TUESDAY, ‘JAN, , 924. 1 1863. anions Se ideal ai dodindiod to Stockton.

Tt may be wéll for oar Legislature to _pass Tesolutions declaring our fealty to:the Union, and that we will not organize a Pacific: republic or monarehy.The question Tins béén mooted by men who were sent to represent.us, and should be set at rest. But. to go-farthor than this—to magisterially decide between the North and the South—to cast ¢ondemnation upon either—to “pat our oar-into the tronbled: distant waters for the purpose of rowing the beat of either pec: . tion, is iot merely in bad taste, it is inische“véous. “As might be expected, the debate at -onee took a.party turn. Senators embraced the opportunity to make party harrangues, and deal damnation against théir political oped, at once assumed the shape of a party dodge, where some pitiful advantage was to be gained ; and -in this spirit the proposed “mediators” between others are exhibiting the want of harmony among themselves.— ____ ‘Strip ‘these resolutions ‘of all party favorit-4 . ism—all, denunciation of -North.or, South— let them simply declare that California now aa over, is loyal to w Union of these states, and extend the hand of cordial fellowship to all of any section who desite to pregetve the Union and Constitution as they are, and our state wilkindeed send:an olive branch to the Hast: that will be acceptible, and have all the effect:for good that we can secure. But, let the. veice of mean,party spirit speak through the Legislature, irtitating the already sensitive nerves of public: feeling, in other states, and-we shall be looked upon as unscrupulous aid officios mS a ' The resolutions of r.

If any resolutions are deemed necessary, we trust these will be passed, pure and simple. ‘The sitbstitute resolutions are offensive to the sentiment of a large portion of this State, will he deemed fale in fact iy the-half of the.

If eo they port to their masters, the power and wealth . of the United States, as much as if they had . could not fail to see and re-. able. condition. ae of the money. of the state could not be betteremployed than in the payment of a theroughly.competent_seientific commission to investigate, and report'. in plain English, this whole matter, and then print and circulate the report by thousands. A geological survey of the state is not of more importance, or more legitimate. Convince the people that certain vices, or certain excitements, tend directly to insanity, and the same benefit. will be produced by such education in diminishing the number of insane patients for the state asylum, as other: aducation prodaces in lessening the population of state. prisons. A valuable class of books addressed to the young sprung up a dozen years ogo, in other. states, and did a vast service to the community. Their place in this state seems to be usurped by quack advertisements, of questionable morality, and unquestionable tendency. Then, the: effect of the desertion of ‘legitimate and regular. -pusuits, to chase delusive prospects of sudden wealth—the undoubted fact that many cases of insanity result from crushed hopes thus oxéited; and that-one of the ¢hances a man assumes in embarking in such speculations is that_he may lose his reason, should. be clearly presented, illustrated fully from the hiatory of cases at the asylum, ‘We' doubt not that such a work, ably prepared and widely distributed, would do great good by prevénting insanity, and save the state much expenditure in the care of the insane. Is not the-matter worthy the thought and action of our Legislature ? we > A Voice FROM ARKANSAS.—In these times of secession, and “Independent Republic movements, an evidence of attachment to our Union from any quarter, is truly . 2 refreshing. Hspecially is it so, when coming from a section or state whieh has heretofure been characterized for blood-thirstyness: and hot-headed revenge, rather than for cdel_re. ent. It is therefore with no ordinary pleasure that we chronicle the following, copied from a letter received recontly by a citizen of our place, showing the strong Union sentiment.in_ Arkansas, and the almost: absolute want of sympathy among her citizens,’ with the headlong course adie ane Carolina: “A few days sitce, after ¥ iis of posters &c., calling the citizens together, to initiate such theastires as might ‘neeessary to reserve the rights of the. h, some three undred assembled at Camden, in pursuance to the call. ‘The assemblage was -addresged by Col. Lyon, who, when he had concluded, put a proposition something like this: ‘All who fayor secession, and sympathise with . South Carolina, and are in faver-of erganizing companies of minute men to assist necessary; arerequested to march, to ie right—and all those who-are willing to continue in the Union, and submit to the Presi. deney of Abe: ran Ban ‘to the left.’ ees the rex , near three as in number, Prato moved to the side of {the Union.

There are many loop-holes for one to creep out of who is reported to have said so and so. But when a letter appears in print, coming direct from the gentleman’s pen, , why the record is not only conclusive, t frequently damning. No doubt some such thought a8 that occurred to the honorable gent, and the resolutions went to the table. It may be possible that. this thing of having to do their ‘definations in good solid writing may be’ the means of.leasening the . number—if not entirely killmg—several of the aspirants. I would say something about the Speaker, Burnell, very complimentary, had I the space favor. pened I will say this however; it is the inion, that after he ia over the newness position, and learns by a little experience to manage this popular, but noisy, branch of the Legislature, he will make a. good enough Speaker.The weather hereabouts is dreadfully dull and dismal, though I believe that business is As for amusements,.we have the Maxtinetti Troupe and two Melodeons in full blast, besides any quantity of musical soireesdown in der lager shops.
