YOUNG MEN.

We like 'em. We are not yet old
enough to talk with a special ~patronizing
tone toward this class of humanity; but
our sprinkle of gray entities us-h we
will-to speak as a complimenting third
party with regard to under-thirtyites
Mentioning the fact that we have an
attachment for young men, we recollect
Paul's words paul, the APOSTLE: 81 have
written unto you, young men, because ye
are strong" That's it. There's a huge
element OF strength in youth. manhood
youth. This is one reason why we are
immensely pleased with our Legislative
ticket, this Fall. All of the candidates
are literally young men-except a couple
of chaps that are of the order Of humanity
that never grow old. This is a young
State, and our great interests are new or
prospective in a great degree, and we don't
want and couldn't tolerate a batch Of old
fogies for Legislators. Now, bring on
your old brains, We crawfshing Copper
heads, and see where this campaign will
leave you. Ha ha! Young America is
Union, and right up and up Union-the
overwhelming majority thereof. If ever
you have a misgiving, sir, as to the con.
tinued success of the Union party in this
county and State, go look among the peo-
pie and note where the boys, the good
boys, the beautiful boys, stand on the
main questions. Do this, o, timorous or
distrus,ful soul, and youth return to your
virtuous couch as much treasured and
cheered as if you'd struck a mine sale in
New York or Philadelphia. Take the
Storey county Union ticket! Can the
Democracy" select such a body Of intel
ligent young men for candidates: Nay,
verify. Democracy" gentlemen, is dy-
ing out with the overhead, and due hall
protested generation. Fact. Democracy
is damned; and it is dying, literally,
with its creature opponents. Fact. Talk
about regeneratins the Democratic
party. Where's your flesh and blood &c
perform the politically regenerating work
upon; You don't expect to recover
freshness to spoiled fowl fruit. Against
nature and her irreversable processes
The bald demons of Copperheadism mus
remain with their idols; but the young
men, even their W sons, have lifted theil
c%ountenances from the earth, have an
nointed their boards with the sweet dew
of Canaan, have filled their horns with
plenty from the store-houses of Freedom
and they are Going Forward, with TIL
spirit Of the Nation and Age. You can
find in the State of Nevada a hundred
men under thirty years of age who car
read and write, who would suffer them
selves to be suspected of voting the Cop
perhead ticket. Things are not goinI
back. "Onward'' is the sound and glori
Gus word on the banners of the victors
Old Time himself has shaken off sack
cloth and ashes of mournful regret at tn
birth Of children Of the past, the traitor
Of our land, and has conspired to make
glad season in our country's life through
the harmonized and irresistible intelli
gence and patriotism Of young men. Anc
if there be one man-lad who reads this
who is inclined TO the path Of modern
Democracy" we appeal to him to a
least take counsel Of his hopeful years
"know of his youth and venerate hi
blood" so far as TO feel and follow hi
own to-day's instinct admonition ; TO
sure we are that 50 doing he, too, will b
among the number and swell the hosts il
the mighty Union army.
Let us have a Central " Young Mems
Union Club of Storey county. Let it b,
organized at once /; that the grand ratiica
ton meetings may be gathered under it
auspices. Come, boys! rally with tn
jubilant and winning Hurrah!
