THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
The opposition to the National Democracy
seem to suppose that the differences of opin
ion, which exist among Democrats in regard
to the policy pursued by the Convention of
the .18th of August, which nominated the
ticket, will result in weakening its support.
Thero is no danger of such a result. No dif
ferences of opinion upon questions which do
not affect the vital interests and principles of
the party, will affect the fealty of any Dams
oorat to the organization of his party. The
regularly nominated ticket a the party should
always receive the support of every Demo
crat. On every occasion of nomination, it
almost inevitably occurs, that something takes
place, which disappoints some of the mem
bers of the party, and expressions of discon
tent are beard. It is perfectly proper for all
Democrats to speak out their honest opinions,
and they are no true adherents to the party
who object to this right. If a Democratic
brother offends, it is right and proper to re
prove him. In all matters, not of primary
and fundamental importance to the party or
ganization, every man has a right to enjoy
and to express his own opinion. We claim
that right ourselves, and have boldly exercis •
ed it. We take the widest Democratic ground
for freedom of opinion and freedom of spe,.
It is our right, and we will maintain mat all
hazards. We, in common. svktWlarge num
ber of the best Democrats aAllegheny coun
ty, do not chooseto-.aand upon a platform,
which 100 "for success to a single second
ar-Y _de: We prefer the platform of Nation
/a/Democratic principles. Yet those who differ
and those who agree with us 3n side issues are
alike Democrats, and while it is our duty, as a
Democrat, to reprove the acts of those who
have been willing to place themselves upon a
plattorm of temporary expediency, which, in
our opinion, is not Democratic, it is also our
duty as well as theirs to support the regular
ly nominated ticket of the party as long as
none but Deocrats are placed upon it.—
Nominations made by established means and
with admitted fairness should always receive
the undivided support of the party making
them. A contrary course always endangers
future, as well as present, success. The op
position in the presentcampagn have nothing
to hope from any supposed dissensions in the
Democratic family. Our party is like the
Irishman and his wife who had their little
family quarrels, but when a neighbor inter
fered, both turned in and give him a thorough
thrashing. If Democrats differ in opinion
upon certain questions, still they make com
mon cause against the mongrel forces of the
Snow Nothing, Black Republican Opposition,
which has ever maligned, misrepresented and
endeavored to defeat them in all their patriotic
efforts for the good of the people and of the
nation. The people know that to the Demo
cracy are most safely entrusted both their
own local interests and the great interests of
the country. They know that the Democratic
ticket, presented this fall, is so far in advance
of that presented by the Opposition, in all the
elements of honor, honesty, capacity and gen
eral desire for the public good, that they will
rally to the polls on the 12th of October, and
elect it even against the overwhelming odds,
which has been the Opposition boast in this
county. Give us Democratic candidates to
vote for, and the Democracy, like true men,
will rally to their support. We have a full
ticket, with the exception of a Congressman
in the Twenty second District, which will
receive the unanimous support of the party.
Runt & Miner

, TROS. J. JEFTRIF.S was on Saturday nomi
nited for Sheriff, and Harman Baugh, for
Register, by the Convention to nominate a
Citizens' ticket, in Philadelphia.
We are informed that the Democracy ot
this District are most justly indignant at the
course pursued by the Conferees at Bakers
town, in refusing to give them a candidate
for Congress. The feeling of discontent is
very general. We have been asked the ques
tion whether the act of the Conferees is bind
ing upon the Democrats of the I listrict. Cer
tainly not. Had the Conference performed
the duty with which it was entrusted, and
made a nomination, their action would cer
tainly have been binding upon the Demure , .
cy of the District. But they were not en
trusted with any authority to say that a nomi
nation was "inexpedient," and , thus leave
the five thousand Democrats of the District
the sorry choice between voting for a Black
Republican or not at all. What the six men
did they did of their own motion and on their
own responsibility—not as the agents of the
Democracy, and they are not bound, in the
slightest degree, by their action. The agents
whom they empowered to select a candidate
for Congress have not done so. It is now the
duty of the Democrats of the District, either
to select more faithful agents to serve them
or to place a candidate in the field them
selves. This we hope and believe they will
do. It is a most importt matter and there
should be no unnocossar delay. The time
intervening between now and the election is
short. - Let them be up and doing.

KARL FORMES
The announcement of the forth-coming
musical Festivals of the great Basso, assisted
by Miss Hattie Andem, Madame Schuman,
Mr. Perring and a full Orchestra under the di-
cetion of Carl Anschutz, has caused an un
usual excitement in the fashionable and musi
cal circles of our city—greater probably
than has been known since the advent o
Jenny Lind.
