THE METROPOLIS IN ITs AUTUMN CLOTHES
we were luxuriating week ago, have been
replaced by rough northerly breezes, which
pay little respect to persons, and are positively
rude to the fair crinolinities, who are compelled
to abbreviate their Broadway promenades. Our
Southern visiters are forcibly reminded that
their winter gayeties are not far of, and that
they must lose no time in preparing for their
flight towards the tropics. BY steamer and
rail they are hurrying of, and soon they will
be missed altogether from our thoroughfares.
On the other hand, New Workers who have
been lingering in the country are admonished
compel them to remain out of town after the
first frost So the japonica world is getting
ready for the ball and party season, weddings
having already set in with an extraordinary
rush. The Broadway bazaars have exchanged
the Southern trade for that of home customers,
who t,rong the dry goods palaces from morn
Ing till night, expanding fabulous sums. The
most expensive silks, velvets and laces find
the readiest sales here, and the outfit of o
fashionable New York belle must be counted
by thousands. The same rule holds with jewery,
fancy goods, millinery, and the thousand articles
of feminine knicknackeries, as the fair republi-
cans are right royal in their equipments.
Our public amusements flourish bravely
notwithstanding the cold snap. The Opera has
nearly recovered from the mishaps which i'm
perilled the season, and once babe fair to post
pone the happy day when we shall be indepea-
dent of London and Paris in art matters, and
when the Opera in New York shall be acknow-
lodged as criterion by European connoisseurs.
Perhaps we may settle the Italian question in
New York this season, provided the fashionable
world will back up Victor Emanuel Ullman
and Garibald Strakosch, who are endeavor-
ing to free the Opera from French and English
dictation, as their political compatriots are
striving to liberate the land Of Italy from for
eign rule.
Altogether, the metropolis is in good autumn
condition; trade continues good, Opera and
theatres full, weather bracing and the pros
poets for good winter season never brighter.

THE WASHINGTON DOUGLAS ORGAN VERSUS THE
WASHINGTON REPUBLICAN ORaANs.-The little
filibustering Douglas paper at Washington,
having thrown out broad hint of mob law in
reference 10 the two black republican abolition
organs Of the same city, one of them-the
National Nu-thus significantly replies:-
This ia not the first effort Of the kind which tho Douglas
organ has made against It's republican neighbors It s
doubtless, DESTROYS Of giving practical Illustration Of
"popuar sovereignty The destruction of this printing
establishment by Washington will be the worst
days work which the people Of this city have done In
many day.
This simply means that, in view Of the near
approach of Northern opposition House of
Representatives, 1t will be we'll for the regula-
tors Of Washington, while consulting upon the
cxpediency of destroying an abolition press or
two, to consider also the little items of their
city's bread and butter. This hint will proba-
bly, settle the question with the boys and with
the Douglas organ, and its peculiar plan of re-
moving rival or two for the Congress print
ing. They are a precious set, those beggarly
Washington organs, of all parties.

THE CnEyALIER FORNEY on THE HARPERs
FERRY ABOLITION EMEUTE.-The Chevalier For
ney "draws it very mild" in his editorial OBJ
servations on the late terrible abolition out
break at Harper's Ferry. He says athere are
many rumors that widespread conspiracy
existed but we are inclined to believe that its
importance was greatly magnided by the crazy
fancies Of Browns mind" and that while 1T
may be that Fred. Douglass and Gerrit Smith,
whose letters were found at his (Brown's) head
quarters, actively sympathized with him. at
is utterly impossible that sufficient number of
white persons were connected with the move
ment to render 1t, under any circumstances,
really formidable sgainst the strong array Of
force which was brought to bear against it at
the same key as that of the Chevalier Webb,
Greeley, the venerable Thurlow Weed and the
abolition poets Of the Evening Post upon this
subject. And the coincidence is easily explain
ed. The Chevalier Forney is expecting the re-
ward of the fat Office of Clerk of the House of
Representatives at Washington from the repub-
lican party, for his services to the republican
cause during the last two years. But he may
be disappointed. He may be unable to bring
up the half dozen anti-Lecompton recruits that
will be necessary to elect the republican Speak
er, and what then! Why, then, we may have
occasion to lament the follies and misfortunes
of poor Forney; and then, perhaps. we may
find him asking forgiveness and bone to pick
from his old friend and much abused beneft.c-
tor, Mr. Buchanan. Poor Forney!

THE CHARLESTON CONyENTION-THE Two.
THIRDS RULE IN NEW SHAPn.--Our readers
are aware that In all our Presidential Nomi-
mating Conventions each State is allowed only
the vote which she casts for Presidential cleo
tors. Thus, New York at Charleston will cast
IS votes, Delaware s, Virginia Is, and SO on,
without regard to the list Of delegates In each
case that may be present Indeed, according
TO the democratic precedents furnished by
South Carolina and Tennessee, one man, as the
delegate of State In the national party con-
vention, is as good as FIVE hundred or thou
sand men--yea, better, for the purposes Of o
unit than any other number whatever. But
the distinguishing requisition of the democratic
camp, in the matter Of Presidential nomina.
ton, lie the two-thirds rule. This hard test has
broken the bones Of a host of distinguished de-
mocratic aspirants, beginning with the "crush-
ing out' of Martin Van Buren, in 1874, at
Baltimore. But the time has now come when
some Of our Southern politicians find this two.
thirds rule insufficient for the crisis. Promi-
nent among these politicians Is Governor Wise,
of Virginia, who, through his confidential
organ. the Richmond EnQsarer, seems to be
driving al some such new rule for the Presiden-
tial democratic nomination majority of the
democratic States; or, in other words, a msjo-
riV of the Southern States. Such rule would
be apt to place the Albany Regency delegation
far on the left hand among the goats, and very
likely some such question will be raised as
Southern sine q,a non at Charleston. Let the
Regency prepare for a cold reception. Gov.
Wise "still lives"
