Hit the Nall
The Democracy of Massachusetts hit the
nail on the head in one of the resolutions of
their State convention. They resolved that
" the opponents of the Democracy have not
only lost their chief element of sectional strife
—the Kansas agitation—by its exclusion from
Congress, but they have in a most rernarka.
ble manner stultified themselves, and reversed
their most clamorous professions of " free
dom," by voting against the admission of
Minnesota and Oregon as free States, and
at the same time voting that Kansas might
come in as a slave State if the majority of
the people should so elect! An inconsisten
cy still more suggestive of political hypocri
sy when we find it followed up by these ex
clusive Pharisees of "freedom," proclaiming
in some quarters their abhorrence of negro
equality, and their determination, if they get
the power, to banish all free and slave blacks
out of the States." In Missouri, especially
they have proclaimed their abhorrence of
negro equality, wherc.Mr. Frank P. Blair ad
vocated on the stump, the plan of abolishing
slavery and then excluding all the negroes
from the State ! Their Topeka constitution
excluded free negroes from Kansas.
HoN. DAVID TOD has Leen nominated for
Congress by the Democrats of Ashtabula
District, as the successor of Joshua R. (lid
dings. This is a strong nomination. Mr.
Todd is one of the must prominent and able
men in the State, and has a national reputa
tion. If the district was not so atrociously
lack in its politics, it would elect Mr. Tod.
Which Is she Party of Freedom 1
A Democratic Congress has admiited every
now State into the Union. The Democracy
voted to admit,and did admit, a free State last
winter. The Opposition never admitted a
free State, and next winter voted against ad ,
miffing one. When the Opposition charges
the Democracy pro-slaveryism, let them re
member these facts.

...fixed, no other question need be asked, but
the price thus charged can be recovered."

A SINGLE ISSUE.
Those wise individuals, who, a few weeks
ago, were so intensely desirous ,of fighting
the approaching political campaign upon the
single and important issue of opposition to
railroad taxation to the exclusion of the more
vital and comprehensive issues of the party,
such as the foreign and domeetic'policy of the
Administration, the tariff, banks, &e., have
SEPT. 13, 185 s
got themselves into a most unhappy position.
They fell into the grievous error of supposing
that, by followingithe example of the Opposi
tion in adopting:p temporary and local issue
as the basis of the campaign, they would in ,
sure the success of the Democratic ticket.--
The disposition on the part of the people to
resist taxation for railroad purposes until the
queition had been decided by the Courts, as
to their liability in equity and law to pay the
railroad interest, was su universal. that the
managers of our Convention weic deceived
into the belief that, by ignoring the Dem)-
cratie issues of the day and refusing to say
anything about either the State or National

