OUR WEEKLY The Weekly Post, published to-day, con tains the proceedings of theCTavarltibre and a great variety of editorial, local, and 'gene ral news. The mammoth Weekly costs but 1 per year in clubs of five. Now is the time to subscribe as the fall campaign is at viand. _ pv . „ THE Patriot and Union and the Keystone have united. If two good papers joined can make one better one, and this we think is the fact, we shall now have a capital paper from the capital city of the State. TRH. DIFFERENCE We have recently been cognizant of an ex change of property between e gentleman of the city, and one of the country, a few miles from the city. The exchange was . made between the parties evenly, ueither paying the other a difference. During the transaction it transpired that on these pieces oflirbperty, both of equal value, the taxes hard byby the country gentleman were $9 per year, while he of the city paid $45. This is equalized taxation with a vengeance. The city people will soon begin to turn their attention to the manifest inequality that exists in the assess ment in city and country, and to provide p remedy' if possible. The cities have long enough paid the lion's share of the expenses of the county government, while the country people have been reaping the greater part of the benefits. THE Greensburg, Blairsville, and other papers of the District, speak in the most en couraging Perms of the certainty of the elec tion of Hon. H. D.F Oster, to Congress in the Westmoreland Dititrict. It can be done with a little effort, and we have not a doubt_it will be done. Wows from London Yesterday at noon we received telegraphic dispatches from London, relative to the cessa tion of the Chinese War, dated on the provious evening. This is wonderful—scarcely con ceivable. Only one day from London world seem like annihilating time and 'space, yet we observe that the fast people of New York are begining to grumble at the length of time required to send messages across the water. Wait till the Hughes Instruments are put operation and we shall have daily news from London. A Telegraph to India. A London letter says thst this construction of a line of telegraph to India, by the Red Sea route, has been at length ageed upon.— The government are to guarantee four and a half per cent. on.the requisite capital, for fifty years, and the shares of the Company by whom the work is to be carried out have, ac cordingly, already been dealt out at a premi um equal to about five per cent. The cable from Suez to Aden is first to be laid. This is about half the entire distance and the cost is estimated at about £500,000. Messrs. Newall, the manufacturers of the Atlantic cable, have offered to construct it L and lay it down at their own risk for that amount What Our Neighbors Think of Lis. The Greensburg Argus copies our article upon the subject of repudiation, tvith the fel , - lowing remarks : On the 18th inst., a Convention of Delegates from the different townships and boroughs in Al legheny county, calling themselves a Democratic Convention, met and nominated a Repudiation ticket, as they are pleased to call it. That is, a ticket pledged to repudiate or refuse to pay __the city and county subscription to railroads.— The Convention was uproarious, and refused to permit Judge Wilkins to read a resolution, faint ly endoriing the State and National adminise tration. Now, we look upon repudiation in in dividuals, brokers, banks, or other corporate bodies, as rank dishonesty; and it eertainly re quires a great deal - of assurance far a body of men to call themselves Democrats, and stand on such a disreputaole platform. They aro neither at heart or practice Democrats : and we most sincerely hope the. whole ticket will be defeated. We are glad to perceive, from the following arti cle,which we copy from the Daily Poet, the only democratic paper in Allegheay county, that our friend Barr, the sole editor, repudiates the plat form. We commend it to the careful attention of all who sympathise with tnis nail party. We disagree with oar-friend of the Argus. in his desire fur the non-success of the Dem,• ocratic ticket. It is the regularly nominated • ticket of our party—it is a good ticket—it is the beet ticket before the people—and as such we shall do all in our power for its success. The platform is another