"As mountains mostly run in chains and clus-

The Statesman of Strawberry Valley has
gone from the places that once knew him.
There is vacant chair by the side of the

of stalwart feet absorb the caloric generated

East Township. The clashes of merliment
with which Charles IL. was "wont to set the

gers, or are hushed 10y longngs for the days
that have been. The voices of mourning are

meet him, when they once know who he is.
1t is to be hoped that he carries his resou-
tions and speeches in a conv venient pocket,
for the cold Democratic leaders" on the Gulf
might else hang him, on learning that he ar
rives from the United States. If they will
but stay proceedings, however, until he can
spread his tricks, he will be spared to aid
in resisting the coerciye demonstrations of the
keystone regiments, and may, perhaps, one
day experience that unpleasant sensation, so
often dwclt upon by Secessionists, of being
arrayed against brother or school-mate
upon the bloody field of battle: for Charles
IL. is Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania is in
arms. The arrival in Texas of eX-Assembly-
man Kungle may exercise a fearful influence
upon the relations between ours and foreign
nations. England and France can hardly
withhold their recognition of the indepen-
dence of the Southern Coufedcracy" when
they learn that it has been recognized by
leading statesman of luba county. We have
really been informed that Kungle has gone to
Texas. We deem it necessary TO assure our
readers that we make the statement in good
faith, lest some may think We are disposed to
jest. The object of his mission has not trans
pred here, but it is barely possible that he
goes 20 take place at the Court st. Sambo
as one of the new Emperor's constitutional
advisers; for we cannot believe that he will
bury his talent in Il napkin in the thinly-
settled regions Of Texas. We shall look with
interest, hereafter, for an account of the ar
rival in Cottondom, from Pennsylvania, ria

William NJ. GWin.

William NJ. Gwin is once more in Calitor-
MIA Though out of office he comes again
among us, and his venerable form gratihes.
the vision Of grateful people. They look
upon him with joy, for they realize that his
public career is ended, ard his very presence
here reminds them that he no longer has
seat in the Senate. What may be his errahd
we cannot divine. Perhaps he comes to eX-
hort us to stand by the Union. Possibly he
comes to write the platform for his faithful
servants Of the past, who are to meet IN State
Convention on the / lth Of the present month
lie may have come as Commissioner from
the Montgomery Congress to negotiate with
"Charcs Lindley, Chairman" for peace
He may have come TO secretly offer induce
ments to the knights of the Golden Circle to
maintain the integrity of their national party
lie may have come to organize a revolution
in our State, bringing with him full authori-
ty from the rebel leaders to speak in their
behalf with their sympathizers here. lie has
ever been in the councils of Davis, Toombs,
benjamin, Slidell and the rest, ana II they
are wild enough to hope for an extension OF
their proposed Republic through to the Pa
cfc, and for a conquest of the Southern part
of this State for that purpose, they would
give Gwin the entire charge of that portion
of their scheme. That William NJ. Gwin is a
traitor who can doubt who knows his past
record? We do not like his presence here at
this time; and we hope that his movements
will be jealously watched.
Can it be possible that we judge too harsh
ly? Great charity might make us hope that
he comes governed by the same spirit that
prompted Hester Prynne, after years of alb
sence, to return voluntarily to the place
where she had sinned and to resume the
badge of disgrace-the SCARLET LETTER
which others no longer compelled her to
wear.

in the precise movements of the Marysville

exercise, that we soon ceased to be surprised

GEN. SHIELDS SPEECH "A large asscmblage
listened to the speech of Gen Shields, at the
Pavilion last evening, on the National crisis.
We are unable to give an extended report
The General pledged himself to stand by the
Constitution, to stand by the Government,
and to stand by tie administration Of Presi-
dent Lincoln in itS enforcement of all The iamS
lie said that he believed G cneral Scott would
shortly envclop "Mister jeff. Davis" in a net
from which he could not escape; ; that he
would prosecute this war in a manner worthy
of American humanity. lie said there was
not much love between Davis and Scott that
the former hated the latter intensely. He
did not believe Gen. Scott could hate Davis
or any one else with any great intensity, for
he had great and generous heart but he
thought he had just enough of hatred
mixed with contempt for Davis.
The speaker was repeatedly applauded,
and when he concluded three cheers were
given him. lie arose again and made
patriotic response Three cheers were then
given for General Scott Senator DeLong
was then called for, and took the stand. He
paid a fine tribute to Gen. Shields, but took
issue with the belief expressed by that gen
tleman, that there were but few Secessionists
in California. He spoke at some length de-
nouncing the secession doctrine, and declar
ing his loyalty to the Government The late
ness of the hour precludes a more extended
notice of the meeting at this time.
