SATURDAY MORN., MAY 2,185 T.
Democratic State Central Committee.
A meeting of the member® of the Democratic
Stale Central Committee will he held at San Fran
cisco, on Wednesday, May 20th, at 10 o'clock, a. m.,
for the purpose of determining the time of holding
the State Convention, and attending to any busi
ness incidental thereto.
ALFRED REDIXGTOX,
Chairman Democratic State Central Com.
The Political Horizon.
A great calm followed the Presidential
storm of 1856. The eoutest was Scree, un
relenting, and bitter; but the result made the
assurance of the safety of the Union doubly
sure, and even as though the power of the
Almighty had been directly interposed, the
troubled waters were stilled. The name of
the patriot chieftain who was culled to the
head of affairs, inspired confidence among all
conditions of people; and despite the treason
ous appeals of insane fanatics, run mud in
their devotion to the African race, a return
ing sense of common duty to the Republic
was manifested even in the hottest beds of
abolitionism.
Following this happy result of a contest
which involved the perpetuity of the institu
tions established by our Revolutionary fath
ers, came, and quite recently too, the most
important political decision that has ever em
enated from the highest tribunal in the laud.
This decision confirmed the high National
ground occupied by the unwavering Democ
racy in the Presidential contest. It estab
lished the right of the people, whether in
State or Territory, to regulate their own do
mestic affairs; it abrogated an act of Con
gress, of nearly thirty years standing, by
which it was proposed to interpose Federal
power to an extent beyond the limit which is
pointed out by the Constitution. Never was
there a more righteous decision made. Our
children and our children’s children will bless
the Supreme Court that promulgated it.
The calm continues, and we trust it will
continue. We trust that there never again
will be a time when the Union of the States
shall be considered in danger. We trust that
in all time to come, a majority of the people
will frown down the unnecessary agitation of
questions calculated to alienate the Slates
from each other.
It is well, in contemplating the happy re
sult that has beeujiehievcd, to stop and think
how and by whom it was brought about.—
The Old Guard Democracy, who have bat
tled a life-time for the cause, through good
and through evil report, should not forget
that they withstood the severest assaults of
the enemy in the last grand conflict. While
they most gratefully remember those who
patriotically lent their assistance in the coun
try’s Jiour of need—while they have enrolled
Ihtir names forever to remain with the legions
of the Democracy-still the Old Guard should
remember that they are the Old Guard yet.
Party revolutions lead estray those whose
Democracy is not as deep-seated as it should
be; and although they are sure to return,and
generally better Democrats than they were
before, still they are not the veterans who
have proved themselves worthy of implicit
reliance under all circumstances.
Wc write this with no disposition to make
invidioos distinctions in the ranks of the De
mocracy, but from a sense of duty to the
party whoso cause we espouse. We consider
it our duty, we know it is our duty, to remind
the Old Guard that “eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty;” and that, at this particular
juucturc, great cure should be observed, lest
corruption, deep and dark, fasten itself upon
the party. In overwhelming strength, there
is danger of this. The Old Guard should
also remember that now, since the great battle
has been fought and won, vast numbers who
have never been Democrats before, are now
knocking at our doors for admission. In
granting them entrance, we must be exceed
ingly careful that they bring not with them
a single jot or tittle of the heresies they have
heretofore embraced; lor if they arc not first
divested of these, they bring foul coulugion
into the house of the Democracy.
Anou, wo may have more to say.
Bcas'Et) to Death.— On Sunday evening
last, at Jamison’s Mill, in this county, a child
one and a half years old was left in the house
while the parents went out to milk. The
mother observing too much light in the house,
ran in as quickly as she could, and found the
child’s clothing in flames and the child itself
so badly burned as to be beyond recovery
Iho name of tbfc parents is Fft-%mfd.
Kilham's Orchards.
About n week since wc paid a vSU to the
orchards of Mr. Horace Kilham, at Tu'rsiel
Hill, al>out one mile and a half from Jackson,
and were richly repaid for the trouble. Mr.
Kifhom has between eight hundred and one
thousand peach trees, of the respective ages
of one, two and three years—the greater por
tion being of two and three years growth.
