The Vide West thus takes off a presen-
tation affair, which is fresh in the recol-
lection of our readers.
INTERESTING PRESENTATION CEREMo-
NY.-An interesting ceremony took place
at the Oakland Ferry yesterday, on the
occasion of the departure of A. Mnggins,
Esq, for Contra Costa, the details OF
which, though not intended for publica-
ton, we cannot prevail upon ourselves to
suppress. Dust as MIR. Muggins, followed
by his son. Gan interesting youth of four
teen years, 10 whom, despite his tender
age, had been intrusted his fathers car
pet-bag,) } Was about stepping on the plank
kindly placed for the accommodation OF
the passengers, under the direction Of the
officers of the boat, by their skilful as
sistants, which rendered the passage from
dock to steamer Otherwise perilous,) com
paratiyely safe, a gentleman whose name
we are not permitted to give, approached
him, and after few appropriate words,
presented him with paper of pins, CT
extraordinary size, remarkable polish, and
possessing peculiar penetrating proper
ties. Scarcely had Mr.. NJ recovered from
the effect OF this sudden and delicate cx-
hibition of personal regard, when another
of his personal friends banded him a box
of matches, which he had hardly time to
examine when third gentleman (well
known in our community profered him,
With that courtly grace which accom- panies
all his actions, pair of stockings. The
most remarkable feature of this display of
good feeling and personal friendship, is
that neither cfMese gentleman acre aacare
Of the intentions Of the others We regret
our inability to present to our readers Mr..
Nj. s remarks on the affecting occasion.
His ,allusions to the silk manufacture,
called forth by the articles OF apparel
above alluded to- which at somc future
day will flourish in our midst, were cxcee-
dinghy eloquent, and but for an imperti-
nent remark on the part of bystander,
who stated that the articles in question
were cotton, would have produced pro-
found impression on the assembled audito-
ry. His remarks, however, were cut short
by the ringing of the last bell, during
which he took leave of his friends and EN-
barked 1t is believed that he VII, return
during the coming week.
These appropriate gifts, though manu-
factured in this State, are all articles of
California commerce. Tie stockings and
Plus were purchased at the extensive
evening sale Of Don Jean Barato, on
Long Wharf, and the matches are from
the establishment of Mons. Jean Bon;nar-
che, Commercial street In the present
frigid state of our social atmosphere, it is
pleasing to occasionally record such in
stances Of warm esteem and disinterested
personal regard.

a SKETCH OF RUFUS CHoATE.-The
New York Erening Mirror says it don't
know who drew the following graphic por-
trait of Rufus Choate. For his informa-
ton We would state that it originally ap-
peared in the New York Dutchman. 1t
was written by J. s. Kelley C"Jack Hum
phries.'') Poor fellow he is now dead and
cold
Rufus Choate isa picture to look at,
and crcwder to spout. lIe-is about sew
en- feet six, or six feet seven in his socks
supple as au eel and wiry as a cork screw.
His face is compound of wrinkles, yaller
janders and jurisprudence. He has small
keen, piercing black eyes, and head
shaped like mammoth goose egg, big end
up; and his hair black and curly, much
resembling bag of wool, in admirable
disorder" or brush heap in gale Of
wind. His body has no particular shape
and his wit and legal 'dodges,' have set
many judge in a snicker, and SO con-
founded jurors as to make it impossible
for them to speak plain English, or tell
the truth the rest of their natural lives.
Rufus is great on twisting himself up.
squirming himself around and prancing
| jumping and kicking up the dust, when
the stcam's up. His orstory is first rate,
and his arguments ingenious and forci5lc
He generally makes IN strike"- Judge
and jury down at tho sud IF every sem
tence. lie is great on l,wery expres-
sions, and highialutin 'fubbubs.' Stran-
gers mostly think he is crazy, and the rest
scarcely understand what be is about =
He invoices his time and clocution four
thousand per cent, over ordinary charges
for having ones self put through a course
of law. Rufus Choate is about fifty years
of age-perhaps over. He is considered
the ablest lawyer in New England, Or par
haps in the United States His hand
writing can't be deciphered without the
aid Of a pair of compasses and qus drant
His autograph somewhat resembles the
map of Ohio, and looks like piece OF
crayon sketchng, done in the dark with a
three pronged fork. He has been in the
Senate, aud may be, if he has time for it,
President of the United States

Despair.
BY MRS. a. NORTON.

BY MRS. 4. NORTON.
When forced to join the thoughtIess throng,
And listen TO the midnight song;
When forced to minge in the dance,
Return the nod and passing glance
OF smiling frir-I do but dream
am the thing that others seem.
What though the lip may smile at will
''The heart--the heart is lonely stiI''
Consumpton's cheek ne'er looks more pure
And lorelv, than when past ell cure;
And yet that bloom. 30 fresh, still,
Has lent its little aid to kill,
And speaks to those who watch Its iiue
Of sickness, death, and suffering too
Though who. just viewing aught so fair,
Could ever dream that death was therei
And could we see the hearts of those
Who haunt the crowd to drown their woes,
Concealed beneath their smiles we'd find
esrair-consumption of the mind
As sure its end-its means more slow
It's seeming health feverish glow
Which throws around hft ful Eight,
Then dies-and leaves it doubly night.
Then, when you see me smile and laugh,
With those who pleasures goblet quaff,
Think. though you see me drink as deep
Despair may smile, but cannot weer-
Nay, smile in mockery, alas
As bloom can O. er the features pass,
When all is dead within-yet feel
A psng that smiles can but conceal.

of s'good Samaritans,' aud is now in fair
way of recovery from his serious wounds.
He has decided to east his lot among US,
and patiently await the avenging of his
cause, which he trusts is not far distant
Freemenl upon you I call shall these
unjust aggressions be longer tolerated?
Were you as short-sighted as your infat-
uated enemies, you could well rise in the
majesty of your might, and with one
Herculean effort sweep from your pres
enee the detestable offspring of tyranny
But our better judgment points out a
higher, nobler, a far brighter course to
pursue. Already the "Lone star of hope"
begins to shine out more clearly through
the mists and fogs of iniquity, to stimn-
late the faltering to renewed exertion.-
Hundreds whose proclivities have always
been to the pro-slavery ranks, are turning
with disgust from their former inclina-
tons, exylaiming. in the spirit of their
Fathers, that those principles so dearly
bought, should on the virgin soil of Kan
sas be perpetuated, and "life, liberty.
and thepursuitof happiness" beby ALL
enjoyed. Let but the sanctity Of the
balIot-box be regained, and Kansas. with
her present majority of the champions of
Freedom, will rise from the abyss of In
fanny to which her enemies had coHsign-
ed her, and stand out on the pages of
American history as striking example
ofthe conquest of truth. In. haste, | re-
main a KANSAS FARMER.