Administration, they could, for this" once; se-
cure enough of abolition and Know Nothing
votes to elect the ticket. The Convention
was led into the commission of precisely the
same foolish error, which has so often defeat-
ed our opponents. The Democracy has al
ways regarded the chief point of weakness in
the Opposition as lying in its sectionalism,
and the readiness with which it seized upon
and adopted temporary and local issues. Fur
doing thus, it has been compelled again and
again to re-organize its forces—to see them
again defeated for a repetition of the same
error. But not having the wisdom or the pru
dence to take warning from the disastrous re
sults to our opponents of the want of any
enlarged ideas and national principles around
which to rally their forces, the managers of
the Convention of the 18th of August, re
solved to stake the interest of the Democracy
in this county upon a single local issue.—
The warnings of old tried, honest, Democrats,
that this course could not prove otherwise
than disastrous, was scouted at by those wise
acres in the Convention, and now where do
they find themselves? Their single plank is
not strong enough to bear them up—the nom
inees upon the ticket cannot stand upon it,
and like Peter, when he attempted to walk
upon the water, they are ready to cry out
" Save us, or we perish." This adoption, as
the sole issue of the campaign, of a question
which has nothing to do with Democratic
principles or policy, but which is of the great
est importance to us as citizens, was a grave
error on the part of the Convention, but it is
not too late to provide a remedy. Already
many of the most sterling men who belong
to the Democratic organization, have declared
themselves upon the platform of National
Democracy. They challenge no man's opin
ion upon any question which does not hear
upon the vital principles of the Democracy,
and their example should be followed by every
Democrat in the county, as it will by most of
them. The Cincinnati platform is sound and
whole yet, and we can all stand upon that.—
Let the people themselves do what the lead
ers of the Convention would not do—re-enact
that platform in their public meetings and
their resolutions. The stand which the De
mocracy took last year upon the Anti• Tax
Question, and which is still maintained by all
except a few ultraists, is the stand which will
be sustained by the people. It is too late
for the Know Nothing Republican party to
succeed in stealing that thunder, although
they are attempting to do so, and like Za,-
cheus, claim to be anti-tax. The position of
oar party upon the local issue will aid us in
the election of our ticket, and the open, inde
pendent acknowl!dgment of our great princi
ples cannot but give us additional strength.
The aid •)f the True Press, and the endorse
ment by the distinctive Anti Tax Convention
of the Democratic ticket, has not as yet, done
it any serious injury. The ground which the
" man who made the Republican party,"
started out upon, in regard to the men who
ought to be elected, has melted away so-en
tirely, that he is glad to cry out " let bygones
be bygones." Ile has found out that the
ory of "hireling editors and a "hireling
press," comes with a bad grace from those
who indeed were paid for services to rail
roads and lending 66:- influence in pro.
curing subscriptions, while the poor devils of
editors were not. It is manife,t, as we ar..
gued in Saturday's Post, that it will not do
to, ostracise men for what they have hereto
fore done in behalf of railroads. If Thom
as Williams and James A. Gibson, are not
clear upon the record, how can they, as lead
ers of the Anti-,Tax party, demand that the
nominees on the Democratic ticket, shall be
more pure than they are themselves.
It seems noW, to be pretty generally ad
mitted, that the nominees upon the Demo
cratic ticket, will be permitted to go undis
turbed by the questions of the True Press
Convention, Let them now declare them
selves as Democrats and all will be well. "Let
bygones be bygones" and hereafter let us
all take, as the Convention should have done,
an honest, open, honorable Democratic stand.
Convert ion or Railroad Office rot
Yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, a Con
vention of Railroad Officers met at the Girard
House The represedratlves were—Erastus
Corning, Esq , President of the N. Y. Central ;
Moran, New York and Erie ; Brooks, Baltimore
and Ohio ; Thomson and Scott, Penn ; Bar'ow,
Obio and Mississippi ; Newton, Vibburd, Pruyn,
and Drnllard, of the New York Central ; Hous ,
ton, of the Pittsburgh, Fort W..yno and Chica
go ; and Sloan, of the Hudson River Railroad.
The Hon. Erastus Corning presided. As no re
porters were admited, wo aro unable to give an
account of the proceedings.
The Convention had not adjourned at eleven
o'clock last night. The object of the meeting
is to effect a settlement of the difficulties which
have existed for some time between these com
panies in excessive competition in trade. They
desire to adopt a uniform advance of prices, and
a more hormonions action hereafter with each
other.
A number of gentlemen, not connected with
the Convention, were also present, incidentally , ;
among them Williem 11. Clement, Esq., Vice
President and Superintendort of the Ohio and
Mississippi Railroad ; also P. W. Strader, Gene
ral Ticket Agent ; Thomas Lough, an executive
officer of the same road, en] D S. Gray, Esq.,
an officer of the Central Ohio Railroad, who are
at the Girard House.
In addition to the ahuve, the Bulletin of
Friday afternoon says :
This morning the meetlng went, article by
article, over the arrangement of last July, and
all were agreed upon, with some exceptions;
the representatives of the Now York and Erie
joining in the arrangement. The points which
could not be readily adjusted were the ruleri
which fixed the rates for all rail, and rail and
water carriage. At two o'clock, when the re
porter of the Bulletin left the hotel, these mat
ters were still under discussion, with a prospect
that they would be satisfactorily adjusted, and
that a uniform living rate would be fixed.

