tFrom the Sacramento Ddily Record.
Impuaenee Unparalleled.

The State Capital Reporter, of this city, comes
out in an article charging Schuyler Colfax with
being Know Nothing, and tries very hard to
create prejudice against him on that account
Let as ask the Reporter few questions, and see
If 1t will come out fairly and squarely and answer
them. Has it not had, at the head of its col
umns the name of man for President who was
Know Nothing? has it not the names OF three
at least, Presidential Electors paraded at its
masthead, from day to day, before the people
who were notorious Know Nothings? Has it
not one, II not two members of Congress, NOM
mated at regular Democratic Convention, who
belonged to the same party? Did not g Honest
John Bigler, of the editors of that paper,
seek admission into the Know Nothing council
OF this city, but was rejected, after he had re-
ceived the regular Democratic nomination for
Governor against ]. Neely Johnson, the Know
Nothing candidate? We know of what we speak
Does not that paper now prefer James Cofroth
for Democratic nominee for seat in Congress,
who so roundly abused the foreigners, " the ig-
ynorant Dutch and tie filthy Irish, as he called
them His descriptive powers almost failed him
when holding up to Know Nothing crowd the
horrors to result from the immigration to these
shores of the ignorant hordes of Europe. In the
face of these facts the Reporter, with the most
unparalleled impudence speaks of Know Moth
ings as being candidates of our party. We think
that the Reporter is posted on the obligations of
the Know Nothing order. For fear it may have
forgotten, let call to mind the fact that on
entering a lodge or council of Know Nothngs
most solemn oath administered, in which
each party was bound not to vote for any foreign
born citizen for any Office whatever and fur
ther. not to propose for membership any Roman
Catholic, and that he would oppose in all forms
the influence of ail foreign potentates and powers
an any efforts they m ght exert on this continent,
.sanS more especially that of the Pope of Rome. :"
We will ask the Reporter still a few more ques
tiOns Where now are to bb found the great
bulk of the old Know Nothing party but in the
rknks of Democracy Mas there a State outside
of the Sisve States that east its vote for Know
Nothing President? Was there United States
Senator in that body but what was sent there
from the South? The Know EothiRg party Was
started in the interests ST tire South, where it |
had its greatest strength, and where the last

will ask one more question of the Repester -atis

THE DEMOCRACY IN NEVADA.

Not long since we reported the fact that Jno
r. Mcconnell failed to get an audience to
hear him speak at Rough and Ready. We
now have to chronicle the fact that the same
gentleman was billed to speak at North
San Juan on Saturday evening last, but the
turnout amounted to nothing, and Neon
nell would not speak so the meeting went
| by default. On the 18th Mcconnell spoke
to twenty-seven persons at French Corral,
and, by actual count, thirteen of the number
were Grant and Colfax men. We obtain
these items from reliable correspondent.
If John r. Mcconnell, the most profound
ly read of all the prominent Democrats in
the State, gentleman of versatile acquire
ments, who has filled high positions, and
has been a candidate honored by the De-
mocracy with the highest place on the State
ticket, cannot obtain an audience in Nevada
county, truly the case of the Democracy is
desperate indeed.-San Francisco Times.
We don't like to quarrel with our
friends but it does seem to US that it
is not very wise arrangement-this
joint discussion business. If Wallace
or John Mcconnell wants an audience
all they have to do is to propose or
accept an offer of debate and some
chiyalrie Republican-like the northern
m hutton head who thinks it favor to
be allowed to loan money to a Chiv-|
makes the arrangements which simply
exhibit him to the eyes of the entire
Democracy and the balance of the out
side world as very soft snap. The
thing is not reciprocal. 1t may be high
toned and bravely generous to accord
an audience to the shirtless vagabonds
Of the other side, but it is not good,
square political sense. Let them get
audiences where and when they can
The fact is, they can't take one trick in

20 let them and while, as a philan-
.hropist, we would give even the Demo-
cratic rabble chance to get up out of

ance, we don't believe in pressing
'avors upon such fellows as laugh at

THE CASE SQUARELY STATED. - Henry
Ward Beecher, in a letter accepting an hon.
orary membership of the Printers Grant
and CoIfax Club at Washington City, says ::
The new adhesion of impatient Southern
men to the very worst type of Democratic
doctrine ever enunciated since the party
went into alliance with slavery cannot be
but as disastrous to the South as was the
league with the same party before the war
The Democratic party seem fated to lead the
South into deperate steps, and then to be ut
terly unable to help those whom it has de-
luded 1t will be so again. Utterly lost to
all moderation, the convention in New York
has laid down platform which will bring
cicil acar to tie South again, unless pre-
vented by the victory of the Republican
party.

THE SPEAKING.

Edgerton's speech, Saturday night, was
listened to by the largest audience that we
ever saw in the city. The Union Clubs Of
Gold Hill came up in procession, with theii
lamps in trim-no foolish virgins amongst
them-and with their big guns charged. The
Virginia Glee Club escorted them into the
city, and afterward rendered the occasion
joyous by discoursing sweet music. With
repeated salutes from the iron throat of the
Gold Hill Gun, with the choruses of the Glee
Club, airs from the brass band, the cheering
presence of fair ladies on the balconies, and
a general enthusiasm pervading the audience
in anticipation of the certain treat in store,
| the occasion was well enlivened.
| The speech Of Harry Edgerton was the
most exhaustive-the most complete and per-
fect-that we have ever heard. Edgerton is
courageous fellow. Few men would dare
few could afford to venture ito commence
with the beginning, and bring into speech,
to an audience mostly afoot, all the salient
points of the written history, showing the in
ception, the conduct and the animus of the
late war, in order to fully show the connec-
tons of the two political parties with it, and
then the nature of the reconstruction meas
ures, to justify them and prove the blame
that attaches to the Democratic leaders for
bad faith to the South and North. Edgerton
undertook this !; and made charming sue
cess of it. He convinced his hearers with his
arguments, and captivated them with his elo
Quence. He won golden opinions indeed, and
wrung applause from many unwilling ones
Irespass.
Nothing like having a good, square
proxy. We couldn't have told our SEN
timents upon this thing more to our own
satisfaction if we had tried a week.
Edgerton vented an essay-critical, com
prehensive and continuous embracing
the narrative of rebellion, war and re-
construction stating the aggregation
and incidents of the important history
which we are enacting, more thorough
ly and forcibly, and with more fairness
than we have ever heard them put by |
any writer or speaker. This sounds ex-
travagant; but it is a fair, just criticism.
Edgerton seems by his speech to have
done himself and his subject the justice
to have digested, in the form of a pop
ular speech, the story of the war, and
its bearing upon the politics of the times
{ az viewed from the Republican stand
point, and we think he appears before
his auditors-as Forbes says-so strong
ly the master of his subject as to wiring
applause "from many unwilling ones"
