Clear the Decks.

The late campaigns have shown that unless the
Union party works unitedly and in harmony the
government of the country will fall into the
hands of the party who favored dissolution of
the States, opposed the emancipation of the
slaves and now advocates the reputation of
debt contracted to save the Republic from de-
struction, and who, under plea of retrenchment,
desire to saddle the debt, incurred by the rebel
lious States on the people. Unless the Union
Republican party of California, and of the coun-
try, have concluded to trust the administration
of national affairs to the foes of freedom, and
willing that Southern States shall be permitted
to reconstruct themselves in their own way, and
in manner agreeable to their own wishes, the
jealousies engendered by rival individuals as
suming to be leaders, must not any longer be
permitted to exist in the organization and oper-
ate against the principles of freedom and pro-
gress Unless local issues are kept separate
from great and important national principles,
the objects for which so many patriots fought
and died must inevitably be lost The result of
the recent elections has afforded ample proof to
Union that they cannot afford to fight
against each other and at the same time battle
the common foe. 1t is vain to think of success
without unity of action. 1t is criminal to waste
their vigor in squabbling among themselves with
full consciousness that defeat of the principles
of truth and justice must follow, and the nation
oe controlled by its enemies and loyal Congress
be overwhelmed in disgrace. If Union men de-
sire to escape the responsibility of hurling pat
riots from positions of honor ignoring the laws
OF Congress, paying the Confederate bonds, re-
warding the Presidents treachery, and over
whelming the country with disgrace, let them
give up their chickering's, give less thought to
side issues, such as whisky bills and Sunday
laws, aiding the triumph of shame, falsehood
and treachery, and turn their minds more clearly
and vigorously into the channel Of duty, rebuke
the infamies of q recreant President, snub the
arrogance of unreconstructed and designing men
with hands red with blood and hearts black with
treason, and keep in view and vigorously sustain
the great principles in vindication of which
so many brave Union soldiers fell on the field OF
battle-Stockfon Independent.

81 Thank YOU"

1t is but simple sentence, It's true, yet where
is there another more frequently used? We hear
it at all times and in all places, spoken in every
variety of tone and feeling. In the halls of
pleasure, in the public thoroughfares, and in the
abode of sorrow and want, jest and detection.
Sometimes in heartfelt earnestness, at others it
seems but cold, meaningless phrase, sort of
token merely of formal politeness. A silver
haired grand-sire totters along by the aid of his
oaken staff. Some kindly disposed friend per-
forms for him some act of galantry or favor,
and feels we'll repaid by the earnest &C. thank
you" which never fails to fall from the old
mans lips. We hear it, too, in the sweet lisping
voice of the little child, who reaches out his lit
tie dimpled hand for some proffered gift. How
bright his eye, how he smiles, as in childish SIM
plicity he says, sThank you" Yet sweeter
nobler, far, do those simple words appear, when
fervently uttered amid scenes of trial, when acts
of kindness and love are fully appreciated, ani
the heart seems to vbrate through the tremulou

The Lord their banner and shield.
Lift high the granite shaft for all

Their country's star-gem'd flag their pail,
Nations wall their requiem
O Lord and shall they live again,
These bones, the seed of crimson strife
Thy spirit breathes upon these slain,
And they shall thrill with endless life.
In living hope, then, commit

New YoRK.-The telegraph reports a Copper
head majority in New York city of 60, 900. Last
wear the city gave Hoffman, for Governor, Al,
ls5 majority, and Fenton was elected over Hoff-
man by 1879. This majority appears to be
nearly neutralized in Yew York city, which re-
ports gain of 1855. The Copperhead gain in
the interior must therefore be about l6 900. The
Unionists no doubt carry the Legislature by a
handsome majority.
