WIIV WE SHOULD SUPPORT TBE TICKET The Democrats of this county have presented for their support thißf&U one of tho boat tickets TT6 have ever had. Tho Convention whiob form ed it seemed resolved to do right, and to repre sent the views and promote the best interests of the party. Seldom has a Convention been so harmonious, bo free from factional influences, and so intent upon commencing the work of the campaign well and wisely. We should all sup port the ticket, then, because it is a good one> and was put in nomination by a Convention that truly represented the sentiments of the party. Last year was a yoar of disasters to our party. Private griefs and disappointments had alienated some of onr former friends. Many were dissatis fied with our candidates. Novel combinations were formed against us; and by tbo lukewarm ness of our friends, and the zeal of our foes, we j lost all in 1854. But theso causes are not at work now. Our Joes arc divided and cannot unite in time for the October election. Our can didates are unobjectionable. Tho disaflfeoted and disorganizing have left us, and we have found many new friends in their stead. In al[ directions we find tho Democrats going zealously and confidently to work. They seem to be re solved that it onr turn now to triumph ; that it is our duty to do so, and that there are elements at work that will enable us to do so if rightly employed. Wo should all support tho ticket, then, bcoauso we have a chance of Buooess; a ohance to secure a fair share of the public offi ces, whioh onr party in this oounty has seldom enjoyed. By failiog to do our duty this fall we shall throw away the host obanoo we had for years of securing a just share iu the adminis tration of public affairs. The Democratic party is now the only national party; and npon its firmness and suooess must the country depend for the safety and integrity of the Union, and for peaoo and harmony be tween its different parts. The people have not yet forgotten the value of the Union, nor the hlßtory of the past. That history assures os that it was the Union of the North and Sooth that secured our independence; that has ena bled us in three-fourths of o century to become one of the greatest nations of the world ; and it Is that Union that now gives us domestic peace and prosperity, and seoures ns from foreign as sault. Upon the Democracy alone now devolves tho task of preserving that Union and all its inestimable advantages. This is our task and our duty ; and each triumph won, each battle well fought, even in a looat election, is a part of its accomplishment. Henoe we should support the tioket; to measure our strength, perfeot our organization, Sa prepare for the Presidential campaign of next year. If we win this year, the farces of onr antagonists will be broken and scattered, while onr friends will be oheered and encouraged. Every troo Democrat will Bopport our whole ticket this year. He,will do so be cause it is a good tioket: because there is a rea sonable hope of success: and because the suc 0888 of the Demooraoy seems essential to the safety and beßt interests of the country. The charm of novelty and Buooess haß depart ed from the Know Nothing party. It has met repeated defeats of late, both North and. South. It is tho old Native American party, with a fresh infusion of religious prejudice and abolitionism, and with a temporary accession of numbers gained by that attractive secresy that it can no longer maintain. The Republican party is the old Abolition party with a new name, but no new principles. Its greatest achievement will be to rend asunder the Amerioan party, and thus divide and defeat the opponents of the De mocracy ; and all effective opposition to ns will be confined to the Northern States alone. Sirs, Bvliib«lm and «* Sam.*’ After all it appears Mrs. Jane Q. Bwisshelm is not “ sound on the Amerioan question ; " or rath er Bhe considers the Order unsound on the Anti- Slavery issue. She therefore writes another letter to Mr. Kiddle, expressing the hope that “if they (the Know Nothings) intend to oonnt the importance of Philadelphia dry goods, to the extent of adopting that lame Heading resolution as their ultimatum, I hope they may be so badly beaten that they will never think worth while oalling the roil after the next eleotion.” This is what she says after reading the platform of the principles of the Order as published in Us organs in this county. Mrs. Swisshelm says farther that when the members of the National Council’ meet at Cincinnati “ if they do not throw the Slavedrivers out of the window, they may tie up their organization in a little canvass bag, with' a quart of Band, and sink it in the Ohio.” Mr. Biddle says never a word in reply to the epistle of .his better half of th c'Joumal and Visitor, and W 8 consequently arrive at the opinion that the American party has concluded to go ahead with out the aid of her powerful pen and—tongue. The entire number of applications under the