AssassinaIfons.

In reading the pages Of History, and
noting the innumerable assassinations OF
Rulers that have taken place, the surprise
is not that Abraham Lincoln fell by the
hand Of a murderer, but that our Govern
ment should have existed eighty years
without q single successful attempt upon
the life Of the National Executive.
Human nature is much the same the
world over; and 1t was, perhaps, expect
ing too much that we should prove, in this
respect, an exception to the universal
rule.
Assassination is the offspring of the
East. There formerly existed in Central
Asia a sect called the "Assassins," the
prime article in whose creed was serve
God and murder your fellow-man."
Most of the Caliphs that made the name
of Bagdad so illustrious were taken off"
by private murder. Three-fourths of all
the Sultans Of the Ottoman Empire were
strangled in their baths or stabbed in their
harems. With a single exception, every
Bey of the Regency of Tunis for one
hundred and fifty years, died n violent
death. Of the Emperors Of Rome how
few died a natural death! Of the Doges
of Venice-of the Sovereigns Of Lom-
hardy, Tuscany and the other Italian
States, q large proportion fell by the
hand of the assassin. No less than three
of the Bourbon Kings or Princes of France
met a similar fate. Henry the Fourth,
the founder of the Dynasty, who was
stabbed in the streets in Paris by the re-
ligious fanatic Ravailliac the Duke de
Berri and another heir to the royal throne.
Several attempts to take the life of Louis
Phillip were made-in one instance near
ly his entire escort falling victims to an
" internal machine" set in operation for
his destruction. Napoleon the First mar.
rowly escaped assassination several times ;
while the attempts to murder the present
Emperor are fresh IN the public recollcc-
ton.
The Anglo Saxon race does take readily
to assassination ; yet the history of Eng
land is full of instances Of attempts, sue
cessful or unsuccessful, upon the lives of
the Sovereign or the great men of the
State. William the Third escaped assas-
sination al by a miracle. Three attempts
were made upon the life Of George the
Third. William Pitt was the subject Of at
least one murderous attempt; while a few
years later an English Prime Minister
Hon. Spencer Percival was assassinated
in the lobby of the House of Commons by
the desperate ~Bellingham.
We might extend the list Of royal mar
tyrdoms and princely murders almost in
definitely ; but the above will suffice to
show that in the violent death of Abra-
ham Lincoln history is only repeating
itself.-Abany Journal.

ESERoErIc, BUT DIsHoNEsr.-At the
gallows scene of Mrs. Surratt, Payne,
Harold and A~tzerodt, a white-chokered
gentleman exclaimed, just as the scum Of
earthly-hell were swung of, MAY wei all
meet in Heaven THEREBY meaning that
the souls of these assassins might meet the
souls of the righteous in the realms Of
Heaven. We doubt whether Heaven was
prepared by the Great Jehovah for the re-
ception Of the souls of men and women Of
that stamp. If zoe should ever get so low
in the scale of humanity-so low in the
scale Of everything living except the exist
ence of a snake or a traitor to the land of
our birth, as to be guilty of such an aw-
full crime, the opposite of Heaven shall be
the only doom we shall expect We are
not aristocratic, nor much above the aver
age of mankind, but we don't want to
meet them assassins in Heaven.

POLITICAL.

The political elements of this State are
quite serene at present. But in Califor-
MA politics are foaming like a sea with a
storm raging. Many Of the counties are
overlapping their ambition, and, as there
are barely Offices enough for so many
really smart men as the Union party is
possessed OF, and as the Broom-Ranger,
or whilom.D Democratic, party has no
earthly chance Of getting into a public
position, offers are freely rendered to vari-
Gus little cliques to form new organiza-
lions. The bait takes in many of the
counties in that State. We all, on this
side Of the Sierras, know where Shasta is,
and the bolter fever has even broke out
there. We find in the Courier Of last
Saturday, the following in an article on
the subject:
All have the right to change their
opinions on political ssues. They have
the right to determine what party they
will work with. But they have not the
moral right to do these things under false
pretences. Let them be manly. II they
want Democratic votes, let them go into
that party but, for the sake of decency,
let them not claim Democratic votes under
some other guise. From the commence
ment to the close Of the rebellion, there
has never been q political organization
that we loved less than that known as
Democratic, nor did we suppose n could
be framed for which we could feel a greater
disgust /; yet it has been done. San
Francisco took the lead, and from there
it has spread over many parts Of the
State, and ia known as the peoples
Party "-principally composed of sneaks
from the Union and Democratic parties.
1t exists only for mischief. Its object is
entirely m~ercenary /; no higher principle is
found in it. 1t was framed to d~isorganize
a respectable party, and to draw strength
from another, which, if it has no other
merit, has that of having been bold in its
treason.
Five" we can spare you: we can get
along without you; but, for the sake of
old associations, we beg you to be manly.
Come out under rue ~colors, for at this
hour you fool nobody with names.
Any ticket run against the Union
nominees is a Democratic ticket in every
sense. A change Of name only makes 1t
more contemptibly mean.

