Pclfy h authorised to make Collection* for thU office, and receipt for the name, throughout Mari posa County. Demoernfle County Convention to be held at Mnrlpofln on the 12th of Anga*t. It will be seen that the County Central Com mittee have appointed the 12th day of August next ensuing, for a second Convention, to meet at the town of Mariposa for the purpose of electing Democratic nominees for County offi ces. The Central Committee, evidently, pos leased this power, ns they were appointed to act until their successors in office were ap pointed and officially qualified. The late Dem ocratic Convention having adjourned, nine tile , without having performed the duties assigned it by the members of the Democratic party, it devolved on the Central Committee to call another Convention of Delegates from the various Precincts, to nominate candidates to represent the party in the coming election in September next. Subjecting their claims to the decision of a Convention is a part of the Democratic plat form, and the candidate who refuses to do so is unworthy to represent the Democratic par ty, and should not receive its support. Il will be seen that only such persons will he p< rmit ted vote for Delegates at the Primary Elec tions who voted for Mr. Buchanan at the last Presidential Election. This proviso will give a fair expression of opinion by the members of our party, without the interference of plotting, cunning and contriving enemies. Had this restriction been imposed in the first instance, there would have been no necessity for the Central Committee being compelled to call a second Convention. Our opposers are exult ing and chuckling over the failure of the late Convention to elect candidates, ami, no doubt, are secretly congratulating themselves at the success of their political machinations; hut, if we arc not mistaken, they are bound to he disappointed, for the Democratic party, though mortified at the want of harmony ami concord in the action of their late Delegates, yet are itrue to themselves as a party, as whole ns a •unit, and arc not the slaves either of particular men, or single factions. If the Delegates be lieve that by discarding one candidate and electing another, they can secure the triumph of the Democratic party in September next, let them without fear, or prejudice, or favor, act as they deem best for the interest of the party. The late Convention split on their pre ferences for particular men—this is better than being divided on a principle, as there arc plenty of good men in our ranks worthy of the full confidence of the prut}', and justly deserv ing of favors at the hands of the Democracy. There has been a bitterness of feeling mani fested in the late Convention, which we have never seen equalled in any similar gathering, and which every true Democrat must regret if not condemn. All that the members of the Democratic party ask of their Delegates, is, to give them good, reliable and capable nominees for County offices, ami they will support them with their money, their labor, and their votes. If one candidate will not answer, let the Dele gates select another who will. The people de mand and expect it at their hands, and they should eschew ail personal prejudices either for or against a candidate, and give us nomi nees that will ensure the success of the ticket, and thereby let the party reap the benefit of the labors they have so strenuously exerted for the last two years. We quote the following appropriate remarks from the San Francisco Glohe: Will the adherent* of the goo 1 old ennse allow their political faith to he humbled in the dn*t, that it miy be on a level with tho-e who seek to ri<e with it? We say t» the Democracy, do your d ity thin day. Give the rn uses an h west, faithful, intelligent repre sentation of the wishes of the party In the Conven t'ons which are called upon to select its nominees— cast aside every other aim than that which will unite the party—lornore all i-snes which Inve not been re cognized in its pi Uforms -listen not to the counsel of men of one idea, who have affiliated with us only to rule or min, and whose disorganizing proclivities have been illustrated by a seven yearn’ campaign against the Democratic party. Give us worthy standard-bear er*, and the people will rally around them—attempt to foist the unworthy into power, and they will be re pudiated by the masses. Wo state it ns our firm belief, that not a •ingle Know Nothing will cast a vote for any of the Democratic nominees for County offices in September next, and we would respectfully suggest that the candidates hear this in mind, and rely solely, wholly and entirely on the Democratic party for their support. Democratic Comity Convention. According to previous notice Delegates