Pearl Miniatures-A Card.

We see a Card in this paper, signed A. s.
Morse, stating that he was the first to in
troduce the above style of Portraiture in
this city-carefully evading the fact that
he engaged me to teach his gallery the
prOcess-and that the "Pearl Miniature"
was named by me, thereby giving the pub
lie the idea that the production was his.
Similar pictures were made several years
ago, but could not be worked successfully.
The special formula / published and sold,
or rather gave the said Morse Che did not
pay according taagreement) does the work
right. So much for his falsehood, and "try-
ing to deceive the public"
When making the pictures in his gallery,
1 noticed the public generally liked the
plain or slightly colored prints much better
than great many of his water color daubs.
He knows, or should know, that an unvar-
nished colodion film is not as permanent as
one vanished. The public can appreciate
who is the humbug and "trying to deceive"

DEMOCRATIC STATE PLATFORM,

Reaolved, That we sincerely rejoice in the ces-
sation Of war and the return Of peace throu ghout
our whole country; and we trust that the momen
tous lessons OF the past four years will inspire
among all our fellow citizens greater reverence
for constitutional obligations, and those friendly
and fraternal relations between the people of all
the States. which are the most solid guarantee
for the perpetuity Of the Union.
Resolved. That the Democracy of Cnliiorni..
will iu the future. as in the past, give cordial
support TO the National Administration in the
discharge Of all its constitutional functions, and
most especially in times Of great national peril;
that 10 the face Of the manifold difficulties aud
embarrassments resulting from the late war; the
Democratic party will not withhold its support
from the policy Of the Administration so far Us
tie same tends to secure the rights and liberties
ef the States and of their citizens.
Resolved, That upon every ground Of justice
and policy to the white people OF the country, as
we'll as OF humanity to the negro themselves, the
Democratic party s infexibly opposed to negro
suffrage, and its inevitable consequence, the po-
litical and social equality OF the negro. in every
torn, and especially to the unnatural and revo-
lutionary scheme for .hrusting universal suffrage.
by action OF Congress, upon the negroes OF the
Southern States
Resolved. That the welfare of California de-
nand. imperatively, that her mining interests
should be developed and fostered and her peo
pie are in the same degree opposed 10 any system
for the sule or taxation of her mines.
Resolved that the whole history Of California
is . triumphant vindcation OF her State policy OF
gold and silver circulating medium; and that
any change in this respect would be disastrous in
the extreme that unwritten contracts for work
labor and services should by law, in all cases, be
enforced in gold and silver COIN
Resolved, That the Monroe doctrine is an es-
Genital part OF the policy OF The Democratic party
and OF the American people.
Resolved That when the civil authority ia in
full operation there is neither warrant in the
Constitution or laws, or even pretext 10 any
supposed necessity Of State. for trials by military
courts, or arrests by military power. And that

able under the provisions Of the Constitution.

Modern Improyemeuts!"

A procession Of working men, with the
garb Of returned soldiers, paraded the streets
of New York one day last week, carrying a
banner with the following inscriptions
"Our last occupation was the destruction
of the rebellion and the establishment Of
the Union with all the modern improve,
ments!"
The New York Day Book thus epitomisss
these improvements:
EY- A debt of three or four thousand mil.
lions of dolars
EY- Taxes upon everything we eat, drink,
taste, or smell!
EF Three or four millions Of lazy, idle.
non producing negroes!
EB- Cotton shirtings, fifty cents per yard!
E1- Coffee, fifty cents per pound!
EE Sugar, twenty to twenty-five cents per
pVnd!
EE Tea, one dollar and fifty cents per ID.
re- Butter, thirty five and sixty cents per
pound!
EE Beet. twenty-five cents per 10.
re- 800. 900 uniaxed Nobility grinding the
life out OF working men that they may
roll in luxury!
EE Swarms OF tax gatherers, more numer-
Gus than the lice of Egypt, prying into
every mans business, and eating out the
substance of the people!
H0- Provost MarshaIs, dressed in a little
brief authority, turning their inexorable
wheel of DEATH while the poor wife and
terror. stricken children stand tremblingly
by?
E1- Military Commissions, with their retn'
ue of pimps, spies, informers and perjurers!
EE- Elections carried at the point Of the
bayonet!
E7- Ballot boxes overlhrown!
Es,- Shoulder-Straps in the Judges Bench!
Ex- Arbitrary arrests!
Efs- Suppression Of Newspapers!
EBr Denial of free speech!
All these, and many more of the same
Sort are modern improvements" and, final
ly, Es- working men parad,ng the streets
with banners, begging for work, is another
"modern Improvement"
Would that We had back the old Union
without any of these additions which four
years war has left us. We would willingly
dispense with all these "modern improve.

DIED.

