•Oß,
I>< niu< rntlc Meeting.
The Democracy bad a little impromptu
gathering on Saturday night, to listen to a
Democratic speech from Judge Sherwood,
of Sun Francisco, formerly of this County.
The Judge spoke for about one hour in an
able, argumentative and enthusiastic man
ner. lie pitched into the Sectional Him k
j Republican party, and literally fliyed them
j alive in thirty minutes, by the watch. lie
! showed the principles embraced in the K in
zas Nebraska bill, to be the fundamental
principles of republican government. In
demanding its repeal, the Black Republican
party, denied the right of one portion of the
1 Union to have u voice in the government oi
I the territories, which were the common
; property of the whole Union, and assumed
the right to govern the country according
to their own peculiar notions.
The Judge brought down the House when
he referred to the Know-Nothing party,
whose doctrines, alihogh but recently pro
mulgated, have become so odious and offen
sive as to compel them to enter the present
canvass under the less obnoxious name ol
“Fillmore men ” They dare not appear
; before the people of California, and ask for
1 their suffrages, under their intolerant and
i proscriptive doctrines—their anti-Catholic
i test—their illiberal naturalization laws
and butchery of foreign born citizens-! By
1 changing their name to “Fillmore men,”
they hope to be enabled to secure the vote of
j the foreign born citizen, and thus induce
j him to vote against his own interests and
! himself. They will not succeed in thisde
-1 ccptiim. They have nominated none but
members of the Know-Nothing order, from
the Presidency down to Constable, and hope
to fasten their odious doctrines upon the
country by changing their name to “Fill
more men.”
In referring to the railroad question, upon
which the Republicans claim to be par ex
cellence, the party, he demonstrated their
inability to bu i the road, in the event of
their success. When they talked about the
Democracy being opposed to a Pacific Rail
road, they were making statements which
the facts and tbo Records will not warrant.
There never was a railroad bill introduced
into either branch of Congre-s which did
not originate wi h the Democracy. He
called upon the opposition of every and any
lute to name a man outside of the democratic
party who had introduced such a measure.
It could not be done The records allowed
that every measure of the kind hud origina
ted with the Democracy.
The meeting was sot a very large one, as
the announcement was nut made until about
five o'clock, P. M. The other parties had
held meetings here lately, and had tho de
mocracy congregated their forces in any
oonsidcrabl • numbers, it would have dis
heartened and overwhelmed the opposition
Fillmore is now held in the canvass but by
a single thread, and one demonstration such
as ihc Democracy of Oroville are capable ol
making, might drive him from the canvass.
Sunday in Oroville, is indeed a busy
day San Francisco or Sacramento in LB4’d
was no comparison to Oroville now. Then,
every town in the State was the scene ol
similar excitement and wild and extrava
gant amu-euicnt. Time has sobered down
other towns, and regulated their business
affairs. They have become too obi fogyish
lor thousands of California adventurers. 1
There is no town in the State, that ap
pioximates to tho scenes of ’4 ( d, but Oro
ville, every portion of the State being
here represented. The spirit of ’4'J con- ,
centra ted, has descended upon Oroville. ;
Here is the canvass lent, the rag and shingle
shanty, and the fire-proof brick There
were yesterday three places in town where
Divine Service was held, one horse race, two
the Ores playing to full houses, and the
third theatrical company waiting to get a
room, numberless hellige cot individuals
filled with had whiskey, and two Courts of
Justice levying fines and filling the three
jails of Untie County. All these we notice
fn.m our de-k in the cilice Did we mingle
with tiie three thousand people-on .Mont
gomery and Myers street, and attempt a
description of a Sunday in Ottoville, we
should have no room for political Kerns, and i
n w, when the baleful i off Onset* of; sectional
Urns is rife throughout the land, the patriot
can no more overlook the glorious cause of
Democracy and the Union, thm the Chris
tian can forget his religion and his God.
U. S. Branch Mist. —The Branch Mint
at San Francisco will be open from and after
to day, for the reception of bullion and
coinage. This will be good news for the
Miners.
Another Race.— A Hiat»h was made yes
terday between the winner of Saturdays
race, and Mr. Maynard’s gray Karse. for
#3OO a side be run in two weeks at Forbcs
tOWD%.
Theatrical. —Our theatrical manage
ment has been hitherto confined to singular
ly unfortunate beings. Continually some
rupture between manager and company It
must be from want of managerial tact; cer
tainly a want of experience cannot be urged
>i» an excuse, for in nearly every instance,
veterans inured by long yearsot experience,
have controlled the companies, or prth ndt </
to do so. The error is hero. There is too
much individual independence in the mem
bers of the companies—too many aits. L.ich
one docs us he pleases. The easy going man
ager, fearful ot offending some ambitious
“supc,” whose place he might not be able
to supply, where assurance is at a discount,
overlooks what at the moment may be a
petty infraction. The old story of “give an
• nch and they'll take an ell" is illustrated,
until the ostensible manager is ultimately
astonished to find himself dictated to, in
stead ot being dictator, uud in tact.dwindles
nt) a mere cypher. This laxity of disci
pline of course produces disorder. The
manager becomes embarrassed ; gets into
debt ; burs'a up, and the public, instead ot
enj ying an entertainment, is outraged by
such scenes of private grievance as the lasi
few weeks have been peculiarly fruitful of
It is rediculous to urge, ‘waul of patronage'
as an excuse for failure. For the size ot
the place, a richer community than this dues
not exist in the Slate, and il is as liberal as
it is rich. Wo are persuaded that with a
well organized company ; the present one
lor instance, which is passable—a bounteous
harvest, at selected intervals, may be inva
riably reaped.
Chance kok our opponents.— U'e found
the following notice upon one of the Bulletin
B iards on Saturday evening. Wo will only
add that those dealing with Mr. Major wih
find him ready to perform his part of the
contract:

