The President Elect.

A correspondent Of the Boston Post,
speaking of the new administration, the i'm
portance Of the tlust TO be committed to
President Pierce, and the well grounded
confidence the people have in his patriotism
and ability, concludes with following re,
marks: a'
"The entire surroundings Of Gen Pierce
down to this hour are ~eminently favorable.
It would seem as if the excellent spirit Of
wisdom and counsel dwelt within him.
Look at his position Immediately anterior to
his nomination, when he urged that hi.

Cd, Resolved, That we adhere TO the doc

bled, by the Resolutions following, to wit:
RESOLVED, That in the New Constitution
We recognise as the principles cardinal in
the Democratic faith.
"The election of all officers by the people.
"The limitation Of State Indebtedness,
and a provision for the payment Of the debt
which exists;
equal taxation; compelling the proper
ty of tle rich, invested in stocks, ~ bear a
proportion of the public burthen, by contrib
uting to the taxes Of the State.
"The restraint of the legislative power,
continuing it to the legitimate subjects Of
general legislation; and the growing glary
~ofrepeal, wich SECURES the people, sovereign
always, from ever becoming slaves to any
law or charter passed by their servants.
Sd. Resotued, That the people Of Ohio. nov
as they always have done, look upon slave.

velopment of the spirit, and practical bene'
fits Of free institutions; and that entertain'

RESOLVED, That the Democracy of Ohio dc
at the same time fully recognize the doctrine

6th Of January Convention-0ul
.se aa h-7a Ticket.

A considerable portion of to-day's paper
IS occupied with the proceedings of the 9th
of January Convention. They viii be found
very interesting, Every thing passed of
quietly and tremendously, so says all of the
respectable wing journals of the State, Har-
rison county had two able representatives in
the Convention. Messrs, Lewton and Pep
pard, whose votes show that they were
obeying the will Of their constituents.
The ticket which was nominated and
which we place at the head of our columns
to-day, is a strong one, and one that will
give entire satisfaction throughout the State,
1t is a ticket that will be responded to imam
imously on the second Tuesday Of next o.
tober, by the unfinching democracy o.
Harrison county, The names of the men
that compose the ticket are all good and true
Democrats, and every way qualified to fill
the responsible stations for which they have
been chosen, Let the watchword along the
whole line be MEDILL, BLISS AND VIC.
TORY, and whiggery will get such a com.
plete defeat, that it will never be able tc
raise its sinking head again.
The Statesman in speaking Of the Con.
~vention and its proceedings, and the tickle
says: @ + ''@
The report of this Convention is fuller and
more accurate, we believe, that of any pc.
litical Convention heretofore held in The
State. Great credit is due Mr.. Boggs, the
principal Secretary, and his a. s~istanis, and
10 the President, for the assiduity with
which they have labored to present a com.
plete record Of the proceedings of this i'm
portant occasion.
The ticket nominated is to be seen at the
head of our par~r to-day. We have only
room to rcpqinn the Democracy of theil
duty, now that they have deliberately Sc
lected their candidates, in the long campaign
before US. We shall have frequent occasion
in that campaign, to. discuss the claims o
the ticket upon public confidence and sup
port. We need only to-day to express GU
satisfaction in view of the harmony witt
which the action Of the delegates was eharac
terized. All seemed animated by a desire
that the results of their doiags should b.
justly satisfactory to the people.
We need not refer specially to the history
Of the day, as recorded in the proceedings
1t is before our readers, and we leave then
to its perusal to-day, without time or room
for further comment.

