The Constitutional Convention re assembled in Philadelphia on yester day, (ICth.) Its first business will be to elect a presiding officer in place of lion. W. M. Meredith, deceased. The Republicans will also have to elect another member of the Conven tion to supply the vacancy occasioned by Mr. Meredith's death. The election of Governor oyes, Republican, in Ohio, is claimed by his friends as being assured by 30,- 000 majority. The struggle for con trol of the Legislature and the Uni ted States Senatorship dependent thereon will be more animated than for State officers. Secretary Delano's friends persistently deny that he is a candidate for Senator, and say that he has expressly prohibited the use of his name.

The Democrats are again disap pointed in their hopes of carrying, or greatly reducing the Republican ma jority in Maine. The vote this year was light but Maine, ever true to Republican principles, has elected a Republican candidate for Governor by a majority as large as usual in proportion to the vote cast, and every thing else Republican that was voted for, except here and there a member of the Legislature. Other States will follow the example, and when the elections are all over the Democ racy will find that they have retro graded rather than advanced. The reduction of the State debt during tho last month, to the amount of five hundred thousand dollars, is an eloquent and irrefutable argument in favor of the re-election of the pre sent State Treasurer, Mr. Mackey. A reduction of the State debt means a reduction of taxes, and the Treas urer whose able financial manage ment has already brought about this desirable event, is the right man in the right place, and the people will so determine at the coming election. When the Republican party came into power in this State, its debt ex ceeded forty millions of dollars, and the youngest among our politicians will remember the grinding taxation to which all were subject. Steadily, year after year, has this debt been reduced, and the burthen of taxation lifted off the shoulders of the people until now deducting the nine mil lions of railroad bonds in the Treas ury, which are payable by install ments every year, and on which the railroads pay the interest the actual debt of the Commonwealth is only seventeen millions of dollars. Day light is therefore plainly in view, and with a continuance of the present able financial management of our State Treasury, a few years will see the State out of debt, aud its people entirely relieved from taxation, ex cept such as they impose upon them selves for county and other local pur poses. In voting for Mr. Mackey, therefore, the people are simply vot ing to relieve themselves from debt and taxation. Juihje Ludlow, wno was very much surprised at his nomination for Supreme Judge by the Democratic State Convention, accepts it, never theless, as a matter of " duty." lie is no doubt prqared to take his de feat, which we do not think will be a ' 6urprise" "to him, in the same way. Mr. Hutchinson, the Democratic candidate for State Treasurer, "feels that his nomination "is a call not to be declined," and, therefore, he also accepts the martyrdom thrust upon him. Constant defeat bas accomplished its legitimate work, and although the Democratic party may not be dead, as some few of its old adherents in sist, vet utter demoralization has taken possession of the dispirited and disjointed survivors of that once victorious and aggressive host The practical surviving members feel that they can no longer existon the mouldy traditions of past greatness, they want officers and the emoluments at tached thereto, and the "venerated name" and "time honored principles" wilt be whistled down the wind, and the tattered banners cast aside and abandoned, so soon as there is a pos sible hope of success under any other name or organization. The pur blind Bourbons have lost even their animal instincts, and will go dewn with the old hulk, bnt the practical survivors are fast drifting into other organizations under other names, well knowing that the people are de termined never again to trust the so- called Democratic party with power. Thus in Illinois the old Democratic organization is well nigh abandoned, and is almost extinct. At the elec tion of last year there were forty-five counties which gave Democratic ma jorities. In only twelve of these have the Democrats mafo nomina tions this year. ' ta sixteen they have formally disbanded tueir organiza tion; in siht they have called con ventions which are expected to do nothing except disband, and in the remaining cine countici the situation is uncertain. So ia it throughout the Western and Southern States. "Anti-monopolists, Peoples' party, Conservatives," and other new organizations under other names, are arising and fast ab sorbing all bnt the Bourbon clement of the late Democratic party. There can be no doubt in tee mind or an ordinarily shrewd observer, that the old Democratic party as an efficient political organization is in the throes of dissolution. Constant, continuous defeat such as it has encountered for years, is bound to destroy any organ ization, and it is a question of but a few months' time, until this ancient but bad smelling party has passed awav. ore wasiiinutos letter. Washington, D. C. Sept. 11, 1S63. The weather is delightfully cool. Saratoga trunks are finding their way to our city rapidly. The streets are