AUBURN, SEPTEMBER l6, 1865.
Democratic State Convention.

On tuesday next the Democracy of Cali
iornia will meet in State Convention, a. Sac,
ramenlo, to put in nomination candidate
for the Supreme Beuch, and to make deca
ration of principles in q written PLATFORM
We have no doubt the attendance will be
full from all the large counties of the central
portion Of the State, and the delegates men
who will perform the work in,rusted to them
with an intelligence and care tha, will re.
dound TO the future honor and advancement
OF the party. The result of the recent elec
tion has been so gratifying in its successes
tor the democracy, tha, delegates will come
together with feeling of enthusiasm and
confidence that will be a favorable augury
for harmonious and wise counses, as well as
victory at the election to follow.
The names OF several gentlemen have been
mentioned in connection with the nouinat
,ion Of Supreme Judge, but so far as we are
informed, there i. not one candidate in the
field on his own motion. Neither are dele.
gates pledged or instructed for any caudl.
date, and in consequence the Convention
will meet, and delegates will act untiamne
ed by system of packing or ppe-layng in
the interest ofany man. lhis freedom from
instructions or pledges will enable the Con,
venlion to carefully canvass the merits ni The
men presented for their selecii1n-and the
chore, when made, we feel coufent Will
meet the hearty concurrence and support ol
every Democrat and conservative man in The
Stale.
What is necessary in the nominee is, that
he should be y lawyer If first class ability. !
Of unqneslioned integrity, and having a
State reputation. Locality should not be !
considered moment While Of course it |
is pre- requisite that he should be D-ino-
crai, We do not think he should be selected |
with reference to his activity rs a part,zsn. |
For this oiiire we want the lawyer. and not
the politician. We want a man whose olin
ions and decisions will be the expressions Of
law and fact; and who in no event will TEN
per his decisions TO suit popular whim or
passion. or through motives Of political pol
icy. We have hal enough Of that. Judges
should be fearless and ilnpaiial-snch y
nominee We want and with such can sur
ceed. We have confidence to believe the
Convention will present a candidate with
the above qualifications, SO that All men OF
and insure his election.

The REASON WHY.-'Can you tell me-
said veteran /" us, the other day, why the
Republicans Of wealth ar. SO anxious to have
the negroes vo,tF OF course We could. II
is well known that the democrats, rs soon
as they get into power, intend to tax bonds,
thereby compelling the rich bond holders To
pay their portion of the taxes, instead Of
heap ng all upon the poor men as is now the
ease. By giving the negro vote they ex
psct to control things $" as always run their
own men into Office 1t is time the people
begin to enquire as to the reason why the
masses are taxed so heavily and the 'prvleg.
cd class are permitted to escape.

GF The returns Of the election for mem.
bers Of the Legislature, from the counties OF
the State, are not yet full but enough hss
been received to show large represen alton
Of Democrats and Short Hairs in both
branches-so large, in fact. that if they can
act together, it is possible they can control
the election Of u s. Senator According
TO our figuring there are in the Senate Is
Long Hairs, IL Short Hairs, Democrats,
doubtful, and one vacancy. In the House
there are 90 Democrats elected without a
question, with probability Of there being !
more. The Shor. Hairs have elected from
IL 10 Is. There are 40 members in the
Senate and so in the House, SO that If the
warfare upon the Senatorial question ia 10
continue Among Union party men, it looks
as if the Shor! Hairs have it in their power,
10 prevent tue election Of Sargent, Shaftsr.
or any other Of the Long Hairs mentioned
in connection with the Office.

copper boots would be a good idea, but

KISSING NIGER During the occupa-
ton of Nashville by our army, in 1868, a
young officer on the staff of one of our Gen.
erals, who was temporarily soiourning at the
Zollicoffer House, on High street, one day
stopped before the door of neighboring
house to admire and caress beautiful little
girl. She was fair, bright and active; her
hair was in flowing ringlets, and she was
neatly dressed. Imagine the emotions of our
tender hearted officer when young lady at
the same house remarked to him, with per.
ceptible sneer;
. You seem to be very fond of kissing
niggers.'
GOOD gracious !" was the startled reply.
"you don't call that child niger, do you?'
''Yes, do. She is nothing else."
The officer took a glance again at the child,
and again at the young lady; and as the
child seemed even more fair than the latter,
walked slowly away, rejecting upon some of
the peculiarities" of Southern society.

this mighty scourge of war may speedily
pass away. Yet, if God wills that it con.
tinue, the bondsman's $50 years of unrequi-
ted toll shall be sunk, and until every drop
of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid
by another drawn with the sword. As it
was 5000 years ago; so still it must be said
that the judgment of the Lord is true and
righteous altogether.
With malice towards none, with charity
towards all, with firmness of right as God
gives us to see the right, let us strive on and
finish the work we are in. Let ms care for
him who shall have borne the battle, and for
his widow and his orphans, and do all which
NAV be to achieve and cherish just and
lasting peace among ourselves and among all
nations

The FIRST FoRGER.-For sixty-four years
the Bank of England had circulated its paper

attempt had been made to initiate it. He
who takes the first step in new line of
wrong-doing has more than the simple act to
answer for; and to Richard William Vaughan
a Stafford linen draper, belongs the mean.
choly celebrity of having led the van in this
new phase of crime, in the year 1918. The
records OF his life do not show want, beggary,
or starvation urging him, but simple de.
sire to seem greater than he was. Bv one of
the artists employed-and there were sew
eral engaged on different parts of the notes
the discovery was made. The criminal had
filed them up to the number of twenty, and
deposited them in the hands of young lady
to whom he was attached, as the proof of his
wealth. There is no calculating how much
longer bank notes might have been free from
imitation, had this man not shown with what
ease they might be counferfeited. From this
period forged notes became common.
