WEDNESDAY MORNING, MARCHS.
SenaTor LarHsmM.—Tbie individual ar.
tived in California, from Washington, last
-umiier, at the close-of-the last session of . Congress. He came back to his constituenta
‘on that occasion with a dubious character as
w loyal citizen. Report -had it, he gave ex“pression to sentiments prejudicial to our
Government before lexving Washington and
that the same or similar sentiments were re“peated on the steamer while on his way to
~~ California, and even after his landing at San
Francisco. Tt was charged upon him and
\ neither denied or disproved. But the loyal.
ty of the people of the Golden State was
_,Plain and unequivocal, Latham saw it, and
"true to his well knows instincts veered like
4 weather-cock to suif, the popular breeze.
Ho was a Senator of the United States, and
his influence to be courted for the sake of the
country in its emergency. So thought the
people of San Francisco and eo they acted
accordingly. A subscription list was sent
_ wbout to obtain fands to defraythe expenses of
~ -publie-reseption to Senetor Latham: What .
for 1 Did the people of the State admire the .
character of the man? . Was he a representative Union man that they wished to do him
honor ? Not at all—nothing of the kind. The
merchanta of San Franciseo, many of them,
‘when approached for money said, they did
not regard Latham worthy as a Union man of
any demonstration . : his honor. “Nor do I,”
said one of the men seeking subscriptions,
“but we waut to @atter and fix him on our
side.” The same idea of the individual was:
held all over the State. Here, in our streets,
._ we have never heard a person familiar with
the character ‘of Senator Latham. express
‘but one sentiment in regard to his Unionism.
~All parties have said, and said repeatedly,
“that should any event transpire that would
.forebode defeat to the-arma-of the Republic,
Latham would be found taking positien with
~ the cause that promised.sucéess. “This opinion of the man we believe to be universal,
for in numerous conversations on the subject
‘with men from all parts of the State, we
have never “heard a contrary opinion exLatham went on the stump and made eloquent speeches for the Union all over the
State. Probably he meant what he said in
those speeches. Uiionism was in the ascen_ ent. Such was the overwhelming spirit of
the people to sustain the. Government, that’
the little Senator saw that a most powerful
opposition to disunion was raised which promised success. A child and creature of popuJar enthusiasm, he went with the current and
rejoiced in floating along, a puff-ball on the
topmost:-wave. Where is he now ? Thrown
in contact with all sorts of minda at Washington, hearing the sneers and diatribes of
foreigners inimical to our Government, sway~
ed by his prejudices in favor of the doctrines
of Calhoun in,which only is his wind true to
the past; he turns nondesempt in politics,and
\ while affectir'g to be a Union man, gives aid
and comfort to the enemy by a virtual endorsement of the righteousness of the cause
‘of revolt. Thus, the dapper little weathercock intimates Breckinridge ought to-have
been elected President of the United Stites,
votes for retaining Bright and Stark, arrant
traitors, in their seats in a loyal Senate, rec' othmends such doubtful men as Denver and
Shields forimportant military commands, and
reviles the Government for i suppressing from
~ the mails treasonable publications, and suspending the’ Privileges of the writ of habeas
corpus for purposes of self-preservation.
