1t is an easy matter for q simplcton or
knave-a simpleton who knows not the

for what he idly uttcrs, and knave who
earns his bread BY traducing men whose

others, without the slightest foundation,
Of grave offences Ynncey has come in
for full share Of the abuse Of men of this
class They have not been idle. Seeing
him soaring above them, they have tried
every means 10 reduce him to their de.
b"sing level, but unsucceSsfully. When,
where and how has Mr.. Yancey been guilty
Of treason? Point TO the place and cir.
cumstance, you who are habitnallv pra.
ting about his treason. We have read his
speeches made during the campaign, care
fully, and to our thinking they do not con-

upon an equality with whites, who omit
no opportunity to misreprcsent the insti-
tUtions Of fifteen States Of the Union and
villify Southern statesmen, the Sacramento

equality of the States, insists upon obedi-

others, and asks, nay demands, and very
justly, that the compromises Of the Con.
stitutiOn be strictly adhered to. He con-
tends for nothing that is not clearly right

THEY LOVE THE GERMANS DrARiY.-
To listen to the appeals Of Black RrPuh
lican orators before an election, one would
be led to believe that they dearly love the
Germans, that Their party has peculiar
claims on fnreiSn.born citizens for sup.
port. Col. Curtin, the Black Republican
candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania,
recently elected, expressed his love for
the Germans as follows, at late dinner,
since the election:
O." 4 Dutrhman is not like another person; he
has two skulls, and in order to get an idea ini"
his head, you must first smash one "f hls
skulls"
Notwithstanding he was known to en-.
tcrtain c0ntcmptuouS opinions Of the
Germans, many f'th,m were induced to
vote for him, believing that Gen. Foster,
the Democratic nominee, who had always
been their friend and stuck up for their
rights, was in favor of Stare code Doug
las and his minions were constantly howl
ing about a slave code, which Influenced
many good men, having confidence in the
vcracity Of Douglas, to vote against the
Democratic candidate.

gentlemen have been mentioned in con,
ncction with Spvakcr>hip Of the ASSEM-
bly,. Prominent among these is y. Gree n
Curtis of Sacramento, ore of the most
talented and accomplished gentlemen in
the State. We know Of no one better
suited to the position, and. il an outsider
may allowed to iitetlt in ltt. ittFttif<t.
the successful party, we would respect
fully recommend friend Curtis to the IA
vorablc consideration of the Fl Dorado
delegation. II, however, Mr.. CouncSs
should become candidate f,r the Speak
ership. he, of course. will receive the SUP
port Of our delegation. Wcarc uot aware
that he has any such intention at present,
but doubt not that his great services To
his party will make him formi liable al
vcrSary To all other aSpiraHis should he
desire the position. Mr.. Connc>S is an
accomplished parliamentarian and inferior
to Curtis only in suavity Of manners.
Either gentleman, as presiding officer Of
the y Assembly, would win golden opinions.

SPRING BONyETA.

The New York correspondent Of the
Charleston Mercury says:
What queer thing the spring bonnets
are! Have they reached Charleston vet :?
II not, prepare yourself to be as.onished.
The "noveI,y" is nothing but . rival of
our great great-very great moth
ers b'onet except thar it sets = little
further back On the head. Your memory
will be quicsened, perhaps. when l tell
you that the bonnet is Of the coal scu,tle
pattern, and that the bow part in from,
looms several inches above the head, aud
in shape and style is very much like the
canvass top to Jersey wa.on. The
women are vi.ing with each other in the
enormity Of these bow fronts, and they
always do, the dear creatures, in every
one Of the myriad fashionable folies
which they adopt-God bless EN-! But
they little suspect the terrestrial angels
that these b1nnets make them appear
perfectly hdsous, and that the curious
look with which the young men gree.
ihem-and which the iair enchantres.es
fondly believe 10 be one Of VI eauaIi6ed
admiration-is exchanged for n broad
grin when their fascinating backs are
turned.
