THE GREAT AGONY is OVER. We learn
that the Republican Convention on Tues
day last. at Nelsonville. nominated VAN
Worries. of Athens, as candidate to repre-.
sen! the 18th Congressional District.
Mr.. Van Worries we believe to be an ex
cellent man and one that will do honor to
the cause, ant cr,dit to his district il cleo
ted. but he was not our first choice. Mr..
Bolland is mau Of more age, experience
and power than any man before the Con-
vention, fact we believe, not questions
ed by any man. But he happened to have
been suggested by us as suitable man,
who could carry the Americans and old
sliffnecked Wings, together with large
number OF the Douglas Democrats, this
was sufficient for Beatty, Shaw q Co., to
take the field against him. for the double
purpose of keeping the county open ior
the nomination Of favorite two years
hence, and venting theit spleen against US
and the American pRrty generally, they
accordingly circulated every specie O
Ifalsehood both against ourselves and Mr.
Borl md. determined to goit alone and
either rule or ruin! .1..t.s ..t
We regret to have beenthe cause Of hav
ing Mr.. Borlsud slandered, as for oursel
it matters little; one thing we honestly be
; lieve and that's. Borland could have car
ried at least 1000 votes more than an.
other man before the Convention, there
r fore we preferred him. .5
! We shall continue to preach from ou
I old text:--that the Union, the Consiitu
ion Of the United States, and the right Q
| the majority to rule. form the basis Of ou
4 political faith, and that we are uneompris
: ingly opposed to fore gn dic,atiou. negr
8 equality, fraud and corruption. in whatev
q er form they may present themselves.

What our Imaginary Southern
Pacific Railroad Costs!

The Albany Journal says that it may not be
generally known that We are building Pacific
railroad 1t is rather an airy, unsubstantial
structure the rails being laid nowhere except
in the imagination but it has already cost US
great deal OF money. M - r..
The road was begun about four years ago.
AS our Government is . Government: which
legislates always for the south, and never for
the north, it was foregone conclusion that
the railroad must be southern railroad 1t
must connect with Charleston and Mobile,
instead Of New York or philadeiphia, and
must link the States which talk of forming a
Southern Confederacy to CALIFORNIA and the
Pacific coast. .......-.af 80. aE
We begun by; sending ont corps of army
officers to survey the Southern route The
first route they surveyed was route through
Texas. The second route they surveyed was
a route through Texas. The third route they
surveyed was route through Texas. And So
Oh to the end of the chapter-every one of the
dozen routes, with but one or two exceptions,
being q route through Texas. This Texas
engineering took out of the Treasury about
u, 100000. The printing of the survey cost
$3.50, 900; the Gadsden purchase consisting Of
sandy desert, agreeably diversified with rocks,
too barren Of vegetation for the most part to
1s'psast 4. go 1allssal faI the nIodera
sum OF S10, O00, agcn road

Model Administration.

When Mr.. buchanan went into Office
there we're more than 100000 in the
Treasury. In less than two years he has
spent not only every dollar of that amount
and Che revenues Of the Government, a.
mounting to about s60,0O0,000, but he
