An EMBRYO State.

Late aiyices from the Pacific shore represent
that the people Of Lower California have voted. by
a large majority, in favor of the organization OF
new Territory in that region, to be constituted out
of a portion Of the territory of Caiifornia-and
that a memorial praying for the necessary action
on the part Of Congress- TO this end, will DO pro-
scented to that body on it's assemblage in Decom-
Der
We trust that Congress will do no such foolish
thing the organizing Of n new Territory on tho
Pacific coast. Tho whole scheme is one Of plum
der and pillage. Ever since California was orga-
Missed she has been o constant drain upon the Uni
ted States Treasury, to the extent Of millions Of
dollars annually. A Senator said, sevcrnl years
ago, that California was like u baby-always cry
ing r,r more, and with an Unsuitable appetite.
The State 10 overrun now with Federal Office hold
ers, Of every hue and description, and yet hcre
comes a proposition to increase the number oil
leeches that prey upon our life-blood. Congress
seems to have come 10 the conclusion, already
that California has "cost more than it has come
to"--and We are much of the same opinion. To
create n new Territory, and new swarm OF office
holders ON the Pacific coast, il nm act OF folly OF
which we hardly think tho next Congress will be
guilty.
We have no feeling of enmity to California, but
we really think it j, 'imo to stop the munlfeen,
larses.es to that @tac, which arc made Mt the OK
pensc Of tho remainder Of the Union. Spoiled
child in the beginning, she cannot expect tho Go
vernment to continue its petting. that she has
attained to n vigorous maturity. Let our represen-
tati,es in Congress watch closely this California
scheme, and the Oregon war debt scheme. aud all
the other propositions of pilngc which emanate
from the Pacific coast

ORIGIN OF "APRIL Fool. IF credit
may be reposed in the "Public Advertiser"
for April 18th, 1869, the wrinkle" sprung
from Hebrew root. ''It is said to have
hegun," says the print in question, from
the mistake of Noah sending the dove out
Of the Ark before the water had abated,
on the first day of the month, among the
Hebrews, which answers to our lst of
April. To perpetuate the memory of this
deliverance, it was thought proper, whoever
forgot so remarkable a circumstance, to
punish them by sending them upon some
sleev eless errand. similar to that Intellectual
messsg e upon which the bird was sent by
the Patriarch"

Pompey in the Vale of Tempe.



Mid Thessaly's towering mountains,
The vale of Tempe, In beauty. lay;
Nature from her hidden store,
Did here her brightest scene display.
Vernal foliage, decked the trees;
Grandeur crowned each mountain side
One rippling stream, along the vale,
Gently bore ITS crystal tide.
Csnopied by clear blue sky
Through which the suns glad rays shown
bright,
The scene presented all Of nature, .
That could the weary mind delight.
Yet, one is there, whose wandering eye,
Gen this bright scene cannot arrest,
For other thoughts are rushing now,
Like rolling waves across his breast.
Pompey the great Whose lofty brow,
Rome's proudest laursls wined,
Cannot in nature's 8 beauties
A thrill Of pleasure find,
Cesar, his RIVAL, this day has torn
Those laureis from his brow,
And from Pharsali rs bloody field,
Pompey fees lor refuge now.
In the vale oil Tempe he pauses
Awhile his needed rest to find
But sh no earthly scene will ever
Calm the vanquished warriors mind,
Behold him, who but yester eve,
Could claim the high est seat in Rome,
Now wanders forth, a conquered one,
And shares not cen the humbest home. -
He'd quench his thirst no servant stands,
Offering no,o the golden cup;
But low beside the stream he bends,
And there the wanted beverage sups.-
II while he's bending there.
lie heeds the murmuring of the stream,
Does it not, Of fallen greatness,
To him, low sad requiem seem
At length he quits the vale and flies
For aid to Egypts distant shore,
Ptolemy treacherOus welcome gives,
And great PompeY's heart beats no more.
