uNTRUE.-Ths Beacon says the Courier is stem-
blttered against the Democracy"-that the
Courier wakes sore against the test recommend
ed by the State Central Committee Both OF
these assertions are purely untrue. We will say,
however, that if a similar test had been applied
IN 1857, some of the leading politicians and Of
nee holders of Tehama county,-all good and
worthy Democrats at present, we admit-would
at that time have been excluded from the DEM
ocratic primary meetings In the State Conyen-
tion, two years ago. we voted against permitting
any one to hold seat therein who had not yo.
ted for Mr.. Buchanan the election previous. A
resolution to that effect, after being unanimous
ly adopted by the Committee on Resolutions
was voted down in Convention, by large ma
Jority. The reason therefor was, that it would
exclude about fifty Know Nothings who the
year previous, had voted for Fillmore-but who
were there as Weller delegates The rule was
then adopted, in effect, that a man might be in
deh membership in the party without having, al
the election previous, supported the Democratic
nominees. If that rule was right then, is it rot
right now? Why should the rule be changed
even If the Central Committee possess the power
to make the change, which we deEy-that pow

ILLIBEnAL.-The Republicans of the Massa
chusetts Legislature do not like foreign -borr
citizens. Recently thoy adopted an amendmen
to the State Constitution requiring two year,
residence in that State, after naturaiizatio1s be
fore voting Every Democrat in the Legisla
tate voted against the unjust ameadment-
every Republican voted fer it. Under the law
of Congress, foreigner is admitted to citizen.
ship after five years residence Thus it seem:
the Republicans Of Massachusetts believe man
of foreign birth, even though he be citizen Of
the United States, is not worthy to exercise the
right of voting in that Commonwealth, until two
years after he has become such citizen of the
United States a very large majority of the
German-born voters of Massachusetts, have here
tOfore acted with the Republican party. Nc
wonder they have determined, in mass meeting:
assembled, to withdraw from that organization
and hereafter support the only party that has
extended hearty welcome to the foreign born
Citizen.

VALUABLE OFFIcE.-The yearly profits of
the Office of Clerk of the Supreme Court have
been estimated to amount to from So 900 all the
way up to $4,000 An iIeffeetual effort was
made few days ago in the Legislature TO re-
duce the fees of this Office. A majority of the
members our Assemblyman, Mr. Street, among
the ndmber-opposed the bill upon the strength
of a report of a subcommittee of the Committee
of Ways and Means, which reported that the
nett profits of the office were only some seven or
eight thousand dollars per year. Even that
would make it the best paying State office in the
State 1t is said that the average of cases
amounts to 500 per year. Each ltigant, en-
filing his case, has to pay $50. From this
source alone, therefore, the Clerk would derive
$4,000. The average number of foiios in a
brief, says the Bee, is 100. The Clerk gets 80
cents folio or $50 for one copy. He is required
40 make three copies-one for each of the Judges
lie therefore gets 800 per brief-or S45 900 for
the 500 cases. This copying is let out at 10
cents folio-leaving the Clerk clear profit of
$4,000 for the copying Of briefs. This, with
the $4,000 received by him for the filing of
cases, makes the very handsome sum of Sf5,-
ooo If all this be so, which we doubt, the
Legislature should at once reduce the fees or
make IT a salaried ofiice-and let all save a fair
salary go into the State Treasury.

RAILROAD PRoGREss.-Thirty years ago there
was but one railroad in the United States, and
that was only three miles long, and had no To-
comotiye. It was the Quincy road, used for
conveying granite from Quincy to Boston, and
hardly deserved the name of railroad. Now We
have 2s,238 miles of completed road, over which
the iron horse is daily and nightly laundering
with the speed of the storm. We have mile of
railroad for every thousand people in the Union,
and have made nearly one thousand miles every
year from the time that we begun, thirty years
ago.

Bk5~ Lord Dundonald's Naval Narrative con-

of his little boy:
When the firing commenced, had placed
the boy in my after-cabin, locking the door up
on him but not liking the restrictions, he con-
triyed to get through the quarter galley window,
and Joined me on the deck, refusing to go down
again. As could not attend to him, he was
permitted to remain, and, in miniature mid
shipman's uniform, which the seaman had
made for him, was busying himself in handing
powder to the gunners. Whilst thus employed,
q round shot took Off the head of marine close
to him, scattering the unlucky mans brains in
his face. Instantly recovering his self-posses-
sion, to my great relief, for believing him killed
was spell-bound with agony, ho ran up to me,
exclaiming: a. am not hurt, papa the shot did
not touch me; Jack says the ball is not made
that can kill mammals boy" | ordered him to
be carried below; but, resisting with all his
might, he was permitted to remain on deck
during the action.
