The Sacramento Bee, in announcing
the result of the Marysville Convention,
has the following good word for our can
didate:
"A better selection than that of Coghlan
it would be difficult to make. Reed would
have been good candidate but probably
Coghlan will poll more votes in Lake and
Mendoclno counties than Reed would
were he the nominee. COghlan is a young
man, Of fne Abilities and pursues the prac-
tice of law. He was elected to the Legis-
lature from Napa and Lake, in the face of
a Demot ratio majority of some three hund-
red votes, and afterward was put forward
for the Senate in that District against W.
w. Pendegast, one of the most popular
Democrats in that part of the State. AL
though defeated, as any Republican was
sure to be, Coghlan polled six hundred
votes more than any other man on the Re
publican ticket He is personally one Of
the most popular men in the State wherev
er known. Although an outspoken Re
publican, and in 1866 the leader of that
party in the Assembly, he never fails to
uid" l'ol ''e DeuocldlIc parry huDuTeuS
votes. Just at this time the Republi-
cans could not have named man who
would be more sure of carrying the Third
District than Coghlan is He will sweep
it by from l,00J to 1000 majority aud
when elected California viii fad that she
has one Congressman who will ever be
alive to the interests of the people, and
whose course will reflect credit upon the
Republican party aud command the re-
spect OF Democrats. Coghlan's name will
add strength even to the State ticket,
especially in the Third District, and will
aid materially in bringing about Repub-
Gcan victory next fall"

MEN OF SAN FRAACISCON WILL
OPPOSE HIS ELECTION.

The National Labor Union, Settlers,
League, Ship Jeiners Association, knights
of St. Crispin, and other Labor Organlza-
tions, of San Francisco, united in passing
the following resolutions, and deputized
Committee to have them printed aid cir
cuIated among the delegates to the late
Democratic State Convention, which was
done. to the CONSERVATION of the "unterri-
fed"
Whereas, his Excelleucy, Gov. Haight,
by bis past official record, has exhibited
such want of moral courage, manliness
and character, as has left US in doubt wheth-
er very many of his official acts were in
fuenced by ignorance and short-sighted-
ness or corruption
While he has sanctioned laws to author
ize subsidies to railroads, by taxation on
the private property Of individuals, he has
persistently declared such legislation un-
constitutional and wrong
Having solemnly sworn to support the
Constitution of this State, which specially
prohibits lotteries, he weakly, or corruptly,
endorsed law, authorizing the Mercantile
Library Lottery
While preaching the gospel of economy,
he has put in practice, and encouraged,
the existence of the corrupt measure es of
the Legislature of "a thousand Commits
sions-"
Thereby saddling on the people of San
Francisco millions of dollars of indebted
ness, for the benefit of political favorites-
While making loud protestations in favor
of the protection of white labor, and the
elevation of the laboring men, he has pub
licly and officially encouraged the immi-
grafton of Mongolian labor, degraded
and debased people, to compete with and
depress the American laborer. Therefore
Resolved, Governor, Haight judged by
his official record, is unworthy rhe conf
dence aud support of the workingmen of
this State; he is too short-sighted to per-
ceive, and too weak minded to properly
discharge the duties of the Office Of Gov
nor of the State of California.
Resolved, That there is good reason to
believe, and we do believe. that while pro-
Tossing to be the antisubsidy candidate
vote, he is silently carrying with him a
subsidy candidate for Lieutenant Gov-
ernor.
And, that if he be elected, he will resign
for the United States Senatorship, placing
the subsidy Lieutenant Governor over an
anti-subsidy people
Resolved, that the action of Cove rnor
Haight, in vetoiug the bill passed for the
protection of Hutchings and Lamon, set
tiers on the public lands under the pre-
emption laws of the United states, indi-
Gates an utter disregard of the laws of our
country, and the rights Of workingmen ;
and his attempt to deprive those settlers
of their rights through the Courts, was a
fragrant outrage on the rights Cf all set
tiers on the public domain
Resolved, That for these, and other good
reasons, the workingmen of San Francisco,
are opposed to the nomination aud election
of I'll. Ii Haight, Governor Of this State,
and we hereby pledge ourselves to work
and vote against him, and thereby defeat
his election

Dr.. Lemuel R. Brattan.

