O:' 'OUR. COUNTY COMMIT-
The Democratic County Committee of cor
respondence meets by adjournment on Satur
day next, the 31st inst., at eleven o'olock, at
the St. Charles Hotel. The important duty
of arranging the preliminaries of the ap
proaching fall campaign devdlves upon this
Committee, and every member of it should
attend the meeting on Saturday. The
t ap
position have had their ticket . in the field
long enough to give us a thorough appreci
ation of its weakness, and it is now time
for the Democracy to take action and present
a ticket composed of our strongest, bet and
most popular mcn, with whom we can beat
the mongrel party which opposes us. The
quicker our ticket is in the field now, the
better.
TIIE ehroniele misinterprets 'our article in
regard to the Congressional nominations. The
Democracy will always delight to honor the
" Old Silver Grey," but for Congressman in
the 21st district this fall, they favor one who
has served long and well in their ranks—
Hon Charles Shaler.
Hon. A. Lincoln and Hon. Stephan A.
Donless
After Judge Dougtas, and Mr. Lincoln had
both spoken at Chicago, as well as at some
other points in the State, and' after the Dem
ocratic State Central Committee had made
out their programme for Democratic meetings
all over the State, commencing at Clinton, Ju
ly 27th and ending at Atlanta on the last of
October, Mr. Lincoln sends a note to Mr.
Douglas, to make an arrangement for both
gentlemen to divide the time'and address the
same endience's during the canvass. In re
ply, Mr. Douglas states that he, in conjunc
tion with the State committee, " made a list
of appointments covering the entire period
until late in October. The people of the sev
eral localities blve been notified of the times
of the meetings. Those appointments have
all been made for' Democratic' meetings, and
arrangements have been made by which the
Democratic candidates for Congress fur the
Legislature, and other offices will be present
and address the people. It is evident, there
fore, that these various candidates, in con
nection with myself, will occupy the whole
time of the day and evening, and have no op
portunity for other speeches." Ho also
speaks of the probability of there being yet
a third candidate in the field who will claim
an equal right to be hard, Having premised
these reasons, Judge Douglas concludes his
reply to Mr. Lincoln's challenge as follows:
"While, under those circumstances I do Lot feel
at liberty to make any arrangement that would
deprive the Democratic candidates for Congress,
State officcers, and the Legislature, from par
ticipating in the discussions of the v.hrious n:oet•
ings designated by ths Democratic State Cen
tral Committee, I will, in order to accommodate
you as far as it is in my power to do so, take the
responsibility of making an arrangement with
you for a disenst,ion between us at t. 'prominent
point in each crtncre.ssional d'strict it. the State,
except the second and sixth district's, where w,
have both spoken, end in each of which cases 7ou
had the concluding speech. If agreeable to yonl
will indicate the tollowing places II!f those most
suitable in the several Congressional Districts at
which we should speak, to wit 3?reepor•t, Ot
tawa, Galesburg, Quincy, Alton, Jonesboro r.nd
Charleston. I wil: confer with ycti at the earli
est convenient opportunity in regard to the mole
of conducting the debate, the times of meeting
at the several places, subject to the c..udition
that where appointments have already been made
by the Democratic State Central Committee at
any of those places, I must insist upc.n ou n.:ct
ing me at the time specified. "
Gold in Vermont
We always thought the Yankees would find
gold at last among the rugged hills of New
England. A correspondent of the New York
Courier tells of the operations of a Califor
nian who is digging gold at Minister's Brook,
on the side of Worcester Mountain, Vermont.
He bought the right to work four milos of the
creek for five years, and has three flumes and
several men engaged at digging and washing
'gold. He has found in one instance a nug
get weighing two ounces the ore is general
ly. however, in smaU particies;but very fine.
He does not tell how much he makes per day,
but it is thought that he realizes four or five
dollars per man employed. He says he does
not do as well as he did in California, but the
yield is better as he goes up the creek. Gold
is also being dug in Stew, on the other side of
the mountain, as well as at lifyinouth, fifty
miles below Montpelier.
