TUE DEMOCRATIC CONVEMTION
As our readers will learn from the pro•
ceedings of the Democratic County Committee
of Correspondence published above, the an•
nual Democratic County Convention to pre
pare for the approaching fall campaign will
be held on the 18th of August, the delegates
to' be elected on Saturday the 14th.
The meeting of the Committee was largely
attended, and a spirit of unanimous determi
nation to uphold and contend for the great
and only true principles of National Democ
racy prevailed. In the unity of purpose ex
hibited in our own ranks, and in the hot dis
sentious among the opposition, the Democrats
of Allegheny County have much to hope for.
Let us place a strong ticket in the field, and
even with the odds, which are against, us, we
shall elect some, if not, all of it.
It will to observed that the Committee have
recommended to the people in the several dis
tricts to instruct their delegates to vote in Con_
tion rixa, c,ce instead of by marking. This
is the method pursued in the State Conven
tions of our party, and among the Democrats
of most of the counties in the State. It saves
time and prevents confusion. We hope when
the Convention meets, it may adopt this rec
ommendation of the Committee as it will save
the confusion and hurried voting incident
heretofore to the close of our Conventions,
when the delegates from the country are anx
ious to return to their homes. It is a truly
Democratic method of making nominations,
for no Democrat will hesitate to speak out
his preferences. The question of changing
the man nez of making nominations from
marking to voting viva rove has been brought
very properly beforS the people by the Com
mittee, and we have no doubt that they will
instruct their delegates in Convention to make
the change, for it is a most desirable une.

been since its start. This exhausts the $lOOO
guarantee against-loss, given to Mr. Kenne
dy. Fortunately the long rent rolls of those
who back the concern, are able to stand an
other levy. The True Press is published for
the rich, not the poor, and let the rich pay for
it. The wooden man will make their amuse
ment rather expensive before he quits them.
TIM DEDI.OOII.ATIO STATE CONVEN
TION OF 01.110.
On Thursday last, the Democrats of Ohio met
in State Convention at Columbus. The Conven
tion was composed of the best material of the
party, and the best spirit was manifested
throughout the proceedings. A general desire
prevailed for Democratic harmony upon the
basis of Democratic principles. The truly
national spirit of the men who composed the
convention devoted its energies to the great
end and-aim of union and harmony in the
party. Their highest purpose appears to
,have been to consolidate the party—to make
the Democracy of Ohio a unit in design and
purpose. The platform of resolutions adopted
is an admirable one, and will command the
support of every true member of the Demo
cratic organization. It re-affirms the doctrine
of the Cincinnati platform, and declares the
Lecompton controversy at an end, refusing
io recognize it as a test to be prescribed by
either side of those who differed in opinion
upon it. The bold and manly and true Dem
. •
ocratic ground is taken that all are good
enough Democrats who uphold the cardinal
principles of the party, and sustain its or
ganizatien by voting the Democratic ticket.—
This Is true Democratic liberality, and will be
endorsed by every national Democrat in the
country. In the establishinent of their plat
form? the Democracy of Ohio have placed
themselves upon the highest stand point to
which they could possibly have arrived.—
Let nose of other States follow their patri
otic example. We reproduce the resolutions
adopted by the Convention.
Ist. Resolved, That we re-affirm and endorse
the principles set forth in the platform of the
Democratic National Convention which assem
bled at Cincinnati in 1856.
2nd. Resolved, That we accept the adjustment

at the recent session. of Congress, of the .‘ Con
ference Bill," . for tha cmditional admission of
Kansas into the Union, recognizing the right of
the people of that Territory alone to deoidadnal

And for themselves, without intervention from
any quarter, the question of admission under any

3rd. Resolved, That we regard the Lecompton
controversy, so called, as at an end, and as be
ing a settled issue; therefore, we refuse to rec
ognize it us a Ica, to be prescribed by either side
of those who differed in opinion upon it. believ
ing that all who uphold the cardinal principles
of the party, and sustain its organization by vo
ting,the Democratic ticket, as good enough Dem
ocrats for all purposes.
. 4th. Resolved, That in the future we are op
posed.to the admission of a new State into the
Union, until population thereof shall equal the
ratio for arepresentative in Congress, and until,
as in the case of Minnesota, im proposed eon
stitutien shall have been submitted to and ap
proved-by a vote of the people.

purity of charactorof James Buchanan, the pres

inehis wisdom an 4 experience, to administer our
National affairs.

