NUMDBB ONE Socialism is the combination of all for the ire/* /are 0/ eac/i. That is its essence when stripped of every thing adventitious, foreign and extrinsic to it, and viewed apart from all such accompani* ments os arise solely from the peculiarities, char* acter, customs, religion, &c., &c., ol the people by whom it is adopted. Socialism is that system of philosophy which endeavors to increase the ener* gy, virtue and happiness of every community, by **banding its. members together in their interests and labors, that whatever there is ol goodness and power in each may be reflected upon all; and the ■ combined life and influence of all concentrated and converged upon'each,eo that every individual may command for bis own development and happiness the entire resources,'wisdom and power of the whole community. Socialism seeks to bring men - together in such a way that they may ■ be of the greatest use to each other. Jt aims to bring into play all the instrumentalities, the means* and in* fluences, that are required' to draw out the fullest efficiency; talent .and virtue of every man, woman and child, and turn them in' full tide to augment the general welfare ;, and . on the. other hand, it aeeka to concentrate impartially and without stint 5..-. - tbs general resources to provide for the ample ed* ucation and healthy human development of each individual. It recognises the great- fact, that the members of the social body,iike-the members of thehuman body, are all mutually dependant; that each having a distinct and individual character, has also a distinct function which can not be dis'* ... charged .properly except in concert with the re* ciprocal and varied- functions of the other mem* , .bare—and-that for this purpose the community must-be a united one. Socialism is nothing new. It ia an eternal truth and fact of human life, now brought, in God’s providence, more prominently before men’s attention, only that it may be more thoroughly understood and fittingly applied. All .in. our present civilization that is promotive of human happiness is owing to the Socialism it contains, which is potent for good only as far os it coincides with, the outward'manifestation of a collective and practical Christianity ; all its vice and misery are the results of its anti social and ‘ anti-christian features. Wherever cities, States, nations, combine their energies for the common welfare, there you find Socialism; and the greater t the number of objects for which such combination is entered upon, and the more perfect and free the organization and- gradation of functions for its accomplishment, the purer is the Socialism.. Thus, when the people of any city combine their means to erect public water works, so that by a small contribution ofhis time or money each citizen, by the united effort of all* is saved the great cost and trouble of-digging. bis own well, or hauling his own water—this is Socialism as far as it goes.— And the same; also, when they combine to give - themselves .gas light—when they build and endow a free Bchool- for everyjward—or a university for the entire city—or when they unitedly erect a public hospital—a. public library, public baths, public reading rooms—asylums for their poor, their blind or insane—a bouse of refuge for their - young offenders—or when they elect and support from-n common fund their public officers, religious teachers; &c. All this is Socialism—the “com* binatioh of all. for the welfare of each.” It is ■: Socialism, too, when the people of a whole State, instead of a city, through' their representatives, construct public works, as canals, railroads—State free schbols—State colleges—State charitable, scientific; or other institutions—or make provision and appropriation of the State funds for the: sup* port of its various Courts, its State and County officers., Thus every kind of united action among many individuals, whether directed to the estab* lisbment of a government, or supplying a city with common .facilities for health or businoss; is Socialism, since the combined energies of all em* ploy the common resources and means for the common welfare., In fact, the opponents of So* cialism are pretty much in the predicament of the than who found to his surprise that he bad been Speaking prose all his life without knowing it, for they will, find that they have unconsciously been ... bom and raised in the very midst of the dreadful thing itself, and owe to it whatever education, rea finement or happiness they possess. . .But why this great stir and fuss about Social* ism now-a-days, if we .have been all along under its influence? Answer—Because those who have recognized , the great principle of Socialism, viz, combination of all for the w'elfsre of each, and who see what great resalts it has effected, and is yet capable of effecting, ore not content with its piecemeal, fragmentary, here a little and 1 there a little, application; but wish to push it ns far as it will go; to apply it to every thing to which it can be applied; to aU the labors, wants, interests of. men, that can be embraced by it. Toillustrate our meaning: Suppose the people of Pittsburgh, or Allegheny, or any of our cities, t^tecome, .deeply impressed with the truth of So* cialism, and convinced that by intelligent combi nation anddirection of their united powers to all possible ohjecta of coinmon interest, they would effecteal|y„or in great measure, secure themselves fcom 'disease; vice, ignorance and poverty; and were therefore met to deliberate upon their course of action, this woutd probably shape itself some* what as follows: ... . Fiht, It wonld be voted nnanimonsly that the City Water works, the City Gas works, the City Fkee Schools, &c., were not a hundredth port of what they still required; and first and foremost thsy wonld consider the matter of their common health, as far as this was influenced by the dense packing together of their dwellings and shops; and -forthwith their compact squares, narrow' streets, sloppy alleys, filthy, compressed court* yards, encircled by bouses of all shapes and sizes; some towering skyward, excluding air and son* ehjnefrpm. others rising but a few feet above the - ground, though sunk perhaps deeper below it— all this jumble and crowding wonld .be voted an , unbearable'nuisance. The cry would be, « more . ate—more rooin—more light.” The dingy blocks of. riiotley houses.would come down, and in-their place,would arise a series of. magnificent unitary dwellings or lodging hotels, with salts of private rooms for families and single persons, together witte private and public parlors, dining balls, festal sffioons for social gatherings, &c., &e., ail lighted, warmed and ventilated on the most approved and economical scientific principles; while the domes tic labors of cooking, washing, ironing, &c., bang . petfoimied for all at once, on a large scale; would admit of e;thousand. applications ; of tabor-saving machinery, any one ol which is now out of the question. All this ia alrcady done in our mam* moth hotels, where several hundred persons are duly fed from a single kitchen, warmed by a single furnace, and kept in clean linen by a single,well contrived laundress. Why .permanent lodgers should not-be provided for-in like manner ns trnn. sient ones, no better, reason can be given, except thafiTu’difficnirfor people to deviate from es*; tabtished routine, no matter how fraught with j V ' ■ •• ■■■■. ■' J ,*> worry, expense and discomforts of every kind— such os is our present system of housekeeping, with its.incessant trials of patience and temper between mistress and servants—or between im prisoned children and quiet-loving-old folks—or with its yearly moving, the heavy rents, the ill constructed houses, the eternal marketing for each separate family, and -a. thousand other etceteras, not to speak of the great waste of productive labor, and absence of economy of space and means, when there must be two or three hundred servants for each hundred families, a hundred little kitchens, a hundred separate tables-: laid thrice .a day, &c., &c., when a few of. each would suffice for a combined population. These newly con* structed dwellings would, of course, not be- con* tignous. They, would stretch away from each other.... The city .Would expand—would occupy the country, and find itself, at last, embosomed in parks, gardens, pleasure grounds and extensive farms, which woutd afford every facility for the new modes of industry introduced by Socialism ; of which more in the next article.

