HISTORT llllO DEMOCRATIC CD= . ,Those who are attached. to, the Democratic partymay well fehl a Warm glow of pride and satisfaction when, they . look , taak to the glori . oile history-of that organiiation; which; com mencing its career,with the existanee of our government, has administered it so ,triumph antly and brilliantly, with but brief intervals, ever tuace.: There•are but few things which inspire more pleasurable emotions than happy memories of the past; and. that organization draseociation which has an honorable history appeals most strongly to the confidence and feelings of men. The annals of our country, for the last sixty or seventy years, are thickly strewed with the story of the continued and repeated triumphs of the Democratic "party, and of its illustrious representative men over the oppoeition,which has been arrayed against it in so many forms and phases. The sympa thies of youth, and of all who admire great nese and glory, cannot but be enlisted in favor of that party which has given to the nation ten or eleven of its fifteen Presidents ; which has persistently shaped its national policy ; 47hich has originated and carried every great measure that has tended to the aggrandize ment and honor of the country; which has always been intensely patriotic and American in its feelings; which has never once struck the flag of its organization, but i which has successively beaten and overwhelmed half a dozen different parties and combinations that have been arrayed against it, and which has, over and over again, been endorsed as the only party that was fit to rule and shape the destinies of America. When it commenced its remarkable career of triumph, the Union consisted of but thir then States, and, under its auspices, against a tremendous opposition, nineteen new States have been added to its national constellation It acquired an empire from France awl another from Mexico; it hr,ught a separate republic (Texas) into the Union ; won the golden s ail of California :Lnd, by these immense a eg o i s i sitions, it made our boundary extend from one great ocean of the world to the other—for the Atlantic v.uslie- , its eastern and the Pacific its western shore. ft looks forward to the time whemerilla, the Queen of the Antilles and the gent of tip , Roil l ie idled t o our bridetm when destiny,"snall carry A no•riell, in-titu , ions and the American flag int , . re , lms that at tao•-ent lie far bm.,,r1 , 1 our !,,eitie.d t -ion.

When its great leaders were laid in their graves it was disbanded by its adherents its a failure. as they hastened to connect themselves with other organizations. With the career of the two parties which rose upon its ruin. the so called "American" and "Republican," our readers are familiar, and we think all will agree that they have conferred no glory upon the country and reflected no lustre upon their organizations. -Defeat and disaster have thus far attended them, although, in their infancy, they are characterized by the dotage of age, and it requires no seer to predict that in a short time they will follow their successors to the tomb of an unregretted past, and,that a new organization will pike their •place to eon front and to be subdued in turn by the Demo cracy. Amid all these Mutations and changes the latter hav,p preserved unbroken their organi zation and principles. They have seen, sue eeseively, the fall of "Federal," "National," "Republican," "Anti-Masonic," "Whig," and they are about to• witness the complete col lapseof their Republican American opponents. Their flag, which was first given to the breeze by Jefferson, and which was carried through his administration and that of Madison and Monroe—a long period of twenty four years— and which was temporarily lowered by the younger Adams, was again taken up to win fresh victories by the hero and patriot Jacks in =which has acquired new and recent glories by Van Buren, Tyler, Pdlk, Pierce and Bo chanan, our later chief >magi , trates,—still yeaves in triumph over the national halls in Washington. With the exception of the brief and inglorious administration of John Q Adams, the ephemeral reign of Harrison, and the weak Taylor-Fillmore dynasty, the Demo cracy have been in power, uninterrupted,since 1801. So long a tenure of popular favor, in a repuhliean country, extended to one orgaii zation, is most remarkable, and conelu-ively proves that its administration - must have been signally successful and satisfactory~in every respect, arrd reflects the highest honor upon it. By the past we ,judge of the future, and its adherents have a right to expect the cont . ' dance of the men of the present time, by pointing to what it has already done for glory and prosperity of the country. Like a glorious old tree, which has withstood the storms of centuries, and which continues to plant its roots deeper and deeper in the earth, and be come more firmly fixed by the lapse of time, so the Democracy, by its long and prosperous reign, have gained in the public confidence, and are now more impregnable to assault than ever in their past history.—Cineinnuti En quirer. LONGEST RAILROAD IN THE WM:MD.—TiIe election of J. Edgar Thompson, E-;ig , to the Presidency of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad Compaq, is a virtual con solidation of that road with the Pennsylvania Railroad, of which he has been President fur several years. He has thus become the chief officer and malinger of the longest continuous line of railroad in the world, namely, from the city of Philadelphia to the city of Chicago, 818 miles. About sixty miles of the road next to Chicago is still unfinished, but it will probably be completed by the first of Novem; bet.. Meantime the hoe is in complete opera ' tion by the use of another road for that di, tance. Mr. Thompson has a very high repu tation as a railroad engineer and manager, and is probably one of toe hest in the country. —Harrisburg Telegr ph. .41,.

