Unionists of Western Nevada should unite
in one grand mass meeting as the initiative

one and one which ought to meet favorable

last week and on last Saturday night the
Ormsby County Union League appointed a
delegation of twenty Of its members to re-
present that organization at the contemplated
meeting in Virginia. The Reception Com
mittee was to have held a meeting yesterday
at the Governors Office; but whether it was
held or not, and, if held, what action was |
taken, we have not been apprised. We pur
posed giving list, this morning, of the
delegates appointed by the League; but the
Secretary who promised to furnish with
hem failed to connect. We will try and

Could NOT keep STEP TO THE Music
OF THE UNIoN."-At the late Democratic
ratification meeting in Grass Valley process
sion was formed at the club rooms, to march
to the place of meeting, headed by band of
music. AS the procession started the band,
unfortunately for the occasion, struck up the
thrilling patriotic air of " Marching through
Georgia" A prominent Democrat immedi-
ately stepped out of the ranks swearing he
would not go in procession where that tune
was played, For" said he, "d-n them,

tense of mine. His acts throughout the war,
as well as since its close, speak for them
selves, and these acts are so grand, so noble
and statesmanlike, that we can well afford
and should overlook one fault, especially
when we consider the circumstances under
which it was done.
Let me assure you, and through your val
liable paper. all our fellow-citizens, that
every honorable. honest and loyal 1sraelite
will work heart and soul for the success of
the Republican ticket as we do not vote for
men but for principles. Furthermore, the
writer knows this to be fact. that, as a gen.
eral thing. every honorable 1sraelite of good
standing. and who is proud of his good name,
in this and other cities throughout the coun-
try, feels himself insulted if classed with
those who we're hanging around our camps
during the in anything but honorable
positions and never have been recognized,
and they would not now be seen in company
of those who call meetings and pass resolu-
tons aiming against the success of the Re-
publican party.

labor and brought forth mouse" and to
this will all the labor amount to of our op-
ponents in their endeavors about Grants
order. l am sure had he been their candi-

about it. Grant, Colfax and glorious sue
cess is now the watchword III common with
our fellow-citizens.
The writer offers his services from now till
after the election in anv way he can best
serve the cause of the Republican party.
Yours, respectfully, S. STRArs,

siding near Franktown, in this county, was
riding mule in his fathers meadows. The
mule not obeying the bit readily, the boy un-
dertook to substitute Spanish bit in the
place of plain American one. Tying the
mule to his leg, he proceeded to make the
change, when the animal became frightened
and ran, dragging the boy quarter of a mile
before the workmen in the meadow could
stop him. Strange as it may appear the
boy, though badly bruised, is not dangerously

would not accept II nominated, and then
| promptly accepting when nominated, and nu'
merous other sins OF like import.
The manifesto winds up with an appeal Ia
Democrats not to support so treachcrous and
unreliable a man. The record given, they say
| sets forth the shameful conduct OF the nan
who had so many favors at the hands Of the

"All accounts we hear from the rural dis
tricts in this State indicate the activity of the
friends of Grant and Colfax and the Republi-

The New York Evening Post also says; "Pri.
yate letters from the interior OF the State
assure US that Mr.. Griswold's prospects are
very favorable. He will receive the entire
vote of the party nominating him, and make
considerable inroads upon the opposition.
Letters from many persons, heretofore zeal

THINGS DOWN soUTn.-A private letter re-
|, ceiyed last evening from Brevet Lieut.. Col.
fwelsh, Fortieth U. $. Infantry, commanding
post OF WATERFORD, S. c., states that while en-.
gagged In reseuing a colored man from an
armed band Of negroes, on the 24th Of August
ult., the Colonel's force OF twenty men was
attacked by the mob, and skirmish Of seye.
raj hours duration ensued. The troops were
first fred on, and the Colonel thinks would
have been defeated, so great was the disparity
Of numbers, but for the superiority OF their
arms (breeeh-loaders) The post of WATERFORD
is some fifty miles from the railroad, which &C.
counts for the delay In the announcement by
telegraph. The Colonel gave no particulars,
being engaged In making his offcial report,
but states that the Fight was hot one.
