OUR REMNANTS OF THE OLD Po-
LITICAL TRIBES.

LITICAL TRIBES.
Silently and stealthily, almost as return
from the dead, the political fossiliferous re-
mains Of other States and Territories are
coming among us. We think it not strange
in the least that men, and men OF pto'n'-
hence in other States, should feel desire 10
try their forrvnes in some Of our rich mining
ground, but that blatant politicians and I'M
xcrunnlors dcmagugues. whose every motion
heretofore was inflicted upon the public at
;ention, should arrive in our midst nnan-
ouuced, the recipients OF no welcome, seems
20 rs 4 little omnouS Every week in our
neighboring city, Virginia, can we meet one
or two Of these tried-out demagogueS, and
the Lord only can tell where they came from
and at what time. Now, what must DC the
reasonable conclusion, under such very Pc
culiar circumstances Nothing less than
that the old, politically WORKOUT demagogues
Of the " Democratic" persuasion Of other
States and Territories, are irving TO carpet
bag the Young and rising Territory Of Ne
yada. But the stiffness with which they ar
rive among us and start into business, is
VIVA; we do no, like the appearance of; for
suddenly, perhaps, the adder may rise when
fostered into warmth, and sting the friendly
hand which gave it attention. Walking up c
street, in Virginia, We see the law shingle of
some ex-Judgc, or some other eS-othcial and
politician. and the question may be asked
bv the first passcr-bv, when did he come
over: thought he was in the Southern
AMY ?" and turning mp Taylor street, almost
the same may again occur. Why. not only
from California do we receive the great lights
OF Democratic" teachings, but from Kan
sas we have some Of Buchanan's ex-Gov-
ernors-a, least one real. live. moving Gov
erucr from the famous Terri!oryof Kansas
tho some individual who talked so loudly
: " late Constitution when /. was up
r- :, adoption Of the people, before ne had
cy.f :.ld il, as ne so said himself in Virginia
of course urging the people to reject it.
Let Us keep an eve on these politicians, who
would obtain the favor OF the public and then
be;rav our confidence, as they have in many
instances before in other places. We have
it demonstrated clearly enough already tina;
those men have Influenced and do now inau-
eace our elections BY holding the balance Of
power-which they understand how to man
age to perfection.
We have among US again, men, who, in
California, exer;sJ heir best endeavorS on
the stump apd in private, TO unite the Seces
sion with the Union element of the Demo
cratic party, and who in Nevada Territory GU
70 cur Union Conventions with as much SELF
assurance as though they had slways
been the champions OF the Union par
". While we like TO see all of our
fellow-ci,izens occupying good footing in re-
lation 70 cur national troubles, dscency OIL
their part should inpsI them to take a low
seat az our political meetings at first, as self
protection for ourselves should compel
them to be :aken, for 4 season at
Least, on probation. These are health;ul con-
siderationS. and which, If we mistake not,
our cltlzsns WILL VET nave occasion 10 reinem-
Der. We say, that one-half of the Offices dis
tri5uted throughout the Territory, are 6iled
by"Democra,s" in feeling and sentiment, and
If they had vote I, the next Presidential
election, would vote for Democrat" in
preference 70 Mr.. Lincoln. We will not say
positively that these men are really, or desire
TO be, secess:onists but they are not, to
make use Of the mi!dess expression, true
Union men; but rather men who will associ-
ate politically with those who are not Union
men, provided they can make something BY
It. We would warn our good people Of the
dangers that beset them on all sides, and Of
the evil influences that will be brought to per-
vert their loyalty, and to pro note 10 power
the same class OF men that have disgraced
California and other States of the Union.
