GEO. P. HAMILTON, Ch’n. i
L. Harfeb, Seo'y. i
S@* There is a prodigious excitement just
now amongst the Whigs of this city and county,
■ relative to their nominations for county officers.
The contest for Sheriff appears to be tho AarSn’s
rod,-which swallows tip nil other questions and
interests. The result wo cannot announce with
any degree of certainty, as the friends of -Tonus
and Maqu.l. are each claiming tho victory. The
Journal is for the former and the Oacettc for the
latter; and it is given ont in private oircles that
the Deacon will not support Mr. Jones, even if
he should be nominated. We have not learned
that Mr. Brontr. has carried his threats so far
incase Mr. SlAaiLt should receive the nomina
tion. Bat threats of this kind before a nomina
tion never amount to much; as those knights of
th<iquill will not bo so foolish as to quarrel with
their bread and butter. The Sheriff’s printing
is too fat a slice to be thrown to the dogs.
In the contest for Sheriff, tho other officers
have been lost sight of; but wo learn that Jo
stia Keos, Esq., is confident of receiving the
. nomination for Congress, ne is now actively
engaged in driving bargains amongst tho Jones
and Magill delegates; bnt as the Maine Liquor
Law has became mixed up with this contest, Mr.
Knox’s chances, it is thought, will suffer mate
rially. It is hinted that in case Mr. Knox is not
nominated by the Whig Convention, he will come
cut os a volunteer candidate, and take the stamp
against all competitors. His celebrated speech
at Washington is enongh to aonvinoo the world
that sb an orator Iho has few equals and no su
. periors.
WHEELING BRIDOE CASE.
Ibis cose hating been finally disposed of by
the highest authority in the land, (the Supreme
Court of the Catted States,) it now remains to
execute the judgment and decree. The people
of Wheeling will of course feel grieved, because
their beautiful straotnro will have to oome down,
but, as law-abiding oitizens, they will have to
submit to the result with the best grace possi
ble. The owners of the bridge, will never think
of making the stream west of Zone's Island nav
igablofor steamboats; and even wero such a
thing possible, or praotioable, it would only tend
to ruin the commerce of Wheeling.
The following resolution was passed in the
Senate of Virginia on Tuesday last:
•Resolved, By the General Assembly or Virgin
ia, That the Senators .from this State be instruct
ed, sad the representatives bo requested to urge
upon Congress the necessity of such legislation,
as shall speedily adjust the controversy respect
ing the Wire Suspension Bridge at the City of
Wheeling; so as to preserve the eamo as at pres
ent'existing; and that they procure the enact
ment of each laws as shall bo necessary and
proper-for the regulation of oommorce on the
Ohio river, defiining the extent to whioh piers
may be erected therein, and the elevation to
which bridges may be constructed over the same,
with reference to the free navigation thereof, so
aa to prevent the ocourrenoo of all saoh contro
versies in fatnre. '
This resolution is worse than rediouloue—it is
n downright insult to the Supreme Court. It
anils on Congress to pass an txpoal facto law,and
protect tho nuisance opposite Wheeling! We do
not believe, however,'such a foolish thing will
be attempted by Congress, or, at least, it cannot
be carried through that body. It will be a dan
gerous thing for Congress to undertake to over
throw the decisions of tho Supreme Court, mere
ly to satisfy a few interested individuals.-
asulr wlll be seen by a communication pub
lished in to-day’s ftsf, that our old friend 'and
neighbor, Jacob Me Call; step., is spoken of as a
candidate for Coroner,on the Democratio side.—
If honesty, Integrity and devotion to the prinol
. plcs of Democracy, are .any recommendations;
thett Wc ean safely affirm that Mr. McCalubteu
will come before the Connty Convention with
dean hands and strong backing.
JudgeWARDEN of tho Cincinnati Daily
addressed to the pnblio
over his own signature, denies that he has quar
relled with the Archbishop, or that that paper
is his organ. - ,
jgjp-lUiey, ofihe Mountain Sentinel, Ebens
bnrg/bcaat* that he "caught one hundredtront'
with a single ‘fly.” That is the veiy latest fish
etory we have heard of.
DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION.
..This body will assemble in the.City.of Balti
more this day, (Tuesday.) Junedst, 1852. Ev
ery patriotic Democratic-citizen will look for its
proceedings -with no ordinary interest. .. Ufa shall
endeavor to lay before our Humorous readers the
result of its deliberations os soon Rs passibla af
ter they reach ue. -From the number of candi
dates whose names will be brought before the
Convention, and the diversity of opinion existing
amongst the delegates, we do notexpeot that a
nomination will be made on tho first day: In
deed, it may possibly he two or throe days before
the Convention can agree upon a candidate.
We are anxious to see the proceedings of this
immense gathering of the representatives of the
American Democracy in all respects harmonious,
and conducted in a spirit of fairness, frankness
and conciliation. Of-course it is impossible for
us to predict with certainty who will be tho De
mocratic nominee; hut we.hope, nay we believe,
that Pennsylvania’s illustrious statesman, James
Buchanan, will be the choice of the august body
which this day assembles at Baltimore. If our
most ardenthopes are in this particular gratified,
we cau go into the campaign with a positive cer
tainty of achieving a glorious vlotory at the polls.
Mr. Buchanan’s name: will insure' success, it
matters not who Will bo the nominee of the pie
bald opposition. However, if tho National Con
vention shall deem it best to select another dis
tinguished Democrat os our standard bearer,
still we hope and expect to elect him, but yet the
result we do not consider bo certain as if Mr.
Buchanan led on the phalanx of Democracy.
JUNE 1
We have seen a number of calculations as to
the probable result of the first ballot, Tho fol
lowing estimate from tho Now York Earning Post,
will probably not differ widely from the actual
vote:

