Democratic County Committee of Corresponded e.
The Democratio County Committeo of Corres
pondence assembled at tho St. Charles Hotol, on
Saturday, July 21st. After a short address by
Thomas Farley, Esq., and others, in faver of re
ferring the nomination of State and County offi
oers to a County Convention, tho following reso
lutions were adopted:
Resolved , Thst the Democrats of the several
Wards, Boroaghs and Townships, of Allegheny
county, be requested to meet at the usual plaoes
on Saturday, the 18th of August, and eleot two
delegates from eaoh district, to meet in County
Convention on the following Wednesday, at the
Court House, at 11 o'clock, A. M., to take suoh
action regarding a ticket for State and County
offioers for the ensuing fall election as the Con
vention may deem proper. The citizens of the
Boroaghs and Townships will assemble between
the hours of 5 and 7 o'olook, P. Ed., and of the
cities of Pittsburgh and Allegheny botween the
hours of 5 and 7 o'clock, P. M.
There is a style of architecture oalled “ Mo
eaio,” and it consists in the blending of many
different materials and oolore into the same
structure. This style, irhioh many admire, is
now to bo oarried into politics. The American
party is eminently “ Mosaio ” in the variety of
materials, colors and startling contrasts which
eater into its composition.
K-fT"
In Louisiana this party is running a Catholic
for Governor, and many Catholios belong to the
order. In most of the northern States no mem
ber can vote for a Catholio for office ; no mem
ber of that Church can becomo a member of tho
order, and no man is allowed to join who has a
Catbolia wife. In Maryland and California
Catholics are not proscribed. In South Carolina
it is made and declared an open party, and an
intensely pro-slavery party. In Kentucky and
tho speakers of tho order declare its
design to bo to perpetuato and defend slavery.
In New England it is purely an anti-slavery par
ty. In Ohio the order is split into two parts,
about one-half beooming Chase abolitionists
and the other half oppose! to Catholics and for
eigners. In California foreigners are admitted
to membership, and the whole order there is in
favor of the immigration and citizenship of for
eigners. Iu Massachusetts a large portion of
the party aro in favor of admitting Protestant
foreigners to membership. In most of the other
States foreigners ore excluded, and in Louisville
they are excluded from the polls by force. In tho
south this order is in favor of the acquisition of
Cuba. In the north they oppose it because Cuba
is peopled by Spaniards and Catholics. George
Law and his friends in the party in New York
are in favor of free trade. In Pennsylvania the
party seems to favor a high protective tariff.
One or tho principles announced by the party is
that “ offioe should seek tho man, and not man.
the office.’ 1 Office-seeking is thus condemned ;
and yet in their papers more oandidatee are of
fering themselves for nomination than of all
other parties in existence. Bee the Philadelphia
Times and Pittsburgh Times for proof of this.
The New York delegation in tho National Con
vention at Philadelphia committed the party in
that State to tho national platform which favors
slavery. Most of tho northern States seoeded
and repudiated that platform.
Snoh is the “ mosaio ” complexion of the par
ty that is going to destroy tho Democraoy, break
down the administration, swallow up all other
parties, and “ break things generally."
Taking the whole party together, then, it is pro
slavery and anti-slavery : it is in favor of and op
posed to the foreigners ; it is pro-tariff and anti
tariff; it runs a Catholic for Governor, and is op
posed to Catholios; it is opposed to office-seeking,
yet office-seekers rush into the party to get offioe;
it affirms and approves all past legislation on the
subjeot of slavery by a resolution of its national
convention, and it resolves to repeal that legisla
tion ; it proclaims pure and “ intense American
ism,” yet forms a seotional party opposed to
nearly one-half the Union. Taken as a whole,
the oountry over, suoh is its condition ; and
even in localities its aims and principles are
about as incoherent and inconsistent.
For half a oentury tho Democratic party has
enjoyed the oonfidenoe of the people, and for
nearly all that time has administered tho affairs
of the government. Under its administration
the oountry has grown and prospered beyond all
preoedent. No other oountry has ever experi
enced, in the same length of time, suoh peaoe
and seenrity; such freedom and prosperity; and
snoh a rapid inorease in population and in ex
tent of territory. Its territory has been doub
led, and its population six-fold, and its wealth
ten-fold increased. Thore must bo wisdom, pa
triotism and justice in the principles and policy
of tlle party under whose rule suoh results have
been attained. Why shonld any Demoorat leave
suoh a party for the desperate ohanoo of some
thing better promised by another party, whose
priuoiples are so incoherent and inconsistent as
those of our opponents. As a party it haß no
elements of nationality; no basis broad enough
for stability and permanonoy ; and no ohanoe of
even temporary success. There may be errors
in particular measures of tho Democratic party 1 ,
and faults needing oorreotion. No human par
ty can be free from suoh ; but certain it is that
its general polioy and measures must have been
sonnd and wise or it would not so long have tri
umphed, and produced fruits so rioh and boun
tiful and good. Let it bo judged oandidly by
its fruits and it oannot fail now, and it will not.
If it presents a good ticket it will win this
fall even in this oouut, : aai lho nelt Pl . eaidout
will be a Democrat.
t&- It seems to be a matter of eome aooount
to show that at a oommltteo meeting on Wed
nesday, one of the editors of this paper voted
with the Germans. To save farther trouble we
will acknowledge the faot. Wo did vote on the
same Bide with two German fellon-oitizens on a
certain question. If oar German friends were
wrong, then we were. Is the [Oaeelte reporter re
lieved from farther trouble by oar admission ?
Are all parties satisfied ? We are.
It is proper to say however that the vote stood
to 0.
The political contest in Ohio has beoome
very animated already ~
.... ~ . three parties are in
the field, and the candidates are already on the
Damocracy as thoroughly aroueed, and their
meetings very large and enthueiaetic. Medill is
the Democratic candidate for Governor and will
probably be elected.

