DEAR TO DEADHEADS.
It gives us great pleasure to announce that
after next week, Free Passes upon Railroads
will be among the things that:were. By the
recent Convention of railroad officers at Phil
adelphia, it has been agreed to cut off ALL
Free Passes without distinction. Editors,
Legislators, Judges, County Commissioners,
and ail sorts of " deadheads," will have to
pay cash or stay at home, after next week.—
The necessities of the stockholders, who
have been without dividends on most of the
roads for some time past, have induced this
excellent reform. We are positively inform
ed that the resolutions of the Anti-Tax Con
vention did not have the slightest influence in
causing this action of the railroad convention.
The result, however, is the same. We shall
have no more " bribery and corruption. " It
was a needed reform—a reform which the in
terests of the stockholders in the roads mani
festly demanded, and we are rejoiced that the
railroad managers have determined upon it.
Land Sales Postponed.
The President has directed the postpone
ment of the land sales heretofore ordered to
be held in Kansas Territory rn the month of
November next, and the Acting Commissioner
of the General Land Office has issued a notice
accordingly, from which it will be seen that
sales will again advertised to be held in July
next, 1859:
Isithe last Genius of Liberty, the editor
T. •B. Searight, calls Jake Miller a liar four

Consummation of the Sale of the State
Governor Packer the State Treasurer. and
the Attorney General have concluded with
Win. G. Moorehead, Esq., President of the
Sunbury and Erie railroad, the last act ne
cessary to a consummation of the State canals
This consisted in the payment, by Mr. Moor
head, in his representative capacity, of the
sum of 52.1,250 this amount being 75 per
cent. of the excess of the price (53,500,00 u)
at which the canals were sold.
Bank Loans in 1857 and 1 868.
The United States Economist Foints out a
striking contrast between the state of the
money market in the months of August and
September in 1657 and 1853. The highea
point of the loa6, of the New York banks
last year was Au ust 8. Then commenced
the panic, and th e was a contraction of
.. 610,000,000 by the e of the month, and of
$4,300,000 for the singe week ending Sep
tember 5. The contra Lion for September al
together $1.2,000,00v. This year the loans
have increased $6,000,000 during the same
period in which they decreased that amount
last year. That paper adds : " Money, mean
time, accumulates, and the deposits in bank
are to-day (Sept. 41 $ 3 0,000,000 more than
for the same day last year, through absence
of all employment for it. The panic has
spent itself, debts are liquidated to a consid
erable extent, but business, so rudely shaken,
has not yet revived."

THE NXIId DISTRICT.
We, have already announced the fact that 1
the Democratic Conferees of the XXIId Dis
trict, which met at Bakerstown on the 16th
inst., after haVing nominated John Graham
and Lewis Z. Mitchell, of Butler, to save ap.-
pearances, both of whom declined, according
to the .previously arranged programme, re
solved that it was " INEXPEDIENT to nomi•
nate a Democratic candidate for Congress for
this District at the ensuing election." It was
long ago intimated that " things were all ar
ranged in Butler county, " and that the five
thousand Democratic v.,tes ut tho X.XIld Dis
trict were to be sold to Thomas Williams, the '
" man who made the Republican party," and
who still boasts that he " stands where he has
ever done so far as regards the principles and
platform of the Republican party." When
did it occur that expediency was adopted into
the Democratic platform to such an extent
that a Democratic Conference—one of them
at least a prominent office holder tinder Mr.
Buelianan's Administration- were willing to
saeriticP the party organization and leave it
ithout a Congressional candidate in an ire.
portant District for the sake of electing an
avowed Black Republican and most bitter op-
ponent of Democratic principles? Is Democ
racy so poor a thing, that, at a time when the
candidates elected may have to choose a Presi
dent of these United States, in case there is
no election by the people, six men shall say
to the Democratic voters of a large and popu
lous Congressional District, that it is Exrenie•
ENT that you should vote for Robert night
or Thomas Williams—both Black Republi•
cans of the first water? Do the gentlemen
who composed this Conference mean to say
that they do not desire that the Administra ,
tion shall have Democratic Congressmen to
carry out its m easures, or do they expect to
tnhll the people with the belief that Thomall
Williams %%ill ever support the measures of a
Democratic Administration lie does not say
he will. He "stands where he ever stood on
the Republican platform," and laughs in his
sleeve at the way he has led even Democratic
office holders by the nose, into supporting
himself—the great " I Am "—of Black Re'
poblicauism in Allegheny county. Looking
from a Democratic stand point, no man can
regard the action ~f the Conferees in any
other light than a preposterous piece of folly
and a bold attempt to disorganize the Democ
racy. The only excuse we have heard offered
for this action is, that Mr. Williams' intiu.
