LOCAL MATTERS.

Dsmocrating Mstiing.-The association of the
Democratic party of Richmond adheripg TO
Breckinridge and Lane, held a meeting at their
headquar ers st the Metropolitan Hall, on
Wednesday night last. o. Jennings WisY
Esq, addressed the crowded audience la a
| speech OF more than two hours duration, in
the course of which he reviewed with much
eiearness and ability the state of parIies and
the political issues of the present canvass. He
gave an inside story OF the presen dissensio
In the Democratic ranks, going 10 show that
the Breckinridge wing were not res pom 81 BILE fsr
the division, but that ii had been forced upon
them by the trickery and dupiicity of the Al
many Regency in the interest of Douglas. Mr.
w. reviewed the record of J John Bell and mad a
| some points which were well received by the
Democracy. He then defended the doctrine CT
intervention for protection,' and argued to
show that 1T bad always been asserted by the
Democracy OF Virginia, and that it had been
recognized, ON former occasions, by MIR. Dou-
glas himself.
In conslusion Mr. Wise made an earnest ap-
peal to the Democracy to unite on Breckin-
ridge, declaring that every vote given for Dou-
glas in Virginia, would be a vote for John
Bell.
Mr.. Wise was listened 70 with mar ked a item
ton by his political friends, and showed that
he was well posted for the work he had UNDER
taken. His remarks were logical and address ed
to the reason of his audience, rather than 10
their preludices and passions.

1t is needless to add single word-the
figures speak for themselves. To the share
holders the American railways are twice as
valuable as the English, although American
lines do not call for such vast outlays OF
money as ours have done, are not nearly so
heavy in the working expenses, nor so dear
for the traveller.

We have been favored with small specimen of
coal from the neghborhood Of Cairo station. Riteh

Railroad, which is OF peculiar quality. 1t has
been tested by various chemists. and has been
found to be as it were chrystalized mineral oil,
being without qualification and rec from any for
eign substance. The test has shown that it will
yield one hundred and sixty-fye gallons Of crude
oil to the ton. After one refining process eighty
two per cent. OF refined oil obtained; after
second dislation, sixty per cent, of tho whole
amount obtained in pure oil, and thirty per
cent. of lubricating oil and parafne. By taking
portion of the coal and laying it on hot stove or
shovel. its extraordinary quality is obvious. 1t

is not more than fonr feet wide, though unfath-

traced in its comb like shape from both
