Union Of the New York Democracy.

The union Of the Democracy of the EN-.
pires State seems to be in fair way o.
be Ing effected. The State Central Cora.
mit,ees of both sections have agreed to rec.
ommend the appointment of one delegate
from each organization, to meet at Rome'
on the 10th cf August next, for consnta-
iion, and to devise the means Of union, DC.
The leading men Of both sections Of the
party in New York city have issued an
address to the Democracy Of the State, ad'
vising the holding Of Union Convention.
In reg: ri to principles they say:
"We are agreed in our hostility to the
State and naiional administrations we are
agreed in opposition to national bank,
high protective tariff, wastelul system Of
internal improvements by, the general OF
State governments, corporate monorol;es,
and ,he piunder they effect. We are a.
greed in the support OF an independent
treasury, tariff Tor revenue, q sound sys'
TEN of State finances, and the reforms Sc
cured BY our new constitution. We are
opposed 10 the extension Of slavery. and
desire TO see it ARRESTED by all lawful and
constitutional means, while we rspudiate
any attemp, TO interfere with IT in those
States in which it now exists"

The Presidential T'ow.-We under
stand, says the last Philadelphia News, that
the President will leave Washington on his
tour to the North, about the middle of Au-
gust. He will proceed from Baltimore to
York, and from thence visit Lancaster, Har-
risburg, Chambersburgh, and the Bedfol d
Springs, HolEdaysburg and Pittsburgh.
He will then pass through Ohio to Cleve-
land, where he will embark for Buffalo, and
will be at the New York State Agricultural
Fair at Syracuse on the 10th. From AL
bany he will proceed east to Boston, and ai-
ter visiting the capitals of New Hampshire
and Maine, will return south via Provi-
dence, New York and this city, his purpose
being to reach Washington about the close
of September.
If Gen. Taylor passes through Ohio, he
will of course visit Ravenna. 1t is ex-
tensively known that ours "is a thriving
pleasant village and is noted for the manu-
facture of carriages" Ii old Zack is made
acquainted with this fact, and wants good
carriage for himself and old Whitley to ride
in, we are sure he will not fail to come.

The Cheese Trade.

The price paid for cheese this year in
our market, is little less than was paid
las, year, or for some years previous. The
cause Of this falling off in price is not gen.
orally understood by dairymen. The rea-
son is furnished in the following extract
from Circular letter, Of fSamuel Perry, OF
New York City, one of the largest cheese
dealers in the United States:
"In reply to the many enquiries addressed to
me relative to the prospect of Cheese Tor the
coming year, cannot say, that regard 1t as ia-
vorable unless at low prices-trom the best IN
formation can get, the production both IN this
country and England will be very large, far ex.
ceeding any former year-consequently IL must
be evident to all, that prices must go to punt
that will justify exporting all our surplus-and
the question presents itself, "What IS that
p.iat?' certainly cannot undertake to deter
mine it, but will giveyou the views Of our En-
lish correspondents and shippers, together with
my own, and leave you to draw your own sonclu-
sion. First, they say, prices were too high last
season, and the result disastrous to all shippers
which is fact beyond Ill question-second,t they
say, with the great increase, both in England
and this country, and with all other kinds oi
food lOW IL Will DC lmpOsSlole 10 sustain iasI Sea
sons pr,ees-inally, they say to all their cores
pondents, that it will be impossible to realize sat
isfactory results from shipments of Cheese at a
cost of over 5to cts. here, for the very best.
am free to confess these prices seem very low,
fear greatly below the ideus of the farmers, at
the same time they should bear In mind, that fol
the past two or three years they have realized
high prices at the expense Of the deaters, wht
have generally lost money-ccnsequently it il
for the interest of ALL that prices should not star
so high as to cause an accumulation of stock, OF
a reaction in price. I we'll remember that il
1914 we sold our best Herkimer County dairies
for shipment, at to 81 cts; yet at those low
prices heavy losses were sustained by the ship
pers--owing, in q measure to the fact, that ou1
Cheese were not so we'll understood or appreei
ated at that time. merely mention the fact
that low prices have heretofore ruled in England
and are likely to again"

CinCinHati-Sanitary.

