The County of Allegheny, Pa, and its two lead

barked deeply in Railroad enterprises, BY which
the value of their citizens property has doubtless
been sisnally enhanced, though the Railroads have
rot vet proved remune -at;ve and of course heavy
taxation for the pa!men. of interest on County and
City Bonds has been inevitable. We notice with
concern that the Democratic County Convention,
which met at Pittsburgh on the 10Th,
Resolred, The tax means that butte alone which
every member of the Commonwealth agrees to pay 70

Government and that the taxing power should not De

The second of the above resolves was ably

what il just as between two parties who cannot
agree TO settle their accounts, or we must revert

III. 1t is sheer folly, it is insne babble, TO talk
of the lender 40 useless drone, and money as pro-
ducing nothing. Money is but token; what is
really lent ia food, seed teams horses, lands, &c.
1t is great convenience to have the product, say
Of two hundred days work. in such shape that it
may become house rent, yoke Of oxen, thirty bar

and COW, or anything el.e of like value, at the
holders wish. A check which did not cost
penny may stand for Ten thousand dollars, and be
perfectly good for that amount. The value is not
in the check considered as thing by itself, bu. in
the goods and chattels which it honestly represents
and commands. Capitali, the unconsumed product
Of past labor; Interest is the natural increase Of
that product, put into shape to increase. If the
net product Of a hundred cattle turned loose in

robber. If you don't think SO, be careful not to
incur debt, and he eat rob you.
The naked truth is, that it is idle and unjust to
blame any one cla,s or calling for the evils now felt
We consider excessive Importation one immediate
cause of our troubles but the Importers are no
more bl,ueworthy than the pioneers Of Minnesota
or the farmers Of Illinois who have store.bils run
ming on, or would have if they could. Every one
in debt is responsible for his share of the present
embarrassment. Let US not stop to quarrel and
recriminate as to how We got into trouble, but all
put our shoulders to the wheel and try to work out
To this end, let every debtor sell something if he
can, and reduce his Indebtedness and let US all
resolve to owe less next New Years than we do at
present. If We can only get out of debt and keep
out, questions concerning Interest and the legal
collection of Debts will have less practical impor-
lance for US than they now have.

ENIVERSALIST STATE CONTENTION
rousspondence Of The N. Y. Tribune.

CASros, st. Lawrence Co., Aug. q, 1857.
The Cniversalist State Convention has been in ses-
sion this place for the last three days. The preach
ing has been under large tent in the public square,
although the churches Of the Baptists and MethodSts
were generously tenderedto the Convention for it's USE
in addition 70 the church owned by the Universasts.
They have all been used to extent for the various
meetings connected with the Convention.
Beside the religious services, meetings of the Coun-
Gil of the Education Society, Of the Trustees OF the
Theological School, and of the stockholders in the
Book ard Paper establishment, have also been held
during the week. The occasional sermon was by the
Rev L. W. RkYNoLDs, OF Buffalo Those who had
read his published works, and those who heard his
Report on Reforms at the last annual Convention,
pected al able and eloquent sermon. They were not
disappointed. We noticed in the audience Preston
King, Judge Galbraith Of Pa the Rev. I. j. Sawyer
Of New-York, the Rev. Abel G. Thomas Of Philadel-
pbia, and others from abroad. They all united in pro-
nouncing the sermon worthy and well.tined produc-
ton 1t will be published by order of the Convention.
The business meetings Of the Council related to the
Book and Paper Establishment, the Theological
School, the Clinton Institute, the Harsen Relief Fund,
and various other UNCONVENTIONAL matters
All these interests appear to be in Ourshing
dtion except the Institute at Clinton, which is
barrassed with debt. Measures were recommended
b. the Council for its immediate and permanent re-
lief. The Relief Fund, founded BY legacy Of 5000
from Col Hsrsen of your city, has Increased to about
$4,000, chiefly by additions Of interest. The udi-
gent widows OF elergymep, and sick and disabled
clergymen in the denomination so few that little

raised on Sunday Schools Reforms, Discipline, &c.