again being filled with the gay and festive. Businessof all kinds is look ing up, aud soon, it is hoped, the New York creditors, who are so gen erous in trusting our business men, will receive their anticipated stamps. Rents are still high, although very much less than in New York and Philadelphia. This being the long session of Congress, it is reported tnat several members nave written for houses, with a view of bringing their families to Washington. While the grangers are fighting the railroad monopolies and working up a great and important problem in civilization, it would be well for them to consider some important facts in re gard to their own statues of produc tion. The census shows that one- fifth of the population of the great corn and wheat region of the North west are engaged in agriculture, yet their industry is mostly confined to those in cererals, and to the produc tion of beef and pork: Therefore thev arc unburdened with food pro ducts, the money value of which de-j pends upon the demands of a distant market. The railroad monopolies nnd opto temptation and opportuni ty in the necessities of transportation. However, nature, according to its present principles, can scarcely be ex pected to withstand this temptation. w ouid it not be far better to engage a portion of the capital and labor employed in this great surplus cereal production in the production of oth er agricultural staples sugar beets, for instance? ' . The revolution in the world's pro duction and exchange is indicated by some significant facts lately transpir ing. Among them is the order of a Liverpool firm upon a Pennsylvania iron establishment for one hundred tons of merchant bar iron. . We have hitherto been dependent upon Eng land for our supplies of this metal, so important to our industrial and com mercial interests. That dependence is now a thiog of, tho past, and the case is being rapidly reversed. When once an iron interest is thor oughly organized we can dispense with a protective tariff, and that ques tion will be at rest: .. , TLe payment of the Alabama In demnity fund has given rise to a question as to Low it shall be held in trust for the parties for whom . it is paid. Shall it be invested in nation al securities of various denomina tions, or shall one large bond be ex ecuted for the whole amount $15, 500,000. It will then resemble the Navy Pension Fund, except that the latter bears interest at only three per cent, in currency, while the Alabama una draws six per cent in gold. l nc railroad war is waxtnr shari). versified each rear, and that wealth a id pro?perity are proportionately on tie increase. ' The effort to keep up the gold pre mium to its extravagant rates be comes daily a matter of increasing dimcultv. and threatens to smash so.nio bod v's toes erelong. : Thupay ment of thirteen millions from the Treasury for the redemption of called bonds has thrown upon the market fresh supply of the precious metals which can not fail to embarrass theso operators to a very serious extent. To accomplish their object thev are now organizing a movement tor frefh supplv of greenbacks : but pub lie sentiment is too strongly opposed to this movement for us success. The courso pursued bv Genera Butler vestcrdav is commended here, When h"c found he could not succeed hea cquic.eed. The only puzzle in the whole affair is his endorsement of h own condemnation in the salary grab. His opposition, of course, would Lave been to no avail, and the triumph over him would have oeen serious. All is well that ends well, But "old Ben" is not bottled yet. Like Jack in the box, he is bound t pop up often. When Bill Tweed was in Congress, several rears since, after a wine sup per he became quite talkative with several M. C's who were on the make, in a small wav, and before leaving them he remarked that he could 2-0 back taNew York Citv and make more out of a ferry company than in all the petty stealings in Washington such as denominated stationary stoalin?. At that tune, however, it is questionable whether Tweed knew or even anticipated the avenues of wealth to the extent that he has realized. The Republic, published here, is daily growing in importance. Sub scriptions are coming inrapidlv. Its efforts and aims certainly arc most laudable. Its virtues are becoming more apparent with the issuing of each number. It is becoming household companion to thousands of families; more especiallv is it prized by farmers and mechanics. The genuine and spurious five hun hundred dollar notes are being photo graphed at the expense of the Treas ury Department. A copy of each will be sent to all the United States depositories and national banks in the United States, so the banks will have no excuse for being imposed up on. There will soon be awarded the contract for supplying head stones for two hundred aud sixty thousand soldiers interred in the different ceme teries of the countrv. There arc on ly fourteen, out of the one hundred bids which aggregate within the one million appropriated for that pur pose. The Secretary has concluded to award to several of the bidders, due regard being had to the location of those marble works which are in proximity to cemeteries. Mr. Wm. Sanders, one of the found ers of the Patrons of Husbandry is stricken down with the typhoid fever, and his recovery is doubtful. Mr. Saunders is a Scotchman by birth, and served several years as a gar dener in his