The Great Eastern" on Exhibition at
New York.

The Great Eastern is the reigning "lion"
at New York. Here is what the Tribune of
the Sd July says:
The principal feature Of attraction in the
metropolis yesterday was the Great Eastern;
and never in the history of Gotham has the
vicinity of Hammond, Bank and Bethune
streets been the focus of greater throng
than was all dav gathered to CRAFTY the pub
lie curiosity. The influx commenced at an
early hour in the morning and from that
time until night let down her curtain in
creased by thousands. Central Park was
comparatively deserted, the Sixth, Fourth
and Third avenue cars hardly doing a week
DAYS business, while the Eighth and Ninth
avenue cars, which run in the vicinity of the
great show were crowded to sutfocation.
Every street running towards the North
River in the locality of the ship was black
with people-men, women and children
vending their way to the dock. From the
east side especially the delegation was i'm
mense, while those living in Williamsburg,
Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken and other
suburbs had facilities provided for their ac-
commodation in the shape Of steamers and
ferry boats, which ran at frequent intervals
during the day, conveying passengers around
the ship at price varying from ten to
twenty five cents There We're some eight
or ten of these, and as many of them were
crowded to the waters edge on some of
their trips, it is fair to suppose that hand
some profit was derived Probably no less
than 100000 pairs of eyes gazed upon the
huge stranger in the course of the day.
Yet, not withstanding the throng, the dust,
the heat, and other things calculated to try
ones temper, the best of decorum prevailed,
and the services of the large force Of police
were comparatively unnecessary. Lemonade
and lager beer received liberal patronage,
aud some of the vendors reaped handsome
profits from the hungry and thirsty A few
instances of intoxcation required attention,
as they always do IN miscellaneous gath
ering, but nothing that came to our ears in
dcated that the general peace and good
order had been disturbed On shipboard ev-.
erything appeared quiet An occasional
head appeared above the buIwarks and
looked down upon the crowd, but no con-
nection between tho ship and shore took
place. except when some lucky fellow re-
ceved leave of absence, when he moved
as rapidly through the crowd as joyful pair
of legs could cayyy him.. " A. estimated
that not less than $4,000 people visited the
dock on foot alone, to say nothing of the
great number who looked upon her majes-
tic form from the decks of sundry steamers.
Everybody appeared delighted and expec-
tation, Judging from the various remarks,
did not appear to be greatly disappointed.

Why Vitriol Prevents Smut.
A writer in the Napa Reporter, says:

A writer in the Napa Reporter, says
IAN article appeared in your columns
last Spring, discussing the chemical ration
ale of the use of vitriol for the prevention of
smut, which led me to try some experiments.
The article suggested lst, that the appli-
cation Of vitrio to the soil, in suitable guam
titles, would as etfectualy prevent smut,
as saturation of the seed in solution Of
that substance.
Cd. That the vitality of the seed would
thus be less liable to injury than under the
ordinary treatment.
Sd. That by applying vitriol directly to
the soil, greater crops might be produced.
thus applied, might probably continue for
some years without renewal.
To test the truth of these merely theoret-
ica suggestions, made the following expe-
riment, which, l think fully sustains the
three first of them.
In sowing piece of wheat there was
lack of seed prepared by saturation in vitri-
oil, and a small strip was in consequence,
sown with unsatura.ed seed. About the
first of March, a part of the ground thus
sown, was sprinkled with finely powdered
viriol.
The result of the experiment is AS follows:
Upon the ground sown with seed which
had passed the ordeal of saturation, the pro-
duet is one.tenth to one-eighth smut. Up
on the ground where the vitriol was APP
piled directly--a strip about by 25 feet
only or heads of smut are to be seen.
and the portions of smut are smal-only
from "a of an inch to 2 l-2 inches long.
From this result, think it fairly demon
strated that the application of vitriol can
most profitabIy be made directly to the soil.
1t is most likely that if it had been applied
before the termination of the seed there
would have been no smut at all; whereas,
the grain was lS inches high when the ap-
pication was made, and had attained a
large proportion of its appointed size, upon
soil lacking Theoretically one of the in
gradients necessary to make it perfect wheat.
Evidently, in order to produce its full effect,
the vitriol should have been applied before
the termination of the seed
If any Of our farmers or observing people
desire to see for themselves whether | am
correct in my conclusions or not, they can
have the pleasure Of gratifying their visual
organs, by visiting the ranch of Coroner
Schultze, at a point some 800 yards south
of the house and near Napa river--as the
parcel on which made my experiment will
be left for a while for inspection.

