Wing party, and the integrity of the
Union"
Or with the equally orthodox Democrat
ic doctrine, declared by the national con-
vention of the same year. We have dill
igently searched for the last national plat
form of the democratic party, and enquir-
ed of the sachems Of the party without eff
feet, only receiving reference to Hugh
Kelly, as a distinguished member of the
party, and most likely to have it. But
as Mr.. Kelly has not recovered from his
recent sparring without gloves,'' we did
not call on him. If any one will hand US
the documents, we will publish the section
in reference to the compromise of 1850. J
The sentiments that were the test of ma
tionality at the last presidential election,
are now the test of abolitionism. But,
gentlemen, the thing is overdone. Presi-
dent Pierce's pet measure has left him
without a party. Sacred obligations can
not be rubbed out like an old account from
slate, and naught come Of it. The dis
like to Pierce has endless ramifcations.
and damns his supporters wherever they
show their heads And the doctrine that
slavery of right belongs anywhere, is con-
troverted by the very measure that was
designed to give it force. Instead of OPEN
ing wider field to the institution, rapid
contraction of its sphere is taking place

nsap At the request Of our friends Messrs.
Marvin & Hitchcock, we have examined and
with much pleasure, the book entitled New
CARMINA SAcRA, published by Rice & Ken
dali, Boston, and Marvin & Hitchcock, San
Francisco. 1t is by far the best known and
most popular collection of Church music ex-
tant in the United States. It's immense sales
at the East plainly show it, as about half a
million copies have been disposed of, and the
demand still RACES.
We would most heartily commend the
above book to choirs, and others who may
be seeking for singing book, as we believe it
to be the best compound of church music ever
printed. See advertisement Of Marvin 6
Hitchcock in another column.

GREAT MES's DANcING.-We read that Ma
poleon was very awkward dancer, On one
occasion he danced with a very beautiful coun-
tess, who could not conceal her bushes a. his
ridiculous postures. On leading her to her
seat, he remarked "The fact is, my forte lies
so muchin dancing myself as in making others
dance" This reminds US OF an anecdote Of
Daniel Webster, who, being present at a ball
in Washington during his incumbency as Sec
retary Of State, was asked by an enemiuate
ioppish sort Of a chap, who thought a good
deal Of his own dancing. don't you dance,
Mr.. Webster? / never see you dancing -
NO" said 1lr. Webster, as he only could say
and lock such things, Il never had the cap9o.-

MANDANUs CAsE.-Judge Hester has
ordered a mandatory mandamus to the
State officers, requifing them to keep their
Offices at San jose A Lrw of the State
requires them to hold their Offices at Sac
ramento The State officers viii of course
remain. An appeal has bean taken to
the Supreme Court, which meets in Janu-
ary. The legislature will meet the first
Monday in January, and will undoubtedly
settle the Capitol at Sacramento by a two
thirds vote, so that the decision of the Su-
preme Court will have little effect, if ad-
verse. But we believe the Court Will de-
eide the law constitutional. We look up
on this little ferment at San Jose as the
expiring effort Of that ambitious little place.
If the citizens wish to sell whiskey and
beef for Legislative consumption, they
had better move to Sacramento.

The DEDICATION Of the ". E. Church,
after the extensive and beautiful reGting
just accomplished, took place on Sunday
last. The dedicatory sermon and prayer
were by the Rev Mr.. Daniels. The
choir discoursed superior music on the oc-
casion, and eyinced much practice as well
as skill. The sum Of $851, 80 was raised
by collection and subscription, entirely
clearing off the debt for the repairs. The
society wish us to return their thanks
through our columns for this liberal and
praiseworthy act.
