Second Industrial Exhibition.

The Executive Committee of the Mechanics
Institute have announced the Second In
dustrial Exhibition to take place in this city
at the Pavilion, on the 1st of September
next, and continue not less than fifteen days.
From the success attendant on the first en-
terprise, ard the general satisfaction given
on every hand, we doubt not that the Second
Exhibition will be even more creditable, and
far more attractive and interesting in its
character. The managers solicit contribu-
tions from every department of Industry,
embracing works of art, new inventions,
specimens of ingenuity and skill, products
of the quarry, mine, orchard, field, and
whatever else nature or art can contribute or
ingenuity devise BY giving this timely
notice, persons at a distance on our coast
will have ample time and opportunity to
send their articles on in time to secure good
and appropriate places in the Pavilion. The
State Horticultural Society will hold its
Second Annual Exhibition in connection
with the Institute. We see it stated that
the California Steam Navigation Company
and the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
have again rendered to transport articles in
tended for exhibition at the Fair free of
charge. Tlreman's Journal.

Decline of the Anti.Slavery Sentiment

1t is very evident from numerous indica-
ton which meet the eye that very decided
decline in the anti slavery sentiment is TAX
ing place throughout the northern States
The National Era, an anti-slavery journal
published at the federal capital not long since
confessed that its circulation had fallen off
one half of late 1t is we'll konwn at our
Post office that the anti slavery organ of
our country parts, the Weekly Tribune, has
lost quite large share of its subscription
list. This is also manifest from the piteous
appeal which it makes to its friends to come
to its aid and advertise IN its columns at half
price. No journal doing good business or
with an increasing circulation would show
evidence of such weakness in the knees as
this Herald.

The Washington correspondent of the
S. F, Globe says:
The placid Pacific is not more quiet under
zephyr breeze than is the country Just
now, since the everlasting Kansas fight is
out of Congress- All hands, even the Re-
publcans, seem to have forgotten that their
voices were so loud against the Presidents
wise policy. The Bill has been signed and
dispatched to Gov. Denver, with instruc-
tons designed to secure fair vote on the
proposition to be submitted to the people,
and there is every indication that Kansas
will accept the "English Biu," and thus be
in position to manage their own affairs
apart from the malicious interference of de-
signing knaves and wirepulling politicians
who aspire to greatness at the sacrifice of
peace and the perpetuity of our glorious
Union.
The Placer herald., 1858-06-19
Parties.

Some time since, we undertook to show
that there had been, since the days of the
elder Adams, hut one party in the country
based upon principles; that the Demcc, attic
party had stood firm to her doctrines and
policy, keeping the same name and advocat-
ing the same principles, whilst all the par
ties which had been opposed to it had van
ished and gone into political oblivion. We
said that although it stood then without any
organized party to oppose it, yet it would
have opposition; that the same spirit of OPP
position which had always existed in the
country against the National Democracy and
the peace and quiet Of the Union, would as
soon as the proper leader could be settled
upon, array itself against us. Our predic-
ton is now proven to be true. Mr.. Douglas,
the great founder and advocate of the cor
ner-stone of Democracy-he who, by his
toweringintelect his powerful reasoning and
his eloquent advocacy, forced the country
to acknowledge the great principles of popu.
lar sovereignty, advocated and contended for
by the Democracy, would not suit their
cause-he would not desert the Democracy
and oppose the Administration because he
and the President happened to differ upon
mere question Of policy. Mr.. Seward did
not suit them, because he had the indepen-
dence and manlness to cut himself loose
from the Republican party. Mr.. Hale would
not exactly suit them, either, because he was
little too strongly tinctured with abolition
ism. Ned Stanley would not answer, be-
cause he had not yet disposed of all of his
negroes. Fortunately, California came to
their relief and her "brave young Senator"
Mr.. David G. Broderick, was just the man
suited to their purpose. He "would not en-
ter the White House while Mr. Buchanan
occupied it." He "would cut the ears off
every Southern negro driver in the country"
He was opposed to the Nebraska-Kansas
bill; was opposed to the repeal of the Mis-
souri, Compromise; was in favor of every
thing in the North and opposed to every
thing in the South-just the man for the
times. Now, forsooth, we find "our Senator"
whom the Democracy sent to the United
States Senate, the acknowledged leader and
boasted champion of the Black Republican
party This great leader will soon be in our
State, for the purpose Of drilling his forces
and appointing recruiting officers for the
purpose of increasing his army. He and his
'rule or ruin" followers will seek to enter
our State Convention and claim companion
ship with the Democracy. But, if we mis-
take not, they will be shown the door very
promptly and politely invited to leave. We
can sit in convention with a Democrat
who goes with Mr. Douglas on the simple
question of difference that exists between
him and the President. But when we are
asked to recognize as Democrat man who
agrees with Mr.. Broderick in denouncing
the whole Administration and the very foun-
daton stoue of our party, we must beg to
| be excused. Sacramento Mercury.

The Nobleness of Labor.

There's nobleness in labor;
There's beauty in the deed;
For without its reeking glory,
Idle lords would stand in need!
'Tis the coiner of the splendor
That adorns our happy land;
Though the titled fear to mingle
Where the sons of labor stand.
In its mighty grasp the Kingdoms
Of the earth are made to CLEAN,
Like the rivers in the brightness
Of the mornings blushing beam!
From its action springs the blessings
And the comforts that We feel,
AS from out the roaring furnace
Comes the hot and burning steel.
We may lose our hue of whiteness
In its turmoil and its sweat
But no greater men than workers
In nation ever met
There's grandeur in its spirit,
For its might is never broke,
There's music in its wrestle,
And a braveness in it's stroke.
In the world its course is righteous,
In the honest heart it dwells;
Speaks the history of beauty
Clear and full as rising bells!
And its arm is never weary,
And its hope is never dead;
Though the idle pluck the blossoms
Round its ruddy glances shed.
Though its sons may lack the polish
And the grace that idles boast;
Yet it gives to life fitness
That arrays and crowns it most!
For love the son of labor,
And will aid him all | can;
Though unskilled in art and fashion,
He's monarch and q man.