Banket.
The courts of New Jersey are about to close
up the Bank of Trade and Ocean County
Bank, at Tom's river; the:Stock Security
Bank and the Bergen Courky Rank, at llack
ensnack-Ahe Merchants' Bank, at Patterson :
and the Artizan Bank, ht T renton, Locause of
the recent report of the Bank Commissioners,
made to the Chancellor, that, in their opinion,
neither of these banks is transacting a legiti
mate banking business. The notes of these
banks are all secured by ample deposit in the
State Treasury, so that there will be no loss
upon their circulation.

Scotch Water Pipes vs. Pennsylvania
Water, Pipes.
Some of the newspapers in this city and
State have commented severely upon the
general Government and its agents, because
a contract ha j d been given to some Scotch
manufacturers of water pipes, fora supply for•
the aqueduct at Washington. The com
ments have elicited the following reply from
Chief Engineer Meigs, which is sharp and to
the point. He says:
" An advertisement for the materials and work
needed to complete the aqueduct was published
fir two months, under toe laws of Congress.
This advertisement engaged that the lowest re
rpcnsible bider should have the contract, and
the contract for the remainder of the iron pipes,
r_ua..ly miles of which had been already furniThed
by a citizen of Camden, N. .1.. under a former
contract, was awarded to a citizen of Philadel
phia, M.. Lawrence Myers. Thus were all par
ties treated with cqua.l fairness, and the inter
eea
cf United :Rates, which pays for the
pile , . protected. Tho price is low. The con
tr .-t i= too large :a be filled by one man's means
iit the requirtd time, and Mr. Myers negotiates
with the great iron masters of Philadelphia to
him ; but I suppose, for I know nothing
or the mutter, he finds their prices too high for
kii3 contract, and soaks better terms abroad
"If this be so, woo is to blame? Is it the en
gineer, who, acting under the laws, invited fair
c mpetition, the contractor who seeks to make
the best terms he can, or the Philadelphia man•
uftotures, who allow a Scotch firm three thous
and mile° off to undersell them at their own
doors ?
'' I hope that the contractor will sucaeed in
making or purchasing his pipes iu this country.
No oae more than myself would regret to see the
capitol supplied with water through pipes not of
our own manufacture, but certainly i cannot in
terfere in the private business of a contractor,
and it was my duty to award the contract to the
lowest bidder. He happens to be a Philadel
phisa.
" While the officers of the Government have no
right to pcy out more of the money intrusted to
them, in order tr):,•ecute American iron, the man
tif.act,.rers who complain have a perfect right to
abate their prices, so as to keep the work in this
country, and they would show more patriotism
than by complaining of the contractor who fol
lows his interest, or. of the engineer who has
done his duty."

30 years. Next to Benton stands Wm. R. Ring,;
who served continually from 1819 to 1844, a
period of 25 years, and again from 1848 to 1845,
a.period of 4 years more, and making in all 29
years. Henry Clay served about 15 years, but
from the time of his first entering the Senate in

The Leviathan and the Atlantic Cable
The cause of the failure thus far we cannot
even conjecture. The American ship brings the
news home, and if its people had simply stated
that the breakago was not ou their side, and that
all they knew about It was the cessation of the
signals from the Agamemnon, we should natu
rally have concluded that it was at the latter ship.
When, however, they add to this that the elec
tricians on board had experimented en the bro
ken cable, and, had thereby arrived at the conclu
sion that the breakage must have been at or near
the Agamemnon, they take the matter altogether
odt of the depth of the unlearned public, and
le vo na to imagine or suspect anything we
pl ase. If it is possible to measure over so ap
pr ximatoly the length of a wire by electrical ex
periments at one end, then we have nothing to
dc but wonder at the progress of science and
ar•t. But wo wait for further information, par
ticularly from the people on board the Agamem
non.
