The Test Oath.

Hon. Edward Bates, Of Missouri. in a
recent letter thus gave his opinion Of the
Congressional Test cath. He says:
Test oaths, odious. oppressive, and
cowardly always. are always the resort
Of desperate parties who (as violent as
timidiiy can make them) seize upon this
method 10 weaken their adversaries,
whom they are afraid to meet in fair and
open controversy. 1t was of frequent oe-
eurrence during the French revolution,
and one remarkable instance has been
preserved for our instruction by the great
historian of that epech. The two legis,
tive councils-the Aneients aud the Five
Nundred-imputing to their adverssries
the crime OF Royslism, hoped BY an
sdroit trick to get rid Of their presence in
the councils. and their influence with the
people. And so. in the forged name Of
Republicanism, they decreed that all the
members of the councils sheuld, on scer-
tain day, take an oath Of hatred 10 royal
ty. The opposition (quiIe as good Re.
pHOHchuh, IN IACt, hs tutt nypOCTltlChl
oppressors) resisted, as best they could,
complained and pro,ested-6a they took
NE ooth-for they had no notion Of de-
ssrting their place in the Government,
and thus leaving their unprincipled ad-
versaries, unrssisted, 10 work out their
wicked will in the misgoyernment OF the
country. And the pbilssophic historian
dismisses the subject with the brief re-
mark: This formality of an oath, so
frequently employed by parties. never
could be considered as guaranty; it has
never been anything but an annoyance Of
the conquerors. who have taken delight in
forcing the conquered to Psriure thsm-
selves"
Justice-that was the craft policy OF
the French Revolutionary radicals-shd
our revolutionary radicals do but follow
their example. And We may indulge tbs
hope that tbs reign of our Radicals will
be made as brief as that of their great
examples, and by the same csuss-their
folliss aud their crimes.

Cold WEATHER NonrH.--OSr SOutherH
readers can hardly realize that the people
North are having one Of the most rigid win
tiers experienced for many years. There has
hardly been any use for overcoats about here
while up North the cold is regarded as re-
markable. The kilograms represent it still
very severe, and the New York Tribune, Of
the 10th, says:
Yesterday was not only the coldest day ot
the season, but the coldest we have had, ac-
cording to the old inhabitants, for the last
twenty-five years, On Sunday, after mid
night, the mercury fell to thirteen degrees
below zero, and stood but little above zero
during any part of yesterday. The wind,
sharp and cutting, blew fercely and bitterly
from the north, freezing ears and noses with
out mercy, and causing positive suffering to
pedestrians and all those compelled to be
outdoors. Baynrd Taylor, whom we met in
Broadway, brilliant in facial huss of crimson
asd violet, said he felt much colder than when
he rode behind raindesr in Lapland, with
the THERMOMETERS at fifty degrees below zero.
That great thoroughfare was comparatively
deserted. There was no blockade of vehicles
on the Russ pavement no crowd or confu-
1iou of pedestrians On the sidewalk.

Been, in.dyer..ntly, doing .on,.hing to

been, inadvertently, doing something to
the contrary! The impudence Of Tucker
& Co., in rushing in relief propositions, Is
truly refreshing. We have heard it init
mated that these preposterous claims were
introduced to impede or defeat the passage
through the Assembly Of the Orphan
Asylum Bill.
And, speaking Of the Asylum Bill, we
are reminded that we intend to make q
synopsis Of the debate last had thereon in
the Senate. We may state now that dur
ing the discussion, prior to the passage Of
the bill in the Senate, on Tuesday last,
Mr.. Winton stated that he might have
been unfortunate, but that he had met few
citizens of Storey county who were not
opposed to the bill. When pressed by
Senator Kellogg to name those who OBJ
jec,ed to the Asylum appropriation, he
mentioned only one-Mr. Geiger. Sena-
tor Winton then went on to State that one
citizen who signed the favoring petition
had expressed to him his regret for so do
ing, and had urged him to do all he could
to defeat the appropriation. When called
upon to name this person, Winton said
that he referred to John-Piper. Itso hap
pened that John Piper went down to
Carson on Wednesday; and of course he
was questioned Is to how he came
to "go-back" on his petition. He
said he had not done 80! He said
he was, and always had been. in favor
of the appropriation and should vote for
it Il in the Legislature. When Senator
Winton's remarks were told him, he said
that Winton had come to him and COM
planned Of his (Piper's) signing the Asylum
bill petition ; and thereupon Piper de-
clared his unqualified favor for the meas
ure, at the same time remarking (of c~ourse)
that if Mr.. Winton desired to vote against
the bill he could do so at his pleasure
adding that he (Piper) would do what he
thought was right in the premises, If he
was in the Senator'S place, even il he
thought different from a majority Of his
constituents. On these general, natural
remarks from Piper, which were 6onsd out
Of him by brother Winton, Piper was
made to appear as being in actual hostility
to q measure for which he had been CO.
creed into formal approval. This is, we
are assured, only n out of many illus
t~rations Of the lodges resorted to BY the
religious and specially pious opponents Of
this purely charitable appropriation.
P. S.-Since writing the above, we
learn that the local tax exemption bill for
Virginia City has passed the Assembly
only Hall voting aga,nst,;a and Wood dodg-
ing the vote. Here, also. were cases Of
extensive Aop, for the advantage of the
Deople.

AROMATIC sroRY.--AM Memphis paper
has quite q touching story Of conjugal
affection. Some ten years ago, q young
couple married, and at the end Of q year,
after the birth Of q daughter, they separate
ed and q divorce was obtained. For nine
long years they never law or heard from,
Oh spoke Of each other. The little girl
was taught to believe that her father was
dead. Two or three days ago 10 the lady
and her daughter entered q business house
in Memphis, they met the husband and
father coming out. Each stopped and
looked into the others face. Then the
father turned to his child and stopping
down took her in his arms, pressed her to
his bosom and covered her with kisses.
Setting her down he looked once more into
her mothers face and started to 90. he
heard his name and turned. Another
look. and husband and wife were again in
each others arms. They were left alone
for . few minutes, then q carriage was
and but q few minutes mora had
before they were remarked.

DEATH OF CHARLES L. PEcK.-Our
communities were, last week. startled and
shocked by the intelligence Of the death Of
Charles L. Peck, formerly and for some
Superintendent Of the Hale s Norcross
Mining Company. He died on Thurs
day, of last week, of "aneurism Of the
arterie innominata," or an enlargement Of
the main artery leading from the heart to
the right side Of the head. Mr.. Peck was
held in high esteem, when residing among
US; and the expressions here of profound
regret ct his decease have been very many.
he was widely known as q staunch Union
man /; and his generosity and good fellow
ship were proverbially traits Of his char
acter. Peace to his ashes.

Our Ithurial spear pricked the toad, and

vomits forth an ola podrida Of nearly two
