will however venture to say that We have
known Mr.. Jewett very we'll for nearly
twenty years and have always found him
an honest man and excellent citizen, but
he Is just about as fit for the position of
Governor OF California as he is for Chief
Justice Of the United States and all
know he would not make much OF an out

we can see the busy fingers of George

The good people OF the good city Of

activity manifested in, and expected de-
velopmen,s Of, the Eagle and Washes

four miles north and west Of the city.
There have recently been made, within

By some kilograms Published in the
San Francisco Alta, we learn the sad in
telligsnce that the carpet-baS Senators
from the South are Respondent. Are
they indeed. They must fear that de-
tective is on their track, and that they
will have to account for some OF their
misdoings We should imagine that in
suoh contingency such fellows as Clay
ton and Dorsey. Of Arkansas; West, Of
Louisiana; Spencer. Of Alabama, and
one or two others, would shake in their
boots. II they get the fate which they
richly merit, they will be more than des.
pondent, they will be sitting on the
stool OF repentance in the cool and Sc
cure retirement provided for the safe
keeping Of the guilty. The telegraph
says that these men say that il Pierre
point. the new Attorney G enerhl, adopts
a conservative course, that there will not
be a Southern Republican vote in the
Electoral College of 1876. To which it
may be replied. that il Pierrepoint does
adopt the course pursued by his prede-
cessor, there will not be Republican
vote 10 that College from either the
South or the North. The existence Of
the party as powerful and successful
political organization, depends upon the
administration during the next twenty
months carrying out just. fair
and equitable line OF policy to-
ward the Southern States. The
late election in New Hampshire and
Connecticut told that tale. In New
Hampshire, where the Republicans re.
pudiated the Force bill and the system Of
organized robbery of which the South
has been the victim, there they were par
TALLY successful, and showed nearly, if
not quite as much. strength az their OPP
ponents. In Connecticut, where the
Force bill. Gag Law and third term were
swallowed at gulp, they in consequence
suffered most complete and overwhelm-
ing defeat. The people are tired of dis
cord and hatred and want piece and
amity. They are also tired Of backing
up set Of robbers like Clayton aud his
gang of freebooters. That this is true,
the results Of the elections are proof. and
still further evidences is afforded by the
testimony of w. D. Kelley OF Pennsyl-
vania, true blue, out and out, dyed in the
wool Republican. He has just returned
from visit to the South and he says
that the outrages that have SO long been
the capital stock Of every partizan adj.
ministration journal. have little or no
foundation in fact, for which no voted at
the last session Of Congress. was entirely
unnecessary, and he regrets having given
his support to that measure. Taking oil
these things together. we do not wonder
that Clayton and his accomplices are
respondent. We trust that that gloomy
franc Of mind will continue until they
are kicked out Of the places in which
they have dishonored tho country
and disgraced themselves, with as little
ceremony as the President showed Mr..
Commissioner Douglass.

The Baltimore Ame5eqn says: Twenty or
thirty yean ago the proprietors of semin-
aries for young ladies affected to believe
that plain food was ESSENTIAL to the mental
and bodily health of the pupil, under their
care, and that the less they ate the more
rapidly they would improve in their stud
les. The table fare was simply wretched !;
meat and butter once . day, bread and mo-
lasses for breakfast, and the nearest ap-
proach to nothing At all for tea that the
ceremony of sitting down to the table would
permit of. In order that the evening meal
might not be an absolute blank, there wore
few hard biscuits handed around, which
the young ladies nibbled at, while thew
thought of "home" and the luxuriant
abundance of mothers table" The TO
bust daughters from the country, the daush-
ters of opulent farmers, never were con-
WINGED that this compulsory fasting vas
beneficial to the intellectual or physical
constitution. In fact they always believed
the whole starvation Theory was invented
for Ae pecuniary benefit Of the own
ers Of the seminaries, and that the ANU
menfs by which it was sustained had NO
better foundation than the selfsh greed of
those who made money By defr,uding pu-
pills of their daily bread. A. boarding
chools multiplied, the stazvs&ioa theorys
began to give way. The common sense OF

ture. and was elected 10 the United States
Senate in ls56. Then the good in the msn,
the sterling stuff that had made him al
wars first in his own rough circle, came
out. He was a diamond in the rough.
Life at Washington polished him. He
speedily became known az a determined
friend Of freedom in California and in the
Territories. He broke with his fellow
Senator, Gwin, an intense pro-siayeryite,
who tried to take California into the Con-
federacy, who sided with it himself, who
fed to Macmillan when he saw that the
lost cause was really lost, and who became
the Duke OF Sonora under the Mexican
Empire, and was resurrected from some
unknown abyss to cheer for Greeley in
1872. Gwin was an ardent pro-slavery
man. Broderick We'd with Trambull in
his scom Of the Kansss-Nebraska fraud.
He was prescribed by the Democratic party
at the North, and hated by it at the South.
Yet at home his strength grew every day.
California could not be captured unless
Broderick was silsnced. But while he
lived, he would speak. Ii was therefore
decided, 80 the story runs, to kill him.
His enemies picked out Judge David s.
Terry, Of San Frensisco, noted dueiist,
as the murderer. Terry challenged him.
To decline was deemed impossible at
least Broderick thought 80. He knew
and said that he was to be deliberately
murdered, for he was wholly unskilied in
the use of pistols, while Terry was crack
sho:. But he accepted the challenge, fixed
the time, met his opponent, fired a harm
less shot, and fell mortally wounded.
" They have killed me,n he gasped out
with his dying breath, 'for opposing the
extension of slavery" The words were
painted on the flags borne in the Lincoln
campaign a year afterwards. They and
the memory Of the dead man saved Cali
fornia TO the Union. Except in this way,
his murder was unavenged. Teny's trial
was postponed, re-postponed, finally drop
ped. Terry himself perished with the Con-
federacy.
1t seems to have been the fate Of Broder-
ick to be forgotten. If funeral orations
could have saved him from oblivion, he
would have been famouf lac annals OF
tie Senate contain no more eloquent speech
than that in which Seward sketched the
genius of history placing Broderick With
Winthrop, Raleigh, Baltimore and Penn,
"the founders of our States" And in San
Francisco, in q square crowded with peo-
pie, before the open bier of Broderick, Ed
ward d. Baker, Senator, General, martyr
himself long since forgotten,-thrilled the
whole country with his passionate encom-
iums on the murdered man. 1t was all in
vain. He was forgotten. An unseemly
struggle over his alleged will has been going
on since 1859, and its final decision by the