Wo are dearly of the opinion that the vote of
General Casa wilt fall off after the first and sec
ond ballots, anil that Mr. Buchanan's voto will
increase. Wo feel confident that the latter nil!
distance all competitors on tho third and fourth
ballots. Ills friends in tho Convention aro num
erous, and vrtil he active, and nil! not forsake
him, Hbilc he HiU have no enemies In that high*
ly respectable hody—which is not tho case with
some of tho other prominent candidates.
It will be of some Interest to oar readers at

the whole number of members to 234, and of

PiitsbuigUand Erie Railroad*
The Directors of this company met in New
Castle on Wednesday: last, for ; the purpoßO of
making arrangements.; for- the prosecution and
speedy completion of. this-: important improve
ment to WesternPonn3ylvania. - - - ■
A slip containing the proceedings, from the.
office of the Lawrence Journal, states that the
Directors were all of one mind to push the work
onward as fast os posaiblo, and that a portion of
.the line from the summit south-—where there,is
no rival route-vis to be located immediately and
work commenced The Shenango route is yet to
be survoyed, and will bo commenced soon. The;
route from New Castle to tho- junction with tb e
Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad, has not been
fixed upon, and the Editor of the Journal has
been informed by the Chief Engineer that tbe
location of that portion of tho road will depend
very much on the part of tho laud holders-m
giving the right of way. The question whcthe r
the Commissioners- of Lawrence■ connty, shall
subscribe to the capital stock of the above Rail
read, will bo submitted to the grand jarors.
The following resolution was passed unani
mously by the board :
Resolved, That a committee be appointed in tho
oounties of Reaver, Lawrence, Mercer, Crawford
ond Erie for tho purpose of taking proceedings
to secure the subscription authorized by the-char
ter, to be subscribed by the said counties, and
municipal corporations therein.
Resolved, That the Directors residing in tho
afore mentioned respective comities be the sev
eral committees, and that Doctor William Gib
son, Samuel Goodwin and John A. Wagli bo the
committee for Crawford county.
Resolved, That C. 51. Reed, John 11. Walker,
John M'Clure, P. Jletcalf and James C. Mar

Power, Hanson Leonard, Joseph 51*Arthur, Les

That Cobuesfondence. —Tho Richmond En
quirer of Thursday says: ‘‘ln order to allow
time to all the gentlemen who have been written
to on tho subjoet, to respond,-we shall defer un
til to-morrow tho publication of all tho corres
pondence between Robert G. Scott, Esq., the
Democratic Elector of this District, and several
gentlomcn prominently named in connection with
tho Presidency, which has been placed in our
hands. We have, now letters from eleven of
those gentlemen, who all come up to the mark,
wo ore proud to say. Other answers we expect
to receive, prior to the time of publication of the
whole correspondence."
The New York 'Herald’s, Washington corres
pondent, referring to this correspondence, re
marks:
“It is evident the Democratic Convention will
not remain silent upon the Compromise mea
sures, but that a full and frank expression of
opinion will be required from all the candidates.
Tho prompt and decided manner in which the
different candidates have met the issue, will do
the party material service'. 1 ’
THE TWO THIRD RfLE.
It Is probable that the Democratic National
Convention, to assemble in Baltimore this day,
(Tuosday,) will adopt tbe two-third rule. It has
been tho rule of every Democratic convention
since 1832, when it was first adopted. The ori
gin and history of this rule is os follows:
“The convention of 1832 appointed a commit*
tee to report rules to govern its action in making
its nominations. In this convention the ques
tions whs raised, and discussed with some feel
ing, ns to what should be the rale of voting—
whether the vote should be confined to tho ma
jority States which had voted for Gen. Jackson
in 1828, or whether the minority States, which
had voted against him, should also be entitled to
their full electoral vote—when a memher.frtm
Ptnrteylrama, now deceased, proposed tbe two
thirds rule «» ft compromise, which was adopted,
andreported by Col. King, its chairman of the
committee. This rale was intended to secure the
majority States from nominations against their
wishes, whioh might have been effected by com
binations between a portion of their strength
nnd tho minority States.”

Packets on the Erie Canal.
We understand that a line of passenger pack
ets lias been put upon the Erie canal, which will
leave New Brighton twice a week, Mondays and
Thursdays. Tho boats plnccdin tbe line ore of
tho first class of packets, provided with every
convenience to render the voyage pleasant to
passengers, and they ore officered by gentlemen
who will spare no painß to make tho voyngo
comfortable to those who may patronize them.—
Tho canal is now in fine order, baying been com
pletely repaired sinoo tho Into freshet, ond at
present we do not know of a more pleasant route
for a trip toErlo than by the Railroad from this

Tho Merrick House.
We are gratified to lcara that tho proprietor
of this excellent hotel, at Now Brighton, Is do

with perfect safety, that a bettor regulated house
in all its departments; a bouse where more neat
ness is observed, more excellent accomodation
furnished, and more courteous attention to visi
ters paid, cannot bo found any whore. Wo are
pleased to learn that many of our Fittsburghers
havo discovered this delightful retreat, and after
visiting it once, it wilftie hard for them to re
frain irom making it a permanent abiding place
during tho hot summer season.
Tire Atlantic Steamem.—A statement rela
tive to tho business of the Collins and Cunard

Tho average length of tho Western passage per
formed by tho Collins line was 10 days 21 hoars
and 10 minutes; of tho Cunard, 11 days, 4
hoars and 13 minutes. The amount of Custom
House duties paid by tho former, was $2,122,-
