Dress IN CALIFoRNIA.-A San Fran
cisco editor tells this story about the pre-
vailing taste for finery among the Califor-
MIA ladies: There is, perhaps, no place in
the world where ladies dress so richly as in
California, and the everyday costume OF
lady in San Francisco is quito equal to
a special "get up" for a promenade in that
wonderful thoroughfare, the Broadway of
the Gothamites The good old-fashioned
ten-cent calicoes that our grand d-mothers
used to wear, which were made up On
economical principles, and not to run to-
araist, are here scarcely ever seen; but,
"though lost to sight, are to memory dear )"
In those good old days, dress three
yards i'll circumference was considered
sufficiently ample, but now it takes more
material to dress lady than to cnvelop
respectable mummy We have not passed
anything in our streets, time out Of mind
but silk and satin: how rich and pleasant
it sounds as it rustles past-so luxurious
and refined Yesterday, as we were
plodding in sober reflection towards our
sanctum, lady came out Of store and
moved gracefully on in front Of us her
figure was elegant; a rich China silk swept
the pavement and cigar-stumps; a splen-
did Canton Grape shawl enveloped her
shoulders hand encased in a white kid
hung gracefully over one arm q French
embroidered handkerchief emitted an odor
of u ockey Club" Our curiosity to see
the face Of the fair proprietrcss Of these
dry goods was intense we walked faster,
got before her, dropped our walking stick
stopped to pick it up, and as we regained
our upright position, the face met ours.
Shade Of departed romance it was our
washer-woman, Sally, respectable "cui-
lard puSsun" of the tu5t water.

CONGRESSIONAL.

Mr.. Weller has introduced resolution

relation to the Consul Dillon affair. but
the answer has not yet been rcceived.-
The committee on territories in the House
have agreed unanimously to make favor
able report upon the bill of last session to
establish subtcrranean line Of magnetic
telegraph to California. Great hopes are
entertained by the delegation Of either
this bill or the bill to establish a line of
Nail steamers between San Francisco and
Shanshae. The report will first be made
to carry the latter measure, and if that
fails successful fight will probably be
made for the telegraph. 1t seems to be
pretty generally conceded that both
cannot be carried at the present

Free speech"---An Incident.


A friend relates the particulars of an

St. Louis; and the story is worth repeat
ing -
An itinerant street preacher was hold
ing forth one day in the vicinity of the
Court House, and, as is usual with thai
genus, was inveighing in strong language
against foreigners. A police officer in
| the vicinity suffered the speaker to 90
ahead until crowd had collected around
him and some symptoms Of disturbance
were manifested, when he interposed
with
"Look here. old fellow, that can't be
permitted here. You must come down
from there ]"
The officer laid hands on the speaker,
and was about to dismount him from the
box on which he stood, demonstration
that produced a sensation in the audi
tors, and they cried outas they felt, some,

you ought to throw off this childish re-

yourself; be independent and manly !,
take its responsibility and fulfil its du-
ties. And it is certain. that if such an
one does take his liberty, be viii find that
he has taken an obligation rather than a
right-howerer true it may be, that
every obligation is right. Perhaps
some sorrow. and disappointment would
have been saved him, had he sooner
learned that liberty is less right than a
duty less privilege than a response
bility.
What we wish to see corrected, is not
the practice of presenting liberty as a
right, but the practice of presenting 1t as
a right rather than as a responsibility.
Integrity, virtue, sobriety, kindness, and
such like, are rights, and yet it seems
awkward to call them such /; and for the
reason that they are not so much rights,
as they are obligations. So liberty is
right; but men do not fully appreciate
1t, until they view it in its higher char
acter as a responsibility and duty