thing. No Convert" tion can bind us to a platform which is is not a Democratic one. The State Bank of Indiana. The following dividend hae be_en declared The branches at Fort Wayne, Terra Haute, Vincennes, Indianapolis and Evansville ten per cent.: Lawrenceburg and South Bend twen ty per cent.; Madison five per cent. It is now demonstrated that the State of Indiana will realize about $2,000,000 clear profit through ite.connection with the bank and the sinking fund. —A man -named Neyhassayl, a native of Bo hemia, murdered his little boy on Saturday last near Chicago by splitting his head open with an ax. The boy was about live years old. No nun' is assigned for the unnatural deed. The Hon. William A. Porter passed through our city on Thursday, on his...way to one of the northern counties, remaining for a short time at the St. Charles 'Hotel, where he was called upon by a number of his per- sonal and political friends. We have hereto fore spoken of Judge Porter as filling the high position which he occupies with the most distinguished ability. Wo have not the slightest doubt that the suffrages of the peo ple, next October, will, by a large majority, retain upon the Supreme Bench this distin. guished gentleman and most excellent Judge. Indeed, the only objection which, as yet, the opposition has urged against him has been on account of his age. Upon this subject the York Gazette recently published an able and excellent article. That paper says that, un- AUGUST 27, 1858 able, as yet, to point out a single objection to him as regard his legal nbiliiy, u- his private character, the opposition journals have been forced to take the absurd and ridiculous posi tion that he is too young to entrust with the important duties of the judiciary. The old fogyism of such an attack upon our nominee, insulting to the young and active intellects of this great commonwealth, has been properly disposed of by the article we have alluded to, and we feel confident that it will meet with a more stern and decided rebuke from the peo ple at the polls. Since the nomination of Judge Porter by the Democratic State Con , vention, we have carefully looked over the grounds, and every day we see the strongest evidences of the wisdom of that body in placing him on the Democratic ticket. There is no doubt in our mind of his being able to poll as many Democratic votes, as any candi date that could have been selected. his su- JUDGE, PORTER. perior attainments, his unbending integrity, and his amiable and agreeable deportment, have secured to him hosts of friends through• out the State, who will bravely struggle for his success. The calm and dignified manner in which he refused, after his appointment by Gov. Packer, to drag the judicial ermine into the arena of politics„has won the respect and confidence of all parties, and gives the posi tive assurance that, in no event, will he per mit the purity of the Bench, so far as he can prevent it, to be soiled by the thick dust rais ed by scuffling partisans. In fact, he has al ready gained the appellation of the " model Judge," and the peuple of Pennsylvania will attest their high 4pprecilttibu_uf his worth as a.rnan, - and his character as a lawyer, by keep ing him in the position he so signally adorns. His opponent, John M. Read, of Philadel phia, is a gentleman of considerable ability. Until a few years past he was an active and bitter Democrat. lu consequence of his abo lition tendencies, he abandoned our national party when Black Republicanism sprung into existence, and he has been rewarded for his treason by being made the leader of the very men to whom he was personally antagonistic duringds long and earnest political life. He was unable to secure the delegates from his own city, who were instructed fur Judge Thompson : but being the favorite candidate of Thaddeus Stevens, this adroit Rnd cun• ning politician managed to pull the wires in such a way as to secure the selection of his friend and ally. The people will never en dorse a nomination made by such a man, and in such a manner. They see in William‘A, Porter a hapu combination of the upright lawyer, the able judge, the honest man, and the christian gentleman, and they will not trust their hopes and interests to " a Read shaken by the wind," and blown about by the fickle winds of Black Republicanism !

