senator Stockton, OF wow jersey
This distinguished and gifted man was born in New
Jersey He entered the navy in 1871 as mdshipman,
and in 1924 was promoted TO the rank OF eaptan-he
highest in the navyafier having served in all the subor
dnate grades with honor and distinction Ia 1916 he
succeeded 10 the command OF the Pacific squadron while
our country was al v it'll Mexico Although his
force was SMALL he accomplished the conquest OF Cali
forna by his victories the banks OF the San Gabriel
and the plains OF the Mesa.
This conquest added another bright star 10 the flag Of
our Union, and doubt saved many Of his countrymen
from bankruptcy and ruin In 1850 he resigned his COM
mission in the navy aud in the following year elect
ed senator OF the United States by the Legislature of
his native State.
Shortly after taking his seat in the Senate. he made
able and eloquent speech against the restoration OF fog
gng in the navy. In this speech he showed the natural
impulses OF his noble and generous heart His words
bear the mark OF candor. integrity and sincere desire
elevate the character OF the seaman, and to promote the
interest oil the navy in which he long and honorably
served His sentiments in perfect harmony with the
feelings OF the age and approved by millions OF his
iellow-ctzens.
Whatever may be the opinion OF those who advocate
tho continuance OF foggng in the nayya relic OF barba-
rous times revolving to the best feelings OF nature,
and degrading to the human Characteristic time will come
when wrong however deep and raaed its roots may be,
will droop, and eventually wither away before the be-
nign influence OF justice and humanity. Our ideas
do not at the present day range merely on the sur
face OF things. No, not at all. We have com
menced probing, and will continue TO probe till we
discover that we are ALL of every class. with com
mon interests, common sympathies and common des,i-
MES No man be sincerely attached to flag which
allows him 10 be whipped like brute, and authorizes
his degradation. No, never! Nor there be
any real friendship between the oppressed and the oppres
sor. Seamen should feel and know that the country
they takes real and lively interest in their honor
and welfare. A good government is only felt by lis
benefits II honors the great and never Expresses the
weak. II is ever an enemy 10 wrong, and friend TO
justice. Floggng makes man hate rather than love his
country. 1t never made sailor what he ought TO be
but il has often rendered those who forgetfu and
careless rather than vicious insensibe TO honor and
abandoned to crime. Reason and humanity look with
Indignation and horror such debasng punishment as
aogging and reemen and lovers of humanity will never
perceive its propriety or justice.
II is very fortunate for the navy that Mr. Stockton is
in the Senate at this particular period His great and
practical experience in naval affairs and liberal views
will greatly assist in efecting such changes in the laws
OF the navy as may be found necessary 10 promote the
interest of all grades. CALIFORNIA.

Senator Clemens, Of Alabama.

The subjoined extract OF article from the Mobile
Register does us injustice, so far it conveys the
impression that the Washington Union in its com
ments upon the recent letter OF this distinguished
senator to Mr. Fleming, intended 10 do anything
more than urge all the friends OF the democratic
party in that State 10 bury their dissension and
unite the ancient platform OF the party II being ad-
mted on all hands that the issues raised by the Nash.
vile southern convention abandoned and that the
South will stand unit in maintaining the Compro-
mise settlement Of the slavery question: there
exst necessity for the separate organizations which
arose from conflicting views this subject during the
recent elections Hence we have considered il almost
impossible that there can be any serious movement
10 organize third party in Alabama or elsewhere
Nothing can produce different result but the i'm.
prudence OF individuals in seeking 10 visit upon each
other judgment in consequence OF former differ
imprudence which trust will soon cease 10
find medium for its mischievous work in the demo-
cratic papers.
We have seen, with deep regret reproaches cast upon
the compromise democrats OF the South because the re-
suits OF the public judgment in favor OF acquiescence in
that measure have not been obtained without bringing
into power men who might not otherwise have been in
the field Itis, for example, said by many OF the jour
Dals IN hIssssppl lnat IL IL lne Iaut OF MT rooe ana
his supporters that that gallant State is divided and
is represented by Union party instead OF democratic
party All such language is Liberal and unjust, and can
have no other effect than make permanent the breach
which il is the wish of all true democrats 10 heal Those
thus assaed could with truth tina, the democratic
party had adopted the principles Of the souhern-rgbs
party as represented by Governor Quilman the political
result would have been the complete triumph Of the wing
party.
II is doubtless under the sting OF reproacbes orgina
ting in similar misrepresentation OF his position as
Union democrat, that Senator Clemens looks with dis.
us, upon the reorganization OF parties which is taking
place in his State II he be prescribed for bis effort
to keep out Of the democratic creed the dsunion projects
OF the Nashville convention, IL is but natural that he
should hold himself ready to repel such injustice We
trust however, that the future will remove such dstrus
and that and considerable conduct Of the great body
OF his democratic friends will bring about that co opera