At meeting of the session of the Gonzales
Presbyterian church, held June 9th, 1871, the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted in regard to the
death of Dr. Lemuel r. Brattan, late of Gonzales,
Texas.
Whereas, 1t has pleased our Heavenly Father,
in his al-wise and inscrutable providence, to re-
move from our midst our dearly beloved friend and
brother, DR.. l.. R. BrattaD. whose counsels in our
sessions we shall always miss, and whose Chris.
tan consistency and deep toned piety we should
ever eudeavor to initiate therefore, as an express
sion Of our great loss, as members Of society, OF
the Church of God and the session of this church,
of which he was brilliant ornament, be it,
Resolved. lst That, recognizing in the death of
our departed brother the Christening hand OF our
Heavenly Father, who doth not afflict willingly,
nor grieve the children of men" it is our duty to
bow submissively to his holy and righteous will.
End. That III the irreproachable and blameess
life, the elevated Christian character the deep and
fervent piety, and the peaceful, happy and tri'
umphant death, of our late friend and brother, the
Church of Christ has sustained no ordinary loss,
and has thus bequeathed to it the rich and price.
less legacy Of bright example, worthy of all
imitation.
3rd. That, as members of the Christian Church,
we adore the Astounding grace of God, which was
so conspicuously exemplifed in the life and death
OF our lamented brother, and by that same rich
and all sustaining grace, which made him what he
was. it shall be our faithful endeavor to initiate
the many Christian virtues Of our excellent broth
er, and to follow him, cas- he followed Christ.

formation that we can gather from every source,
that we consider the Christian people of the South
generally -clergymen, laymen, laywomeu, and
especially the religious edtors-to be as hostile IN
feeling to the Government of the Uuited States
and the people Of the North, as ever before.
1--WE will 90 farther and say that We regard these
who are known as Christian people in the South,
as having been, and as being now, even more OPP
posed to the restoration of good feeling between
the two sections than the politicians and the men
Of the world. y
s. Did not the writer of the above declare at the
same time that he was perfectly conscious OF cher
shing only the most kindly feelings towards these
abomiuabe traitors and sinners, aud did he not
express at various times the most loving desire
(sjt veata rerbo) to get them back, just as they
were, into the same Church connection with him
self?
6 All this being 50, is there net room for some
other people beside himself being filed with
amazement, pity and disgust They are at the
same time impressed with the conviction that 1t is
all eminently characteristic, and worthy of being
studied for its philosophy its Christianity, and Its
civilization. 1t all illustrates the difference be-
tween ing Or and yours" and if there are 'somc
doubts about the Millennium being pear,' there is
at least more than one fact giving rise to them.

CHARLESTON, S. c., juno s, 1871.
Mr.. Editor:-I beg to acknowledge through
your paper the receipt of the Record Book of South
Carolina Presbytery for the years 1866, which
was taken by Federal soldiers during the war;
This book was committed to my hands at the late
meeting of the General Assembly at Huntsville,
by the Rev. j. Fl. Bryson, with the request that
would secure its return to its righful owners The
manner of the recovery of this book was as fol-
lows: After the close of the war, several trunks,
which had been in the hands of Federal soldiers,
were sold at Nashville, Tenn, and DR.. John B.
Crockett, who was present at the opening of one
of them, discovered this book and secured it, in
order to return it to South Carolina Presbytery.
Through him it passed into the hands of the Rev.
DIR. Moore, and was sent by DR.. Moore, by the
hands of Mr.. Bryson, to the General Assembly,
where it was intrusted to me. 1t is to DR.. Crock
EFT and his brother, George B. Crockett, Esq,
that South Carolina Presbytery will be indebted
for the recovery of this invaluable record and relic
hold the book, waiting for favorable and safe
opportunity to forward it to the Stated Clerk of
South Carolina Presbytery.
Yours truly, @. S. VEDDER.

A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

At meeting of the students, en- naSSe, Of Da-
wilson College on the 28th of June, 1871, the fol
lowing preamble and resolutions, relative to the
death of their late President, the Rev. G Wilson
McPhail D. d., were unanimously adopted.
Whereas 1t has pleased the All wise governor
of the universe, in His nscrutable providence,
under most peculiar and trying circumstances, to
remove from us our honored President and be-
loved pastor; it seems proper that we as students
should express how deeply we feel the loss of him
to whose labors we are so much indebted, whose
virtues we SO greatly admire and whose memory
we will ever foudly cherish. Therefore be it,
Resolved, lst That our country, our Church,
aud especially our College has sustained in the
death of Rev. G. Wilson McPhail, d. D., an ir
reparable loss-that the cause of science and liter
allure has lost one of its ablest advocates-and
that in his eminent career we recognize such a
blending of those Christian virtues which make
man great and good as lis seldom found in the char
acter OF any one man.
Resolved, End That while we sadly mourn the
loss of the man and Christian, yet we meekly bow
to the rod that has smiten US and recognize in this
terrible dispensation the hand OF loving Father
who chastenoth those whom He loveth
ReSoycd, 3rd. That since scenes OF festiVty and
pleasure i'll beft these solemn circumstances-tha
since the merry laugh of gaety should be melted
into tears of sorrow therefore we cheerfully con-
cur with the Trustees and aculty in dispensing
with Commencement exercise
Resolved, 4th. That we tender CIR expressions
Of deepest sympathy to the afflicted friends and
family in this their sad bereavement
ResolUed, 5th. That copy Of these resolutions
be sent to the family of the deceased and that they
be published iu the North Carolina Presbyterian,
