It was stated to us, yesterday, that theunfortunate eventa, lately enacted, and now being enacted, inthe-Atlantic-States, have proeiweed unkindly feelings among our fellow cit‘izens, and that petsons of northern and south‘6th titth seem to eonsider it due to the lion_ .0r-0f thon aetal homies to.bate and vilify.each “other. We sincerely hope’ that, if such a state of feeling really doesexist in our hith-OftH peaceful city, that it will soon give place “to a more rational and brotherly class of sen‘timents. ‘The pride or prejudice, that is ~ based on the accident of locality of birth, umaybe tolerated i in‘igrorant savages, but it 5 SOI DN da not in consonance with the intelligence of du divilized peeple, dike the Americans. There gre various. . ‘gircumstances, ‘in the -life and fortunes of every man, over. ‘which he has no.

To attach reproach to an accident, beyond the volition of the individual, is . mot-only unnational,. it is rediculous,. The ‘Indian tribes, that roam the American, proiries, and the wild Arabs that prowl over the Afrigan deserts may be forgiven for inheriting and indulging in tribal and. national -hatred ; but forgiveness can only. be accorded ¥o them on the scoreef their low mentality and the errorieousness of their traditions.— Among the -uncivilized inhabitants of the globe, it too. often happens that i ‘MLands, intersected by a narrow 4 Serres ican varishcks But enlightened and liberal Americans ought not to take lessons of abhorence and enmity from the lower ranks of humanity. "Phat sectional animhosities have grown up ‘between the northern and 80 thern states of our once united Republic ie a truth, a truth that-neither redounds to their honor ‘nor enhances the value of their intelligence. These sectional animosities have already worked out mich of: evil, and will, in all hu-’ man probability, work out much more before they can be made to disappear before the paket in thirty days. pressure of a liberal and generous philosophy” ‘Bat why should these sectional animosities be carried, like articles of personal property, by northern and southern men into the neu‘trel ground of California? Here, where imitmigrants from all the states have thrown their hopes and fortunes into a commen lot, all sectional prejudices imbued in childhood, should disappear, and the brotherly kindiess, naturally incident to community of interesta, take the place of such indefensible folTies. Can not a Californian, Whether of northern or southern birth, lament -the madness that has driven bis eastern brethren to; “the verge of civil war, without hating or in. sulting his neighbor who happens not to be . ’ born in the same quarter of the Republic ‘with himself? Are Californians, who are vaupposed to be the very elite, in mental and physical energy, of tne states whence they emigrated, to. reproduce on the shores of the Pacific the terrible prejudices and hatreds “now tinging the waters of the Atlantic with the blood of brother's shed by brothers ? In the pressure of the awful calamities, now threatening our common country, can we not.soberly analyze the causes which have ~ produced them, and form a calm judgment of their sufficiency or insufficiency, without ‘instituting @rancerous quarrel with a herebirthplace ? _ ane in the history ‘of our young and vigorous atute, when the ‘virtues of prudeace and brotherly kindness ‘were more necessary to its safety, its welfare, and ite tity, than how. ‘There are enough of real miseries besetting us without inventing imaginary ones out of such frivolous inatorial as the irreversible sepident of birth and linenge.