publish tho following letter from Mr. Carlyle :
Chelsea, July 10, 1866.
Dear Sir : Thanks for your good will to me,
for your good opinion of me, which latter, 1 fear]
is much exaggerated, I am sorry it is not in my
power to do anything in the matter you suggest
to me. I have known about Mr. Urqubart these
many years, and not very long ago I read care
fully enough a thick book of his writings, not
without esteem for the man in many considera
ble respects, but with no notion whatever to go
farther into his Tark-Rassian, &c., speculations,
upoQ which, indeed, I have no pleasure or inter
est in speculating at all. Except that poor Eng
land, with such an explosion of folly as never
happened before, has plunged overhead into that
bottomless pool, (whero, my clear belief is, she
had do business whatever,) and has thereby
found the fato long due to her, of being proved
to be a oountry sunk In folly, in hypocritical in
competence, and every species of ootton confu
sion, varnished over with parliamentary elo
quenoe, free presses, liberty of the subjeot, &o.
—fto that simple persona thought it muoh the
contrary—and is thereby getting into a condi
tion hideous to all good citizens, and incapable
of help by any words of mine—l take not the
least interest in the Turk-Russian business, and
have only one wish about it, for vrhioh the Turks
are not muoh obliged to rue.' In Lhese oiroucu
stanoes, stlenoe, so long as silence can be kept,
is clearly the one course; the rather as lam not
idle otherwise, bat doing the best I can iu what
seems to me the deeper strata of the business.
It will be diffioult for you'to forgive me all this
herefly ; but I hove no doubt your good nature
will at length prevail as usual.
Yours (in much haste) very sincerely,
Isaac Ironsides, Esq.
Murdering a Murderer
Some days ago we gave an acoount of the
lynching of Do Bar, in WißOonsin, by an infu
riated mob. Commenting upon it, the N. Y
Express says :
Wo publish elsewhere a detailed account of
the killing, by Lynoh law, on the part or a Wia
oonßin mob, of a wrotoh named De Bar, who, to
of the sum of SSU or so, attempt
ed to murder a whole family. The atrocious
oharaoter of the crime created in the oity and
vicinity an excitement that ended in the rescue
of the murderer from the oustody of the author
ities, and the mob themselvos performing tho
dread ofEoe of exeoutioner- Tho affair, alto
gether, is one of the most revolting of its kind
ever heard of in the annals of lawlessness and
orlme. But what we desire to make a spooiai
note of here howover, is the faot that Wisoonßin
is one of those States that have erased capital
punishment from their statute books. In the
oase of De Bar, it would seem that the people
there, think there aro some orimes for which
mero imprisonment for.life is no adequate penal
ty. They believe that a fiend in human shape,
heartless enough to kill off an entire family for
the sake of a few dollars, iB not fit to walk on
earth—and so, despite of their own enaotmenl
against life-taking, they prooeod in the most
cold-blooded and deliberate manner to stone him
out of existence. The inference is, that the
abolition of tho death penalty does not work in
these eases so well as was oxpeoted. And the
inference is right, for we see here, that it does
not deter one man from killing a whole family,
nor a mob of a thousand men from turning mur
derers themselves, by murdering'tho murderor !