His personal history as well as his great
musical powers, has rendered Karl Formes a
man in whom the public take no ordinary in ,
terest. His father and grand-father were
both soldiers, the former under the banner of
Napoleon, and be has inherited the ardor of
his disposition, and the executive energy 0
his character, from his ancestors. An intense
thirst fur freedom and hatred of iqipression,
mark his character. At Vierma, he held the
topmost position in the musical world for
four years. W hen the re elntion of I'4/.4
broke out, the spirit inherited by the young
artist did riot leave him at this juncture. In
the enthusiasm of his nature, he went up to
the popular wave, and in the struggle sided
with the can !,Pof the pelple, being aromigst
the foremo‘t in erecting the barricades for
their defence and protection. At such a mo
ment art was not hallowed in his eyes—his
own position as an artist was forgotten and
abjured. The cause of humanity only was
present with him , and for that he was will
ling to peril all he possessed, all he hoped
and even life itself. Vienna surrendering,
Formes departed for Holstein, where he hes
came foremost in the association of Taum,
still hopeful for freedom, and firmly deter
mined to sustain it till despotism proved its
strength and resistence to it was useless.—
Formes then resumed the pursuit of his art till
his name became familiar wherever civiliza
tion has introduced the refinements of art.—
The antagonistic position of Formes, toward
the Austrian government, could not be for
gotten, and bis extradition was insisted upon
as due to offended majesty. Accordingly he
hastened to London, and there, in 1849,
formed the celebrated German Opera Com
pany at Drury Lane. In that association of
artists, were those whose talents were of the
highest order. Caradori and Redersdori,
were the prime donnas, while Ricbhardt was
the tenor, and Anschutz the conductor.
In England his reputation was at once es
tablished. His magnificent voice rising ma-
jestically above organ and orchestra, made
an oratorio incomplete without him. He has
come to America, not depending upon hie
name, but upon his tale It. tle is the
most attractive voc4,tiof the ago in the role
which he asse -- aies. His songs aro a treat
and he 6gB English with wonderful effect,
LSsisted as he is by the accompaniment of
the best talent from the New York Academy,
comprising the leading 'artistes and a full ors
chestra under Anschutz, there can be no
doubt than his entertainments will present
the greatest musical attraction possible.
The sale of reserved seats will commence
on Tuesday morning, at Mellor's Music
store, Wood street.
(Fur the Ilorulug Post.]
In this day, when there is so much said and
written about anti:taxation and repudiation, is
there not danger that other great interests of the
country be overlooked, and lest this should be
the ease, will you suffer me to make some re
marks in reference to the High School In the
first place, let mo remark that, I do not intend
that any thing I may say should be understood
as depreciatory of the Common School system,
for this I regard as amongst the most valuable
institutions of tho country, and the glory of our
Commonwealth, but every institution, supported
by the people's money, should, and must, stand
on its own merits, or go down, and this I con-
ceive not to be the case with the High School, as
it is, at present, and is liable in the future to be,
conducted. In order that an institution be a
public benefit., it must be accessible to by the
masses—that is—it must be attainable to al.,
conditions of the people, that they may partake
of its benefits. But the door by which this school
is entered is too straight, and . this will be found
to be the case. When we inquire how many
under the age of fifteen years have been admit
ted during the past year, and many of those chil
dren who have been uniform in their attendance
in school from five years old, it will bo found
tzar ten over the age of sixteen that applied for,
were denied, admittance, to every one that gain
ed admittance under the age of fifteen years.
Now, if this is the case, (and I am satisfied,
when investigated,it will ho found true,) not one
in every twenty of the children of the Ward
&heat; will over receive the benefits of a High
School education. For this reason, the great
majority of parents either wish to give their
children trades, or are too poor to support their
children after they are sixteen or seventeen years
old, while they go to school and produce nothing
for their own support. Now, is it fair—is it
just that the mechanic and laboring man should
pay a heavy tax to support au institution, from
which he has no hopes of reaching any benefit.
Yes, but say some, the mechanic has ao taxes to
pay. This is not tract What Wallet has not
been told by his landlord, when his rent was
advanced on him, that the reason of the advance
of rent was the rise of taxes ? Yes, every me
chanic, laboring man and widow, that occupies
two rooms, yes, one room in the city, has his or
her full of tax in the shape of rent to pay
to support the High School, as well as the rich
man who lives in his own house on Penn street.
Bat there is another serious objection to the
High School, and that is—it impoverishes the
Ward or Common Schools, where the masses of
our chill en are after all to receive all their ed
ucation. Already we see the principals and
teachers of our excellent Ward Schools drown,
scribed in the branches they teach, and reduced
in their pay, thus lowering in importahoe and
usefulness of our Common Schools, to build up a
splendid select school where the few will have
extraordinary advantages, while the many will
have miserable and limited advantages. Bat
this has ever been the tendency of men in all
ages—favor the few and neglect the ataxy. But
I verily believe, when this High School will de
velop its workings, the people will pay that at
tention to the case that the subject demands.

