation requiring toll and skill, and
ever encountering danger, and if any are de-
serving Of good pay and consideration, II Is
the skillful and Industrious miner. We
would not contend that all are deserving
alike. There is vast difference in the
knowledge and capabilities Of miners, and in
most mines outside OF this Territory, dii-
ference in pay is made. This all miners
know, and, although not regarded BY the
miners Of Virginia in their recent demonstra-
ton, would undoubtedly be considered BY
them them when acting as deliberatire
body. To associate in their own protection,
is the laborer's right and duty; but it should
be conducted in proper form, and the rights
OF uthers, of individuals and Of the public
should be carefully considered.

"woE IS ME-ATLANTA."

The San Francisco Gail thus descants
upon the fall of Atlanta and the wailngs
of the Copperheads there:
Atlanta is ours-let not the Rebels re-
ioice! Fort Morgan has fallen-let no Cop
perheAds triumph! Farrsgut has feeeed the
Confederacy Of its ram, Tennessee, has PEN
ned up three john Bull blockade runners,
occupied Fort Morgan, and added another
page to history and the list Of rebel prison
ers. Tell it not in Mobile, publish il not in
the streets Of Richmond, lest the chivalry
paw ffty dollars in southern shinplasters for
a drink of dreadful whisky, lest the daugh-
.ers Of the sacred soil rattle their neck
laces of Yankee bones. The "key Of the
Confederscy" is in the hands Of Sherman,
and with il he will turn back the bolt Of the
rebel lock and swing open the gates Of Dixie.
Oh, ,here is wailing and crashing OF hon.
miny in the backwoods Of Georgia, there is
extra chewing Of the weed IN - ole Virginia"
tobacco amber" flows down the corners OF
Hoods mouth, and a diseased tear trembles
in that blind eve Of JEFF. Davis. 4 wall goes
up from the Mcclellan SympathiZers with
the rebels, for they fear that a peace, but not
the one or kind they pirate about, will come
despite them, and spoil their Presidential
programme. How At heart they lament the
success Of our arms, how the triumphs OF
our brave troops spoil their appetites for
dinner. But it cannot be helped. The great
unterri6ed'' are respondent, for the news
is favorable to the Union. There's weeping
and wailing in the camps Of Vallandigham
and Wood, and lamentation in Mozart Hall,
for the citadel Of Dixie is taken, the Copper
head hopes Of triumph for the rebels is blast
ed. Atlanta is taken.
1t is a circumstance worthy Of note,
that while the CoPperhead meeting was
in full blast at Virginia, on Saturday
night, our extras announcing the capture
of Atlanta were circulated freely among
the crowd and among the speakers, yet
not one of them made the slightest allu-
sion to the matter. II fell upon their spi-
rits like pail, and "Oh no! they never
mentioned it."

Fraudulent VorINe.-rhat there was
fraudulent voting in this county, yester-
day, there is not the shadow of doubt.
In Gold Hill alone there were not less
than three hundred votes more polled
than there were az any other election
before held in the precinct. Where
they came from, no one seems to know,
bu. as they were all Democrats, the public
draw their own inference. As far, how
ever, as the Board Of Judges is concerned,
we do not believe any charge of dishonesty
can attach. We hope that whoever these
dishonest voters were, they will be found
out.

No DRAFT.-The draft did not COM
mence in California on the 9th, and We
are led to suppose that it has been at least
temporarily postponed. In the meantime
volunteers will continue to be received,
and the bounties will be paid as usual,
until orders to the contrary arc received.
Should the draft commence, the payment
Of bounties will cease at once.
