COMPTON STATE OrfTCERs.--Wc have published
the remonstrance Of the State officers elected
on the 9TH instant in Kansa. by the free State
party, against the admission VI Kansas under
the Lecompton contitution. II is, however, g
very curious remonstrance. under che circum-
stances. These men first assume 10 themselves
the official importance and dignity to which
they have been promoted under he Lccompton
programme. and then coolly proceed 10 show
that the whole thing has been nothing but a
string of infamous frauds, ballot stunng, and
false pretences. from the beginning to the end.
This Is about the coolest specimen OF stultifca-
ton that We have heard of for some time. II
these men have been elected under false and
infamous constitutional schedule. their election
a. State officers is part and parcel of the nfamy
Yet We have no doubt that with the admission
of Kansas under her Lecompton constitution,
every man Of these anti.Lecompton State Off
GERS Will insist upon the legality Of his claims
TO his Office. Yet such are the inconsistencies
and qualifications Of all these Kansas freedom
shriekers, from Walker and Douglas down.
Doubtless this aforesaid remonsirance will be
properly interpreted in Congress. There must
be no fighting under false co'ors upon this Kan

withsandng the Dreadful fuss and fury which
have characterized the contest of the Southern
fre-eaters for Southern rights and Southern
equality. during the last ten years there is, we
must say, at this particular crisis remarkable
exhibition Of indifference among Southern poll
ticians in reference to the allimportant South
ern issue Of the Lecompton constitution. In
anticipation Of the admission Of California az
free State the whole rank and file Of the South
ern uitras were up in arms: but now in view
of the possible rejection Of the Lecompton con-
sttution we hear Of no decisive voice from a
single Southern State. excepting Alabama. Her
Legislature. however, has passed a series of re-
solutions fatty in favor of disunion should the
Lecompton constitution be rejected by Congress
This alternative Of secession may be hard to
swallow in this case, but it isHerfcctly con-
sistent with the teachings and preachngs of
Southern orators and Southern organs upon
Kansas for the last ten months. Perhaps the
other cotton States" are awaiting the move
ments Of the waters among their representatives
at Washington; but in the meantime the
lukewarmness of the Southern democratic
newspaper press affords anything but en-
couragcment to Southern members of
Congress- Here and there, outside Of Alabama,
at wide intervals apart, some Southern journal
may bc found, now and then speaking out
pretty boldly and pointedly for Lecompton; but
this is not the way in which to give the proper
aid and comfort to the Southern cause at WASH
ington. The shoulders Of the administration
are broad and strong but il especially dcvolves
upon the Southern press at this iuncturc TO come
mp TO the work Of Southern constitutional
rights

THE New YORK OFFICE BEuoARs-"DouBTE
DOUBLE Ton. AND TRouBtE."-Ofice begging in
New York is q permanent disorder, and is pro
ductive of more mischief and misery than cho-
lcra, yellow fever and smallpox combined. Our
New York Office beggars are like the horse
lecch-they are never satisfied. Give them
everything that you have and their cry il still
"Givel give!' Last year, about this time, the
Washington hotels swarmed with these office
bcggars, and they were not dispersed until the
9oils Of oar Custom House and its appcndages
were divided. The army Of the spoilsmcn con-
cerned then returned home, with q fixed deter
mination on the part Of the barnburners to
crowd Augustus Schell out of the Custom
House. At the same time the appointments of
Ryndcrs, Sanders Hart, and some others, to the
the choicest pckings of our federal patronage,
were considered very curious, and very unsatis-
factory, by most men Of all parties.
Recently the barnburners have been some
what appeased by the appointment Of Jcwctt as
United States Marshal of the Northwestern dis
trict of the State. But this has reused up all
the old wrath Of the Dickinson faction. The.

Finally, as Mr. Choate appears to have very

we beg to remind him, since he has been led
out, like Baaam, to prophesy against the tents

ended by proving their inyincibility, that it was

"How BEAUTIFUL is EARTH"

BY MRS. sIGOURNEY.
Oh Goll how beautiful is earth,
In sunlight or in shade,
ller forests with their waving arch,
Her flowers that gem the glade.
Her hiocks, white with feccy nocks,
Her fields with grain that glow,
Her sparkling rivers, deep and broad,
That through the valley flow.
Her crested waves that clash the shore,
And lift their anthem loud,
Her mountains with their solemn brows,
That WOO the yielding cloud.
o God! how beautiful is life
That thou dost lend us here,
With tinted hopes that line the cloud,
And joys that gem the tear.
With cradle hymns of mothers young,
Aud tread Of youthful feet,
That scarce, in their elastic bound,
Bow down the grass flowers sweet.
With brightness round the pilgrims staff,
Who, ut the set OF sun,
Beholds the golden gate thrown wide,
And all his work well done.
But if this earth, which changes mar,
This life, that to death leads,
Are made so beautiful by Him
From whom all good proceeds,
How glorious must that region be
Where all the pure are blessed,
From chance, and fear, and sorrow free,
Attain eternal rest

Roses wait thee to be born
Summer, come!
Come, there's glory on the lea,
Song Of insect, bird, and bee:
Earth is calling but for thee
Summer, come
Whittier wouli'st thou wing so soon?
Summer stay!
What though fled each tleeting boon,
Fled the rosy joy of June
Summer, stay!
In the light our love was cast,
Link some feeling to the Past;
Leave us not to meet the blast!
Summer, stay
She is gone-her reign was brief
Autumn shows
Fields and vale with golden sheaf,-
llurries fast the falling leaf
To its close
Whilst the shortening day afar
Cometh on its cloudy car;
And, midst elemental war,
Winter blows Charles Swain.
