SECESSION SYMpATiuEs IN New YoR1.-There
can be no more deplorable proof Of the utter
profigacy Of our petty local politicians, than
the manner in which they endeavor to make
capital for themselves of the great uprising in
the Northern States to preserve the integrity of
the Union. 1t is known that, before he left New
York, the late Street Commissioner, Mr. Gusta-
vus w. Smith, now major general in the rebel
army, together with his deputy Mr.. Mansfield
Lowell, who has been appointed a brigadier ge-
neral in the same service, labored effectively
and diligently to organize a vast conspiracy in
New York, for the purpose of abetting rebel
lion, so soon as the armies of Generals Beaure-
gard, Lee and johnson should have crossed the
Potomac and occupied Maryland. The ramif-
cations Of this conspiracy extend throughout
the State and city, and leaders Of some of the
local cliques, who appear, for spells sake, most
Jealous in their patriotism, were concerned in
it. Even candidates for Office are perhaps en-
gagged in the hypocritical work Of deccving the
public, and while pledged to the subversion of
our nationality are seeking to obtain place.
The people should take pains to siit out from
their tickets the names Of such double faced
traitors, and prevent disgrace from falling up
on this metropolis OF their elevation to power.

Since you have forced me to relinqulsh my

narrate the anecdote correctly, as Just told
YOU by my friend. The two ships were the
Cyane and Levant sent to take the Consutu-
ton They were both commanded by cup
tains who had won dis tinction at Trafalgar
and the Nile, Captains Falcon and Douglass
After the Constitution had taken both ships,
T. and their captains were on board the Constr
tuition, n GOODNESS existed between them, IN
consequence of the capture. Each accused the
other of bearing out of the action and leaving
the brunt to his associate. This question they
agreed to leave 10 me- and settled it in a mo-
ment. lit was you, Captain Douglass,
ont OF action" They We're satisfied, and shook
hands together. While they were further dis
cussing the matter, and deplorng their defeat,
said i, ''gen tlemen, did You expect to take the
| Constitution with those two shipsy Why,
Won went on board OF them this morning, and
! said they were in as good order as before the
| action Now, If you like, / will send you

! stitution with two ships? Why you couldn't

The CHINESE EMPEROR TAXES Cool VIEW
OF You've AMERIcA:-In the summer falacs,
near Pekin. Lord Elgin found an autograph
of the fugitive Emperor of China, relating to
the uues ton of Mr.. Ward, the American MIN
ister. 1t seems that Mr. Ward offered to pay
to his Celesti Majesty the same marRs OF
resnect as he would nav TO his own President.
The Emperor's memorandum runs thus
at shows that in the manner OF their pre-
sentation at court nothing more can DE done
to bring men to reason. Besides, THESE parpa
for his Majesty the Emperor is the same as that
they feel for their Pill ST. tien- tin, (Presi-
dent just place China on a par with the bar :
barians of the South and East, an arrogauoh
of greatness which is simply ridiculous"

along the line between Tennessee and Ken

south of the middle, striking the Paclfic short
distance south of Monterey bay. On the south
of that line there are about 100000 square

on the north there are about 100000 square
