GUBERNAToRIAL-The Sacramento Union
uses the following language, in speaking of the
various candidates whose names will appear
before the Union Democratic Convention for
Governor
In our Judgment, after weighing the chances
for and against quite deliberately, John Bid
well would make more acceptable candidate
to the people of California than either of the
gentlemen named for that high position He
is man of high character, sound Judgment,
large California experience, and is not a poll
tician. He has never been in public life, has
no political sins to answer for, and has always
been consistent Union loving, conservative
Democrat. The Union Democratic party can
be united on John Bidwell
LINE PoINT AGAIN.-The Supreme Court
has decided that the law providing for the
condemnation of private property for the use
of the general government is constitutional,
consequently the land at Lime Point will be
condemned. jury assess its value, the Govern
ment will pay for and occupy it for military
purposes, and Gwyn & Co. will not make
fortune out of that speculation.

South Carolina.


Perhaps few of our readers recollect that
the legislature of South Carolina called con-
vention for the 26th Of April 1852, at Colum-
bia, in which the following ordinance was
adopted on the 3Oth of April
AN ORDINANCE TO DECLARE THE RIGHT OF
THIS STATE TO SEcEDE FROM THE FEDERAL
UNION.
We the people Of the State Of South Carolina,
in coauention assembled do declare and orddin,
and it is hereby declared and ordained, That
South Carolina, in the exercise of her sovereign
will. as an independent state, accede to the
Federal Union, known as the United States of
America; and that in the exercise of the same
sovereign will, it is her right, without let,
hindranee, or molestation from any power
whatsoever, to secede from the said Federal
Union; and that for the suf1iciency of the
causes which may impel her to such separation,
she is responsible alone, under God, to the tri-
bunal of public opinion among the nations Of
the earth.
Upon the motion to adopt the report, the
yeas and nayes were called for, ordered, and
taken as follows: Yeas, l36; Nays, 10.
This was done to confirm the doctriue of
Calhoun, that State, as party to the
constitutional compact, has right to secede." "
The old nullifer sowed deep in the hearts of
his Southern followers, the seeds of this erronl-
Gus and fatal doctrine so well and ably COM
mented upon by the late Judge CASTOR of n.
c., who thus treats of the subject:
Threats of resistance, secession, separation,
have become common as household words, in
the wicked and silly violence of public de-
Chalmers. The public ear is familarized and
the public mind will soon be accustomed to
the detestable suggestions of dissunion. Cal
cuations and coniectures--wha may the East
do without the South, and what may the South
do without the East ?-sneers, menaces, re-
proaches, and recriminations, all tend to the
same fatal end What can the East do with
out the South? What can the South do with
out the East? They may do much they may
exhibit to the curiosity ofpolitlcal antagonists
and the pity and wonder of the world, the
" disiecta membra," the sundered bleeding
limbs Of a once gigantic body, instinct with
life and strength, and vigor. They can fur
nish to the philosophic historian another mel
ancholy and striking instance Of political
axiom, that all republican confederacies have
an inherent and unavoidable tendency to dis
solution. They will present fields and occa-
sions for border wars, for leagues and counter
leagues, for the intrigues of petty statesmen,
the struggles Of military chiefs, for confisca-
ton, instructions, and deeds of darkest hue
They will gladden. the hearts of those who
have proclaimed that men are not fit to govern
themselves, and shed disastrous eclipse on
the hopes of rational freedom throughout the
world. Solon in his code proposed no punish
ment for paricde, treating it as an impossible
crime. Such, with US, ought to be the crime
of political parricde-the dismemberment Of
nnr !" fatherlandn

Curious Development.

1t appears that the examination Of the tele-
graphic dispatches seized by the Government
is developing some very strange things
Among other curious developments, the tele-
graph notices the fact that it is shown that
Mr.. Harvey, now in the diplomatic service
of the Government, formerly editor of the
Philadelphia North American, Republican
paper of the first water, and more lately the
Washington correspondent of the New York
Tribune, has been in reasonable correspondence
with the enemy. 1t is stated that the first
certain information telegraphed TO Charleston
Of the strength of the reinforcements sent by
the Government to the assistance of Major An
derson was sent by Mr.. Harvey After this,
we would not be surprised to hear that old
Greeley had been giving aid and comfort to
the enemy" by telegraph. His special seces
sion correspondence from Montgomery is
strongly against him.

AFRAID OF MAJ. BIDwELL.-The Appeal
man in quoting part of the remarks of Maj.
Bidwell before the Union Democratic Conven-
ton of this county, premises them by stating
that the Major was once Breckenridge maD,-
of course this is no trick and malice" on the
part of the model editor, nor impelled by any
partisan politics. oh no he would not do such
things. But the fact is, he sees that if Bid
well is nominated for Governor his hopeful pet,
Stanford, will not have ghost of chance
for the Office so long promised to him. Charge
on, Appeal, the Major can stand the press
BY the way, Major Bidwell has been from the
Charleston Convention to the present time one
of the most devoted and consistent Douglas
Democrats in our county. And the charge of
the Appeal is unfounded, and unwarranted
and all know it.
