Aid to the Mountain Counties.

The embarrassed situation of the mountian
counties generally has provoked considerable
discussion and it is pretty certain that all propo-
sition asking for aid from the State will be op-
posed by the agricultural counties and fail. In
view Of the fact that the policy of selling the
mineral lands 10 this State will undoubtedly
prevail, the Mountain Democrat, of Placerville,
recommends that the Legislature ask Congress
to have these lands surveyed and donated to the
State for the benefit of the mining counties where
located that the price should be fixed at 81 to
So per acre, and the proceeds go to extinguish-
ing the county debt first, and the surplus be
paid into the school fund of the State. This
course will injure none, and benefit all, and is
far preferable, in the opinion o: the above jour-
nal, TO selling such lands at 20 cents per acre to
be gobbed up by Spectators. In our opinion
this is the most sensible suggestion made with
reference to this matter. Every miner having a
valuable claim would like to have an unques-
toned title to it and this plan, while it would
benefit all would injure none. We have not the
slightest doubt that the sale of the mining and
agricultural lands in this county would pay our
entire indebtedness and increase our popu-
lation and taxable property. Congressman
Sargent has introduced a bill to enable miners
to obtain patent for mineral lands at So so
per acre. Mining ground not worth this sum is
not worth having. With proper restrictions to
prevent wholesale purchase and monopoly by
spectators, such bill, with clause giving the
proceeds of such sales to the counties will do
more for the mining districts tban anything yet
proposed, and we think is all that they require.
We are heartily in favor of this plan and sug-
gest prompt action in forwarding petitions to
our representatives at Washington asking them
to move in the matter forthwith.

The Fifteenth Amendment,

The fifteenth amendment has already been rat
flied by twenty-six States, and but two more are
needed. 1t is almost certain that it will be as
sented to by more than the requisite number.
The present Legislature of New York having re-
cinded the action had at the preceding session,
the Ohio Legislature Offset this by doing the
same thing, thus making a stand-off The rati-
fcation of the amendment being a foregone con-
clusion, the following, taken from the Marys-
vile APpsal-under the heading of /" Prepare to
Pucker"-is directly in point
The Democrats who have walled and wept and
cursed and damned over the "enormties" of the
fifteenth amendment, may as well prepare to act
under It. We know it is Oppressive" to "reb-
els obnoxious to men who hate colored peo-
pie from Misunderstanding to the "secesh," who
look upon it as the crowning triumph of the
Union cause-and " Irritating" to the peculiar
friends of the ex-President of the ex-slavehold-
ers Confederacy. But " What can't be cured
must be endured, and the defeated party in the
field, at the balot-box, in Congress and in the
supreme court will now show evidences of great
philosophy by cheerfuy submitting to the
"powers that be, and greater sense and sapac-
NY by letting the dead bury the dead and start
ing out anew in the political field. The fifteenth
amendment will rnquestionaby be declared as
ratified IN few days, and henceforward white
and colored citizens, in every State of our Re-
public, are politically equal. Every citizen will
have the right of franchise and be competent to
vote and be voted for. Under this State of facts,
we advise our Democratic friends to cheerfully
accept the situation, and begin to look pretty
toward the colored voters of this State, who, in
close contested election may hold the balance
OF power. Fellow Democrats take your future
brethren by the hand and confess your "subjuga-
ton" Do it quick, because the colored voters
of the State are intelligent, and their prejudices
are to be overcome By kind acts and good treat
ment. We do not mean to advise you to court
their wives or daughters" that's played out 4"
but walk up and acknowledge the principle
upon which our government is based-that the
majority shall rule.

TRUTHFUL SUMMARY.-The Sacramento Record,
in reporting the Legislative proceedings of last
week, epitomises carefully prepared Demo-
cratic argument against the fifteenth amend
ment. Like one of Nasbys letters, if it were
not truth it would be outrageonsy absurd. A
comparison with the original will convince
readers that the Record reporter simply con-
densed into as few words as possible the sub
stance of a lengthy speech:
Henley, of Sonoma, took the nigger and shook
him until be was black in the face, then he
smashed his hat over his eyes, and mashed him,
and plugged him under the jaw, set his nose up
on his forehead, huttoned his ears back, busted
him in the bugle, split his conk, pasted him on
the smeller, tapped his claret, damned him, col
lapsed his bread-basket, spread his potato trap
all over his face, " brad-awed " him-all this
metaphorically of course-and when he conclu-
ded, the nigger was very completely arnihilated
and Henley was somewhat exhausted for his
vigorous exercise.

