AFTER months Of political furore, gotten up
by the partisans of every political faith, the State
has quietly settled down to the realities Of life
A stranger would look with astonishmcnt at the
political anomaly presented by our government
in the facility with which the people can relapse
from high state Of excitement to a purely qui-
escent existence. We have just passed the most
exciting election that the people Of California
have ever participated in. and the result, though
contrary to the hopes Of many, must meet the
concurrence and support Of all. Partly owing to
the organization and superior tactics of the Dem
ocraic party, and partly to the infdelity Of the
opposition, the administration wing has carried
the State by very large majority securing
thereby the majority in both branches of the
State Legislature, both Members of Congress-
and most Of the minor Offices The issues brought
before the people, and which were discussed to
the almost total exclusion Of local measures,
have been emphaticaly decided, and Ant-Le.

SENATOR ELECT OF TIE TwENTY-FIRsT Dis
TRIcr.-Jamcs 7. Ryan, of Humboldt county, is
elected by a majority of about IS votes over Mr.
Gallagher, the Democratic nominee, and about
40 votes over H. j. Howe, the nominee of the
AutLccompton party. Mr.. Ryan was taken up
ly the Democratic party Of Humboldt county,
they claiming the right TO have the Senator taken
from tina. county at this time. We do not think
Mr.. Ryau's success can be attributed SO much to
the claim Humboldt county bad, as to the per-
sonal popularity Of the man they put before the
voters Of the District. Without speaking in he
least disparagingly Of the two andidates from
Trinity, we think Mr.. Ryan equal to any man in
the District in point of ability to represent Us in
the Senate OF this State, and that all should feel
proud in having secured the services of SO able
and efficient a representative.

The Execution Of Brown.


CHAKLE>rowN, Dec. Brown was taken
to the scaffuld in furniture wagon, at about
eleven o'clock 10 day. He spoke freely Ia
the soldiers around him. aud was then hang
ed. His body remained suspended about 50
minues.
The body will be sent to Harper's Ferry
at four O'Clock.
He died apparently very easy.
\ private dispatch says that there was no
unusual excitement.
The correspondent Of the W ashington Star,
in letter dated at O'clock, Thursday night,
says:
The interview of Old Brown with his wife
has only Just closed, aud she goes back To-
night 10 lIurpers Ferry, IN charge oi
Capt Moore. Of the Richmond Muntgom-
cry Guards, the same officer who brought
her up from lIarper's Ferry this after
noon. Capt. Moore says that Oh the
way up from llarper's Ferry she CONVEX
sed with perfect composure, showing either
remarkable indifference or remarkable self
possession On meeting her husband, the
twain embraced, but said not word Or
exhibited any feeling whatever.
Gen. Taliaferro inquired Of Brown how
long he would like the interview TO last.
Brown answered, Three or four hours. "
Gen. L. intimatel that the interview must
be short.
oh" said Brown, c""lly, Il don't ask
any favor Of the State Of Virginia. You
must execute Your duty"
A check drawn by Phlladelphian III IN
vor of Browns wife to the amount Of 500,
was handed to Brown to be endorsed. which
he proceeded to do with firm hand.
Prior to Introducing Mrs. Brown to the
cell OF her husband, her person was searched
by the wife nl Jailor Avis, u see that ~ poi
son or weapon was concealed about her to be
conveyed Ia Brown to enable him to commit
suicide. Nothing, however, WAS found.
The representatives ct the Press here, drew
up a request this afternoon to Gen. Talialerro.
to be admitted within the military lines to-
morrow t. witness the execution. Tins WAS
submitted by telegraph to Gov Wise. and
peremptorily refused.

lCoMNUSlCATED

1t is respectfully sugge sted, that, at the
present time, it would contribute much
to the order aud quiet of the town, if all
military drills should take place at the ar
mory-that night parddes should be avoid,
ed-and that persons who are furnished
with guns aud pistols should not discharge
them in the public streets. This suggestion
is made. BY the friends OF the Home Guard,
and all ether associations Of citizens for de-
fsnce, and Ly those who really desire pedcea-
Die homes, and think that the present plan is
not likely to secure that. MANY CITIZENS.
