Has No PoLlcY.-A committee, appointed
for the purpose by the Chicago Convention,
| waited on General Grant to officially notify
him of his nomination. BY tremendous
effort Grant made a speech of some twenty
lines in which he said
You truly said in the your address, that
shall have policy ofmy own TO interfere against the
will Of the people,.
The committee were very kind to tell him
in the course of their address that he shall
have no policy of his own to interfere with
the will of his Radical trainers, whom he calls
the people. If the astute Hiram wished to
consult the will! of the people he would have
sought such authentic sources of information
as the election returns, for the past year, OF
nearly every free State from Connecticut to
Oregon, we forgot.-he had not heard from
Oregon. "Hiram" is just the article for a
Radical candidate he can be nodded to any
shape, as the potter molds clay. The FORE
going sentence from his speech proclaims the
material he is made of. Ben. Wade, Thad.
Stevens, Ben. Butler and the rest of the
Radical Directory can control him as easily
as Antony controlled Lepidus. Indeed Shaks.
peares picture of the Roman worthy might
be taken for that of Grant; the likeness is
perfect:
OCT, You may do your Will
But he's tried and valiant soldier.
ANT. So is my horse, octavius; and, for that,
do appoint him store of provender
IL is a creature that teach to fight,
To wind, to stop, to run directly on;
His corporal motion governd by my spirit
And in some taste, is Lepidus but so;

A barren. spirited fellow one that feeds
On objects. arts, and limitations

| CONGRESSIONAL ETIQUETTE.-A correspond.
ent of the Bulletin pronounces the Wash.
bourne Donnelly debate in the House as being
disgraceful beyond anything in the history of
legislative bodies since the world began. The
next sub heading of his letter reads: "More
ckguardism-Butler, Brooks, Logan"
In his next letter, dated May 4tb, the cor
respondent tells of Donnelly's colleague Mr..
Window introducing resolution to expel one
of the offending members, after ascertaining
who is the guilty party. Then Mr.. Spaulding
gets up and regrets he was not present last
Saturday to call Mr.. Donnelly to order 'sHe
would not have listened to such Billiasgate-
here the venerable enforcer of propriety was
himself called to order" At subsequent
point "the famous Chesterfield of the House,
the courtly Mullins of Tennessee, raised his
cry that he rose to "A pint of order y He
said, 4 don't think it's right for one member
to git up and slang. .whang any other member
in sich Style
Amid roars of laughter the Speaker inform.
ed the indignant member that the word
slang. .whang' was not parliamentary but
Woodbridge had not proceeded much further
before he rose to another pint, which, this
time, was we'll taken.
The previous question was then seconded,
and Mr.. Windows resolution was agreed to. !"
A highly refined and dignihed legislative
BODY is it not? Who can wonder that such
men should advocate negro equality? Con.
scious of their innate vulgarity and baseness
they feel that they would not have far to de-
scend to reach the level of plantation
darkeY.

Close OF tho velume.