Healthier or more thrifty trees never grew;
the growth of a single year has been, in some
instances, so extraordinary that we dare not
state it, for fear of being charged with exag
geration, The soil and climate of this imme
diate vicinity are evidently peculiarly adapted
to the cultivation of the peach. When Mr,
Kilham first planted the pits, people laughed
at what they supposed his folly; but now the
laugh is the other way. Last year he sold a
considerable quantity of fruit, and this year
his trees are literally loaded. It will yield
what many would consider a handsome little
fortune.
Mr. Kilham has also seventy-five apple
trees and two hundred gra]>e vines, besides
peurs, cherries, kc., all of which are flourish
ing finely. Mr. K. deserves much credit for
the enterprise he lias manifested in the culti
vation of fruit, by which means it has Um?ii
ascertained that this locality is eminently
adapted to its growth.
When the fruit ripens, we shall again visit
Mr K's orchard; that is, “if the court know
herself, and she think she dol”
Mr. Kilham is very pleasantly situated,
with most of the comforts of home about him.
Wc noticed but one tiling missing—if there
was any “ better half ” about the house she
kept herself out of sight. If Mr. K. has
been remiss in this respect, he should utonce
"hie him to the domicil of some fair maid,”
and at once make amends for past miscon
duct. He has too pretty a place to be en
joyed “ all alone.”
Dramatic. —The dramatic troupe under the
management and direction of the prince of
theatrical gentlemen, Mr. A. R. Phelps, play,
ed seven nights in Jackson, with unprecedent
ed success. Upon their return, which will be
in two or three weeks, they will be greeted
with a universal welcome. Meantime, the
company will visit Placcrville, and wc com
mend Mr. Phelps to the especial care and at
tention of Dan. Gelw.cks, of the Democrat.
Mr. W. (.'line, the very gentlemanly treasurer
should also be properly eared for, and we
take the liberty of nominating John O'Don
nell to fulfill that duty. He will find it a
pleasant one.
Wagon Road. —The wugou road meeting
at the Hill comes off to-day. We trust that
as many of our citizens ns can make it con
venient will attend. The last steamer brings
intelligence that the Government will push
forward tlie construction of the National
road with all possible dispatch, and Amador
should be "up and doing” iu the general
scramble to secure the trade and travel that
will follow. Although we have a route ex
clusively our own, let us reap an advantage
from other sources wherever und whenever
we can do so honorably.
Attention, Saw Mill Men!— See the ad
vertisement of Mr. H, Hu (Taker, who offers
the Hutte Saw Mill for saie. It is one of
the best mills iu the county, situated in the
midst of splendid timber, and has a market
for all the lumber that can be cut. Mr. 11.,
we believe, designs paying u visit to his
friends iu the Atlantic Slates.
Residence for Sale. —Mr. Evans offers
for sale one of the neatest and most eligibly
situated residences in Jackson. See adver
tisemeut elsewhere in this paper.
At the Washington Restaurant, Jackson,
advertised elsewhere, the substantial and del
icacies of the season are served up in first
rate style and at moderate prices. Mr. J. T.
Davenport has recently taken the establish
ment, and will spare no pains to render entire
satisfaction to the public.
Gloomy Prospect Ahead. — A man named
Moore, in Nevada county, has been found
guilty of wilful murder, and is also under
sentence of fifteen years in the State Prison
for violating the person of a married woman.
The cell of the wretched creature will be a
three-by-six vault, with earthen bottom, top
and sides.
"
An Honest John Chinawoman. —There is
a Chinawoman at this place who helped her
husband build them a house, and may be
seen any day busily at work, mining in the
creek with him. The Celestial "beauty”
wields the pick and shovel with the air of a
miniature Amazon.
Miss Mary Provost.— This lady, support
ed by a troupe of actors, among whom are
Messrs. Barry, Anderson, Hamilton and oth
ers, is making the tour of the mountains, and
will be in this neighborhood soon. The So
nora papers are in ecstacies; the Union Dem
ocrat, especially, has found its beau-ideal of
an actress and lady in Miss Provost. The
company appear in comedy and farce.