The electrical conditions of the problem being
known, this is only a mechanical question, with
no other chances of uncertainty than those of
en ordinary roartitie character, winds, waves,
currents, and what rosy be called the deep-sea
anchorage on which the cable hat to rest. With
regard, then, to the mechamcsi difficulties, and
to the provisions made against them, it cannot
be said that this trial was a very hopeful one.—
Two ships gave a double chance of failure.—
Each was evidently unequal to its moiety of the
work, having neither proper stowage room for
the cable nor for ..ho proper quantity of coils.—
The Niagara left our shores so deep in the water
as to excite migivings in all who saw her; and
then we were told, though the Agamemnon
looked better, she was, in fact, a ship of lees
tonnage.
The paying out the tackle and the brake had
been proved with a success which tho scientific
alone could appreciate. The speculation was,
that just now we ehould probably have the At
lantic at its calmest, which, as it turns out, has
not been the case. To judge from the picture
of the expedition as it sailed from our shores,
the Agamemnon and Niagara so filled with their
huge freight that the gigantic coils spread from
the hold into every guuroom, gangway, and cab
in, we were relying too ranch on the favor of
the elements, and laying ourselves at the mercy
of their caprice. It is premature, indeed, to say
that we have been beaten by the elements ; but
the next attempt ought to combine every precau
tion suggested by the past.
A suggestion has been made several times to
these columns, and seems to us worth consider
ing. The Leviathan is as yet only a shell. Ex
cepting that it has not even her engines on
board, it is exactly in that state, to which, at
great difficulty and cost, the Agamemnon and
Niagara have been reduced for this service. In
the Leviathan, any length of cable that could
be possibly required could be held and stowed
in the manner most convenient for paying cut.
The pitch of that huge vessel will be quite in
considerable in the roughest seas, and the
strains cn the cabin wi'l be therefore uniform.
Sufficient length reny .13 on board for the
most lavish use of the c , frle, to even twice the
distance from one shore to the other.
It is plain we must not be stingy of material
if we aro to succeed. The ipgenieue writers
who enlightened the public out the wonders of
the deep, toll us that:carrentEi carry the ()able
miles out of the ship's course before it touches
the bottom ; that, ever so freely payed out, the
cable probably hangs in festoons from ono sub
marine mountain top to another; and that,
even if the cable is so fortunate as to escape the
sharp edge of a precipice, mere suspension be
tween two distant points may stretch it beyond
its strength. If this be ea, the more cable we
have, within reason, the better.
N.) ship afloat but the Leviathan could carry
ample supply for the whole distance. It &lane
could carry coals sufficient for paying out the
whole cable at the rate of five, four, and three
miles an hour, if necessary, and could afford,
even in the midst of the process, to make any
delay that might le thought advisable. What
ever may he thought of this suggestion, we feel
assured that nobody really expects much from
a fleet of four ships:sailing out to rendezvous in
the middle of the Atlantic to lay down one cable
—all the ships confessedly overlasked, and all
of them reckoning upon good weather and other
favorable circumstances. There is a unity and
simplicity about the undertaking that ill accord
with so complex and hazardous a process.
This is the cry of several of the Opposition
journals against Wyilli©m A. Porter, the Dem.
ocratic candidate for Judge of the Supreme
Court.
When the elder Pitt, at the ago of 25, became
Primo Minister of Eng.l j and—and ho proved to
be a head and shoulder& taller in intellect and
power than any of hie cotemporaries—was ao
cused, to use his own language, of " the atro
cious crime of being a young man," he content
ed himself with wishing that he "might be one
of those whoga, follies may cease with their
youth,.and notone of those who are ignorant
iu spite of-experience." Mr. Pitt only uttered
the sentiment of all Sensible men—that neither
age nor youth in itself makes fitness or unfitness
for station,' bet that qualification is, and should
be, the only true criterion. An old goat is none
the more venerable for his gray beard. In
stances innumerable occur in the history of our
own end other countries, in ancient and modern
times, where youth showed itself infinitely su,-
perion to old ago. Alexander the Great had
conquered the then known world before he was
30 years of age. Napoleon defeated the ar
mies of, Austria, commanded by her most dis
tinguished and veteran Generals, at the age of
27. Washington was appointed to the chief
command of the . Revolutionary army at 43.
