Iron SpREs.-"An iron spire is about to be erect
ed on a church in Pittsburg. This will be the first
construction of the kind in the United States, and
it is fitting that it should be put up in TIE Iron
City, This church (St. Philomena's Catholic) has
now a brick tower one hundred feet high, which is
to be carried up sixtyfye feet higher, and upon it
will be erected beautiful cast iron spire, eighty
five feet high, exclusive of the cross that will crown
the apex. The style is to be perforated Gothic of
the middle ages. 1t will cost about $4,000 There
are now, it is stated, but two church spires in the
world that are made of iron, viz: at Vienna and
Franktort-on -the-Main "-Aany Papers.
We clip the above from exchange paper for the
purpose of correcting it. The citizens of Pittsburg
are mistaken in supposing that the cities of Vienna
and Frankforton-the Main, are the only ones which
possess churches with iron spires. The sprc of ST.
Alphonsus' Church of this city is of iron, 95 feet
high, Independent of the cross, which adds lG feet
to its altitude. The style of the spre is pointed
Gothic, and it is of the most beautiful ones in
this country. 1t was designed by r. Carey Long,
ESQ., architect, and he having died before its cree
ton, Louis L. Long, Esq, carried out the design.

ToKLAs AGAINST Us-We wish to inform
our readers that, owing to the lateness of
the hour on Saturday evening at which we
received the primary election returns, we
failed to give the particulars of the great
Toklas contest in the Third Ward. We also
made some other errors by reason of con-
ficting information furnished us. We make
the proper corrections elsewhere to-day
Toklas succeeded in getting 81 votes out OF
I3l cast in the Third Ward, at the Demo-
cratic primary election. Those who cast the
81 votes did so through ignorance of the
fact that Toklas was at the same time run
ming for delegate on the opposition ticket
Toklas must not allow his feelings to be hurt
by his overwhelming defeat His Admins
traton friends will doubtless take good care
of him His name ought to be the subject
OF the leaders of the Express for the next
two weeks That Toklas is with the Admin
istration, there can no longer be any doubt,
and the fact ought to be kept before the
People. Toklas ought not to run for dele.
gate, however, again on the Democratic
ticket, and if he does it again he must try
and get more than 81 votes out of l3I.

Candidates of the Democracv.

The proceedings of the Democratic City
Convention, which assembled last evening.
will be found in another column. 1t will be
seen that good men and true have been put
forward for the support of the Douglas De-
mocraey for the offices to be filled at the ap-
preaching City election. The hour is too late
for any EXTENDED comment, and we shall re-
serve further remarks for our next issue
Suffice it to say, now, that better ticket
could not have been selected, whatever per
sonal preferences may have been entertained.
As good men it is true were before the Con-
vention, but they and their friends are of
course satisfied with the action Of the ma
jority. If they are not, they are no true
friends of the great cause which they pre-
tend to advocate But, We believe they are
satisfied, and that they will show their devo-
ton to principle by cordially working with
the bravest of the party for the success of the
ticket, the whole ticket and nothing but the
ticket.

A MIGnTY TURN oUT-Seeing the Douglas
men around in such force, Saturday night,
after the close of the primary elections, the
poor terror-stricken Lecomptonites concluded
to scare up" a little enthusiasm, too. So
they turned out and with much clamor
drummed up recruits on D street and took
their line of march for the Express Office, for
the purpose Of giving three cheers to the
Express. Just before they arrived on the
ground-as we are authortatively informed
they numbered just eight most desolate and
forlorn looking individuals. Whether they
proceeded to give the three cheers or not,
we cannot say, but, if they did, it must have
sounded like the lonesome squeak of asthmatic
frogs in half dried mud puddle.
Daily national Democrat., 1859-03-01
Total. .............. 80,

According to the Express, the Lecompton-
ties polled, at their primary election, only
42l votes. They made every exerton to ex-
hibit their actual strength in the city, and un-
doubtedly succeeded Their leaders are ev-
identity chagrned at the poor showing made
after all their blowing, and well they may
be The Douglas Democracy were about on
Saturday evening, and if any opinion can be
formed by the enthusiasm exhibited by
them, the approaching election will be one
sided affair. The Lecomps cannot keep
their 42l together and it will take a great
many recruits and extensive importations
to swell their number to 500. The vote
polled will be at least 1900. If we are right
in this estimate, we have the city by 200
majority

LAMENrABLE SUIclDE-The steamer Gipsey
arrived about halfpast seven o'clock, yester-
day morning from below. bringing up the
bodies of Lucy r. Blaisdell, wife of Joseph
H. Blaisdell Ia ranchero on Old river near
G Georgiana Slough) and Lucy A. Koppes.--
The remains of both were inferred from the
boat to the City Cemetery, by True, under.
taker on Fourth street The latter died of
enteritis in the oath year of her age. Mrs
Blasdell died, on Friday, from the effects Of
poison, selfadmnistered. We are not ad
vised of the facts developed at the inquest,
but u derstand that she had recently evinced
symptoms of mental alteration, and partook
of strychnine which she bad mixed in pie.
An inquest was held on the body by Andrew
c. Davis, Justice of the Peace in and for
Georgiana township. We learn from the
record in the office of tie County Recorder
that she was married by Justice Davis to Mr..
Blaisdell, on the 3lst of December last, and
was then aged 10 years.-Sac. Union, Non

DEMOCRATIC srANDARD.-This new organ of
the Lecompton party, which is designed, we
believe to supercede the Morning Star, came
out Saturday morning. 1t is printed upon
the material of the defunct State Journal and
Statesman, and is edited by Chas T. Bolts,
late candidate for the District Judgeship Of
the SixthIJudicial District against Hon. ]. C.
McKune. 1t is expected to undertake the
task of competing with the Union. Judge
Bolts is man of ability, but all the ability
in the world will not build up Lecomptor
paper of any permanence at Sacramento. Al
least such is our opinion.

MAN SHor.-We learn from gentleman
from Timbuctoo, that man named Jones
was shot and probably mortally wounded at
that place, on Sunday evening 1t appears
that "sport" named Dobbins, familiarity
known as Red from his having red hair
was dealing monte in one of the gambling
saloons, when a dispute arose b tween him
and man who was " bucking" at the game
The latter appealed to Jones, who was stand

whereupon % Red" Immediately rose, drew
his revolver and shot Jones through, the ball
entering his side Red departed in hur
ry as soon as the deed was committed, and at
last accounts had not been apprehended.
