SrImTEp-Relering to the comet now visible
in the north western heavens, under the belief
that it is the great comet of Charles the Fifth,
sthe Butte Record remarks
We find it visiting the earth in 1856, attracted
by the corruptons Of the court of Charles Y, and
now, in 1850, drawn hither by old Buchanan'S
administration. Charles V appoosed the terrific
minister of eternal justice by ahdjcating throne
he had disgraced. The world was thus permitted
to move ON. But how will it be now? Buchan-
an would not resign il he was satisfied that his
dol lg so would prevent the destruction of the
world, as i theevtnt of such adisaster, Buchan.
IN woulG feel assured that Douglas could never
be President of the United States. Neither
would lis 0ppointecs resign If their doing so
would avert the terrible visitation with which
our fair earth is now threatened. Most Of the
Iccompton officers were formerly Wings and
Know Nothings, who never had Office before, and
they are not to be frightened from office 10y a
world destroying comet or two! Not they They
would stand whisk or two of the fiery monster 5
tail first, and go TO The devil with the hypocriu.
cal report that they had "ded at their posts,
doing duty" There may be Douglas men enough
30 ward OIL the impending doom.

creeley's Letter to Seward.

osf week we published letter which rumor
many of the newspapers said was the one

4 os since been published in the Sacramento IN
q the first was false one, in special words
nd language, but true in substance. The senti-
orts we're exactly like those of the real letter,

#r;dn't publish, which is altogether too lengthy,

, ave pretty generally endorsed Greeley's course

IL riobt. and has shown Seward up in his natural
H. selfish light. The Marysville Democrat, in
1liscussing it the other day, said:

VIM. II. Seward was defeated in the grand
hone of his life nomination for the Presidency,
bv the editor who had devoted the energies of a
powerrul mind long and faithfully, to his eleva-

He deserved his fate, and so does every man who
fails to remember that the press, with its silent,
ploddng, patient driver Of the pen behind 1t, and
its pale workers at the case, is a Po'cer IN the

Greeley did not forsake his principles, (ior
these he still advocates,l but he did forsake an
ingrate to personal friendship and the devotion
of years of toll and service. He was right, and,
while we detest his doctrines, we applaud the
manly vgor of that resentment that made the
oblvious Senator remember in the crisis OF his
fate and in the full pride Of his glory, that he
who SCOTS at the friendly breeze that watts him
on, may feel the tempest inits wrath ere his voy
