[Prom the North American of yesterday.] We have mournful tidings from California, by the overland mail. If we may believe the tele gram, the duel into which Senator Broderick was driven with such bloodthirsty malignity, and which he resolutely refused during the whole of the ex cited canvass in that State, was fought after the close of the polls, and resulted in ius death. A previous despatch represented Terry, Lie antago nist, as mortally wounded; but the present report, while saying nothing of that—and therefore leaving it to be inferred that It Is false—tells ns that Broderick was killed, or rather that be died of his wounds In a few hours. We fear that this is likely to prove too true. And what a picture of political morals it discloses to our gaze in this age of en lightenment and reason, and in this country of free speech and untrammelled debate! Mere is a Senator of the United States hunted down as though he were a wild beast, to be snapped at by every bound, and shot at by evenly owner of a bullet. Not that be ruined the fair fame of man, woman, or child; not that he robbed, cheated, stabbed, or wronged any one beyond for giveness; not that be was an outlaw beyond the reach of justice or legal punishment—not at all ; but that ho had merely, in open debate, before hie constituents, where all public mon meet to give an account of their acts, canvassed and commented upon the sayings and doings of the party In oppo sition to him, and more particularly the politicians by whom it was led. Up to the beginning of this eanvass he had borne in silence contumely and reproach, compared with which all that we know here of political slander must be regarded es child's play. Such was the effect of this, that when Mr. Broderick was elected to the Senate, and came on to take his seat, men were surprised to find him a docent, good-natured, kind, and courteous gentleman of dignified bear ing, and not the low vagabond he had been repre sented. During the reign of the last vigilance committee In San Pranelsco, the ferocity of his enemies went to each lengths that they vaguely hinted that he was to be among the banished, along with murderers, gamblers, and the like. The Domocratio party in California has long been divided into t wo Motions, one called the "chivalry," led by politieians from the slaveholding. States, like Gwin and Terry, and the other by Northern men, each as Broderick and MoKibbin. Had the Northern mon all stood together they would have far outnumbered their opponents, but they were led astray by Weller and others, who were leagued with Grim for personal aggrandizement. This feud at length assumed a deadly personal character, and wasprosecuted as a war for and against the election of Broderick to the Senate. But events carried it beyond the Senatorial election, and still maintained its personal features. Broderick and MeSibbin became anti-Leconipton mon, following the lead of Senator Douglas, and then the whole three of the Government patronage was added to the faction of the chivalry." Against this array Broderick and Moßibbin attempted to make head. They took the stump and canvassed the State, speaking everywhere. It had been so tong said, that Broderick was too illiterate to speak in public, that his appearance wee a great surprise. and his statements caused a sensation. Ile defended him. self and• attacked his adversaries with infinite spirit. Challenges to mortal combat were thrust upon him by every prominent politinian of the chivalry faction, but ho gave them distinctly to know that, first, ho would not fight at all until after the election, and, second, that he would fight no understrapper—in fact, none but a man of equal rank, Mr. win, the desperate intriguer who was at the bottom of all this, does not seem to have ap peared in it. The object of the chivalry was plainly to get rid of a United States Senator whose votes and course did not suit them, and they could not afford to peril against him a Senator whose votes and course were exactly to their mind. PHILADELPHIA At length the man was found whose eliallenge was from an equal. The Senator could not refuse a Judge of the Supremo Court, and, as the result, he has - been killed, while Senator 4win escapee. Sven among them who recognise the personal ap peal to arms, this cannot he regarded as a legiti mate duel at all. It Is murder by a base band of oonspirators, whose appropriate tool was found in Judge Terry. No man of honor and position is hound to run sash a gauntlet so this. Against any one man whom he has attacked he may be amena ble to the code, but against a whole gang, whose evident political object is to get rid of his rote iu the Senate, while they save their own Senator, who is his proper antagonist, he ought not to be required to go out and jeopardize his life. But Broderick was a hero. Ito had dared to fight for his political convictions against every odds. Re had fought the battle of life with a courage and bravely seldom witnessed, and now be has closed hie career in a mortal oonflict, in whioh he vainly sought to satisfy his pursuers. If the people of California do not rlso with indignation at this cruel homicide, they aro unworthy to be ranked with free States. Mr. B r ode r i c k Career. (From the New York Tniame.l o. DrOCIOrIVR '^free—r".......