bounty land law since Marob last, up to the Ist io£t., is 209,800, of whioh, 10,700 were filed in August. Daring the same month 8,700 warrants wore issued. Tbe total number issued is 24,000. While some boiyß were ‘*playing soldier” at Cold Spring, N. Y., on Thursday afternoon, Thomas Phaleo was stabbed in the lower part of hiS'body with a sharp bayonet fixed on a fitiok by a boy named Finnen, and injured so mnoh that he died in about half au hour afterwards. The deoeased was about eight years of age. -SEPTEMBER 4 Eight miles more of the Huntingdon and Broad Top railroad has been oompletod, making now 15 miles in all that is in operation. The grand exonrslon and pio-nio party, intruding the military and a band of musio, passed over tbe road on Thursday last as far as Green Groves, a distanoe of 13 miles, where the company partook of a sumptuous repast prepared for the ooca- Four young men belonging to Montreal, named Charles Atwater, Wo. Webster, Harry M. Webster and Wm. Keeler, were drowned while crossing Lake Champlain, from Chimney Point to Crown Point. The day on which they were drowned is not stated. Atwater is a son of Alderman Atwater, of Montreal. All the bodies had been recovered. The Wobstorß were sons of Dr. Webster, and Keeler was a atop bou of the proprietor of the Union Times. They all left Montreal on the 20:h inst., on a pleasure excursion New York (Soft) Democratic Convention.— Tho Soft Bhell Democrats of the Emplro State met at Syracuse last week, and nominated tbe following ticket: * Judges of the Court of Appeals —Samuel Seldon, of Monroe, (long term;) John A. Lott, of Kings, (short term.) Secretary of State— lsrael T. Hatch, of Erie. Comptroller —Samnel Stetson, of Clinton. State Treasurer —Arid 8. Thurston, of Che mung. Canal Commissioner —Curtis Hawley, of Liv ingston. Attorney General —Samuel J. Tildon, of New York. State Engineer and Surveyor —John B. Jervis of Oaeida. State Prison Inspector —Patrick Agan, of Onon daga. Mr. Belden, who heads tho ticket, is also tho oandidate of the Hard Shells, and will doubtlesß be elected. The Convention passed resolutions approving the polioy of the administration, and condemning the invasion of Kansas by tho Mis souri ruffians. Hon. John Y. M .ecu, U. 8. Minister at Paris, calls the attention of our Government to tho fact that persons who have only filed a declaration of their intention to become citizens of this country are going about Earope with papers alleged to be American passports, not even issued by the State Department, nor under its authority, but bj private individuals. In such cases be had takeo tho responsibility of seizing tho papers, and refusing to give, in place of them, any tes‘ timonial of American protection, and this course is approved by Secretary Marcy. The net amount in the Treasury of tho United States, subject to draft, is $19,91G,G19. While tho Allied Powers and Russia are hard up, Uqolo Sam has twenty millions moro than be knows what to do with. Who says Uncle Bam aint “rich enough to bay os all a four aero lot" Robort Kelley, of New York city, presided over tbe Soft Democratic Convention at Syra cuse. In tbh oveoing session on WedDosday, on motion of John Van Boren, it was resolved, that tho committee on resolutions bo instructed to report to the Convention thoir views upon the time and manner of appointing delegates to rep resent the Democracy of New York Cm oinnati National Convention. The K. N. State Convention at Bioghampton appointed Erastus Brooks and Mr. Soroggs, of Buffalo, delegates to tbo National Convention. It seems Rev. Cbaunoey Burr belongs to tbo or der; he that was formerly editor of the National Demoorat, a Hard print. The Baltimore Republican, in oxpresaiDg a preference for tho ro nomination of tho present incumbent of ibe Presidential chair, says: “Surely no man has more faithfully adhered to the constitution in all its requirements than has General Pierce.” The State of Maino newspaper says that the visit of Hale and Bel!, from New Hampshire, was as harmless as the visit of two grasshoppers. Banks sod Hale are still laboring to inform tho people of Maine who they should elect Governor and Representatives Benevolent persons, these renegades ; perhaps the voters of Maioe know their duty as well as those foreign dictators from New Hampshire and Massachusetts. An Eeeoe, popurae on Not. —The New York Ilerald says the belief that “ oar officiate and citizens" are prohibited from accepting titles of nobility, presents, &o , from foreign nations, is a “ popular error." It says an amendment to the Constitution, to that effect, was introduoed into Congress, in 1818, but was never passed, as only twelve States acoepted it. If this bo so, it is time that the Constitution of the United States were correctly printed, for every oopy ever is sued, that we have seen, stubbornly contains this paragraph in theTth'dmsion of section lx, of ar ticle Ist: •* No person holding any offloe of profit or trust under them, (the United States,) shall, without the consent of Congress, aooept of any present, emolument, offioe or titlo, of any kind whatever, from aoy king, prinoo or foreign State,” This seema a very effectual prohibition to “our officials," and wo never heard the olauso applied to private oitizena. 