In Auburn, on Tuesday. September 26th DR..
Henry Hubbard, OF congestion OF the brain, in
the 42nd year OF his age.
With elings Of sorrow we record the death
Of DR.. Hubbard. 1t seems but yesterday that we
saw him in vigor and robust health, and to all
appearance having the promise of as long life rs
any that we see around u.s. Suddenly he was
laid upon bed Of sickness; but yet not with
such symptoms as to alarm himsolf or friends
But the ways Of Providence are inscru;able. In
sidious disease soon attacked the lifc-spring of
the strong man, and he closed his eyes in death.
The announcement sent thrill of pain to our
out the county. The funeral obseques took
place on Thursday, and were conducted by Rev.
Adam McA lister, of the Episcopal Church The
remains were attended to the grave by large
concourse Of citizens-while business houses
were generally closed throughout the afternoon.
DR.. Hubbard wasa native of Killing Conn,
but emigrated to California from Centreville.
Rhode Island, in the early days OF the gold ex-
element and located in what is now Auburn
(then called Woods Dry Dgginss) about the
year 1850. In common with the custom oI the
majority Of those who sought the mines at that
period, he commenced as miner, and welded
the pick and shovel for some time. He subse-
quently engaged in the practice of his profession
as well as in merchandising, in which he was
quite successful. For the past ten years in con-
nection with Messrs. Hall & Allen, he had been
engaged in the banking and express business. and
by method, prudence and industry had acquired
considerable wealth.
Although pioneer Californian, DR.. Hubbard
did not fall into the rowing wastciul habits that
men were so prone to follow in the early times
but remained rs physician, merchant and banker
upon the spot where be first struck pick as
miner. lie was a man Of modest and unobrusve
manners aud kindly feelings that acquired him
the respect and confidence of large circle OF
friends. and his ielow-cilizens generally. In his
death his family y have lost kind and indulgent
husband and father. and the community Il good
and excellent citizen. His death is sincerely re.
GREETED by all.

Important Land Decision


A very important decision respecting the
price of reserved government land sections
lying along the line of the Union Pacific
Railroad has just transpred in the disposal
OF case involving homestead entry at
Junction City, Kansas, on one Of the GOV.
ernment reservations above alluded to, upon
which the question arose AS to the rate per
acre at which such sections should be held.
The Homestead Law allows one hundred and
sixty acres to each settler of land held at
one dollar and twenty-five cents an acre, or
eighty acres Of land held at two dollars aud
fifty cents per acre. The homestead party
in the above case applied to take one hun.
dred and sixty acres Of the section reserved
to the government upon the line Of railroad
alluded to. The Commissioner of the Gem
era Land Office rejected the application,
upon the ground that those tracts not being
subject to pre- emption at sum less than
two dollars and fifty cents per acre, were
double the amount that the applicant could
acquire under the Homestead act Of The goth
of May, 1862. Secretary Harlan, of the
Interior Department, af;er thorough exam
ination of the whole matter, rendered his
decision on the 4th inst, affirming in the
following language the judgment of the
Commissioners The act entitled ian act to
extend pre-emplion rights to certain persons
therein mentioned" approved March 3, 1853
provides that the pre.empton laws Of the
United States, as they now exist, be, and
they are hereby extended over the alternate
sections Of public lands reserved 10 the gov
ernment along 1.-The line Of all railroads in
the United States, whenever public lands
have been or may bs granted BY act of Con
gress. The reserved sections along the line
OF The Pacific Railroad must be treated
within the meaning of this act. Being re-
galded as subject to preempton, the qres-
ton arises at what price may they he pur'
chased? The proviso in the above act de
cIares that the price TO be paid shall. in all
cases, be two dollars and fifty cents per acre
or such other minimum price as is now fixed
by law or may be designated on land here.
after granted" he price of the reserved
section is to be two dollars and hftv cents
per acre unless changed by the prize fixed, OF
to BE- fixed, bv law on the granted sections
In this Congress has not provided for any
established price upon the granted section.

The ATLANTIC CABLE - CAUSE OF THE
BREAK.-A ST. Johns, Newfoundland, dis.
patch of Aug. IS, furnishes further interest,
ing details concerning the disaster to the
Atlantic telegraph cable aud the subsequent
efforts to recover it. The breaking occurred
about haIfpast twelve o'clock in the after
noon of the I'd instant, at point where the
water was 5000 yards deep, after over 200
miles of the cable had been paid out, in con-
sequence Of its becoming injured by chaing
on the stern of the ship while rehauling a
portion of it on board the Great Eastern to
remove another defect in the insulation
which had been discovered. After losing i,
it was grappled three times, being on one
OF the occasions brought to within 1900
yards of the waters surface: but the weight
was too much for the graphing rope. which
each time broke and dropped the cable. The
last attempt 10 raise it was on the lllh,
when, not meeting with success buoy was
placed over the spot where it was lost, and
the Great Eastern sailed for ENGLAND. and
her consorts, the Terrible and Gala,ea, for
Saint Johns.

TAxING THE MINEs.-Frr years, says the
Union Democrat, "D-mocrs,ic newspapers
and speakers have labored to convince the
miners OF California lha, the party in power
are hostile to their interests, and that it was
the intention to levy heavy tax on the
mines of this Stale. During the last cam
paign in this county the people were warned
of this repeatedly. But Democrats were not
believed. Their warning was called an elec'
tioneering Dodge. Black Republicans term
ed it a copprrhead Is-a sIander upon our
henifcent Government. Now how is this?
The election is over-the enemies of Demo-
cracy have triumphed-and the blow has
fallen. The miners in the different camps
are summarily informed that they must pay
mining license Of ten dollars each! Also,
that the cash must be paid within ten days,
on pain Of heavy fine aud Imprisonment.
We hear OF vas. amount Of Indignation in
different camps. and talk about meetings,
protests, etc. But it won't do. They will
doubtless have to pay the black republican
fiddler"
