a wickot — We need not say = wea te as s. The custo ef we at, to place the ticket at the head of column Asour ‘apace is eircumsribed we omit the aro genet od the eee ‘Tae Wan.— seemingly the events of the war are repeating taemselyes.. Lately the * gebels were in tight quartets and _much. Washington, of that the rebels must emanci-. “depreased. ° “They were apparently at the: jast extremity. But,eaddenly, as inthe s of McClefan and Buell, the rebels, have \rown ‘off restraint, and we hear of them a. in Maryland and Pennsylvaria, invest« _ siaet Harpere Ferry, threatning the Capitul, *jngading the State of Kentucky, firing on: ~ steamers above Memphis, aid committing _ other audacious acts not bargained fur by our . generals. What is to be the upshot of this irruption? That the Government and the loyal people regatd it in no serious Tight is plain from the tono of the public journals and the price of gold. Perhaps they regard ° it as the spasm preceding death and give it welcome. Wedo not lok upon it in that light. There is a gfeat deal of vitality yet in the rebel confederacy, enough to last through the present Administration, we fear. Weare approaching wideummer, and as yet 4 the campaign -has not been fruitful of many _— Banks aud Gratuit have dove much, > ut with these exceptions our generals have “" mot been particularly fortunate, At last accounts. both thése generals were closely “Hivesting the only strongholds lett the enemy ‘on the Mississippi. Tf these suceumb to loyal arms.great gains. will be oura at the expenem of great losses to the. confederates. . But Vickaburg and Port Hudson are Gibralters and lard to be taken. They will cost our armies time and blood. The wild pranks of the rebels of late may have a tendency to raise the seige of both places, and postpone “theie fall to a later period. It seems to us that theloyal people of the United States have not even yet awakened to the magnis ude of the contest in every respect. The wisdom of the conscription act is beginning . to be seen, but where ia its execution ? Lag. ging, an every necessary measure has lagged, qinee the commencement of the struggle. “he master mind to create popular sentiment, by boldly taking the lead, is wanting. Mee ¥ we. Wewepapers and orators educate the peo‘ple up toa point and whea the popular sen« timent is made and declared, the Government -acquiesces and moves. It would not be so “if a Napoleon, a Cromwell or a Jacksen were : at the head ofthe nation. An electrical mind would declare the wants ot the country and the people would be fired to supply them, without discussion, right or wrong, and vo ᐀ ‘would Time: be taken by the forelock and ON glorious advatitages gained during the time is now wasted by, thousands of ainda in . . slow discussion befure the proper striking point is teached. “Downey FOR Governor.—Tho signs seem to indicate that the Copperbeads will make an attempt to putJohn G. Downey up for Governor. Weill, it is of no earthly consequence who the nominee of the Copperheads happens to be. Downey is just as "good aman to beat, as one who has nottried ~ his hand in putting the State in debt. Downey will do for forms’ sake. He_will make a __ fair. looking figure-head, and that is all that} is wanted by the Copperhord party thie year. But, how will the “sage of Alameda” like it? — “A thing of beauty is @ joy forever “Our friend, Gen. Allen, of the Washoe Times,-and a tipe qareler. applies thig quotation fo Washoo ladies, properly or “improperly, we cannot say. But when he ascribes the sentiment to the pen of Shelley we reckon he is “Cheating Keats out of the firatline of Endymion. New Porrrarr or Wasninetox.—A new likeness. of Washington, supposed to have been executed during his life-time bya artist, has recently come to hght at “galem, Maca., and is pronounced an excel ~ Jent picture by Josiah Quincy, who knew the . ble obutdele to the restoration of the Union } . religious turn of mind; judging from his oftpeople discuss, vote and declare what oliey shall be purvued, and the government » The laborers cmmplayed by the Govnt at Fort Point, struck for higher Guycanmewr rcene~Tiere are a. great thany professed Unionists who ‘sbe.inse difficulties i in the way of@ re~ n of the Union. To them the freedom intended fue the black by the Presis dent’s ‘emutic?pation proclamation ts 4 subversion ‘of the Constitution and an insuperas on the'old basis. We are sometimes prox voked and sometimes amased by the shallow sophistries we meet in print on th’s interest~ ing point. One writer, Who must be of a repented allusions to the influence of the Als’ mighty inhuman affairs, tells ys solemnly and seriously. that the Stute governments must be wiped out and all-power concentrated at ‘pate their. slaves themselves, to revonstruct the Government on the old base. The President’s proclamation am: unts to nothing, be says, becauce, if the rebellion is put down the Southern States will become members vf the Usion on equal