KNIGIITROOD TO PIRATES AND AS•
Much of the vast amount of solemn mum
mery and nonsense which hedges in kings
and queens in the old country, in the distri
bution of honors, has of late years become
so puerile and ridiculous, that even immemo
rial usage cannot save it from the sneers of
the dear people whom it is intended to im•
press.
This royal authority and prerogative plays
such fantastic tricks before high-heaven, as
would make e'en angels weep—if they could
only keep from laughing.
To a real, genuine John Bull, who has al
ways been a very great lover of these baubles
of king craft, this must be a terrible desecra
tion. Why just think of it !
Victoria, with tho almost antedeluvian blood
of the noble Guelph in her veins, deigning to
tie the most noble Order of the Garter on
the parvenu imperial calf of a once refugee,
bum•constable and beggar—(a Frenchman
besides,) in her own capital ! thus recog
nizing the knavely suggestion, that success is
the evidence of true merit! This was the
la t hair on the tip of the tail of Mr. Bull's
patience, and although he whet his horn on
every sapling in Hyde Park, and pawed the
dirt, and moaned—and moaned, as any pious
quadruped should, by and by, he was silent,
and he got for answer, that state purposes de
mended it.
But this was not more ridulous than that
upon the occasion of the knighthood to the
hero of Oude, the brave Havelock, at the same
time and date, identical honors were bestowed
on Col. Henry Phipps, holding the office of
head ostler to Prince Albert, a regular cock
ney and popinjay of the court, who has nev
er been out of London perhaps, a mere hang
er-on at court festivals.
The United States received an apology from
,the British Government for Mr. Crampton's
gross violation of international law, in re
cruiting on this soil, 8 , idlers for the Crimea.
He was dismissed from Washington, but rose
up immediately (a la eorney Delaney) Sir J.
•
Craiupton I
Not many years ago, a militia Colonel in
Canada, M'Nab, by a cowardly midnight ex_
cnrsion across the Niagara, burned the Caro
line on the American side, and sent her over
the Falls. Apology for the grossness of this
act was freely given, but he turns up Sir
Allan M'Nab, Knt.,—is sent to Parliament
ever since—is charged within a year or so of
having been trundled into his place in the
Hall at Toronto, with his gouty legs, to vote
th rough a bill, by which he received a bribe
of fifty thousand pounds sterling! Higher
honors await him. By the last news from
England, he will be the first Governor of New
Caledonia.
But the foreign papers contain of late still
more humiliating news for poor Bull and his
ancient honors ; for lo ! the order of " Knight
of the Grand Cross of the Most Noble Order
of the Bath" has been bestowed on a buck
Hindoo, who rejoiceth in the crusher of a
name of " Maharajah Jung . Bahador Ranjee."
And who is this individual thus honored
by this sanctified and supremely rare distinc
tion ? He happens to be one of the few in
power in India, who could serve the Compa
ny against his countrymen, and we condense
from Easterm papers a syllabus of the life of
the bloody and cowardly savage.
He was sent by the Court of Nepaul to fo
ment conspiracy among the princes, which he
accomplished, and besides beat all India in
cheating at cards and dice, lying and forgery.
Being banished thence, he returned home in
time to join a conspiracy against his uncle,
the prime minister of Nepaul, and by the
instigation of the queen took a sly occasion
in a secret place to shoot " flunky" through
the head. After much diversion and sport of
this'xind, he concluded for a time, by assas
sinating a dozen or two of his pagan asso
ciates who stood in his way to promotion.--
But what is all this to the honorable fact, that
he, just in the nick of time, turned over his
troops to fight the Sepoys Then this wolf,
with the woolly side turned in, appears at
Windsor Castle, covered with diamonds, and
receives honors which poor Bull, a few years
ago, thought only fit for his Marlboroughs
and Wellingtons, and fur which great men
in Church and State have sighed, and died
for in vain. By the same scale of honors,
the officers of the Styx and Buzzard in the
Gulf may be next gazetted.
" Knighthood and honors, bore as they bear theirs,
Aro titles but of Forza. If that thy gantry, Britain!
Go behind three lonta—'tie then the kkidg,
Ye scarce are men, while they are Gods"
This "Queen of the Antilles" attracts much
attention just now, across the water. The
British Government, in no very guarded terms
accuses the Spanish Governmentiwith a total
disregard:of faith, in allowing-the Slave trade
in Cuba. This rouses the " Don," who blus
ters up, and declares he shall organize his ar
my after the French fashion, and dares'John
Bull to speak that way again. " John Bull"
cooly says, "my brother Jonathan" ;may
have Cuba, and welcome if be wants it, and
now the " Don" stands staring speechlessly at
"John Bull," while "Jonathan" stands with
his hands on his knees, laughing so he can
scarcely see.

