In plain terms, and to make the-idea transparently practical, so that he who runs may read, it is supposed that-where there are-two or, more parties, the party that: ‘happens. to bé it power: will always be so sharply watched and counter-. er, that it cannot have “scope and verge enough” to do-much misehef. No doubt, . this is all-true enough, where the people’of a republic are virtuous and intelligent 5. but where the great political motor is the loaves and fishes for the cunning few, and not the . general good for the unsophisticated many, the-rule -will not be found to work well enough to entitle it to enthusiastic worship. For the life of us, we cannot perceive what @special necessity there ‘can _be for the Lincoln, Breckinridge; ; Douglas, and Bell parties in« California. What can we promise ourselves from the electionof either of these -verydistinguished gentlemen-?— Very—tittle;we trow. Itis said that Breckinridge is the candidate of. the disunionists, and that. his first business, after mounting the. presidential throne, will be to follow the lead of Yaneys ‘the Alabania ‘fire éater, and dissdlye the Union. Well, let him! Ifhe is fuol enough, after being elected to an-office worth $25,000 a year, to kick the Union and his big salary to the devil, why, let him do it. California and Oregon, with ‘a great deal of territory west of the Rocky Mountains, can, seé.up for themselves, if the fools, east of that natural Tandmark, choose. to make mince-meat of the. herifage of our Revolutionar, y. Fathers. -But, "$25,000 ‘per year, with the “atin’ and the drink,’ ie ‘as Dr. O'Toole would say, anda . big White house to live in for four years, are ‘matters not so easily and cheerfully kicked tothe devil, , Therefore, we do not believe that Breckinridge, if eleeted, will dissolve the ‘Union, or make any effort to. effect a project so diametrically opposite to his ease end tran. quility. ‘Then, it is said that if ousia: should be elected, the Great South) as a matter of pride, if ne’ oi principle, would be bound to secede ‘from the Union, for the simple-reason that the Great Squth would be humiliated-and de-. based by even tacitly acknowledging the sway of a Republican presidént. Now, who is this Lincoln? “Why, a regular Kentuckian, who was born in a Kentucky log cabin, while his. futher was busy moo ¢ down seme: and old dare-devil spirits in’ his own old bones.— ice that he should be elected, and the Great South should flare up, and Old Abe Lincoln should hurl a score-ofUncle Sam’s regular regiments at their heads—a thing . that his Kentucky birth and breeding. miay well warrant—and then there would be a nice meas for the Chivalry!’ Rather: nicer than that which Old ‘Hickory cooked for the nuwlifying South Carolinians in 1832. It i not pretended that the election ot Douglas will br sak wp the. Union ; for all, but his own especial supporters, deny that he has the least chance of reaching the presidential ehair;-and, therefore, they pretend to, think he can break nothing, unless it may be his’ heart, atid that is generally considered rather a tough piece of human musele. It is very possible that Douglas may not get >a single electoral vote—his opponents all say he wil! not, and they ought=to know—but, should such a strange thing happen, as that he should be found master of the Wiiite House, on the 4th of next March, we will stand ready to wager our best hat—not an extraordinary oné—that the Union will not be dissolved during the whole term of his] pre sideticy. As to Bell—But, then, Bell and Everett are pledged to the Union, par excellence; aid, however you may ring the changes on either or both of ‘them, you-will find the. Bell. sound. And you will find the Uniot sound, tao, whoever may be elected. What we Wish to enforee, after all this scribbling----whith, will think very stupid—is that we, Californians, ought to be better employed than in playing second fiddle to a pareel ef selfish office-seekers, away on the other side of the continent, who eare bo more for us Orour welfare than ‘they’ eare for the health of the grizzly bear in eld Adains’ toological. museuin. & Andrew Hasey, who was sevepely wounitled jr in the Washoe war, by a shot in the -thigh, and wars carried by his friends to this city, isnow, we are happy to say, after much long suffsring, slowly. hut surely recovering. checked, by the ‘party or parties out of pow: .

For the life of us, we cannot perceive what @special necessity there ‘can _be for the Lincoln, Breckinridge; ; Douglas, and Bell parties in« California. What can we promise ourselves from the electionof either of these -verydistinguished gentlemen-?— Very—tittle;we trow. Itis said that Breckinridge is the candidate of. the disunionists, and that. his first business, after mounting the. presidential throne, will be to follow the lead of Yaneys ‘the Alabania ‘fire éater, and dissdlye the Union. Well, let him! Ifhe is fuol enough, after being elected to an-office worth $25,000 a year, to kick the Union and his big salary to the devil, why, let him do it. California and Oregon, with ‘a great deal of territory west of the Rocky Mountains, can, seé.up for themselves, if the fools, east of that natural Tandmark, choose. to make mince-meat of the. herifage of our Revolutionar, y. Fathers. -But, "$25,000 ‘per year, with the “atin’ and the drink,’ ie ‘as Dr. O'Toole would say, anda . big White house to live in for four years, are ‘matters not so easily and cheerfully kicked tothe devil, , Therefore, we do not believe that Breckinridge, if eleeted, will dissolve the ‘Union, or make any effort to. effect a project so diametrically opposite to his ease end tran. quility. ‘Then, it is said that if ousia: should be elected, the Great South) as a matter of pride, if ne’ oi principle, would be bound to secede ‘from the Union, for the simple-reason that the Great Squth would be humiliated-and de-. based by even tacitly acknowledging the sway of a Republican presidént. Now, who is this Lincoln? “Why, a regular Kentuckian, who was born in a Kentucky log cabin, while his. futher was busy moo ¢ down seme: and old dare-devil spirits in’ his own old bones.— ice that he should be elected, and the Great South should flare up, and Old Abe Lincoln should hurl a score-ofUncle Sam’s regular regiments at their heads—a thing . that his Kentucky birth and breeding. miay well warrant—and then there would be a nice meas for the Chivalry!’ Rather: nicer than that which Old ‘Hickory cooked for the nuwlifying South Carolinians in 1832. It i not pretended that the election ot Douglas will br sak wp the. Union ; for all, but his own especial supporters, deny that he has the least chance of reaching the presidential ehair;-and, therefore, they pretend to, think he can break nothing, unless it may be his’ heart, atid that is generally considered rather a tough piece of human musele. It is very possible that Douglas may not get >a single electoral vote—his opponents all say he wil! not, and they ought=to know—but, should such a strange thing happen, as that he should be found master of the Wiiite House, on the 4th of next March, we will stand ready to wager our best hat—not an extraordinary oné—that the Union will not be dissolved during the whole term of his] pre sideticy. As to Bell—But, then, Bell and Everett are pledged to the Union, par excellence; aid, however you may ring the changes on either or both of ‘them, you-will find the. Bell. sound. And you will find the Uniot sound, tao, whoever may be elected. What we Wish to enforee, after all this scribbling----whith, will think very stupid—is that we, Californians, ought to be better employed than in playing second fiddle to a pareel ef selfish office-seekers, away on the other side of the continent, who eare bo more for us Orour welfare than ‘they’ eare for the health of the grizzly bear in eld Adains’ toological. museuin. & Andrew Hasey, who was sevepely wounitled jr in the Washoe war, by a shot in the -thigh, and wars carried by his friends to this city, isnow, we are happy to say, after much long suffsring, slowly. hut surely recovering. checked, by the ‘party or parties out of pow: .
