His deep, repentant sigh. ; is past; the wanderer rests ide the little mound, \ the gentle gale swells to a blast, irling the leaves around, OE, (Love of OfficeSketch from Ancient History. eer meo must have lived in the days of Governore Winslow and Bradford, if we compare them with the men now upon the stage. Just think a moment of men so averse to holding office that compulsory laws had to be made relating thereto! The authentic record informs us that in 1733 our Puritan Fathere enacted a law requiring that any person who should be elected thereafter to the office of Governor, should pay a fine of teoenty pounds sterling if he would not serve. Strange, indeed, it seems, when we view the scrambling after office that characterizes the present age. Fine them for being unwilling to wear the honors! The trouble now is to fiad a caudidate who is content to remain unchosen. By “hook or crook,” each eligible one is determined to secure the office. It would be a new thing under the sun to see our admiaistration at Washington imposing a fine on those who refase to share political promotion. Their perplexity now is, among the army of office-acekers that invest head quarters, to see who shall be the fortunate individuals. Neither is it trivial perplexity. We imagine that they are often at their ‘wits’ end”’ to know where to bestow the bauble. A host of bands are up to catch it, while only one can ig an old it. Governor Winthrop says in bis journal— “Mr. Edward Wioslow was chosen Governor of Plymouth, Mr. Bradford having been ‘Governor for ten years, and now by importunity having ou off.’ By importunity—pleading, enteeating, beseeching, and praying not to be ected. It becomes almost lau to think of political wire pullers importuning their friends to pass them b and leave them uncursed by office, We imagine that of the hundred who besiege the dispensers of civil honors, a great portion of them have to be im to go home and be content to live in obscurity, for which they are singularly fitted. Thore has surely been a great change io this regard since the days of the Puritans, Nor is it a change for the better. For this insane strife for political distinetion leads to chicanery and fraud of the darkest dye. It has introduced elements of fearfal character into our council halls, To-day portentous evil hangs over nsin murky clouds, in consequence of this insatiate love of honor, Yet not half the eins perpetrated for the sake of office ever come to the public eye. The unwritten history of this department is probably more strange and tragic than the written. Way Fort Pickens was nor Arracken.— According to the Mobile papers of the 17th, a surprise of Fort Pickens had been planned, ¢o take effect on the night of the 12th, but failed in consequence, it is said, of the exposure of the plot to the United States forces. The Mobile Tribune bas the follow. ing account of it: “On Friday Gen. Bragg had all the plans necessary laid for takiog Pickens. Sentinels of Slemmer are said to have been bribed up to hie gates. ‘Nemo,’ alias Mathews, correspondent of the Pensacola Observer, betrayed the plan, informing the fleet and fort, aud frustrated the movement. The fort was reinforced that night. Gen. Bragg’s spy stood upon the beach and counted men as they defiled from the surf boats of the Brooklyn into the fort. It was Officially announced at the headquarters of the Colonel's regiment on Saturday, that Gen. Bragg would have taken Pickens the before, perbaps without the loss of a man or the firing of a gun, had it not been for the treachery of a friend in whom he had confidence for years, (Alluding, no doubt, to Capt. Adame, in command of the fleet.) Mathews was arrested last Saturday, upon suspicion of being a Spy; and sent to Mongomery for investigation.’’ Massacauserrs.—The New York World, of April 22d, says: New York is laggard beside the old Bay State. Almost before we have begun to move, one Massachusetts regiment had forced its through Baltimore to Washington, anothor bad reioforced fortress Monroe, still another had reached and is now holding Abnapolis junction, and two more embarked from our wharves last night.” Burks, the great English Orator and Statesman says: “There are some follies which baffle argument, which go beyond ridicule, and which excite no feeling fa us but disgust.” To this class belongs the attempt to destroy the American Bonstitation. Y : -vis y on vertiser recommends that that city be put immediately in @ state of defense, and says: ie The city can be approached by the Choctaw Pass route, and by the way of Spanish river from above; aud, im fact, can be shelled by ten-ioch Columbiads on board a vessel laying off in Spanish river. right opposite. The best precaution of security against so disastrous oceurrence, then, is to defend the city itself without waiting for the secaring of the passes into the bay. The city can be quickly and effectually defended agaiost a naval force by one battery of Colambiads, eight or tea inch, on Choctaw Point; anda battery of lighter pieces on one of the grass islands from which the Spanish river pass may be commanded. Then we should have a movable battery of effective pieces in the city iteelf.g To rue Point.