DR J. D. BROWN.
Theatre —A good house wits present at
the Metropolitan, on Thursday night, to wit
ness the play of ‘Pizarro.’ Mr. Brown, Mr.
Mortimer, and Mrs. Moulton, played their
parts well, but it strikes us that the compa
ny is not large enough to attempt such pie
ces. Some of the characters were horribly
butchered —for instance, the Alonzo, which
is a very fine feature of the play,and requires
uu actor, to portray it. even well, was com
pletely murdered and amounted to nothing.
Last night, as usual, the house was well
filled The performance commenced with
the Drama of Don Ciesar De liazan, in which
Messrs Drown an i Mortimer, and Mrs.
Moulton, fully sustained their reputation,
and are deserving of praise. The entertain
ment concluded with the local play of "Wo
man's Rights, or Oroville in IhoG,” which
within itself possesses no merit, further
than the stylo in which it is rendered. The
performance however, as a whole, seemed to
give general satisfaction.
Sudden Change. —The sudden change in
the weather last evening, rendered out dour
lodging} rather uncomfortable. We observ
ed while wending our weary way homeward
at a late hour, a great scarcity in the usual
number of street lodgers. It will be a bless
ing if the cold weather wili compell some of
the vagrants in this town, to seek employ
ment, whereat they can earn sufficient at
lerst, to pay for a bed within doors.
Emigrants. —An Emigrant train arriv
ed yesterday by way of the Beckwith pass
We did not learn where they were from
Their stock looked very well.
We noticed two beautiful roscy checked,
blue eyed, blooming country girls, peeping
out of the lattice work of the elegant Ox
carriage that they crossed the plains in.—
They were looking sharply at us, and we al
low to spruce up a little, and look into this
matter further and more at length.
Opposition — At ’em again. We notice
oar friend Obed Sautel is on the track once
tnorc with his opposition line of stages
Obed has in one or two instances proved
himself to be a troublesome opponent. We
have rot heard his line of action this time,
but wc presume that he will run to Spanish
town.
Bi.ack Repubs.— The friends and admi
rers of curled hur were hcvering around
their favorite speakers Judge Tracy and
Mr Rankin, yesterday. They were coun
selling together a- t o the best way‘to get an
audience ; it being impossible to gather more
than a corporal’s guard hereabouts.
Dick Irwin. — We are informed on relia
ble authority, that this sterling Democaat
is stumping the cou t; of Plumas, and just
wipes out his opponent on the issue in the
present campaign. He is the parties candi
date for the Legislature, and will no doubt
be elected.
Postponed.— The Ball advertised to he
given by John Davis, Esq., at Balcorab’s
Xanch, has Wn postponed until further
The True Inutile.
Professional politicians, says the Rich
mond Enquirer, may be determined in their
course by prejudices of party and motives of
personal ambition, but the mass of the peo
ple arc animated in this momentous contest,
by no other consideration than a patriotic
concern for the honor ami interest of the
country. The catch-words and issues of
party engage comparatively little interest.
The discipline of party organisations con
tr Is but few votes. The success of party
in itself and without reference to any ulte
rior aim, is an object of very languid dc'-ire
and a motive of very feeble exertion. The
Presidential canvass of 18ot» is in no jus
sense a contest of parties for political power
and patronage. It involves intinitely graver
and more essential issues, and in its result
will accomplish a far more important revo
lution than a mere change of administra
tion or modification of party policy. Hence,
the earnestness of thought, tlie depth of
passion, and the pervading unity of interest
which distinguish this canvass in different
portions of the Union.
In a mere party stnjggle.it is logical an l
1 proper to appeal to the interests and pas
sions of party. Uut, iu a contest, which
Divides *he Constitution of the country and
the Union of the States, in which political
issues play a very insignificant part; ami
which confounds ancient distinctions and
amalgamates antagonistic associations by
the irresistablo power of its supreme and
unapproachable interest; in such a contest,
the clap-t rap and sophistries of an ordinary
canvass are altogether irrelevant and out of
place. The people will spurn any appeal to
senseless prejudice—will reject any jargu
raent which is not addressed to their con
science and their judgments. The politician
who travels about with musty “documents,”
and discusses the obsolete issues of a bye
gone age, will via a credit for research and
partisan zeal, at the expense of his charac
ter for candor and honesty of purpose. The
Stump speaker, who consumes his hour and
exhausts his breath in the attempt to convict
opposing candididates of trivial inconsis'ent
cies and immaterial heresies, will simply be
voted a bore for his trouble anil ingenuity
The public mind is in too serious a temper
for such contemptible trifling. The people
care little for any past thing which does not
hear immediately upon present issues. One
stem tyrrnnic thought bends all their ener
gies to its purposj. With the masses of the
people the single inquiry is, how shall we
act so as most certainly to secure the defeat
of the coalition against the Constitution and
the Union ?
