THE BRAzEN IMAGE.

How many times, in the innocent age
when we had to take our regular spank
ing from three to seventeen times day,
have we heard about the d" brazen image"
Now, we know that person intimately 1--WE
speak of the brazen image). His name
was Rhodes. At an early age, not having
as yet cut his eye-teeth, and being at the
time troubled with the "yeller-janders,"
also worms, he was christened "Colos-
sus." Now, in our opinion, he should
have been christened "Skeezicks," or
some other appropriate appellation. The
name COLOSSUS conveys the idea of
immense size; and when old Rhodes brat
was born, the idea of talking about size,
and that miserable monkey, was all gas.
Whatever became of that horrible brat,
we have never heard, and Ito use an i'm
proper expression) don't care damn. To
digress a moment from our preceding re-
marks, there is a gentleman at present re-
siding in the neighboring city of Virginia
who is called by his most intimate friends.
"Wm. H. Rhodes" About the matter,
nevertheless, there hangs doubt; from
the fact that when he murders Her
Majesty's English in the newspapers, he
signs himself "Caxton." The latter
named gentleman wrote a letter some time
since to the President of the Humboldt
Democratic Convention. In the 10th
chapter and the 9th verse of that trea-
sonahle rag, you will find these words:
"a Federal fetter is just as CALLING to free
man as the shackles Of a King. Not willing
themselves to submit TO . tyranny which
would crush all mankind out Of the Southern
States, Northern Democrats oppose all COM
pulsion as a weapon inconsistent with free
government"
These words are not to be understood
as having been written by w. II. Rhodes,
the Copper-founder and Bell Hanger, in
IN Virginia; because he states that he is
mot Secessionist." They were written
by the nasty squalling brat whom we
spoke of in the earlier part of this sketch.
He was born at Barnegat, in New Jersey,
and his father was well known on that
beach a. a clam-catcher and land-pirate,
of unblemished reputation. 1t was he that
penned the above piece of sedition. 1t
was not Caxton," of course not.

FOR vICE-PRESIDEST.
L NDR Wv JOHN SON
UNION MASS MEETING AT SILL
YER CITY.

The Union Party of Silver City ant
neighborhood turned out in full force last
night to listen to speech from His En-
eellency, Gov. Nye. At an early hour in
the evening the people began to flock into
town; bonhres were started, and the local
artillery fred grand national salute OF
thirty-six guns. The speakers stand was
erected in front of Chrysopolis Hall. (By
the way-our jolly and liberal friend Mar
tin Reese, Esq, is the presiding genius OF
the Chrysopolis and he knows how 10
keep a hotel.) The Gold Hill Brass Band
was in attendance on the meeting, and en-
Gyened the scene with number of favor
ite airs. Governor Nye was introduced
to the large assemblage, and was received
by an immense outburst of heartfelt ap-
plsuse; indeed, we have az no time during
the present campaign seen speaker more
warmly received by an audience. The
Governor is a noble-looking man on the
stump, and true type Of an orator. His
commanding presence before an audience,
his earnestness, and his readiness to han
die the subject which he undertakes,
makes him equal to any orator that we
have ever seen-and we have seen and
heard good many in our time. On the
occasion Of the meeting last night, it
seemed to US as though every man present
felt that a great and good man stood
before them-a man whose silvered locks
told of many years experience and knowl-
edge in the affairs of our nation; who did
not come to make a youthful, declamatory,
and political speech-but who had come
TO tak and to reason with the people upon
the great and momentous questions of the
preservation of our Government. For
nearly two hours, Governor Nye spoke
TO the people-during which time the
multitude seemed almost Spell-bound by
the immense volume Of language and
heartfelt patriotism which flowed from
his tongue, his hearers only now and then
breaking his speech by irrepressible out
bursts of applause. (Oh, how we regret
ted that we had no shorthand reporter
with us, so that we could have had that
speech for publication, that all our readers
might read it,
After he had completed his speech, three
rousing cheers for Governor Nye were
given, which made the welkin ring, and
the hills of Silver City echoed and re-
echoed them far and near. The Band
struck up that good old air, the "Star
Spangled Banner" and after which, Mr..
W. H. Clagett was introduced and heartily
welcomed. The hour being rather late,
Mr.. Clagett made short, but very good
speech.
The meeting adjourned, with cheers for
Lincoln, Grant, and the Cnion-which
was followed with more firing of guns.
Altogether, it was glorious gathering of
the Union men of Lyon county, and shows
that the hearts of her people are in the
right place on the Union question.

The following letter, which has been
handed to the Enterprise BY citizen of the
Mexican Republic, shows how intimately the
hopes of the two great American republics
are connected:
From the Governor of Sinaloa to Senior Don
Placido Vega, and thence to Raphael Con-
-aies, President Of the Nerican Sanitary
Fund:
DEAR SIR Il send you the within docu-
ment with the sole object of attracting your
attention; and do me the favor Of employing
all legal means among the members Of your
Sanitary Fund, and principally among the
Hispano-Americans, for the election Of Abra-
ham Lincoln and Andrew johnson for Presi-
dent and Vice President Of the United States,
at the election of November the 9Th. We
must try, as there is no salvation but in the
ultimate success of the North of the CONT
nent and to that country alone We must look
for our ultimate prosperity.
Yours, truly, VEGA.
San Francisco, Sept. %, 1864.