from the various Precincts met in Convention on last Saturday, in the town of Mariposa, for the purpose of nominating candidates to till Coun ty offices. Capt. Powell was elected Chair man and Arthur W. Jee Secretary. The pre cincts were all fully represented—and from Indian Gulch, Old Hornitos, liondville, Coul tcrville and Coward’s Store, two setts of Dele gates offered themselves for scats in the Con vention. After the meeting was fully organized, a committee of one Delegate from every uncon tested Precinct was appointed to decide upon | credentials, after which the meeting adjourned until 4 o’clock, P. M., to give the committee time to report. When the Convention met in the evening, the committee having only deci ded upon the credentials of the Hondviile dele gates, (said to bo in favor of Mr. Crippcn for Sheriff,) the Convention adjourned over un*il Monday in order to give lime for the commit tee to rej.ort in full. Monday’s session. The Merced Delegates to the number of (if teen, claimed the light of having one Assem blyman, and on this ground they based their right to vote on the report of the committee on credentials, which was conceded to them by the Convention after considerable argument by both wings of the Convention. The com mittee on credentials, or a majority thereof, reported in favor of the Crippcn Delegates I from Indian Gulch Precinct, and in favor of the Pool Delegates from the Old Hornitos and Coullervillc. The minority report, giving the whole four disputed Delegated votes of the four Precincts, viz: Hondviile, Coultcrville, Indian Gulch and Old Hornitos, to Pool, was received by the Convention, the Merced Dele gates voting on the report. An angry debate followed the whole course of the proceedings through the Convention, and after nominating | Mr. I. N. Ward of Merced County, and Daniel j Showalter of Mariposa County, as Democratic nominees for Assembly, the Convention ad j journed sine die. Mt rnrt and i>lnrl|io«n Ditch. Preliminary steps are now bring taken for the formation of .a Water Ditch Company un der the above name or title. Mr. C. K. Peter son, Civil Engineer, having completed the line of survey for a canal from the Yosemito Val ley to the head of Mariposa Creek, has now directed his attention to the running of a line of survey from the gap at the head of Burns 1 Creek, to some point on the main Merced Riv er, at or near the mouth of Saxton’s Creek Mr. Peterson was in town on last Friday, and we had the pleasure of conversing with him on the practicability and feasibility of the route. It appears that he has progressed far as Sherlock’s Creek with his line of alti tude, and pronounces the line thus far ns being without any serious obstructions, ns the Ditch can be dug most of the way, and (hat very little Homing will he required. The water from this Canal, if ever completed, will water the mineral lands of the Pelone, Hornitos and Quartzburg Districts—three of die richest mi ning sections in the County—ami without doubt three of the most extensive Helds for mining operations in the State. Two hundred thousand dollars will be sufficient to construct this Ditch, as its length will not exceed sixty miles, as character of the ground through which it will pass being peculiarly adapted for either Homing or ditching, and will hold the water with but little Alteration. The surface bed rock is all decomposed to a certain extent and yields readily to the pick, affording a se cure) and lasting channel fir the water during the summer and winter months. With Major Me Neal’s Ditch supplying the central mines in Mariposa County, and with this canal affording the water for the miners to work the ravines in these diggings, we have every reason to ex pect that in a short time after they are put in operation, the financial condition of the State will be improved, and general prosperity pre vail in the Counties adjoining the two dry Counties of Merced ami Mariposa. We have not the s; nee to spore in this week’s issue to elucidate the vast importance that will accrue to Stockton ami San Francis co by the construction of these two Canals, hut we arc fully persuaded that ten million of dollars would he annually taken out of the ravines in Mariposa County if we had only water to wash the dirt. That this Ditch will bo started and completed wo have not the shadow of a doubt. The richness of the mines justify its construction, and the lino of survey lias demonstrated its practicability, and more than ali, the emergencies of the limes demands that this Canal must ho made. It is needless to talk about the difficulties in the way—want of capital and want of energy —in Mariposa County—it will ho managed in some shape or form, or we are much deceived in the pre sent aspect of affairs.

