When the Mexican war , threw t alilornla into our hand, and the rumored discoveries of gold excited such Interest among Americans on the Pacific Coast, M r.

Tlie war w a t ndetl nearly ten year ago, and if the South is not yet at K-ace. there I no hojie that Gen. Grant can pacify it. If the crimson stories were true, there wuM U; no argument in them.

The word of Mr. Gmley, which were a stumbling block to the patriots of the Custom-house when they were uttiTcd, are now the common thought of everr one. The nollev of hate ami wrath will never win another elec tion. We leave it to thoe Republicans w ho now see the truth of the text we have quoted, to pay the proper tribute of tardy honor to the goodiie they maligned and the wisdom they derided.
