The Merchant' Magazine for August con
tains some interesting facts relative to rail
road property in the Eastern, Middle and
Western States. Its figures relate to the
thirty-seven principal roads. Their com
bined length Is 8,252 j miles. The ag
gregate cost was *495,899,027. The total
earnings for last year was $159,194,587.
Taking out expenses, which were $102,497,
917, and $56,596,670 remained as net prof
its; being $6,886 for each mile of road, or
nearly per cent. on the cost. While
liberal dividends have been made, large
amounts have been appropriated from the
earnings for constructions and equipments,
so that the roads are now in a condition of
comparative completeness, and will hence
forward require lighter appropriations for
these purposes titan in former years.
But, it will not do to assume that the ex
hibit made by other railroads in the Min'
States is equally flattering. These thirty.
seven are the most prosperous ones in the
whole country. A full statement world
probably show an equal amount of railroad
capital on which very light dividends are
paid, or none whatever.
Tax Selma (Ala.) Timea, discussing of
he Tess Oath, says :
"There are not a baker's dozen of old
citizens within the limits of the late Con
federate States of sufficient intelligence
and character to fit them for any position
of honor and trust who can rake it.
"There are more who Sr the sake of of
fice will "throw conscience to the devil,"
and on-allow It; but they are not in any
sense of the word representatives of the
Southern people."
The President's son-in-law, Senator PAT
rcresoN, of Tennessee, must fall within one
or the other of these categories; for he took
the Oath without wincing. Did he "throw
conscience to the devil" for the sake of of
fice? or has he not "sufficient intelligence
and character to fit him fur any position of
honor and trust?"
SUMII.II , IO Vallandigham, iu a
private conversation with a Chicago gen
tleman recently, summed up the political
situation as follows:
"The only question now is whether the
whale shall swallow Jonah nr Jonah the
whale—that is, whether the great Demo
crati pal:y shall swallow the handful
of Johnson men, or the Johnson men shall
swallow the great Democratic party."
All of which, (eays an exchange) must
remind the reader of :Hark' Lemon's lines
in Punch:
"Will the Boa 'bolt' the blanket!
Will the Blanket chola, the Bow I

ten with admiration of the self-denial
evinced by WOOD, VALLANDIGHAM and
'TRAIN, in staying out of the Philadelphia
Convention, offers to emulate it by de-
Mining the Democratic nomination for
Governor. No doubt, seeing already the
hand, writing on the wall, he is anxious to
escape the inconveniences of a defeat.
Like his prototypes, he wants to make a
show of disinterestedness in backing out
where he sees no way of getting in.

ed at Cleveland, has accepted an invitation
to address the Allegheny County Agricul
tural Society at the next Fair, to be held
from the 18th to the 31st of September, and
will discourse about sheep and other
things. No doubt the managers will give
timely notice of the day and hour he will
speak.
A REPUBLICAN MASS CONVENTION' was
held at West Chester on the 14th inst. Mr.
BROOMALL, the member of Congress for
that district, made the main speech. A.

in Chicago has made restitution to the gov

to make the small plunderers come down.

plunderers disgorge.
Corth.rarozinzays, living in Philadel -

of politics there, assure us that the Repub

Republican-majority.
Mn. Szweno is the only member of the
Cabinet who will accompany the President
to Chicago. Some members of the house

their sedentary employments for others of o
more active kind; but this ts by no means cer
tain. lialsttnal costiveness la a very obstinate
disorder. All the ordinary so-called remedies
Invariably aggravate it. Nothing can be more
Injurious than the continued use of strong
aperients. They at first Irritate, and finally
almost perulyre the bowels—rendering them
so torpid that enormous doses of. cathartic
medicines have no effect upon them. A mild
aperient, combined with a gentle stimulant. is
the trite remedy; and a combination In the
happiest proportion of these ingredients is
found In HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT
TERS. This famous Stomachic invigorates
the whole intestinal canal, while quietly re
moving from Ms convolutions all Impediments
to a free passage through them. No mere pur
gative has this double operation. lie ordinary
stimulant effects the desired object. Cases of
Constipation abandoned as hopeless by dis
tinguished medical men have been cured in a
few weeks by the Bitters. To those who have
tried all the medicines of the dispensatory In
vain, we say try this Irresistible stimulant and
' aperient. There is no sudlcient reason why
constipation should be the .consequence of se
dentary habits. HOSTETTER'S HITTERS, by
su.rilying the vigor which would otherwise
be derived from exercise, will in all cases ens
hie the system to perform Its excretory func

tions of principles and purposes on which
they hive with perfect unanimity, agreed:
We hail with gratitude to Almighty
Glni the mid lit the war and the return of
peace to on afflicted and Issloved land.
Second, The war Just closed has maintained
the authority of the Constitution with all the
powers which It centers and all the restric
tions which it imposes upon the General Gov
ernment unatindged and unaltered, and it has
preaurved the Union with the equal rights,
dignity and authority of the States perfect and
tutitnpalred.
Third, Representation In the Congress of the
United States anti in the Electoral College is a
right recognized by the ernietitiltiOn
abl.llng In every Edam, and as a duty itrilMSed
upon Its people, fundamental In its nature and
.600 Lial to the exercise of our republican in
stitutions, and neither Congress nor the Gen.
firm! Government has any authority or power
to deny this right to any or withhold Its en
joyment under the Constitution from the peo
ple thereof.
'berth. We call upon the people of the
United elutes to elect to Congress as members
thereof none but men who admit this Cumin
mental right of representation, and who will
receive to seats the loyal representatives
from every State In allegiance to the United
States subject to the eonidltuttonal right of

Government, nor prohibited by it to the States,
era reserved to the States or the people there
of; and among the rights thus reserved to the
States iS the right to prescribe qualifications
for the elective Innichise therein, which right
Congress cannot interfere with. No State or
convention of States has a right to withdraw
from the Colon or to exclude through their
action in Congress or othe..wise any - State or
Territory from the Union. The union of these
Status is perpetual.
Sixth, Such amendments to the Con

After the vote had been taken on the adop
tion of the foregoing declaration of princi
ples, it was found that the reading of the sev
enth one had been omitted by accident, and
this fact was announced by Senator Doolittle.
It was then read and adopted with great ap
plause and unanimity. The declaration 01
principles woe then adopted as u whole with
enthusiastic cheers. After the adoption three
cheers were called for and given in tile most
enthusiastic manner for Senator Cowan, Of
Pennsylvania.
Senator Cowan acknowledged the compli

guished guests would address It, by virtue of
authority unanimously derived from the
Committee on Resolutions and Address, name