native country. He is now chief gardener in the Agricultur al Department. He, apparently, is not ambitious for office or honors, and opposes any attempt of any mem ber of the Patrons of Husbandry be ing pat into office on the strength of him belonging to that order. The tremendous outside pressure that has long been brought to bear upon Congress to allow the registry of foreign-built vessels is being rapid ly scheduled by the rising activity of American ship-building. The revi val of the interest in wooden ships gives special advantages to tbiscoun try, where immense quantities of ship timber are accessible. England Ends ber imported timber annually enlarging the margin of coBt in ship building, and hence is able to prevent but a declining competition every year. Some of tho more sanguine advocates of American industry pre diet that another twelve months of progress will bring our American ship-building up to its anti-war propor tions. LIFE. Baltimore, September 10. At about half past one this morning an alarm was sounded, and in a few mo ments a volume of flam burst forth from the Hollidav street theatre, en- velonin that building in a mass of fire. The flames poured out simulta neously from the roof and upper win idows, and before- the steamers, got to work it wad evident that the "Old. Hollidav" was doomed to destruction. In less than five minutes after the alarm sounded the central portion of the city was lit up as by a great calcium liht. Up Lexington street to Charles, on Monument square, oa Baltimore stroet from Froderick to north as the Northern Central depot,the re flection of the lurid flames was so in tense as to create the impression that a general conflagration had begun. A deluge of flaming cinders rolled up from the burning mass, and was born by a gentle breeze from the northeast into' the heart of the city, to a dis tance of five or six blocks. Over the roofs of the Sun, American, Gazelle and Western Union telegraph offices and adjacent buildings great blazing cinders rained down a sheet of tire. Many awnings of tho stores of Balti more and South streets caught from the fiery shower of embers, and at three o'clock the streets were bril liantly illuminated by burning can vas, adding to the general consterna tion. . Baatimore, September 10. The entire fire department was vigorously at work as soon as the alarm was sounded, but all their efforts to save the theatre was unavailing. Shortly after three o'clock the roof fell in, and at four o'clock only the bare walls were left standing. The theatre and some adjoing property were purchased three years ago by John T. Ford, manager, for $100,000. Tho damage by lire will reach about $t5,000, on which there is an insurance of $40,000, prin cipally in city companies. The St. Nicholas hotel, adjoining the theatre on the north, was a large four story building, W. 11. W. Earl, proprietor, patronized almost exclu sively by actors and actresses, per forming at the Ilolliday, Front, and Baltimore opera houses, about fifty of whom were in the building at the time of the fire. The rear portion of the fourth story was entirely burned out and all the lower floors deluged with water. Many of the guests were forced to escape with nothing on but their clothes. Some of the actresses lost their wardrobes, watches, money, jewelry, etc., but a majority succeed ed in saving their cnects, which, with the furniture of the hotel that was rescued from the flames were, piled up in the streets. Mr. Earl estimates his loss at about $20,000. and cives his insurance as follows: Pennsylvania, of Phila delnhia. $1,500: Westchester, of New York, $2,500 ; German, of Bal timore. $2,500. The total insurance is $10,000. The building was own ed by William J. Albert The Balti more City college, adjoining on me south, had the roof and unper floor burned, and the whole building dam aced bv water. 1 he first lloor was occupied by the board of school com missioners, and the second and third floors by the Baltimore City College. The damage to books by water is es timated at $3,000. The furniture and carpets arc also damaged. The loss of books, furniture, etc., will amount to $5,000. The building was owned by the city and was not insured, l he mat tress and curled hair factory of Frey, Walpcrt ii Co., No. 28 North Gray street, in the rear of the theatre, owned by the firm, who estimate their loss in stock and damage to the building between $15,000 and $20,- 000. The. insurance is not over s, 000, divided among the Queen's, of London, German, of Baltimore, and Etna, of Hartford. The roof of the building No. 2 South street, adjoin- mg the western union leiegrapo company, took nrc ironi iwung cin ders and was slightly damaged. The upper part was occupid by Flynn & Charles Hamers, who estimate their loss by water at $3,000. Insured for $1,000. The first floor was occupied by Diggs, coal agent, whose loss is trifling. A number of other build ings were saved by sweeping the burninjr embers from the roofs. Tbe Trn-AllrKbcBy 'kI. Cumberland, Md., Sept. 10 The Convention in the interest of the pro posed Trans-Allegheny canal assem bled this morning in this city. The great interest felt, both East and West, in the project, is shown by the largo cttendancc of prominent, per sons. So great was the jam that the hotels could not accominoJatc the throng, and only by the hospitality of tbe'eitizens were" all the visitors provided for.

