NARSHAL'SS ALE.-In virtne of = writ Of 6atl
w lacias issued from the CiaTk's Office % the Cir
Daily national Democrat., 1859-10-26
Senatorial appointment.

The rumor reached this city, yesterday
that Judge (H. P.) Haun, Of Yuba county,
had been appointed by Gov. Weller, as sue
cessor of Hon. David c. Broderiek, during
the interim between this time aud the cleo
,ion os n limited States Senator by the Leg
isIature of California Much comment was
.ucited bv the news. some approving and
others disappearing. The majority, howev-
er. were Of the opinion that, aside from the
Lecompton notions of Judge Haun. he was
as good man for the position as could have
been appointed. Judge Haun has long been
known in this community as an upright and
honorable citizep-somewhat positive in his
opinions and in the expression of them, but
nevertheless respected for the frankness and
the sincerity Of his views. He is also nc.
knowledged to be man of much more than
ordinary ability, and would fill, with credit,
the position to which he is supposed to have
been appointed.
True, we should have preferred a straight
out Douglas man for the position. but this
was an impossiOility, and, under the circum-
stances. we think that the appointment Of
Judge Haun will give general satisfaction TO
to this section of the country
We believe Judge Haun was in favor Of
the nomination of Stephen A. DOuglas for
the Presidency in 1886, and. inasmuch as Mr..
Douglas has not changed in the least since
that period, we should not he surprised to
see him sui port the Illinois statesman for
the same nomination in 1860.
However we speak without the shadow
Of authority from him, our political relations
not admitting Of it. Yet, we are firmly con-
vinced that the men who supported Douglas
in 1856 must support him in 1860, because
he is the same great conservative statesman
now that he was then.
Be this as it may, we must nevertheless
do Judge Haun the justice to say that as a
fellew citizen and a neighbor, as a man res
pected in his private relations, and as n man
respected for his abilities, we can see no OBJ
lection to his appointment as U. S. Senator
for the interim now to be filled.
p S.-We have ascertained beyond a
doubt, that Judge Haun has been appointed.
He will start for Washington on the 9th Of
next month.