- Waahington in December, 1818 or 1819, conse quently, at the time of his death, was about forty or forty-one years of age. He was of Irish parentage. His father was a etone-eutter, a well to-do man, who had the contract for supplying stone for building the present Capitol, and worked upon the pillars of the ehamber in which his son afterward sat. When David was about five or six years old, the family removed to this city, where ho was at once sent to school, in which he acquired en ordinaryeducation. So soon &she was oldenough be was bound an apprentice to a stone-cutter, with whom he served hie time. (Whether his fa thee was then alive is not definitely known.) During the period of Mr. B.'s apprenticeship, NJ or terward, ho wee considered a potion of strong men tal characteristics, as well as of great physical strength nod activity, hall on these accounts hie wee made the umpire in all disputes that arose among his colaborers and associates. Soon after at taining the age of manhood, he was ()leafed engi neer of Howard Fire Engine Company, No. :36. While occupying that position, Ito was much fought after by politicians, and he thus became We rested in the political questions of the day, and soon acquired groat Influence in the Ninth ward, whore he became a reangnisel power in the Demoeratio party. Ills loading affinities were then, Siokies, Hart. Baskin, Brady, and others of that class of politicians. Ilispolitical influence rapidly increased to such an extent, that under the Adini nistt Fitton of Tyler, when Mr. Van Goss was col lector of customs in this city, Mr. 13. acquired the control tied disposition of certain places in the Custom House, and was instrumental In securing the Naval Agency for Samuel Suydam. Many other lending politicians, who obtained fat berths and prominent positions at that time, owe thole fortune to the influence of Mr. B. in their favor. In 1811, Mr. Broderick was a candidate for Con geese in the Fifth district, in opposition to F A . Tallmudge. In order to defeat Mr. Broderick, a eabet was set un tiot, which nominated John Blood good as a third candidate. Tho latter gut 333 votes --just sufficient to secure the election of Mr. Tall midge. In 1819, becoming dissatisfied with the condition of pedalos in this city, and feeling some what soured by his own disappointments, Mr. Bro. &wick left New York for California. Cu his or rival there, he immediately commenced the busb ores, in connection with Mr. Frederick D. Koh ler, of smelting and assaying gold. After a brief residence in California, he war selected as a delegate to the Convention which drew trp the original Constitution of the State, and in which body he was instrumental in having the leading features of our State Constitution adopted. His course on that occasion was signally bitter in opposition to lotteries, banking, fie. Shortly afterward, and while extensively engaged in business. ho retired, in order to servo a short term of two years in the State Senate, where the integrity of his conduct was always recognised by his most hitter opponents. while it was the pride of his friends that no vote of his could he found on re• cord on the ride where there was any money dis tributed. No political speculators ever wanted to get a measure through the Legislature, that they did not first say to themselves. r' How shall we overcome. Broderick ?" And such was his influence and popularity, that he was chosen President of the Senate, and, at the con clusion of his term, on the resignation of the Go.. vcreor. ho was Acting Governor of the State. In 1852, ho conceived the idea of putting himself in nomination before the Legislature of the State for I United States Senator, to fill an expected vacancy by Senator (twin being called to the Cabinet of President Pierce, and the Legislature wee can. cussed in his behalf with eatisfactory results, but the vacancy (lid not occur. During the Le gislative session of 1853. the friends of Mr. B. canvassed that body. with a stew to having him then elected to succeed Senator Gain, assuming the principle, then novel, and for the first time put forth, that a Legislature, under the Constitution, is not precluded from electing their United States Senators at any time in advance of the vacancy. After n hitter and protracted struggle, And a con. test which aroused and embittered the passions and animosities of the two rival factions of the Democratic party in the State, the Legislature ad journed, having done but little business beside at tending td this quarrel, leaving Mr. B. with a ma jority of the House In his favor, and only ens vote hacking in the Senate. Thus, with an aggregate majority In the Legislature sufficient to ()loot him, he was left without power, the deficient vote in the Senate preventing him from getting n joint ballot. 'rho eubsidence of this storm left bitter nnd rankling feuds. which Tested through Mr. Bre &wick's career, and resulted in his death. The effort to elect Mr. B. was renewed the fol lowing year (1855), but no choke ilea melte, there being, two or three candidates in the field beside Senator Groin and Mr. Bbut in 1S:al the latter succeeded by each overwhelming strength, that he was enabled to dictate Wlin PllOl3lll be his associate in the Senate for the short term. In this respect Mr. B. made the singular selection of the man whom he most tinted, and for whom he had less respect than any other man in the world—which was 1/r. Mein; and the motive which governed Mr. B. one A profound knowledge of retaliation and revenge Dr. Groin having always de nounced him most unsparingly at Washington as a matt of neither ability nor character. Mr. 11 con ceived the idea of forcing Dr. Gain to solicit his election front the man he hail protemled to under value, and to acknowledge the obligation in writing, and to bind himself in that written acknowledg ment to abandon the friends who had always sus tained hint, by foregoing the patronage which was (WO to his position. Ia accordance with this arrangement or obliga tion entered into by Dr. Orrin, he published a card to the effect that ho Ives tired of serving the in terests of professed friends, wearing out his life for them t and that he therefore