DICKINSON ON THE RETURN OF THE SECE

the prominent Democrats of New York who
has declared for Breckenridge, and has car
ried over no small fraction of Democratic
papers and voters with him. This, was 4
loregone conclusion with Mr.. Dickinson, as
he addressed the following letter to one OF
the New York delegates to Baltimore, three
DAYS before the Convention met.
greatly fear an unwise, and, if successful,
a fatal effort to resist the return of the with
drawing delegations. SO far from resisting
the return of these delegations they should
be welcomed to the floor of the Convention
and to their seats amidst every demonstra'
ton of applause known to a popular assem-
bly,. Their rejection would break up the
Convention, break up the Democratic party,
and be great entering wedge for disrupt
ion and disunion. If the Convention reject
those delegates, hope my friends will 60

Our Nominees.

Jul NUUlluCCo'
With this issue we hoist the names of
Breckenridge and Lane as the standard
bearers of the Democratic party in this great
contest, and have no fear that the State
which threw her vote for the first one, four
years ago, will re.endorse him 10y a trium-
phant majority. Breckenridge is emf hat
ically a representative man. No statesman
of his age stands before the country with q
more consistent record or a more brilliant
reputation. lie has been as gallant on the
field as he is wise, eloquent and command
ing in the councils of the nation.
OF General Lane, our candidate for Vice
President, what shall we say? Who does
not recollect him in 1S47, as tho private
soldier, then as the General Officer, and
again as the Marion of the Mexican War,
winning laurels for himself and fame for his
country, which shall be as enduring as her
own mpershable history. He has not only
won a name on the battle fields of Mexico,
but he is known throughout the country as
an able, sound, and thoroughly national
man. We know that the true hearts OF the
Democratic masses of this coast, from San
Diego to Washington Territory, will give
| Il glorious I0SpOnS0 W ulS HOillHdIloH.
We are proud Of the ticket; not for the
men but for the principles which they rep
resent 1t is to the platform we proudly
point, as being truly and faithfully national
There is not line that needs to be ex
planned. The tricks and cheats of construc-
ton and sectional Interpretation are not
needed for this declaration Of principles,
which has been adopted by the Seventeen
Democratic States of the Union. We hail
it as the larbinger of the good time coming
AS the dawn of sentiment which shall
work its way through the masses Of tie poo
pie, until the nation shall be redeemed from
the monstrous dogma of squatter sovereign
ty, and from the dangerous hereses of black
republican patriots.
Upon this platform we call upon the De-
mocracy of California to rally, and sustain
the men who endorse the doctrine of equal
rights and exact justice to American citizens,
no matter from what section of our great
Confederacy they may come.

From the Marysville Express.
Meet the Issue at Once.

The San Jose Reporter, paper which
has but recently buckled on the Democratic
armor, is much troubled at the division in
the party, and earnestly beseeches the Cen
tral Committee to endeavor to heal the
breach We appreciate the patriotic feel
ings of the editor of that paper, but we are
satisfied that nothing the Committee
could do would have the effect desired by
the Reporter. The issue is great and liv-
ing one, which must be met. There is no
use in trying to smother it; it cannot be
done. Had prudent councils prevailed at
Baltimore; had the friends of Mr.. Douglas
not forced him and his odious squatters SOW
ereigntv doctrines on the convention 10y the
most outrageous means ever heard of in such
body, no division would have occurred; but
that was done by preventing tair express
sion of the will Of the convention, partly 10y
an unfair and unjust rule, and partly by ex
cluding regularly elected delegates and 10y
admitting bogus ones. These acts of tyran-
ny and injustice bursted the convention as
under A portion of that body nominated
Mr.. Douglas, and placed him upon squat
ter sovereignty platform. Another portion
nominated Mr.. Breckenridge and adopted
platform recognizing the equality of the
States, and the rights Of the citizens of all
the States to an equal participation in the
Territories, claiming protection for all. The
issues is therefore made up, and it behooves
us to take our position under one banner or
the other. For our part we have no hesita-
ton in declaring that we enlist under the ban
ner of breckenridge and Lane, because we en-
dorse the principles laid down in the plat
form upon which they stand, and repuliate
the Douglas platform. We adhere to the
old Democratic doctrine of "principes, not
men," We would prefer to be defeated in
the advocacy Of Just principles than to be
successful upon principles which are obnox-
ious to us. But we entertain no fears of
defeat. We have an abiding confidence in
the people, and we doubt not that they will
stand by the rights in this contest.
The issue is made up; let us meet it fear
lessly and boldly; let us 90 before the peo'
pie relying upon the justice of our cause,
and we need not fear defeat. We trust that
tie State Central Committee WIN take
bold and independent stand for the right,
and if they cant agree, let them "agree to
disagree" There is no use in staving Oft
the matter temporarily for it must come,
and the sooner the better.
