A DIsGUsTED Democrat says his party is
reduced to vulgar, brawling fractions, i'm
possible to be added together. But he must
concede to Mr.. Douglas great skill in divi-
ding the vulgar Acknowledgment Times.
A DISTINCTION WITH DIFFERENCE.-The
Herald says that the Northern politicians
see the germ of dissolution in the tendency
toward division in the late Convention
Where the Northerners see the germ, the
Southerners only see seed Vanity FGir.
gsg~ None of the parties now in the field
propose to dissolve the Union, happen what
may. Even the Nulliiers are subdued, and
comfort themselves with the prospect of re-
suming power in 1864.
Mr.. BRECKINRIDGE, it is said, intends visit
ing California, where he will spend his time
during the heat of the Presidential canvass,
while Mr.. Douglas announced in Phiadel-
phia that he should make no speeches be-
tween now and the election.
ONLY two of the eight Democratic papers
in Connecticut support the Douglas ticket.
The others all denounce it, but haven't made
up their minds whether to nomInally sup
port it, or to go in for the Breckenridge
ticket.
A SCIENTIFIC association of Dublin has
sent out one Patrick 0Flaherty to investi-
gate, and if possible, to report upon the con-

ever discover what is the matter with the
crater.
THE profigacy and corruption of the

A BOAT load of coal was brought to this
city day or two since, by propeller from
Cincinnati. The construction of this steam
er was rather novel in its character, the
engine and propelling apparatus being
placed in a detached boat which fit to the
rear of the other so that except on close ex-
animation both appeared to form but one.
The object of this arrangement was to pre-
vent the wheel of the propeller being too far
submerged. The idea seems to be ex-
cellent one.-Fort Waync Times.
THE LONDON TINES OWNED BY THE RoTHs-
CHILDs.-It has recently been proven that
the London Times is mainly owned by the
Rothschilds and the fact creates consider
able sensation in London. The statement
of Mr.. John Walter, ii. p, in Parliament,
that he was not the principal owner, as
well as the course taken by the Times for
many years, proves and confirms it all.
Not one single move on the political chess

dency to Injure the securities of any nation
that were large creditors of the house of
Rothschids, particularly Austria, but has
been vehemently opposed by the Times.
Bly@The Douglas meeting in Washington
City was the most decided and Notifying
failure ever witnessed there; so much so as
to attract the sympathy of his opponents.
Messrs. Reverdy johnson, Pugh, Brant, and
others were announced to speak, but after
the Marine Band had played for an hour,
there was so few on the ground that no Or
ganZation was attempted till near 9 o'clock.
Not particle of enthusiasm was manifested,
and the names of Douglas and johnson
were answered with feeble expression of
applause from n few individuals. Most of
the audience was composed of spectators coll
lected by curiosity, and n large proportion
Of boys. Judge Meek and other Breckin-
ridge leaders were present. The Republican
ratification there was ten times as large and
enthusiastic. ......
THE editor of the Ohio Statesman not con-
tent with asSailing JohnC. Breckenridge as
a traitor, is guilty of an insinuation that be
is niucompoop of the first water. 1t says
in an article endeavoring to account for the
candidacy of the "gallant and gifted 3"
young Kentuckian:
From some things that have leaked out,
it is now very probable that Mr. Breckin-