MOE
RESIGNATION OF GEN. GEORGE W
We publish this morning the letter of Mr.
Cass, addressed to the stockholders of the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Rail.
road, resigning his position as President. For
two years Mr. Cass has administered the
affairs of this company as their chief execu
tive officer. There are but few men in the
country who possess the capacity to adminis
ter the affairs of a great line of unfinished
railroad with the signal ability which Mr.
Cass has displayed. The burthen which he
assumed at the period of consolidation was an
immense one, and such as but few men in his
position would have been willing to take upon
themselves. Ile saw at the start that the
very existence of the road depended upon its
early completion to Chicago, and ho has
worked for this end with almost superhuman
energy, until it may now be said- to be suc
cessfully accomplished. In all his official acts
he has been solely governed by a desire for
the permane9t success of the work, and the
general good'of the parties who had invested
their money in it. He has devoted him
self untiringly to the interests of the stock
holders, disregarding all personal ends.—
Ile has not been a railroad President for his
own interest or to gratify his own ambition ;
he has been in all positions and under all
difficulties the faithful and effective agent of
those who owned the road. We do not won
der that the parties interested regret to lose
his services, but having accomplished so
nearly what he undertook at the time of the
consolidation, that it but remains fur others
to perfect what he has so successfully planned,
he leaves his position with honor to himself
and with the proud satisfaction of knowing
that the owners of the property of which he
has had charge, appreciate the value of his
services. He retires from office with the best
wishes of the thousands whom he has bene
fitted and with the high esteem of the busi-
ness public.
His letter, in which he gives Lis reasms
for desiring to retire from public duties is as
To the Stockholders of the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne
and Chicago Rail Road Co —To-day completes
the second year of consolidation, and a like pe
riod of service for me in the office which I now
hold in the new corperation. With the close of
this day, I give back to the Board of Direct ;re,
the office of Prcai dent ; but, before doing so,
have a very few a ords to tey to you.
Very soon after I came into the office of
President of the Ohio add Pennsylvania hail
Road Company, 1 became convinced that the
ultimate security or value of the property of
that Company, depended en the completion of
the then unfinished portion of road from Colum
bia City to Chicago, (127 miles,) so as to make
a continuous railway from Pittsburgh to Chica
go. Since that date, each day's experience
has but strengthened the opinion then formed,
and confirmed me in the behalf that the consoli
dation, which was the only plan by which the
property of all the parties in interest could be
preserved.
The difficulties in the way of the completion
of the road to Chicago, by the close of the
term for which the first Board of Directors was
elected, as was confidently expected, were fully
set forth in the first Annual Report, and were of
a character to satiety you that the Board had not
been remiss in its duty. 'cu were also notified in
the Annual Report, on the 17th of March last
that "arrangements were being made with par
ties to furnish cash capital, and complete the
road into Chicago, in September next, which, if
they received your sanction on the 30th inst.
would at once be perfected." At your meeting
on the 30th of March, you gave your assent to
the Board of Directors making the contract for
the completion of the road to Chicago. In pur
suance of this action, I executed on the 28th of
April, with the Pennsylvania Rail Road Compa
ny, a contract, by which the Company is to fur
nish all the " rails, chairs, spikes, frogs and
swishes," necessary to complete the road. This
contract is liberal in its provisions,, on. the part
of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, and
such as this Company could consistently agree
to. Under the contract, two thouvand tons of
rails have already been furnished, and the daily
delivery is now about one hundred tons per day,
so that, without doubt, the contract will be ful
ly complied with, within the time stipulated.—
The rails are being laid down as they roach
the track layers, and at this date some iifteeu
