MEETING AT SPANISHTOWN
Gen. I’. 11 Hahhis, A M Zaumimue,
Esq., and otheid, will address the citizens of
SPANLSHTOWN, Butte County; on Satuh
i>Ay Evening, Octouer 18ih, on the polit
ical questions of the day,
IJuoKt; Down —The waggon that was en
gaged in bringing the iron towers to Bidwell
for the Suspension Bridge, cove in while
pissing through the Canon to that place.
Kind Providence permitting, and the weath
er in his favor, Murray, the contractor, will
finish that bridge jwco lieinpo.
For Justice —C. W. Stiles. Esq., some
time connected with this office as assistant
editor, has removed hence to Spanishtown,
and by acclamation lias been nominated by
his numetous friends, as candidate for Jus
iico of the Peace, for Oregon, township.—
Long may he live, and flourish like a green
bay horse. His capabilities for Justice are
unsurpassed, and we sincerely hope he may
be elected.
New G oods. —In passing the store of our
enterprising fellow townsman, Mr. Reis, we
noticed a more than ordinary display of fine
clothing, and upon inquiry learned that he
had just returned from below, with a full
assortment of choice winter wearing appar
el, furnishing goods, &c. Everybody need
ing such things, would do well to cull an
him.
The Opposition Linus. —U’e feel con
strained to acknowledge our obligations for
the many favors extended *o us by the pro
prietors and drivers of the two opposition
Marysville stages. David Rogers is theown
cr of one line of stages, an 1 Obed Sawtell of
the other. They arc both obliging gentle
men. and we thank them for their kindness.
Stealing Our Thunder. —There is not
a paper in the State t hat is guilty of so many
larcenies from ourself and cotemporai its, as
the Sacramento l.'niun. \\ hole articles aie .
taken trom our columns and published as
original with itself, with never so much as a j
pas-mg mention of our name in connection
with them.

It tuny not be inappropriate at the present
time, when sectionalism is so prevalent, for
those of both parties, who adhere to their
national sentiments, ami whose feelings ami
sympathies are for the Union as it is, to
know how national minded men and States
men have regarded eacli other, notwith
standing party differences and strifes. Was
the great “Expounder of the Constitution,”
still present to raise his voice in defence of
that sacred instrument, and of the Union,
the tide of funatacism would receive a cheek
which would give the well-intentioned citi
zens among them time to reflect upon the
•vils which their course is calculated to on
tiil upon their country.
Every one remembers the charge of di
verting the secret service fund, while Mr
Webster was Secretary of State, to his own
purposes, w hich Ingersoll, of Philadelphia,
emulous to rival the lame of him who fired
toe Ephesian dome, made against him in
Congress. The character of the accusation,
as well ns the eminence of the Individual
against whom it was preferred, created no
little excitement in Congress, and a commit
tee of the House was appointed to investigate
the mutter, which entirely exculpated Mr.
j Webster, and proved the specific nppropri
tion of the whole fund. It was at this junc
ture that Mr. llreckcnridge expressed the
following opinion ol Mr Webster. We quote
from “Daniel Webster's Social Hours,’’ as
published in the October number of Harper's
Magazine :
“A friend of Mr. Webster's remarked,
that whatever diversity of opinion might
then exist as to the merits of Mr Webster,
the time won d soon come when it would be
held the greatest honor to have been, a na
tive of the same country. “Sir,” replied a
person of rather saturnine complexion but
marked countenance, who had taken no part
in the previous discussion, “Sir, that time
has come. I will not acknowledge that man
as an American who does not now glory in
the name of Daniel Webster. Small men
may hope greatness by attacking him, but
1 teil y' u, gentlemen, that he is as far above
their reach as the orbed moon above the
dog who howls at her path in the Heavens! ’
“Who,” asked the writer of a friend near
him, “who is that determined looking man?”
“Don’t y<>» know him? Why, that is the
I gallant Brcckenridge fron Kentucky, fresh
from his laurels in Mexico. A young man,
! but of character beyond his years.”
Mr. Webster said, though personally un
acquainted with Mr Hreckenridge, he know
his descent and reputation, and could not
but feel deeply grateful for such a sentiment
from a political opponent.
New V4uk. —The result of the election
in Maine shows the almost utter extinction
|of the Know-Nothing or Fillmore party in
‘ the North. They have beaten the Democ
1 racy, but not without a struggle, and have
j literally wipod out the Fillmore men. In
| Few York, the dissatfection is spreading,
and the election of Parker, the Democratic
Nominee for Governor, is reduced to a oer
tiimy. Tbo Republicans are absorbing the
Know Nothings and Fillmore meu by whole
wigwams While they are thus absorbing
the Fillia re meu of New York, the Repub
licans themselves are split upon their nomi
nee for Governor, and a large proportion of
them,according to the New York. Herald,
will throw their influence for Darker.
Touching the Presidential election, the
N. Y. Herald says:
“For all practical purposes, the Maine
election lias thrown Mr. Fillmore out of
tha contest, and the remains of the lute nu
merous, but incongruous and impotent K.
N. organization are drifting into ihe actual
merits of the fight Many of the deluded
leaders of the deluded leaders of the Fill
more camp, especially in the Mouth, will
doubtless go over to Buchanan; hut the
bulk oi the Know-Nothing rank and tiie,
attracted and stimulated by the general
movement of the northern masses of inde
pendent thinking men, are rallying, and
will continue to rally to Fremont.”

