DANIEL s. s./DIcKrSsox. in his great :; MON
speeeh. J. t{Oct. a, closes with the following
graphic lanasage: :
The past aid the future have been torn
widely asundsr by the commissions ofthe
present. Thy political yesterday has been
buried in the lava that has iiowd out from
the xoicaPic eruptions cf to-day. New
IDEAS, new impressions, new impulses, new
efforts are upon US and before US. Those
who stand IN the way of the car of progress
will be crushed By its ponderous wheels.
Those who hesitate to get ON board will be
left behind and be unheard of hereafter.
This Union movement is not a movement for
individual man it Is for mankind. 1t is the
first real struggle between equality and
privilege the new world has ever seen. 1t is
an effort on the part of individuals in the re-
voting States to trample under foot the Con-
stitution of our fathers, and raise up a semi
nobility, based upon involuntary servitude,
upheld by despotic military power, and ele-
waiting and perpetuating the rule and reign
and consequence of families. 1t will be
blasted and overthrown finally, and then it
will be subject of universal wonder how so
bold and wicked an imposture should ever
have been conceived or attempted? Above all,
how it should ever have found advocates or
apologists this side of Bedlam or Newgate,
or perdition. twill fade away suddenly,
but not the baseless fabric of vison" for
it will leave wreck behind "A wreck
of every crime that ever disgraced humanity
"a wreck of every "woe unnumbered'
which the human heart has ever experienced
"a wreck of burial fields unwalled, of va
cant fresides, of desolate hearth stones, of
sighs, and tears, and lamentations. of wild
ows and of orphans, of manned survivors
and wreck of foiled treachery and blistered
traitors, who will evade society of men, and
shun the light, lest Scorn shall point the
Z" slow unmoving finger" and exclaim
'Yes, he was one," and darkly whisper
=" traitor" But rising above this ruin
emerging from the cloud, fresh and beautiful
as flowers that spring up on the departure of
desolation, will be our institutions of
equality, refined and purified in the furnace
of adversely and affiiction, strengthened and
by trial, shining before the
world with renewed lustre, and giving life
and hope, and joy and promise to all Gods
see what lies behind 1t is COM
ing-it is coming!" Dinna ye hear it-dinna
ye hear it, Then, again, in our glorious
Union shall we
.'See truth, love and mercy in triumph
descending.
And Nature all glowing in Eden's first
bloom.
On the cold cheek of Death smiles and roses
are blending,
And Beauty immortal awakes from the

To Editors who See Through Secession
SpectacleS.

Spectacles.
EDITOR CoURIER:-Our glorious native
land is now hard beset in war more ardu.
GUS, more critical, more perilous to her rank
and prosperity, if not her very existence
among nations. than, perhaps any former
contest in which she was ever engaged.
1t is righteous war on her part. The
declared issue-the real issue. is one in
which the United States Government has the
right beyond all question. As far, too, as
such conflict can be ever righteously en-
tered into without due regard to the best
national interests, it is an unselfsh warss 1t
is war involving the highest question of
the worlds welfare. 1t is a war on which
would seem to be staked the destinies of un-
born millions of Americans. 1t is war of
civilization against despotism and for consti-
tutional liberties. 1t is war which has en-
listed the enthusiasm of all ranks in a nation
most Christian, most intelligent, most civil
lied, most pk--iiz.thropic and in all the high
er attributes sf mankind, Everything calls
upon us to take pr. with the Government of
the United S.s.ss il this conflict with our
hearts and souls, and willing hands and
open purses must we guarantee the safety of
all that is dearly cherished by the ffeemen
of America. We certaiuly do not wish to
differ with, much less oensurc the press. We
feel that it would be an unequal conflict
But it is impossible to shut the eyes to what
we conceive to be an unnatural position of
some of our papers, both secular and reli-
gious, on this, the greatest issue of modern
history. The fact cannot be denied or dis
guised, that in this dread strife between the
Government of the United States, and the
traitorous southern oligarchists, the sympa-
thies of some of our editors are with the lat
ter. The fact, we say. cannot be disguised,
although there is sometimes manifested
redeeming sense of shame that would seek to
give it less odious appearance.
And again, men sitting in their EDITORIAL
closets-mcn who have never seen field Of
battle, or learned even the alphabet of mill
tary science, do not hesitate to criticize the
movements and seige operations of our ar
my. Gems Scott and Mcclellan are charg-
ed with incompetency, on the faith of a
public haranguer, who, although engaged in
exciting revolution through sophism of Se-
cessiondon, never exhibited any evidence of
personal courage, and who repays the pro-
faction and hirthrirbt that this Government
has given him, by every effort he can make,
to embarrass the action of its authorities. In
fact these editorial symapathisers of traitors,
condemn the whole management and morale
of the American army, in a manner which
shows how freely they would cast still more
dishonorable imputations upon them, if they
dared to do SO, iu the face of facts that
prove personal heroism unmatched by any
that ever existed in the grandest days of the
ancient chivalry.

