Mr. Latham leaves for California on the steamer

stands unblemished in all that he has done in

the Peace Committee Of the House. stamp him as
a man of proper views and answering patriot

yesterday before the Sons of Erin in which he
stated that he was for the Union first and party
afterwards; that he would sacrifice the latter for
the former at any time rather than sunder the
Confederacy. His remarks were pointed, pithy
and conveying the right sentiments.

SOME WERE BAPTIZED WHERE OTHERS WE'RE
HANGED. Near the place in Columbia, Tuolumne
county, where in former times mobs hanged bad
characters, a clergyman recently baptized several
converts to religion. Verify the waste places
shall blossom as the rose But this pleasing re-
Election only signifies change toward restraining
influences, not absolutely reformation. Mobs
may not hang so many persons as in earlier days,
but that does not lessen the number of those who
ought to be hanged in getting rid OF one error
another is often produced the error OF hanging
by the people has been transformed to the inter
ference of the Supreme Court with the actions OF
lawful tribunals which regularly decide that GER
tain persons who deserve to be hanged must be
hanged at certain times. This almost invarablc
Interference is an encouragement to abandoned
and malignant hearts the restraining influence
of the execution Of the law is perverted by the
chief instrument of the law. The notion that
the community is getting better as to the matter
of killing and quarrel, should be encouraged !;
but when It is said that the lion will soon lie
down with the lamb, we will maintain that the
lambs place will be inside Of the lon.--Nountdtn

Nzr. EiUcOin's Senffsn ents.

Abraham Lincoln has made the follow
ing declaration against ali compromises or
concessions to the Slaveocracy:
II will suffer death before | will con
sent, or advise my friends to consent, to
any concession or compromise which looks
like buying the privilege Of taking posses
sion of the Government to which we have
Il Constitutional right; because, whatever
| might think Of the merit Of the various
propositions before Congress, should re-
gard any concession in the face of menace
as the destruction of Government itself,
and consent on all hands that our system
shall be brought down to level with the
existing disorganized state Of affairs III
Mexico. But this thing will hereafter be,
as it is now, in the hands of the people !;
and if they desire to call Convention to
remove any grievances complained OF, or
to give new guarantees for the performance
of vested rights, it is not mine to oppose. y

Tinidity,

would compromise are mad. Timidity,
folly, and criminality alone can counsel
surrender just at the point when we are
upon the eve Of winning a most conclusive
victory in behalf of the great cause of con-
stitutional liberty and selfgovernmcnt
We beg the Republican compromisers
to stay their hand. We beg them not to
consummate the suicide of their principles
and their party, The Republicans are
masters Of the situation. Nothing is
wanting but firm hand and a steady rein,
and a most glorious and overwhelming
triumph awaits US. Secession will cure
itself, and without war or ruin to anybody
but those who pcrtinaciously drag those
evils down uTon their own heads. 1t is
true the Government is eaveloped in a
storm. But its foundations are strong
and immoyablc, for they reposc in the
hearts of the people. 1t can stand the
Strain put upon it. Let it not abate a
hair Of its just authority. Let it not con-
cede an inch, bat let it bide It's time in
confidence and patience, exercising for
bearace, but demanding obedience, and
rejecting all propositions of surrender,
whatever form or guisc they may assume.
So it viii save itself from decentralization,
aud come forth with new prestige and
accumulated vitality.