desired to wash his hands of all patronage, and. ehcerfully conceded it all to his associate. So soon fle Dr, Owin saw on what terms he had NEW YORK TWO CENTS. recovered a Neat in the Senate. and the disgrace to which he would be subjected if his position became known, he repeittedly sent entreaties to Mr. Brode rick to obtain poiseasion of the letter or acknow ledgment in question, but a copy of that paper bad been taken, and shortly after found its way into print, when the feud between Gwin and Bro derick became more bitter and irreconcilable. They arrived from California together, and on go ing to Washington, Mr. B. soon discovered that the Administration had been poisoned against him, and refused to recognise the proposed appoint ment of his friends to °Moe, although backed by the strength of California, but gave preference to the suggestions and wishes of Dr. twin. Under these' circumstances, Mr. B broke off all terms with the Administration, and when the Lecomp ton Constitution came up, he was found a shalom opponent of that measure. In social life Mr. Broderick was one of the most exemplary men that could be found in any coml. try. No clergyman, no philanthropist, however proud on the score of morality, could feel more so than Mr. B. He was never known to enter &gam bling den or house of ill-fame; and in business transactions or personal dealings his word was relied on as implicitly as though ho had entered into the most solemn written obligations for their performance. Per these traits of character Mr. B. was a great favorite, and innong no class of per sons was be stronger than with the elergymen of all denominations, who looked upon him as a strict ly moral man. • Mr. Broderick leaves no relative behind. • THE CHARLESTON CONVENTION.—The Louisville Courser, a staunch Administration and anti.Don glas organ, thus reveals, In advance, the scheme by which it expects the South to control the Charles. ton Presidential Convention : " Delegates have already been appointed by seve ral of the Northern States to the Charleston Con vention. The preferpnoes of the delegations are not certainly known, bet enough Is known to show that the North will notbw a nail for any aspirant. From Several Northern States there will be two sets of delegates. New York, Pennsylvania, and Illinois, will probably send double delegations These delegations will be excluded from the Con vention until their claims are examined and de termined on, and in the meantime the delegation from the Southern States having a decided majori ty, will probably go to work, pass the two-thirds rule,' and thereby virtually control the Conven tion." DOUGLAS IN ATIFANNAs.—Thus speaks the Fort Smith Iferdd, a life-long Democratic paper, and (as tho Memphis Appeal expresses it) "as true to the South us the truest can be :" "We have of late been greeted by many of oar old citizens, not political aspirants, but good old farmers and mechanics, who do their own reading and thinking—those who have watched the course of Judge Douglas., in Congress and out of it. We have frequently heard them remark that they would rather vote for Stephen A. Douglas than any other man in the United States for President. It Is truly surprising how much interest there is felt among the people, even out here, in regard to the election of President in 1860. Quite a number who were determined to read 11.1 out of the Democratio party twelve months ago, because we defended Douglas on all occasions, are now wining to admit that they beiere Mr. Douglas will receive the nomination of the Democratic party at the Charles. ton Convention in April or May next." Our. JACKSON A SCROOLVASTER,—Who would have thought it? It is nevertheless true that Old Hickory began bis career as a teacher of an "Old Field School." in South Carolina, and in that vo cation earned the money which supported him while ho studied law. This is one among the many curious and unexpseted facts presented in Mr. Portion's forthcoming life of then. Jackson. the first volume of which is now in the hands of the printer. Many eminent Americans bare begun life as teachers, but we hardly expected to Led the inaotaitable hero of New Orleans added to the HO. —X. 0. Bulletin. DOCOLAS.—The doctrine of Douglas was the doe trine of the South when the Kansas-Nebraska bill was passed. and though we prefer the doctrine of "protection," we cannot call Douglas untrue to our section for adhering to " popular sovereignty." Aro rfalk Argot, lion. Benj. F. Butler, the Democratic candidate itir Governor in Massachusetts, thus defines his position on the slavery question in his letter of ac• eeptanee. It trill be seen that he repudiates the doctrine of the National Administration: - • • "Upon the question of slavery, which appears to control the political action of a majority in Maasachnsetts in preference to objects affecting their more immediate interests, I believe I can be equally explicit. having no opinions to conceal. In my opinion, slavery exists nowhere by natural right, but only becauxe, of some positive enact ment, embodied either in the Constitution or eta tote law of the community in which It is found. "Again, I believe it to be the essential element of the Democratic oreed, as promulgated at Cincin nati, in 18Z,G, as well as plainly deducible from the doctrines of the fathers of the Republic,' one to which every living Democratic statesman hat.at some period, pledged hinuelj; that the people of every community, who associate themselves upon the territory of the United States. and obtain tuff,- °tent numbers to be organised into a Territorial Onvernment, hove the right by their /Tr dation, ander the Constitution, to manage estrtheir do mestic institutions in their awn way; or, in other words, to