IRREvEKEST. Henry Ward Beecher,
for clergyman, uses very irreverent Ian
guage. lie is sensation preacher, and
quite as mean, mercenary and worldly as
Starr King, but far superior to his I'M
principled imitator in originality and elo-
quence. Here is an elegant extract
from ono Of his recent sermons, which
might be excusablc in a filthy bar.room
loafer. Had it been spoken by layman,
outside the church. it would be called
blasphemy. But, being said by Beecher,
to fashionable audience, it is embalmed
with the "Odor Of sahctity." Can min
listers Of the Beechcr order, do any good ?
DO they not disgrace their sacred calling
and bring into contempt religiony Beech
er says, from the sacred desk-sacred
until dcsecrated by him:
"Slavery will 20 TO hell where it came from
We shall conquer the rebels; not in our
own strength. but the Almighty Lord will lay
them over our knee, and We will spank them
10 the natural order Of Providence"
Singular that the purest and best men
of our country, whom we have been
taught to reverencc-WashingtOn, JefFer-
son, Madison, Macon, jackson and thou
sands Of othcrs-loved an institution that
this irreverent demagogue says came from
hell! Does he not know. in using such
language, he dcfames the illustrious dead,
the patriots and heroes of the Revolu.
ton, whose names are embalmed on the
imperishable pages Of history?

FAIsE PnopnEr.-Mr. Seward predicts.

FALSE PROPnET.-Mr. Seward predicts,
say our Atlantic exchanges, that the war
will be brought to close in three months.
Unfortunately the country has lost conf
dence in Mr.. Stewards predictions, not
one Of which has been verified. When
the war commenced he and his followers
assured the people that it would be war
Of brief duration. A single campaign,
bOAstiully and fOOlishly said they, would
end it To make that campaign, a very
large sum Of money was required and
very great number Of men. Congress
lavishly granted more than the President
asked. And what has been the result!
Let Us look facts in the face. That first
campaign has ended. We have advanced
no farther towards the conquest of the
South than on the day when our first
regiment crossed the Potomac. We have
not overcome the prejudices or secured
the cooperation or affection of the South
ern people. We have inHamed not allayed
sectional passions. We have lost many
valuable lives. expended vast sums Of
money, and inflicted much loss and suf1
fering upon the enemy. There is voice
of wall and lamentation in both sections
Of our country. AVE have done little
else. Tho pas YES Mr.Seward a
prophet as foolish Is false. T.

ExTERMISATIoH.- writer in the New
York Tribu"r proposes a war Of cxtcrmi.
nation against the South. We quote his
own words
"As waichman tells us of the night, let rs
hear your voice for strrndi wdr I'LL peace be
c0ngntrFi BY us, and never from us. While
the South has 4, 0no.w'0 Of slaves in her midst,
we hold her in the hollow Of our hands. and
let our cry be, in season and out Of season, as
was CatOs, UeLdHda cot CdrthGgo.'"
He forgot or thought it imprudent to
state, that when Rome wiped out" Car
thage, she left no trace behind. People,
language, history, monuments, all were
destroyed. 1t is such war that Adolf
tionists propose to wage against the South.
1t is such a war that the people of the
United States are invited to prosecute
vigorously.

TOBACCO" An Old tobacco grower"
writes to the Alta, that this State is bound
to be one Of the best tobacco States in the
world. The soil is peculiarly adapted to
its growth, the climate excellent, and the
leaf is equal to the best. In the opinion
Of the writer, who seems to be familiar
with the subject, this State will produce
more to the acre than Virginia. The to-
baccO worm is not known here. In few
years cotton, rice and tobacco will be cul-
tivated extensively in the Southern coun.
ties, and California will export instead Of
import these articles.

GREAT SToRM.--We learn from the
SiIrer Age that the late storm in Nevada
Territory was the severest ever known,
and that it came to a climax on Tuesday
Of last week. The Catholic Church at
Carson City was destroyed, houses were
unrOOfcd, fences thrown down, and sew
eral frame buildings tOppIed over. In
the mountains the storm ragged violently
and unterruptedly for several days and
nights.

DEER.-The late SHOWS upon the noun

they are now frequently seen in the val

KING. - PULPIT PEDDLEK.-The mer.
cenary p, n Of pulpit patriotism, says
the Folsom Telegraph, I. Starr King,
delivered discourse in San Francisco, on
Sunday, in which he assumed that it was
the duty Of the people of California to
subscribe vastly to the war loan. If upon
this proposition Mr.. King had himself
presented an example in practice by sub
scribing the same amount he is wealthy
enough to do SOY that he has received
from the people Of California as a hired
huckster Of patriotism, he would have
proved himself to be Union advocate in
at least a slight measure proportionate to
his talk.
