Correspondence of the Journal.
Philadelphia, September 8, 1355.
We are at last assailed on all sided by the
note of preparation for the contest nest month.
Tbe Administration, or old Locofoeo partr
-"have eoae out with their State Ticket for the
"city and a, miserable farce they have made of
it. Oa the whole ticket there is not one name
that would add any lustre to our Legislative
halls, or reflect the slightest credit on the in
telligence of our citizens ia tbeir choice of re
presentatives; and if there was any probability
of their election, it would be a disgrace to let
icir names stand in nomination. But, faith
in the integrity of this Gibraltar of the Amer
ican party, will not let our friends at a distance
suppose we are sleeping here. Xo indeed.
"Still water runs deep," and our unfortunate
President will receive another grand rebuke
for infairous proceedings, within the next fire
"weeks. "Sam" is not dead, but has both his
eyes wide open, and in silence is observing
'what is going on around him, and when he
speaks, his thunder tones will startle even the
"uutcrrificd Democracy."
Riot and bloodshed appear to be the compo
nent part ef Locofoco organization and mis
irule, and to e a able the rowdy portion of our
city more fully to have their wn way, a base
attempt is being iaadc to reduce the police
force, under the guise of "reducing the expen
ses of the city;" and foremost in this work of
'reform," stands a representative of the old
district of Jfoyaracnsing, (which has ever been
uoted for its firm allegiance to Liquor-stUing,
Locofoco rIe aud rowdyism) who ffiYer loses
n opportunity to cast censure on the head of
our police force the Mayor. Ouly three days
since a so-called Democratic meeting ended in
a riot and murder, and disturbances have char
acterized all their gatherings. When shall we
be freed from the tyranny of such masters ?
The Liquor League and Foreign Party are
joining hands to overthrow the mighty Sam.'
Sleeting have been held to combine interests
and provide for unity of action between tiieni.
0 Democracy! hast thou come to this? Shaiue
that such a fate should e'er be thine. This ca
tering for foreign influence, and courting the
debased drunkard and supporting him in his
appetites, is too degrading a position for any
honorable man to occupy, and serves to exhib
it in a iroper light the miserable shifts, our
fallen administration is resorting to, to prop
up a thoro'ly rotten structure. The overwhel
ming defeat in Vermont of this faction, shows
that light is breaking in on us from the East,
and ere long even benighted Missouri will feel
the vivifying influence of its rays.
Intelligence has reached here of the nomina
tion of an occupant of Moyamensing Prison
for Canal Coturnisioner by the Republican con-
vention in Pittsburg. This sounds rather
strange, yet lor policy, it may be well, but the
question will be evaded. Is Passmore "Will
iamson qualified for the duties of the office? I
Lao not. He is generally considered a smart,
energetic young man, and thoro'ly opposed to
Pieree, Atehinson, Stringfellow & Co., so that
there may be a pretty strong vote for him, but
if Ex-Gov. Keeder run ia opposition the chan
ces aro doubtful. A week or ten days will
how some further light on the matter.
The distressing news still continues to reach
its daily of the devastation of the Yellow fever
st Xorfolfc and Portsmouth, Va. It really j
seems as if nothing but absolute abandonment
of both cities will abate the disease. Most lib-1
cral as our citizens have been, still the call is
for more assistance. Are there not some of '
your men of wealth, who can aid us ? Can you j
not undertake to raise a contribution, for the
suffering ? Such a scene as is now witnessed
at Norfolk has not been presented to the eye
in our country before, and as Liethreu we are
bound to extend our aid. Cannot Clearfield
end something? The Treasurer of the Fund,
in this city, is Tho's Webster, Esq., who will
care for any amount of money scut him.
The Produce of the West is fast pouring in
upon us. Flour is arriving hero on the Penn.
i. R. at the rate of about 3,000 barrels a day.
One day this week the receipts at Xew l'ork
were over 10,000 bbls. Is there any wonder
Jthat Flour u deeliniug? Sale have been made
ficro as loiv as SC-75, tho' the average price is
about $8. By letters and conversations with
Western men here, wo continue to receive the
most glowing accounts from the harvest thro'
iOUt the West, and yesterday a Merchant from
Iowa told me that never wcro the prospects for
heir State so encouraging as they are now,
every one seems full of life and business; and
In a word they were doing well. Olivkr.
P. S. The Supreme Court has this day refused
to grant the Habeas Corpus asked for by Pass
more Williamson. It must be left, therefore,
for the People to decide the question, and seal
the fale of every judge upon that Bench. O.

These Paints will stand any climate, without
crack or blister, and harden by exposure; thus
making in time an enamel of Stone, protecting
Wood from decay, and Iron and other metals from
rust and corrosion. They differ essentially from
the so-called Mineral Paints of tho day, which ore
principally Ochres, and Clays, and are entirely
worthless.
SILVER'S riasiic Paints are purely METAL
7C containing no Alumin or Clay.
They are levigated finely, mix readily with Lin
seed Oil, (without the trouble of grinding. and
flow under the brush as freelp as the best White
Lead, and excel all others in body or covering
properties, one pound of which will cover as much
surface as two pounds of White Lead, reducing the
cost two-thirds. There are six distinct uolors, viz :
Olive, I Light Brown, i Light Chocolate,

the eye is subject Wheio every other means

TESTIMOXY. The undersigned practition
ers in medicine ia (he city of New Y'ork, having
had frequent occasion to witness the practice of
Drs. IcBrumi and Duftoa. in diseases of tha Ear
and Eye. laying aside all profession! jealousy,
freely admit, that (he course pursued by them in
treating diseases of these delicate organs, from th
UMpar;:iltled siteec.'ix iUtrniij it, ueJl worth th
atti ntion of our profcssioiiiil brethren throughout
the United States, feeling assured as we dot that
Aural Surgery has not met with thit attention
which its importance demands. Their system of
treating diseases of the middle and internal Ear,
by ' Mciical IVwM." particularly in chronic or
complicated cases, forms a new era in the practies
of Aural Surgery ; such cases yielding in almost
rvrry instance- to this Hem nn-i jmirerftil azent.
This practice fills un a void ubit h has long been
felt by the general practitioner, enabling him to
eP successfully u-ith every rise where perfect
formation esists.
In diseases of the Eye, they seldom rcrjuire to
resort to the operation.
As skillful Aurisis and Oculists, enthusiastically
devoted to their profession, we cordially recom
mend them to such as may require their aid