The Knee.
The race that came off on Saturday, over
ihe Thornton course near this place, was
won by the Santa Barbara horse, by fifteen
feet. Distance, 24U yards. Stake, $-500 a
side.
About a thousand persons were present,
*nd everything passed off finely Very lit
tle money changed hands, as the sorrel was
decidedly the favorite from first to last
Two, four, and as high aa six to one, was
freely ottered, with but fow takers.
Upon the nags being stripped, the scene
was most exciting. In appearance there is
no comparison between the two The Bear
River horse is a tolerably well muscled, low
and logy animal,with no very striking marks
of speed, lie was well trained, and his jock
ey a good one, and made a very fair race.
The sorrel, when uncovered, and his rider
up, showed most beautiful. He proved him
self a peacock, and strutted around, as tho’
“* iger for the fray.” He looked the very
pattern of a first class race horse. 11c is
about a thousand pound hor>e, 15 hands
high, trim built, heavy muscled, chestnut
colored, aasleek as a mole, and is the finest
stock to all appearances, that has been in
these parts.
The San Franaisco Globe says there
were thirty seven bald-headed gentlemen it

awuld not bo accounted lor on the score of

A lains Muir called on us last Saturday,
having just come down from the Middle loi k
ot Feather River. 11c gives us cheering
news in regard to mining t peratioiis in that
section. He says that while some few claims
have failed, a large majority have, and aic
doing well. Clai k's wing dam, situated be
low Ball Rock is worked by Chinamen, on

I’eter \V ilson has also called in us, fi ru
the North Fork. He is interested in Lung
riffle. He states that they have taken out
from two to live ounces to the bum! per day,
ever since they commenced mining, which
was about the tenth of SejiU mbt r.
From So ams h Town — All they want in
this vicinity to nuke a flourishing place, is
water. The diggings are known to be rich
and very extensive. Oar occasional corres

A Solace. — It is an exijuisite and beau

heart is touched and sollemd by some Iran

memory of the dead comes over it most pow

our belter thoughts and sympathies were

lov«d in life. Alas! how often and how long

Ani’ono Saloon. — A siightscenc occurred
at this place last night during the perform
ance of the American Concert Troupe. The
house was full and the performance was pro
ceeding to the satisfaction ol all, when the
-cats gave way, and came down with a tre
mendous crash, prostrating the greater j art
ot the audience on the tt >or. Fortunately
no one was hurt, and the show went on, the
audience in the best possible humor.
Joe Dunn is in the field again, and if any
body wants their properly knocked down to

that can do it.
