that IN case Of non appearance their names
would be dropped from the rolls. Another
assertion has been wildly and ignorantly
made that the Board are intending to dis
miss all the white officers and I'LL their
positions with colored men. The fact is
that no more colored men have received
appointments than white men, which can
easily be verified by any citizen who is inter
ested sufficiently to make him investigate
the subject. The meetings are always open,
and the room is continually thronged by all
classes seeking appointments for themselves
or friends.
EXcURsIoN.-Relieved from the ordinary
routine drndgery of the profession this
reporter accepted yesterday the invitation
of Major Robinson, whom everybody
knows, to take an excursion on the Ella
Morse, that favorite steamer of government
officials. As the first destination was the
sacred ground of Chalmette Cemetery,
where repose all that remains on earth Of
thousands of brave men who gave their
lives to the country, that obedience to the
laws might be enforced and all men might
be free, no refreshments were taken on
board, and the party had q thirsty and hun
CRY time, subsisting entirely on ice water.
A tear was shed, a sigh was sighed, pa.
triotic sentiment was uttered amid the
graves of the patriot soldiers. That beautl
full city of the dead has been rendered
pleasing to the eye chiefly through the in.
strumentality of Captain Charles Barnard,
who deserves honorable mention and crate.

Nor YET DEAD.-We are sorry to state
that the fellow who hangs on the tail step
of street cars is not yet dead. He still lives
and still hangs, but there are thousands of
passengers who wish him dead and gone to

little known to pests who suspend them.

move off when passenger wishes to de-

Will somebody cut off his hands that he
may not cling to the postss viii somebody
throw him off and let car pass over both
his feet and crush them? Perhaps the
several railroad companies can invent and
patent some good plan to obliterate the fell
low who hangs on the tail step of street
cars. He is a nuisance that should be fed
with poisoned sausage.

The MURDER AND PERJURY IMBRoGLIo OF
MRS. HANsBURGER ALIAS Mrs. WILLIS
This interesting case or suit of cases, as re
Gently examined before Recorder Jackson,
duplicating Mrs. Willis in the murder of
John Leidinger and wife, is assuming a Sc
rious character, and considerable amount
of legal talent will have to be brought into
requisition before the thing is finally settled.
1t seems that Mrs. Willis has brought the
charge against the prosecuting witness
against her of the crime of willful and cor
rupt perjury. The case was examined before
Recorder Jackson on Wednesday last, and
the Recorder was to give his decision yester-
day, but pending cross charge of perjury
against Mrs. Willis as preferred in the Sec
ond District Recorders Court on Friday,
the decision is withheld until the cross
charge is brought up for examination.
Counsel for Mrs. Willis is positive he can
sustain second charge of perjury against
the young man Leidinger. There are rich
developments pending, and very interest
ing and complicated case will soon be
brought to light.

DELEGAfES 10 CHICAGO.

The opinion that new men-those who are
in nowise responsible for the disafection
which led to our defeat last Fall, and whose
antecedents are such as not to be objection
able to either wing of the party-should be
chosen delegates to the National Convention
at Chicago, is entertained BY the entire Union
press of the State. In accordance with this
view of the matter, the proposition to elect
the members of our delegation in Congress
is meeting with general disapproval. Those
who really hold the interests of the organiza-
tion paramount to personal advancement,
will recognize the necessity Of sacrificing
their ambitious ideas upon the altar of party
veal and cheerfully acquiesce in the express
ed wishes of the majority. In tlis connec-
ton the Sacramento Bee has the following
we'll timed remarks:
We do not believe in thrusting all the
honors of party on few men, no matter
who or what they are or have been or may
be. There are others to be considered as
worthy of attention for no party can live
and succeed if it shall countenance the
policy of gorging the few at the expense of
the many. Our members of Congress have
had their share Of honor. well paying honor.
and SO have the ex-members of Congress and
ex-Governors who are included in the mar
row little list of favorites-and let them rest
on what they have had. While any one
respectable representative of the party now
here and who has been without honors, or
has had but little, wants to go, let our pres
,I o,,l
back; but if there are not proper people
here who care for the trust. then appoint
those to whom we have referred but if one
be appointed all must be. If Cole shall be
elected Conness and Highly ought to be-and
if you send Bidwell you must also authorize
Gorham and Fay to be present. The better
way is, however, to shelve them all. They
have by their conflicts done enough injury
for the present. Let them take back seat
while cooler heads with better governed
tempers are brought into the front to har-
monize the party and lead it on to victory.
They have had fair trial and have failed.
They have had enough to satisfy any reason
able ambition. Let them rest OH these while
fresher. freer, more popular and no less pa
triotic n. en- raise aloft the banner which is to
lead to Union and TO victory. Perhaps some
citizen of this county, or of Nevada, or Iuba,
or Calayeras, or any other, would like to go.
If his delegation indorse him and he is 9TH
erwise acceptable, let him go and welcome.
Let all such go before sending authority to
any one now abroad to perform this duty.
Those in and about Washington have their
prejudices against some candidates and their
friendship for others. They cannot fairly
represent the Union party in California now.
Send fresh men from the ranks, who know
what the people want.

COUNTY CoNvENTIoN.-We were very much
pleased to see quite large attendance at the
Convention in San Andreas, on Wednesday
last. Every township was fully represented
except the Ninth, and those who were pres
ent evinced lively interest IN the matters at
issue before them. One of the most danger
Gus mistakes that can be made is to despise
an opponent. Even if the foe is thought to
be weak, the belief should not be allowed to
prevent every precaution being taken against
surprise. Lethargic non-action demoralizes
party and encourages the opposition. We
must work if we win this Fall, and we are
glad that the Union men of Calaveras are
fully awake to the necessity of action. The
Convention was harmonious in every partic-
ular, and the Democrats will find that they
will not have divided party to fight at the
next election. We publish the proceedings

UNDER the exhilerating influence of the
pleasant weather we are now enjoying,
miners have ogain commenced work upon
their claims with energy. New and exten-
sive operations in quartz are being inaugu-
rated, and the coming season promises to be
livelier than for several years preceding.
The success which has attended the opening
of the lode in Rich Gulch is having very
beneficial effect, giving encouragement to
others to persevere. Gravel mining, in Chilli
Gulcb, is being very successfully prosecuted.
Bracket s. Co. are erecting mill on their
claim for the purpose of crushing the cement,
it being found impossible to extract the gold
by the simple process of washing. They
will be ready to commence operations in the
course of two or three weeks. Messrs. Shaw,
Albright. Ahrnot & Co., aye hydraulcing
with good success. Stockton ridge is melt
ing away before their combined efforts like
snow before the sun. Paul & Co., Martin &
Co., Harkins & Co., are also busily engaged
in taking out the shining ore. The Golden
Gate Mining Co., we are informed, are get
ting excellent pay. The engine which they
have in use is not of sufficient capacity to
perform the labor required, and the compa-
ny intend to substitute a larger one for it
this season, and also erect mill The claim
has been thoroughly prospected and is prov
ed to be not only extensive but rich.
PAYMENT FOR ALAsKA.-The telegraph
says that Mr.. Highly made an argument be-
fore the House showing that Congress is
bound to make the Alaska appropriation.
We should say so, and the sooner the better
for the friendly relations between the United
States and Russia. We know the price to
be paid. Discussion in the matter is absurd,
after our soldiers have been sent there and
raised the American flag as an earnest of
possession.
