THE BATTLE SHAPING ITSELF.

The denomination of Grant by his Office
holders at Philadelphia fell on the public like
a wet blanket The better and more think
ing class of Republicans still had lingering
hope that there would be honest intelligence
and sober second thought enough in that
convention to throw Grant overheard and
take up a new man. This portion Of the
party waited, clinsins TO this faint hope with
desperate tenacity until the telegraph spoke
announcing Grant as the nominee, and as
The dreaded reality took possession of their
minds they sullenly and silently went to their
homes, under the influence Of "a political chill.
Had some other name been announced VIC
verify believe there would have been some
life and JOY expressed and some enthusiasm
manifested, at least by the old stand-bys Of
The party. This news threw the rank and
file of the party everywhere into dependency
and ill-tempcr Nowhere in the whole United
States, outside of official rings, was the least
enthusiasm manifested. Even in San Fran
cisco, with all its Federal patronage and
officials, the reception of the news seemed
to shroud the city in mourning, and tney had
to wait a week and raise mouey to purchase
Il respectable demonstration. How could i
be otherwise, when the very name of Grant
and his official thieves stink in the nostrils
of all decent people? We hoped for Grants
nomination, and We are pleased. Now comes
the light between the people and their plum
derers; between liberty and tyranny; between
honesty and roguery; between decency and de-
baucLery; between the producer and the des
po'ler, aud between God people and the devils
'mps, and the people are nearly ready for it.
1t is, "Choose You this day whom you will
serve, God or mammon;' Grant or an hon
est man. The great masses Of the people
have no interest in perpetualing corrupt
administration of the Government AID Oh c.
lift the veil and expose Grant and his thieves
10 the light OF day, and to the eyes Of the
honest masses, and the battle is won if we
can combine the opposition in one army. 1t
will be no child's play, and 10 single political
| organization now in existence can beat Grant.
Hence, we have worked, and will continue
to work, for combination of all the honest
elements opposed to him. Though Grants
nomination is received SO coldly, and with so
much evident disgust, by the masses we
must remember that he holds in his hand the
army and navy, the sword and purse, sixty
thousand officials and hundred Of thousands
of dependents; and that every hoping thief
and all the great moned corporations of the
country will join with these in the great
struggle against the people. We have, and
will have, against Grant an unpurchasablc
majority of the voters of the United States 4;
shall we combine them against him and save
our country, or shall we divide into factions
and frlter our time away? The Baltimore
Convention must answer this question.

SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DlsTRIcT. 1t will
be seen Ivy the call at lhe head Of our COL
umns to-day that Colonel b. +. Mauldn,
chairman Of the District Committee, has an
nued and superseded the the suggestive call
of the State Central Committee that Con-
sressmen be nominated 10y the delegate TO
he State Convention, by calling meeting
of the Committee of this district at Sacra-
mento on the 1lth day of July next. Tn s
is the proper action (perhaps few days
later for the meeting would have been better
as the Administration or the Associated
Press may suppress, delay or falsify the real
action of the Baltimore Convention), and we
are glad Colonel Mauldin has taken the
correct view Of the situation, and prompt
elton in the premises. The delegation from
Placer TO the State Convention are instructed
to oppose the nomination of Congressman
at the State Convention, and to take no part
in such a convention should one he organized
This is the feeling in El Dorado and Ne
vada counties, and doubtless all over the
district; bnt now the call of the chairman
removes all doubt and places the action of
the party in the correct line of precedent, in
harmony with party law, and in situation
to command and profit by emergencies that
may arise after the Baltimore Convention.

Dor, after good deal of k cking and bucking
got lis head through the Grant collar and
one leg inside the traces this week. He had
to be checked down several times and then
wouldn't; but half hitch and a screw lever
on his nose quieicd him till they put the
official clamps on his ham-strings. That
brought his head through the collar and one
leg inside the traces, but just then one of the
clamps slipped and be went to press astrad-
die of the trace chain and kicking. Some
think he will get clear in next week, while
others are of the opinion he will be perma-
nently injured by the struggle astraddle the
chain and have to be turned out to grass and
placed under the charge of an experienced
farrier for the balrnce of the campaign.
Doubts are entertained of his political life,
even with the most extreme care, but if some
oats can be got from Chappaqua farm, he
may recover Grants fodder disagrees with
him, and will neither digest nor lie on his
stomach. lfGorham had not been sleeping
on Grant fodder we think he would recover.

POLICE lTEMs.-John Smith, who wa
arrested on the charge Of breaking and en-
tering the store house of Shields & Cary,
was discharged this morning, the accusa-
ton not being substantiated.
James Leonard alias Bastible and Chas.
Roland alas Chas. Pass, charged with
being deserters from the United States
navy, were arrested in this city last night.
An examination into the case has been
postponed until the 2Gth. In the meantime
such inquiries will be made as will throw
light upon the charge.
The colored youth named Perry, who
was arrested by Dan Wren, few days
ago with valuable gold watch in his
possession, turns out to be a Norfolk
burglar, and the watch is part of the
property stolen from citizen of that
place, a telegram having been received by
the detective establishing these facts.
Perry will probably be turned over to the
authorities of Norfolk.
Several parties were fined for drunken
ness and disorderly conduct.
