How IT WoRKs.-The attempt of a cer-
tain class of politicians to foist the negro up
on the peope-socialIy and politically y-does
not seem to work WELL In Sacramento. on
the 4ib inst, the independent parade of the
Firemen was much finer than the one which
admitted negroes into their ranks.
In San Francisco the citizens would not
turn out generally, only about 500 joining in
procession, exclusive Of the negroes and mil
itary. 1t wont work.

Editors HeraM:-I have noticed in the
proceedings of the Union County Conven-
ton. which convened in Auburn on the 9th
of June, the following resolution was adopt
ed by that body:
Resolved, That henceforth the watchword
of american patriotism viii! be, America for
Americans and by Americans, WHICH IN
CLUDES ALL MEN born on native or fon
egn soil, &c.
| AIN informed by Republican friend that
tbe words Il have capitalized them.) (which
includes all men" means the negro as well
as the white man; that he shall take part in
yoteing and governing the country. Now,
my object in writing this communication is,
to ask Messrs. Bradley, Bosquit, Sexton and
Yule, our nominees for the Legislature. if
such is the fact! And futher, if they intend
to support the passage of a law in the next
gislature, if elected, permitting negroes to
vote?
Now, sirs, am strong Union man, but
| do not believe that true Unionsm requires
any such absuldity- neither do | believe that
the Union party will countenance any such
imposition upon white men--who alone
should govern the country. This, is my
opinion, and thank God, there are plenty in
my party who believe as do. If these leg
islative nominees wish our support they must
come out against this monstrous proposition.
You will confer favor on u,e 10y giving
these few lines place in your paper.
A UNION MAN,
But not in tavor of Negro Suffrage, or, any
one Who tayors 1t.

Intention OF the radical portion of the Abo-

State to submit TO negro suffrage. Their
prominent journals have pronounced in favor
of it, and men have been nominated for the
legislature who will urge The passage of a
law comforting the right upon negroes. For
tunately for the good name of the State, in
every county where such men have been
nominated the party has split in twain.
The white men Of this State are not vet
