has Andrew:Jobnson done for the cause that

who had never helped on the Calhoun idea
of Government till it became the received
doctrine of a dominant party that plunged
‘the nation in civil war, to waintain or destroy it. In casting about for wen to preside over the destinies of the nation, and to
tance, though oftentimes they are overlooked, und the fact of an aspirant being found
mént, is ajl thatis required. The TRASSCRIPT, it will be remembered, was not
favorable tothe nomination of Andrew Jobnson. His speeches during a long period of
public life never showed a sentence of sympathy for the oppressed}. not one word in .

as regularly in this land of their sojourn as
in theirown, The Marysville Appeal of the
Sth says:
“Yesterday our Chinese pepeiatinn made
their annual visit to the dead—feeding the
dead, as the ‘Melican men’ call it. ‘The two
parties—the two rival coinpanies—sent out
delegations well-luden with commissary
stores, and the usual ceremonies over the
graves where their dead companions were
buried were performed. It js an old custom,
and we Christians cannot ‘see it.’ .We
suppose, however, it isall right. Wesee no
“harm in the” practiée, and so long as the
Celvstials believe that their dead friends are
hungry, let them be fed. There wasa large
attendance ints sth agi at the cemetery.

had closed. It had been customary with the
mourners, till last year, to Jeave theic roast