Loco, August 2, 1858. To-day our election takes place. Everybody, it would seem, Is taking more or•less interest In it. Every poll Is surrounded with large and exciting crowds, but everything Is progressing in an orderly manner. The result will not be known until to-morrow, as tickets are being considerably scratched, rendering them more difficult to count. We still entertain the belief that Barrett, the Democratic can didate for Congress, will carry the district—this is a sure thing, unless the Know Nothings desert their ticket and vote for Blair, which Is more than likely that they will de. However, the day will reveal all, and as all eyes are now turned to Missouri, we will hereafter give to your readers the why and wherefore of the result, until then—wait for the wagon On Saturday the whole city was illuminated—three nplendid torch light processions. The Know Nothings turned out in large numbers—principally boys, and made a grand display. The Black Republicans were not so nu merous, but made up in the Dutch huzzas for B-1-a i-r. We don't think there were a dozen American citizens in the procession. The National Democracy turned out by thousands, and their meeting is acknowledged by all to bare been as large again as either of the others. We never did see so much enthusiasm and good feeling as existed in the crowd of several acres which surrounded the speakers' stand. Thr , crowd was so large that it was necessary to divide thew in f.,ctr different apartments; and speaking wan going on from four different stands. If that gathering is any indication of the result, Dick Barrett is the next Congressman.

The house was then pillaged, the servants and two dragomen assassinated, and the archives of the Consulate were burnt. While this horrible scene was going On, similar crimes were committed at the French Consulate. rids Consul, also attacked by a hand of fanatics who penetrated into the house by the windows, fell mortally wounded by several sabre curs. His wife was killed by a dagger thrust in her breast, after having defended herself courageously, killed the murderer of her husband and wounded several others. her daughter, 18 years old, succeeded in escaping by..,.a secret door. In the next room were the chancellor of the Consulate and his servant. The latter is a Musselman, an uld soldier who formerly served in e. battalion of native Algerines. These two men and consul's young daughter defended themselves so heroically that the murderers retreated for a moment; they soon returned to the charge, but this time employed a stratagem. A Hadramite, an acquaintance of the chancellor's, approached him, and said, " Come out—come oui with me ; I wish to save you from certain death." .Confiding in these promises, the brace young man quitted the room : he was instantly struck with a poioard, which only slightly wounded him in the arm. Knocked down by the blow, his throat was seized by the assassin, and he was on the point of perishing, when the consul's daughter threw herself on the assassin and hit him so deeply in the head that he was forced t o l e t g o. Thereupon another of these wretches attacked the courageous young girl, and gave her a sabre cut across the face. She fell senseless, but the chancellor, who had sprung to his feet, inflicted a blow on the last assassin. Meanwhile the chancellor's servant strugg!ing, with admirable energy against these miscreants, killed three of them, wounded several others, and so succeeded iu covering the flight of the consul's daughter, of the chancellor and of a servant, who have all arrived this evening, in company of the brave soldier, at the residence of the consul general of France, in Alexandria. GOOD NEWS FROM TIIE SOUTEL—The Savan nab (Ga.) Republican says : " The country is for the most part, in easy circumstances, and the crops of all kinds promised an abun dant yield—a combination of circumstances that never fails to inspire every department of trade with confidence and activity. The planter and farmer being prosperous, and in a condition to meet all their engagemtnts, the merchants can lay in their stocks with confi donee, and enter upon their fall speculations without fear of disappointment, either in their sales or collections. Upon a general survey of the field, we think we can fee indications of increased prosperity in every branch of trade and industry." PORTER, THE ALLEGED OO ,i RGER.—The arrest LATEN.