The Board of Health of Cincinnati, on
motion of Mr.. Fletcher, have recommend
ed 10 the City Council to ''prohlbit by or
dinance, the sale at any of the public mar
ke,-houses or other places within the city:
limits, until the cholera shall have ceased
to exist as an epidemic, the following veg
etobles and fruits, TO wit:
Green Corn, Cucumbers,
Cabbage, Turnips,
Cauliaowers, Parsnips,
Green Peas or Beans, Lettuce,
Rhubarb or Pie Plant, Radishes,
Green apples or pears.'
The recommendation is just as salutary
for other places as for Cincinnati; and we
do not know that it is absolutely necessary
to delay action on the subject until cholera
shall have made its appearance as an epi.
demic.

From the Ohio Patriot.
MIR. Polk, the Duck River Colonel His
tory fOreSha dOWiDg itself.

Already we have concessions from the
whig presses which family foreshndow the
exalted position which the lamen,ed Polk
will occupy on the page of history. Those
who once represented him as fifth rate
country taaoyer," rare now exhibiting will.
ingness to- do him partial justice. He who
was once derided as the ''Duck riuer Colo
nsl,' is no longer an object of ridcule, bu,
the confession Is frankly made that she
has left fame and name behind him of
which the Republic may never be asham-
ed" and that posterity will look back up
on his administration Us abounding in good,
great and glorious Deeds" These are no
unmeaning acknowledgements, and they
should operate rs perpetual warning to
the Democracy never 10 give heed to the
ISLANDERS and defamation heaped on their
candidates previous to an election. Here
is the language of the "National Whig,"
printed at Washington City, in closing its
notice Of the death of President Polk:
"We are too near the events of the Mex
lean war, to do him full justice for his par.
licipation in that event. 1t is we'll known
that he was war man, and though we
did not agree with the policy, which bro'l
or the war and which closed it, we believe
that the time will come, when the CONDUCT
OF THAT WAR, with all its imperfections
aoiU be regarded as one Of the most brill
liant achievements Of any age. But bury
ing in the same grave with his dead bod y
all the Shortcomings Of his public life,-
has private life soas mnesceptionabls,-
HE HAS LEFT A FAME AND NAME BEHINI
HIM OF WHICH THE REPUBLIC MAY NEvEI
BE ASHAMED He had not won the high re
nown of Clay or Webster, or a Mclean
or Van Buren,, or Woodbury., or Cass
in his legislative oareer,-he did not stane
head and shoulders above thousands o
his fellows in the public service, when he
was taken for the first executive office ir
the world; but he aOas preferred to the IL
lustrious Clay himself by the people, ana
he administered this great gorsrnnaen1
with A SKILL, A sTEADINEss, A BoLDNEss
AND A FEARLEsNEss that astounded even
his friends, and alarmed the friends Of con
situtional liberty itself, by his excesses
But, burying. as we have said, all his ex.
cesses III the oblivion Of the past, PosTERI
TY WILL LOOK BACK UPON HIS ADMINisTRA
TON AS ABoUNDING IN GOOD, GREAT AMI
GLoKlous DEEDS This justice to his &C
tons however.sis one of tina. sort tha
comes not, while the prejudicss of the ex
isting generation prevail. 1t will come on

dav shall be mouldering in the same grav'

The LATE Ex.PRAsIDENr .PoLk.-A

ing OF MIR. Polk says:
He predicted his ow2 elevation to the
Presidency before the nccessions Of MIR.
Van Buren,, and upon his nomination in
1914, by the Baltimore convention, he fell.
and declared his entire confidence, in the
successful result; and even Mr. Clay. his
competitor, with his keen sagacily, receiy.
ed the intelligence of James K. Polk's nom.
inntion with the emphatic and despairipe
declaration OF ''bsat again"
Mr.. Polk also predicted the Ultimate &c.
cesslon Of Mr.. Benton to the Presidency,
for one term; and the course of events az.
pears now TO encourage the opinion. He
did not, however, expect to close his own
mortal, with his political career. He had
made preparations for long and peaceful,
and comfortable retirement. He had
bought and fitted up for residence large
and commodious mansion.
He had arranged, also, to visit Europs
next fall,in company with Mrs. Polk. He
was at ease in his pecuniary condition "a nd
amply able to indulge himself in re,iremen.
with life Of dignity and leisure, after the
anxieties attendant upon an official career

During debate, Gen. Cavignac made
most important speech, which may be con.

while it desires peace is preparing for war,
which, while il respects order insists on
progress.
