THREATENING ALREADY.

General Preston made a speech at Louis
vile after the Democratic nominations had
been made, and in the course of it he took
line which is certainly quite natural to
Southern Democrat, but which is hardly
compatible with the "truly loyal atti-
tude the Northern Democracy are just now
endeavoring to assume. He congratulated
his audience upon the fact that Hancock
was soldier, saying, "They talk to me of
pacific candidates, but I have beer so
6. long under pacific leaders that want
little powder and ball now. Even if it
comes from the other side again, let us
" have it. He then declared that it was
necessary to take bold, aggressive stand.
and to ''tell every Republican that if they
ever attempt TO steal another electoral
/" vote from you you will kill him wher-
ever he stands. Tell them, to the devil
% with their bonds, but that you propose
that another electoral vote shall never be
" stolen from you again" He said further ::
& If you viii only keep up the old Demo
''.cratic flag, and elect Hancock,
pledge you my life and fortune
" that no man viii dare to take the
- Presidency from his grasp. They
may have taken it from the old and
kindly hand of Tilden, but, before God,
81 would as soon seek to take the meat
= from under the paw OF hungry tiger as
to let the visiting statesmen steal Han
q cocks victory" This is & Ercles' vein.
General Preston no doubt suits his talk to
his latitude, however lie knows that his
Southern audience are not pacific, and that
they regard Hancock nomination as a
possible means Of reversing the verdict Of
the war. At the very outset of the cam
paign they arc told that it may be neces-
sary to fight for the Presidency, and mean
time the population of the South is being
carefully increased in order to manufacture
zuajorities sufficient to solidify everything.
This is not the first time that Northern
and Southern Democratic talk has dis
agreed, but it is specially desirable this
year that the Northern Democrats should
not be embarrassed by their fre-eating
Southern friends, since it behooves them to
play out their new role of loyal aud patri-
otto citizens, who always favored the Union
cause, and who have always been yearning
for Union General as their candidate.

THE FESTIVAL OF TIE BAsTILE.

Paris is making great preparations for the
celebration of the Festival of the Capture
of the Bastile, which momentous event oc-s
Cured on the 18th of July, 1883. The
French residents in the United States
are eager to join in the national celebra-
ton, and as will be seen from an address
we print elsewhere, the patriotic French
men of Sacramento propose to add their
mite to the congratulations. The taking
of the Bastile was indeed great event for
France. It was the triumph of the People
over the hideous system of feudalism which
for so many centuries had crushed the
French masses, and which had at length
fatally corrupted the aristocracy, and I'M
dermined the dynasty. The Bastile was
the embodiment of irresponsible Power
1t was the disdainful answer Of Royalty
to the appeals of the people. Its grim and
dreadful cells had closed over every feeble
effort at progress and justice made by
patriotic souls, for generations. 1t had
served the fierce and cruel aristocrats as an
earthly Hell. where they could consign
their enemies. 1t was natural that it
should have become the focus of popular
hatred and loathing, and that when in the
fullness of time its doom was sealed, the
infuriaied populace should rend its very
stones apart, with vindictiveness which
sought in the passive granite some power of
suffering vengeance. The Bastile was
terrible nightmare, and the Revolution
dispelled it. Nor could it have fallen
more fifty or dramatically. To the last
its black walls and frowning battlements
doomed sternly over Paris. To the last
it remained cruel and defiant But when
it fell there was no resurrection for it or
for the system it symbolized, and feudal
ism received its death wound when the
chains of the drawbridge were broken, and
all Paris poured shrieking for revenge over
the echoing planks. Americans may well
sympathize with Frenchmen over this
event, for it was the dawning of Liberty
for France. Then for the first time it
seemed possible that all the overshadowing
might, all the pomp and circumstance of
royalty, might be susceptible of popular
influence. There for the first time the
masses learned that they could do some
thing besides endure. And in truth all
human progress is the taking of fresh
Bastiles, where intolerance, and bigotry,
and caste pride, and cruelty, ever seek to
intrench themselves, and whence, if they
succeed, they scatter plaques uponmankind.
"Down with the Bastile (" is a typical
war-cry of Progress, and France may well
celebrate with all her energies and powers
the glorious day when her Fortress of
Privilege was cast down, and Gods sun
first shone full and fair upon the uplifted
faces of the common people.

WHAT GENERAL DEvggs THINKS.


Attorney General Devens believes that
"it IS the determination of the Democratic
''Ieaders at the South not to permit the
Republicans to organize nor to conduct
an active campaign in any of the States
Of the South except Virginia" He states
chat it Wiz be impossible for the Govern
naent to appoint any election officers in tie
South, for that notice has already been
given that whoever accepts such positions
will do so at the risk of his life. His IN
formation satisfies him that thorough pre-
parations have been and are being made to
carry the South solid on the shotgun plan,
and that the Government. being powerless
to prevent this, must stand by with folded
hands and witness the process of Mexican
ization. The Democrats knew what they
were doing when they cut down the army,
as matter of course. They have been
clearing the ground for this campaign dur
ing the past four years. The South will
no doubt be carried by the shotgun il it is
carried at all. and there remains
only one remedy, namely the active
Republican campaign in that region
which we have already shown
the need of. The Southern bull
siczers can suppress the Republican vote
there. They can abuse the negroes. They
can prevent free speech. But what they
cannot do is TO keep the knowledge OF
their outrages from the Northern people,
and therefore what the Republicans should
do is to force them to show their hand.
Northern speakers must go down to the
South and call meetings. Then let the
bulldozers come out and break them up.
The exposure of their policy is the one
thing which they cannot withstand, and it
is precisely the one thing which will de-
stroy the Democracy if it is properly han
died. The American people viii never
countenance the party which is responsible
FOR the Mexicanization of the South, but
they want full evidence of the wrong, and
this it is the duty of the Republican
leaders to supply, and by the method in
dicated.

ing purposes in the manufacture of paper.
Quite near the mills is piece OF land lying
lower than the canal, and this the company
proposes to FIJI with water to the extent of
about three acres. Pipes will conduct the
water from the canal bank into bed of
gravel some eight feet in thickness, through
which it will pass, and it is expected that
the filtering aud the subsequent standing
of the water in the reservoir will purify it
sufficiently. The water viii be about ten
feet deep on an average, ard will be
pumped from a point about midway be-
tween the surface and the bottom. The
experiment is a new one, and will be
watched with interest.

SALT LAKE, July 12th.-A letter received
here this evening from Green River says
Seventy-fve prospectors from Leadville have
located a camp on the headwaters of Brush
Creek, Uintah mountains, 10 miles east OF
Salt Lake They have discovered body OF
carbonate ore 5000 feet in length. assaying
from $500 to 500 in silver, and have located
for eight miles. This new camp is in Utah,
and it has been known that prospectors were
in that section Of the Territory, but the
story of the big find is almost incredible.

The SUBSTITUTION OF STEEL FOR IgeS.-
The substitution of steel for iron has made
another step in advance, and in direction
where, ii the the hopes of the inventors
arc justified by the result, we may expect
TO see considerable changes. Hitherto
the metal work of our ordinary
driving carriages has been wholly
iron, except in those instances where the
partial introduction of steel took the place
of an additional ornament. A well known
coach. building firm at the East has now on
view the specimen of carriage built
wholly of steel-spring, tire, framework,
etc; and it is calculated that the saving in
weight will be nearly % per cent, with
possibly bette results in the future whilst
Tor supporting wear and tear the prefer
ence for steel over iron viii, when its ad-
vantages are known, be as strongly in
dorsed by owners OF carriages as they now
are by directors and managers of railroads.