'When Gen. Jaokson, while President, a number of years ago, was presented by Borne admiring foreign friend of princely rank, the Emperor of Morocco, we believe, with a “Nomidian Lion," Congress had to pass on aot all owl tig him to accept it. Tho belief referred to may bepopular, but it is not so erroneous as the Herald supposes. Important Statistics. —lt is stated, as show ing that the Southern Btates maintain thoir growth relatively with the North, or nearly bo, that in 1790 the population of Georgia was 82,- 000 ; in 1860 it had increased to 906,000, an in crease of eleven fold in sixty years. In 1790, the population of New York was 840,000; in 1860 it had grown to 3.078,000, an inorease of nine fold in CO years. It will be perooived that Georgia has increased faster than New York, notwithstanding the advantage whioh the latter State has bad from foreign immigration. To make a comparison with Virginia, take the State of Massachusetts. In 1790 her population was 378,000; in 1860 tt was 994,000. In 1790 the population of Virginia was 748,000 ; in 1860 It was 1,421,000. In Massachusetts the increase in 60 years has been 280 per cent. In Virginia it has been 200 por oent. This difference in favor of Massachusetts Is very small, and is more than balanced, if you compare Connecticut with South Carolina, both belonging to the old thirteen. Io 1790 the population of Connecticut was 238,000; In 1850 it was 370,000. Thus nearly doubling in 60 years. Io 1760 the population of Bouth Car olina was 240,000; in 1860 it was 668,000, which is almost threo times the numbor in 1790. liOas of the Sab-Uarlne Gable for Con necting Nova Scotia* A despatoh has been received in this city from Sydney this morning, confirming the news of the loss of the sub-marine telegraph, whioh was being laid between Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. The vessel was 1 forty miles from the Newfoundland coast, and had been engaged in laying the cable two days. The cable, whioh was insured, was abandoned to the underwriters, and the vessel, after coaling at Sydney, was to return to this city, where she is expeoted to ar rive on Monday or Tuesday evening. It is sup posed that this aooident will delay the comple tion of the telegraph at least one year.

Ev ery attention and kindness that a generous and humane people oaa bestow, is liberally extended by the good eitize&B of our sister city, each en deavoring to outvie the other in noble acts of philanthropy, •! We are pained toadd that our prediction as to the condition of Mrs. Gillespie, of Mississippi, has proved true. Yesterday morning, her left leg was amputated by Dr. Paul Goddard, assist ed by Dr. John Neill and others. She bore the operation with an extraordinary degree of forti tude. Mr. Gillespie, her husband, whoso log was amputated tho previous evening, U rapidly sink ing, and it seems almost impossible for the re oovery of either. This is, indeed, a sad and •truly distressing case. Husband and wife, in years advanced, far from homo, bat not without kind friends, suffering under such awful circum stances, oanoot bo otherwise than harrowing to the feelings of the most stout-hearted. Both of the above are at the house of Mrs. Margaret Smith, Main street, below the railroad depot, where every attention is paid to them. Mr. Otis Fisk, of Middletown, Conn., had a portion of his foot amputated on Thursday nigbt. He is at the house of Caleb R. Smith. Seems to be easy, and in a fair way to reoover. Mtb. Boyoe, of Georgetown, I). C., was some | what better yesterday. Lewis Lichtenstein, of Riohmond, Va., was able to walk about yestorday, and will leave for home to day. Mrs. Phillips was leeched yesterday, and seems to be improving. Her little daughter was taken to Philadelphia on Thursday night. Mrs P. is at the Railroad Hotel. The body of Hughes B. Jervis, of Newark, Delaware, was olearly identified by Mr. Hagh 8. M’Cauley, of tho firm of M’Cauley & Camp bell, Fourth and Market streets, Philadelphia. His remains have been sent home. As there were doubts about the identification of the body, we deem it \ roper to say that Mr. M’C. fully satisfied all upon that point. Mr. M’C. was deeply affeotod when the remains of his friend were showu him. - John Pugh, of Sohuylkill county, and Dennis O’Kane, of Georgetown, are about the same. Hon. Wo.

Philadelphia, September 1, 1856 —John* F. Gillespie, of N'atcbcz, a victim of the disaster ai Burlington, died at two o’olook this afternoon. His wife is failing fast, and will not probably reoover. Much confusion has arisen regarding the body of Mr. Humphrey, it being olaimed undor four different names by no less than four persons.

