An Old Citizen OF California.

J. N. Eastwood, q former citizen of
Fort Scott, writing to the Monitor from
San Francisco, says:
The country is overrun with Eastern
people, and there are thousands here
who cannot get employment, who are
suffering now, and will continue to suffer
as long as they remain here. If any of
your friends talk of coming to California
tell them for Gods sake to stay where
they are, unless they have plenty of
money, for this is no country for those
who are strapped. A man here without
money is in a bad fix, and there are
thousands just in that predicament. Any
one having the cash to buy farm or 60
into any other business, l think can do
better here than in Kansas, but a poor
man is out of place in any part of the
State have yet visited, and 1 have been
in the best portion of California-the
Valley of the Sacramento, from Sacra-
mento City to San Francisco, a distance
of nearly one hundred miles, and from
the latter place to San Jose. The price
of land in all this region ranges from
$3.50, to $500 per acre.

TIE LIBERALS.

Since the Schu z banquet in New York,
before his departure for Europe, there is
much talk of starting over the Liberal
movement of 1872. 1t is proposed that
they hold their national convention early,
make nominations for President and
Vice President, and taking advantage of
the apparent dissatisfaction in the Re-
publican party compel it to accept their
ticket as the Democrats did in the last
Presidential campaign. Charles Francis
Adams is suggested as the probable Lib
eral candidate for the Presidency. Of
course it is mere conjecture as to what
course will be pursued by them, but we
have 10 idea that they will ever be
able to capture the Republican as they
did the Democratic party. The indica-
tions now are that the approaching con-
test will be between the Republican
party and the old line Bourbon Democra-
cy, and the Liberals will have to take
their choice between the two, or play
into the hands of the latter by running a
candidate of their own. We believe
however that the Republican party in
their national convention will enunciate
such principles and select as standard
bearers such honest and able men as that
the great majority of the Liberals-who
at heart endorse the principles of the
party-can unite with them.
While we greatly admire many of the
leaders of the Liberals, for they are wise
and good men and have rendered great
service to the country in the past in the
defense OF universal freedom and equal
rights, but we think that the idea of
their being able to keep up an "indepen-
dent" or third party is ridiculous. In
commenting upon the speeches at the
Schurz banquet the New York Post
makes the following sensible remarks:
at was remarkable pretext of some
of the speakers-we refer particularly to
Mr.. Adams-that 1t is possible for a
third party to organize under the title OF
independent" that shall alternately
favor one or the other of the two great
parties which always contend for the su.
premacy. The assumption that a third
party can long exist in such relation to
the other two is CONTRARY to all political
experience. 1t must inevitably yield to
bad control, or modify one of the two no
as to merge in it, or else dwindle into
iusignifcance. II any event its mission
and career are bound to be temporary.
Independence of partisan control on the
part of the individual voter is one thing
but the permanent organization Of a
body of voters to he bid for like goods at
an auction sale is something very 'differ-
emit"

]. S. COULTER, recently foreman of
the Leavenworth Commercial, and an old
resident of that city, died last Monday
night from an over dose of laudanum,
and as he had been expelled from the
Typographical Union and published as a
defaulter it is supposed that the lauda-
mum was taken with the intention of end.
ing life. Some of his friends, however,
claim that he was in the habit of using
laudanum when he felt ill or sad, and
they think he did not commit suicide but
unintentionalIy took an over does. The
Times severely criticises the actions of
the Typographical Union. but all such
questions have two sides. and through the
columns of the appeal the Union give
a good showing of their side.