MILITARY IN YIReINn.-The several
military organizations of the city, the
Silver City Guards and two companies Of
regulars from Fort Churchill, are in the
city under orders. Governor Nye is also
present, and general impression prevails
that some stirring times may be expected
We are not permitted to express any
opinion as to the cause of all this "Pomp
and circumstance of glorious war" Some
asserting that Major McDowellis expected
in the city; while others are positively
certain that Winnemacca is about to lead
a thousand Of his braves against the
Broom Rangers. P. S.-The Silver City
Guards passed our office at noon to-day,
on their return home. The Guards, under
their gallant Captain, Terry. present a
very fine and soldier-ike appearance.
Long may they wave.

THE UTEs.-A great deal of anxiety has
been felt respecting the disposition Of our
western neighbors, the Utes, in this day Of
general Indian hostility. From Mr.. Witter
we learn that they ure unquestionably friendly
and disposed to remain so. He has recently
seen and conVersed with many of them.
Iney profess strong anxiety to aid the
whites in conquering the Indians of the
plains, hthey can obtain permission to do
SO. Many Mexicans would also Join them
IN such campaign. While we could not
approve OF calling in Their aid just yet, an
emergency may arise when it will become
very advantageous il not positively necessary.
Al any rate their friendship is not to be
despised, but on the contrary such assur-
ances are rather comforting just ut this time.

The SPIRIT OF 0'CoSNELL.-We refer
particularly to an intensely interesting article
from our Dublin correspondent, II seems
that the spirit Of O'Connell is still broodinu
over ireland, and her people come by hun.
dreds Of thousands to built a costly monu-
ment to the great Liberator, whose genius
and eloquence gave luster to his age, whose
might was shaking at the British throne
when he died, and whose voice called back
the sinking glories Of Ireland from oblivion.
The shade Of the giant is disturbed and
distressed that his countrymen in America
are found among the fercest enslavers of a
helpless people, and that so many of them
are arrNyed among the enemies of the only
country to which ireland may look for sue
cor and for strong helping hand to lead her
up out Of the valley of humiliation and
famine. About the same time last year a
meeting Of Irish Nationalist was held on
Slieve-Na-Mon near Dublin, and PROPOSE
ton was made to follow the example Of
Poland. But they recollected that the Irish
people are without arms and, in the inspi.
ration of the historic heights, one of the
orators declared that scythes and pixies might
be turned to good account, forgetting how
little such antique toys could avail against
the Enfield rife, the Armstrong gun, and the
death dealing bomb. We wish the people Of
Ireland God.speed, and hope that the
Druidical fires Of liberty may be kept aglow
on every eminence.-F2a9.

The Registrar General of Scotland, in
his annual report on the population,
comes to the conclusion that the use Of
tobacco or spirits does not shorten the
average life of mankind. 1t is a bully
fact for the Copperheads. Let them not
forget to put their foot on it. We are a
."public adviser" and hate to see anybody
lose a chance. We, therefore, say to the
Copperhead leaders, use your big weapon
(mean whiskey,) freely, and you need
have no fears about retaining your bone
and sinew" until the next election.

NOTABLE FUGITIVE SAcR4MENTANs.-
The Union learns of the whereabouts, in
British Columbia, of several old citizens of
Sacramento, who " left their country for their
country's good" R. C. Gilchrist, sentenced
to prison for life, for shooting man, has been
pardoned. The pardon was doubtless the re-
suit of the efforts of John C. keenan,, at
Victoria, and Len Harris of Sacramento.
Harris obtained, year ago, many influential
names in Sacramento, to petition asking
for Gilchrist's pardon, and Keenan, used his
exertions in the North to secure the object
sought for. 1t is currently believed in the
North that John H. Gass is at Victoria, prac-
ticing law under an assumed name. Vincent
E. Geiger, it is also said, has been resident
Of Victoria for short time, but sailed re-
Gently on British ship for parts unknown.
The story of his experience is that he first
left Tehama county for Arizona, and ad-
vanced to the Southern end Of the State, but
became for some cause afraid to attempt to
cross through Arizona, from the fear that
"Ned Rigg," Colonel of the First Infantry,
California Volunteers, would capture him.
Rigg knew Geiger well, and Geiger it appears
felt afraid Of falling into his hands. Geiger
then returned through the State to Tehama
county, where he spent some time near Nome
Lackee Reservation in recuperating. He
then started for the North, and was more
successful in making his exit than on his
first attempt. He is said to have become
considerably reduced in flesh BY his travels
under difficulties. N
