Aside from the merit Of the bill, however the
claims Of the beneficiary upon our paygoers should
gil the house to overlooking. His acting has always
been characterized by the correctness, power and
good taste, which mark the genuine actor-the actor
who looks not on the drama as q mere mechanical
means Of making living, but as something noble
and exalted something worthy the highest strivings
of human genius. He has In consequence always
been admired by the patrons of the drama here and
will be admired, wherever he may have occasion to

New Orleans stage-the stage upon which he made
his debut and upon which he has achieved his present
popularity In view Of all these things we hope to
see the St. Charles properly filled tonight that is
crowded and crammed in every part.

ouCcESs POLITICALLY NO CRITERION
OF MERIT IN CALIFoRNIA.-It would
appear, from the results of our annual
elections for public officers, as if Califor-
MIA were an anomaly and exception in the
sisterhood of States. In most of the
States of the confederacy, men of charac-
ter and of decided merit are generally
elevated to official positions; in Califor-
MIA such an event is an exception to the
general rule One who would argue that
our public men are fair specimens of the
talent and character of the State, would
display lamentable ignorance of our
population and our history in political
point of view Blessed with delightful
climate and matchless resources, the ave-
nues to comfort and wealth in California
are of easy access to the enterprising and
industrious, who avail themselves of the
opportunities offered them, troubling
themselves but little about political af-
fairs. This has so far left a clear field
for operation to scheming, cunning, de-
signing men and pot-house loafers, of in
ferior intellect and intelligence, but of
abundant resources in the tricks of party
warfare and political wire-pulling. 1t
would seem as if every State of the Union
had sent its quota to swell the ranks of
this class. They will not work, but they
must consume, and they contrivc to do it
at others expense. They manage our
politics, have taken possession of our pub
lie affairs, and cannot be ousted. Let a
respectable, Industrious, honorable and
intelligent citizen be run for office against
one of them, and he stands no show
The loafng, lazy, scheming politician is
the man for the voters of California, or at
least so the result of our elections indi-
cate.
Let no stranger to our history and the
true character of our people seek in our
halls of legislation for the talent and ed
ucated intellect of the State. With rare
exceptions they are not to be found
there. But if he be in search of strange
and humiliating sights, let him visit
those halls while the Legislature is in
session. and view the assembled muggin-
ses of the State
Fitness, capacity, learning, integrity,
position in society, are not taken into ac-
count on election day in California party
rules us, and dcspotically thrusts aside
men who have an interest and stake in
the prosperity of the land, for any igno-
ramus, without property or reputation, so

1t is not as it used to be.
When you and were young;
When round each elm and maple tree
The honeysucklcs clung
But still love the cottage where
Ipasscd my early years,
Though not a single face is there
That memory endcars.
1t is not as it used to bel
The moss is on the roof,
And from their nests beneath the caves
The swallows keep aloof.
The robbins-how they used to sing
When you and were young
And how did fit the wild bees wing
The opening flowers among
1t is not as it used to be!
The voices loved of yore,
And the forms we were wont to see,
We see and hear no more.
No more! Alas, we look in vain,
For those to whom we clung,
And loved as we can love but once
When you and were young.

STEAMBOAT OPPosITIoN.-"We are
advised upon authority" says the Ma-

in this State, this fall, are so complicated
that there is no probability whatever of
the renewal of the contract existing du-
ring the last year, between the California
Steam Navigation Company and the Citi-
zens' Company. The two companies are
thoroughly repairing their boats, prepar-
atory to fierce opposition; and we con-
gratulate our citizens upon the prospect
of reduction of freights to this city to
opposition rates. We understand, also,
that, independent of the Citizens Com

One OF TIE SAN Francisco BOYS.-
A lad of our city, says the Bulletin,
about twelve years of age, son of one of
our wealthiest and most influential mer-
chants, was started off to school bright
and early on Monday morning last, but
somehow or other did not get there. He
did not return at noon, nor yet at even

the family became alarmed Night came
and passed, and the next day wore on.
but still the child was not to be seen or
heard of. Search had been made and
was continued, but none of his compan-
ions could tell anything about the lost
and missing one. Had he been about
the wharves? had he gone on the Bay?
was he living? was he dead ?-none could
say. The anxious parent, after travelling
about in every direction in great and
harrasslng uncertainty, at last approached
a lot of workmen engaged in making
excavations and carting the dirt away
from one of the sand hills. As one of
the carts came along, the merchant per-
ceived his precocious son, fair specimen
of Young America, sitting on loaded
cart with whip in his hand, and crying
out with gusto, Ghcc, whoa, haw Scat
Dobbin Out of the road, you man

while the young Jehu drove on, dumped

An explanation took place, and our mer
camille friend found that his son had hired
himself out bona .tide at a certain price
per diem,a and was faithfully performing
his contract, having occupied the bed of
a laborer over night. 1t seemed to be
pity to disturb this plan of hard work;
but the lad finding papa inexorable, cool
ly pocketed his wages and was led away.

Some years since young lady re-
markable for her good sense, daughter
of a distinguished lawyer and a mem
Der of Congress from Worcester County,
was placed at young ladies' boarding
school in the neighborhood of Boston.
Her unaffected manner and sprightliness
won the affections of many of the young
ladies, who were full of their kind Of
fees until one day they inquired the oo-
cupation of their fathers. Our young
friend perceivipg the drift of their in
quiries, gave them to understand that
her father was shoemaker, when many
of them were struck with horror at her
vulgar origin, and change took place
in their conduct toward0 her. She,
however, though fully understanding
them remained quiet.
After q while, the father of the
young lady visited the school. AS he
was good looking man and as they OBJ
served the principal and others treating
him with such great Difference and re-
spect the scholars were led to inquire of
their instructress who he was and what
was his business, and on being told he
was the father of Miss H., and thai he
was member of Congress, they were
filed with amazement, and Immediately
made an attempt to renew their atten-
tions as formerly, but it was too late
She regarded them with such contempt
that they were obliged to keep respect