Hamilton was Secretary of the Treasury when
but little past 30. Henry Clay was elected to
the 11. S. Senate at the age of 29. The late
Chief Justice Gibson, of this State, was appoint
ed to the Supreme Bench when not more than 30.
William Bigler was elected Governor at 88.—
Judge Knox was on the Supreme Bench at 35.
Summerfield was the most eloquent and impres
sive pulpit orator at the age of 24. And so we
might go on and enumerate, ad infinitum, the
names of distinguished soldiers, statesmen, di
vines, etc., all of whom made their mark on the
country and the world's history long before they
had reached the meridian of life. We admit that
many men do not reach their full powers cf in
tellect and exper'enco until they are sixty or up-
wards—but, on the other hand, many are older
in these respects at 30 than their ootemporaries
at 60.
Judge Porter, the Democratic candidate, is 37
years of age, at least seven years older than the
late distinguished Judge Gibson when he vent
upon the Bench. It is admitted on all hands, by
political friends and opponents, that he is a man
of superior intellectual powers and of great le
gal learning:and ability. Such is the judgment
of those who had business before the Supreme
Court sinoe he has been a member of it. Kind
and amiable in his deportment to the members
of the Bar, and of high moral character, he is,
in all respects, a model Judge, and, with a few
years experience, would take rank with any of
the able Jurists who have preoecded him at the
head of that Court. That he will be elected is,
we think, beyond a doubt.
Singular Case of Wrong Conviction.
One of the most remarkable as s in the
whole history of English Grim' al law was the
trial and conviction of Mr. B rher, the solicit
er, at the Old Bailey, in April, 1844, on a charge
of forgery. Ho was sentenced to transporta
tion for life, and was sentenced to Norfolk Island,
at that time the worst of the penal colonies.
Mr. Be:ber suffered great misery from the char
acter and conduct of his associates—the wor:
in the three kingdoms. Lately extraodi ary
circumstances have led to the proof of his nno
canoe, followed by a "free pardon," and his re
turn to England. Of course his conviction led
to the disappearance of his name from the roll
of attorneys practising in the Superior Courts,
and when he came back his restoration to the
list was the first object of his solicitude. Even
this was up hill work. But every step which
he made to raise himself to the position from
which he had been eo iniquitously and unex
pectedly hurried, only served to place the proof
of his innocence and the injustice of which be
had been the victim in a stronger light, until at
length the Court of Queen's bench, by its unan
imous decision in his favor, showed how cruelly
Mr. Barber had been treated by society throught
its legal and accredited agent. A committee of
'fie House of Commons moved to indemnify him
for his losses.

DR. hPLANE'S LIVER PILLS.—When the pro
prietors, Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., of this
invaluable remedy purchased it of the inventor, there was
no medicine which deserved the name, for the cure of Liver
and Bilious complaints, notwithstanding the great preys,
lence of these diseases in the United States. In the South
and West particularly, where the patient is frequently un
able to obtain the services of a regular physician, some rem
edy was required, nt once sato and effectual, and the oper
ation of which could in no SOHO prove prejudicial to the con
stitution. Thle medicine is supplied by Dr. NPLane's Liver
Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, as ha i been
proved in every instance in which it has had a trial. Al
ways beneficial, not a solitary instance has ever occurred in
which its effects have been injurious. The invention of an
educated std distinguished physician, it has nothing in
eommcn with the quack nostrums impose I upon the public
by shallow pretenders to the medical art. Experience has
now proved, beyond a doubt, that Dr. M'Lane's Pill is the
List remedy aver proposed fir the Liver Complaint.
atttit' Purchasers will be careful to ask for ,Dr. Pit'LANE'S
CELEBRATED LIVER PIT, S, manufactured by FLEMING
BRCS., of Pittsburgh, Pa. There are other Pills purporting
to be Liver Pills, now before the public. Dr. M'Lsne's genuine
Liver Pills, also his celebrated Vormifuge, can now be had at
