I TIIK CIIU()NTICLE. The fulhicimj artii let were crowded out latt vei k. la Riches to be a Test ? We Lave beard respectable men of both parties, who have (half way at least) ob jected to our candidate for County Com niissiuucr, oo the grouud that bo was not a very heavy tax payer, and therefore not m lilc.ly lo b igil.n, in t .wpomditi.ro of money as richer men. This idea will not bear examination. The truth is, some rich men and some poor uiun ure extrava gant, and some are close and economical. The very worst and most reckless rulers, are rich men, as the history cf the world shows; for they have the least sympathy, naturally, with poor men and hard work ers. Neither more or less wealth is any criterion ot a tnau's FITNESS. A little ob servation of State, National, County or Borough matters, will convince any one, that among the most profuse and prodigal ruoDey-iipeuders, and the most grinding and rpprcssivo tax-layers, kicii men arc promiuent. Those who have no property, are perhaps equally "liberal" with other people's inouey ! wbilo those in middling circumstances whose property is small, and fairly earned will always bo found most truly ecouomical,prudeut and faithful guardians of the taxablcs' interests. But has it come to this, in Union coun ty, in free Pennsylvania, that a man is to be objected to for an office, because he mnt woallhv 7 It is truA. ih.t in tha South, the 300,000 slave-holders monopo lize all the offices worth having, leaving a million of poor whites proscribed as un lit for office.

We ask the ; Republican Freemen of Lappy America if wealth, instead of merit, is to be the sole passport to power ? If every man of small capital is to be kept out of office ? Mechan-1 ics, laboring men, and professional men j of limited incomes, should answer such in- j suits in the most direct and effectual man- . ner by their votes. A man who, like James Pross, has earned a very moderate fortune fperhaps equal to his opponent's, Mr. Moyer) by the labor of bis bands, has the requisite experience, the right appreciation of the valuo of money, and the love and practice of economy, to render him a most lit, pru- j dent, and safe depository of trust on the j part of his fellow citizens. lis inherited no great estate he has gained not a dol lar by trade or speculation but he has a neat little home, which is honestly and hardly won by thirty years of ceaseless toil. That home, and the homo of all others in like circumstances, he would sa credly guard from needless taxation ; fir the little that a poor man pots is, comjtar aticely, a far more rjriecout burden than the heavier taxes paid Ly the rich. eoTTbe Telegraphic Despatch of last week, announcing that the " Cable is all right," was premature and exaggerated. A later and more detailed despatch, from the principal manager, states that electri cal signs continue, but no words arc made out. It is conjectured that the Eastern end of the line has been taken up, for the purpose of making a stronger connection with the shore than the main part of the lino. It is believed such a line is required, at each end, to make sure thecable,whicb, in shallow water, wears more and is more disturbed than at greater depths.