—Horace Greeley in a letter to a Virginia delegate, puts the following interrogatory: Sour reeolves assert that the Union has no right to use a fortress erected by itself, on ground expressly ceded to and paid for by it, ‘to intimidate a State, or constrain its free action.’”’ Can you really mean this? Suppose Massachusetts or Connecticut had seceded during the war of 1812, and assumed to make peace with the British, do you really believe that the Federal Goveroment would thereby have been laid under obligation to evacuate and surrender its forts ia Boston Harbor and upon Long Island Sound. “Don’r get above your business,’ as the lady said to the shoemaker who was measuring her ankle in order to ascertain the size of her foot. CALL FOR A STATE CONVENTION. Resolutions adopted by the Democratic State Comunittee, May 8, 1861. Wuereas, The Democratic party has ever been a party of fealty to free government and fraternal devotion to the rights of the States of . 9 the Union, and of an unwavering fidelity to the laws, the Constitution, the Union, and the country—ready to maintain them by all proper means and at hy sacrifice : And whereas, The country is now defending itself against a war without justification, or decent excuse; waged —_ it by certain Seceded States—which is manifestly a war for the invasion of our National Capital: for the overthrow of our National Government; the aprennes of the loyal States ; the subjugation of the Union; a war to humble in the dust our National flag; to wrench from the American people their constitutional — of determining for themselves their own policy, foreign and domestic, and to blot them out from the class of the great powers of the world: And whereas such war, so aggressive in its character, and so nT in its purposes, forces upon the countryan issue which can be met but in one way by any people having the common instinct of self-preservation, or worthy of an existence as a nation: Therefore, be it unanimously resolved by this Committee : 1. That at this time, when the country is resisting with all its might a war of invasion and destruction, indifference is impossible to the patriot, and neutrality is cowardice, if not premeditated disloyalty. 2. That the people of California in the past have been most anxious for peace throughout the land, and will hail with joy an honorable adjustment in the future ; at the same time they are, above all things, for the UNION, the Country andthe Flag, against all assailants—no matter who they are, whence they come, or with what power armed. 8. That in this great crisis of the American nation and name of our State will always, as heretofore, faithfully discharge her Constitutional obligations to the Union and the Federal Government, and, as in duty bound, will earnestly sustain the constituted authorities at se ey goo in all measures necessary to defend and protect either against this most unjustifiable and unnatural war. 4. That in the name of the loyal people of California, we demand of the General Government, by all its power, to protect their lives and property on the high seas, between this coast and the Atlantic, from the piratical which already threatens injury, and would inflict destruction on both. 5. Thatall former partisan differences are lost in the present overwhelming crisis; and he who would seek, by reviving them, to distract the people, or to wrest from their honest and patriotic devotion some sordid partisan eer is not true to the country, nor worthy of the name of American citizen. 6. That as Californians, we appeal to the whole people of California without distinction of ye! or reference to partisan issues, to stand with us by our country and our flag, that all may know that the great Union tic Party of California is the overpowering majority of her citizens. 7. That with these views we cordially invite all patriotic men, who hold these sentiments, to meet in Convention at Sacramento, on the Fourth gay of July next, at 12 o’clock, to nominate cahdidates to be supported at the ensuin election; and we recommend in the election o delegates, that the only test be approval of these sesolations and willingness to support the candidates nominated, 8. That the people of each county be requested to meet in convention in their respective counties, upon the 13th day of June next, for the purpose of electing delegates to the Convention, in such manner as they may deem proper.

