Political Rot-Buckley.


The Chronicle of the 10Th inst. has 9
cock and bull story about Christophe,
Buckley's movements in Southern Cali.
fornia. That gentleman and a few
friends having concluded to sample a
little of our Southern California air, with
. view to their health or a summer out
ing, Mr.. De Young's paper has started in
to make a terrible hullabaloo about it,
and conspiracies without number are to
be unearthed. According to the vera
cious scribe who manipulates the flap
doodle department of the Chronicle, Mr..
Buckley is now in San Diego. There, it
Is stated, he and Mr.. Driscoll have had
conferences with Mayor Hunsaker and
County Clerk Dodge. In ccnse-
quence of these Machiavellian machi.
nations, the Great Register is
to be manipulated in the interest oi
the Democrats, and so on. and 30 forth,
etcetera and abracadabra, and much
more mysterious formula. Buckley
lambs in large numbers are down in
San Diego pretending to be converted
Republicans, on the Greeks bearing gifts
order. They are to worm themselves in
to the confidence of the Republican lead
ers and do a miching malicho business
generally. After all that has been ac-
complished, Mr.. Buckley, according to
the Chronicle, is to come up to Los Ange-
les and 60 through the same operations
here.
How absurd all this is? Mr.. Buckley
gave to reporter of the HERALD per-
fectly clear and intelligent account of the
motives of his visit to Southern Califor-
mia. He stated that he stopped over at
Los Angeles to allow his friends to enjoy
the races, being disabled by his physical
infirmity from seeing them himself. His
ruling idea in coming south was to
show some Eastern relatives the south
ern country with view to inducing
them to settle here, and to benefit his
own health, suffering from over-confine-
ment. He laughed at the roorbacks of
the Times, said that he supposed the
people of Southern California could at
tend to their own political affairs, that
he knew nothing about them and cared
nothing about them only in so far as he
hoped, in common with other Democrats,
to hear a good account from the Los An
geles Democracy. He added that he
was going down to San Diego to spend
some time at the Hotel Coronado, and
that he would take the steamer thence
for San Francisco when his little outing
had come to an end.
What frightful amount of twaddle to
write about the movements, on pleasure
intent, of man who has has his hands
full in the city and county of San Fran
cisco? The Chronicle and the Times of
this city insult the intelligence of their
readers by publishing such unspeakable
trash. 1t is the old cry of "stop thief"
We may be assured that some deeply
laid and cunning Republican scheme is
on foot or there would not be all this
about nothing. The Dem
ocracy of Southern California only ask
fair field and no favor. They will be
perfectly content if they can keep Re-
publican officials, like County Clerk
Dunsmcor, from repeating their Dem
ocrat-disfranchising tricks of two years

NEW TARIFF BILLS.
Representative Breckinridge, of Ar
kansas, introduced five tariff bills to-day.
AS stated in the titles, they are intended
to correct certain abuses arising under
the present tariff laws, and Breckinridge
defines these abuses more closely as
growing out of a system of trusts. He
does not expect the general tariff bill to
pass during this session of Congress, and
he introduces these bills in the hope that
Congress may put check upon trusts by
passing these specific bills, reducing the
duties on the articles on which they op.
crate.

mind from the doctrines carried to them
by the missionaries especially the doc
trines involving the eternal destiny of
mankind-ther would be large con-
census of pagan opinion against the
doctrines underlying the modern Evan
gelical missionary movement.
1t is remarkable with such instances
as above constantly brought to atten-
ton, that the American Board cannot
see the propriety of sending out min
listers who cherish the larger hope and
who could conscientiously carry to the
pagan world a Gospel that would give
comfort and satisfaction to these
anxious and suffering souls. But in
stead of this they refuse to send out
such ministers, and insist that only
those who believe the repellant doc
trines are at for the foreign field. The
time is coming, and rapidly coming,
when this action will be reversed; when
missionaries will be authorized to
carry their own enlarged faith and
hope to those who are waiting anxious
ly for the comfort and blessing of true
Gospel.