A Protest Against Repudiation.
It will be recollected that the last Democratic
Convention of Allegheny county, paused a retie
lution foregoing the consideration of National
and State policy, for the purpose of confining
the present campaign to tho single issue arising
out of the payment of interest on certain rail
rond bonds. The intetlianee that a Democratic
convention could be found, willing to deny the
great principles of the party, and make an isque
in favor of repudiation, was received with morti
fication by the Democracy of the whole State.—
We felt at the time that this eonvention did not
represent the sterling Democracy of Allegheny,
who in many contests for principle have ileLiy
stood up for the party, when victory in that
strong opposition county was out of the question;
and the last Pittsburgh Poet, brings no the Intel-
ligenoe that the honored DetateorOie le oiers are
determined that they will no longer rest uuder
the imputation of tieing represented by, or giv
ing countenance to, a convention capable of sel
ling Democratic principles for a consideration.
That paper contains a protest against the course
pursued by the conventjon, signed by such men
as William Wilkins, Charles j- - 1!;alor, John Anti
denim, Hopewell Hepburn, Ucorgo P. Hamilton,
R. Biddle Roberts, 13. W. Cass, John Birming
ham, and others. Those men wiii ho recognized
as among the foremost in battliug for flanaeertic
principles. While they will abide by the decis
sion of the convention, as far as the candidates
are concerned, knowing them all to be Demo
crats, they protest &gallant the resolutions, and
warn their framers that their auf.poTt of the
candidates mint not ho taken as an endorsement
of their resolutions.
We are gratified to find the beet men in the
party boldly putting themselves on record, and
rebuking the ruinous policy of the convention.
That policy is nothing less than reptidiation.
That convention now occupies the same ground,
as a party would in the State, that should declare
in favo of a repudiation of the State del t,
be
eaueo the improvemenst for which the debt was
incurred have not been profitable. Allegheny
county gave her bonds to aid in the oon.true-
tion of certain railroads, and now a portion of
her citizens are willing to repudiate the debt
and bring dishonor upon the name of the county.
If the investment had proved fortunate, there
would uow be no complaints ; but as it has not,
the burden must bo thrown off at the risk of
the loss of honor and honesty.
The Democrutte party has always lost ohm a
ter and strength, by coalitions and compromis
es. The bold stand taken by Judge Wilkins,
and those who sot with him, iu repudiating the
repudiators, will receive the cordial applause of
the Demorcacy in all quarters of the Common
wealth.
Scene gm B natropolltan Railroad Car
Yesterday afternoon, as one of the oars on the
Metropolitan Railroad rolled along its rails, a
lady, extensively beflounoed and expensiyely Grin
°lined, beckoned to the polite conductor as it wee
passing West street, in order to tak::: passage to
the south' end. Her robe was in a state of deli,
Mons newness; its tissue folds were hardly cold
from the modiste's last artistic touch, and her at ,
tire altogether was gotten up evidently with a
reckless regardlessness of expense. The oar was
only partly full—one side free from incumbrance.
Upon its cushions she sat herself at ease, with
thought for her robe's intactness uppermost, and
spread its voluminous flounces carefully to their
natural amplitude. She oast her eyes at the coup+
ductor with an air of composure, sangfroid, and
self,collectedness.
" Conductor," she asked, in the blandest of
manners and most mellifluous of tones, " how
many seats do I occupy
Taken by surprise, he glanced from one side to
the other of hor extended dress, and then at her.
Tho lady's facie was serenely interrogative.
" About four, I should think, madam," he said,
wondering what would come next
" Hero are twenty cents," she said, dropping
the dimes from her lavenderrkidded fingers into
his extended palm. "I do not wish to be dis,
turbed."
One would have thought . the possibility of disc
turbing such a supreme embodiment of compo
sure rather impossible ; but having secured here
sell from the chance, in spite of stares and whis4
pets, the quadrupled fare pursued her way hap,.
pily and unoreasedly to her destination. It was a
spectacle to admire. We commend her example
to all-ladies of similar balloonist' dimensions.

'Phi Strangest Circumstance of the Year
A Horse Dragging a Dead Body Three
Week•
Farly in August, John Rawle, a lad of sixteen
years,l;living in Volcano, Amador county, who
had vainly been endeavoring to obtain hie fa
ther's consent to go to Frazer River, diattpnears
ed, taking with him a valuable horse belonging
to the family. It was Euppos3d he had started
for Fraser River, and so little anxiety was felt
in regard:to him. On the 15th of August, his
body was found in the Butte Ditch, a few miles
east of Jackson, attached by a "lariat" to a half
dead horse. From appearances, the boy, on the
night after leaving home, lay down to sleep with
the horse tied to his person to prevent his es
cape. The animal, becoming unmanageable,
through fright, in the night, bad run off and
dragged his master by the rope until the boy's
life was extinct. Afterward the horse had con
tinued to grace around, dragging the body along
for three weeks. Finally the corpse had been
dragged into the ditch, where it became entan
gled beyond the horse's strength to extricate it.