Just think a moment of men so averse to holding office that compulsory laws had to be made relating thereto! The authentic record informs us that in 1733 our Puritan Fathere enacted a law requiring that any person who should be elected thereafter to the office of Governor, should pay a fine of teoenty pounds sterling if he would not serve. Strange, indeed, it seems, when we view the scrambling after office that characterizes the present age. Fine them for being unwilling to wear the honors! The trouble now is to fiad a caudidate who is content to remain unchosen. By “hook or crook,” each eligible one is determined to secure the office. It would be a new thing under the sun to see our admiaistration at Washington imposing a fine on those who refase to share political promotion. Their perplexity now is, among the army of office-acekers that invest head quarters, to see who shall be the fortunate individuals. Neither is it trivial perplexity. We imagine that they are often at their ‘wits’ end”’ to know where to bestow the bauble. A host of bands are up to catch it, while only one can ig an old it. Governor Winthrop says in bis journal— “Mr. Edward Wioslow was chosen Governor of Plymouth, Mr. Bradford having been ‘Governor for ten years, and now by importunity having ou off.’ By importunity—pleading, enteeating, beseeching, and praying not to be ected. It becomes almost lau to think of political wire pullers importuning their friends to pass them b and leave them uncursed by office, We imagine that of the hundred who besiege the dispensers of civil honors, a great portion of them have to be im to go home and be content to live in obscurity, for which they are singularly fitted. Thore has surely been a great change io this regard since the days of the Puritans, Nor is it a change for the better. For this insane strife for political distinetion leads to chicanery and fraud of the darkest dye. It has introduced elements of fearfal character into our council halls, To-day portentous evil hangs over nsin murky clouds, in consequence of this insatiate love of honor, Yet not half the eins perpetrated for the sake of office ever come to the public eye. The unwritten history of this department is probably more strange and tragic than the written. Way Fort Pickens was nor Arracken.— According to the Mobile papers of the 17th, a surprise of Fort Pickens had been planned, ¢o take effect on the night of the 12th, but failed in consequence, it is said, of the exposure of the plot to the United States forces. The Mobile Tribune bas the follow. ing account of it: “On Friday Gen. Bragg had all the plans necessary laid for takiog Pickens. Sentinels of Slemmer are said to have been bribed up to hie gates. ‘Nemo,’ alias Mathews, correspondent of the Pensacola Observer, betrayed the plan, informing the fleet and fort, aud frustrated the movement. The fort was reinforced that night. Gen. Bragg’s spy stood upon the beach and counted men as they defiled from the surf boats of the Brooklyn into the fort. It was Officially announced at the headquarters of the Colonel's regiment on Saturday, that Gen. Bragg would have taken Pickens the before, perbaps without the loss of a man or the firing of a gun, had it not been for the treachery of a friend in whom he had confidence for years, (Alluding, no doubt, to Capt. Adame, in command of the fleet.) Mathews was arrested last Saturday, upon suspicion of being a Spy; and sent to Mongomery for investigation.’’ Massacauserrs.—The New York World, of April 22d, says: New York is laggard beside the old Bay State. Almost before we have begun to move, one Massachusetts regiment had forced its through Baltimore to Washington, anothor bad reioforced fortress Monroe, still another had reached and is now holding Abnapolis junction, and two more embarked from our wharves last night.” Burks, the great English Orator and Statesman says: “There are some follies which baffle argument, which go beyond ridicule, and which excite no feeling fa us but disgust.” To this class belongs the attempt to destroy the American Bonstitation. Y : -vis y on vertiser recommends that that city be put immediately in @ state of defense, and says: ie The city can be approached by the Choctaw Pass route, and by the way of Spanish river from above; aud, im fact, can be shelled by ten-ioch Columbiads on board a vessel laying off in Spanish river. right opposite. The best precaution of security against so disastrous oceurrence, then, is to defend the city itself without waiting for the secaring of the passes into the bay. The city can be quickly and effectually defended agaiost a naval force by one battery of Colambiads, eight or tea inch, on Choctaw Point; anda battery of lighter pieces on one of the grass islands from which the Spanish river pass may be commanded. Then we should have a movable battery of effective pieces in the city iteelf.g To rue Point.