CoNxopoRE VASpSRHIIr AND THE Pacific MAI.
SrRvrcx-we publish in another column COM
municaiion from Commodore Vanderbilt, cy-
planning the whole difficulty between him and
the government relative to the California
mail service, by which 1t will be seen that the
whole blame lies with the House of Represen-
tatives.
Several Of the journals Of the city are COM
mep,irg severely upon Commodore Vanderbilt
for refusing TO take the mails TO California, aud
one Of them in particular is very violent in its
language, charging the Commodore with all
sorts Of evil things; denominating him "a specu-
lator on the necessities Of his kind" monopo-
list, shylock, and pronouncing him guilty of
systematic and deliberate sel6shness and Of
conduct "too shameless even for modern tole-
ration
We do not know whether all this Is true Of
Mr. Vanderbilt or not II Il certainly very
harsh language. II IL true that he did leave be-
hind the letters and newspapers for the Pacific,
because our government-the imbecilc and the
incompetent, the official and the legislative
would not pay him his price for transporting
them, which IL. no doubt, great Inconvenience.
and very much to be regretted. Whether he is
deserving Of all this abuse for asserting bis le-
gal and constitutional right to carry the mails
on his own terms or not at ALL in the absence Of
any contract, or whether the blame does not
lie equally with The government, is another
question.
Not long ago the splendid and patriotic efforts

HENCE THESE TEARs-Now that the Japan
ese have taken themselves of, the Philadel-
phia journals are grooming terribly because
some sharp fellows in the metropolis made
few dollars by the Embassy. The fact is. the
Philadelphians are angry because they behaved
so badly TO the japanese that the latter would
not buy anything in the Quaker City; so they
rail at our shopkeepers and others among
whom the money was spent. The Philadel-
pbians are like the bad boy who was sent to bed
without his supper, and they are crying as
if their little hearts would break.

in this State between The factions Of the repnh-
lcan party. II is known that MIR. Seward wrote
a long reply to Greeley's letter of 1854. Mr..
Seward expressed the greatest regard for Gree
ley, but could not control Weed. Greeley, with
his paper and his personal efforts, has done
more than any other man to build up the re-
publican party; and Weed. Raymond and
Webb, by introducing the lobby system into the
party, and perpetuating all sorts of official cor
ruption ut Albany and Washington, have done
the organization serious injury, and helped to
kill of Seward at Chicago. All the rascality
and corruption at Albany last winter was
charged at Chicago directly to the Weed
clique. and it was urged that, should
Seward be elected, Weed would rule IN
the kitchen, and give all the fat to his
friends Maynard. Webb 4 Co. These things
are well understood by the more honest of the
republicans in this State, who desire to run
Greeley for Governor, in order that he may be
set right by direct appeal to the people.
Weed wants Morgan-a fairish Governor
enough enominated; but it is quite probable
that Seward will favor the idea of running
Greeley. This is sort of family quarrel, and
we have not quite decided which side to take
in It, If we had taste for the feshpots of
Egypt, we might incline to Weed; but as we
do not care for such things, and as Greeley is
the fairer man of the two, we feel disposed to
cotton to him. We will wait while and see
how the thing comes out.

A book inscribed with the schoolgirls nnmei
A tear-one tear--fell hot on the cover
She quickly closed when her husband came
He came, and he went await was nothing
with cold, calm words upon either sides
But, just as the sound Of the room door shutting,
dreadful door in her soul stood wide.
Love, she had read Of it in sweet romances-
Love that could sorrow, but never fail,
Built her own palace Of noble iances,
All the wide world fairy tale.
Bleak and bitter, and utterly doleful,
Spreads to the woman her map of life
Hour after hour she looks in her soul, full
OF deep dismay and turbulent strife.
Face in both hands, she knelt on the carpet;
The black cloud looscn'd, the storm rain fell
Oh! life has SO much to withcr and warp it
One poor hearts day, what poet can tell?

Sullied and torn,
Dove of the distant trees,
Where vast thou born?
Who, when the autumn breeze
Rilted thy nest,
Drove thee, with sighs like these,
Straight to my breast?
Spread not thy wings for inc,
White-plumaged dove;
Whittier should sorrow flee,
Graded by love?
Wet though thy pinions be,
Fair thine eyes shine,
Tears, if they fell on thee,