In his efforts to pull loose, the horse had out his
neck to the bone with the rope. Tho boy's re
mains were horribly mutilated Most of hie
limbs were broken, and the flesh rubbed bare
from the bone.—California Paper.

struggles, which culminated in the Presiden

the adoption of the resolution should not bo eon.,
sidered as a reflection upon the personal intep
rity of General Washington in favoring the
trefity, it was only carried by a small majority.
What an illuoirtAis . ! i. (loot; this memorable assault
upon the private character of General Washing
ton afford of the violence of party feeling at that
memorable time
The Jay Treaty was a most objectionable and
humiliating one, even in the opinion of its most
prominent advocates, and was only ratified be
cause it was deemed preferable to a war in the
then mate of the country. Ono provision was
struck out by the Senate. it teas agreed by
Mr. Jay and the British Government, that the
United States should not import any raw cotton
to Europe ! What a remarkable ignoraacs of the
future induced this stipulation! Whitney's cot
ton..gin had hardly come into effeot, and Mr. Jay
honestly believed that it was a point of but little
importance, as what cotton we raised was need
ed for home consumption. He little thought that,
within a single life time, our exports of that ar
ticle would reach one hundred and thirty mil
lions of dollars a year, and be one-third of our
total exports. The statesmen of Great Britain
did not foresee the day was close at hand, when
it was a matter of necessity for them to import,
their cotton from the United States, nut being
able to obtain it anywhere else. Had the stip
ulation stood, they would have'been the first to
ask for its abrogation, it being quite as prejudi
cial to their interests as it was to ours.
So cold and hostile was Great Britain to the
United States, that it was ten years after she ac
knowledged our independence before she would
condescend to send a minister or diplomatic rep
resentative to the the United States, or enter into
any commercial arrangements with us. She res
fused to carry out her argroement of 1783, to
surrender our northern posts, such as Oswego,
Detroit and others ; but held on to them for eleven
long years, in defiance of solemn treaty stipula
tion. Our Minister in England was treated with
contempt 1 Yet, strange to say, the ultra Feder
al faction had more affection and partiality for
Great Britain than they had for our ally, Fran co,
which had assisted us to gain our independence,
and, immediately after, concluded a commercial
treaty with ns upon the most i hvorable footing.
Never was political ingratitude more heartlessly
and disgustingly displayed.
When General Washington retired from tue
Presidency, in 1797, occurred the closest Presi
dental contest in our annals, between John
Adams the candidate for the Federalists, and
Thomas Jeffereop, the earalidate of the Democ
racy. The elcetorial vote stood seventy-one for
the former to sixty-eight for the latter. The
complexion of the vote . was very similar to that
which was given, sixty years later, for President"
Buchanan and John C Fremont, Every North
ern State voted against the Democracy, with the
exception of glorious old Pennsylvania--she
wont fur Thomas Jefferson ! Mr. Adamsobtain-
ed but two electoral votes south of the Potomac ;
but they made him 'President.
One man in each of the electoral colleges of
Virginia and North Carolina separated himself
from the rest, diregar led the unacimoits public
sentiment for Jefferson in those States, and
purely from old-rirrointionary recollections, and
associations of the man voted for Mr. Adams.
These single per-equal votes preyed wonderfully
important. They kept Thomas Jefferson from
being the direct successor of General Washing
ton in the Presidental chair, aid thereby brought
into being the monarchal alien and sedition laws,
the oppressive acts regarding foreigners, the
unnecessary war with France in 1798, and
other important measures which came near do
stroying our republican form of Government,
and so unfortunately signalized the unhanPy and
deplorable Administration of John Adams. In
one respect, perhaps, it was fortunate that the
Demobracy were beaten in 1796. The result
showed the people that, if the Federal leaders
were not in favor of a monarchy, they at least
sanctioned measures that made our Republican
Government practically a despotism. The red, ,
olleotions of that Federal triumph satisfied the
public with Federalism for more than a genera
tion, and is to' day a stumbling block in the way
Of its success in its present guise of ', Repnbli
canism.'? How etrange,it is that when after sixty
years had passed away the political field of 1856
presented almost the same appearance with that
of 1796, and that the same States which made
Mr. Buchanan President, voted for Jeffersou
sixty years ago, and that ho got ocaroely any
thing which voted against that founder of oar
organization. Threo generations of men had
passed off the stage of notion, but the relative
position of parties was still the same! Inter
esting and instructive political fact.
