THE CALIFORNIA xlxcr1ox.

Sufficient returns have been re-
ceived to show that Booth has been
elected Governor of California by
about 1000 majority. 1t is the old,
old story: No less than one million
of the money OF the people of
the United States having been
used to perpetuate the power of
the Republicans and the monop-
olies. A Senator and three Con-
gressmen were to elect, and
Uncle Sans money poured out free
~ to elect them. Two thousand men
were sent to the Mare Island Navy
Yard where 200 cannot find work.
at an expense of not less than $780,
600. Votes we're openly purchased
and paid for on the streets of Sacra-
mento, Stockton and San Francisco.
At Mare Island, says one of our
California exchanges, the workmen
were driven to the polls, like sheep,
and made to vote a ticket a half-inch
wide, with very small type, which
was given them just as they went to
vote. The victory in California WAS
gained by the Administration at
Washington yer the people, and
not by the Republican party over
the Democrats.
Pretty full returns from % coun-
ties give Booth 5000 majority. OF
the remaining 81 counties, Grant
carried IL and Seymour 10-the lat
ter having an aggregate majority in
all those counties yet to hear from
of one vote. If Booth exceeds
Grants relative mo joke vote in the
Il counties yet to hear from in the
same ratio as he has exceeded it in
the 90 heard from, it is fair to pre-
sumo that his majority in the State
will be about 1900. He ran con-
siderably ahead of the Republican
State ticket, but that, too, is Doubt
less elected as an entirety. Private
money and personal popularity and
unpopularity playedtheir usual part
in the local contests ; butthe Federal
greenbacks used throughout the
State told heavily in favor of the
Radical candidates for Congress and
the Legislature. 1t would be we'll
for tue sober thinkers of all parties
throughout the country to ask them
selves if this using of the public
money TO perpetuate the power of a
party VIGOROUSLY corrupt bodies any
good for the people.

"RIcuaosD, Sept. s5, 1871.
1t appears that in the Polish synagogue Ken
nesseth Israel alone, that a man like p. Bowman,
who swears falsely the whole year through, from
one Atonement day until the other, and informs
against tatheis of families and members of his
congregation, was elected and honored as presi-
dent by the members and congregation. 1t is
wrong to have man like p Bowman for pres
ident, who robs, and commits such deeds as the
following:
HE has committed iniquity and acted presump-
tuously;
'He has committed violence, fraud and false
hood;
''He has uttered lies under oath and caused
others to do so;
''He has rebelled and gone astray, knowing it
to be so, and caused others to swear falsely.
"He has corrupted many, running the fathers
OF families. On the 30th of May, 1870 in a case
of S. Morris, whom p Bowman employed to
close Isaac Jacobs store, and claimed as his own,
with intent to rob said Isaac Jacobs, he (P. Bow
man, auctioneer and commission merchant }
stood security, swearing before Robert Howard,
then clerk of the Chancery Court, that he was
possessor of large amount of real estate in the
city OF Richmond. The case was tried, and went
against Morris He (Bowman) knowing that ia
cobs had the records searched by Mr. Clopton,
attorney at law, and that he found nothing there
but 81, 500 worth of personal property, on which
he paid $lS75 tax, p. Bowman, auctioneer and
commission merchant, then had S. Morris (whom
he carries in his pocket to carry the to the
Court of Appeals. T.. Bowman again attempted
TO become security before Mr.. Berry, now cerl
of the Chancery Court, and stated again that he
had real estate in the city. Mr.. Berry told Bow
man that he had sworn before Bob Howard tina
he had such property, which was not so, anC
that he could not play such a trick on him.
| In short, p Bowman has committed mor
wrong deeds than those prohibited in our Hol,
Bible. No later than last Saturday, the 23d o
September, he (Bowman) after his brother-in
law (their minister) had gotten through his cere
monies, he (Bowman) went and testified in
| case that he was informer OF, and swore falsely
| and was recognized to appear Tuesday, the 26tl
of September, the day after Atonement Is

THE REASON WHY.

The absence of Colonel Daniels, who is
the enemy of the iniquities of the funding
bill, and who is the author of the article
published in the JOURNAL, in relation to the
subject, will account for the non-appearance
of reply to the article of the Enquirer of
this morning.
Colonel Daniels has weakness for con-
Tossing his errors, and will cheerfully do so
if wrong; but we are disposed to doubt
the insinuation of the Enquirer, that the
statements concerning the funding bill were
either criminal or bfunders.
The JOURNAL has, fortunately, "blun-
dered" on number of facts connected
with the Funding Bill and the manner of
its passage, and has thundered it into them
so strong, that Democracy in Virginia is so
divided upon the subject, that no man in
the Valley or Southwest, with legislative
ambitions, dare defend it.