Fortunately events begin to indicate the
course which the patriot should pursue,
with so much clearness of revelation that
there can be no excuse for a mistake of duty.
While Mr, Fillmore was bona Jiile a candi
date fur the Presidency, it was natural that
his old associates shoul f incline to support
kirn Hut since the result of the elections
in Missouri, Arkansas, Alabama, Kentucky
and North Carolina, has developed the irre
sistahle tendency of popular opinion, and
ftas foreshadowed the inevitable triumph of
the Democratic party in every southern
State, ii is too much to expect that men will
throw away tlfeir votes upon a fictitious can
didate. The support of Buchanan may be
repugnant (<•> tie prejudices of the old line
Whig, and may be disposed to repine at the
success of his old antagonist, but such un
amiable and ungenerous feelings will be
overborne by higher impulses of patriotic
duty. Whigs may claim that Fillmore is as
reliable a friend of the Union as Buchanan,
and nay yot decline to support him because
of the miuilest impossibility of 11 is elecliuu.
The Riuht Talk.— A New paper has
been started iu San Andrus, independent in |
politics, but asks the pertinent question— j
“Who so fitted to make our laws for us as
those who know our nquirements, and our
wishes—those who are identified with us ! fi
it is time that tluse who arc permanently
interested interested in California to dis
card the thousand and one politicians, who
have thrust themselves upon the State. Ac
cident having placed them in the position of
legislators in other States, ami their unpop
ularity having compelled them to leave,
their wire-working and intriguing and log
rolling propensities thrust themselves upon
the people of California, where they use
their positions to enrich themselves, and
then leave the State, without returning to
their cons'ituents ! Voters of Butte County
repudiate ibis stamp of political bloodsuck
ers, and scud men to make laws for you who
are identified with your interests, and the
interests of the county. Be not deceived by
the blandishments of the professed political
blackleg!
Changed Hands.— The Orleans Hotel
has been purchased by Capt. Murray, and
will sh- rfly I c overhauled and opened under
his supervision.
Iteaetioii In favor of Fillmore.
There is no doubt a strong reaction taking
place in favor of Fillmore. Head an account
of it which we take from the Cincinnati Dol
lar Weekly.
“The forlorn Shanghai Know Nothing pa
pers keep daily telling ns that a vast “re
action'’ in favor of Fillmore is taking place
They point out signs and wonders, and skip
about, making a great noise, yelping in va
non* voices, like Indians deceiving enemies
as to their number.
Their discipline is complete, and they
hurry from place to place, and hit upon all
the expedients to make an imposing show,
with (he adroitness and desparation of a
slender garrison, beleagured and on the
point of starvation and surrender, strug
gling to keep up appearances, in order to
make a respectable capitulation.
The manner in which they rattle along
! the streets with drums and a display of ban-
I ners, call in vain to those on the sidewalk,
to ‘fall in,' and shout with cracked voices
for Fillmore and Donelson, is excessively
j funny. A richer farce than that perpetrn
j ted at every Fillmore meeting.no stage man-
I ager should desire. Every sensible man—
every man with half sense—knows that Fill
more stands no noire chance of being the
next President than Pap Taylor does, and
yet his champions, oratorical and editorial,
have radonbled the vigor of their lying as
sertions and prophecies, and have waxed
rampant as they become redicnlous Like
the prophet of Baal, they have shrieked and
i tore their hair, ami flayed themselves, and
roared with passionate and profane prayers
fbr tire from heaven, but it would not do
j ceml. They have said that there would and
sworn that tlorc should he a ‘reaction,’ and
have raved that the tide had turned and the
Fillmore flood was swelling. Vet the waters
who-e buoyancy they have depended upon
to be borne to fortune, refuse to rise, and
not only refuse that, but they sink, leaving
the filthy sediment of Hindooism along the
shores, from which the Hindoo reptiles are
crawling backward—crawfishing from the
stream of pollution that dwindles away,
raving only a nasty truck marking its
Course to oblivion.