euce on the Anti-Tas question will aid
to elect the balance of the Democratic tick
et in Allegheny county, by securing lies
publican votes to it. The account will stand
Thomas NViriauls and his influence
Five thousand Democrats and their influence.. 5,000
Truly, the Democratic Conferees of Butler
and Allegheny counties have sold out cheap.
To buy ono Black Re'publican's influence,
they have disregarded that of live thousand
Democrats. But what is Butler county to
gain by the arrangement The Democracy
of Butler :tre left without a candidate, and
will not even have Thomas Williams' intlu•
mace iu return to aid them in- electing their
e."uuty ticket
This t,miporizitic , policy—this doctrine of
expediency to elect' an opposition Congress
man—this departure from the usages of the
party, in order that the Democrats of the
Twenty-second District shall be compelled to
vote for a Black Republican, or not vote at all
at an important Congressional election, has
nothing of Democracy about it. In no ease
is it expedient for the National Democracy to
give tip their organization even to insure a
temporary success, or to depart from the
usages of the party. Time makes all things
right, and it is better to right a wrong
through the medium of established usages,
than to attempt it by a departure therefrom.
Adhesion to usages is the safest and surest
way to remedy a supposed wrong. By de
parting from usages, men may achieve what
they deem to be a good result, but they also
bring about a host of bad results. Those are
no true Democrats who prefer the gratifica
tion of their own desires, and preferences to
the success of the party and the establish.,
merit of its principles. A firm adherence to
the usages of the party and adding strength
to its organization by every honorable means
has given to the Democratic cause so many
victories.' An opposite course is always a
cause of subsequent regret. The Democracy
has always stood by the country and advanced
is interests. It has been able to do this
through the unity and strangth of party or
ganization, and supporting its time,lionored
usages. Let the Democracy of the Twenty
second District stand by the party now, and
not permit themselves to be ditfraxichized.—
If the Conferees are men of "expediency,"
who will sell their Democratic birth-right to
Tom Williams tor a mess of pottage, let the
Democratic masses seek a leader. With two
Republican candidates in the field, they stand
a fair chance of succe‘m. Will they suffer it to
be snatched from them, because the Conferees
deem it expedient that Thomas Williams
shall go to Congress'? We think not.
Let the Conferees appointed at the Nation
al Democratic Convention, which met on the
15th of September, at once communicate with
the sound Democrats of Butler, and place in
the field a Democratic candidate for Con
gress in the Twenty4second District, or let
the Democrats of the district themselves put
a candidate in the field. The chalices of sue.
teas are good, and if the six gentlemen who
met at Bakerstown deem it " inexpedient" to
pl h ce a Democratic nominee in the field, let
them take the responsibility upon their own
shoulders, but let the Democratic voters of the
district adhere to their party organization,
and select a Democrat whom they shall deem
it expedient to vote for.
It men in whom the party and the admini.
istration, have heeetoforo reposed confidence,
have become so lost to all true Democratic
feeling, allowed themselves to be sc led away
from the true interests of the party, by the
interest which they take in local issues, as to
favor an avowed opponent of the Democ
racy, for congressional honors by refusing to
seek out and place in the field a Democrat
for fear of defeating him, it is time that the
people themselves took the matter in their own
hands. Let the National Demonracy of the
country understand that if James A. Gibson,
Nelson Campbell, John Swan, of Allegheny
county, and the conferees from Butler, deem
it " inexpedient " to support the Democratic
organization of the X X lld District of Penn.,
sylvasnia, the people of the district do not
think so. Let the country know there are
some live Democrats left yet who will not
consent to be made use of to secure the
election of a Black Republican Congress.
man—whether it be M'Knight or Wills
Hams. If Butler county wishes the nomi
inee, let her bring out Jacob Ziegler, a
good man and a true Democrat, or if Butler
yields her claims, let the Allegheny Demo
crats find a man. We hope the Democracy
of the XXIId District are not extinguished
like a farthing rush-light, by this unheard of
couraeof their conferees. Let us hear from

ANDRE NI ; BURKE, ENCL.