—Horace Greeley in a letter to a Virginia delegate, puts the following interrogatory: Sour reeolves assert that the Union has no right to use a fortress erected by itself, on ground expressly ceded to and paid for by it, ‘to intimidate a State, or constrain its free action.’”’ Can you really mean this? Suppose Massachusetts or Connecticut had seceded during the war of 1812, and assumed to make peace with the British, do you really believe that the Federal Goveroment would thereby have been laid under obligation to evacuate and surrender its forts ia Boston Harbor and upon Long Island Sound. “Don’r get above your business,’ as the lady said to the shoemaker who was measuring her ankle in order to ascertain the size of her foot. CALL FOR A STATE CONVENTION. Resolutions adopted by the Democratic State Comunittee, May 8, 1861. Wuereas, The Democratic party has ever been a party of fealty to free government and fraternal devotion to the rights of the States of . 9 the Union, and of an unwavering fidelity to the laws, the Constitution, the Union, and the country—ready to maintain them by all proper means and at hy sacrifice : And whereas, The country is now defending itself against a war without justification, or decent excuse; waged —_ it by certain Seceded States—which is manifestly a war for the invasion of our National Capital: for the overthrow of our National Government; the aprennes of the loyal States ; the subjugation of the Union; a war to humble in the dust our National flag; to wrench from the American people their constitutional — of determining for themselves their own policy, foreign and domestic, and to blot them out from the class of the great powers of the world: And whereas such war, so aggressive in its character, and so nT in its purposes, forces upon the countryan issue which can be met but in one way by any people having the common instinct of self-preservation, or worthy of an existence as a nation: Therefore, be it unanimously resolved by this Committee : 1. That at this time, when the country is resisting with all its might a war of invasion and destruction, indifference is impossible to the patriot, and neutrality is cowardice, if not premeditated disloyalty. 2. That the people of California in the past have been most anxious for peace throughout the land, and will hail with joy an honorable adjustment in the future ; at the same time they are, above all things, for the UNION, the Country andthe Flag, against all assailants—no matter who they are, whence they come, or with what power armed. 8. That in this great crisis of the American nation and name of our State will always, as heretofore, faithfully discharge her Constitutional obligations to the Union and the Federal Government, and, as in duty bound, will earnestly sustain the constituted authorities at se ey goo in all measures necessary to defend and protect either against this most unjustifiable and unnatural war. 4. That in the name of the loyal people of California, we demand of the General Government, by all its power, to protect their lives and property on the high seas, between this coast and the Atlantic, from the piratical which already threatens injury, and would inflict destruction on both. 5. Thatall former partisan differences are lost in the present overwhelming crisis; and he who would seek, by reviving them, to distract the people, or to wrest from their honest and patriotic devotion some sordid partisan eer is not true to the country, nor worthy of the name of American citizen. 6. That as Californians, we appeal to the whole people of California without distinction of ye! or reference to partisan issues, to stand with us by our country and our flag, that all may know that the great Union tic Party of California is the overpowering majority of her citizens. 7. That with these views we cordially invite all patriotic men, who hold these sentiments, to meet in Convention at Sacramento, on the Fourth gay of July next, at 12 o’clock, to nominate cahdidates to be supported at the ensuin election; and we recommend in the election o delegates, that the only test be approval of these sesolations and willingness to support the candidates nominated, 8. That the people of each county be requested to meet in convention in their respective counties, upon the 13th day of June next, for the purpose of electing delegates to the Convention, in such manner as they may deem proper.
