CONTEMPTIBTE PROsCRrTION.The New York
Commercial Adcatissr, in speaking Of the determ-
ination Of the President to remove every man
from Office who will not support Breckenridge
and oppose Donglas both OF whom are of the
same party with The President and assisted in his
election, says
1t is a contemplate prescription 1t is a most
tyranncal use and gross abuse Of the Office to
which Buchanan was elevated by his fellow-citi-
zens Anything more proscrptive in spirit has
never daikened the history of despot or mon
arch or people. BY it the President assumes
not merely to give prominence to his party by
the political use of his patronage, but to insist
upon perfect unanimity of opinion and Of per-
sonal preferences among his own political party
on the peril of being deprived of their means of
livelihood, so far as he can deprive them thereof.
He imperiously and relenilessly says to every
Democrat who provides living for his family
by serving the Government You must take
that Interpretation upon all the doctrines of the
Democratic party that | put upon them you
must prefer the man for the Presidency that
prefer; you must, in fact, think just as
think and love and hate as | love and hate, or
you must make way for one who will. | care
not how faithfully you have served our joint
sovereign, the people or how large the family
dependent upon the pay you reoeive yon must
adopt my opinions my likes and dislikes of
individuals or you must give up your office

THEY CANNOT Stay AwAY.-The number of
Caliiornians who voluntarily return from the
Eastern States after accomplishing the long cher
ished anticipation of "going home," is worthy
of remark. Letters written by others who have
settled down by their old hearth-stones, show an
illconcealed yearning after their former pioneer
home, or open dissatisfaction with their present
location. No matter how deep their home affec-
lions, or how great the privation or bad fortune
encountered here no matter how pleasant the
greeting OF old friends or the enchantment of old
scenes the Californian's heart still yearns tow
ards his western home. An exchange paper re-
marks that the Californian in the East misses the
equable serenity of the half.year summers, the
clear. exhilerating atmosphere and the grateful
yield of a spontaneous soil. Pnched by frosts
in his Atlantic retirement, he looks back long.
ingly TO the warm rains that mark the winter of
his old Pacific home restless and perspirng
through the sutry summer night in his eastern
dwelling, his fancy follows the setting sun to the
cool, starlit nights of California Stockton Dem.

LINCOLN AMONG THE CHLDREY-T following
circumstance is related by teacher in the Five
Points House of Industry, New York
"Our Sunday School in the Five Points was
assembled one Sabbath morning, few months
since, when noticed a tall and remarkable look
ing man enter the room and take "a seat among
us. He listened with fixed attention to our exer-
ciscs, and his countenance manifested such genu.
inc interest that approached him and suggested
that he might be willing to say something to the
children. He accepted the invitation with eyi-
dent pleasure, and coming forward, began a
simple address, which at once fascinated every
little hearer, and hushed the room into silence.
His language was strikingly beautiful, and his
tones musical with intensest feeling. The little
faces around would drop into sad conviction as
he uttered sentences of warning, and would
brighten into sunshine as he spoke cheerful words
of promise Once or twice he attempted to close
his remarks, but the imperative shout of Go
on 'Ob, do go onr would compel him to
resume. AS | looked upon the gaunt and sinewv
frame of be stranger, and marked his powerful
head aud determined features, now touched into
softness by the impressions of the moment, felt
an irrepressible curiosity to learn something
more about him, and when be was quietly leaving
the room, begged to know his name. He cour.
teousy replied, 1t is Abra'm Lincoln, from

WELL SATD.-In every considerable village of
this State, lodges of Masons and Odd Fellows
are observed, and their salutary effect on society
is everywhere apparent. In their public cere-
monies institutions of the Christian religion are
reverently observed they encourage no scandal
GUS immortality. they aim to admit none but citi-
zens of good repute, and the very outer walls of
their lodges convey admonition to the beholder
that the good and pure are within. The best
citizens of the community are accustomed to
meet there, and if now and then an unworthy
member is remarked 10y the world, he is known
to be an exception to the general repute of the
others. This great company of men, warmed in
heart by frequent conference and works OF be-
nevolence, going out separately to the world,
must necessarily exercise prodigious influence
in socety-more, we think, than the Church,
ITSELF whose representatives. separated by pro
fesson from the irreigious, less accessible as
eXemplars. And when the moralist cOntemplates
with gratitude and joy the notable reformation
in society, let him not forget the silent but potent
influences of " Friendship, Love and Truth"
Faith, Hope and Charity. y."-E0ening Mirror

TRINITY JOURNAL,
Just Our Sentiments.

