OCR STATE OOSVENTION.
Onr Stato Convention is over, and we hove,
withmucb labor, placed its proceedings before
onr readers, and we have no doubt but ail, will
be satisfactory.
The-proceedings will show that greater unani
mity of sentiment ‘never prevailed m any Con
ventiou that has ever been held in onr State,
lv.v - than the one thatho3 just adjourned.. Bbciianak
was the name that came in thunder tones from
an overwhelming msjority of the Democracy of
the~State, and t although.a few fora while, were
* disposed to struggle agoinst the tido of popular
sentiment, they, at last came down, and, like
true Democrats, gave In their adhession to the
will of the people. By avote, almost unanimous,
.-j , -Jambs Bccbauak hns been declared the candi
date of the Democracy of Pennsylvania,, and we
, ’ v an certain that his election to the Presidency is
the great desire of men of nil parties, not only ,
" in Pennsylvania, but, throughout the Union.
~ There is no nook or corner within the wide
bounds of our country in whief -his name is not
known, and where his worth as a. man and his
high acquirements, as a statesman, ore not ap
preciated. Ills exalted talents, his long services, |
bis unswerving honesty, anhis frank and cand
- did expression of opinion, whenever interrogated
in a proper manner, have endeared him to the .
people, and.' made him popular with the Demo
cracy iu every part of the Union. He is the
man with whom the people can feel secure, and
the man who will administer : the duties of his
high office faithfully nnd fearlessly without Te
spect of persons Of his nomination by the
National Convention, we have not n douht, and
we believe, that in his election, not only the
Democratic party, bnt the people st large, will
achieve a triumph that will be .of. iuestimable
henefit to the country..
We are blbo pleased with the nomination of
Mr. Seahigeit for tbo office of Canal Commis
sioner. He Is a well known nnd well tried
: Democrat, and, in addition to his inflexible devo
■ ' non to republican principles, he is eminently
qualified to discharge the duties, of the office to
which he is nominated, Hehails from.noble
■ -Riye/fc, ono of -the never failing -pillars of De
mocracy in Western Pennsylvania, and-a sourco
to which we have always looked for cheering
news in the darkest days of trial. .It will.now
be A bulwark in the-west, and with Buchanah
and SEABionr it will give a minority that will
astonish even the people of the sterling Demo
- cratio county of .Fayette, Itself.
" All that is necessary to insure to llio party a
most magnificent triumph, is for them to not like
brothers,’id' harmony together, and - to work
cheerfully for the success of the principles to
which we ars all' devoted. We have no differ

and has earned at the rate of 20 per cent upon
tho investment. The great mails, it is confidently
expected, will be carried over this road, which
will show that it is the quickest route to the seat
of government.
To insure its completion, beyond q doubt,
within the time mentioned, a small additional
support is needed from our citizens. The shares
are only $76, and -payablo during tho progress
of the work, by instalment. - AYo hope no citizen
of Pittsburgh, upon whom Colonel Shriver, the
President of the road, may call, will hesitate to
give tho trifle—say four or fivo shares—allotted
to him—but will avail himself of the privilege of
aiding in the construction of this important

salt:
The test thus far is a triumphant vindication
of the Onondaga Solar salt. No one could dis
cover the least difference in the appearance or
the meat, after it was taken from the barrels ;
but It appears that the Onondaga Solar has dis
solved less than the other, a quality very essen
tial where meat is to he kept in a warm climate.
It is also heavier than the Turks Island salt, by
four pounds to the bushel.

