ben. Wade ON the Resolutions Of
ISNR

Senator Wade's emphatic reputation of
the heresy Of State sovereignty the other
day, when Reverdy johnson referred to his
antecedents in that regard, is hardly sub
stantiated by his record. The editor of the
National Intelliqencer has been digging
with malicious industry into the Congress
SiondL Globe of 1855, and quotes from the
Honorable Senator of the great sovereign
State of Ohio as follows: [See Appendix
to Congressional Globe, Second Session,
Thirty-third Congress, PIP. 2l3, 2l4, 2l5.l
III am one of those who, not only when
an election is pending, but at all times, be-

tions of 179S aud 1799 Iground myself
upon those resolutions. Who
is to be the Judge, in the last resort, of the
violation of the Constitution of the United
States by the enactment of law? Who is
the final arbiter? The General Govern
ment, or the States in their sovereignty?-
Why, sir, to yield that point, is to yield up
all the rights of the States to protect their
own citizens. and to consolidate this Gov
ernment into miserable despotsm. h
stated that this bill was introduced to pro-
mote and help the execution Of the fugitive
bill. The Senator does not deny it. said
there were States In the Union whose high
est tribunals had adjudged that bill to be
unconstitutional, and that | was one of
those who believed it unconstitutional;
that my State bellevedit 1t unconstitutional; |;
and that, under the old resolutions of 1898
and 1893, a State must not only be the
Judge Of that, but Of the remedy in such a

Living and Wages'in San Fran.
cIACO.

1t may interest the public to know how
people live here and the wages paid tor Ia
Dor. A glance at our markets would indi-
cate that the people generally live well, Such
magnificent bee, es, such excellent mutton
and pork are rarely met with. We likewise
have all sorts of game-such as deer, bear,
squirrels, ducks, quail, ETC., etc.-in abuDd-
ance; while the Bay and ocean furnish an
infinite variety of fish. Vegetables fresh
from the garden can be had in the market
at all seasons of the year, and the Mexican o
and Panama steamers bring up loads Of
huge turtles for the restaurants and hotels.
1t does not cost one large amount OF
money to live here comfortably. The first
class hotels charge SO per day in gold the
second-class houses board people without
roomsfor $S per week; and the third-class
hotels charge from So to So. There is an
other class OF hotels, the lowest, that charge
from SO to 81 per week for board. There Is
vast number of restaurants here, where
the bulk OF unmarried people live. One
can live at these places about as cheap as
one chooses. Many pay no more than 50
per week. We have nearly 300 school teach
eTs mostly women. in tie lublic schools,
getting salaries from $67 to $1l0. Many of
this class board at the restaurants, on ac-
count of cheapness. The great middle-class
OF people nearly all live at the restaurants.
Your fancy stock-broker and gambler live
at the tirst-class hotels, like lords. There
are comparatively few real poor families
in San Francisco. All except the poorest
4, live in good style. s.r
| Wages have been steadily declining here
J during the past two years. and common la
borers do not get as much for their work as
they do in the East. Those who work at
shoveling sand and at similar work get from
$50 to $40 per month. This low rate of
wages is what is driving so many people
from the country. Walters in hotels and
restaurants also get from $25 to $40 per
month and board. 1t costs man with a
family large sum to live here respectfully.
Houses rent at from $24 to 500 per month,
and other expenses in proportion. l have
heard it said, many times recently, that
California is now one of the poorest coun-
triesin the world for poor man to live In,
l am almost inclined to believe it.

A Terrible AccIdent-Six Persons
Drowned. T." .H'lg 80.
IFrom the Cairo Timcs.I


Yesterday evening about half past six.
O. lock, family named Fletcher, consisting
of ten. together with Mexican and anoth-
er individual, name unknown, came down
the Ohio river from near Cache in two
''dugouts." The family consiste of father
mother and eight children, the latter rang
ing in age from four months to twenty
years. AS they neared Cairo the Mexican,
who was rowing the 'dugouts" (Which
were lashed together), attempted to effect
a landing at the bow of the steamer South
erner, which, with the steamer Atlantic,
was lying at the wharfboat OF Houans &
Co, but on approaching the bow of the
Atlantic the "dugouts" were drawn be-
tween the vessels, and one of them was by
the suction drawn under the Atlantic and
the other under the Southerner. The At
lantic was heavily laden, and sat in the
water up to her guards, so that those who
were in the boat which was drawn under
that steamer were drowned, while those in
the other one clung to the wheel and were
rescued by parties from the inside of the
wheelhouse.e Those lost were the father
and grown daughter, one. infant four
months old "a twin child), and little boy
and girl. Those saved were the mother, a
boy, aged eight years, a young girl, aged
twenty years, twin child, four months
old, and the Mexican and his associate.

