NEWS OF THE DAY.
THE WAR.

There is much excitement in California in con
sequence of reports that the Secessonists intend
general uprising. An sfsay occurred on the oh
inst, at vsslea, Tulsre County between the Seces
sionists and the Union soldiers, in which soldier
was killed and several persons on the other side
wounded. Some of the Union citizens organized a
a Home Guard and pursued the parties who attacked
the soldiers the house Of the leading Secessonis'
was burned There were rumors, not generally
credited, of Secession outbreaks in Santa Clara and
Soano counties.
Brig. Gen. Gouverneur X. Warren, Chief Of
Engineers in the Army of the Potomac, has been
made Major-General. No movements of a general
character have transpired for time in the army
The weather is intensely hottie earth is dry and
psrched-and man and beast are glad TO seek the
cooling shades.

CARLYLE ON THE KEBEIi.tcN

The American admirers Of Mr. Thomas Car.
lyle have hitherto comprised 10 uncomfortable
number Of the cultivated minds OF the North
ern States. He has also had many readers
among unlettered men who are thinkers-the
men of few books, to whom, nevertheless, the
meaning OF ideas and habits Of reflection are
not unknown. To literary men he has been al
object of admiration for his extensive attain
ments, vigorous intellect, and extraordinary
powers as a writer. They have valued him nc
cordDgly, and have not generally been led cap
tive by his peculiar theories 80 much rs by his
brilliant method Of presenting them. His dis
ciples have been of other classes: young men
cropping for strong men to lean
upon, and finding such ono in
Carlyle; enthusiasts to whom any idea
has a revelation, 80 only that it be revealed by
the mouth of ono speaking with authority
narrow men, accepting such doctrines as are
latest presented aud energetcally enforced
and the much more respectable class which
recognized in Carlyle an earnest seeker OF
Truth, and were blind or generous ~ his self
will perversity of opinion. and indomltable In
capacity Of perceiving the other aide OF any
question. But whoever admired him sincerely
or loved him heartily, if they were not driven
to deny their devotion by the coarse
materialism and passionate inhumanity of the
LatterDay Pamphlets, will have found new
test of the strength of their admiration or their
affection in Mr.. Cnrlyle's publication Of his
opinions on the present contest in the United
States.
He was long ago reported 10 have said that

utterance which passed current as his on no
very sufficient authority, external or intrinsic,
and which his friends did not think il necessa.
ry to remember against him. II was, at tho
worst, coloquial, and though the simle was
inelegant, the sentiment was not 80 much un.
friendly as ambiguous. But Mr.. Carlyle now
condenses his opinions on the War into half a
page Of an English magazine and prints them;
apparently on no compulsion, or on no other
than tho irrepressiblo impulse to declare that
he believes in the supremacy Of tho Devil. A
London journal thus states the substance Of
his declaration:

THE mANAGER,s LAST KICK.

The Daily Ntrs-whch not only is entitled
to be, but is, better posted with regard to
what is passing in the secret councils of the
Rebel chiefs than any other Northern journal
has the following dispatch:

The ri,k L. my OWL willing to take the risk Hire
YOU your servant. by the month the day. and get straight
IN U.avep-leave no to my method But Peter says,
No won't; will beat your brains ont frat And con
cudes Mr. Carlyle with graceful pleasantly he trying
dreaduy ever since but cannot yet manage IT, That IL all:
there what Mr.. Carlyle calls Ilas Americana in Nuce
Mr.. Car!ylcs opinions on Slavery are logic
ally deducible from the etheistic doctrine on
which he everywhere insists, that Might is
Right. Those of his readers, therefore, who
have accepted his fundamental axiom in morals
and politics. can affect no surprise at the prac-
tical application of it to this or any other sub
iect. They need not ever feel any special
concern for the final result in Dir. Carlyle'S
own mind, for it only remains to crush the
Rebellion and free the slave in order to insure
us the possession of his sympathies. The mo-
ment the slave frees himself, he proves that it
was wrong ever to have held him in bondage.
The moment we show that we are the stronger,
we show that We arc right God is on the
side of tho heaviest battalions, not by choice,
but by necessity. Did Mr.. Carlyle compose
and irrevOcably commit to print his epic before
the news of vicksburg and Gettysburg had
reached him
In disgust at the pettine~ and cant Of the
age, says Emerson, Carlyle was driven into
the preaching of fate, and avenged himself on
the impossibility of reform by celebrating the
majestic beauty Of the laws Of decay. With
what effect it is not for us 10 inquire, but We
arc bound to remember what Emerson, in his
admiration Of fearless courage and uncomprom-
isng honesty contryed to forget, that opinions
which may be harmless in speculation, are
dangerous or even fatal when intruded into the
domain Of politics. They have made an earn.
est, true.tearted man, who thinks he hates
what is wicked, the apo Sgi,t Of the wOrs! sin
in Chrstendom and the champion of the
fonlcst cause which tho world has
seen upheld by arms. They make him
even dishonest in the statement of the
case he defends, and keep him ignorant
Of tho facts on which its merits
might be denied. But they have also done him
aud US one service. Mr. Carlyle cannot but
see that Slavery is the Rebellion. His recog-
milton of that fact will d. more harm to the
Rebel cause in England than even defense OF
it upon such q ground. 1t is the one fact
which Rebel sympathizeu there as well as
hero seek to conceal and deny. Not one before
CARLYLE has had the hardihood 10 assert it in
advocacy OF the Rebellion. We sincerely re-
grc!, for his sake. that he does. but we shall
none the less admiringly contemplate the dis
may with which Auglo.Rcbels will welcome
their new ally. For, whatever may be h'
sympalhics, q man who means to speak the
truth is the most dangerous enemy which thor
cause has 10 fear.

ONE OF JEFF's PRopHEcIEs. In
February, 1861, Jefferson Davis made a
speech at Stevenson, Alabama, in which
he uttered the following prophecy, which
needs no comment but the history of the
past two years:
lou border States will gladly come in.
to the Southern Contaderacy within sixty
days, as we will be your only friends. En-
gland will recognize Us, and glorious fu-
ture is before us. The grass will grow
IN the northern cities where the pavements
have been worn by the tread of commerce.
We will carry war where ii is easy to ad-
vance-where food for the sword and torch
await the armies in the densely populated
cities, and though the enemy may come
and spoil our crops, we can raise them as
before, and while they cannot rear the
cities which it took years of industry and
millions of money to build.