Editor.—We are sorry to say that a division has taken place l»etweon the Democracy of Fre-.no and ; Tulare counties. The cause I will briefly explain.— I-ast year the Democracy of the two counties assem bled in Convention in the town of Millertoo, and nom* mated a candidate from Tulare county— at the same ' time a promise was made by the delegation of Tulare to the Fresno delegation, that Fresno county was en titled to and should have the nomination this Full.— We relied upon the pledge then made, and also know- I lug that according to all Democratic usages as well as ! to law in many States, Fresno would he entitled to the Representative this year, we went to work cheerfully and manfully, and gave the nominee a handsoTC ma jority, when the Democrats In his own county and who gave him the nomination, failed to give him a majority, although numerically much stronger than the other party. This year Fresno county claims the Represen tative, hut to the astonishment of all, two candidates are brought out in Tulare, and the nomination of one ! so strenuously insisted upon by his supporter*, that when they found that they were likely to l»e outvoted and beaten in their choice, bolted the Convention and announced their candidate as running independent. Fresno insisted upon the nomination for other reasons than the pledge made and usage* of party as nlmve : named. She has never been represented in the Ix?gh»* 1 litnrc, and when n part of Mariposa county, sin* was never represented in any way, although she was al ways found at her post, ami doing her duty on the day l of election. The three candidates before the Convcn ■ lion were Capt. Then. Maltby and A. 11. Milcheii, of ! Tnl,ire, and O. M. Brown of Fiesno. The Tulare del egation were divided, hut the Fresno delegation were : united, am] so will be the entire party and people of Fresno on the day of election. CARELESS. Fresno nml Tulan County I)i mix rntle Con vention. 1 Pursuant to previous notice, the Delegates from ! Fresno ami Tulare counties met in Convention on Saturday, Hie 2 ilb day of July, in the town of Vi salia. for the pu.poseof nominating a Democratic candidate for the next legislature. The Convention was called to order l»y Judge John A. Culler, the Chairman of the Tulare Democratic Central Committee, who having briefly addressed the Convention, stated that the Convention was ready i to organize ; whereupon on motion of H. Clark, E-*q.. Clark lloxie was called to the chair, and 11. A. Carroll ot Fresno, utid 11. X. Carrol of Tulare were appointed I Secretaries. j On motion of James S tyles, Jim., of Fresno, a com i mittcc of three from each county wore appointed to examine credentials. The following gentlemen were | named as said committee: H.Clark,J. Sayles,Jr., and Thomas Lewis of Fresno, and S. W. Ileckhain, Knloc, and Freeman of Tulare. On motion the Convention took a recess of one hour to enable the committee to examine credentials. APTEBNOOH SESSION. The Convention was called to order nl 2$ o'clock, and the • "inrnilleo, through their chairman, 11. Clark, i submitted the following report: That the coun ty of Fresno was entitled to nineteen votes, and the county of Tulare eightern, which was excepted to by the Tulare committee. Thereupon Sam. VV. Ilcekham j o( Tulare ofh red a resolution that two delegates he truck from the Fresno delegation, and nddremeil the 1 Convention at length, urging Unit as the mnnty of 1 1 Fre=no acquired her majority in the Convention hy j I reason of a grenter number of precincts, she should j only i*e allowed delegates for the same number of pre edicts ns were in Tulare. The resolution was opposed hy Mr. Saylc* and Judge ( ( lark of Fresno, who replied in arguments of length and ability, and after a great deal of discussion on 1 i both sides, Mr. Suyles offered the following amend -1 merit to the resolution : That whereas it ap|*ar* that Fresno county Ims two more precincts than Tulare t ountv. and is entitled to two more votes, and that at ■ •ne of the precincts in Tulare county for which two i votes were claimed, it appeared that no votes at all 1 1 had been cast at the last e lection, nor any poll opened. Therefore resolved, that two votes is? disallowed to Fiifiiio county, and that two votes Is* disallowed Tu lare county. Alter a gieat deal of dehote for and against the same, it was moved and seconded that the resolution be adopted, but before the vote could Ire put, Mr. Freeman of the Tulare delegation, nod represent ing Kern river, do hired that he would leave the Con vention unless a candidate from Kern river received i tlie nomination, and as he knew the vole would l*e in f.»v>r of a candidate from Fresno, he would leave the Convention. He was followed by the re-t of the Kent I river delegation, and the Convention thereupon broke j up. Capt T. M.iltby's name Is-ing announced by Mr. Freeman as an independent candidate from Kem rlv 1 er. The Fresno delegation Iteing left alone, returned 1 1 Fresno county without taking any further proceed ings, fir the purpose of holding a County Convention of their own. CARELESS. 