Sensible Advice,

As President johnson has appealed to the
people, and not to politicians, Democratic, ),
or Republican, the Journal of Commerce T
well says that it would be much bett, for
certain journals, and Republicans general
ly, who stand by Mr.. johnson, TO suspend ,
at once all their antipathy to Copperheads.
as they are Extensively called, to stop all [,
abuse of Democrats as disloyal, and reflect
that the President will fall unsupported ifn
they succeed in preventing the Democrats
from sustaining him. La Congress, with a
out the aid of Democrats, the conservatives
couldno prevent the radicals from passing
all their measures over succession of ve-
toes. In the country at large they are y
probably In a minority of their ownparty, =
for we have tolerably good evidence that
the radicals carry nearly all the Republl-
can Conventions. 1t Is sheer nonsense for
the political wire pullers to claim special
property in Mr.. johnson at such a time as )
this, or to think that he will regard them as.
the only .people" to whom he has appeal
ed for support. .'i''i'' s'N l2lln0o

Interpretation of the meaning of negro suff-
rage. given at a recent meeting in Boston,
will by the time another year rolls around,
form a recognized article in the creed of the
Radicals as it is already darling idea cher
ished by them in secret:
Negro suffrage, said Mr.. Phillips, meant
"a score of negro Congressman sitting in
the House of Representatives. 1t means
colored merchants in New Orleans, and
colored Senators in Columbia. 1t means
negro representatives sharing in making
railroad laws and other laws. 1t meant
social equality, and that was where the
Southerner met the question. Social equali-
ty follows hard on the heel of the ballot
box, and the South knows it, and she re-
sists negro suffrage for what must follow

The following letter published in the
Galveston Neags was addressed to Col.
Thos. Mckinney;
SAN FRANCIsco, Oct. 90, 1865.
Dear Friend A long time has elapsed
since we have heard of each other, and
many terrible sad things have occurred
since we met; let me hope that time has
not altered the kindly feeling that existed
between our families, and that Providence
has not stricken those you love with the
heavy hand that has fallen upon mine.
would like very much to see you all once
more, and think of the old days of quiet in
Texas, days unhappily never to return.
You have heard, I suppose, of the loss of
my dear son Sydney just one year after his
father. He was a grand, noble boy, all I
could wish for my child to be, just eighteen
a day before lost him. God has afflicted
me, dear friend, almost beyond my strength
to bear.
My son Hancock McClung (Clungy) is
now clerk and cashier of the New AImoden
Quicksilver Mines, about seventy five miles
from San Francisco; he gets 500 per
month and helps to SUP me and the lit
tie ones. Maggie, years old next
month, is an inch n am
Grit a born at San Is
.,Sanu nttle EIzzies born after her father
left here, now four years old, are all my
family now. I am teaching school, and
although have been assisted by the South
ern people here, find it difficult to get
along. have thought that, perhaps, you
would kindly take charge of the property of
my children in Texas, and see that it is not
sold for to- would help me a good
deal if couldSs .ssany portion of it adgan-
tageously; but Mr.. Green tells me he thinks
no sales could be made. You will be the
best Judge of that. I have given DR..
Hitchcock a power of attorney to sell for
me, he has the power to appoint you if you
will accept. send you a list of the lands;
Swenson and Armory in Nacogdoches-
you can get all necessary information from
them. I would be glad to hear from you
soon: address Mrs. E. G. Johnston, under
cover to R. w. Heath, San Francisco. Will
you give my kindest love to Mrs. Mckinney,
and accept for yourself the friendly regards
of your old friend

contribute to the luxury of the assistant
commissioner; but the poor devil that has
been decoyed from a comfortable home,
without the pith in his arms to earn his

upon the wayside like the carcass of an ami
NAL, to be buried by the tardy officers of
the corporation.