determine for themselves the status' of society under which they will live, and that this ri*rontinttes until the formation of such Ter- Then, slaves being tieTe ' ldliitll' Supreme Court, In the States where slavery exists by local law, are protected as such in the Terri tories, as far as In the several States, giving the master the right to hold them while there ts no Territorial legislation on the subject, with the further tight to remove them within a reasonable time after legislation is had, that divests him of his property by a law declaring them free. This would put the rights of the South upon their true constitutional basis, leaving the public domain fairly open to competition and emigra tion; permitting the question of 'bond or free' to he settled by the natural laws of interest and profit, or by the veirry.forined community, at soon as it ss of ability to settle any other ques tion of governmental policy; retaining in the slaveholder, who had brought his property upon the public laud, under the protection of the Con stitution, the right to take :t away, if in danger of being dire:red of it by Territorial legislation. More than this the 'South ought not to ask; snore than this the North ought not to grant. Of course, from the reasoning, no one would bold that by carrying his sieve into unoccupied and unor ganized territory, the master waives his right to him, so that by this act ha would be emancipated. Upon thi, subject. I deein the public mind to be substantially settled is the full determination to hare slavery to be dealt with by Me laws of the verrral localities where it has its existence The New York Tribune denies that Colonel Pik moat has written a letter declining the nomina tion of the Republican party for the Presidency in IMO. It says: "We cannot say that Colonel Fremont either ex pects or desires to be the Republican candidate for President in 1550; but we ran my, very confident ly, that ho will not decline the nomination until it shall hare been offered him. We do not /now that he would accept it, if offered ; but we have good reason for our belief that be would.

Thu Cincinnati Enquirer thus replies to Mr. Eat let : "The above is very true, but it dove not change the aspect of the fact that the next Presidential contest is to be decided in the Northern and West ern States. There will be the brunt nml heat of the combat. The Southern Dcmncrate will have no difficulty in giving all their electoral votes to the candidate emmo.sed to the Republicans. In the North, however, where the sectional fires are kindled, the strif , will be hot and desperate. The Southern Stales cannot elect a President alone.

CALIFORNIA FRESS. Issued 13ismi-Nonthir in time for the California ateamera. Trip to Mount Vernon. [For The Press.) A few weeks mince I made a Hying visit from thi great "City of Magnificent Distances" to the shades and trunshinea of Mont Vernon. The sun shone forth in all hie gorgeous pride, and the face of the eottntry looked beautiful along that entire mute, so often traversed by the great and good Washington. Approaching the spot so dear to the true Ame rican heart, the scenery ii extremely grand and beautiful, and in almost every direction, as far as the eye can reach upon the bosom of the lovely Potomac. one is delighted at the objects around, rendered doubly attractive by the noble associa tions from which the lofty name of our country's Father is inseparable. As I advanced towards the venerable mansion— now being temporarily rescued from decay—l was inspired with the truest feelings of pleasure end gratification with the thought that the women of our country had, by their patriotic exertions, so nearly transferred this richest of boons to their own sacred keeping; and now, since the property itself wan almost paid for, our countrymen within not many years will have the satisfaction of seeing this noble spot, hallowed above alt others upon cur broad domain, beautified and restored in all its original fair proportions. This, from time to time, as the ladies continue their generous appeals, rea lizing the other odd $200,000 or .3300.00 yet want ed, will unquestionably be done, and a pilgrimage to our chieftain's some will in future years indeed be a bright and glowing page in one's own history. I should judge it would take something of an amount to keep up Mount Vernon with that dignity pthich would be boooming and proper, even after it is fully improved and restored.

In view of much absurd twaddle pronounced against Mr. Washington, from whom Mlu Cun ningham purchases this property, what, I ask. would the ladles now sell Mount Vernon for? Think you that a million of the best virgin gold Australia or California could p roducts - world purchase that " modest mansion” track again t Or a dozen such 'patseee as Blenheim, with all its " pomp and circumstance," be taken in exchana No, not a bit of it. Even though "John Chaich ill's dog kennel" (according to Mr. Everett's de scription of the Duke of Marlborough's estate) did cost as much as the pittance given by the Mount Vernon Association, think you all additional cor reeponding grandeur would measure a tithe of the value of Washington's home, nestling so nolrie• teodingly amid these lofty and hematite] trees s Assuredly not..

I should judge the mansion wan some 123 or 130 feet above the water's edge, and, mounting still higher to the cupola, one pleasure is still in creased, not only by the glorious panorama pre tented to the eye, but the feeling which crowds itself upon you, that you are standing in the very pressure of our country's Hero , who, with spy glass in hand, from the same spot, sixty yeas' ago, gauci upon these self-same scenes and objects which now so gladden the heart of the visitor.
