 Beneath Its dark and foul eclipse. l know that life must hencelorth be
 A weary and unbessed thng; That hope can lend no ray 10 me,
 Nor flowers along my pathway spring We'll, be it so--my strife hath been
 Beyond the low and vulgar aim The deeds of base and heartiess men,
 Have never dImmed my humble fame; And am proud-sye. even now
 Amid the shades Of deepening iI; The fearless iread--the open brow
 The priceless hand are left me still Take back the bowl will not steel
 The hsllowed mem'ries Of the past They add no bangs to those feel.
 Nor shadows on the future cast; Aye take 1t back. let others fling
 Oblivion OCT the haunted soal- My memory is cherished thing
 Away away ! take back the bowl An upright heart--a guiitIess brow
 A soni nnbcwed, are Ieit aone;- will not break in madness now,
 The only staff lean upon. The keenest pangs that grief can send
 Shall never prompt 10 deeds accnrsed-- Take back the bowl-I will not bend

pie of California on the subject Of slavery; and
that it was never intlmated TO him that he was
expected to attempt to influence their action
in the slightest degree on that subject The
charge made against Mr.. KING has been that he
instigated induced or advised the Californians
to exclude slavery. The reply has always
been that he was not instructed, and never I'M
dert0ok 10 NEEDLE with the subject in any
manner. His remark 10 Mr.. SEMPLE was
merely the expression of a desire that they
would leave nothing for Congress to do in the
way of further legislation, and includes no in
tlmatlon as TO the nature Of the government
or the provisions of the constitution. At that
time it was the received opinion Of Southern
statesmen, of all parties, that the people, in
the formation of State Government, had an
unconditional right to fashion their own domes-
tic institutions to their own liking.
1.-THE Califurnians had established slavery by
their constitution, there was nothing in Mr..
KINGS casual remark TO Mr.. SEMPLE which
could have been interpreted as solicitation OF
advice to such course. 1t related TO no such
topic, one way or the other; and we hope that
persons and presses with any regard to veracity
will cease to give circulation to these exploded
calumnies.