From that most interesting of all the San Fran
cisco daily papers-the EUening N'rror-we quote
the annexed article, and give in our full and
hearty endorsement. The treatment bestowed
upon the rough but gallant old war horse,
Harney, at the instance Of the British Govern
ment is disgrace TO the Administration, to
Mr.. Buchanan, to Gen. Scott and to the Ameri-
can people Here is the .Mrror's article;
The Pony Express brought the unweicome In
telligence that Gen. Harvey had reported him
self TO the Secretary Of War, and been relieved
of his command of the Northern Department II
was further stated that he would probably be
court-martialed for the responsibility he assumed
in taking possession of the Island Of San Juan
Our right to the disputed territory, although
still made the subject Of diplomatic treatment,
is conceded by every honest statesman in Great
Britain yet, In Difference to English vanity ana
bluster, our Government meanly sacrlilces the
hard earned laurels of one OF Its most lalthful
servants, and condemns him TO the humlliatlon
OF q eourt-martal for an act which II secretly
approves It. Gen. Winfield Scott is great
man-probably the most competent military
leader of either hemisphere. The nation is proud
of his fame-proud to have such man at the
head of its armies yet the glory of position and
the prestipe of great deeds do not give him the
right to tamper with the reputation OF soldier
scarcely less than peer to him In every military
qualification, and by no means bis inferior as
man. Gen. SCOTS action in this matter has
been unworthy of him, and ii is the duty OF those
who so view it to tell him SO. Under the hypo-
critical plea that his advice was required by the
War Department, Gen, Harvey was called TO
Washington TO be insulted, relieved Of his com
mand aud court martialed. Such conduct is dis
graceful and can receive nothing but condemna-
ton from every right thinking man whose pre-
iudices do not blind him to the feelings Of justice
and magnanimity. Gen. Harney-the old war
horse of The North-has grown grey in his coun-
try's service, and has stood faithful sentinel on
its frontiers until the savages have learned TO
tremble at the mention Of his name. Tell us not
that republics are ungrateful The old veteran
has been rewarded at last. His forty years of
camplife and privation have received the recog
milton of Government, and he is to be disgraced
at the request of England and 1t. Gen Winfield
Scott for doing what he esteemed to be one of
the plainest duties of his life.

EASTERN IrEMs.-At late book trade-sae in
Boston. $l25,OOO worth were disposed Of :.
"LoNG JOIN" WENTWORTH, the Chicago mayor,
had gone all the way to Montreal to get on his
knees to young royalty-the Prince of Wales
.... WARD BEEcHER, the great preacher, is pos
sessed of nice discrimination as to what Consti-
tuteg honor. The degree of d. d. was lately
conferred on him at Amherst College, but he
declined. If it had been an additional $4,000 to
his salary, or a mission to Kansas it would have
been otherwise THE Chicago Zouaves made
paying thing of their late trip to New York.
They realized $1,000 above expenses =. THREE
of the Douglas electors of Alabama have lately
declared for Breckenridge. . Thus far, this year,
$3.50 emigrants from foreign ports have arrived
in New York. .PApAL tribute to the amount of
S5l 900 had been collected in New York up to
August 20th . .. j. r. BARTLETT, late NJ. C. from
st. Louis, has declared for Douglas. Hon.
BILLY SMITH and Senator Mason are stumping
Virginia for Breckenridge. Hunter is canvassing
the same State for Douglas. THE n. Y. Heydld
is twisting again-Bel and Everett dropped, and
Douglas taken up... QUITE number OF Lincoln
poles have been peaeably raised in Mary land
THE Prince Of Wales is 10 visit New York Octo-
ber llth, and will be houored by grand ball
and torchlight procession. The Spanish war
vessels at Vera Cruz have threatened to lombard
the city unless ample indemnity is made for the
seizure Of the vessels which sailed from Havana
last winter, bearing renforcements and arma-
ments TO Miramon and captured by our naval
force. The Juarez Government argue that it
was justified under the rule OF international law
in declaring the two steamers pirates. -. The
Gulf squadron, in anticipation of trouble, has
been increased to twelve vessels and 2l9 guns
the Susquehanna is ordered there. -. The N. Y.
Herald states that coalition is now progressing
between all the elements of opposition to Lincoln
for the Presidency, and that in few weeks it
will be publicly announced. The Herald is shock
ing bad authority, in our way of thinking. Com
ing from any other source, we should not hesitate
to believe that there might be such coalition
consummated.