miles of new track have boon laid west of Ply
mouth. The ballasting of the new track has
been commenced, and will be proceeded with as
the trackelaying progresses, ao as to furnish a
good road for business, so soon as the track is
laid into Chicago., With the assets placed in
the hands of the Chief Engineer, as stated on
page GI of Annual Report, he Ilea arranged for
the cash means necessary to ecoomplish the
balance of the work, not otherwise provided for,
and in doing this, he has performed a service
you can scarcely appremate, and cannot well
remunerate. The grading is 60 far advanced
towards completion, that it may be regarded as
out of the way.
With the faots as above recited, 1 feel safe in
assuring you that the road will be completed, as
contemplated by the articles of consolidation, in
the month of October next . and that, practi
cally, the work is now done, so far as the Board
of Directors or the President have any further
agency in the matter. The Chief Engineer, hie
Assistant, and contractors, will soon do the re
maining work, all of which is strictly within
the sphere of their duties.
To see the great aim of the consolidation ac
complished (completion of road to Chicago,) dur
ing my incumbency of the office of President, I
yielded to a reelection, in March last, and the
work now practically done, I have felt at liber
ty to resign, as was my purpose nine months
h ago, so soon as I thought I could do so, without
I appearing to leave a duty undischarged.
. .
In the Annual Report, I expressed the opinion
that two things wouid have to be accomplished
before your property oould be plaoed on a se
cure foundation, to wit : the completion of the
road to Chicago, and the funding of the floating
debt. As I have just stated, the first of these
is, in effect, accomplished, and I am gratified in
being able to state that much progress has been
made in liquidating the floating debt. The
Auditor reports to me a reduction, as shown by
the books in his Department, of $394,860 53,
since the date to which the last report is made
up ; and the reduction arranged for, and not
yet entered in hie books, makes a decrease of
the floating debt, since January last, of about
$460,000 ; or reduces the floating debt, at the
present moment, to the amount existing at (i.e
date of consolidation. Until this floating debt is
discharged, the management of the road will he
perplexed, and harrassod to a degree, but few of
you can have any just conception of ; and the
entire removal of this incubus is going to be a
work of muoh labor and anxiety.
In the twenty-six years of active busiuess life,
through which I have passed, for the first time has
it been my misfortune, whether managing my pri
vate business, or in a public station, to bo sur
rounded by over-duo obligations, and financial
embarrasments ; and my special motive for re
signing, is to escape this part of a duty which is
co distasteful to me, and so little in harmony
with my previous life. 1 am thus explicit, to
prevent uneasiness on the part of a single share•
holder, who may conceive that no one would
leave a position (that some consider) of honor,
and $4,000 a year salary, unless danger was ap•
prehended.
My opinion of the ultimate value of your pro
perty, is truly given on page lb Of the Annual
Report, where it is stated, that on the final com
pletion of the road "it will be in a position to
command business, defy competition, and remune
rate all the capital invested." Of course the
property will still be subject to vicissitudes, as
are all our plans in every department of the
great business of life ; bat with the road finish
ed, unembarrassed, and prudently managed, not
more so, than a majority of the public and pri
vate enterprises in which large capital is every
year invested.
In the general management of railways, as
competing institutions for the business of the
country, I differ most widely from the policy
now in vogue, and do notAelleve the value of
railway property generally, will have a perma
nence until this policy is changed. Whether the
change will come through the motion of the
managers, or through legislative intervention,
time alone can determine. Ae oppressive as
legislatures are alleged to be on corporations, I
am not sure but their intervention ought to bo
invoked, as they might greatly mitigate much of
the present insane policy, by means of specific
enactments; or though Commissioners, in a
short time bring order out of chaos, by estab
lishing such rules for management, such combi
pains for business, snob penalties for wanton