political matters are sadly mixed up. The anti
railroad tax sentiment is very intense among the
Democracy, and it must be confessed that it pre-
Nails to some extent among the Republicans, es
pecially in the countr) districts. In the Demo
cratic party repudiation is the sale plank of their
platform. Buchanan an Douglas, Lccompton
and anti-Lecompton, free trade and tariff, are
alike ignored. But to bring in the scattering
repudiators from tin ether parties, an anti' tax
party, headed by Thomas Williams, has been
vill , ch has adopted the ticket of the
Democracy for everything below Congress. This
movement has alarmed many old Democrats,
who are unable to sec where the party may be
drifted by this r.tr,v current, and are not quite
satisfied to find thenieelve;; v..iarching under the
lead of " Tom Williams," and lighting under the
black flag of repudiation, and nothing else.
These last propose to call another convention,
for the purpose of endorsing Buchanan, Lecomp
ton, and other pure Democratic men and things.
If they do it will only make confusion
worse confounded.
Williams is the anti-tax nominee for Congress,
but has no possible chance of au election.
Judge Wilkins, who is oppcsed to repudiation,
was openly insulted and put to silence in thti
Democratic Convention. Poor old man! Ho
reminds ono of Shakapeare's Cardinal Wolsey.
Dr. M'Clintoek,one of the beet men they ever bad,
has been thrown overboard for the same reason.
The fact this detestable principle, or rather
feeling, overrides everything else, and has spread
through that community like an epidemic, ir
ritated and urged on by the inflammatory elo
quence of Mr. Williams, who is realy an able
man, and who has the reputation of being a
sound and deeply learned lawyer. It really
seems as if he were laboring under a strong ma
nia on that particular subject. The Republicans
feel the disturbing effects of this thing very seri
riously, but I think they are still safe. They
hold on manfully to their cherished principles,
and aro much calmer than their opponents, and
carry a more upright keel amid the storm.
Livingyalrles
We had the pleasure of seeing yesterday at a
gentleman's residence in this city, two little girls
who presented in themselves a singular physio
logical study. Their ages were respectively
nine and eleven years, while they weighed but
thirteen and fifteen pounds, and their heighth
from crown to sole is but twenty-nine and thirty
one inches, respectively; yet they are in all re
spects symmetrically made, healthy and happy
children, able to talk, sing. dance and play like
other children of their age.
What is remarkable about these little fairies
moreover, is the fact that their father and mother
are mortal , of the ordinary size, and they have
n younger brother and sister, eight and eix years
old, who have attained a growth usual to their
ages. They are a much greater curiosity than
the " Aztecs," who made BO much excitement
here a i . e.*. years since, for they were idiotic,
while these litthP girls are bright and intelligent
as well as diminutive. They will not be made a
public exhibition, but will live natural lives in
privacy, with their relations, although they might
make a fortune for a showman. They are
charmingly pretty children, and contributed
greatly to the entertainment of a few friends
invited to meet them yesterday.
A Canal through th• Rocky Mountains
During the recent debate in rho British House
of Commons on the subject of the renewal of
the Hudson Bay Company's privileges,Lord Bu
ry affirmed that a communication might easily be
established between Lake Superior and the Pak
cilia Ocean, by the means of a ship canal con
necting the Saskatchewan and Columbia rivers.
Both rivers take their rise in the Rooky Moun
tains, the Columbia flowing west to the Pacific
and the Saskatchewan running east to Lake Win
nipeg, a little to the acrth west of Lake Supe
rior. With the exception of a single rapid
(which might be avoided by a canal,) his lord
ship stated that the navigation of the Saskatch•
swan offers no difficulty. With that one excep
tion, a vessel of considerable size can be taken
up to the foot of the Rocky Mountains, and at
this point there is a gap in the mountain which
interposes no great obstacle to the junction of
the Columbia and Sasiatohowan, whose sources
are but a short distance apart. Thus a direct
communication would be established with the
Pacific.
The Atlantic Cable.
TRINITY Bey, September 10.—M. De Santy,
the electrician of the Atlantic Telegraph Station
at this place, declines to make any statement
relative to the Atlantic oable for publication, be

Associated Press that there aro only temporary
difficulties of an electrical nature, and no reason
whatever for any rumor that the cable had
parted.

The Extravagance of Naa►i►on---S•ptem
I never remember to have seen greater ex
travagance or more eccentricity in toilette than
during the past few months. At the seaside,
and the various other watering places of the
continent the whole attire of the ladies is not
that of sensible women of the nineteenth centu •
ry, but gives the idea Gl* the fantastic creations
of wild girls, on a frolic. The hats are so vari
ous and so grotesque, the skirts so voluminous,
the trimmings and furbelows so profuse that the
eye is now more often offended than gratified by
the productions of European milliners an I man
tuatriaL.erl/4
For Sept - timber bonnets our milliners aro pre
paring Belgian straw, trimmed with a, bow of
the same straw, mixed with white ears and pop
pies placed at the side, and a pouceau ribbon
across the forehead, ending on the side in a
Pompadour rosette, and on the other in a small
bunch of wheat ears and poppies. Black bows
of taffea or yelvet trim the bonnet; sometimes
the taffea is placed as a scarf across the bonnet,
and is edged with lace. The stl ings and fl were
should be of bright colors. Leghorn, for the
autumn, is generally decorated with rich dark
fancy ribbons, with autumn fruits. For the cool
mornings and evenings of .4ugust and Eleptember,
the light clear burnous is worn ; we see them of
brown gray, stripped black and white, Scotch
plaid, and cross-barred flannel. Tbo hood has
a tassel. All robes of pique are made with a
cassock of the same, thus obviating the necessi"
ty of any additional wrapping for the street.
Tho blaok silk burnous, trimmed with a ruche
of the same silk, is a very favorite garment ; it
effectually conceals the dress, and is therefore,
useful to wear over a morning pelgnoise.. Flow
ers and velvet bows are the fathionable evening
coiffures : the flowers are principally arranged
in wreathe, sometimes quite, but generally full
er behind than in front. The flowers most used
are wild roses, daisies of various colors, white
and red azaleas, ivy or hollyhock, acacia and
A Case of Eight Months' Standing Cured by
Michael Kelly, No. 117 Seventh, near Grant street,
Pittsburgh, says :
"Last July, while running on the river, on a cot
ton boat plying between Natchez and New Orleans,
I was taken with Fever and Ague. For eight long
months I suffered with this areadful disease. The
greater part of this limo I was unable to work, and
spent at least fifty dollars for different medicines,
but found no permanent relief. Three weeks ago,
one of my friends insisted upon my trying Bcerhave's
Holland Bitters, saying that a cure was guaranteed.
After taking it for one week, I must say I was a
sound man. I have been at work now for twe weeks
and have had ne return of tho Chills or Fever what
ever."