This gentleman is now, for the first time in
his life, a candidate for office. Foi thirtOie
years, as boy and man, he has been a resident
of Pittsburgh; a pupil in its= schoOls ; a stu
dent and graduate of its university; 'a dis,,
tinguished and succesful metnber of its legal
profession ; and. in every sense actively and
honorably identified with the interests,the in,
stitntions and the people of our city and
county and State. Ile has never sought of
fice, which, to one of his ability and public
spirit, is, in these days, an honorable distinc
tion and a merit. Ile has more than once de.
dined to allow his name to be used 'in
nection with a canvas for some of the highest
offices in the State. He has for more than
twenty years devoted himself to the arduous
profession of the law, with a zeal and dili
gence that long since placed him in the front
rank of the profession, and made him admit.-
tedly one of the most able lawyers and elo
( neat advocates in the CowmonuealLl'•
Eighteen months ago he was urged to accept
a nomination to fill a Vieftney on our Supreme
Bench, which I e pos'itively declined, and la
bored to secure that nomination for another
of our distinguished citizens. In the same
year more than one newspaper presented his
name for Governor, hut he promptly forbid
such use of it.
But while declining nominations, however
honorable, and offices, however lucrative, Mr.
Burke has shown no lack of interest in public
affairs, and no hesitancy in advocating the
principles and policy of the party to which he
has ever steadily and unswervingly adhered.
lie is a Democrat in the best sense of the
word—at heart, a❑d from conviction----and no
one can show a clearer record, or poi❑t to
more efficient and faithful services, as a public
speaker and debater ; as an influential member
of National Conventions, and two or three
times as a Presidential elector.
But the people have at length resolved that
the time has come when he must assume the
duties and chances of a public position, that
of candidate for Congress. It is well:known
that he did not desire this nomination ; that
it was made in his absence, without his con
sent ; and at first when made known to him,
promptly declined. But the urgency of
many friends, sonic staunch Republicans
among the number, has at last induced him
to stand the canvas, with a strong probability
of being forced by it into public life, and
into a position of great responsibility.
That responsibility be is abundantly com
petent to meet. He well knows the people of
this Congressional District, and their wants
and interests, and our manufacturing
facili
ties and capacities, and in his speeches al..
ready made to the people, he has announced
himself as an advocate fur a rewision of the
present tariff, and such a revision that while
it will afford more revenue, which is needed,
it will also afforl more protection to the great
interests of Pennsylvania, and especially of
this region of our State. This is no now
tenet with Mr. Burke. He is thoroughly a
Pennsylvanian, and cannot. fail to know the
interests of its great community of producers
of iron, glass, and other fabrics ; and its coal,
and numerous other sources of wealth and
commercial advancement.
He believes, too, that so place is better fi
ted by its natural resources and its skilled
lalyir and enterprise, for the location of that
National Foundry and Armory which the gen
eral Government is expected soon to 13 stctl,listi
somewhere in the country. Such an estab
lishment here would bring millions of govern
ment money into our midst fur labor and
materials, and food. It would give a new and
strong impulse to our manufacturing industry
and the general prosperity.
And in securing these desirable and import.,
ant objects, who, from this District, could do
more at Washington than Mr. Burke? His
position in the dominant party of the Union
and in the Senate and House; his relations to
the Federal Government ; his high character
as a citizen and an advocate, and his indomi
table energy and perseverence would give him
a weight in such matters at the seat of gov
ernment that few others could acquire, and
that no Republican could aim at, hope fur, or
be expected to have. As the nominee and
the choice of the people of this District, Mr.
