They never stop to analyze the whole character of the to find whether the balance of good be in big fayor or not, but like 9 miserable old musket, they go off half cock. to the danger of the public. There are too many of these sorts of beings in our country, and that's never have been selected for the place he fills but for the unthipking aad unteasoning multitude who usually get up.a clap-trap Yeputation and popular furor for political serubs! Who, and what is he t The great contest in which we have been and are still has Andrew:Jobnson done for the cause that should entitle him over all others to the highest honors within the gift of the friends of progress? He suffered for opposition to ¥ebellion.ia Tennessee, it is true; but-not more than hundreds of other men, and not ‘half a® muca as Brownlow and some others 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 . was that he was aslaveholder, @-Southern man, a Democrat, and one of the~State Rights schoul, We preferred {0t-executive, positions those who had shown indications of a better heart; and who were of « totally different order of politicians. The’ TranS$CRI@T is for men whose lives ‘are gudtan® toes that they will-not be false to a principle they have not espoused at the eleventh hour and during the ardor of a popular excitement. If we had our way, we would not elect a man to the Presidency, who had ever subscribed to the doctrine of State Rights ag expounded by the old Democratic party of the South, nof during the neat quarter of a century, ‘The bighest ‘trusts are not tobe commipted tosuch hands Theory is eguinst it, and practice, as exemplified in,-others as well as Andrew Johnson, confirms the theory. Our view of the matter may not do for open and ‘popular acteptanes; but the ftrien:is of freedom all over our national territory should have it in their hearts never to allow any but men whose lives are full of evidenee of sympathy with human freedom to eecupy the high executjve positions in the land.

The Chinese kevp up their heathen practices 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. though many arfived after the ceremonies had closed.