terws with other . States; and must hae the same power as before to sustain or abolish slavery. Thus, must be destroyed to destruy slavery, or if one lives fhe other tiust live alsv. Now we acknowldge toa great rever« ence for the Constitution of our country. It igan emanation from the superlative wisdom of our fathers. Butit exme’ from human hands, and if destecyed canbe replaced by human hands. If it stands in the way of progress and human liberty; if it stands between error and its destroyer, let it share the fate of “all opposersof truth. Butthe Constitution of our a need wot be destroyed that slavery may perish. It was intended asan anti-slavery ducument, ‘and no-one who has familarized bimeelf with the sentiments of the founders of the Government can deny it. The Declaration of Independence breathes the untramaieled spirit of freedom, not as the rebel construes. it, but as progression and liberty would have it. Let the Constitution, then, be made an anti-slavery document as it Was primarily supposed tobe. Congress hss declared that certain States could not become members of the Union except as free States. The power now exists to make such conditions. But itis only necessary, to obviate all question, to have an. explicit clouse in the National Constitutivn prohibiting slavery in all the States Then would our Constitation remain as 1t was intended to be construrd. All its good features would be preserved, and the most that could be said by any civilized mind, would be, that a humane and noble prohibition of evil had been inserted in it. Some wight say the Constitution would not be the old one because it had been added to} but that it would be improved bythe addi. thon few would deny. We cannot see, then, that the Government cannot be reconstruc }ted on essentially ite old basis with its jarring . dis ges ih the machinery of government may be required. Ifso, weare not of those who will sigh for the short breeches; long hose and knee-buckles of our ancestors. The hnman mind 1s learning much. We submit to the arbitrament of progress and good sense. ke Henry Rasche, very nice young man, wealthy, member of the church, &c., ties * been arrested in San Francisco for stealing. The detectives found, io his room, 373 keys of every description imaginable, harness, watches, fiddle strings, sugar. lead pipe and surdines. That's what we call doing a. big business on borrowed capital ! ti" We shall have any quavtity of apples, pears, plums, peaches, &c., this season.— The trees are loaded, so much so, that.al« most every limd requires propping up. EMIGRANT TRAIN.—An ewigrant train arrived in this place yesterday forenoon, all the way from old Missouri. There were about a dozen little cherubims, three or four ‘ladies and fouror five men. They brought quite a number of cows, éxen and horses. fF" The steamer of the 2istinst. took off only 94 passengers $1,200,317 in treasure. New Sraee Live.—W. W.

Rebel reports have it that Banks bis been repulsed . twenty-seven times. Such repulses must) . have been of little consequence. Johnson is marching on Yazoo city, but Grant. is ready for him. It appears that Milroy wae badly whipped at Winchester, losing, three butteries and alarge number of wagons &c.
Berore God and maw we ean and should very and protest against its existence anywhere where hemanity dwells ; but there our rights and duties end.—Cupperhead Exchange. “This is copperhead logic. Itis our duty, -before Gad, to stand on one side of the line the invasion of the North; but our duties end right there. We.must'nt take up arms, and by opposing. end the rebellion. We have an opportunity to end the crime of slavery, but we should'nt do it, but content . , ourselves with: scolding about it! Words, . : not deeds ; noise. not action, is copperhead policy. The writer of the above professes to bea ebristian, yet he believes apparently ‘in scolding gin rather than exterminating it. The serpent is to be talked to rather thun the seed of the womn shall bruise his head. Tue ‘Taina Exp.ainep.—One of our Democratic cotempornries gives the fullowing lucid explanation of Democratic princi» ples. It seems to be eminently worthy-of the sutject. “Hear the mighty expounder of the. Copperhead party : The fact that Demoeratic principles are founded wn self-evident truths, lovking to the individuality of man, in a. state of nature, where there is a personul dependence to protect life and property,« gives the party snipes. such principles great power and y concentration of individualities in a common union, to advance those rivhts, 1a the very essence of strength of the Democratic party, when governed strictly by principle, The editor who wrote that might have ad~ ded—the mind that does not understand and subscribe to this doctrine is a d—d abolitionist and christian. _Divorces.—Within the past eight days no less than eigit divorce cases have been commenced in the Civil Probate’ Court at Virginia City. ——— ARRIVALS AT NATIONAL EXCHANGE.
