Old Liners screening Down.

The Old Liners are very much troubled at
the idea of americans supporting the Peoples
ticket. They have taken a sudden interest in
the feelings and opinions of the Americans Of
this portion of the State, in view Of the fact,
that Old Lineism wants considerable more help
than it will probably receive to secure victory
at the next election, and it would have no OBJ
lection to receiving few American votes. Tho
Old Line party is nothing moro than IN Anti
American party. Its great motive of action
is to crush Americans. 1t has been using the
viles: weapons of political warfare to destroy
this opponent. General abuse, personal defa-
nation, the .vilest epithets and the most out
rageous SANDERS, have been hurled at the
American party by the orators and press OF
the Old Line party, week after week and
month after month-and now these Old Liners
are trusting and hoping that here and therean
American will disown the Peoples ticket and
vote Old Linesm and Nebraska. Such hopes
are vain, unless there be less Of manhood in
the veins of Americans than we had believed.
These Old Line chaps are a. cute set. They
are always opposed to fusion, most violently
so, so far fusion among other parties is
concerned. but they are ever ready to practice
a little of it among themselve They black
guarded the Wings for over quarter Of cen
fury, but are very DESTROYS of fus.ng with
Wings, at least so far as to ge' their votes
They have blackguarded the Americans even
worse, if that were possible, and now they are
astonished that some of the National Amer-
cans will not accept their proposals for (u-
sion. The fact is, Old Line Democracy IN In
diana was never worse scared than just at this
particular time. They recolect their defeat
in 1854, and they know the same causes are
very apt to produce the same results, ard
hence that they have another defeat to anncl-
pate in 1855.

The OH Oh arge Reviyel

The State Sentinel which from its position
being published at the Capital, and from the
reputation it inherited through the grace of
the able though unprincipled men who have
heretofore conducted it, is considered the
leading Old Line organ in the State, is very
considerably frightened at the demonstration
of the people right under its nose last week.
1t is as lively in its agitation as such concen-
tration of editorial stupidity can well be In
its exceeding fright, it dare not pull h the
correct proceedings of the Peoples Convention
nor give a correct report of any speech. 1t
misepresents every. portion of the Convention
to which it alludes. Like the Old Line press
in 1854, it is haunted by AN Abolition I'han-
tom. It sees black Abolition IN everything.
The whole object of its miSrepresentat ons S to
create the impression that everything connec-
ted with this Convention partook Of that hue
The Sentinel, under ADLER hands, tried this
same game in 1854 1t reTied the Repuhli-
can party as an Abolition party-it denounced
oil men as Abolitionists who opposed the Old
Line Nebraska ticket. Yet the Abolition par
ty succeeded by majority OF over l5,CNO-
This should have taught the Democracy a les
con. II should at least have convinced them
that the application of very objectionable
epithet to their opposition, could in no possible
manner infict injury to the one side nor Sc
cure success for the other. This cry of Abo-
lition only frightens weak souls. Thank
Heaven the naep of Indiana dare do their duty
right in the face of this cry. There is nc
Northern State in the Union less tinctured
with Abolitonism than Indiana. Men think
and act for themselves here, but they respect
the rights ofothe while they maintain theil
own. Americans and Republicans are Opposed
to the Nebraska iniquity, and boldly speak
out their own opinions. But we trust this
does not hold them amenable to the charge Q

DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT THE LONDON DOCKS
ON the 9th ult., about 2 ocloek, q most
melancholy and fatal accident occurred at the
above docks, in No. 10 warehouse, under tho
following painful circumstances:
1t ap,)e that about o'clock two young
women paid visit to brother of one of them
who is clerk in the establishment. for the
purpose of being shown over some Of the
buildings to witness the working of machine
known as the hydraulic lift," and other con-
trivances to supeiSede mental lator. While
the brother was engaged in another part of the
warehouse, after cautionn g them as TO the
danger ATTENDING the slightest carelessneSs on
their part, they inadvertantIy got too near the
machine (hydrauiie) (which travels up and down
to the various compartments of the warehouse;
hold ny their heads over the hole, and looking
down, believing the machine not then to be at
work, the before named instrument suddenly
and instantaneously came down, and in Il mo-
ment severed both their heads from their
bo1ies, the heads falling to the bottom o. the
building with loud crash. The brothers

The next morning thirty-one bodies had

The next morning thirty-one bodies had
been collected thirteen at the depot, and 9th
ers in various places. They presented fright
FIJI appearance, being gashed and mangled m
an inconceivably harbarous manner. Skulls
were cloven, leaving the brain exposed; jaws
were broken; noses were cat of. II these
poor victims had fallen in any afffay with &c :
tual savages, their Rlutiliated remains would
have been less rcpufsivc. There.fs1so reason
to doubt the report prevalent at Panama the
next morning, when the passengers by the
Empire City lert, that these thirty one mangied
bodies were .less that one-half of the victims
who thus miserably persisted
Thus far our informant That the whole
affair was premeditated on the part of the ma
tives, the proof is too evident 1t had been
known to the agents of the Railroad company
for some time, that much IL feeling has pre-
vailed since the opening of the railroad, which
has injured the commerce OF the place, put an
end to the hiring eff mules for the crossing OF
the 1sthmus, and otherwise annoyed the IN
habitants Of the city. Hints and half warn
ings have not been spared, that Whenever al
opportunity occurred. payment for these loss
es would be taken out in the blood OF Amer
leans.
It is anticipated that the tc0rst is get TO cane.
The next party of Americans reaching Pana-
ma either from the Atlantic side or from San
Francisco, will, lit is too likely, find tho pas
sionate feelings of these savascs of the 18TH

they are their savage dispositions VIII be eS-
cited by the blood they have tasted. Return
ing talifornianS, and those projecting visit to
the golden region, will DO well to bear this in
mind. We shall expect to hear Of further
troubles. Such, at least, was the opinion Of
all those who were concerned in the late az
fray, with whom we couversed yesterday.
