The "long-hairs" or old line Republicans secured the organization of the Convention, an 1 evinced the determination to carry out a programme for the benefit of their wing, in defiance of Conness but for reasons that do not appear upon the surface perhaps the threat of a bolt by the Connessites they subsequently loosened their grip, and came off with the smaller honors of the convention. In fact were completely beaten in the important matter of Congressional nominations, as the Connessites secured all their candidales. For Senatorial Electors J.

G. McCallum, "long hair," and Sam Brannan, "short hair," were nominated. The other three electors wa are not able to classify, but surmise lhat they belong to the "long hair" persuasion. Both sides seemed pretty well satisfied and they adjourned to meet in three separate Congressional conventions. As the old liners had exhibited a decided majority in Stale Convention, and had all along been clamorous for separate conventions lo nominate Congressmen, it was presumable they would secure soma if not all, of these much sought for positions.

But it seems they "went after wool and came out shorn" not obtaining a single nomination. TEE CHICAGO 50MIHEES. Tbe Democratic Convention at Chicago bas chosen General George B. McCiellan, for President, and George II, Pendleton, of Ohio, for Vice President. We eonfesa that tbe nomination of General McCiellan was unexpected by us, as we bad supposed that Millard Fillmore, Frankliu Pierce, or Tbos.

II. Seymour' would be more acceptable as nominees to the democracy of the Middle 8nd North. western States. Our own first choice was for that gallant true democrat, Thomas II. Seymour, of Connecticut, and it would have afforded us sincere gratification lo announce him as the chosen standard bearer of the party.

But the representatives of the great Democratic parly, gathered together from the Atlantic lo the shores of the Pacili, many of (hem the most able and distinguished men of the land, and all actuated by the one desire to restore our distracted country lo peace and prosperity, determined that George B. McCiellan was tha man for the occasion, and the one to whom the peo, pie would rally with confidence and enthusiasm and to that decision we give our most cheerful and hearty support. Never, upon the American continent was a more noble spectacle witnessed than that displayed at Chicago the present week, where assembled tens of thousands of men, determined to lay aside personal preferences, individual ambitions, and party differences, and act alone for the good of the nation in its hour of dire distress. Country, not self, seemed to bo the moving impulse with the delegates selected to present candidates and a platform of principles and well have they accomplished this work. What ever might have been the hopes of onr opponents that discord would prevail, they have been completely disappointed.

The Convention felt lhat the issues were too momentous to admit of personal and. parly jealousies and engaged in a spirit of compromise and harmony, in preparing a platform and presenting candidates for the suffrages of the nation. The platform is admirable, and just what was to be expected from a Democratic Con. vention. It takes the Constitution as the guide, an demands the preservation and observance of all the guarantees of that sacred instrument.

It gives voice to the yearnings for peace that is now being felt throughout the land, and points out the only AUBUBN, SEPTEMBER 3, 1864. Democratic National Nominations FOB PRESIDENT: GEO. B. UlcCLELLAN, OF PENNSYLVANIA. FOB VICE PRESIDENT: GEORGE PENDLETON OF OHIO.

The telegraph has been more comuiunica-live this week than usual, and what with the proceedings of the Chicago Convention, and the war ne-vs, has given some interesting leading. On Grant's line there has been very heavy fighting, and savere loss to both sides. Grant seems to have relinquished the attempt to reach Riclim ind, by way of Deep Bottom, and to have tried another flank movement south of Petersburg, in order lo occupy the Weldon Railroad. Tha fifth corps (Wan ren's) was first to move, and while getting position, was attacked by Gen. Uill, on Sum day, the 21st of August.

The light was serious, but Warren held his ground sever, al thousands wetM killed on both sides. Sub' sequently Gen. Hancock occupied a position on the extreme left, when he was attacked on Thursiay, the 25th, with great impetuosity, and was driven from bis position, losing some three thousand men as prisoners, beside a number of pieces of artillery. The rebel loss is also said to bu large. At last accounts Warren held his position on the railroad a few miles south of Petersburg.

From the Shenandoah Valley there is nothing important no general engagement having taken place. Fort Morgan, below Mobile, surrendered to Farragui, after twelve hours bombardment. All quiet before Atlanta. The Confederate Gen. Wheeler is raiding extensively in the vicinity of Nashville.

