CALIFORNIA CHRoNIcLE.-This is the title
of new daily paper in San Francisco, the
first number of which is before US 1t is of
the size and general appearance of the Alta.
1t is neutral in politics and conducted by
Frank Soule & Co. The ability of its conduc-
tors is a sure guarantee that in this respect it
will be excelled by no journal in the State.

legally granted, that it was therefore void,
and consequently she was not bound to res
pect it, If Austria herself, had the declaring
of the law, tyrant though she may be, she
could ask for but one step more-and that
would be the right to punish the officer who
&ad been guilty of the illegal act. And if one,
&hy not the other.
! Did we not have all the circumstances of the
case in view, we might find positions in the
reply of the Secretary to which there might
be some dissent. But, as it is, we do not doubt
the unqualified appreciation of the nation.
What may be the consequences, we do not
know; but, with National Executive like that
we now have, we do not fear. We are assured
of this much, however, that the consequences,
whatever they may be, will not be disgraceful.
What will Austria do in the matter : She
has dema nded satisfaction for the insult Offer
ed her by the conduct of Capt. Ingraham
Mr.. Marcy replies 60 the President does not
see sufficient cause for disavowing the acts of
the American agents which are complained of
by Austria. Her claim for satisfaction, on
that account, has been carefully considered,
and is respectfully declined" Will Chevalier
Hulseman receive orders from his Imperial
Majesty to demand his passport and ''shake

ence of the people to the oppressive laws,
which take the proceeds of honest toll to pam
per luxurious idleness
If England would guarantee wise and well
founded republican liberty to Hungary, il
France would secure the Italian States against
the oppressive exactions of Papal dominion il
Prussia would liberate her political prisoners
and untrammel her press; if France would Ell
ther tear the jewelled crown from her usur-
ping Emperors brow, or compel him to estab-
lish system of free and enlightened schools;
and permit liberal enfranchisement of the
press, to prepare that volatile people for fu-
ture self -government-then this war in Eu-
rope might be looked to with some degree of
complacency by the christian world. No man
who is true to human right and the promotion
OF human happiness, could consistently op-
pose war which gave fair promise of such
\results.
On the other hand, if after all the advanta-
ges to be derived to the people of Europe from
the example OF free government here, they are
to remain powerless against their masters; if
every breath of liberty is to be stihed in dun
geons, and every blow in her sacred cause is
to be atoned for on the scaffold if Hungary
is to bleed again, only for the privilege of
being again slave if Lombardy and Pied
mont are to struggle only to fortity some new
tyrant over their heads then the dread of
such war ought to extend beyond the Bourse
and change, and every man in Europe ought
TO stand firm for peace.
Doubtless such war as is threatened would
'deluge Europe in blood, and, would be pro-
longed with vindictiye stubbornness, and the
American people, who care but little for con-
suls unless they purchase iberty-who
look at the popular side of European interest
who regard the farmer in the valley of the
Danube, who sends bread to the old world,
good man as the best son of Hapsburg, will
look on with the hope that some good may
flow to the people who survive the cruel
slaughter.
Our next mails will probably bring US the
nltimatum of the Sublime Porte, and in case
of actual war, in which England and France
shall participate, we may rest assured the
Emperor Nicholas will make their participa-
ton anything but an easy enterprise. Many
a loyal regiment of grenadiers and as many Of
French cavalry, win march towards the rising
sun, who will never return to the West. The
duty of every true friend Of humanity is to
avert this great calamity unless the princi-
Piles Of popular liberty are to be promoted by
the sacrifice.