BIG HORN VALLEY.-A mining expedition is
now organizing in Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory,
to explore this famons valley. 1t is believed to
posses great mining resources as we'll as agri-
cultural, pastoral, climate and other advantages
Although in latitude As degrees 80 minutes, the
southern part of the valley has the climate of
Tennessee. 1t is about 400 miles from Chey-
enne. Herds of elk antelope and buffalo roam
in the northern part. The atmosphere is WON
derfully pure, elastic and clear, giving vigorous
health and far-sighted vision. We extract from
the Cheyenne Leader the following facts about
this district. 1t says:
"The greatest natural curiosity of the upper
country is the Big Horn canyon, by which the
river flows through the mountains 1t is 60
miles long, and from a-haf to three-quarters of a
mile in depth, with its sides beautifully tringed
with trees an trailing vines, and the rocky sur
face taking every form that art could give to
stone. Here ;he big horn sheep, the grizzly and
black bear, the wolf and the fox, in great num-
bers, make their homes. One of these days, and
ere long too, the tourist will visit this spot and
the invalid will make pilgrimages here 10 search
of health and pleasure, and the traveller will talk
of the Big Horn mountains and canyons as he
now does of Rome and the Alps When the
Indians shall have been taught or made to live
upon their fair share of the public domain and
when civilization shall have reduced the wild
ness OF these mountains and valleys, they will
be famed for their beauty and prosperity. The
opening up of this rich country for settlement
and development with all its rich minerals, it's
vast pastoral and agricultural resources, will af-
ford to thousands good home with the bright
est prospects for wealth."

Pomeroy gives the following as the status of the

The Democratic party of the United States is

Its wants are not numerous, but severe.
1t wants brains.
1t wants honesty.
1t wants pluck.
1t wants unity Of action.
1t wants integrity Of purpose.
In fact, there is no Democratic party in the

THE BRAD-AwL STATEsMAN.-Under this cap
zion the Nevada Transcript has this:
Since the explanatory speech OF Barclay Hen
ley in which he said, speaking Of the fifteenth
amendment: We may resist it in the manner
in which the {" Plug Uglies' resisted the Irish
men and putchmen in Baltimore. We may pro-
vide overselves possibly with pegging-awls, and
when a negro or Chinaman, or possibly Repub-
lican comes up to vote, we will prig him lit
tie, he has been designated as the " brad-awl
statesman" Having resided at Baltimore at The
time the Plugs" inaugurated their remarkable
tactics, we will give description of them which
may serve as a note of explanation to Mr.. Hem
leys speech. The " Plug Uges' carried in
scribed upon their transparencies the motto
"We're awl here, " over which was the picture
of an ordinary brad-awl At the election of
1856 these fellows took possession of all the poll
ing places in Baltimore city, with the exception
of the eighth ward. Every man of them
armed with one of these avis. When poor
Irshman offered to vote they gathered around
him and began prickng the poor fellow at such
lively rate that he was glad to get out of reach
and thus lose his vote. On the day of the NUM-
cipial election and the Presidential contest,
bloody riots and murders occurred in every quar-
ter of the city, and with the exception Of one
ward, rs we see stated, the roughs controlled
the city, marching in bands of 6fty or more, and
voting at every poll in twenty wards of the city.
Men boasted of having voted as high twenty
times within two hours And this is the exam
pie Mr.. Henley comments. We would suggest
for his benefit the policy of the Blood Tubs
which was less cruel than that Of the I" Plug
Ugies," but equally eficatious. Their quarters
of the city was among the slaughter houses, and
they were " butcher boys" They kept sponges
soaked in blood, and when they saw crowd OF
unfortunate Irishmen coming toward the polls,
sponge concealed in hand they would sally out.
The Irishmen would be surprised by a blow in
the face, and the blood would fly from the
sponge in every direction. The poor fellows,
imagining that they had been terribly injured
would leave the polls in great hurry and not
return again. Should the issue be mace on the
fifteenth amendment which Henley suggests, the
sponge and blood tubs would be as effective as
| the hrad-awl.
