Rich Gulch Correspondence

RICH GULcH, Oct. End, 1867.
MIR. EDITOR In last weeks CHRONICLE
you say: ut is amusing to read the list of
premiums awarded to the ladies at the Sac
ramento and Stockton Fairs. Hardly single
article of real worth, or that could be of the
slightest use to any one was exhibited nv a
lady" Now, beg leave to say you are very
much mistaken IN your views of the matter.
If the articles you mention were made merely
for amusement, even then lady's time would
be well spent in making them-not her whole
time, of course-but such time as she can
command after her more important work is
done; for everything that adds to the beauty
and attractiveness of home is useful. But
they have other uses too. Remove the tides.
lamp-mats and such like "tomfooleries" from
the parlor and it would not be long till the
furniture would resemble Office furniture, the
tables scratched, and the sofas and arm chairs
bearing the marks of the hairdresser, partic-
ularly if young gentlemen called often. And
then, tatting collars. There is no part of
lady's dress that shows to more advantage
than neat and becoming collar, and there
are few who do not admire the taste and
skill, to say nothing of the industry and
economy of the lady who makes them for
herself instead of calling upon her father or
husband too buy them for her. Because a
woman does little in the way of fancy work
it does not prove that she knows nothing
about cooking and washing, or that she is
ashamed to be seen doing either Let me tell
you it is hard work to cook and wash. and
women don't like hard work any better than
men do, and I notice you all get out of doing
it when you can.
But 1 saw many things in the list besides
fancy work. Perhaps the reason you over
looked them or classed them with the other
'tomfooleries," is because you don't relish
good fresh butter and have got no sweet
tooth for preserves, jams and jellies; don't
like soft, knitted stockings on your feet, nor
to sleep under warm bedquilts cold nights
All 1 have got to say is, if you don't appre-
ciate them now you will when you become
crusty old bachelor and have to depend upon
bedquilts to keep you warm, as you deserve
to, and will if you continue to show the same
spirit towards the ladies that you did in your
article of last week. Yours, &c.,

HE JUDICIAL ELECTIoN.-On the 18th Of
this month the citizens of Calaveras will be
called upon to decide question Of vital i'm.
portance and absorbing interest to them
who shall be our County Judge for the next
four years. That the Office is an important
one. and that the people should render their
decision upon the merits of the candidates
rather than their political affiliations, mast
be apparent to every thinking, appropriated
voter. Notwithstanding the fact that both
organizations have placed a candidate in the
field and are appealing to party prejudice
for their support, there is no political prin-
ciple involved in the contest, at least so far
as the election of County Judge is concerned.
The object of the separation Of the elections
was to disconnect all partisan feeling from
the selection of Judicial officers. Viewing
the approaching contest then, as being based
upon the personal fitness of the aspirants for
the position, what are their qualifications :
Judge Barclay, the present incumbent, al
though we believe he has never applied for
admission to the Bar, is well versed in the
aw, and pronounced by those capable Of
giving an opinion, to be the ablest iurist who
ever sat on the Bench in this county. Pos
sessing remarkably clear and vigorous
mind, keen perceptions and sound judgment,
combined with ripe experience in judicial
matters, Judge Barclay is eminentiy fitted
for the position. His honesty, integrity and
impartiality, are unquestioned, even by his
political opponents. In those natural quail
titles and necessary requirements which an
aspirant for the County Judgeship should
possess, no one has the hardihood to deny
his infinite superiority to Mr.. Weir. Look
ing at the contest in a political light. Mr..
Barclay still has a decided advantage over
his competitor. That there is Union ma
jority in the county, there is no question.
All of the nominees on the State ticket, with
the exception of Gorham, had majority.
While Mr.. Barclay is a favorite with all
classes. Mr.. Weir, being as we are informed,
an out and ont secessionist is unpopular
with the conservative wing of his own party.
The only danger then of Mr.. Barclays de-
feat lies in the apathy of his friends and sup
porters. If Union men do their duty on
election day, and there is full vote cast,
Mr.. Barclay will be elected. His defeat
would be libel on the intelligence of the
citizens af Calaveras. Union men the result
of the general election has taught US that
victory never goes hand and hand with party
dissensions and indifference. Do not stay at
home on election day. The contest is close
and every vote counts. If We do our duty,
success will be our reward If not, defeat is
inevitable.

AT last we have secured the dearest wish
of our heart: a lady correspondent. For a
long time we have tried, and tried, and tried
-coaxed, Aattered and begged-entreated,
prayed and besought each and every one of
our limited number of acquaintance of the
feminine persuasion, to write US communi-
cation, but all to no purpose. Last week
We changed our tactics, and although it pain
ed our sensitive heart to the core, abused the
objects of our special alteration. soundly. 1t
had the desired effect, and the female cham
pion's retort appears in this issue. Oh! we
are delighted with it. III" your PROPOSE
tons are SO undeniably correct and so charm
ingly stated-your arguments so lucldly
logical, your deductions so plainly drawn,
and your style is so easy, graceful and flow
ing, SO fresh, unique and sparklingly piq-
uant, that We shall be "on nettles" until we
hear from you again. Why, there is as much
difference between your style of writing and
that of hackneyed professional scribbler, as
there is between fine, healthy, robust, romp-
ing, rosy-cheeked, cherry-lipped country
girl and a simpering, silly, affected, lank,
milliner- constructed, imitation, city Miss.
Do write, wont you: Abuse US as much as
you please-say all manner of hard things
about us-say that we are unappreciative,
ngentlemanly-even call us "bear" or a
''bore," if you please, but do write. Exercise
your own judgment in regard to a subject
take "Gossip," for instance; isn't that IA
vorite theme among the fair sex: Sail into
Mrs. Jones, give Mrs Brown or Jenkins
"hail Columbia" for aught we care, but
write US something. Then. "H," 'sladies
don't like to work hard" Ell: Well, we
should say not; and, judging by appearances,
they have their own way about it. But. God
bless the dear creatures, we wish they had
nothing to do but to play the piano, and we
would like to turn the leaves for them. We
just tell you, "H," that we don't intend to
aive to be "crusty old bachelor" not much ;
and what is more, we don't want you to hint
at such thing. We are going to have some
thing else besides bedquilts to keep us warm
nights, that is if we can get it. III" we do
not know whether you are maid, wife OF
widow; but if you have never tasted the
sweets of connubial bliss, and would like to
effect matrimonial engagement, there are
two of US in the same fix. We are not fond
Of widows. Now do write again, come.

LAST DAYS OF SENATOR McDoUGALL.-

The Albany Erening Journal says:
A few days since one of our most respected
citizens. while visiting patient in the vicin-
ity, was called to enter the dwelling in ques-
ton and see a sick man. He did so, and
found a poor. broken wreck of humanity,
tottering upon the verge of the grave. in the
last stages of dreadful disease. Despite
the ruin, physical and mental. which this
unfortunate presented, there were at occa-
sional moments. glimmerings of intelligence
which showed that the wretched being had
been something more than an ordinary man.
When the physician left, he was informed
tnat ne had seen what was left of Senator
McDougall.