Burke could render it more substantial and
valuable service in the next Congress than it
has had before in any Congress for twenty
years, or than any Republican, however able
and zealous, could possibly accomplish—aye,
far more ; and be would have the will as well
as the power.
To those who know him, as most of our
citizens do, we need but make brief mention
of the agreeable social qalities, the gentle
manly deportment and general intelligence
of our candidate for Congress. They are such
as would assure to him an enviable position
at the federal capital, and contribute to give
him that influence in the councils of our
great' nation which this district 18 emir ,
tied to, hut has seldom enjoyed.
There remains but one topic for remark
in connection with our subject. It is the po
sition of our candidate for Congress on the
absorbing question of taxation to meet the
interest on bonds issued by our:city and coun
ty to the railroads. We are informed that
he has always considered such municipal sub
scriptions and issues for such purposes as un
constitutional and inexpedient. In this, his
friends atiim that his views aro in accordance
with those expressed by the Chief Justices
Lowrie and Lewis in their dissenting opin
ions in a well known case, and with the well
known " Somerset letter " of Chief Justice
Black.
We are informed too, that be contends that
our Supreme Court and the courts of last re
sort in other States, have an undoubted right,
not unfrequently exercised, to overrule or re
verse their former decisions, when deemed
erroneous
But as this subject is too broad to be pre
sented fairly at the close of an artole for a
daily paper, we may reserve it for another
notice, when we fully understand his views
in detail ; and we close this, by expressing
our faith in his long tried Democracy, and
our confidence that he is too good a lawyer
and citizen to advocate anything unworthy
of the character of either.

Is Pennsylvania atone, , there was produced
last year, nearly 450,000 tons of pig iron ; of
manufactured iron, 227,837 tons. The entire
production last year was 1,000,000,000 tons,
while the consumption was only 1,386;000 tons,
a fact in itself which, to a greater extent, ac
count for the unusually small demand from En
gland. The Iron manufactured in the States,
in 1855, was as much as it was in England 85
years ago. In Pennsylvania alone there aro
employed 40,000 persperson,taking the furnaces,

NOW Volume of Team
The widow of SrUnmer . L. Fairfield, a poet
of brilliant geniusi,. is in, the city disposing of
anew volume of tales written by her daugh
ters', Getievieve and Gertrude Fairfield. She
is an unfortuOate lady, whose trials through
lire have excited the sympathiefs of friend and
stranger, and deserves a kind reception from
all whom she approaches. The following
from a Boston paper is worthy of attention :
MII.I. SUMMER L. FAIRFIELD —This extraor
dinary lady,• whose life, trials and energies have
made her so generally known. called upon ns
yesterday, with a beautiful volume written by
her accomplished daughters, Genevieve and Ger-
trade Fairfield.
The lady is a native of New Jersey, 'and of
Scotch ancestry. She is a niece to the late
artist and sculptor, John Frazer, Esq , whose
genius and talsnt have long been known by
many of the loVers of art in our city—several of
whose productions adorn the Athenaeum at thin
present time. The busts of Webster and Per.
kins, and Marshall, and Dr. Bowditoh, are all,'
with many others, the work of his genius.
Mrs. Fairfield was married in 1836 to the late
poet Fait field, 'whose name is so fa.mPiary known
by the ndmirera of his genius in this country,
and Massachusetts his native Slate.
We do not Speck of this lady with the intention
to give a shetel) of her life, for a life like her's,
so full of incident and trial, and -so remarkable
for its saorifice, and so painful in the enumera
tion of domestic sorrows, would occupy mush
time and would fill volumes. Wedded in early
life to an erratic eon of genius, she has, for
years, labored to support and educate her hild
ren with an enduring persevorenoe to which we
know no parallel. The bistory of her troubles
is more a wild tale of romance than a story of
real life.

M. Hopkins, Esq.,was nominated for Congress
by acalintion: and a series ..of resolutions
adopted, which, while they affirm the well es 4
tablished principles of the Democratic party,
are calculated to unite the conservative men
of all parties, and prevent the election of Thad
deus Stevens, to Congress. Henry Shreiner,
John it. Brenerean, Henry E. Lehman, and
Samuel Hull were nominated for the Legislas
ture. Thomas W. Henderson was nominated