New Jersey. — A Stale Republican Ci n
vent ion lias- been in session in this State,
presided over by Judge Marsh, the same
gent email who was President ot the Amer
en u National Goveutiun of Philadelphia,
wuich a initiated Fillmore and D-nielsoti.
Judge Marsh ha* published, in a long letter
ui> reasons lor ab .mP n ng Mr. Fill uore
Eu'.lk Maroon — This establishment has
just bon fitted up in a superior manner,
in i Messrs Nichols & Go , the proprietors,
have furnished their bar with a viry select
itovk of wmes, I quors, Ac.
Huuukw Death. —Tne Tot.cn Talk uftbe
14 tK in>t, contain* tit* following remarkable
•t*ry :
‘•Mr Isaac Lamm, an old resident of this
fitj ami mi elderly man, died at bis resi
dence yesterday morning suddenly, under
the following strange circumstances ; Mr.
Lamm, who Ims been suffering from disease
of the heart, arose in the morning, took a
hath, put on clean linen, for the grave, laid
hirnscif down in his bed, and rcmaiked that
he wan ready to meet his God. He rcqucst
e 1 some friends to repeat the formula ot the
Jewish prayers, and they nsking leave to go
for a prayer book, he replied. “No, repeat
them after me;" ard ho went through them
regularly. and on repeating the creed expir
ed. calmly and ijuietly. This is one ot the
strangest premonitions of death wc have ev
er heard.
Hurrah For Virginia ' Acc< ants from
this State are most flattering for the De
mocracy, and Buchanan will carry the State
! by the most triumphant miijojity ever given
to a I’recidential candidate. Know-Nuihing
wigwams are bursting to pieces, and the
national son-of the Old Dominion are join
ing the ranks of the Democracy; Mr. Geo.
D Gray, President of the Fillmore and
Uonelson Club at Culpepper, Virginia—a
delegate to the famous W inchcstcr Conven
tion—a member of a committee to inform
Messrs. Flournoy, Beale and Patton of their
nomination, a member of the committee to
promulgate a platform for the party —has
! announced his purpose to vote for Mr. liu-
I chanau.
Prize Fight. — A most bloody and re
volting prize fight took place near New Vjrk
city sometime last month, in which a man
by the name of Kelly is supposed to have
been beaten to death by his antagonist,whose
name is Lynch.
They fought eighty four rounds, when
Lynch was declared the victor.
A person answering to the description
given of Kelley, died at the Bellevue Hospi
tal a day or two after the light. A man was
taken to the Hospital by some cf his friends
under the name of John Williams, but from
certain facts, it is quite evident that it w»8
the defeated pugilist.
Srii.r, they Cime. —The stages arrived
yesterday literaly crowded with passongcis
and baggage. From the appearance ot these
travellers and Uieir luggage, we should
| judge they wen principally now comers
! from •‘America.’* Come along lays, there
is plenty of root! and good diggings fur al
i right about her*
Miner’s Convention. — We understand
! that the miners are to hold a convention on
Saturday next, for the nomination of Town
ship officers. The convention is to be held
a I Virginia Flat.
The River.— Ws were informed by Mr
Cole, who came down from Long s bar yes
terday, that preparations were being made
to remove the flames from the river.
The early commencement of the rainy sea
son has proved a great disaster to those en
gaged in river mining, and particulaily so
to the Montezuma Co., as they were just
fairly under way, when the water drove
them out.
A Chunk —A nugget of gold, weighing
was taken out ol Godfrey & Co.’s claim
sometime last week.
This is the largest piece that wc have
hoard of being washed out in this vicinity,
in the dry diggings Several large speci
mens have been found in the river this sea
son. Coarse gold is very scarce about here
Shop Dieting. —About fifty stout and
hearty men, by main force, raised up and
toted oil a hou-e that st< od on the corner of
Hiid and Myers sts., yesterday. They walk
ed off with it as easily as a dog with a bone.
Banking. —McWilliams & Tymc-on, and
Hedges & Hannon are doing uu extensive
business in the gold Just line. As accomo
dating gentlemen, and reliable business
men, they are eminently deserving the pat
ronage of our citizens.
By the way, persons sending packages or
anything else to us by Express, will please
send by Wells, Fargo &.Co., we always hav
ing found theirs the most speedy and ac
comodating concern of the ku.d, that vre
have ever transacted business with.
The Concert Last Night.—Owing to
Uic inclemt cy of the weather and the un
appi sol alive diameter of our citizens, Mrs
Baucel'» entertainment lust evening, was
but tiuuiy attended. Should oba peitoim
here to ingbt, we hope to sec her grceied
wall a lull house. She certainly deserves
it.
Hen toon's Exchange — This popular
house, so long the depot tor the California
Stage Co., has changed hands Messrs
J jhtiM'U and Lawler, have become the pro
prietors, and from the reputation they bear,
they deserve a continuance ol the patron 1 3 e
that has hitherto beta extended to tbeir
house.
Hun a way,— We received a coin munict
lion from some of our mining friends y ester
dny, the substance of which we publish as
follow?:
Win I). Higgins, who has recently been a
partner with McCray, Suffoi i ,V Co., in the
Robinson Hill claim, possessed himself ot
ihc Company's purse, and therewith absquat
ulated.
Higgins is a native of Massachusetts, and
is from Boston to this country. He lias been
gone several days and no trace ot him can
be found Anywhere. The amount stolen we
did Lot learn.