granted. Experience has shown thattrveryef
fort will be made by thB Pennsylvania Railroad
company to mononoli7.e the carrying of freight
os well as passengers. There Is Util© doubt that
they have carried at losing rates in order t o break
down the competijitm of the transporters on the
canal, and if they can now get clear of the State
tax of three mills per ton, they may succeed in
drawing off the transporters and rendering “the
cpnal a Bolitude.” It is hardly possible that the
‘representatives of the tax payers of Pennsylva
nia will be found willing to aid in this work, cer
tainly they will not if they understand what they
are about, either to oblige.the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, or the people along the Jun
lflta who may desire a reduction on their local
freight.
Justico to the transporters who have invested
their capital in the business on tbe public workß
ns well as justico to the Stato forbids it. With
fair play they will bo able to compete successful
i ly with the railroad for the towle of the great
i west, and a fair competition between the two
i routes will have tho desired effect of keeping
freights down to a fair rate and bringing that
great trade through our Stato. The real inter
ests of “the people along tho Juniata/’ will
also be promoted by keeping up tho competition.
They will be much more likely to havo their
produce carried at low rate# while tho State
works are manned and in competition with the
railroad, than they will after they with the aid
of the Legislature shall have socoeedod indraw
ing off tho competition, and giving to the rail
road a monopoly of the carrying business.—
Harrisburg Keystone,
TUe beet Breed of SWlue for a Farmer*
I am perfectly satisfied from long experience,
nml bare publicly advocated it far upwards of
ten years, that the beßt and most profitable swine
for the fanner. Is that breed which will nearly
mature at eight to twelve month# old, and then
weigh well fatted and dressod, from 250 to 360
pounds A pig that has t? be. wintered and kept
till sixteen to nineteen months old, before fully
fatted, rarely pays for itself at the ordinary
price of pork ; and the average weight of these,
in the United States, even at n year nnd a half
old Ido not believe exceeds 3QO pounds.
Now, what the farmers waot is a large breed
with fine points and great growth. Such a breed
can bo made fat at any age,' and invanoblo ma
tures quick. But recollect they must have fine
points —by this I menu fine or small beads, ears,
legs feet and tall; a wide, deep chest nnd a
round full body, like a barrel. These o nstitute
what are technically called fine points. None
of your big beads, large top oMS.eoaTSo bristles
and hair, long legs, great feet;\tHpfl|bby: thin
slab sided bodies, after the alligator orlamlpike
order. Of the large breeds, r prefor the
°°ln order to get pigs to weigh well, they must
oome early. February in the Southern, March
in the Middle, and April in most of the North
ern States, ore tbo best months to drop. - Feed
them from the start all they will eat, and they
will be ready to kill from October to January.;
and thus yon dispense with wintering any, -ex
cept those reserved for breeding. : _ ;
For hams particularly, and sometimes for ba
con, especially for the English marhehjcim ten
der meat is most desirable. A particular breed,
lihe the Berkshire, is best adapted for this pur
pose ; and these may be kept from a year to 18
months old, before fully fattened. When It is
desired to rofiuo and inrprovo swino of. coarse
points it is best to use the Suffolk for a cross
upon them; but these of themselves are;too
small, and not of sufficient growth, to suit the
general purposes of tl.e farmer. Thoy do very
well for those who wish fino delionte pork lor
their own family use. A. B. Alins.

All the John Bulls, oven membersof the
Stock Exchange, are forming themselves into
Rifle Clubs to repel the invaders. Tbe London
Times says—
“ We expect to seo, in a 9hort time, at least, a
hundred thousand crnok rifle shots who Trill
undertake to pick a map ofl at 1000 yards, or
hit a button at 000 yards. This will render the
work of intended Invasion rather an ugly affair.
But we confess we should like to see warfare
conducted not on the ‘ distant popping,’’.but the
‘dose quarter' syßtem. Tbo superior strength
aud pluck of Englishmen would very soon ena
ble them to ‘serve out’ In true British style their
monkey-looking mustachioed opponents; how
ever, rifle olubß are an admirable idea, ttnd
they must be followed up unremittingly.”
Attempted Suicide. —Willis M'Clure formerly
a dry goods merchant on Western Row and
recently a gambler, attempted suicide mgbt

near Twelfth street, by stabbing Wmßelf with a

his money, whioh was several hundred dollars:
when, exasperated, -lio drew the knife and
plunged it into the vicinity of his heart. The
wounds are considered dangerous, and.Jtmt night
all hopes of his recovery were given up— Cm.