FALSE ENTRIES.

The revenue officers are after the wine
merchants of San Francisco with a shark
stick. The Custom House authorities
have lately created much CONSERVATION
among importers by Selling the following
packages Of wines for frauds on the Reve-
nue., in addition to the lists Of such seiz-
ures as we have already mentioned: 900
casks, SO half-casks and 5.5l4 cases Of
Red Wines ; II casks and l,549 cases Of
White Wine-making a total value Of
more than $3.50, 900 worth of goods. The
seizure was made on the ground that the
wines were undervalued with the inten-
ton to evade the duties. The Flag says
the frauds on the Revenue by this system
Of undertaking wines and liquors to
avoid payment of import duties, exceeds
$4,000, 900 per annum, and is rapidly on
the increase. So notorious have these
frauds become that the Secretary of the
National Treasury has appointed a Com
mittec consisting Of Stephen Colwell Of
Philadelphia, S. S. Hays Of Chicago, d.
A Wells of Troy, New York, and E. B.
Elliot Of Boston-all celebrated men Of
science and statisticians-to prepare a plan
to secure to the people the full amount Of
the national revenue. 1t wa probably
through Instructions Of this Committee
which has been in session for nearly a
month that the local Custom House
officers have acted in this matter. The
Special Treasury Agent, who is nov at
the Bay investigating the subject, was
stationed in France for three years, for the
express purpose of making himself ac-
quainted with the brands and qualities Of
wines imported into the United States,
and is well acquainted with all the details
of the subject.
It is said that the French Consul at San
Francisco has, in connection with some of
the merchants Of that place interested in
the matter, made arrangements to send q
deputation to Washington to lay the case
before the French Minister.

THE COMING MAN.

He will not be a nohleman ; nor for us
a statesman; very likely he will not be a
philosopher in the finer sense of the word;
he will probably be a" greasy mechanic"
Often and often we have thought Of him
as he will be, and the achievement which
will make him famous and rich, and lift
the whole country with a flow of pros
perity. he will be the payer of the National
Debt; though his chief-work of redemp-
ton will be begotten. it is very likely, in
the deeps Of personal poverty. 1t is true,
there is n man in the Republic whose
genius as developed in the past might in
dictate that he was or was to be the coming
man. And he is wealthy to-day. We
refer to Ericsson; the gunboat builder,
not the proprietor of the Durham stock.
This looming man." whoever he may be
in person, may now be described as the
inventor of a quick and exhaustive pro-
cess for the reduction and separation of
precious ores. When one of our millennium
exchanges comes to hand, we glance at
its title and its Observation-Disclosures
to impress the reader with immediate be-
lief in the speedy advent of the New Jeru-
salem-and find that u nearest approach
to q conviction of the worlds material re-
juvenation is comprehended in the thought
and expectation of an original and perfect
Art in extracting valuable mineral, from
the mother ledge, without waste, with conn.,
plete sitting, at q triAing cost. Imagine
for o moment and it will seem q
picture Of the Imagination more and more
as you reflect upon it-imagine for q
moment that the hardest quartz, or what
are now the most difficult ledge-sands for
solution, could be absolutely separated
and sealed at the cost in a mill and refin-
ing works, after delivery, for one dollar q
ton! Yet, to a less figure than this may
the hope of the age, prcdicated on the
attainments of years gone by, be directed
with no intrinsic unreasonableness. A
greater cheapening than this has occurred
in other departments of business and
labor. And we think it probable that the
inventor whom we would hail as the
grandest benefactor of the time will have
a companion with a patent right for tun-
nelling the mountains at the rate of ordi-
nary t~urnpiking. These two inventions
will almost necessarily happen together a;
and their cooperative value will require
the arithmetic of the future for a fully
realized estimate. Then the chambers Of
the miner will be as comfortably accessa-
Bile as the factory and foundry; then gold
and silver will be brought forth in such
plenty that their use will descend in avail
able measure from coin and ornament to
utensil service among the middle classes,
even, Of the Republic. Talk of good
times coming! Express disbursement
at the average "dcad. broke of our little
mining community! Why, we know not
what a day may reveal for the greatness
and the glory of the precious mineral re-
gions and all they that dwell therein.
May your eyes behold THE "CoMINo
MAN"