Hon. RICHARD IRwIN.-We present below
a couple of extracts, the first from the Mes
sen ger, the second from the Genius Of Lib
erty, papers published in Pennsylvania, which
90 to show the estimation in which he was held
by those who knew him at home. BY union
hardly fail of an election before that body for
Speaker:
owe are indebted to gentleman in this
place for the perusal of several interesting
public documents from California, forwarded
to him by Col. Richard Irwin, formerly of
Fayette county, Pa, and now member of
the California Legislature from Butte county.
Col Irwin performed gallant service in the
war with Mexico, as lieutenant in the COM
pany of volunteers from the neighboring
county of Fayette He was among the first
to scale the walls in the desperate but sue
cessful assault upon Chapultepec brief
sojourn among his friends, after the termina
ton of the war, found him again ready for
the encounter of new excitements and new
dangers, and the overland journey to Cali
fornia was the result.
"We know little of the particulars of Dicks
fortunes, or his luck at the diggngs, and had
heard but little of him until he turned up as
d member of the Legislature from one among
the most important counties Of the C Golden
State" Whatever may have been his success
in accumulating the pile which so enticingly
looms up before the vision of the adventurer
in that far-off and romantic region, the fact
that he is now settled down to the grave busi-
ness of legislation is pretty conclusive evi-
dence that he has, doubtless, long since seen,
and bid an affectionate farewell to, that OBJ
ject of curiosity so well known and so anxious
ly sought, called the d" elephant"
'' 1t is but just tribute to his amiable
qualities and many virtues, to say that we
wish him success in all his undertakings"
'' Richard Irwin, formerly of this place, is
now member of the Legislature of Cali
fornia. He left Fayette county some three
or four years ago to take up his residence in
the land of golden promise Last fall he
was nominated by the democracy of Butte
county and elected to the Legislature. He is
young man of considerable ability, brave
soldier, and an unfinching democrat, and it
will be gratifying to his numerous friends in
this county to hear of his good luck, upon
which we must congratulate him."

Can Bear to Live Unloved.

Yes, l can bear to live unloved,
lfthou hast none TO give;
Can walk life's sandy path alone,
II ! am doomed TO live,
Pulses have beat on desert plnins;
When no green trees grew near-A
Courage alone is strength and life,
And death is often fear.
I'll brave the world, (if thy false heart.
Pronounce the doom) alone:
Without kindred heart 10 beat,
In answer 10 my own;
Without gentle heart to soothe
This forehead in its pain,
I'll battle till conquer loye,
And win my peace again.
But never will bend my knee,
At any idol shrine;
No shrine is lovely TO me now,
None ever was but thine,
And can bear TO live unloved,
Since thou hast none 10 give,
Can walk hfe's sandy path alone,
If am doomed TO live.

IA practice OF passing what is called "Defc-
iency bill" early in each session of Congress
To this bill every contrivance for sucking
money from the Treasury without reason or
due authority naturally tends; into IL, every
scheme OF corruption aud impudent venalty
inserts its proloscis il it can. Jobs too bare
faced to find countenancc anywhere else: log
rolls thst have broken through in tho middle
while their hackers are lifting hard at either
end during tn, pendency of tho General APP
preparation bills: and all manner of the rank
est productions of claim-agont audaciiy and
office holding knavery take shelter. IL they can
get il, under the broad wings of this Deficien-
cy bill. There the next Congress will doub.-
less find this Double Pay reprobate silly nest
led under some such innocent phraseology as
this:
"For six months salary of tho Governor Of
Oregon. twelve hundred and fifty dollars"
and fthis should slip through, by the votes of
men who do not suspect its covering anything
moro than an accidental omission in The Gen
eral Appropriation of last session. tho prcce-
dent will be established. and nothing rema ~
but 10 stand the consequences. Among these
will be pc tions from the heirs of all manner
of by. gone fnnctionaries for tho payment of
like allowances to hich ,hcy would have been
entitled had the Double Pay system been es-
tablseed while ogo.
We blame no one for what is past. The
heads of Departments mt Washington are so
run down and worn out by Office seekers that
they have hitherto found no adequate time
for the deliberate performance of their official
duties. Everything that can wait must be
postponed, everything else must bo hurried
through, until the Office seekers can be got rid
of. If that end shall ever be attained, we
trust this matter of Double Pay will be taken
up ana carefully reviewed, in which case the
conclusion reported as hitherto can hardly
fail TO be reversed Tho President is univer-
sally believed TO be the friend of Economy and
Honesty in the public Expenditures; but so
wero nearly or quite all his predecessors with
their responsible advisers. The vulgar slang
which assumes that any Chief Magistrate has
conscouly connived at the robbery Of the
Treasury by certain of his supporters, is un-
worthy of serious consideration. But tho in
iluencos surrounding the Departments are u
sually paid,and good many may be confused
aud mised by them. Ifthe Departments fail
to do justice in the premises, Congress, i'm
PEELED by the Nation. must redress tho wrong
and explicitly affirm the principle that new
office-holders term of service does not COM
menco until that of his predecessor shall have
terminated.
