Gov. Pickering was natural big

him i'll opinion as his enemies, aud
Of course enemies of the country.
He removed McGill from the pos.
ition of his private Secretary, two or
three years ago, because he refused
to vote as a member of the Legisla :
ture. according to his dictation, and
it was found difficult if not impossi-
ble latterly, to procure National ap-
pointmcnts (the principle patronage
of the cxecutive) for any who could
not meet the severest Radicalism.
His Radicalism was inbred; an
Englishman by birth, he held more
than an average proportion of the
antipathies of that people for the in
stitutions of this country. Had he
remained at ONE his sympathies
would naturally. have been with Sc
cession-the same impulse made
him in America, a Federalist, an Alb
olitionis., a Republican, aud finally
a Radical. He believed that the
people of this country never had
governed themselves, and referred to
the six million Of slaves who had no
voice in public affairs as a final proof:
In tho times of the Union party he
held to the dogma that no mam could
he loval who did not endorse the
Chicago platform of 1860. His en-
nifty against Democracy extended to
tho second degree; he not only con-
sidercd all Of their antecedents un-
trustworthy, but suspected whoever
gave credit to such for honesty or
sincerity ofpprposc. He maligned,
prosecuted, ard tried to read out
of the party those who sustained
Senators Nesmith and Harding
as Union men three years ago. 1tis
now said that no Intends to hold on
to his office until his successor is con-
firmed by, the Senate. l do not know
whether this report is founded on
his declaration, or.infcrred as mat
ter of course from his tenacity end
Radicalism. Such would certainly
be the most natural course tor him
to, pursue, as he was never yet known
to give UP anything, Or to neglect to
use anything that was calculated to
iniurc his own party. His removal
has been asked and implored at any
time DUNG the last three years By
the conservative element, on the
ground that to keep him in Office
was to encourage and countenancc
his persistent efforts to reduce the
Union party to Republican limits.
The only difficulty that l could ever
understand was the horror inspirsd
at Washington by the idea Of having
him back there unProvided for. IL
was well understood that his spruint-
