SUNDAY, DEC'R 10, 1865,
THe SENATORIAL Question. —The eleetien of ‘@ Senator to succeed McDougal, is
now the leading tepic among the people,
although seme politicians seem to ignore,
entirely, the fact that the people have aoy‘thing to do with the matter. Our readers
will remember that about the close of the
primary contests in the Union party of this
State, Governor Low, efter having] entered the lists as a candidate for the Senate,
aad being defeated in almost every county,
on the eve of the election in San Francisco,
published a letter*in which he pretended to
. withdraw his name from: the contest. It
was charged then that the Governor was
not actaated by honest motives, and the
charge was veheniently denied by Low's
friends. The fact that the letter was pub-lished after the defeat of Low before the
people, was net calculated te convince any
one that claims of honesty, integrity, and a
desire for harmony. made in the letter, were
well grounded. Immediately upon the publication of Low’s letter, everywhere that
_ his friénds stood the least show of success,
they bolted the party aud made a fight outside of the organization. Since the meeting of the Legislature, it has become spparent that the friends of Low are determined,
in spite of the will of the Union party expressed in the primaries, and afterwards
confirmed by. the people in the General
election, to.make Low the successor of Mc’
Dougal. We cannot believe.they will suc-.
céed, for we think that the members’ of the
Legislature will not disregard the will of
the people in this respect. They are sent
to Sacramento to represent the people, and
certainly will net, entirely, ignore the expressed wishes of their constituents.
It is well known that the leading issue
in the primary contests of the Union party,
prior to the general election, was the Senatorial question, and that the popular verdict
was adverse to Governor Low, Decency
‘would dictate, under the circumstances,
that he should abandon the contest, but he
* has decided otherwise, and it becomes the
duty of the Legislature to see to it that the
people of the State are not overridden by
the selfish little knot of corrupt politicians who are determined to rule the State. Cal{
ifornia has had enough of this accursed bargain and sale business. She now wants a
Senator who can stand as a man among his
fellows, independent of all factions and
“¢liques, and who is capable of guarding her
interests. Low has been in Congress, and
was tliere far behind every member of the
California delegatiun. Not a single measure iatroduced or carried through reeeived
any assistance from him. Without the qualificatiuns for the position of a Senator, and
the tool of unprincipled politicians, what
would become of the interests of the State
with Low for her Senator ?
THe GoveRNon’s ; MessaGe.—The Gov,
eraot’s bi-ennial message has been sent to
the Legislature. He shows. the financial
condition of the State, to be excellent, and
that the receipts have been in excess of the,}.
expenditures. He gives a report of progress
upon the State Capitol buildings, and rec
ommends a committee for the thorough
examination of the affairs of the Insane
Asylum. The management of the State
prison ho reports improved. He quotes
from statistics of the Superintendent of
Public Instruction, and reeommends the
continuation of the half mill State tax. and
that the minimum of county tax, be inereased
te three dollar fur eneh child. The Gov.
ernor thinks that the culture of rive and
sorghum, would give “profitable -employment to the Asiatic populativa which is
tending to our shores.” He urges the em
tablichment of a State University, and says
a registry law is demanded by ‘‘every con
sideration of public policy.” He suggests
an apportionment by the State, fora national
monument te Lincoln, and also suggests a
State moaument for Gea. Wrigh. He
favors negro suffrage as the shortest way of
ending military rule 10 the rebel States,
and treate Jéhnson’s policy as an experiment .
which may fail.

Waren.—The, Eureka habe Canal Co’,

Tue Tipe Tugnen.—Some months ago
". the departures from our’ const were greatly
in exeess of the arrivals, and by several
journals it .was predicted that the State
would be almost depopulated. The tide
has now changed, and the excess is on the
other side. Now we suppose the “wise
ones” will be equally alarmed at the prospectof sich an increase of population; as
the State-will be unable te sustain. In the
Spring and Summer, when water is scarce,
the miners of this State take occasion to
visit their homes in the East, and at. that
season many from -all the mining counties
leave the State. Inthe Winter, when the
time for work comes, they return to this
State. After the war closed, many also desired to go and see the fields of battle, and
a few went with the purpose of remaining
in the East. We hear of a dozen old, residents of this county who are expected to return within a month to this coast. The opportunity afforded during the dry season:to
visit old homes and friends was taken advantage of, and they aretiow on their way
‘back, and expect to arrive in time to reap
the golden harvest from the mines during
the ‘ present season.
steamers are many old Californians, who in
the East find no Place like their adopted
State. The tide of our population ebbs and
. lows, but-in neither is there any cause fo :
alarm.
