PINKHAMs New STAGE.-Last Friday afternoon,
Van Dusen, of the best drivers in the country,
drove in town. direct from Umata the splendid four
horse team and beautiful new sage wagon which
Pinkham has now placed on his Basin route. On
Saturday, upon the invitation of Mr.. Pinkham par
ty of ladies and gentlemen given ride to Tur-
ner's Warm Springs and back in the new vehicle,
with Van to manage the team We were among the
party, and pleasant time was enjoyed. The wagon
rode easy rocking chair, the team behaved finely
and at the Springs Mr.. and Mrs. Turner handsomely
entertained the party On the return to town an ice
cream treat rendered by Mrs. 'Thos. Wethered
and merry parting closed the happy occasion. Mr..
Pnkham merits the praise of our Basin people gen
orally for this last mark of his disposition to please
and accommodate them in his business. The new
stage is gotten up in the best STYLE with stout canvas
top, thick, soft cushions the inside finishing pretty
and with an eye to personal comfort and the whole
structure at once strong, smooth running and ele-
CANT. We believe that he purposes to run the new
stage and fine team to and from the celebration at
Boston tomorrow. Application for seats should be
made early.

so-called guerilla paper
A correspondent Of the Bulletin, who has
just made tour in Sierra and Nevada cOun

DoWn1eville on horseback, Friday, tells there

along the road. Persons from the upper part of
the county have the same story to tell I wish the
nominees all respectable; but Parks and Howell
and Mccarthy will net go down with the people, and
Gorha i is not acceptable.
Of Parks, another indignant Radical says:

But all this condemnation of the ticket and
of himself does not seem to prevail upon Cor

sert the post of duty to which have been egmately
assigned by my party.

The California Democratic Ticket.

The Democratic State Convention of Cali
ifornia, which convened in San Francisco
June 10Th, concluded its labors and adjourned
sine die on the 2lst. The following ticket was
nominated: For Governor, Henry H. Haight
of San Francisco; Lieut.. Governor, VIM Hol
den, of Mendocino; Secretary of State, DR.
Henry L. Nichols, of Sacramento; Controller,
Robert Watt, of Nevada Treasurer, Antoine
COrOnel Of Los Angeles; Surveyor General,
John w. BOst, Of MERGED Attorney General,
Joseph o. Hamilton. of Placer county; Har-
Dor Commissioner, James H. Cutter, of San
Francisco; Clerk of Supreme Court, George
Sickles, of Tuolumne; State Printer, Dan. Gel
wicks, of Ell Dorado; Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction, Rev. O. p Fitzgerald, of San
Francisco; Judge of the Supreme Court,
Royal 7. Sprague of San Francisco.
After the State Convention adjourned the
three Congressional District Conventions as
sembled, and their respective nominations were
as follows: First District s. B. Axtell; Second
District, J. W. Cofroth of Sacramento;
Third District, James A. johnson, of Sierra.
The State and Congressional Conventions
were tremendously conducted throughout, and
nearly all the nominations were made by accla-
nation. The State Convention was perhaps
the ablest and most respectable, all in all, of
any Convention which ever assembled in Cali
fornia. The ticket is certainly the best ever
put forth in that State. Of its complete sue
cess in September we have scarcely doubt

nothing to say against the general excellence

x Suggestion.

a A suggestion has been made to the
Newberry Herald, which seems to us
to be feasible, and applicable to many
Aeighborhoods as well as to Newbcrry
District. 1t is to adopt some regular
apd systematic mode of raising con-
trlbutions Of food TO the SUFFERING
and destitute, that all who really
need may receive aid, SO that n few
may not be called on to bear the
whole burden.
The suggestion is, that in each
neighborhood--say in n compass of
five miles-all the families should
meet together and form themselves
into a society, whose duty it should
be to ascertain who the needy are,
and their number, and that each
member should contribute of his or
hef means proportion each month
sufficient quantity to sustain their
poor and hungry neighbors-taking

1t is beyond question that those
who have any surplus of this worlds
goods ought to distribute to those
who are among us, and are ready to
perish for lack of bread. 1t is now n
time OF widespread dcstitution, such
as tle people Of this State have never
experienced or Witnessed; and ol-
though large contributions come from
private charitable sources abroad
and the Government has pnt forward
its helping hand, yet there must of
necessity be isolated cases in every
District wkich these charities and
donations will never reach, and it
strikes us that the above suggestions,
If carried into effect in the sections of
the State where food is needed, it
would to great extent mitigate much

ExPANsIoN.-The London Spectd-
tor reports o rumor that Mr.. Seward
is negotiating for the purchase of
all British America from the Pole to
forty degrees North latitude, and
from the Pacific to the Canadas;"
and Lord Stanley is said not to be
averse to such transfer. The Spec
tato,. thereupon remarks: eff Mr..
Seward has made any such offer, we
trust Lord Stanley will remember
that the owner of the American Pa
cifc seaboard will always be the most
formidable enemy India could have"
Whether OF not there is any truth
in this rumor, it is Of course impos-
sible to say. We surmise, however,
that it is nothing more than canard.
Since the Russian purchase, all the
wits in Yankeedom, and, it would
seem, some even outside the pale,
have been ut work, conjuring up new
plantations, to be bid off by Mr..
Seward. To be sure, there is some
excuse for his coveting the West Pa
cifc coast, for he wants the right Of
way to Walrussia.
