FATHER HYACINTHE.

The stupendous advance of human
freedoms seen in the fact that Father
Hyacinthe can not only enter Rome
in perfect safety, but that he can
open a series of public conferences in
regard to the "old Catholic" move
ment of which he is a leading expo
nent. Had Luther shown himself
in the Eternal City after posting his
n%inety-fve propositions but short
work would have been made of him.
1t is probable that only his early
death saved him from captivity of
his illustrious friend the Elector of
Saxony. But three centuries have
rolled away since then-centuries of
wondrous progress and development.
The world has moved out of its old
ecclesiastical bondage. The eloquent
tongue and the beautiful spirit of
father Hyacinthe can not fail to cleo
trify the heart of the Catholic Church
from Rome in spite of the vindictive
opposition of the hierarchy. In
opening his commission to the Ro
mans he enumerates five wounds of
Christ. The most serious of all is
the observation of Gods word. He
is equally severe upon the worship
of the Madonna. of the saints, and of
relics. The superstitions of the Ill
tramontanes were severely handled
and the abuses of the Court of Rome
ventilated. One of the most encour-
points in this movement is the
full accord of Father H~yacinthe and
all the Protestant pastors. No
worthier apostle to the Romans
could have been selected. Immense
crowds attend his ministrations.

Our neighbors on the other side of
the Sierra Nevadas are having a
lively time ove the struggle for the
Unlled States Senatorship. The real
issue Is between the Bank of Califor-
MA and the miners. The Bank wants
Sharon. their agent, for Senator, be-
u his election would break up
the Carson Mint, which in~terferes
with the refining business in San
Francisco. The miners want Jones,
because he Is opposed to the Banks
monopoly of the refining business.
The Bank is spending money freely
for Sharon. Jones, having five or
SIX millions of his own, and a very
popular man withal. is beating the
Bank at its W game. The fight is
Interesting, and Jones has the inside
track. As he is by far the best man,
we hope he may win San Fran
cisco Republican.

The Hassler expedition has arrived

The Hassler expedition has arrived

varied weather, from Rio, but there
1T "quarantined." The naturalists
however, dropped nets and hooks
from the ships side, and drew up
many beautiful specimens of fish
and marine animals, and Professor
Agassiz obtained the special favor of
being allowed to land with two COM
panions on the side of the bay op-
posite the town. and examine the hill
on which the fort stands. 1t proves
to consist Of nearly vertical strata of
clay slate, with veins of quartz, all
rounded off in one contour. More
over, IN the drift upon the hill are
granite boulders. These evidences
of the former presence of an ice sheet
moving over these plains of course
gave great pleasure to the party.

PEOPLES GOVERNMENT.

Two great antagonizing forces are
to meet at the coming Presidential
election. and those who think alike
upon them ought to act together.
1t is to be a hand-to-hand political
struggle for the one-man power with
the Grant men, or for popular gov
eminent with the other side. Per-
sonal governmenthas military power,
patronage, 5000 postmasters, and
$4,000 other Federal officers connect
ed with the customs, revenues, lands,
mails, Indians, buildings, etc, to
fight for it. These $1,000 men in
huence ten times as many as their
own numbers. even apart from the
military power, but those who are
against them are a host. They are.
indeed, the solid. honest, thoughtful
people, embracing thousands who
consented to consolidation and CEN
t~ralization during the war, who will
not consent to it in time of peace.
These men have no faith in the Conk-
lings, the Camerons, the Mortons.
the Pomeroys, who lead the Admin
istration in Congress, and none In
the Murphys, Delanos, and Caseys,
who lead ont of Congress. They
see, under present ring rule, extrav-
agance, defalcation, fraud, force, and
manipulation, the palpable degrade
ton of the national reputation, and
these are the questions, with taxa
ton and integrity in public admin
istration. that engross the common
thought. and are the theme of agita-
ton among Liberal Republicans and
the thoughtful people everywhere.
The cry against personal government
is now earnest, general and deter
mined, and is, indeed, almost a life
and death struggle for freedom of
opinion. integrity in office, and pun
ishment for crime.

BETTING ON HI STREETS.-1eSter-
day little knots of persons we're seen
on street corners discussing the
probable result of the Cincinnati Con-
ventiOn. Several bets were offered
and hat to the amoun of a six dollar

be felt; not that feverish impotence
which characterizes an election. but
an earnest longing that such nOmina-
lions should be made as would meet
the views and gain the support of all
liberal minded men. The result of
the Convention is anXiously looked
for.

We are told by one Of our learned
divines that dancing is as worthy of
deep damnation as embracing. Now,
by the gods, this is immense. We
grant fully that to sit in a corner
with some fair beauty, her hand, so
gently warm, so soft, clasped in ours,
her dreamy eyes seeking their souls
depth of love in ours-to clasp that
fairy waist and press the trembling,
throbbing, palpitating form to ones
breass-to watch the lovely hue of
her cheek flushing and paling with
alternate beauty-to listen to soft
murmurs of love, and to kiss the
rich, warm, moist lips that breathe
them-though pleasant, is a little
anti gospel like in its sensation; but,
then, when we are danciag, when we
clasp that same form in the dizzy
maze, and whirl and turn and float
away On clouds of harmony in the
waltz, then every individual hair on
our venerable head rises with the
delectitude of the moment /; we feel
inspired, divine, elevated above all
earth, like going to heaven in a hand
basket!

For GRANT.-A correspondent of
the Sacramento record. writing from
Washington, saws hat while i'll that
city. lately, Governor Bradley eX-
pressed himself for Grant as against
the field. Perhaps so. The bliS>ful
state OF these gentlemen would natur-
ally incline them to each Uther.-IEu-
reka Sentinel.
The above little squib appeared
in the Eureka Sentinel, April 80.
On several occasions. recently. the
Sentinel has made silly and ineffect-
i've thrusts at Governor Bradley. 1t
is unnecessary for us to say a ything
III defense of the Governor, either
politically or of his private walks in
life, as he has established a record
on the Pacific coast that IS admired
by all creeds and complexions--be-
loved by all. The Republican press
of this State, especially, have eulo-
gized him, for the best of reasons.
as they admit, nothing could be
said against him" The real cause
of the venom displayed by Cassidy,
of the Sentinel, is a business trans
action that transpired between them
in Hamilton during the campaign of
1870 in this State. The facts of the
misunderstanding between Governor
Bradley and Cassidy we are not in
possession of, but are willing to VEN
ture the conclusion that our State
Father acted honorably in all his
dealings with the reckless asserting
young editor of the Eureka Sentinel.
Gentlemen are not liable to seek an
opportunity through the columns of
a newspaper to give vent to fancied
personal injustice, but in the case in
question a very broad allowance
should be made.