RailrOad Celebration at Wheelinp

- W AOClllk
The railroad celebration at, Wheeling on
last Tuesday and Wednesday was a grand
affair. There must have been from ten TO
fifteen thousand strangers in the city on
those DAYS. Every thing was done in real
old Virginia style, and every citizen seemed
glad to welcome and entertain Strangers
Much praise is due to the committee of ar
rangements for the able and satisfactory
manner in which they performed their ardu-
GUS duties,
The following, from the Intelligencer of
that city, will give our readers some idea
how matters passed off in that place on the
opening of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
10 the Ohio River:
The train of cars which arrived Yesterday
morning at about two O'Clock, contained a.
bout 200 passengers, including the Govern
ors of Maryland and Virgins, members Of
both Legislatures, and various official and
distinguished p~ersonages. At about five
O'Clock the rear train arrived with some 600
more of the city's invited guests. They
were conducted to the M'Lure house, and
after being RECALLED with an excellant break,
fast retired to the comfortable quarters pro.
vided by Mr.. Carroll, which the exciting
journey had rendered so necessary.
At about noon yesterday, the PresidenI
and Directors of the Company, the Chic
Engineer, Benz. H. Latrobe, Esq, Governor
Johnson, of Virginia, Governor Lowe, q
Maryland, the members of the Legislature
and the great concourse of the invited
guests, were escorted to the Court House
where his Honor, Mayor Nelson and the
City Council were inwaiting, and where tht
ceremonies of a formal reception took place
After IA brilliant overture had been per
formed by Captain Hollands Band, of Bal
timore, his Honor, Mayor Nelson, addressed
to the distinguished President of the Com
pany, Thos. Swami, Rsq., bidding him ant
the gentleman he represented welcome il
the name and behalf of the citizens O
Wheeling. He rendered his hearty congrat
u~lations on the completion of the great work
rendered a deserved tribute to the skill AM
energy Of the President, the Directors, ant
engineers of the Company, and referred il
eloquent terms of the great social and na
tional blessings conferred by this and simila
triumphs of art.
Mr.. Swami responded in an appropriat
and eloquent manner, e~liciting enthusiast
cheers.
Il Governor Johnson was then introduced t
the audience and spoke a great deal in a fey
words in relation to the interesting topics c
tie occasion.
The addresses were concluded by on
from Gcyerner Lowe of Maryland, marke,
by great power AID beauty.
The Banquet at the Masonic Hall O.
Wednesday eycQing, was a sumptuoAs at
fair. wheEe aboAt 800 persons partook Of tn
dainties spread before them.

Upon the announcement Of the result Of

that Lester Bliss, Esq. Of Allen county, be
unanimously nominated.
Mr.. Bliss being called for, he appeared
and addressed the Convention as follows:

Cadiz.

rN $500 u. E =. . ..E.E El-.E.H &C.,.
Within the last twenty years Cadiz has
improved but little. Indeed we do not
think it.,presents any thing like SO neat an
appearance as it did twenty years ago. 1t
is true there are many fine, substantial
buildings, yet there are very many others
that are in a dilapidated condition, and need
repairing or new ones in their stead. Sew
eral small buildings Of this description are to
be found in the most business part Of the
town. The ground they occupy is valuable,
and it should be in the hands of those who
would improve it, properly. If substantial
buildings were erected in place Of these old
decayed frames it would add much to the
appearance of the town. At present it is
very difficult to obtain any thing like a com
Portable dwelling house at any price-there
is evidently a scarcity of buildings Of this de-
sfription, and we should think a few thous-
and dollars might be profitably invested in
the erection Of such buildings, the coming
summer, for rent. Family residences, not
exceeding in cost $1,000, would pay at least
ten per cent, and might be rented now with
out any difficulty, So, soon as the Railroad
is completed we shall have an accession to
our present population, if houses can be OBJ
tanned. Would it not be well enough fol
those who have spare capital to employ q
portion of it in the erection Of a few Cheap,
neat, substantial buildings for rent. By. do.
ing SO. you would afford employment to oul
mechanics--induc others, perhaps, to locate
amongst us-proyide residences for those
who cannot, now, obtain them, and at the
same time make a profitable and safe invest.
ment Of your surplus funds.-Repu6jcan.
1871 instant.
ESy- The above remarks of III rneighbor,
contains some excellent suggestions, which
we hope may be well considered. No one
would rejoice more than We to see Cadia
thrive and prosper; but unfortunately for the
place, nearly every mar in it that has mon.
ey to spare, has it invested in Bank stock,
either in this Branch, in the Wheeling Banks,
or in the Wooster Branch. They think thai
tits easier to get the dividends Of Bank stocL
than it is to get house rent, and therefore
they will not build. II you wish them t