The Indian hostilities on the plains has broken up the Overland Mail for the present. Wont db Comfouted. The Democratic party, with its usual perverseness, has made a Presidential nomination that our opponents do not like. Instead of putting forward a man without elements of great popularity, such as they fell they could easily beat, the Chicago Convention has been stupid enough to trot out "Little Mac," the man whose name is as familiar ns a household word, aud who has the sympathy and affrclion of the people lo such an extent that they will vole for him in spite of the blandishments of power, or the money of shoddy contractors. Sorry you don't like McCiellan, but you'll have to take him! Thiuteentii Voi.rMK, With the, present number of the Placer Herald enters upon the Thirteenth Volume.

Resolved, That the aim and object of the democratic party is to preserve the Federal Union and (he rights of the States unimpaired; and they hereby declare that they consider the usurpation of extraordinary and dangerous powers not granted by the constitution, the subversion ol civil by military laws in tbe Slates not in insurrection, the arbitrary military arrest, imprisonment, trial and seutence of American citizens in States where the civil law exists in lull force, the suppression of the freedom of speech and of the press, the denial of the right of asylum, the open aud avowed disregard of State rights, the employment of unusual test oaths, and interference with and denial ol the right of the right of the people to bear arras in their delcnee. as calculated to prevent the restoration of the Union and the perpetuation of a Government deriving its just powers from the consent of tbe governed. Resolved, That the shameful disregard by the Administration of its duty in respect to our fel-i low citizens who are now, and long have been prisoners of war in a sullering condition, deserves the severest reprobation, on the score alike ol public and common humanity. Resolved, That the sympathy of the democratic party is heartily and earnestly extended to the soldiery of our army who now are aud have beeu in the held under the flag of their country, and in tbeeveut of our attaining power they will receive all the care, protection aud regard that brave soldiers of the Republic have so nobly earned.

The resolutions were adopted with but a few dissenting votes. Nominations for President then being in order, Cominodoie Stockton, of New Jersey, presented the name of General George 15. McCiellan. Senator Salisbury, of Delaware, noiuina tad Gov. Powell, of Kentucky.

Stewart, of Ohio, nominated, Thomas II. Seymour, of Connecticut. Gov. WicklilTe, of nominated Frank lin Pierce, of New Hampshire. McNeill, of Illinois, nominated Horatio Seymour, of New York.

Harris, of Maryland, and Long, of Ohio, stronqly opposed the nomination of MeClel Ian. The names of Powell, Titos. II. Seymour, Pierce, mid Horatio Seymour, were nil with drawn, but without coming to a ballot the Convention adjourned until Wednesday. On re assembling on Wednesday, the "Wigwam" was rrowded to its utmost capao ity, and lens of thousands of people were congregated upon the outside.

WirklitFo, of Kentucky, said thedelegales of the North West were of opinion that cir cumstances may occur, between now aud the 4th of March, for the Democracy of lie country to meet in convention; he therefore moved that the convention should not be dissolved by adj mruim-nt, but remain sub jeel to the call of the Kxeciitive Committee. A communication was then read from the Democratic Nntionnl Committee, embodying the resolution adopted by that Committee, the suhslnnce of which is as follows: That it is the deliberate conviction of this Com. initlee lhat had the life of Stephen A. Doug lass been spared, his gigantic grasp of mind, taken iu connection with his declaim ion that war is disunion, would long since have ret Moled the power of the Federal compact and Hvoiiled the terrible loss tf life lor which nothing an compensate, The President then stated tho question be. fore the Convention to be on ordering the previous question, (balloting for President,) and it wan ordered by a dissenting voice.

The vote whs then taken by States, the Chairman of each delegation announcing the vole. When the Stale were called, Connecticut and Ohio having been paced for a moment, the vote Hood McCiellan 102, and the re. mainder scattering. The different delegations then commenced changing their votes, and the final result was a follows: MuCleli lau 2U2J, Seymour, 231.

In San Fraucisoo, by Geo. F. Brag" and Crane Brigbain. August 27, THE HUMAN HAIR AS LONG BEEN THE STUDY OF THE most scientific men of tbe age, from the fact that close study generally causes the hair to fall off prematurely; and, in consequence, they have given the subject a portiou of their valuable time, trying to invent some method to regain their lost locks: but all their labor was in vain. until PROFESSOR CROCKETT, fter years of hard study devoted to this one- subject, has produced an article that WILL MAKE HAIR CROW, and which, by its use as a Hair-Dressing, will eucctunlly and always prevent its loss even to extreme old Happily, the AMYGDALINE, while possessing these virtues, is a most delightful and agreeable- preparation- far surpassing all the so called Hair Kestoratives ot ttio day, ttiat arc made to be tcreeable without regard to their vntue.