Hash Elmore, one of the Judges of Kansas, bad been removed by President Pierce for the same of fence charged against cx Governor P.eodor, via: speculation in the pnblio lands. It seems he de nies tbc power of the President to remove him, and being backed by tho tot disant legislature of Kansas, dttiea the Federal authorities. Mr Elmore is a Virginian, hence we hoar uo bowl from the abolitionists against bis removal. But here is his letter to tho Attorney General of the United States. BllAWh'fiK MItJSIUS, Aug lid, IH.V>. Sir —i received yoQTs of ihc oth on the 20ih i did not explanations and reasons assignod in of the 11th of July to have been satisfactory to tho President, for i felt coctident that tho President's course being dictatod altogether by political policy whioh would not be successful without tho re movai of an equal number of Territorial ofli cera from the North and from tho Bouth, was fully determined upon (ex parte as it evidently was) on the date of your letter of the 1 4th of June, and 1 gave the statement of the facts, and the reason which indnoed mo to become a parly to those contracts in the way of explanations, so that the facts and my reasons might be placed on file in the Department. Tho Legislature has deemed it proper and right to locate tho seat of juslioo In and for the county of Calhoun at the town of Calhoun—a town laid oat on tho reserve granted to.the half breed Kansas Indians, (in whioh neither of the parties to tho contracts heretofore submitted by Gov. Reeder and others have any interest what soever,) and surety they would not have done so if they had ooneeived for one moment that by so doing they apparently violated tho act® of Congress, ortbe Regulations of the Department. I asked, for information, what act ot Congress and what regulations of the Department /.hod opparontiy violated, and l oonslder that I had a right to expeot that I should receive such iafor motion, and, as it is, has not boon given, I mast think that 1 have not apparently violated evon the spirit of a single act of Congress or regula tion of the Department, otherwise the informa tion would have been Imparted in your loiter of tho t>tb instant. The ‘27th section of tho act known as the Ne braska and Kansas Aot fixes tho tenure of offioe of the Judges of tho Supremo Court In these words, “ and they shall hold their office for the period of four years, find until their successors shall be appointed and qualified.” No power is given by the bill to the President to remove. And if you examine the tenuro of offioe of the Governor, the Secretary, tho District Attorney and Marshal, you will see a marked ditferonoe. The power to remove all and each of these offi cers Is expressly retained in these words, “ un less sooner removed by the President. fBee]the 20,-21, 27 and 29th scotions: pamphlet aots 1853-4, p. 284.) I must think, if the English language means anything, that tho President has not the power or the right .to remove tho Judges of this Terri tory at his will and pleasure; and, as the Ter ritorial Legislature has deemed it right and proper to express an opinion on the subject which is contained in the resolutions herewith enclosed, I oannot ooDsent to the action of the President, and i hereby give notice that 1 shall resist this action through the oourts of tho country. Respectfully, RUSH ELMORE. Hon. Calks Cvbhinci, Attorney General, U. 8, Greeley at a Donee House. Our neighbor Greeley gives, in the Tribune, an-interesting account of a visit be paid to the Cromorne Gordons during hie recent stay in London. Ho says there were ovor three thou sand persons present there, inoluding a thousand women, the majority of whom were manifestly lost to virtno, if not dead to shame. Ho says: 11 The English are not skiilfol in varnishing vioe—at least, I have seen no evidenoe of their taot in that line. 1 endured the Bpectaole of men danoing with women when rather beery and smoking; hut at last the sight of a dark and by no means elegant mulatto waltzing with a decent looking white girl, while pnffiog away at a rather bad olgar, proved too muoh for my Vankee prejudice, and 1 started." Tina shows how shockingly mon may bo mis understood. Tho popular notion hereabouts is that the prejndioe whioh actually proved 100 muoh for Mr. Greeley, was the last one to which he would bo likely to yield. If he had “ start ed ” at tho sight of the nnvirtuous women,—or of the beor and smoko, nobody wouldhave eo surprißOd ; but that he should stand ft * ’, finally be upset by the eight of a ““ a, ‘° oingwith a decent looking whi e girl ;i centra diets all the popular notions of hi P Yankee prejudice, after »U. querable York Times.