Askioq The Marriage of Mr. Care's Daughter STONINUTON, August 24, 1bi7.8- Our little village has been thrown into a high state of excitement by the arrival of General Cass, the Secretary of State, and the marriage of his daughter, Miss Isabella Case, to the Min ister from the King of the Netherlands, M. Van Limburg, yesterday. The ceremony took place in Calvary ohuroh,a very neat Episcopal churoh, the rector, Rev. Daniel C. Merton, officiating. Though occur ring in the church edifice, it was strictly private. About two o'clock in the afternoon the bride en tered, escorted by her father and followed by M. Van Limburg and two of General Cass's married daughters—Mrs. Canfield and Mrs. Ledyard— together with Mr. Ledyard and his family, and Mr. Zimmerman, the New York Consul for the Netherlands. The bridewas dressed in a neat silk traveling suit, of the color of ashes of rose, and light French hat of mazarine blue. From her appear ance I should, judge the blooming bride to be about forty years of age. M. Van Limburg ap peared to much advantage. Evelything was conducted in the most simple and unostentatious manner. After the marriage service, the party proceed ed to the vestry, and then to the Wandawanuk 1101160. The happy pair proceeded to Newpoat in the three o'clock train, where they will occu py the private cottage of M. Van Limburg. A salute of fifty gluts were fired by com mander It. T. Loper, from the faet Yacht Mad gio, which was oovered with flags and streamers The Crops In Tatar a. W. Kendall writes to the Now Orleans Picayuue the folllowing statement regarding the corn and Chinese sugar cane crops in Texas : There is to be no want of corn in western Texas, for every field width escaped the ray egss of the grasshoppers. is yielding abundant ly, and many localities escaped these pests en tirely. The crop of Chinese sngar-oane, which laughs at grasshoppers and draughts, is at the same time immense, and the first heads of ripe seeds are already gathered. Some of my neigh bors are having it ground, and are making bread of it, epeaking_ of it in commendable terms, while everywhere they are preparing to grind the stalks and convert the juice into syrup or molasses. That this is to be a valuable addi tion to oar crops in this seolionothere can be no doubt; it stands a drough better than any other plant—is no more affected by dry weather than a good article of bread—so many say ; the leaves make an excellent fodder; while the stalks can be converted into molasses and perhaps sugar— nothing is lost. I have often heard it stated that the grain is hurtful, to horses, and this may be so; yet if any one has ans of it to spare, I am willing to feed it out to my work animals as an experiment, and will run all risks of its injuring them. In fact, I fed out no inconsiderable quan tity of it last year, and would have used it more freely, had I had it to spare. A bushel of it weighs some forty-eight pounds, or eight pounds less than a bushel of corn. We have not yet learned all its uses. —Two vessels arrived at Philadelphia on Toesday, one from Rio, and one from Port an Prince, bringing 4079 bags of coffee. Fetter from Hon. ReverdyJohnson...Tne Warfare on Douglas. LYNDHURST, NEAR BALTIMORE, July 29, 1858. Afy d ear . Judge:—No one of your friends has witnessed with more pleasure than I have the general approbation you seem to be receivingat hands of the Democracy of Illinois. The impulse, to say this to you, is, under the circumstances, so strong that I hope to be ex on for yielding to it. That there should oc casionally be differences of opinion amongst men of generally concurring sentiments is not at all to wondered at. The only wonder there should be is, that these differences are of more frequent occurrence. To exact universal accordance in all measures of political policy, however contra ry they may be to to past, opinions, sanctioned at the time by general approval, and to ostracise those who differ, and especially on a measure from its very nature of temporary duration and influence, is not only unmixed party tyranny, but the very essence of folly. And yet, this ie the character of the hostility which some of the Democratic presses are now co ruthlessly waging against you. Professing to be, to the very heart's core, opposed to Republicanism as understood in these times, and to all its adherents, they me certainly doing, whether knowingly ur a r, all Ithat they can to elect to the Senate el'. the United States, from your State, a leader of that party, who, judging from his reported ep.eolaeri, is deep • ly and incurably dyed in every one of its politi cal and fatal heresies A leader, whose success on your defeat will be hailed everywhere by hie followers as the death knell of the Democratic party, and carry well caused alarm to those who look to the preservation of the peace, true inter ests and duty of every Silt' of the Union, and be considered the triumph of a deep seated, hit ter malignity, or blind unreasoning prejudice to the Southern States. The madness of such course naturally excites special wonder amongst all the friends of the present admiuistratiou, who iook only to its true honor and success, un influenced by petty motives of personal spite to one who, like yourself, has for so many years with signal ability and unquestioned good faith, contributed so much to further the general meas ures of