We arc informed that some of our
proud Caucasian Democratic fellow-cit-
liens have taken umbrage at the call for
n Republican meeting on Saturday eve
ming, claiming that their prior an
nouncement Of q similar intention had
operated as mn exclusive appropriation
Of that evening. How preposlcrous
We imagine that the town Of Gold Hill
has standipg-room enough 10 aceompo-
date two or more meetings of oach
party, and. we know of no rulo, either
Of law or custom, to prohibit the hold
ing Of any number of meetings on any
evening that citizens may select. And
we presume that any citizen, no mat
ter how many political meetings might
be announced, would have tho right to
absent himself, remain ut home, attend
q meeting Of a benevolent or religious
society, or oven SO to some ~fnvorite
b~ibulating establishment, and, in n
quiet aud orderly manner, get glori-
ously drunk, regardless Of race, color
or political proclivities. Whether truly
or not, tho ''alast say is considered u
matter of somo Importance in n political
contest, and it is u sweet assumption
that ono party may, even on the first
day Of q canvass, designate tho last
night before election for n meeting,
and thereby irrcvocably appropriate it
to their own solo and exclusive use and
benefit. Tho Republicans claim tho
right to meet together or stay ut home
on any or every evening of tho year,
and concede the same right to tho DEM
ocrncy. Whether they hold meetings
or not, is mont Of our business, and is n
matter in which We take not the slight
est interest. We wish neither to modest
nor interrupt them, and will certainly
tolerate no interruption BY them Of our
privilege to meet Whenever and where.

D~rxocRArIc ExpERIEScE.-The editor
Of the Esmeralda Union, whose political
somersault was so vociferously mp
plauded by the Sacramento and Silver
Bend Reporter and the HUMBOLDT Register,
thus gives his experience since the
"change came DER the spirit Of his
Dream"
One ofthe most satisfactory effects ofDemoc-
racy is the economy which results from II.
Our wash-bill, since, we joined the "Grest
Unwashed," has fallen from two dollars a
week ~to-nothipg. We spend no money at
the barbcr's or 6ootblack's; contribute moth
ing to the support Of minister's Of the gospel
or public schools; make no donations to asy-
lums for curing deafness or blindncss-both
OF which disorders, Especially when they are
of q mental nature,) are promotiye Of pure
Democracy. Have no trouble nov about our
little store-bills-hayc, in fact, become such
4 favorite among the merchants that they all
desire US to have first choice Of their new
goods, and have unanimously requested US
TO wait till the new stock arriyes-after tho
Presidential election. We suffer a constant,
narrowing fear that niggcrs, Cinnamon and
Piutos will become bur political, moral and
social supcriors, and our torturing "yisions
Of the night" unveil = spectral presentiment
OF the horrible reality. We have a constant
desire "to shoot a Niger" and IL we could
only get credit for an extra gallon Of corn
some morning, the great aSonixing Oar Of
niger supremacy would doubtless be Lifted
from the Democratic mind, Of this commu-
nifty at least, before sunset. Byltheso pres

About Philosophers.

Several thousand years ago the Greek phil osophers had dispute as Co the true size of the sun. The majority maintained it was just the size it looks Co be- AnaXaguras with more daring mind, hazardcd an opinion that it might be as largo as all Greece, and got Iidicul,d for his pains while AnaXiman- der committed the outrageous folly ot suppo- sing that it might be twenty eight times as large as the earth for which that ancient soraH came nigh being stoned Co death.
 In like manner our Radical philosophers in Congress are now disputing a7 Co the size and power of the Con tiution of the United States. Uncle Thad. Stevens and Charles sumner agree that it s no bigger and oi no more value than n Connecticut pumpkin while Fessenden and sherman, more conScr vativc, think 1t might be made large enough to cover the State of Rhode Island. To this. Gov Sprague objects but is willing Co com pro,nsc on concession that tho instrument, ii properly applied, might possibly be used as a sort of dish cover, with it's edges resting around the rocky shores of all Naragansett Bay.
 Modern science has taught us that the sun is twelve million times larger than this green football on which we live-that this earth, in fact, if dropped upon it's surface, would be not much bigger than a melehlli And so, some day before long, our Radical anarclis at Washington may wake up Co find, that the Constitution of the United States is ten mill ion times larger, and of more value than the whole kit and kaboodle of miserable Radical worms who are laboring in their blindness and narrowncss of view to belitte its propor- tions and deny ifs authority.-N '.