New Hampshire has again proved true to herself, as wo were sare she would. *At the Democratic State Convention, just held, Samuel Dinsmoor, the present Governor,.waanominated for reteleclion by a vote 0r202 to 3, In place ol Bov. Mr. Atwood, who was previously nominated, but who, it turned out, bad been dallying With the abolitionists. A loiter to tho' Boston Post, says:— “ There is but one sentiment among the democra cy from every section of the State, and that is,-that they will have no union with disuoionists, nod can*’ not be sold over to frec-soilism. Dinsmoor will bo chosen triumphantly by tho people.” The feeling in Now Hampshire is the same that prevails among ninevtentha ofthotruo democracy of the nation. It will hnvo no entangling alliances with agitators or nnllifiers at tho south. It will abide by the old landmarks of the party, that have guided it successfully through many.a contest here tofore, and will carry it triumphantly through the campaign of 1862. We clip the following from the Cincinnati Enqni rer. It makes a positive statement, which, unless authoritatively contradicted, so suppose must be taken for fact.

V - Horrible Catastrophe—Explosion or the Steam Ferry-boot St, Louts. ; A slip from the Louisville Democrat contains tho particulars of tho Into explosion or a boitor on one of .the St* Louis ferry boats, andwhicb resulted so dis* astro usly. Of all tho crew belonging to tho boat but two aur« vivo, the 3d engineer, John Coop, and Mr. D. Waud, the, collector. Mr. Wabd’s statement Is thus given by the Si. Louis Union t : X® 8l v orfa y raonung [Sunday, 23d uhsj about half* past eleven o’clock, the ferry boat St. Zotrfi had received her passengers on beard,rand was about to 1 leave on her return to the Illinois 1 sldo. The upper J a w of tho piston head was in some way out of repair, an “ **Jf* Benson, the first engineer, was engaged on m jlji rung for starting; and Mr. Warn bad looaened the Btcrn rope and haa called to the fireman to let go the other hoc holding the boat to tho flats.-The fireman not hearing or neglecting the order, Mr. Ward advanced to do it himself, and had proceeded about six yards, when the larboard boiler burst, with.a thundering crash, and in tho next mo« ment the fore part of-the cabin, With the entire ma* chinery, was a wrecked mass, white above it whirl ed a dense volume of bissiog steam which, however, did not escape forward, judging from tho appearanco of the bodies, .but ascended. - .-i ? Mr. Word describes tho scone as dreadful, and wc may well imagine it. Mangled bodies and dead hor 808 were strewed all around, some partly covered with the. ruins. A remale, we presumo Theresa Roy an, was lying g&sping by the starboard guards, and near her the starboard boiler, which bad crushed ahorse. This female, Mr. Ward carried onshore to tho hospital. A large numbor of boys, as is uoual* ly the case, particularly on Sunday; wero on tho fiats and oo tW boat, some of whom were killed, and many injured; the latter, however, not so se verely as to prevent a precipitate rotreau One body carried over tho .levee, direct‘to tho houses, was found to havo the arms and legs- broken, and fright* ful injuries on the head. Tho explosion with the cs» cape of tho steam was heard in the city as bigh as Fourteenth street, and a few minutes sufficed to crowd the levee, and every available point of sight with a countless throng of terrified faces. As soon as the,immediate terrible excitement granted to men the reason to act, a guard of the police was station* cd on the wrecked boat; to keep the crowd off, aod to allow bereaved friends to claim (be dead. This was scarcely less fearful than the sight of the man« glcd bodies. Grief in every phase was present, but in none more sorrowful to witness than in tho griof of Q mother for her son. Mr. Paul Trundloy, a son of Capt Trundley, acting as second engineer, had bat a few weeks since returned from California, and had a friend to dme with him, with whom he had pro* jeeted;several visits during the afternoon. Ho had scarcely finished dressing, when called from homo m Iliinoittown, to attend (he boat over for bis last trip thatday, andat the tune of the explosion, which hurried him to eternity, his mother and friend were looking at tho boat from iho door in anxious expcc» fancy of bis return. Tho loss of life, dreadful as it was, cannot os yet bo eorroclly arrived at,. from tho fact that many were blown tn the water and have never since been seen. Mr. Ward, who is providentially but slightly bruised, can give no guess at tho number of persons' on board, as ho had not gone round for the purpose of collection. We aro therefore compelled to make op onr melancholy total from tbo returns of the cor* oner, tnd from our diligent enquiries/ Killed.—William W. Benson, first engineer; left leg blown off.