policy which hive of late years eetab fished, and with truth to the party, the title of National. The excuse, such as it is, (it is the only one,) that you did not agree with the President's Ott mate policy is the liausas matter, is too flimsy to deceive an honest observer. That policy, It is to be remembered, was net the one which the President adopted in the beginning. He assum ed his published instructions to Governor Walker, as a fact not doubted by him, that the Constitu tion which the territorial oouveutien would form would be in good faith and in its entirety to be sub mitted to the people. He evidently did nut thiuk it possible, (and who did, who was net In the secret?) that such submission would be in a form that would give the people no opportunity to pass judgment upon the minetitutiou at all, that solely on a collateral matter, having uoth, ing to do with a single clause in the instrument. As a matter of policy, as Pelt au of justice, that this was a grave crier, no ,Ine, uabittecd mind can 1 think, ba t. unit to question But this being Lt.mi I tee Pre , ideut es evict ed it bent to euLli.tt. ~pprJviug;), L, t' But iu so ding had bt the :,..netion ' , t it I.i heel friends, or of the hest and oldest fr ieo.k , t the party No ii.astaur alli.i,.ativeiy who wasL,in Washington at 11.0 time, aU..I observer of all that was then dune and said, That the President iiatcd conscientiously, and as he believed fur the best, I have no doubt , but very many of his truest and feeetest Irten,Li o n tertained a different eptuion. These thought that the proper course was to submit the matter to Congress, udthout executive endorsement or disapprobation, to be disposed of an that body might deew the hest. I eeutees that this was my own opinion. But when he had decided otherwise, final and pretty general aoquiesence in the measure was given from a desire to have a mailer so fruitful of mischievous uneasiness in the country settled, and from a conviction that in the way proposed it could be settled.— And 1 see no present reason for doubting the accuracy of this belief. But are those who con tinue to think otherwise to be on that account vilified and denied communication with the par ty ? Is that to be the result of an honest per severance in an original opinion, concurred in, perhaps, at the time, by a majority of the par ty ? Are its deadliest foes—foes to nearly all of its past and probable future policy to be brought into power through the instrumentality of a war fare carried ou from the mere indulgence of the and personal hatred which the pursuit of honest convictions may have engendered ? Udder such suicidal blindness what party can long survive I Is inability to agree in every measure proposed, which ultimately receives the approval of a majority, conclusive evidence of want of proper party fealty 1 If so, how can tio many now be favored teen:there of the Demo.. oratio party, who at the first did not eandtion the policy of repealing tho Missouri slavery restric tion ? These are, I know, to be found South as well as North, and amongst these doubtless can be ranged ;h.. President himself. Who believes, had he at that period been in the legislative councils of the nation, that he would have given that measure his support 1 I certainly no more believe it than that had I been there, Southern man as I atri,not blindly i hope, bat strongly and affectionately, with equal attachment to the other States, it would have received my support. But yet, is the President, because of such dif femme with his party, less to be esteemed an honest and faithful trod honored member of it I cannot, therefore, but marvel at, as touch as I lament, the bitterness and madness of the op position to you of former political assuciates.— I trust however, sincerely trust, that their un reasonable oumity will be of no avail, and a tri umph will follow your prudent, bold, manly and patriotic canvass—a triumph so vital to the con tinuieg success of the party, and ae involved in it the continuing peace and prosperity of the oonntry. With great regard, your friend and ob't serv't, Revenue JoHNsoN. HON. STEPHEN A. Doeuhes, Chicago. [From the Chicago liatetto and E.egistrt.i The Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago 'Now, by L , alut. Paul, and the wvrh gL , va bravely on The above quotation is very appropos of the condition of things along the line of this road between Plymouth and Chicago (the unfinished portion" and judging from the determination and energy which is now being evinced by the Com pany, and all the parties engaged in this great enterprise, we can see no reason to doubt the successful termination of their tabors by the first of November next. The bridging is also in a state of forwardness. The long pile bridge over the Little Calumet river and marsh, in Lake Co.. Ind , which when completed will be 4,600 feet in length, is now within 800 feet of comple tion ; a steam pile driver is at work on it capable of driving fifty feet per day ; a strung force of carpenters are also at work framing the caps and stringers, and at such a rate they will tier taiuly be out of the way before tke track lay ers approach them. The next and unfinished ed bridges of any magnitude, are those over the outlet of Wolf Lake, just below the State line, and over the Calumet river near Ainsworth, lil a on both of which steam pile drivers are at work ; the piles for the latter being nearly all in, a few days will finish it. The whole of the pile driving and bridging at the western end of the road is now being June by Messrs. Fisk & Axtell of Chicago. The reputation which these gentlemen have carried for themselves by the amount of work they have exnouted for the Illinois Central Railroad Ce., is sufficient guar autee that the. ability and energy to complete their work within the given time will nut be found wantlngin them. The track laying is now proceeding very saris , faatorily, arrangements having been lately made to rush it forward with increased rapidity.