WHAT IT SIGNIFIES.

Since the latest adyices assure us OF
the complete triumph Of the democracy
in California, il is interesting TO inquire
what the victory signifies beyond themere.
election of the democratic candidates
what it signifies, we mean, in respect to
the principles of the democratic party
This inquiry is answered by looking back
to the resolutions of the State conyen-
ton, and to the declarations Of the DEM
ocratic candidates in their addresses to
the people. The resolutions of the State
convention we have already published
They declare in the strongest possible
terms for adhesion to the Cincinnati plat
form, giving especial emphasis to the
doctrine of observation-disclosures by Congress
with slavery in State and Territory, or in
the District of Columbia" We have
seen the opening address of MILTON 3.
LATHAM, the democratic candidate for
Governor, after his nomination, in which
he used the following language:
ave stand by the principles of pop
ular sovereignty and non-interyention as
they were laid down by the Kansas-Ne-
braska bill of 1854. We stand by the
Cincinnati platform. We stand by the
administration of James Buchanan. And
above all these, we stand by the union
and integrity of the democratic party, as
we feel that upon the success of the prin-
ciples of our party depend the happiness
and prosperity of our beloved and CON-
mon country"
We now see what the triumph in Cal
ifornia signifies. And it is an overwhelm-
ing triumph. Mr.. LATHAM's majority is
some twenty thousand. In this connec-
ton it occurs TO us that Mr.. Horace Gree
ley's political pilgrimage to the Pacific
has not been fruitful 10 the opposition

Failure of DeLave to Garry Man
over Genesee Falls---Narrow
Escanc.
Escape.
ROCHESTER, Sept. 20.

Inasmuch rs this terrible calamity was
the result of witnessing that foolhardy
exhibition of rope walking, | will give n
description of DeLavc's feat of attempt
ing to cross the Genesee River carrying
a man on his back, at this place to-day.
M. DeLave left the east side of the
river at about o'clock, and walked upon
his rope with apparent ease to the oppo-
site shore lying down when midway the
rope, and performing sundry feats, such
as balancing upon one foot, &c. The
wind blow fresh, and at times he was en-
veloped in cloud of spray, so as to be
lost from sight. The rope was suspend
cd directly over the abyss below the fall,
so that the spray had a tendency to wet
the rope and render it slippery, fact
which M. DeLave learned by experience
when he venturcd to cross with man
upon his back
After partaking of refreshments, and
resting awhile, he started from the oppo-
site shore with man upon his shoulders,
in the person of sailor weighing about
14O pounds, which, with his balancing
pole weighing 80 pounds, was more than
the little Frenchman could stand up I'M
der. 1t was feared when he first stepped
upon the rope that he could not cross it.
He made his way carefully nearly half
across, but when over the yawning chasm
and nearly enveloped in spray, his feet
slipped, and for moment they wcrc sup
rosed lost. Down, down, they went, the
sailor clinging with both hands around
DeLave's waist; but DeLave catches the
rope with his arm, and they hang thus
suspended nearly 100 feet above the
foaming waters beneath. Dropping his
balancing pole, DeLave seized his fellow
traveller by the clothes upon his back, and
threw him with one hand upon one Of
the guy ropes, which fortunately they
were near, and then climbed up himself
DeLave in doing this act Of placing his
companion in comparative safety and then
mounting the rope himself, showed Won
derful GOODNESS and nerve, and exhibited
almost superhuman strength.
AS they fell, the impulsive crowd, with
one accord, rushed nearer the river banks.
Some few ladies tainted; and for an in
slant all was still. But when they reach
ed their places upon the rope, cEeer after
cheer rent the air After resting while,
they made their way "hand over hand"
to shore 1.-THE sailor showed himself quite
at home in this branch of the perform
ancc) glad and lucky 10 gain terra f11,o.
asked them how they felt rs they came
off the rope-to which the sailor replied,
al felt rs though / would like something
to take;" and no doubt he did. So end
cd the last act Of ropc-walking, and it is
TO be hoped chat il will not agnin be re-
peated.
