Pittsburgh, Maysville and Gin
cinnati Railroad.

Notwithstanding the temporary panic in
money matters in the east, we see that en-
gineers are at work on the eastern portion
Of the Pittsburgh, Maysville and Cincin-
natl Railroad. Last week they were oper-
ating in the vicinity Of Cadiz. The farmers
and business men along the line, not feei-
ing the effects of the bursting of an over in.
tlated bubble or two in some of our eastern
cities, are determined to lay their shoulders
to the wheel, and be ready when the road
is located, to push it forward with all pos
sibe dispatch. This is right. No section
of country, that we know of, stands more
in need of an outlet, of this kind, for their
luxuriant crops, ,and other productions, than
do the people between Cambridge and Ca
diz. Let them remit no efforts to secure
this road and effect its early completion
From Cambridge as far west as McConnels-
vile, this road has been put under contract,
and under the superintendance of energetic
and experienced builders, it is believed,
that but short time will elapse. before. the
road will be constructed between the two
last mentioned places and as the Steuben-
vile and Idniana railroad will be compile
ted, duilng the coming winter, as far west
as Cadiz, the importance of energy and
promptitude in the work of forming juno
tion between Cambridge and Cadiz so soon
as the road is located, is obvious to the most
superficial Observer Guernsey Jefersoniun.

of our Election. The wings have the Ca

Fugitive Slaves in Canada.

Instances are frequently meeting our eyes
ofhardshlps endured by fugative slaves in
Canada, with which. according to the state
ments of the fugitives themselves, there is on
parallel while they were in a condition Of
servitude. For the benefit of the managers
of the "'under ground railroad" We publish
the following cese of the kind, the acconnt
Of which is taken from the Napanee { G. W.
Standard:
"There Is uegro residing in this place
upward of fifty years old, who ran away
from his master in Maryland last April, and
came through safe by the underground rail.
road. He says he would be glad to return
to his old master by the over ground road,
or even ON foot, IL be could. as he has expe.
ricenced more suffering during his stay Of
five months in Canada, than he has during
his whole life in slavery!''

Massachusetts Election.

A whig Edition East of us is anxious to
hear the result of the Massachus etts Elec'
ton. We believe that recent voting in tha
strong hold of Federalism indicates that the
Democracy have to make another strug-
gle berore they gets new constitution and
a Democratic Governor. We believe that
Massachusetts, was one of the States that vo-
ted for Scott; and she is not yet entirely
ashamed of it.
The new Constitution is defeated by some
5000 majority. The whig candidate for
Governor is elected-Legislature doubtful.
OF this resu the Boston Times thus talks.
The election yesterday resulted as Il
great many expected. The new constitu-
ton is rejected; and the enly reason we can
assign for this cata. .trophe Is, that the re-
yised constitution WAS NOT RADICAL
ENOUGH. This is admitted by all friends
of reform and progress. The work must,
therefore be begun again.
The Democrats of Massachusetts should
not despair at this defeat. Let them start
afresh, and with renewed vigor. The pres
ent is under the money inflence of State
street. The future belongs to the people.
Let them rightly use it.
The adopted citizens generally voted a
gainst the new Constitution in the CITY,
They called it Coalition--Free Soilers--

in this city on Saturday evening. We learn
that they have been Surveying the route

that the company had determined to pass

The Money Market.

The gratifying intelligence comes to US
that the stringency in the money market
that has latterly prevailed in the Atlantic
cities is relaxing, and the worst is counted
on as being over. Rates of exchange and
interest are falling; imports ale decreasing,
and exports OF cotton and produce are in
creasing, banks are In condition, in New
York, to relive the commercial community,
and are discountng with more freedom
The advices from London are that, "Money
is abundant at the existing rate of 5 per cent,
and at present there are no signs of an in
creased demand. About E4OO, 900 in gold
has Just been received from Australia, and
this remittance will prove opportune to
counteract the effects of the continental ex-
changes" ......

The President and the Press.

The Ohio Statesman says: The New
lOrk Herald has commenced waging war
against President Pierce's Administration.
Some of its tactics ae neither new nor hon
,.-I /; is noy CRYING out that the Cabinet
IS divided, that Gushing is jealous Of Marcy
and wants TO be Premier. AL sham There
are two ways Of accounting for this savage,
reckless opposition Of the Herald:
FRsr, Bennett, its notorious editor pre-
sumed to be a candidate for the French Mis-.
sion, and the President. without having ter
ror Of the Herald before his eyes, refused to
disgrace the country and suIly his admins
tralion BY the appointments course which
every man who has ever heard Of Bennett
will approve.
SECONDLY, The Administration is indie.
pendent and incorruptible. The black mail
policy Of the Herald never could agree with
the pure principles and noble action which
characterize the President and his Cabinet.
You might as well expect Satan to assist in
the propagation Ofrehgion, as to expect the
New York Herald 10 support the Admins
tration. Ii treachery, baseuess, and reck.
less disregard of every honorable motive
constitute formidable opposition to the
Administration, then these attributes, incar,
nate in Bennett of the Herald, are arayed
against tie President, and have placed The
Administration in jeopardy. But. the sound