- 1 There arc now about twenty miles laid west of 1 Plymouth, leaving sixty-three miles to be laid, and two additional parties aro now engaged lay• ing east and west from the crossing of the New Albany and Salem Railroad The three parties will now lay from 1. to 2 miles per day, and as soon a 9 the grading of the sections lying be tween the Rock Island Railroad Junction and the Calumet River shall have been completed, (which will be iu about thirty days,) another track party will commence laying eastward from this end of the line. A ballasting party fol lows each of the track laying parties, so by the time the track is ready for use it will be in as good and safe a condition as that of any other portion of the road. The danger of accident incidental to all "new track," will by this pre caution be entirely removed. And from the thorough and excellent manner in which :this track is being laid, it will from the first be safer to travel over than many other tracks that have been laid for years. The iron is all provided for. The Company has about 1500 tons lying at Plymouth, and about 2000 tons at the end of the roan, and iron is being delivered at Plymouth from the rolling mills of Messrs. Wood, Morell & Co., of Johns town, Penn. at the rate of from 150 to 200 tone per day. The spikes and chairs are all either on hands or contracted for. Tbo latter are a very superior article of "rolled chairs," from the "Phenix iron works" of Pa. The cross ties are nearly all delivered along the line of the road; about 9000 being on hand in Chicago' ll.R.llrond and 2000 per week are being received from Michigan. The large amount of money (amounting to over $15,000) necessary' to defray the expense of this work is promply famished, regularly once a month, by J. Edgar Thomson, Esq , President of this Railroad, who ?.upon his own individual responsibility has ettocessfelly undertaken the Herculean labor of providing the funds ne, cessary to finish this road : a task which, we venture to aosert, undertaken as it was in the vary face of the revulsion which the busines.l of the world was then reeling under, could have been a:c implished by no other man in this coun t try or Earope. ' We consider it a subject of the heartiest con• gratulation to all interested, that the control of this principal eastern route is now invested in that talented gentleman, who is now at the head of probably the longest clutinuous line of rail way in the United States; Chicago to Philadel phia, 818 miles, exclusive , of Pennsylvania, Ca nal, Pittsburgh to Columbia, 283 miles, together with the Portage and Columbia Railroads, lately purchased of the State of Pennsylvania by the Pennsylvania Central Railroad Company. The gentleman whom Mr. Thomson has late ly placed in charge of the affair: cf ti e Pitts burgh, Fort Wayne, and Chicago Railroad Gem parry, as its acting President, is T. Haskins Dn- Puy, Esq., who has largo experience both as an engineer and a railroad manager, having been for many years associated with Mr. Thomson upon the Pennsylvania Railroad and other enter prises, and at the present time. also Slis with marked ability the position of Chief Engineer of the Canal Department" cf the P•ritisylvattia.

With such men as these directirg is affairs, the future of the Pittsburgh, Fart Wayne, and Chicago Railroad, when it it compitted to Chi cago, muet certainly be more than hoped for. —Dan Rice's show will per form in Cincinnati 012 Monday next —Campbell's Min3irelB will perfoi Ea in Chaoin La i next week —The uoFt of repairing the ,1:!/1 , f;t45 to the City Hall of Nt.i9 York by Eire is es'imiated at fifty tLou.au•.l duli.ro.

Invention of the !Microscope It was in 1604, when John Milton's "chief of men," who had wielded tlpower of England with a firm eV vlgorons baud, etrangaly con trasted with the royal but feeble fingers which previously and subsequently endeavored to direct it, bad gone to his account, and just after the rupture of the close union which bad endured almost without interruption for nearly seventy years between England and Holland, that a Dutch youth of eighteen, holding a glass thread in the flame of a candle, perceived that the melt ed extremity assumed a spherical form. The intelligent lad instantly seized on the happy in cident. He had seen Lea wenbcook manufacture lenees, such as they were, and went on burning his glass threads, and attempted to plaeo his lit tle spheres between two pieces of lead, through which he made an aperture with a pin's point. Placing a hair before this simply constructed in strument, he found, to his great joy, that he was the maker and possessor of a capital microscope for those times, and he thus secured to the mi crographere of the day what they had so long sought.