Shocking Termination lo a Marriage In
France
A frightful oaac or hydrophobia is described
m the Lyons journals, which, if the feats are
correctly elated, would go to prove that this
fatal malady oan remain in the system as lone
as four years without development. A yonne
farmer named Peyron, about 25 years of tie -in
the department of tho Rhine, was married a few
weoks ago to a neighbor’s daughter. The young
oouple hßd been long attaohed to eaoh other ■
but the parents of the Bride had refused their
ooosent on aooount of the strangeness of con
duct occasionally observed in the yonng man
who otherwise was a most eligible matoh ■ his
parents being comparatively well off, and the son
himself generally of exemplary oondnot. His
passion for tho girl beoamo at length so violent
that he declared ho oonld not exist without her,
and his mother, fearing from hie manner that he
meditated suioide, went to the paronte of the
youog woman, and, after Bomo entreaty, prevail
ed upon them to agree to tho matoh. Young
Peyron at onoe recovered his spirits, the yonDg
woman was delighted, and the marriage was oel
ebrated with all the rustio pomp and oeremony
oommon in that part of the provinoes, oonolud-
Ing with a grand dinner, and the inevitable ball.
Tho gayeties were kept up until daylight, when
the oompany separated.
Tho new married couple were lodged in one
wing of the farm house, aeparato from tho main
buildings ; hut in a short time after they retired*
cries were heard from the nuptial ohamber. At
first they were unnoticed ; but at length they in
creased to fearful shrieks, and the father and
mother, alarmed, hastened to tho room, followed
by the farm servants. Tho cries were by the time
they arrived ohanged to soarcely andi bio groans
from the poor girl; and on breaking open the door
she was found to be in tho agonies of death—her
bosom torn open and laoerated in the most hor
rible manner, and tho wretched hußband in a fit
of raving madness and aorered with blood, hav
ing actually devoured a portion of the nnforto
nate girl’s breast. A cry of horror burst forth
from oil presont, and be was dragged from tho
room after a most violent resistance, it taking no
less than six mon lo hold him down. Aid was
instantly sent for, and before the dootor could
reaoh the spot, the unhappy victim was no more.
Young Peyron wss put nndor treatment, and a
straight waistooat was attcmpted|to bo put upon
him, bat his struggles and screams were suoh
that the dootor, apprehensive that he should ex
pire injthe assistants' hands, orders i them to de
sist. The unfortunate man had bcoome so weak
that ho was easily conveyed to bed, and died at
4 o’olock in the afternoon of the same day, with
out having for one moment reoovered his oon
sciousness. It was then recollected, in answer
to searohing questions by a physician, that some,
whero about five yearß previously ho had been
bitten by a strange dog, and taken the usual
precautions against hydrophobia.
But although tho dog was killed, it had never
been satisfactorily shown that It was really mad;
and no ill oonsoqaenoe resulting from the bite,
his friends oonclnded that it would oome to
nothing, and the incident bad been altogether
forgotten. It was considered by the dootor that
tho oiroamstaoces preceding the marriage and
the oxoitement of tho oooieion itself, hod rous
ed the latent virus, whioh had so loog laid dor
mant in tho blood, and led to the terrible out
break of frenzy whioh had ended so tragioaily.
On the medical report being laid before tho au
thorities, the extraordinary naturo of tho oaae
naturally exoited much attention and considers
bio controversy—the opinions of the heads of
the profession being, after full Inquiry, that
there was no hydrophobia in tho oaso, but root
ed insanity, and that it was shown to exist by
the ocoaeiooal aborations of the unfortunate
yooog mao, as before mentioned ; and that his
diseased temperament and too violent passions,
powerfully acted on by tho circustances, led to
the fatal oonsequenoos narrated above. This
ead oatastropho has given rise to a fierce medi
cal controversy in some of tho professional
journals on the nature of hydrophobia, from
whioh it would appear that, althoogh instances
of romarkobio oases of this frightful malady
are often described in the journals, no authenti
cated account of its favorable termination is
yet known in Franco.
I From the Chicago I'crdS, Aaj. 14 j
Tbs Whiti In the Owner-tin Crape yei
to nature,
Tue wheat harvest throughout tho oountry Is
near its oonoluston. The winter crop has, we
think, been cut in every wheat growing State In
the Union. The balance of the spring crop will
probably be secured within the next week, Bhould
the weather prove favorablo.
In-Wisoonain, says the Wisconsin, tljo former
has been secured in every county in the Btate,
some of it slightly damaged by rain, but not
enough to materially dotract from its value.
The crop ie not only a good one, but one-third
larger than was over beforo raised. Tho spring
crop has been cut in every portion of the State,
and that is also good. There is probably some
spring whoat yet to bo harvested in Northern
Miohigan, and ponsibiy a little in the Northeast
ern States; but a few days of favorablo weather
will oomplete the harvest everywhere.
For all praotical purposes of estimate as to
quantity and quality, it is now as good as fin
ished. Tho orop Is everywhere extraordinary
unexampled In tho history of the country. Some
of our cotemporaries estimate the aggregate
crop as high ns 175,000,000 of bushels; and wo
believe this to be an under rather than an over
statement. Upon this estimate the New York
Courier and Knquirer has made up the following