thing of the harmony found in tho orEktio.ns of
a perfect machine, might bu looped for. At
present, every road, or line of road, is an Ilh
maelite.
Of my successor, I have nothing to say to you,
for the reason that his name is too well identifi
ed with every thing pertaining to successful rail
way management, to require any thing to be
said. I can, however, say that he hoe no easy
or pleasant task before hill), nor cue that h••

it doubtless will be, he can truly claim that he

A CARD PROM Dit. JAMES M. JAR
RETT, OF TIIE NEW YORE LUNG INFLIthi
ARY./—llly connection for the past eight years with the
above Institution. as Chief physician, and a twelve years'
counts of steady devotion to the Cure of Pulmonary COD-
Btimption and its kindred disease...a, together with my 1111-
rivalledopportunitiesand advantage of pathological research
—aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical .Inhalc
tion—has enabled me to waive at a decisive, direct and sne- -
ovasfolconrso of treatment for the positive and radical cure
of all di.easea of the Throat, Lungs, and Ain.Passages. By
Inhalation, the vapor and curative properties of medicines
are directly schemed to the diseased Organs and the integu
ment. Ido not advise the use of Medical Inhalation of any
kind, to the exclusion of general treatment; and although I
consider it a useful adjuvant in the proper management of
those fearful and often fatal diseases, yet I deem it very ne
cessary that each patient should have the benefit of both
general and local treatment. The euccese of my treatment
in the above diseases, and the high character of the Instals•
tion over whi , da I have so long had the honor to preside,aro
too well known to need any eulogy or comment from me.
At the solicitation of many private and professional friends,
through whose philanthropic aid the above charity has been
long and liberally supported, and after due consideration, I
have couch:tied to make such arrangements as will bring ,
the b, nefita of my experiments and treatment within the ;
and Dot confine myself, as heretofore, to thm, •

will give entire satisfaction, bath to my professicual breth
ren and the public, I would respectfully announce in con
clusion, that /can now be omrulteclpertcmaliy or by letter,on
all dioceses as above, and that the medicines, the same t.
used in the Institution, prepared to suit each individual
case. Inhaling Vapors, Medical Inhalers, de., A., mill be
forwarded by express to any part of the Dotted States er
the Canadas. TERMS-111y terms of treatment by letter are
as follows, viz: $l2 per month for each patient which will
include medicine sufficient for one month's use; also, In.
holing Vapor, and au / nhaling Apparatus. Payment all i.)l
lows : $d to be pald to Express Agent on receipt of the box
of Medicine. and the balance $6 at the expirat!on of the
month, if the pall nt be cured or is entirely satisfied with
the treatment. Patients, by giving a lull history of their
case, and their symptoms in full, mu be treated as well by
letter as by p.tuanal examination. Patients availing them
selves of Dr. Jarrett's treatment may rely upon immedicte
an I permanent velref, as he seldom has to West a case over
thirty days. Lettere' for advice promptly answered. For
