delivered by JEFF. Davis, in Canada, uses the
following language, which we commend to the
attention of such of our Irsh-born citizens as
intend to vote the Democratic ticket:
This arch-enemy of that great Republic which
the tyrants of England hate and fear - this
champion of the brutal enslavement Of millions
of men, as immortal as himself-this scourge OF
humanity, with the blood of slaughtered thou.
sands on his skirts - has now added another
transcendent crime against God and man to the
long black list of his horrid and hateful life.
He is now the champion of the blessed British
empire-the martyred saint whose prisons arise
to heaven for the eternal perpetuation of its rule
Can the man who strove to strangle liberty in
America be the friend of liberty in Ireland? Can
those who are the loud-mouthed admirers OF
England be, at any time, or under any circum-
stances, other than the enemies of Ireland?
Then, for the sake of our suffering county, let
Us have done with wretched names, and still
more wretched parties. Let us take our stand
on eternal principle. Liberty for Ireland, and
for all other lands, and death to slavery and

| THE FIGURES CoME IN WELL.-The Great Reg
lister of Santa Clara contains ,25C names, which
is nearly 200 more than the total number OF
| votes cast there in any year. Humboldt has over
| 200 names on its Register, while it has never
cast more than 700 votes. Yolo has on its Reg
lister larger number Of names than it has cast
votes, and this we are beginning to believe will
be the fact in most of the counties-certainly in
| all the leading agricultural ones. We have the
6gues from but one mining county - Nevada
and they are ahead of its vote. These facts,
together with those published in yesterdays Bee
relative to San Francisco, Sacramento and Ne
| vada, show one of two things-either the num-
Der of voters is rapidly ON the increase in Cali
| fornia or thousands have remained away from
the polls during the most exciting elections.
Probably both these reasons have had some thing
to do in the premises Our voters, we believe,
are increasing by young men coming of age and
| by immigration, while all know it to be true
that quite per centage of citizens always
kept from the polls by sickness, absence or dis
inclination 10 be present. The figures, however,
show one great and pleasing fact - that the
people have not neglected the duty of rcgistra-
ton, and in this they have thus far fully sus-
| tanned the wisdom of those who passed the law.
These same people must now see that its enemies
shall not be sent to the Legislature to destroy it.
The primary election law and the registry law
are great political purifiers, aud as such should
be maintained. The Union candidates Of this
county-Long Hair-and those who placed them
in the field are the special friends of both, and
they should be chosen to the Legislature TO keep
these laws where they are, and make such judi
cious amendments thereto as q wise experience
shall suggest-Sacramento Bee.

CALIFORNIA HoPs AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION.

CALIFORNIA HoPs AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION.
4 correspondent of the Sacramento Bee who is
attending the Worlds Exposition writes Rest
ing upon q table in the midst of other American
field products, unpretending in appearance, is o
single bale of California hops. 1t bears no la
bel or mark except this =" F. Scherr, San Fran
cisco, California" and this with the brush of q
common marking pot, as though it had been sent
from some interior town in California to F.
Scherr, San Francisco, but it needs no other
mark. This bale, with the covering removed
from one end, has voice speaking for itself.
Not day passes that we do not see from one to
five paper bags, each holding from pint to a
quart or more, filled with these hops, and all for
the purpose of testing their quality and gentle
men who have taken them one day come with
two or three others the next, all of whom take
in their turn the accustomed quantity for renew
ed trial, and thus far all are surprised that the
quality fully equals their fine appearance. Now,
whoever the person may be that sends this bale
of hops to the Exposition, we can briefly inform
him that though he will lose his hops, by repeat
ed seizures of quart at time, he will do more
for the agricultural interests of California, by
increasing the foreign demand for California
hops, than many others will do who came to the
Exposition, making far greater pretensions.

A STARTLING DISCOVERY. - a party of young
people, recently, amusing themselves at the
house of Rev. Mr.. White, near Terre Haute, In
diana, were suddenly somewhat startled on hear
ing the croahing of frog in their midst While
they were vainly searching for the strange visit
ant-an unwelcome one, certainly, in front
parlor-they noticed that one of their number,
| young girl of seventeen, named Mary Copaxi
turned as white as n sheet and laid her hand
upon her breast. The croaking continued, and
Miss Copaxi suddenly uttered terrible scream
and swooned away AS her young companions
gathered round her, applying the proper restor-
atives, they made startling discovery that
thrilled them with horror Mr.. White at this
juncture, inquired as to the meaning of the
strange tumult, and was informed that the croak-
ing of frog was heard, proceeding from the
| stomach of Miss Copaxi. There could be no
mistake; the noise came from the young girl
She swooned away three times before the kind
minister could inspire her with sufficient hardi-
| hood and coolness to endure her misfortune as
became Christian and her companions were
obliged to carry her home in carriage. DR.
Williams, promising young surgeon visit
to some relatives at this place, was Immediately y
sent for. He perceived at once that his patient

with the work which alone could save the young
girls life. Before night he had made an incl

tracted q large, green, speckled frog almost four
inches in length The girl is now doing we'll,

NIGGER EQUALIrY lLLusTRATED.-Fear of being
placed On an equality with the negro is one Of
the chief hobbies Of latter.day Democracy Be-
low We give case in point, which we will in
troduce by stating that when our old friend and
assistant Hickman, arrived at his destination
California, Missouri, he forwarded US copies
Of the village papers-the Loyal M.sourian,
loyal 10 the core-and the Central Missourian, as
utterly disloyal in sentiment and tone. McDo.
nough, correspondent of the Yreka Journal,
writes his last letter from this same town Of
California, NO., and in opening narrates the fol-
lowing, which is worth reading:
In this city is a paper, the Central Mssourian,
always been very much opposed to "nigger
equality" No man was louder than he in de-
nouncing it; no paper in the State had more to
say over it. To give you full illustration, to
let you know upon how large q platform this
editor now stands on the negro equality
question, will relate An incident that transpired
under my direct observation. 1t was during the
session Of the County Court. A black woman

making the changes which the scholars deemed
needful. Many Of the corrections will commend
themselves as at once just and more in accord
anee with good taste, while others may start in
quiry in the mind of an attentive reader as to
their propriety. We find some changes like the

The SABBATH. - The longer live the more
highly do estimate the Importance o. proper
observance of the Christian Sabbath, ana the
more grateful do | feel toward those who take

Community. The Lords day is the day on which