Sarelj this may emphatically be oalled a land
of plenty when in the single artiole of wheat
we have a surplus of from Bixly to seventy mil
lions of bushels after the wants of the whole
oonntry are supplied. That of itself is enough
to furnish bread to mauy millions of people in
other countries. Muoh of it will go to England
a small portion will probably be sent to feed
the armies of the Allies—but the abnndanoe of
wheat and other crops in Europo is suoh that
only moderate prices oan bo anticipated. Sup
pose only a dollar per bushel for the surplus be
realised, it ought to bo sufficient to keep far
mers from grumbling. But no matter what the
nominal prloe may be, the valut of such a wheat
orop Is not computable iu dollars ond oents
The aooounts whioh we reoeive from all parts
of the oouutry oonour in stating that oorn, po
tatoes, oats, Ac., will bo correspondingly abua
danl. At the West, the corn orop will be next
iu iraportauoo to wheat. Imagination oan hard
ly sat a limit to the quantily that will be raised.
The season has been too oold to foroe it forward
very rapidly, but with favorable weather here
after, it will turn out well everywhere. Pota
toes give great promise. From the Eastern
Western, and Middle States, and the British
Provinces, the reports are everywhere the Bame
—"there never was suoh a year for potatoes.”
Let the peoplo rejoice in view of the abun

land. It Is in every way an unmixod blessing
It will give stimulus and steadiness to every de

