Lone Mountain.

Far from the noisy, bustling city of San
Francisco lies the city of the dead. Sc
cluded among the rolling hills, embowered
in shrubbery and perfumed by the wild Ii
lac is Lone Mountain Cemetery, the Land
of the Great Departed" Lone Mountain!
Is there not something in name ? and
what name could be more appropriate
what musical pathos, with a rythym of
sadness blended Herewith.
We approached the silent city for the
first time, not with feelings Of curiosity,
but rather with feelings akin to that expe-
rienced by those who pay their pilgrimage
to the tomb of the Prophet, for within its
enclosures sleeps California S honored dead.
On the highest point, as if to watch over
and guard the interests Of CALIFORNIA; dead
as he was won't to guard the interests of
her living citizens, lies the murdered Brod-
erick. Above his head an admiring people
have reared a massive yet beautiful monu-
ment, not to perpetuate his memory, for
that will be handed down from father to
son for generations-but as a token of
their regard for one, who, while living,
they honOred with their confidence. With
the blood of Broderick was California
sealed to the Union.
Close by the last resting place of Brod-
erick, with his martial cloak wrapped
around him, sleeps another no less honored
of Pacifc's noble dead. The Orator, Sen
atOr and Soldier, General Baker, whose ell
Oquence was mighty to move the hearts Of
the people, and whose sword was a terror
to the foes of our common country He
fell in the van, while leading his brave
men to to the charge, another sacrifice up
on the altar of Freedom. Broderick fell,
the first martyr pierced by the bullet of a
traitor, ere the fires Of secession had burst
forth. Baker fell pierced by rebel bullets
while attempting to turn back the tide o1
treason in arms. 1t is well they sleep side
by side, that between the two honored
shrines, California's loyal sons may kneel
and swear anew to defend and protect,
with life and property, and their sacred
honors, the Union for which they died,
while Old Ocean in the distance shall re-
spond deep-tOned "Amen"
In visiting Lone Mountain one loses in
q great degree that dread of death which
all feel more or less. To know that when
our change shall come, and we be called
upon to add one more to the population OF
the silent city, that our long home is to be
made so lovely, while ever blooming flow
ers viii shed their rich fragrance around
our head, and crown our bed with beauty;
watched by the loving care of friends, and
admired by the stranger that visits our
grave. Were it not for the inverted torch
and Inscriptions that tell of death, one
might sappose that he WIS wandering amid
the beauties of some fairy grotto, where
The tender violets bent in smiles
To elves that sported nigh,
Tossing the drops of fragrant dew
To scent the evening sky;
They kissed the rose in love and mirth
And its petals fairer grew;
A shower of pearly dust they brought,
And DER the lily threw.
Plant flowers Ger the graves of the loved
and lost ones, and make their resting place
an emblem of the beauties of the Paradise
of souls.-Red Bluff Independent.

A DIsTINGUIsHED "CoPPERHEAD." =
If the loyal democrats of to-day are "Cop
perheads," George Washington, according
to the Republican definition of that word
was one. Witness the following Cooper
head" remarks in the great Chiefs Fare
well Address to the people of America:
indignantly frown upon the first dawn
ing of every attempt to ALLEVIATE any por-
ton Of our country from the rest, or to en-
feeble the sacred ties which link together
the various parts.
The Constitution which at any time ex-
lists, till changed by an explicit and au-
thentic act of the people, is sacredly oblig-
atory upon all.
Resist with care the spirit of innovation
upon its principles, however specious the
pretexts.
The spirit Of encroachment tends to con-
solidate the power of all departments in
one, and thus create, whatever the form of
government, a real despotism.
Let there be no change by usurpation !;
for though this in one instance may be the
instrument Of good, it is the customary in
strument by which free government is de-
stroyed"

CRITTENDENs ADDREss-Benj. Shurtlif, Of
California, referring to late address of John
J. Crittenden's to the people of his district in
Kentucky, says: "Every man in California, ev-
cry man in America, should read this address.
1t is just such speech on the mighty issues in
volving the life of the nation as Stephen A.
Douglas would make we're he living to. day. It
is such a speech as Henry Clay and Daniel Web
ster would make could they once more speak to
their countrymen. All he says-eYery sentence,
every word he utters- is fragrant with the odor
ef nationality.
Many will not like his speech. Those who
hate the Government Of the United States, and
love rebellion, will not like the views of the ven
cradle statesman. There is too much coercion,
too much war, too strong determination to
whip the rebellion into submission to the Ma
tional authority to suit the views of such men,
Then, again, those who never thought the old
Union was worth having, and thought his ooun-
try was not much value anyhow because Wash
ington, Franklin Hamilton and Madison gave
US a Constitution that was "a league with help
all such men will bitterly assail Crittenden, for
the old Union was good enough for him. and he
is opposed to a separation slavery or no slavery.
Like Douglas, he believes this is white mans
country, and white mans Government, and as
such he is for Zone country, one Constitution
and one destiny

Old Song.

Could a man be secure
That his life would endure,
As of DID, for a thousand long years,
What arts might he know!
What acts might he do!
And all without hurry or care.
But we that have but span-lOng lives,
The thicker must lay on the pleasure,
And since time will not, cannot stay,
Well add the the night unto the day,
And thus we'll fill the measure.
Passion.
A night of fretful passion may consume
All that thou hast of beauty's gentle bloom;
And one distempered hour of sordid fear
Print on thy brow the wrinkles of year.