The Fillmore farce is about played out
Th e people are weary with the thing that
is in its intention serious, but in itself far
cical and foolish. A sense of disgust suc
ceeds excess of mirth, and there is no perma
nence of fun in a silly, unadorned, ami in
credible lie The assertion that a‘reaction’
favorable to Fillmore is now going on. is a
self evident lie During the last month,
there have been daily demonstrations ilia*
the Fillmore parly is crumbling, rotting, fa
ding into utter insignificance, becoming so
annihilated, that it cannot, towards the
close ot this campaign, sustain the dignity
of a nuisance—that it will make tmt a van
ishing smell, and leave hut a grease spot

Ik u’tiki i. Scene. — In the play of Piz
zaro at the Theatre on Thursday night,
where the beautiful little boy Mason was
brought on the stage by the bewitching Miss
Kale (i ray, the ' oust* was brought down in
thunders of applause. The parting scene
was very affecting. The little fellow, not
exactly conscious of what was passing,caught
the eye of his mama among the audience and
manifested some demonstrations of walking
off the stage into her arms. He did not un
derstand the rattling and hanging confusion
incident to heavy tragedy He played Im
part decidedly well, or in other words was
well up iu his parts.
lowa v m Buchanan!— The “Fremont
Victory’* was achieved by a fusion of the
Know-Nothings with the Black Hepublicans,
the candidates being equally divided be
tween the two parties. Both now claim the
victory, and have got up a very respectable
quarrel. They cannot command the same
vote for Fremont Electors that they did for
their mongrel State Ticket, and the result
ot their division will be to give lowa to Bu
chanan ami the Union!
Arrest ok John McDougal.—Ex-Gov
ernor McDougal, was arrested soon after his
arrival on the Stephens, by officer Hand.
He is chared with election frauds in San i
Mateo last May. Ho gave bond with '
Edward F. Beale and James S. Graham as
sureties.
Justice Jones’s Court. —Ben. Moulton
was fiued s7fiand costa for committing an
assault upon his Harriot Moultou.
He left for Sacramento on the stage yester
day. It is understood that they have finally
separated.
New Goods. —Mr. Simon has one of the ;
most extensive assortment of fashionable
Clothing, Hats, Boots, and Dry Goods, that
has ever been opened in Oroville. A tile
from the above House may be seen on owe oj j
our htads.
Correction. —Our old friend Geo. Green
is not the one spoken of in connection with
the race-track. So he says.
Theatre is now under the exclu
sive management of Jacob Morris, the
proprietor, and will no doubt do a prosper
ous business. He seems determined to fur
nish entertainments of the very first order.
Postponed —The ball that was advertised
to come off at the Valley Exchange, Messllla
Valley, is postponed iniefinitely.
Mountain House, Butte Co., Sept. 2’J.
Friend George:—l have thought that a
tew items of mining news from this quarter
would not be uninteresting. The miner* are
making fair wages—at least all tin sc who
have water to work their claims— and there
area good many waiting patiently until the
rainy season sets in; then they expect to
make large wage*. There has been some
good prospects struck, recently, on the Bar
on the Forth Fork of the Middle Feather
River, ami a good many claims have hern
located mi that stream for flaming next sea
son. There arc also hill diggings being
found along Brush Creek, which bid fair to
pay well. lam of the opinion that there
will be as good hill diggings struck in this
vicinity, as there arc in any mining section
in the State. The hills have not, as yet. been
prospected. All we want is enterprising
hill miners to come and prospect, we have
plenty of room, ami a good show for them
to make a ten-strike, if they only persevere
If you have any such men about Oroville,
sen ! them along.
Wo have two or three Fremont men in this
vicinity, and the balance will fie divided be
tween Buchanan and Fillmore: but 1 think
Buck will come out ahead. Ex Gyverm i
Foote, the champion of the American party,
in company with two or three of the “big
chiefs'’ of the same tribe, parsed along here
a few days since, but none of them favored
ns with a speech —ire hit sti^htni. 1 sup
pose they thought we were all right—we
will try and be in November.
Yours Truly,
NED.
Another New Score—We would call
the attention ot the trade to the magnificent
stock of groceries anJ provisions of J F.
Kessing \ Co., Washington Block. Almost
everything that can he called for in the
above line is kept and sold at a low figure.—
Give them a call.