The Hair, when diseased, becomes liarsh and' dry, and commences to turn grey, which ia caused by the nou-secretion, by the capillary glandj, of a peculiar oil It has heretofore been tliought and believed that if the glands were stimnliitcd into action, they would still give a sutncient supply of nourishment to the hair; but, alas! (bey lorgot one very important law of nature, that all stimulants have their reaction; and tho more the glands were stimulated-the sooner the haul loss of the much prized locks. the principle ot the Preparation lnveiucuoy PiiorEssoit C'kockwt is entirely the opposite; instead of stimulatine- the canillarv elands, he feeds them with the substance they require, in turn, the Hair is led by tbeui on tne same principle as giving water to a flower. I'liotKsson Uiiockktt is aware of the fact that the carpings of the invidious will in a great measure prevent manv scnsiblo persons from using the AMYGDALINE; but the day is passed when a creat remedy could be cried down by pseuito All we will say to those wbo are liiiml about uyiiig new prepar uions is, uiw we strictly guarantee the AMYGDALINE to be entirely free Irom all stimulants, and is as harmless as filtered water, and call bu used on tbe smallest infant. AS A HAIlt DRESSING, it ii unequalled by any the world has yet produced. It keeps the head entirely free of dandruff, eruption, pimples imparting to the Hair a beautiful glossy softness not obtained by any known compound.

It will also be found both pleasant and useful as a Cosmetique, surpassing cold cream and lace lotions iu its effects; for chaps, fore breast and nipples we know ol no remedy that is equal to ll- THE PERFUME used is such that tee Amygda-linc will always retain it, and will not become rancid by age; ill fact it is perfect in every particular. l'ltoKKSsoa Crockett's Amtqdalinb can be tiao of all Druggists and dealers everywhere, I rice SOceuts.

I he great contest was looked for in the Second District, when Iligby, (present incumbent and Conness' right bower,) Booth, Yule, and several others were candidates, besides A. A. Sargent to fall back upon. Th canvass for the position had been particularly win in, and Mr. Yule for nionlhs had been canvassing the district for delegates.

It was considered lhat none of the candidales could command a majority of delegates, but that the "long hairs" had the convention. IJigby's name was presented, then Sacramento was expected to follow by i ffei ing Booth as a "long haired" candidate, but instead of that Sacramento to put him forward, and flopped over to Higby. This was like exploding a mine in the ule and Sargent ranks, and showed them instantly that the game was up. The defection of Sacramento secured Iligby's nomination beyond perad venture, and all that was left for Messrs. Yule and Sargent, as to climb down with the best grace they could." Con.

sequently all opposition was withdrawn, and without a ballot Iligby was nominated by acclamation. Every "long hair" in the convention "heard something drop" for there never was a heavier fall in the arena of California politics. And never did little ''Peanut" Conness achieve a more crowning liiumph. Sack-cloth aad ashes, weeping, wailing and knashing of teeth, secret and bitter cursing is all that is left for poor Sargent and poor Ynle. In tho first, or San Francisco District, the "boys" withdrew the naui8 of Billings, the blind they had used to secure the San Fran cisco primaries, and put forward McRuer, one of Conness' pels, and nominated him by just two votes over Mr.

Cole, the present- Representative. It was a close fight, but Conness, with his usual luck, came out victor. In the third district, Tom Shannon was so clearly in a woful minority, that he was early ruled oiT the track. This left, Parks an old Breckinridger, but identified with tha "long hairs," and John Bidivell, "short hair," as the principal candidates. Mr, Bill well does not seem lo have been obnoxious to the old-liners, and was finally perinilled lo receive the nomination by ncclaiiialion but that he may be classed with the "short hairs," and wiil be under the dictation ol Conness, if elected, there can no doubt.

On lie whole, Conness and his friends can claim a signal victory, and the old Republii cans can in the future, as they have for a year past, indulge in the sorrowful reflection, that they ate working in the harness, with John Conness handling the reins and plying whip and spur.
