A BACK DowN.-Some days ago the
German Democratic Club of Sacramento
challenged the Republican Club Of that
place for public joint discussion. The Re-
publican Germans declined, unless English
speaking could be bad, and all classes could
attend. There is about one in ten Of the
Germans who are Republicans, and they did
not wish to exhibt'tber meagre numbers in
contrast with the large Democratic German
population 10 Sacramento, unless they could
have their Know- Nothing brethren join with
them to swell the crowd. That's why they
backed down. The few German Republic
cans left in the ranks Of the party that is
made up of the dregs Of the old Kuo,w'Noth-
iugs, prosoripsives, negroes, fanatics, bond
ocracy and carpet bag thieves, are beginning
to find that it is time they too should seek
mora honorable political associates.

A Tender Spot,

The Bee, Record, and our little cotem. on
the bill, were all touched TO the quick BY our
article las. week headed Ten Days More"
contrasting Grant and Seymour and showing
Grants msdocrity and utter worthlessness
as civilian. Bless your innocent little souls,
we said nothing about aristocracy or plsban-
ism, wealth or poverty, or bad any reference
to such matters, nor would our article bear
any such construction in the slightest degree.
Do you innocents suppose the United
States selects boys from every Congressional
district, gives them the finest and most useful
education TO be bad 10 the country, at her
own expense and then turns them out to
drive oxen, haul wood, or black aud polish
side leather? If you do, it is fortunate for
Uncle Sam that be never spent any money
on your education. 1t is tot necessary for
our government to give its boys complete
educations 10 order TO qualify them to drive
oxen, haul wood, or turn the reel that hoists
sinking leather from a tan vat, though these
we're Grants only civil qualifications, with all
THAI bis government bad spent upon bis edu
cation. No, no. When the United States
sends forth her educated young men, if they
do not choose to remain 10 the army, she ex
poets them to engage 10 some pursuit that
will be useful to the country and honorable
to the Government, such as engineering
canals, slackwater navigation, railroads, or
the invention Of improved forts, Notifications,
caunons rifles, pistols, bullets, swords, en-
gines, etc. But Grant, poor Grant, has done
none of these things. He has never been, as
we said before, law giver, or the execu'
tor Of civil laws, not even a constable or
path-master. 1t is honorable 10 the poor
uneducated man 10 drive oxen and haul wood,
we have done both, and are not ashamed Of
it, but We would be ashamed of il if our Gov
eminent bad educated us and fitted US 10
serve it 10 the higher pursuits Of her pane
and interests

RooRBAcKs.-Look out for lies, falsehoods,
false statements, fase rumors and every con-
cie,able roorback that radical rascaity can
invent between this and election day. 1t
was never safe to believe anything found 10
the mongrel papers that initiated against
the Democracy. but now, within the few in
tsryeniug days before the election, they have
combined to lie US out of our boots, If not
out Of our votes. The Union, Bulletin and
Alias tel-lis.graph will lie from-uow until
the setting of the sun on Tuesday next, an d
it is safe bet that majority Of all political
news between now and election day is lies.
Turn deaf ear to all their lies and roor-
backs, and tell them to 60 and read them to
nggsrs, Cinnamon, and ignorant mon.
grsls.
Democrats, remember these things and act
accordingly, and all will be we'll. Be true,
b. vigilant, be active, and Seymour and Blair,
tho country's hope, the peoples choice, will
be elected.

IMPORTANT Observation-Disclosures will it pro-
fit man if he gain the whole world and
lose his own soul, or what would man
give in exchange for bis soul. Bible.
What will it prof. Republican il hs gain
negro suffrage and lose bis owu'right to vote
or what would be give in exchange for bis
own liberty.
These are question we should like every
honest Republican to ask and answer himself
The leading Republicans know what they are
doing, and when We speak Of leading Repub
loans we have no reference to any one in
this county, but to the central oabal at Wash
ingtou city. and their wealthy, wicked high
chiefs throughout the country. II the De-
mocracy are defeated you common Rspubli
cans 90 down with US. They will have nc
more use for you than they now have for th'
negroes Of Floridr. You will have ssrvee
their present purpose aud will then be turned
out with the common herd Of hewsTs o
wood and drawers OF watsra With thest
facts, and shadows Of coming events before
you, If you choose TO vote your Liberties AND
property away, why vote for Grant, but j
you choose to preserve them for yourself and
children then vote for Seymour and Blair.