By GEORGE S. BURLElGH.
Hark to the roar of the surgesl
Hark 10 the wild winds howl,
See the black cloud that the hurricane urges,
Bend like a maniac's scowli
Ion the sunken ledges
Drive the devoted 5aTque.
And the low waves, ike hundred sledges,
Smite to thedoom5d mark.
Shr;ily the shrek Of the seamen
Cleaves ike dart thfo' the roar;
Harsh as the pitiless laugh of demon
Rattles the pebbled shore.
Ho, for the lifa-boat, brothersl
Now may the hearts of the brave,
Hurting their lives to the rescue of othersss
Conquer the stormy wave.
Shame, for humanity's trcason;
Shame to the form We wear;
Blush, at the temple of pity and reason
Turned to a robbers lair:
Worse than TIE horrible breakers,
Worse than the shattering storm,
See the rough-handed, reinorseless wreekeTs,
Stripping the clay yet warm.
Plucking at girIhood's tresses,
Tangled with gems and gold;
Snatching love-tokeps from manhood's caresses
Clenched with dying hold.
What of the shrieks of ofdespairing?
What of the last. faint gasps
Robbers, who lived would but lessen your sharing
Gold. twas god in Your grasp.
Boys in their sunny brown beauty,
MeE in their rugged bronze,
Women whose wall might have taught wolye.
their duty,
Died on the mereiless stones.
Tenderly sid DER the plnndcred,
Shrouds from the wlIite-cappea surge:
Loud on the traitors the mad ocean thundered,
Low DER the lost sang dirge.
Wo! there are deadlier breakers,
Billows that burn as they roll,
Flank'd by legion of cruelier wreckers-
Wreckers of body and SOUL
Traitors to God and humanity:
Circes that hold in their urns
Blood dripping murder and hopeless insanity,
Folly and famine by turns.
Crested with wine redly flashing,
Swollen with liquid fire,
Low the strong Iuin comes, fearfnlly dashing,
High as the soul walks and higheri
Manhood and virtue and beauty,
Hope and the sunny-haired bliss,
With the diyiner white angel of duty,
Sink in the burningabyss.
What if the soul of the drrnkard
Shrivel in quenchless fanca
What if his children by beggary conquered,
Plunge into ruin and shame!
GOLD has come into the wreckers,
Murder has taken her prize!
Gold, tho million hearts burst on the breakers
Smothers the crime andthe cries.

Haunting me are words 50 cherished,
Dearls loved those tones, and low,
But they bring the hopes that persisted
With the summers golden glow
WheYr the radiant charm OF howers
Laid aside her robes Of pride,
And assumed her autumn gatiaIld,-
When the beauteous roses died. >
Then NV heart. It's hopes f0rsaking,
learned at sorrows touch 70 thrill;
Learned 20 dread the nofn's awaklIg,
And wish in vain for Eethes chill
"Why,;'I cried, my soul outpouring,
.-Comes such grief while life is youngi
Age gives strength; bttt youth: depioiibS,
Faints and dies with bcaTt thus wrung-
Tie dim future lies before me,
Filled with memories, robbed of light;
Saviour, end my short, sad story;
Iwould sleep and 'scape the night"
Summer came, with gold tress braided,
Roses crowned again her brow;
As their blossoms fell, and faded.
Peace returned with olive bough.
As the star the shepherds gnided
To our Sayioar's humble bed,
So light beamed through the darknesss
To point the way His chosen tread.
Then knew the draught, so bitter,
Came from His kind, Christening hand,
To wean my hops from ties that fetter,
And fix them on the 'better land
have LOST the trust unfalteTing
once had in earthly things;
/ have learned to look for altering,
Mid the sheen the present brings;
Mid the radiance now enfoiding,
Whisper voices, twill not stay.
Thy hearts last stsunshine now surrounds thee
Soon thou'it see it fade away"
Sorrow's waves may yet sweep DER me,
But potentspeli is WON:

The Boston Atlas most truly says
1.-The spirit of intolerant, aggressive
devotion to the spread of slavery is SO in
nate and predominant an element in most
Southern politicians, that it is idle to
think of any union or cooperation with
them, except on terms dishonorable to
manhood, until after the question of the
freedom of the Territories is settled for
ever. Until the great wrong of the Ne
braska outrage has been righted, until
Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota, Oregon,
Washington, New Mexico and Utah are
admitted as free States, all attempts to
form a National party on any other
terms or conditions than Northern hu-
initiation and funkeyism, will be vain
and impotent. 1t is simply impossible. {"
This is getting to be the settled opin;
ion of a very large majority of the people
of the non-slaveholding States. The old
issues are dead. The Democratic party
monopolizes the pro-slaveryism of the
country. All attempts to rival its SER

Northern people, instead Of forever pan
dering to the ambition of the slavehold-
ers, and such party will sweep through
every free State, and rescue the govern
ment and the country itself from the de-
struction which threatens it.-Ex