Horrible. —ln Marysville, a few days
since, G. H. Yates shot and killed a young
woman because she would not, "for the pres
ent,” agree to marry him, and then immedi
ately killed himself. Spiritualism was at the
bottom of it.
Far the Weekly Ledger.
TRACKS OF A TRAVELER,
{Continued from first page.)
■\Vitli many regrets at leaving a place where
1 had been so kindly treated, (no wrong con
struction on this last word if you please,) 1
left lone for a tramp up Dry creek. A short
walk brought me within the purlieus of
muletown.
This is the principal mining locality (in
connection with the Boston Store,) in this
section, ami is an active camp, many of the
claims paving better than those of fur more
noted places.
The reason for giving this so stubborn a
name was explained to me very satisfactorily
by one of its citizens, and is that it is located
on Mule creek! What better came could be
desired? “ lint why do you call it Mule
creek ?” I demanded. This was a poser,
which the inquiree (a legal term, that; i.s’nt
it good though?) took occasion to improve
by saying very sagely , (or timely if you like,)
“You should never enquire into the cause of
causes.” Very good advice, which all would
do well to follow. It is proper to know what
causes a foot-print but higher than that it is
very improper to extend our investigations.
/ Families are not a scarce article here and
“little responsibilities” are numerous: and
the cry is, “ still they come,” which i> a no
torious fib, for thev do cry like chcrubims.
» *
If the nnromantic name of the town has
1 suggested to any one that it is a place to be
avoided, I can assure them they have come
to wrong conclusions. The only stubbornness
I noticed was in a determination to work,
and that to some purpose.
in the multiplicity of trails leading from
here I “ rayther” think I took the wrong one
! on leaving, as it was not long before I found
| myself “somewhere,” a place, by the way
where 1 have been seen often by divers indi
viduals; but where was T ? “That is the
| ’
question.” In the woods, of course; but
what course ? .My good judgment brought
me out all right at Whittle’s store; had 1
taken the wrong direction it would have
| been had luck. Thus we ever give ourselves
full credit for what terminates to suit us, and
lay nil failures on misfortune.
Being now sure I was right, 4 I went ahead,
as the proverbial Crocket advised, and, in so
doing, soon found myself at a very flourish
ing camp know ns the Wisconsin .Store. The
store is kept by Mr. West, who I presume is
j one of your subscribers as I saw a copy of
the Ledger there with his name on it. If the
number of men at work and the amount of
goods sold is any index to the prosperity of
a camp, then this stands high on the list. I
; saw at least seventy white men at work (not
pretending that these were all) and any num
ber of Chinamen.
An incident that gave me a favorable
opinion of this place occurred some weeks
ago. 1 was passing through here just ns they
hud received the papers by the then last
steamer. Every one was purchasing a paper
from the places nearest ids old home in the
Atlantic States, and I counted forty-three
persons in groups, some reading aloud, others
listening anxiously to the news. 1 felt
proud of them as Americans as I looked on
their intelligent faces, and loved them for ,
their love of “The old folks at home.” As
I passed one of the groups the reader was
just giving the marriages, and 1 observed one
young fellow start from his listening attitude
and hasten away. Had some fair one proved
“false as lair” to her plighted troth? Or
had he treasured a silent hope that he would
find one who be was too proud to woo while
he was in poverty, yet unmarried when he
should return with wealth ami a true heart
to lay at her feet; and was this link in his
chain of happiness snapped asunder? While
pondering on what may or may nut be, this
incident having been ret ailed to my mind at
this lust visit, 1 did not pay much attention
to things outside till 1 reached
narrows*.
The Grst thing that attracts ones notice on
entering Hrytown from the east is a small,
red building on the hill side in the opposite
part of town. Had it been a wooden con
cern I would have known without enquiry
its use. It was evidently of brick, with an
iron door and seemed fire-proof. Too small
for most purposes, and too large to have been
built for fun, I knew it was intended for a
purpose. A lucky thought struck me; it
was the village calaboose! Proud of my
discernment I thought I'd test it on the first
man 1 met. “Is there any one in your
“lock-op,"at present,”said I, pointing to the
little mystery. “ What, in the powder-mag
azinc?” replied he. “Yes, oh yes!” said 1,
and passed on without waiting for further
answer. I had not been so discerning
after all.