1 Mining CormpoiKlenre. Bit ku lock's Cukkk, Aug. 1 -t., Is.iT. Mv Dkak Dkmochat— Your correspondent had the pleasure of visiting t e new quartz mill just completed on Whitlock's Creek, by Messrs. Sbgman A Co., to run hy horse power, and which will commence to crush the glittering rock this week. The building is :i4 by 22 feet, and substantially put up. Thu machinery I* entirely new and looks well; it will run four stamp* ; each stamp weighing five hundred pound*- they will rise eight inches and make thirty-six strokes pur minute. Four hors s will be worked at a time to keep the mill running. The whole coat of the mill will probably he about 1 1,000. To the right of the mill is a beautiful spring, from which w ater is conveyed by undergr und pipes to the mill, and thu supply is cufli elcnt for their grinding purposes. This company have about one hundred and eighty tons of rm k ready for the mill, which they think will average KiO per tm, and It is to be Imped that they will meet With thu success that they deceive. Proceeding on my tramp I soon arrived at Whit lock's ramp, ami alter refieshing myself at Mr. S*eg man's clear cool spring, I continued on my way to Goodman, Dillz A Co.'s quartz mdl at the mouth of Whitlock's Creek. This mdl runs by water power, but owing to its scarcity now. they crush but ver» lit tle rock. Mr. Goodman, one of the courteous proprie tors, kindly shoutd me ull the different parts and workin sot the mill. Piles of rock are lying before the mill, in which the gold can be sc n anywhere and everywhere. They have out about six hundred lons of rock lor crushing this w inter. Mr. (1. exhibited some rock that was taken out of a shaft at the depth of one hundred feet, and it is much harder than that alwive, yet still it is quite as rich. I have seen many rich veins in the northern part of the Slate, but I think this one w ill tally compete w ith any ol them. The company arc still getting out rock fur this winter, and are making preparations to build another mill a short distance below the one they arc now running. They expect to crush one hundred tons of ruck per day with the two mills, during the wet season. This com pany has been very persevering, and deserve the rich reward that they at present have the prospect of reap ing. They have had much to contend with in open ing their various leads, and the scarcity of water in this section of the country has also been a great drawback to their success, which as industrious und energetic gentlemen they deserve. A few miners are working on the creek ami making good wages, among whom are Messrs. Caldwell ami P. Fagan. A number of miners below the fulls have stnick good pay. among them Wright A Co., and E. i! nit A Co. John Marshall & Co.'s hill claim is pay iug wages.

IMootly IMiiU 111 \(W Volk. Bloody riots have been going on In the city, says tlw Nr raid, during the past forty-eight hours. The conflict began on Saturday afternoon in the “ Bloody Sixth ” ward, lictwecn a gang calling themselves the " Dead Babbit'. 'and the Bowery boy-, in Bayard street, near Mullierry. Firearms were freely used, and seven persons killed, and twenty-live or thirty wounded. In the Seventh ami Thirteenth wards there were also serious affrays, in which a number of persons, including a policeman, were badly injured. I .a-4 eve ning the light was renewed in the Sixth ward, when a terrible conflict took place between two fact ions, and eleven persons were shot, many of whom are sup posed to be fatally won tided. The police did all they could to suppress the riots, but they were totally in snfflclen* even to protect them-elves from the fury of the mobs, and had it not been for Uie presence of the military In the very heart of the rioters'strongholds there is no knowing where the matter would have ended. A number of policemen were seriously in jured by the riot in Bayard street. Among the num ber, officer Jenkins, who is not expected to recover.