Public Meeting in Henrico.

zb Lte Editor Of the State Journal
A meeting was held on Saturday, the
23d day of September, 1871, at Deep Run
second district of Tuckahoe township, to
take action in regard to the 'sfence law"

The following preamble and resolutions
were offered by John T.. Jones, Esq, and
unanimously adopted: A

duty of freemen, to step forth, and boldly and
frankly declare their opinions regarding the

presentatiyes and their Governor, in yetoing
the Bill 303, who. according to correct prin-

whom resides the sovereign power; and that the
rights of the people of the second district of

The Evening News Answered.

To the Editor orhe State Journal
The Ereniag Ne,cs propounds the follow
ing: "Con.-Who penned the ordinance OF
secession ?-Flegenhemer, the defeated
German Radical aspirant."
Admit that he did, what of it? His
profession was that Of teacher of penman-
ship, book keeping and card writing,
and he was employed to g. pen
the ordinance of secession" because he
was first-class in his business, not that he
advocated the passage of any such ordi-
nance. The reflection attempted to be cast,
is not only undeserved, but most unjust,
and not at all creditable to any journal.
The same paper also propounds another
con, viz: "Who in Richmond sold more
blockade goods than any one else during
the war, thereby conniving at this surrep-
titious traffic with rebels, and giving aid
comfort to the enemy ?-Horace L. Kent"
Now, we deny this assertion in toto celo,
and defy the Nems to establish any such
fact.
1t would seem as if political bias and
prejudice has made the Neacs blind, or less
indulgence would be given to views, which
are found in no other city paper.

WE make the following extracts from the
New York Herald's account of the pro-
ceedmgs of the late Republican Convention.
In many respects, its report is SO garbled
and incorrect, we are unwilling to publish
the whole of it:
After an exciting debate, which was rich, racy
and personal in the extreme j. Amber Smith, a
young and rising Republican, and son-in-law of
Senator Lewis, was agreed upon as the tempora-
ry chairman of the Convention and the Hon.
Charles III, Porter as the permanent chairman.
These two points settled, and the members
pledged to the utmost secrecy as to the stormy
and bitter ma ture OF the mornings proceedings,
the doors We're opened and Ex-Governor Wells
called the Convention to order at +. M. Ac-
oording to the cut-and-dried programme, j. Am
bier Smith was unanimously elected temporary
chairman,
A letter was read from Colonel Robert Hughes,
the head OF the party in the State, who WAS alb
sent at the Baltimore Commercial Convention.
He strongly endorsed General Grant foc re6ec-
ton, giving reasons why he should be the stan
dard-bearer of the party that there We're nu-
merous preeedents for holding second term
that their party was now entering upon the Pc
tersburg of their second campaign, and his re-
election would soon bring it to its Appomattox,
when the mission of the party would be fulfilled
that Grants administration had been in full ac-
cord with the principles of the Republican party
that the debt had been greatly reduced, with n
prospect of an early reduction of taxation, and
that it was the duty of the Convention to endorse
General Grant as had been. done by nearly all
the State Republican Conventions already held
The reading of the letter was received with ap-

THE "NATIoNAL VIRGINIAN" jest
ING.-We did think our neighbor of the
National Vuynian was gentleman of too
much dignity and sincerity to indulge in
jokes and poke fun at his own friends.
The following, which we take from the
VTginian of this morning, shows that
friend Maddox is a decidedly clever jester.
In advising Republicans to register, and if
refused, he adds:
See that your name is properly registered, or
promptly appeal to the County Judge, or Hus-
tings Court Judge, to compel a correction.
If this isn't offering stone for bread,
and salt water to quench thirst, then we
ale mistaken. Come, Maddox! the Con-
veIltion has turned your head; for you
know 'twould do no good to act upon your
suggestion. Try again, and see if you
can't do better, and give us something more
tangible.

DEMOCRATIC NoMINATIoNs.-C
Edmund Pendleton, of Botetourt, has re-
ceived the nomination of the Democratic
party of his district for the Senate. Colo
mel Pendleton was opposed in the nomi-
mating convention by Colonel G. W. Hans
brough, of Roanoke, and Lewis R. Mann,
Of Allegheny. Pendleton was a member
of the last Legislature, and bitter oppo-
ncnt of General Mahone's railroad policy.
The nomination of Colonel Pendleton was
scarcely expected, as it was supposed even
his own county would be opposed to him.
1t is rumored that William NJ. Lakeland,
of Botetourt, will be an independent candi-
date in opposition to the regular nominee.
We hope the report is correct.
