are in TIE county, and, in his next paper, 10 "sub

Memphis Convention.

The Pacific Railroad Convention which assem-
bled at Memphis on the 29d, adjourned on the Both
ult sine die, having refused to assemble again with
the ST. Louis delegates in Convention at Phila-
delphia In April next. The resolutions adopted,
express the opinion of the Contention that it is the
duty of the General Government to provide at an
early period for the construction of national rail
road from the Mississippi river to the Pacific Ocean,
that 1t is the duty OF the Government TO constitute
corps OF engineers, to make explorations and sur

as proper for the line of the road that in n,akinc

three parties, with opposing views, in tie Conven.

proper, commanding the support of those delegates

from Louisiana, who used every exerlion to obtain
recommendation Of the project of railroad across
the isthmus of Tehuantepec, as preliminary to the

OUTRAGE IN SPEECH.-We have often felt min
ged regret and disgust the language employed by
certain disclaimers at public meetings who profess
the Democratic faith, and we have been equally

could be found who would listen TO applaud it, At
the recent ratification meeting at Iammany Hall

FEARFUL CONDITION OF InELAsp-The Lon

FEARFUL 'coNDirIoN OF IRELANp.-The Lon
don Times thus describes the political and social
condition Of the ''sisier kingdom -
The main symptom Of her present state Is the
utter anagonsiu of ranks and classes. The discord
which first existed between Papist and Protestant,
or Orangenian and Ribandman, has now become
the discord between landlord and tenant between
The poor ahd The rich,-between those who have
and those who have not. There is now in pro.
gress war, determined. obstinate, and not nntre-
?uen'ly sSngulnary between property and want.
Kent is no longer evaded, bat pillaged by the ten
ant. All the securities which the law has provi-
ded Tor its payment have become a nullhy and a
mockcry. Armed ard multitudinous force van
cuisines the law, and secret deliberations give ad
ditonal support To force.
Where there mot detachment of soldiers ready
to assist in the collection of rent the maraudinu
tenants triumph and the landlord is pIundered with
out redress. Already blood has been shed in a vain
attemptto vndicate the rights ofproperty, and while
we write most probably fresh outrage has been
followed Icy fresh carnage A few weeks more,
such as the last SIX have been in some Of the Irish
counties, and the idea OF property will have been ex-
nrpa'ed the ties of civil society irreparab'y broken

aled therein.
This is not the part Of the crime or its con-
sequences. I, is no, only perpetrated by the iguo-
rant and the uneducated, but it is tolerated. encour-
aged and defended by men acknowledge and educa-
ton. IL is hailed by patriots the reirbutive war
oppressed against the oppressor the injured
and plundered serf against his donineerng and ex-
tortlonate master. In The remembrance of old
wrongs and Old neglect are buried The suggestions of
conscience and the dictates of law
! Some landlords were cruel, and others indiffer-
ent; therefore all landlords should be robbed such
is the logic with which Irish patriotism addresses
the most inflammable minds in Europe. The les
son is not lost. The spark falls the gunpowder,
as ii was meant that i; should. While the men of
learned eased write and advise, the men ofland are
beggaTed, and with them all whose subsistence de-
ponds upon the puveyance of elegant Injuries or

e3' AT convention Of publishers of newspapers,
recently held in Vermont, the following resolution
was adopted:
"ResolUed, That as representatives of the Press

Dlnatured personalities in editorial intercourse that
we discern and rejoice, in gradual improvement
IN this respect ard that we Will endeavor to further
that improvement by observing strictly in our edi-

At similar convention at the West resolution
of the character of the foregoing has also been adop
ted. We heartily join with the Boston Transcript
in the hope that the time will come when the A
mercan press generally will be governed by the
spirit of this resolution. Nothing is more disgust