Although it was intended that the Convention should be held in Belvi dcre Hall, the large attendance re quired more capatioiis quartet s and consequently the Board of Trade Hall was used. At 11 A. M. the commit tee appoint ed by the Board of Trade waited up on the visitors at the Queen City Ho tel, and invited them to the rooms of the Board. The committee was composed of the following gentlemen : W. A. Withers, J. B. II. Campbell, F Haley, R. D. Johnson, J. II. Gordon, Jacob Brcngle, W. W. McKaig, W. R. George of Fayette Co.; Hon. John Ritchie, of Frederick, Md.; Hon. Patrick Ilaniill, of Oakland, Md. Thetpeech es wero largely made up of statistics showing tho necessity, feasibility and cheapness of the canal extension. The best of feeling and tbe greatest enthusiasm wns manifested. ' Though nothing definite was done toward the object of the Convention beyond the appointment of tho committee, it is believed that tho impulse given to the great enterprise by the large meeting of heavy capitaliot will carry it to a successful issue. The Convention adjourned at 0:30 oVlock, subject to the call of President Blair. New AdnrrtUemznU.

Crawford adjourned tho district cotirtat Winns borotigh, Franklin parish, till Tues day, lie accompanied District At torney Arthur JI. Harris to Colum bia, Caldwell parish, and they spent Sunday at that place. They started from Columbia on their return to Winnriborough on Monday morning. When twelve miles southeast oh Winsborough they were waylaid by four men in ambush in tho middle of a dense thicket several miles in ex tent and murdered in cold blood. Judge Crawford was shot in five places in the head and body, ond it is thought he struggled with the assas sins.ts his head was slightly bruised and mangled. Mr. Harris was shot in the buck of his head and in his thigh aud his horse was shot from under him. It is thought the murders were committed by a party of despera does known as Tom Wain's gang. The leader of the gang was tried at the last term of court before Judge Crawford, at Columbia, for murder, and was convicted, being prosecuted by District Attorney Harris. He made his escape from jail before his sentence and bas made repeated threats that he would kill the judge and prosecuting attorney. The peo ple of the parish are indignant, and a large number of men are in pursuit. It is thought that the murderers will be overtaken within twenty-four hours.

Accident at a Celebration. A family Tragedy. Kentucky papers give an account of a deadlv enmitv which has exist ed between two brothers, named Jas per and Clay Wadklns, for a year or two past, and has resulted in the Mur der of the latter by the wife . of th former. The Burksville Courier of the 5th inst says' that Clay was bad ly wounded on the 27th nit., and con tinues: , " It is not known positively wheth er J asper fired tho shot referred to or his wife, as both were np stairs in the room from which the shot came. At any rate, Clay, as he was leaving his mother's house, received the contents or a double barreled shot gun in tbe hands of either Jasper Wadkins or his wifo.

The teacher was Mr. Alfred Alexan der, aged forty Tears, and the stu dent, Mr. John II. Moss, aged about twenty-one. Tho wife of the teach cr was accustomed to observe the de portment of the pupils, and when they were guilty of any breach of de coruin, to report them to her husband for reproof or other punishment. She reported young Moss, who de nied the charge made by her, and this led to an animated and angry dispute. Alexander became enraged at the young man tor the part taken bv hun in the controvcrsy.and advan cing toward Moss, drew a knife and stabbed him in the breast. Moss thereupon plunged a dagger into Alexander's heart, who fell fatally wounded. ' Moss turned to leave, but Mrs. Alexander, who was at tbe side of her husband, wrung the knife from nis nana, ana aamimstereu one or two severe cuts to Moss in the back, near the region of the spine. The result was that both lay mor tally wounded on tbe scene of the conflict, and expired in a short time, the one within three minutes of the other. It is , not definitely ' known whether Moss died from the wounds received from the wife or husband, as all were severe, and reasonably suffi cient to produce death.'

A ne gro named Bell Bruce was arrested here a few days ago charged with se ducing a young white girl near Cali fornia, Moniteau county, and Sheriff Qarnall, of that couuty, telegraphed tbe Chief of .Police here to hold Bruce until he could send an officer for him. Sheriff Garnall now tele graphs the police here not to hold Bruce; as he does not think bc.t he should be taken back. This action is explained by the police here on the theory that if Bruce wa3 taken to California, that Sheriff Garnall could not protect him, against a mob of lynchers. It is also asserted here that Garnall has acted under the ad vice of Governor Wtiodson, but what ground there is for this assertion is not definitely known.