Kenneth Rayoer, delivered in ibe North Carolina Constitutional Convention in 1835, on the question of removing Catholio disabilities, contains, ss-the Mobile Regleter well says, noble sentiments: But it is said, if tho Catholic is exoludoJ from offioe, that will not deprive him of the right of worshipping God according to the dictates of | hia conscience. Sir, the right of worshipping God, free from all personal pains and penalties, is a right which can now bo enjoyed in any country in Christendom. An exelusion from the honors, the profits and emoluments of the State is the highest persecution which public opinion will tolerate in any Christian country tn this enlightened age. So that if you sanotion the principle recognized in the thirty-second article, you use the rod of persecution with a a unsparing a hand as it is used in Spain or tho States of the oburoh. And if you exolude one eeot, why not another and another, and finally all except one 7 It was a favorite saying of Napoleon that there was but one step from the flublimo to the ridicu lous: and on the same principle thore is but one stop from religious freedom'to the most bitter and intolerant persecution. Retain that artiole, and 1 assert it that the Catholio and the Jew will be placed under the ban of proscription, no matter how great may be his merits ; although he may pour out blood like water in her defense; yet, for daring to worship God aooording to tho diotates of his own oonsoieoce, you cut him off from all hope of political preferment, and from all stimulus to a laudable ambitiou. Like the Israelites in Egypt, he will bo oppressed by the land in whioh he lives, the soil on whioh ho treads, and like them he will have no other resource left but to turn his baok upon the graves of hia fathers, and take up his march for some more tolerant clime. Sir, the exoluaion from offioe for opinion’s sako, in this enlightened age procoeds from the same spirit of bigotry aod superstition whioh has preyed upon mankind from tho build ing of Babel to the present time; it is the same spirit which presented the cup to Boorates, con finod Galileo in his dungeon, which bound Cran mer to the stake of martyrdom, whioh drove the Huguenots from France—nay, more, Sir, it is tho same spirit which lod the riaviour of the world to Calvary's awful summit. Sir, what must be the situation of the immigrant who comes to this country for tho sake of religious freedom, if the appearance of the good old North State should induce him to make it hie home’ Will he not wish himself across the waters again, that “after life's fitful fever iB o’er" ho may lay his bones with those of his fathers? What must be tho feelings of the pbus mother, when looking on her tender infant whom she believes her duty to her God enjoins her to train up in the same way which has se cured poaoe to her own bosom —what most be her agonizing feelings when she retleots that by so doing she is consigning him to obscurity forever? Sir, I would ask the Convention whether this proscription is in accordance with the holy pre cepts of the requirements of tbc Gospel 9 Does it accord with that benevoleoco for the human family, that charity for others, without whioh the Apostle Bays a practical exorcise of all Chris tian duties, coupled with a faith strong enough to remove mountains is “as soundlog brass and tinkling oymbals.” Sir, Is this convention ready to incorporate into our fundamental law the dootrine that hon esty, capability, and faithfulness to tho Consti tution, is not a sufficient qualification for office, but that ho who obtaios it most abjure to a cer tain particular faith” Sir, who constituted us judges of the hearts and oonscieooes of meu” What right have we to impugn the motives of our fellow-men? it Is 'asserting one of tho at tributes of the Deity itself, for it is the Lord alone that poudereth the heart. Sir, you may carry on this system of persecution, but there is one point which you cannot tether the mind ; fetters cannot bind it; tyrants cannot enchain it; dungeons oauoot confine it; it will rise su perior to the power of fato, and aspire to him Who gave it. A BnisoNns RabßAsau. —Rather more than three years since, a printer connected with this journal burled a tiro toad in hig gardcu. It was oovered up about two foot heiow tho surface without anything as a protection against the pressure of the earth, and, on being dug up a few days ago, the loathsome oreatnre, after staring for a moment with its bright, beautiful oyos, leaped away aa nimbly as if it had been orosaing a foot-path. We aro quite aware That toads have been found alive after mare than three years’ confinement, some of them having been found in the heart of rooks, where they mast have remained for thousands of years; but tho experiment rcoorded is nevertheless interesting, as it stfords so additional conflrma tion of ono of the most inexplicable f&ots in ani mated nature. Above the toad’s grave the tlowets of three summers have grown; hearts easo and mint bavo etrnak down their roots to wards' tho reptile, but were far from reaching its narrow honso, in whioh, if undisturbed, it mighthave slept and lived for innumerable agos, till, pwbaps, released by a oonvulsion of nature, raising want was onoe Morayshire from under the waters of the ocean. Man has been oallod the tenant of a olay that—hie lifo, if compared with goolpgioal opophs, ia than instant. It is otherwise with toads that we spurn from our feet, for when buried alive, they have an im mortality whioh may ooutinno till tho elements melt with forvoDtheat, and the whole framework of naiare bo disserved. —Elgin Couram.