Making tracks is rather a fatiguciug busi
ness, and 1 assure you 1 felt rather pleased at
the sight, of the sign of Hell’s Exhange. Here i
let me say to fellow travelers that if they
desire to exchange their loose change for “the
best the market affords,” they had better
“stop John Gilpin, here's the house," where
comfort is sure to be found.
During the evening I managed to make
myself quite at ease with your correspondent
Hi-? '(*, and several other of the cHijea*. Of
course we talked a great deal and smiled
some: but, as they made me promise not to
tell tales out of school, I must be careful.
Have I been too trival heretofore? If so,
I will make amends here by introducing a
grave subject, into which though I do not
propose to go very deep.
Dryfown is certainly gifted in burying
grounds, no less than four being in use.—
The last one that received a new tenant was
that of the Catholics. It is on a knoll to
the cast of town and is apparently well cared
for, being enclosed with a good fence and
each grave well marked. Over the gateway
is the inscription “Campo Santo,” the Span
ish name for a grave-yard How much more
beautiful is their name than onrs! When
literally translated it signifies “Holy camp,”
or place. One of the graves has over it a
most imposing monument that cannot fail to
attract attention.
Another is the burial-ground of the
Chinese, of which but little pains is taken
as their interments are only temporary.
To the north of town is one where several
who were warm friends in life now rest near
each other in the cold embrace of death.—
May tiic kind acts to each other here, be
some extenuation for the errors they may
have committed, and plead for them a union
in a better world.
On a beautifully wooded hill to the west
of town is the main cemetery. Near it runs
a rich quartz lead, but its wealth is nothing
to those who now dwell where gold cannot
come.
I had intended to tell you of an adventure
that Wirsen, the snake charmer, had here
with a bed-bug, in which Wirsen was worsted,
but as the bug has since died, his death being
caused by biting an editor, 1 shall not dis
turb his ghost. llequiescat en pacem bed-bug
em.
Bennett’s Circus was here on Wednesday
night, and performed to a good audience.
The riding was artistic, especially that on
bareback. This is no hum-bug; Bennett is
a man who desires to give a quid pro quo for
what he receives.
Knowing that in your columns will be n
communication from here this week, 1 am
warned to be careful or I shall be treading
in the tracks of another.
International Hotel and Restaurant.—
The advertisement of this establishment will
be found in the ledger. It is conducted in
the most approved style. Give it a trial, and
you will be convinced.
Large Clover. —A stock of English clo
ver, taken from the garden of Mr. David
Armstrong, and measuring four fed, bus been
exhibited to us. That will do pretty well
for the mountains.
Quartz. —The proposed State Convention
of (piartz miners will probably be held in
Sacramento early in June.
There seems to be little doubt of a grand
“bust up” among the Mormons at Salt Lake,
before long.
Horse thieves arc much complained of in
the .Merced river country.
In our neighboring county, Calaveras, the
quartz mines arc paying better than ever be
fore.
VOLCANO ITEMS.
The Bai l. —The Firemens’ Ball was not
as well attended as it should have been, for
“No. One’s boys arc glorious set of fellows;’
but we understand that the party was a very
pleasant and agreeable one.
Phelps’ Dramatic Company. —This com
pany played to large, appreciative, and de
lighted audiences four nights of the present
week. They had crowded houses on every
occasion. On the last night, (Thursday) we
learn that large numbers were unable to gain
admission. We are glad to know that Mr.
Phelps and his company are reaping the re
ward which their merit richly deserves.
Indian Gulch. —In this locality, a vast
amount of gold is taken out weekly. There
is no claim that docs not pay well, and many
of them enormously. Indian Gulch and
Union Flat make up as rich a locality us can
be found in the State.
Muii ala Flat. —This famous locality holds
out as well as ever. There is a bountiful sup
ply of water, and all the companies at work
are doing well.
The “ circurious” was in \ oleano last
night.
