THE ADDRESS OF THE COMMIT
TEE

In our paper OF tO-udy VIII DC iounu
the published Address Of the " Peoples
Executive Committee" who last winter
bent their whole energies, and successfully,
too, to the defeat of the constitution be-
fore the people. Those who have paid at
tention to public affairs at that tune will
recollect with what earnestness that Com
mittee entered upon and carried out the
objects for which they were appointed.
They saw in the adoption Of State Gov
eminent at that time, the assumption of
burthen too heavy to be borne, and they
succeeded in bringing the people to their
own frame of mind. We differed aiamet-
really from the Committee in our view
upon the question. believing that the diff
ference in the cost of the different forms
Of Government, was but trifing matter
when considered in comparison with the
benefits to accrue from the change. The
complete revulsion of the sentiment of the
Committee upon that important question
is not to be attributed to fckleness, nor
vet to conviction that they were entirely
wrong in their former estimates. The
character of the reasoning in favor of the
adoption of State Government, is the
same now thar it was then; but circum-
stances and conditions have changed since
that time in manner and to degree that
gives force to those reasons that they
did not then possess. We considered the
change at that time matter of good poll
CIV, but we are forced e admit
that even we, its advocates, did not look
upon it in the light Of such a crying neces-
sly as it appears to US now to be. We
regarded the miserable nonentity of
government metl out to us in our Terri
torial position, as not only inadequate to
our necessities, but humiliating to the
self-respect of a free people. 1t has now
become an evil absolutely Undesirable.
We are now crushed out of vitality BY
the form of a government that imposes
upon us set of officials who are respon-
sible nowhere, and removable by nobody.
We are being dragged down to perdition
by milestone. from which none may re-
lease US, save ourselves, and for US there
is but one mode of self-preservation.
This change of circumstances and con-
ditions of things has forced upon the Com
mittee complete change of views as to
the true policy of the people. Their
reasons for their altered policy are set
forth in this address, and we commend
that document to the careful and consider
ate perusal of those who listened to and
guided their actions by the arguments
and policy of the same gentlemen last
winter. We are convinced that they win
share in the conviction of the Committee.

The LATE J. W. PHuLIPs.-0ur read
ers viii doubtless remember the melan-
choly suicide of our townsman, ]. W.
Phillips, at Austin, Reese river. His
wife and two children about two days af-
ter his death. sailed on the steamer from
San Francisco for New York. but entire
" unaware of the sad fate Of the husband
and father, as we have been told by q
gentleman who saw the family safely on
board the vessel. A short time after the
vessel sailed, Mr.. n. P. Sheldon. of Sill
yer city, kind friend Of the family, tele-
graphed to Captain H. H. Welch, of Sy-
racuse, New York, TO convey the unwel-
come news of the death of Mr.. Phillips to
his family on their arrival at New York.
Mr.. Sheldon yesterday received letter
from Capt. WEIGH, in which he gives this
graphic account of his first interview with
Mrs. Phillips.
al found her at French's Hotel. So
confident was her husband of meeting
her in New York, that he directed her to
remain on the steamer until he should
come on board to meet her. So she re-
NAMED on board for nearly twenty-four
hours, and then went to the Hotel. When
I met her she was quite cheerful: little
had she reflected that Man proposes, but
God aisposes;, and still less did she
dream of the very brittle thread by which
the rock was suspended that was
so soon TO crush her. / broke the
terrible tidings to her as delicately and a.
tenderiy as 1 could do it. Oh, Sheldon
it was truly heart-rending. Never again
may I witness scene like unto it. Iron
though may be, am not narble-hearted
What I did for you in the way Of friend
ship, money would not hire me to dc
again"
Captain welch, further states that hi
found Mrs. Philips in quite destitute Cur.
cumstanees, and furnished her with means
70 go to Michigan, where her relatives re-
side. The history of this family, witt
which we have been acquainted for about
seven years, is sad and melancholy one
and embraces many incidents Ofprosperity
and adversity-the common lot of thou
sands who in years past sought the shores
Of the Pacific to participate in golden
dreams, and to rear silver castles in the
air" but ultimately only to be knocked
down, and to be crumbled in the dust, BY
the hand Of Fate. But the picture is sad
one to contemplate, and we viii draw owe,
IL the veil of forgetfulness.

THE NOMINATING CoMuTTER. = The
Peoples Nominating Committee, at their
meeting yesterday, elected w. 81. Blau-

journed to meet at half-past seven o'clock

didates were before the Committee.
Among those who look upon nomina-
ton by this Committee as equivalent to
an election. there is much anxiety as to
the result. We, however, do not look
upon it in that light, as there are several
very strong candidates in the field. both
independent and on the Regular !"
ticket. who will carry heavy vote; and
there are enough candidates for every val
liable Office to make the result nightly
mixed, no matter how strong ticket the
Committee may put in the field.

THE 1r1NER'e nKA0UE AND
poLITIcs.

POL1YlOS.
A,eommunication appears IN this morn
ing's En,uprise. signed IA MNtR,r al
luding TO rumorthat tbs Miners League
win make nominations. or in other words
put separate and exclusive ticket in the
field for support at the coming election.
The respectable and influential body Of
men known as the Miners League"
have, by certain acts, indicated a belief in
the friendly sentiment Of this paper. They
have been Just in their estimate. We
have consistently maintained the justice
Of the object for which that society was
organized. Its ostensihle design, as pro-
claimed by its members and embodied in
It's published articles Of Association. APP
peals not only to the sense of justice i'm
planted in the breast every rightly con-
stitined man, but to the practical judg
ment of every citizen who has the gene
raj welfare and general prosperity of the
country at heart. For this reason, and
not through special friendship or private
interest, we have seen fit to give the asso-
citation the benefit of such influence as
we possess in the community, to the fur
theranee of the ostensible objects for
which the association was formed. If
under these circumstances, those having
influence in the League win listen to our
counsel. with regard to the rumOr Of po-
htieal organization. we shall be brief and
to the point.
AS the Miners League stands at pres
emit, with its sole object, justice and self
protection, it has deep and valuable
sympathy N the breasts of all classes OF
the community, except those directly and
pecuniarily interested in the oppression
and degradation of the miner. So soon,
however, as that League, presuming upon
the fact of its strength, seeks to assume
the prerogatives and functions of a politi-
cal organization, that moment it arrays
itself IN hostility toward the balance
of the community, and raising its
hand against the public viii find the
public hand raised against it. So long as
it occupies the position of band of citi-
zens associated for the purpose of demand
ing only that which is just, it viii be
sustained by the press and people; when
ever it leaves that standpoint and assumes
dictatorship, that hour it will come under
the public ban-and justly too, for it will
have become an evil. Each member Of
that League, has his own position as a
citizen of the commonwealth, and his
voice, like that of every other citizen, has
its weight in the public councils. Let
each one exercise, then, his poli6calrights
in his individual capacity as citizen, in
the ranks of his party, in citizens commit
tees, or Independently, according to the
dictates of his own judgment; but let
every member of the Miners League, who
has the welfare and perpetuity of the As
ISOLATION at heart, who believes that In
Union for Right there is Strength " frown
down every attempt to convert the League
from its legitimate and laudable purpose
into a political machine. This is our
earnest advice to the Miners League; if it
is worth nothing it has cost them nothing.

( TIE NORTHWESTERN CoNFEDERAcY.--A

by the arrest Of its fingleaders at St. Louis.

tablish Government with Val. as Presi-

are endowed with certain inalienable
rights, among which are those Of

The first onset was received and checked.
The battle then commemorate lasted till B