 UNION PAcYIc RAILWAY F.. D.-The New York Tri5me discussing the propriety of Congress granting the subsidy asked by the | Union Pacific Railway, E. D., has the follow ! ing:
 ! Tue Kansas Pacific Railway pushes "the l plains further and further west, saves the ! Government the necessity and expense oi permanent forts and narrows the fields of op- erations against the Indians Of all the propositions toreduce the public expenditures and lessen taxation, none is so practical as to devote 10 the Pacific Railway laborers the money now spent upon soldiers on the plains. It costs S20O0,000 year to support a regi- ment of cavalry there. Every fifty miles oi the route completed dispenses with the reed of regiment of troops. This saving is equal to the interest on over S33,OOO,OO0 of Gov ernment bonds If the extension 0f this road to the Pacific saved to the Treasury the cost of only three regiments of cavalry the economy would be S6,oOOO00 per annun, the
 interest on SlO0U00,0O0 of public debt
 There is no retrenchment so practical as tC
 speedily complete this railroad The reduc
 ton of the army and the diminution of th'
 military expenses are attainable only thTougl the extention and completion of the Pacit Railways.

THE HOMESTEAD AcT.-The Alta gives the following synopsis of the Homestead Act :: " The General Homestead Act provides that no property shall be deemed homestead, or be exempt from forced sale under execution unless declaration that the land claimed as a homestead, has been filed for record and the Probate Law provides that after the death of man, leaving a widow or child, the Pro bate Court, "if there is no law exempting property faom execution shall set apart for the use of the heirs, certain persOual property and a homestead. There is statute exempt ing property from execution, and as the Gen eral Homestead Act requires the record of a claim, 1t has generally been supposed that the Court could not set apart homesteads to the prejudice of creditors, but the Supreme Court decides that it can. If a married man is living on piece of land, he cannot have an exempt homestead there, without filing a claim, but his widow is entitled to one. This claim is subject to any prior mortgage or lien, but it is not subject to any personal debt of either wife or husband.

The Footsteps of Decay.

The following is translation from an an cient Spanish poem, which, says the Edin- burg Reri}r, is surpassed by notliug with which we are acquainted in the Spanish language, except the Ode of Louis de Leon " Oh, let the soul its slumbcrs break Arouse its senses, and awake
 To see how soon Life, in ifs glOrius, glides away. And the stern footsteps Of decay
 Come stealing on. And while we view thc rolling tide Down which our flowing minutes glide Away GO fast, Let us lhc present hour employ, And deem each future dream joy
 Already past. I.s; no vain hope deceive the mind, No happier let us hope to find
 Io morrow than to-day Our golden dreams Of yore we're bright, Like them the present shall delight
 Like them decay. Our lives like hastening streams must be, That in.O one cngultiug sca
 Are doomed to inll- The sea Of death, whose waves roll on Ger king and Kingdom, crown and throne,
 And swallow al Alike the rivers lofdiy tide, Alike the humble riynlet's glide,
 To that sad wayel Death levels poverty and pride, And rich and poor sleep side by sldc,
 Within the grave Our birth is but Il starting place; Life is the running of the race,
 And death the goal; There an our glitterina toys are brought That path alone, of all unsought,
 Is found of all. Sec, then, how poor and little worth Are all those glitteTing toys of earth
 That lure us here; Dreams Of sleep that death must break; Alas before it bids us wake,
 We disappear. Long ere the lamp of death can blight, The cheeks pure glow ofred and white
 Has passed away; Youth smiled, and all was heavenly fair Age came, and laid his finger thcre-
 And where are they: Where Is the strength thai spRrned decay, The steps that roved SO light aud guy,
 The hearts bhthe tOucy The strength is gone the step Is slow, And joy grows wearisome. aud woe!
