We presume there are few so credulous as to believe that the prey/amain up-i. e. a desire to reduce the State debt, sad relieve the people from tax ation—is the true one; for when, In the history of this State, did the opponents of the Democratic party reek to lighten the barthene of taxation, or legislate for the pro. pie where their interests conflicted with those of a corpo ration like that into whose grasp the Maio Line has been isoniOgned? Never! The legislative history of the oppo. Dents of the Democratic party is the history of exelaeive grants to oorporations. And air it '.as been in the poet AO it is now—they seek to build up the Pennsylvania Central railroad, by giving it the monopoly of the carrying trade of the State, so that like the Chnsisen and Amboy inoni.poi ly of New Jersey, a ma/ control the politics of the com monwealth' A. evidenee of this let the reader eon well the revelations in the following extract from • letter from the Editor of the Milwaukee Wesemoos, to has paper. while the bill was before the Senate.

MIL Mark well the portion of the above we have italicised, and then reeelleet that the writer, in the lame letter, in a previous paragraph, etre it as his opinion that Geo. C• IRON' will prove the most formidable competitor for the Repekatean nomination for President in 1860, and when nominated, will be certain to carry Peansylvenia, mid you have the Key to the oonepirsey to defined the common. wealth out of the Main Line for the benefit of the Central Railroad Company. Geo. Cameron is a shrewd, keen, far teeing politician. lie *ants no rival in his own State in the Republican ranks. His saw plainly that Wilmot would be nominated for Governor, and that he would be that ri - yea if, by any passible chance, he should be elected. Renal that result must be prevented et all hazards. There wee net mesh prospects of it, it is true—but even the pos. 'sibility mast be guarded against. The sale of the Main Line at this time, outraging as it does the right,' of the people, and squandering their means upon • oorporation, was just the measure to accomplish it Will put through with railroad 'peed. Gen. Cameron saw that it would "ensure the vote of the State at the October election by 2z,000 majority" to the opponent of Wilmot, thus ef fectually killing him off for 1660, and leasing him sole heir apparent to the nomination for President at that time.— •nd in this coenartion, the realer will observe that the writer of the paragraph quoted, who spears to have re oeived his instruetions from Cameron himself, does not profess that any premise benefit to the Republican party will result from the sale of the Main Line to the Penn•yl •llXltarailrosu company—hat "In the Presidential canes,, of 1860," when Wilmot is dead and buried, he thinks t will be the Means of giving them the State." "The shrewest Republleans of the State," be continues, "con sider the sole worth 10,000 votes to their side." And here Is the secret of this wholesale State robbery—not to relieve the State of debt, but to ensure the State to Repablican• ism in 1860; not to relieve the people of taxation, but to add "10,0410 votes" to the Republican mimeo at the next Presidential election. The Boston Herald; a neutral paper, In referring in a complimentary manner to the present Postmaster General, says be has now performed the duties of his office f,,r a length of time sullicient to enable those familiar with the affairs of our postal department to 'judge whether he is likely to fulgU the high expectations which his friend. had formed in regard to his administration.