The fourteenth volume of the UNION DEN.
ocRAr closes with this number. Through
many viciss,tudes of political fortune, 1t has
ALWAYS been true to the faith has always
hung ..i,s banner on the outer walP' of De
mocracy. While we have not the presumption
to think that, under our management, the
editorial columns have displayed the talent
for which they were distinguished, when
under the control Of the lamented Mr.. Fran.
cisco, Mr.. Ferral or Mr.. Seckel, we feel that
to the best of our ability we have advocated
the principles of Democracy, pure and unde-
filed. To US the support of those principles
is a labor of love. We are convinced that
the success of those principles and the per-
petuity of civil aud religious liberty in Amer
lea are SO thoroughly identified, that together
they must triumph or together 60 down to a
common grave. Democratic principles, are
logically deduced from the Constitution.
When governed by their liberal catholic
spirit, our country enjoyed degree of pros
perity aud happiness never before vouch-
safed to any country. Much irreparabie
injury has been done by the short-sighted,
narrow minded fanatics who have controlled
the government for the last eight years.
But, all is not yet lost, and, it the people
wish the country to regain condition OF
prosperity approximating to that enjoyed
prior TO the year 1860, they must replace in
power the only party that has ever demon
strated its ability to successfully and pros
perously administer the government. To
that end our humble efforts shall always be
devoted. We have fought with the "old
guard" of Democracy through the dark
est days of its defeat, when the waves o.
fan aticism threatened to submerge the
last landmark of constitutional liberty I'VE
have for some time past hailed with delight
the rapid return of popular reason, as shown
by the victories and immense gains of Demo,
cracy during the last two years, and feel
thoroughly assured that next November we
will achieve great, glorious and crowning
national victory over the demoralized follow
ers of the cabal of Jacobins who have
almost destroyed the temple OF liberty.
The profession ofjournalism is a new one to
us. Seven months ago, when we took charge
of the UNION DEMOCRAT Office, we knew no
more about printing Office than digger
Indian knows about algebra. But by close
application to business we have, TO a certain
extent, become master of the situation. The
favor with which the paper has been receiv-
ed, By our subscribers, since We took charge
of it, has been very gratifying tous; and we
hope to conduct it in future SO as to merit q
continuance of their esteem.

4 PARTING BANQUET. Saturday
few of the non professional friends OF
Henry =. Barber, Esq, wishing to give a
parting token Of the respect and esteem which
they entertained for SO distinguished a cti-
zen, met with him at Cabezut's Restaurant,
where an elegant supper had been ordered
for the occasion. The company consisted of
Mr.. Barber, the guest, Messrs. Mcneil,
Rodgers, Dorsey, Rooney, Redmond and
Calvin, members of the legal profession !;
Hop. c. IL. Randall, County Judge, and
Messrs. Bourland, Gardiner, Hawes. Mclean
and Arthur. After the vands were dis
cussed, the first regular toast, proposed by
Judge Randall was I" The health of our
distinguished fellow. citizen, Henry p. Barber;
may his future in his new home be prosper.
Gus aud happy" Mr.. Barber responded in
an eloquent speech, in which he feelingly
referred to his long association with his
brethren of the legal profession, during q
residence of neatly twenty years in Tuolumne
county, if he and they had had an occasional
sharp word, during the trial of some exasper-
atins case, the feeling was only momentary,-
their relations had been in the main of the
frlendliest nature. Such also was the case
with has fellow citizens generally, and it was
with heartfelt regret and sorrow he was
about to leave city and county where he
had lived 50 lorg and where so many en-.
dearing associations had grown up and en-.
twined themselves around his ex;stsnce
The utmost sociability and good feeling per.
vaded the entire company. Tossts were pro.
posed which brought almost every member
OF the party TO their feet, successiyelv. In
responding to the toasts, many yery hannv
speeches were made and much merriment
created. AT little after twelve O'Clock the
company broke up and went home.
Mr.. Barber lett for San Francisco on Mon.
day morning. 1t is the universal verdict in
this community that, in his departure Tnoi.
umne county has sustained an ir,enarahls
loss. His genius, eloquence, and profession.
al ability have been source of uride 10 Al,

The PARTY OF SPoNGEs.-We find our dark
complexioned exchanges passing the follow
ing item around as if it made a capital point
for their side:
THE spoSeE PAarY.-Brick Pomcroy has an intelgtble
national debt theory. He says "This financial prob
lem is too big thing handle except in one way This
whole debt has got to be spopged out
"Brick" probably thinks that after the
Camerons, Ashleys, Buffers and other spon'
pes of their sort, havo sucked up all the cash,
it would be no more than fair to wipe out all
the figures.
One of two things must be done; either the
expenses of the government must be reduced
to q figure which the people can stand in
addition to paying interest on the immense
debt already accumulated, or the people ir'
respective of party, as last resort, will have
to adopt the sponging process indicated by
Brick" The var expenses, alone, for the
current year will be over one hundred ahd
tventy.three millions of dollars. A sum
greater than was needed to pay the entire
expense of administering the government any
two years during Pierce's term of office.
