gTThe "Brunswicker" SUGGESTS thf

G-The "Brunswicker" suggests the
formation Of an Association by the papers
on the line Of the Telegraph from St. Louis
10 that place, with view to making an ar
rrangement for the regular reception of Tel
egraphic Dispatches. The suggestion is a
good one-one that should be acted on
promptly, to the end that we may have the
benefit Of it this winter, when the bad state
of the roads renders the mails so irregular.
The line from here to Boonville is in work.
ing order, and in the hands of men that will
keep so. All we want is an arrangement
with the line on the other side of the river,
and responsible man to make up the re-
ports. We have every reason to believe
that satisfactory arrangement can be made
with Mr.. VEIroH, and there is nothing to
prevent an early consummaton of the sug-
gestiOn. We will join the Brunswick pa.
pers alone, if the others decline.
FWhile on the telegraph subject, we
embrace the occasion to return our thank
to Mr.. JOHNSON, the gentlemanly Operator
at this place, for repeated favors. The
lineis in good working order, and Mr.. ]. is
always on hand.

Report of the Commission on the Rail
Road Accident.

Our St. Louis exchanges contain the re-
port of the commission appointed 10 enquire
into the causes of the recent accident on the
Pacific Rail Road. The majority of the
commission think the bridge would not have
fallen, if the cars had been going at slow
er speed. Mr.. Kayser made minority
report, and is of opinion the bridge was
not strong enough to bear the weight, at any
rate of speed.
An undue anxiety to open the road on
that day, it is very evident, caused the road
10 be completed in too great haste, and hence
the disaster. The bridge was a temporary
concern, completed on>the morning of the
day of the accident, but had been tested
with gravel trains. 80

Two SENATORS Efforts are being made
at Jefferson to elect two Senators, one TO fill
the vacancy now existing, and the other in
place of Mr.. Geyer, whose term expires in
March, 1857. We do not know where the
authority comes from TO elect TO the seal
Mr.. Geyer holds, but presume those who
are managing the subject, find nothing t.

Democratic Platforms.

Both wings of the democracy have sent
forth their platforms, from Jefferson City,
There is nothing new in them, save their
opposition to the American Party, and in this,
the Benton wing went little further than
the antics. The latter were hampered, be-
cause most Of their leaders had been mem
bers, and some are doubtless yet members.
Their denunciations were softer, on this
account. The Benton men, however, went
the entire figure, dar@- lantern, MD might
conclave and all, and washed their hands
Of the organization in toto. Members of
both parties feel easier, no doubt and we
suppose the American Party will survive,
notwithstanding the denunciations of the
wire-puliers. 1t is poor place for such.

CHINESE HEMp.- A few weeks since we
published an article on the subject of Chi.
nese Hemp, which excited good deal Of
remark among hemp growers. This hemE
grows taller than ours, thus giving more
lint 10 the acre, and will grow on much
poorer land than our hemp wiIl-two very
important considerations. Mr.. ALDRIDGE
of this place, has a small quantity of the
seed, and we are indebted to him for a spoon
full, which will be tested next year. The
seed sold in Kentucky at $48 per bushel
and the owner of few bushels refused
800 per bushel for it. Next year vii
give enough seed to make fair test of the
growth OF the article in our climate and soil
and if it turns out anything like as well as
it is said it will, revolution will take place
in the growth of this staple.

SENATORIAL ELEoTroN.-Our Jefferson
correspondence, and dispatch from the Re-
publican, contains all the news we have on
the Senatorial question. We wrote 10 our
correspondent, if anything was done on the
subject Monday or Tuesday, to advise us by
telegraph, and as we have received no in
formation, the presumption is nothing was
done. Saturday the House refused, by a
pretty decided vote to go into joint session,
and it may adhere 10 this decision 10 the
end.
1t seems TO be generally conceded that
Atchison is out Of the question---an an
nouncement which we are happy 10 make.
