Show TE HENRY LAL'DAMl'S. The political canvass in Caiitbmiu has given birth to the following new version of the Tc Deum addressed to Gov. Haight, which we clip from the San'Francisco Alta: Wo praise thee, oh Henry! We acknowledge thco to bo sound on "The Departure." All Democracy doth worship thee, the everlasting railroad smasher. To thco all Lotteries do cry aloud: Mercantile Library and all the powers therein. To fliee the C. P. R. U. Company continually do cry, "Bully, bully, art thou, oh ! Anti-Subsidy." Sacramento and Amador are full ol the majesty of thy glory. The golorius company of Senators and Assemblymen praise thee. The goodly fellowship of Theatrical Mauagers praise thoo. The noble army of Lager Beer Jerkcrs praise thee. The "great unwashed throughout all California do acknowledge thee. The Father of vacillations innumerable, innumer-able, thine adorable, true and only policy. Also, Adjutant General Carneau, the Comforter. Thou art tho King of "Subsidy Splitters," oh Henry ! Thou art tho everlasting son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Haight, When thou lookest upon the nomination nomina-tion for Governor, thou didst humble thyself to run against Gorhaui. When thou hadst overcome tho sharpness of election, thou didst open the "Gubernatorial Kitchen" to all believers.