DANGER AHEAp.-If Grant drove the
Jews from bis lines by bis "class ORDER" as
now seems to be admitted by all parties, to
give his father aud the "Mack Brothers" a
chance to steal, and trade, in and across his
lines, with rebels and Union men, and all for
the sake Of making money, through bis poor
old father, who is :otteriug upon the brink Of
an awful eternity, how long will it take him
to steal the liberties and substance Of the
people Of the whole United States il elected
President, with the present theviug Congress
to aid him Voters, think Of these things
when you get up next Tuesday morning, and
vote for Seymour and Blair.

SHAKING IN THEIR Boors.-The truth
like murder, will out The October elections
were, in fact, drawn battles and indicators Of
coming Democratic victories. The telegraph
refuses to give the truth 10 plain words, bu!
it leaks out at last. A wink is as good as a
word to the wise. What caused the National
Republican Committee to issue an address
appealing to the people to stand by them in
this contest, if they have carried, and are
going to carry everythiug9 This address is
issued, and tslegraphed all over the country
just six days before the election. We will
tell you why. The late elections show that
on square vote, the Democracy could, and
would, carry Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois
and perhaps Ohio, and elect Seymour and
Blair. They went TO work to do it, and the
great Democratic meetings, and uubounded
enthusiasm, determination, energy, and IN
ouquersbls will of the everything Democ
racy, has 90 far succeeded that the bravado
is all knocked out Of the Mongrsl hosts, and
their National Committee is quaking in
desperate .repida.ion, and tho telegraphed
begging, appealing, address is the evidence
Of their coming overthrow, and a glorious
Democratic victory. Our brethren 10 the
Eas. are fighting as men never fought-wil
the California Democracy follow their ex
ample-yes. Then three cheers for Seymour
and Blair, and white mans Government

CHINESE TREATY.

This Treaty, made by the Mongrelized
American MorgreI, Burlpgame, sanctioned
BY the Abolition Secretary of State, VIM. Il.
Seward, and ratified by the Radical Rump
United States Senate, all supporters of Grant
and Colfax, is now the law Of the land, 80
far as the fanatcal authorities at Washington
can make it so. 1t places the Chinese Empire
upon Oh equal footing with the most favored
nations of the earth, in its Intercourse with the
United States. Permits the Mongrel boards
to swarm to our shores without restriction,
to trade, buy, sell, own and enjoy, all species
Of property. real and personal, enjoying our
courts, open to them our schools, DC. Let
those who desire to open our lands to
Chinese settlement, that our white husband
men may be driven away from this coast
vote for Grant and Colfax; let those who
wish our FREQ schools to be opened to Chi
nsse brats, that they may set side by side
with their children, vote for Grant and Col
fax: let those who desire the white laboring
man 10 be driven from our shores by swarms
Of beastly, heathensh coolies, vote for Grant
and Cofax, and they will sure y accomplish
all their desires. On the other hand, lei

for those who fought for it, who paid for ii
who braved the dangers Of the sea, the peril
Of the Tropics, or the fatgues Of weary
toilsome journey across vast deserts il
the face Of savage foes to reach it, and 'he
posterity and race, vote for Seymour ane
Blair, and this base, abhorent and oalbsom'
Chinese treaty will be wiped from th'
archives of the nation, and the Pacific slope
will belong TO white men, christian men
and free men forever.
Remember, reflect, and settle this question

A. A. Sargent.

Miners and settlers read this. After hav-
ing proved, in successive articles, the guilt OF
A. A. Sargent, now candidate for Congress
in this district, in aiding to grant the lands
mines and timber on mining claims away
from the owners and claimants, we published
the following charge and banter on the 18th
of September last:
We again charge that A. Il. Sargent did,
mhen member of Congress. cote and worh
for bill granting array from the miners all
the timber groaoing upon their mining claims
on the odd sections covering belt twenty
miles wide, and about lao miles long; that
the same bill granted all the land, timber, ana
undeyeloped mines in and on the remainder
of said odd sections, (uot having homes cad
or pre- emption claim thereon prior to the
taking effect Of said graut,) that the said BIZ
did pass and become law, and that Il, Il
Sargent voted for 1t on its final passage.
Neither A. A. Sargent, or any newspaper
u bis favor in the I'd Congressional District
Of California can or dare dispute, OF attempt
to refute these charges, and keep truth on
their side. We have proved all these charges
from the Congressional Globe, and can re-
produce the proof at any time.
Neither denial or rolutation Of the above
has been offered or attempted 10 be offered
from that day to thia.
With all this staring them in the face, will
the miners and settlers vote for this map to