In reply to a demand from Lord Lyndhurst that the British and American correspondence on the " right'nf search" question should he published. Lord Malmesbury replied that arrangements calculated to settle the question were in progress. Baron Rothschild, the Jewish M. P. for the city of London, hasltaken his seat in the House of Comm- ns He was first elected by his fellow citizens nearly 'eleven years ago.— Nothing was easier, at that time or any subse quent time, than for the Commons to have passed a resolution—as they actually had done, fifteen years before. in the case of Mr. Pease, a Quaker—authorizing him to take his seat by taking an oath or solemn declaration, a the case might be, as binding upon his con science as the usual Parliamentary oath is presumed to be upon Christian members. At that time, L din Russell, elected as Roth child's colleague by Rothsehild's money and influence, was Prime Minister, with a large majority in the Commons. Had he proposed such a resolution, Would have been carried, as a matter of eirse, and Rothschild would then have tal:en his seat. Rut Lord John, who realizes Tom Moore's deserintion of " n little with a very little soul," disdained such a simple and practical way of doing what was right. He introduced an Act of Parliament authorizing, the " on the true faith of a Chris tion" oath to be dispensed with, in the case of the Jews, as it had already been in that of Quakers. His measure passed the Commons, and was rejected by the Lords. This same farce was repeated almost every year during the following ten years, until, at last, the Lords gave in, and passed a clumsy Bill which gives all that the Jews required. Lord John must bays a front of hra , 4si if. having actually kept Rothschild Mit of his seat for sn many years, he cold meet him in the Commons without a blush.

Transcript gives an account of the death, by hydrophobia, of a very interesting child, the dauohter of Mr. Henry S. Win der, of (1 iu nt II twleys, between eight and nine years of age, on Friday morn ing of last week. Here are the particulars: On Tuesday of las: week Sarah Ellen returned from school and complained of feel ing ill, so touch so that she did not attend on the followitio• day, although still able to be about the house. Thursday she was no better, and her parents, thinking she was threatened with the typhoid fever, sent for Dr. Murphy. The doctor arrived there about two o'clock in the afternoon, and found her sitting upon the sofa, by the side of her mother, to all oppearances in perfect health ; her pulse, how ever, was very irregular, with an occasional wildness in the eyes, and it was not long before she gate a sudden start, and pla.iing her hand upcoi her throat, exclaimed : " troubles me to hreaibe, tn••ther." Minute inquiries were now iostituted, when the fact was elicited which had not been previously - thought of, that some five weeks since she had been bitten by a d •mesticated cat on the out side of the foot. A glass of water:was ordered to be brought her, when the sight of it at once tivew her into terrible convulsions. This was at - two o'clock in the afternoon, and was the first intimation had by her distracted parents of the terrible disease with which their daughter was afflicted. Her agony and strug gles in the spasms were awful to behold, and in one of them she bit her mother severely in the shoulder, and at one time scratched the father badly in the hand. • In her spasm•-die efforts the saliva from tier mouth was at times ejected across the room, and the only relief experienced was by the use of chloroform. which. in the end, seemed to lose all efficacy. She remained all the time in perfect possession of her faculties, and at three o'clock on Fri day morning, exactly twelve hours from the attack of the first spasm, her spirit departed to the God who gave it. A HORRID AFFAIR.—A terrible tragedy was enacted at Deer Creek, California, on the .'2d ult Dr. McMurtha and his brother owned it quartz vein there, which'was "jumped" by twelve men. who entered a tunnel on the vein, barricaded the mouth of it with pine logs, and declared they would kill the first man who should throw any dirt in the mouth of the tunnel. Dr. MeMurtha threw a shovel full of dirt into the tunnel, forthwith one of the jumpers shot him dead with a rifle. There. upon the surviving brother drew his revolver and fired all the charges, then took the revolver from the body of his dead brother and fired all its charges among the twelve. The result was that four were killed hnd seven wounded. Mr. McMurtha then gave himself up to the officers of the law, and after an examination he was held to have acted justifiably and he was discharged.
