MUST ALL OUR GovERNoRs BE SAoRAMEN-
rANs THUS far in the history Of this State,
every man chosen Governor has been a
Sacramentan. Burnett, Bigler. Johnson,
Weller, and Latham were all residents of
Sacramento when elected. Now, Stanford,
another Sacramentan, is candidate. In al
luding to this singular fact the Union says
For the first time in the history of tho
State, man from one of the mountain coun
ties (Conness) has been nominated for Gov
ernor, and the natural conclusion is that
those counties will give him a Jealous and a
strong support. The people may, and prob
ably will, say thatit is about time man was
elected Governor who does not live in the
city of Sacramento. But the prestige of
being from Sacramento is worth something
to man, as all the successful candidates have
heretofore hailed from this locality. The
question whether Sacramento or a mountain
county shall furnish the next Governor, is
one which the people will be called upon to
decide at the next election.

REPUBLICAN PARTIzANsHIP REBuKED.-The
New York Times, of late date, in an article
entitled "The temper of the Northern masses, +"
says:
There are, of course, few political organs,
with whom the supremacy of party is of
higher consideration than the preservation of
the Constitution, who are delving among the
embers of party prejudices, and endeavoring
to fan them into life, but their voice is dis
regarded and their course rebuked by the
contempt into which they have fallen.

The Governor and s. B. Smith.

The late Legislature, as our readers will
remember, passed an act directing the Board
of War Commissioners created in 1855, con-
sisting Of J. W. Denver and S. B. Smith, to
proceed again to Washington with their old
Clerk, A. j. Phelan, within sixty days from
the date Of the Act, and make final settle
ment with the Government, taking with
them the necessary papers and vouchers for
the purpose The sum of nine thousand dol
lars was appropriated by the Legislature to
pay the Commissioners and one Clerk who
accompanied the Board on the former visit,
and remained still attached to it each mem
Der of the Commission Including the Clerk
to receive S., 900 for his services. The money
was drawn, says the Sacramento Union, over
month ago, and Denver and Phelan, the
Clerk, started on their way to Washington.
procuring the passage Of the law, remained
behind until the sixty days expired, when
Gov Downey took it upon himself to appoint
a new Commissioner, by virtue of a provision
in the law, which states, "in case of either of
the said Commissioners failing or refusing to
perform the duties imposed on them, the
Governor shall appoint some competent per-
son to fill the vacancy" The person ap-
pointed by Governor Downey is B. Nordhei-
mer, who is represented to be owner of some
100000 in the bonds issued by the State
He is understood to have left for Washing
ton in the steamer Of Thursday.
The appointment of Nordheimer was made
within a day or two after the expiration of
the sixty days. although it was well enough
understood that Smith would leave in ample
time to attend to his duties as Commissioner
AS the Union remarks, the most unpleasant
part Of the bushes is, that Smith having
drawn bis pay as Commissioner, and Nord-
heimer having been appointed to discharge
his duties, the latter will of course present
his claim to the State, which equally Of
course, the next Legislature is bound to al
low. Unless, therefore, the sum Of three
thousand dollars can be recovered on the
bonds of the original Commissioner, the State
will lose that amount No possible inconve-
nience to the bond holders could have arisen
from the few days delay of Mr.. Smith and the
appointment of person in his place, under
such circumstances would subject any one
less given to resentment than is Gov. Downey,
to the suspicion of having sought to punish
one who did not do the agreeable as a lobby

Rev. T. Starr King and the Sacramento
TIniOu.

The San Francisco Bulletin, of Wednesday
the 10th inst. contains notice of the first OF
the Mercantile Library Course of Lectures
which was delivered at the Academy OF Mu-
sic on Tuesday evening,by the Rev. T. Starr
King. The following is from the notice in
question
Last night the house was crowded. MIR.
King, when the applause that greeted MS
appearance had subsidized, said
Ladies and Gentlemen: l intended ana
hoped to offer to you and the officers OF the
Mercantile Library Association an address
that had not appeared in print. Having re-
ceived very fattering invitation to speak
in Sacramento on the 4th, thought that
could give there large portion OF the ad-
dress prepared for this evening, without any
prejudice to the rights of this Assoclaton'-
And therefore requested the managing pro-
prietor of the Sacramento Union newspaper
to print only a report of the address, and not
a stenographic transcript of it, as was un-
der engagement TO deliver it here and else
where in the State. Though repeatedly. ap
pealed to. lie refused this courtesy which no
respectable newspaper, so far as my knowl-
edge extends, ever did before. To protect
luc hoeOCldblOu mere, L Illcll OOVu'hSN " w
right and gave him notice oft. But he still
printed it in full in defiance of courtesy of
justice, of legal right, and ola short but COM
prehensive and serious sentence, in very
ancient code, which runs, "1hou shalt not
steal" (Applause) | say this this by way
of explanation to those present who may
have seen the buccaneer copy of portions of
the lecture in the Union of Saturday last, and
huy % fnuuH ,nf in I'D, HOW ia tlp
provision for the present entertainment. 1t
would be proper for me now TO say that all
persons who have read the address may re-
tire and have their money refunded at the
door, but my friends, the Chairman of the
Lecture Committee fearing that too many
would avail themselves of such privilege,
refuses to give me the right to make such an
announcement. Laughter. Mr. King then
then proceeded with his lecture.
To this the Union makes a tart reply, Of
which the following is a specimen:
We have said many kind word for Mr.
King, and he will forgive us if we tender
him little wholesome advice now, especial
ty as he is, comparatively speaking, new
conner among US. The people Of California
have not been accustomed to having Fourth
of July orations peddled out to them in
piecemeals, for money, and are inclined to
suspect the sincerity of those whose senti-
ments of patriotism. however loudly pro-
claimed, are subordinate to their intense love
of self and the "root of all evil" Byron ex-
presses in another connection the idea, " hich
seems to be prevalent in the ruling DISPOSE
tion of the reverend gentleman when he says
in Don Juan:
They grieved for those who perished with the
cutter,
And also for the biscuit cakes and butter