oommanders ore said to have held
on tho first news of the offensive movement o'f
Muravieff against Kars and Erzeroum, a coun
cil of war, in whioh a memorandum of the mea
sures to be taken, was adopted, and transmitted
to Constantinople. The plan is said to rest on
the assembling of an army of 86,000 men at
Trebizond and Esohurnkßn. ifow, according to
all military men, for the execution of suoh a
plan, the Porte would require six weeks at least,
and meanwhile her army in Anatoma would be
dispersed. Maffik Pasha and General Williams
seem to.hava adopted the best available moans
by shutting thcmeelvca in Ruz until something
might be done for their roeono.
Rumors have been ourrent of a misunder
standing about Sebastopol having broken out
between the English and French governments
but, on inquiry in the best informed quarters’
the Paris correspondent of tho London Timu
finds that it simply amounts to this :
“England asked tho Frenoh government for
lie opinion on the question whether, in the event
of Sebastopol not falling into the hands of tho
allies before the end of October, it wonld not be
desirable, in order to preserve tho troops from
the terrible ngors of a Crimean winter to give
up the siege, remove the oampa to near Cons'tan
tmople, and reoommcooe tho seigo oarly in the
spring, on an entirely new plan.
“The French government answorod that
though the plan suggested was not without its
advantages, the withdrawel of the French army
from the Crimea without the capture or destruc
tion of Sebastopol, wonld oroate such a painful
sensation in Franco that, for its part, it oonld
not think of anything of tho kind. The Eng
lish onbinet, whioh, probably, had no fixed opin
ion on the point, did not say a word in defence
of its question, and the matter dropped."
(From the London Times, July 30. j
whatever may be the caasea that retard the
progress of the siege of Sebastopol by land, and
cause the allied oommanders to postpone those
field operations whioh are considered by all thoaa
mlUtary authorities who have investigated the
oabjeot, both abroad and at homo, to be indie
pensable preliminaries to the redaction of tho
pl&co, none of theeo reasons can flffect tho move
menta of the Davy. It Is obvious that the admi
rals possess all the advantages wbioh tho undis
puted possession of Sebastopol itcoif has hitherto
secured to the naval power of Russia.

(From lb® Lon.ion Daily of July jo
! General Count Zunoyski armed in London
j yesterday morning. We understand his visit ia
the result of a special invitation from tbe Brit
ish government. Tho Count’s talents and abiil.
ties, and his practical knowledge of military and
diplomatic affairs, are well known ; aud as ho
oomes direct from the East, he will be able to
gtvo important information respecting tho real
state of matters in that quarter. It is evideut
that Coant Zamoyski can only have been invited
to England at tho present oriais, with a view to
enable the government to arrive at some final
deoiflioa on the Polish question.
We have had ocoaßion to notice ore non that
tho opinion of tho continental liberals who are
most conversant in the affairs of tho Poles aud
of the countries bordering on Poland, ia, that
the present moment is auspioioua for striking a
b n W i- a L aaBa . ia in lhat 1 0arter - The nucleus of
a Polish Legion already exists in the so-called
Turkish Cossaks, who aro almost exclusively
Poles, wearing a Polish uniform nnd carrying
Polish ensigns. If there is any meaning in the
expression usod by Bir William Moleßworth at
tbe Southwark nomination—to tho effect that it ;
is the purpose of tho British government to
“strike a body blow” at Russia—wo may war
rantably infer that Coant Zimoyski’s arrival in
this oonntry will be tho proludo to somo decl
sive movement. Tho meeting on tho affairß of
Poland, to be held in Saint Martin's Hall on
Wednesday, under the presidency of Sir Do La
oy Evans, will afford ministers an opportunity
of testing the feelings of tho country on this
question.
It is manifest that the sphere and objects of
the war are extending. An electric thrill is
running through the whole of Europe. We
would be the last to enoourago rash or Quixotic
enterprises, bat we know that the peoplo of
England will not fliooh from any reßpoueibilitiee
whioh tbe prominent position of their country
among tho nations of the world is likely to im
pose upon them ; and that they will insist upon
their government's using every effort to conduot
the struggle in whioh we are involved to a ter
mination that will better the position of liberty
law and order in Europe, in opposition to the
convulsive efforts of despotism.

The information from the Crimea (It is im

The works are advanoing rapidly in front of the

them to enoh a near point that tho damage ef
fected to Bnssian defences cannot be repaired
before the assault takes place. This is bat a
return to the plan skotched out by Canrobsrt.
It is oertain the Russians hare for several days
slaokened their fire, which circumstance is as

Scarcely any topic of medical science has allotted more

inuat be admitted, however, that, after aft, a meda of ex
polling these worms, and purllying the body from their
presence, Is of more value than the wiaeot disquisitions aa
to the origin. The expelling agent haa it length been
