This was manifesty choker Tor the gentlemen
who bad Just nominated Judge DEMO; but they go.
through it as we'll as could be expected. The Con-
yeption clearly wanted to denouncs the acts in
Que ston as unconstitutional; bu. this their noni
nation of Judge DEMO rendered absurd. Thus
precluded from making an effective point, they
were compelled to rest on the false assertion that
tie City bills of last Winter were "enacted to pun
i.h the lion.bearted Democracy" when they
know perfectly we'll that half the prominent
Democrats of our City were active promoters OF
those acts-some Ct them members of this very
Convention. Unless the public thieves around our
City Hall are the lion-hearted Democracy o.tais
EMPORIUM. then this resolve is radically false
The City bills Of last Winter were passed to re-
lieye the City in part from the despotsn oil FER
naudo Wood and the unmeasured corruption aud
rapacity Of bis subservient majority IN our CiIy
Councils-neither Of them in Office BY a minority
vote Of our citizens, but solely through the DIVISIONS
Of their opponents. The Wood faction were
minority when elevated to power, are minority
now. and vi be a minority when the People nex'
have a chance to pass Judgment upon them; and
should they clutch power again, it would be solely
through divisions among their adveriaries. Inc
Legislature simply reduced the llgotten and most
abused power Of this minority, aud our City is now
sayipg money and enjoying comparative COCA 0'ue'
IL consequence.

The virginia springs.

The time for the annual exodus Of the springs

thnroughfares leading to the watering places

there are more persons than.us at the differ
entwatering places Of Virginia at this season ct

One Of the principal reasons Of this is the di-
ninu,ion in the usual tide of travel 10 the sum

from the unequal and unjust arrangement oil

By common consent. tho mineral springs OF
Virginia rank superior, in point of medicinal

EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION OF PEARLS
Tho Paterson On. ID Guardian says that
Messrs John and Jacob Quackenbush, of that
city, who have been mixed up in the pearl hunt
from tho first, exhibited ON Saturday 81 pearls
the most perfect specimens of their recent exer
tons. They were all regularly graduated in
size for n necklace, and of beautiful tnts and
clearness. Besides these, they have recendy
found very large pearl, of the size of musket
ball, perfect, and probably worth $1,000. The
value of the necklace pearls would be about 81
500 when arranged for sale. This family have
found over $4,000 worth, and have realized prob
ably that amount, but the market value of the
pearls is very much more. they realized only
5000 for valued at $4,000 in New York.
They state that thore is hardly any in hunt
ing outside of Passaio and Bergen counties, as
elsewhere they meet with no success.

JACKSON RAILROAD CONNECTIONS EAST AND
NoRrH.--A recent letter from Mr.. Smedes Pres
ident of the Southern Road puts us in posse ssion
of fuller and more circumstantial information as
TO the progress of our great railroad connection
east and north, than has hitherto been at hand
Everywhere the work is being pushed forward
with the most gratifying speed and energy. This
road; our readers are already aware. has for
some time been in successful operation to Bran
don, and eastward the prospect now is, says Mr..
s., that everything will be ready for the cars
as far as Meridian, by the LIST Of july 1859.
From Meridian to the Alabama line. nineteen
miles, as also thence to Unontown, fifty two
miles, the works likewise in rapid progress
And from Unontown east to the Albania river
forty miles already in operation. leaving but
thirty miles of unfinished road to Montgomery
and that under charter. In all probability. then
within the space of less than two years, we of
New Orleans shall be able to traverse the whole
extent of the State of Mississippi and Alabama
eastward; the entire distance, indeed, between
the waters of our own noble river and those of
the Atlantic, without change of cars-time not
exceeding forty eight hours. Then adieu TO
boating up the Alabama.
! 1t is at Meridian, the same place mentioned
above that the Southern Road connects with the
Mobile and Ohio Road also with the North
east and Southeast Alabama Road. This last
runs by almost Ar air line thence direct to Chat
tanoogn, and when completed with the East
Tennessee and Virginia Roads, be the shortest
possible route to travel between this city aud all
points to the north. And we glad to learn as
we do, in addition, from Mr.. Smedes, that the
whole line is not only under contract but the
work thereon in actualprogress.-N o. Pic.
