their movements get to striking among them
selves. In New York the Plasterer's Associa-
ton have passed resolutions refusing to work
with bricklayers who are allowed or who I'M
dertake to do any plastering. The latter, on
their side, retort By deciding to have no deal
ings with the former until the exclusive resolu-
ton is rescinded. Neither party, however,

their own case exactly the right they resist in

The Grand Jury, convened for the Septem-
Der term of the County Court, having con-
cluded the business before them, beg leave
to submit the following as their final report
We have had under consideration three
bills, as follows:
One for malicious mischief; one for for
gerry; one for assault with a deadly weapon,
and have found true bills. as follows;
One for malicious mischief; one for for
gerry, and have ignored one for assault with
deadly weapon.
This Grand Jury recommend the Board of
Supervisors to advertise to let by contract
the taking and keeping of the INDECENT sick
of this county, to the lowest responsible bid
der.
We further report: We deemed we would
be direlict to our duty should we fail to ex-
anime and inquire into the condition of the
prisoners and jail in which they are at this
time kept, as also the care of the Indigent
sick of this county. And we cannot fall
from our investigation to speak in the high
est praise of those departments of our county
organization.
Under the wise and discreet management
of those faithful public servants who have
the charge of the county prisoners, we say.
that we find cleanliness, kind treatment and
health. which merits our approval.
In that humane department for our Indi-
gent sick, the hospital of DR.. H9rchner, the
greatest comfort and strictest attention to
their health, is ever bestowed upon all who
are placed in his charge, and that in all those
general blessings that should be bestowed
upon the needy amidst humane people, the
Hospital of DIR. Herchner can claim par
allel with any like institutions in the State.

THE Democrats, notwithstanding all their
hilarity. have not much to brag of in the coun
ty. The night of election. when the returns be-
gan to come in, one would have thought by
their actions that they had carried every
State in the Union. The greater portion of
the Union County ticket is elected. The
Democrats have only one State Senator,
Sheriff. one Assemblyman and Coroner. We
have Clerk, Treasurer. District Attorney.
Superintendent of Schools, Administrator,
Surveyor. and two Members of Assembly,
Messrs. Bever and Aver. When we come to
add the County Judge to our list, as we
surely will, old Calaveras has not done so
bad after all. Between the two candidates
for the Iudseship, there is no comparison.
The best thing the Union party can do is to
give Weir mercy enough to travel around
the county. Anyone who would vote for
such a nondescript. in opposition to gen.
tleman like Judge Barclay. ought to be in the
lunatic asylum. and undoubtedly will be be-
fore long. The Salt Spring Valley sage will
not be called from the quietude of private life.

QUEER.-The Shasta Courier, a Union
paper, is an exception to what we supposed
to be an invariable rule. In its first issue
after the election there is not single word
in relation to the result. How in the world
an editor can have such control over his feel
ings as not to hurrah or curse, as the case
may be, over the result of such an exciting
contest, is to us incomprehensible. Perhaps.
however, he thought he "could not do the
sub ject justice" conmy. what is the matter