Eastern News,

Weszrefer the reader to our telegraphic
column for very pleasing news from the East
ern States. The omens of an early peace,
on grounds honorable to all parties, are aus
picious The continued successes of the
Federal forces have got to be regarded as mat
ters of course. In fact we have received
nothing but good news so long, that nothing
but first class intelligence longer excites.
The news published elsewhere is of that
character. 1t seems that Charleston has
been attacked and its virtual capture accom-
plished by the Federal forces. Open threats
to burn the city were made by its inhabitants
and we do not doubt that it will be DONE
Charleston will be destroyed by her own cit
izens, and even if they do not, it can never
again, for fifty years at least, be what it once
was. 1t will no longer be port of entry.
Her trade and expectations will find other
outlets, and bats and owls will yet build in
the deserted buildings of that pestiferous
city. Who will weep? Whether the city
is captured or not. the back bone of rebel

been expelled from his seat, disgraced
man, by the unanimous vote of the Senate of
the United States, for acts of treason partly
committed while he was Vice President of
the United States in fact, and was aspiring
to be the President, and what is ten thousand
times more whitening to him and his follow
crs, is the reflection that the people of his
own State, and kinsmen say that the judg-
mcnt was a proper one. Pilloried in eternal
shame, immortal in his evergreen infamy,
he twins himself with the leading felon
of history, the peer of Judas, and the supe-
rior Of Arnold. And once the people loved
and honored him, and he was regarded as
the soul of chiyalry, of honor, and of truth.
Thus secession stains, degrades and prosti-
tutes its votaries, like the snake that first
beslimes and then devours.
The Shasta courier., 1861-12-07

GwIN.-The arrest of this person seems to
give general satisfaction to the people of Cal
ifornia, among the Union men, That he was
a participant in the treason now stalking
abroad, theie can be no doubt. And this is
the man who but few years ago made or
unmade the parties and their platforms in
this State, and one that California was proud
to honor, and now he is the nameless thing,
that cursed of God, originally, has been a
kissing and reproach among men since

the card of these gentlemen in to-day's Cou-
RIER. This firm, so well known in North
California, has been doing business in this
town for the last ten years in which time all
classes of community have become aware Of
the private worth and great probity of char
acter of the members composing it We

NIcHr SoNGs. Have you never stood by
the a-side at night, and heard the pebbles
sing, and the waves chant Gods glories- Or
have you never risen from your couch and
thrown up your chamber window, and listen
ed to what? Silence-save now and then
murmuring, which seemed sweet music.
And have you not fancied that you heard the
harp of God playing in Heaven Did You
not conceive that yon stars, that those eyes
of God, looking down on you, were also
mouths Of song-that every star was singing,
as it shone, its mighty Maker. and his law
full, welldeserved praise? Night has its
songs. We need not much poetry in our
spirits to catch the song of night, and hear
the spheres as they chant praises which are
loud to the heart. though they may be silen;
to the ear-the praises of the mighty God.
who bears up the unpillared arch Of Heaven,
and moves the stars in the course.
The Shasta courier., 1861-12-07

TIMELY WARNlNG.-It is understood that
Governor Nye has notified a certain class of
men about town that they had best either
put themselves upon their good behavior or
at once leave this Territory. The warning is
regarded by all who know the Governor, says
the Age, as significant of stern purpose to
purge this community of its more obnoxious
members, by terrifying them into flight or
bringing them to the bar of justice for any
infraction of the law.
