promise to exceed the anticipations of
even the most sanguine. The voting for
the diferept candidates is rapidly pro-
crossing, and creates no little interest.
An exquisite bouquet, in charge of Mrs.

be ratified Saturday night Don't forget
the orphans tonight.

YESTERDAY. - New Years Day was
characterized by no startling incident
with which to usher in young 1868.
Overhead were sunshine and clouds al
ternately struggling for the mastery;
beneath, snow and mud wnged similar
combat. The banks, postoffice and many
mercantile establishments we're closed,
ard so far as quietude was concerned the
city wore holiday appearance. Scarcely
any business was transacted, save by the
politicians and oflice-seekers, who fitted
about, button-holing doubtful voters and
completing preparations for the grand
contest to-day. The custom Of making
New Years calls was generally observed,
not only by unmarried gentlemen,
but largely entered into By Ben
edicks. The young unmarried and
married ladies were Eat home" re-
ceiving visitors, and dispensing sun
shine, egg-nog, laughter, wines, smiles,
confectionery and kindly greeting to all
corners, old or young, great or small
Many gentlemen were thus greeted,
twenty, thirty or forty times, at as many
different places during the day, while
those less enthusiastic contented them
selves with exchanging the compliments
of the season only with those Of their
more intimate acquaintance. All who
chose this method of opening the initial
day of the year awoke this morning with
pleasant recollections; and we hope our
readers will be able at the end of the
twelvemonth to attest that to each, 1868
was indeed Happy New Year"

In the San Andreas Register Of last week,
appeared filthy communication from this
place signed 'Phil." So far as the reference
made TO US by the dirty blackguard is con-
cerned, we should have taken no notice Of it
at all but as he takes OCCASION to cast re-
proach upon Others and speaks disparaging-
ly of the town which has endured his loath-
some presence for years justice demands that
the sneaking libeler should be unmasked.
There is but one being wearing the garb of
humanity in this county, whose natural in
stincts are low, VI gar, mean and despicablc
enough to induce him to write derisively and
insultingly of the ladies of his own town.
We know of but one who has lost all sense
of shame himself, and all respect for others
who is so utterly debased. so VIGOROUSLY
foul-mouthed, and such constitutional falls
ifier, that his name is a synonym for every
thing contemptib'e who speaks of his own
family, in public places, in manner that
would put Five Points garroter to blush,
and cause the cheek of the veriest yacabond
to tingle with shame ; who Tolls SANDER like
sweet n.orsel under his tongue. and whose
every expression seems to spring from
nauseous pool of filthy billingsgate. He has
no appreciation of kindness. You might lift
him from the gutter and place bread in his
mouth to avert death from starvation but
then the treacherous hound would snap at
your heels when you turned to leave him
The air he breathes is rendered pestlential.
and his touch is so communicating that. like
the centipede's it blasts and rots all with
which it comes in contact False to his
friends, traitorous to every cause in which
he enlsts, and totally unprincipled, villiica-
tion is his greatest delight and ca!umniating
his principal occupation. Weknow Phil, and
a majority of our readers will easily recog-
nize his portrait. In reality he is too con
temptble to merit the distinction of the
notice we have given him but it sometimes
becomes necessary TO dirty ones fingers. The
editor of the Register should not have allow
ed the spawn of such an offal place in his
columns.
