RALLY TO GRANT AND CoLFAx

TIE Copperheads predict - fzzle y
TO night. They say there is no enthu-
siasn in the Republican party of Orms-
by county. They say among themselves:
9 The Blacks are split up into factions
they warmed up a little just after the
Chicago Convention, but they are dead
and apathetic now" We can prove all
their sneering assertions to be true il
we are willing they shall 60 nnrefuted !,
to- night. 1t is easier to stay away from
the meeting than to attend it. But we
can give these, our revilers, the lie d.
rect if we but do our duty manfully and
cheerfully.
The campaign opens tonight. Sen
ator Stewart fresh from his fficial lab
ors, fresh from the great councils of the
party and moved by the impulses of a
most earnest patriotism, will give US
the key note OF victory and peace in
November next; Hon. George c..
Gorham, true to the faith that is in him,
delays his return to California in order
that bis voice may be heard in Nevada
in advocacy of the great cause of loyalty
and law; and Charley belong, the elo-
quent and gifted, the champion of the
young loyalis,s of Nevada, will tell US
of what be witnessed at Chicago, what
he hopes for the country and what al
example Of unity and high purpose is
the National Republican party of the
great Northern States that be has lately
visited.
lie, us all gather together onight in
the name of Union and Peace. Let US
make such showing as shall prove to
the Copperheads of Ormsby county that
their cause is as hopeless now as it has
been in the past.

THE Sacramento Bee has the following
Directing to the Southern States choosing
Electors by the Legislature, the Reporter
says: " The State of Nevada has as much
right to order the election of Electors by the
Legislature as have the people of the South. p"
Certainly it is a constitutional right which
California can exercise as well any State
if it shall please Governor Haight to call
the Legislature together and that body shall
please to do it. 1t is policy, however, that
we would not advise anybody to follow but
if any State does follow it, BY what right, We
ask, DO the people of another State object !:
This is Democratic doctrine-it was put
into the Constitution by them, for they claim
to have run the Government from the days
of the revolution till those of the rebellion
and during III the time, South Carolina, the
chief of the Democracies, SO elected her
Electors, and no one objected. 1t is aques-
ton for each State to settle for itself, and
with which outsiders have no business.

MUsr BE SroPPED.-The heather habit Of
our Chinese residents in reference to their
incurables must be stopped BY legal enact
ment, or BY arbitrary judgments, from our
courts. The Chinese of this city. land
others, too,) are in the habit Of sending
their incurables off to die in some lonely and
solitary hovel. In this city they hire a shan
ty on B street, between First and Second, to
which they send dead and alive Cinnamon.
Last Wednesday an incurable was taken to
the above named place, and laid down to
die. Nothing was given the poor creature to
eat, but pail of water was placed near by
from which he might drink if he had life
enough left to make the exertion. This
Chinaman fingered till Sunday night, when
he died. The case was presented to Mayor
Gorham. and he visited the deserted and dy-
ing man on Sunday. He subsequently called
upon some of the leading Chinese, and no,-
fed them that if another such case came TO
his knowledge the parties to the outrage
would be arrested and severely punished

A PARTISAN FAsHIoNABLE.-Says the
correspondent of London paper, writing
from Paris, of the incidents Of the recent
racing time at Longchamps: Yesterday,
perhaps. next to the 18th of August, may
be considered the greatest holiday of the
Partisan year. Every body-at least every
body who is Catholic-goes to the Grand
Prlx. The Protestants drive down later, see
the race over the hedge for nothing, and SO
save their NapoleOns and their coIsciences.
4 propos, will tell you little anecdote.
Every Sunday the Jockey Club issues ticket
OF different color for ladies'. Yesterday,
for instance, it was canary color to-day it is
pink. Mdme. de ", who is very particu-
lar about her dress, and ever studious of the
harmony Of color, sends her maitre dhotel
every Monday with her compliments to NJ.
Grandhomme tour Mr.. Weatherbyy, and
twill he kindly tell her the color Of next
Sunday ticket" 1t is the fashion to wear
your ticket pinned on your breast and
Mdme. de u builds up the elaborate
structure of her costume on the groundwork
of the Jockey Club color.

He says that when he says let US have
peace" But there can be no peace,
no order, no justice, no prosperity 20

North if what the loyal Congress has

self asserting secession be not dead, If
slavery is no. obliterated, if, as Wise
says, and as Blair promises, rebellion

ever, there should be no peace. Better

lshed after its first attempt at seces

entire satisfaction by the Union party

like the recomme ndation of the ''Storey

CoNsrL-GENERAL OF FRANcE.-We are
reliably informed that Mons. C. F. de Gazette,
the French Consul at this port, and at pres
ent absent in Europe, has been appointed
Consul General of France for the Pacific
Coast, which title he will assume on and after
his return here, which Will be in the course of
few weeks. Hitherto the only French Con-
sulate-General in the United States has been
at New York, where Baron Gauldree Boileau
has held the position for many years-the
Consulate at San Francisco of course occu-
pying subordinate rank. Hereafter there
will be separate department in San Fran
cisco, entirely distinct from those of the
Atlantic side, and probably the Consul-Gen-
eral at this port will occupy the same rela-
tionship with the COnsuls on the Pacific
Coast, that Baron Boile2u in New York does
with those of other Atlantic cities.-S. F..

at some embarcadero in San Louis Obispo
County, last week, evaded the matrimony
law relating to minors by taking the parson
to sea in whale-boat and having the knot
tied outside the jurisdiction of the State.
On LIES ocean they LAUGHED the bark of

The Public Domain.

The Commissioner OF the General
Land Office, in circular letter addressed
10 the numerous land Offices throughout
the country, gives some directions and
makes certain suggestions which are OF
importance. 1t directs these officials to
prepare from time to time statements OF
the adaptability of the public lands to
agriculture and TO mining. All facts
which will throw any light upon these
subjects or aid science in her work OF
making them profitable, and thus inuring
10 the benefit of the republic, are desired
by the department These instructions
are we'll lined. As the Commissioner
suggests in the letter, very large part
of the public domain is undervalued and
unappreciated. Lands which, with q
small amount of scientific labor, can
be made to support large popu-
lation, are regarded as being worthless,
simply because no researches and
discoveries have been made tending to
show in what manner and by what means
they can be rendered cultivable. And
the same must be said of our mineral
lands. That there is an amount of golI.
and silver almost beyond calculation ia
this country we feel perfectly assured;
but in whstmanner this vast wealth ia to
be made available at as early yeriod as
possible science has not yet ascertained.
If the directions of the Commissioner
are faithfully and intelligeutly carried
out we believe that lands which are now
looked upon as barren and worthless will
in few years add considerably to our
agricultural resources, and that mines
which have been abandoned as exhausted
or profitless will be worked again scien-
tifcally, to the profit of the owners and
the mineral wealth of the republic.
