THE RAILROAD AGAIN.--It will be seen
by an advertisement in another column that
scaled proposals will be received till the Ist
Of December next, for the construction oi
ten miles more of the II. & n. Railroad
So the good work goes on. As we have
before stated, the first five miles of the
Road has been completed, and the tax is
now being collected to pay for the work
already done; and it affords us pleasure to
state that those owing taxes have paid up
readily and willingly. The work upon the
second five miles of the Road is now being
commenced, and we have no doubt will be
vigorously pushed forward to completion
Let not the interest in this highly import
ant undertaking languish, but let us nurture
the spirit of enterprise, which, we are glad to
see, is rapidly developing itself in our
midst.-Heasd. Nal oct. 80.

HOME PAPERs.-Stick to your home
newspapers. No matter if you are poor
remember none are so poor as the ignorant
except it be the depraved, and they too, of
ten go together. Take your home paper
though it may not be SO large or imposing
as some city weekly, but remember it is the
advertiser of your neighborhood, and daily
business, and tells you what is going on
around you instead of thousand miles
away. Ifit is not printed on as nice paper
as the weekles and as good rs you wish to
have it, pay your subscription promptly
and rely upon the natural pride of the pub
Usher to prompt him to improve it as fast as
possible.

FRANCE.--The Times Paris correspondent
says, that the departure of the Pope's nuncio
from Paris was considered the forerunner of
OF the Pope's quitting Rome. The same alI-
thOrity says, seldom has the spirit of hostil-

and never has it been more boldly displayed.

How DOUGLAS MADE LINcOLS.-The Little

that he made Lincoln, and that but for
him Lincoln wouldn't have been known,
etc That he has done much towards ere
ating an occasion for the display of Mr..
Lincoln's qualities and character, cannot be
denied. Indeed, we think he has done in
that respect, more than any other man. But
we think it should be anything buta matter
Of boasting with him. He has made
Lincoln in the same sense that the incen-
diary "makes the gallant fireman, by
whose efforts the burning building and its
precious contents are saved from destruction.

The Wide AWakes are apparently 4 riddle
to the southern Democrats. Net only are
they surprised at the numbers and the en-
tlusiasm Of those young men, but they stand
II awe of the good order aud discipline
always evinced. Surely, they saw, it must
be secret military organization how
could they march ard wheel with SO mach
regularity, and maintain their ranks under
such strong provccauonS, unless they were
subject to military rule.
A writer IL the Charleston Mercury of
the lst instant, amid q variety of specula-
tlons IN the matter, sums up in this wise :
Their arrangements are decidedly mar
tlal. They have their captains, their lieu
tenants and their sergeants. They are
dressed in uniforms as snowy as that Of orr
regular militia. They are drilled in the
light infantry tactics, and already march as
well rs some Of our Oldest military CON-
panies. On grand demonstrative payades
Ike that which startled the town few
weeks ago, they are headed by the E. D.
Morgan Light Artillery, With two brass
guns. 1t only requires the substitution of
muskets for torches, ana swords for walking
sticks, to convert those apparently innocent
hre-bearers into Il well-drilled and efficient
soldiery. II is noteworthy fact that the
Republican leaders are concentrating nearly
all their campaign funds upon the promo
ton OF these parades. Three objects arc
plainly to be subserred by their torchlight
militia:
First young men are drawn into it for
the fun of the thing and thus become ac-
tive Republicans. Second, a powerful body 4
guard is organized for the furtheranee OF /
Republican interests at the polls
'Third. if Lincoln should be elected Pres |
dent, and he should require an army of I
100, 600 drilled volunteers in any conceiv-
lble exigency, they would be Immediately
orthcoming. There is no false alarm, no
,xaggeration, about these surmises. Of
'oUrse, the possible ultimate use to which
'ueh an army may be put gives to the ap-
'roaching demonstration of the torch-light
militia in this city an importance which
otherwise would not attach to it. The state
aents which you see in Republican papers
bout the numbers who will attend are not
90 highly colored. And, furthermore, tits
United that the show in October will be nu-
nerically insignificant compared with the
me which will be made if Lincoln is elect
d, in the city of Washington, on the 4th of
larch next No wonder that persons, the
oolest and most familiar with clectioueer-
ng machinery, are alarmed when they
ontemplate the possible result of these mar
ial preparations"

INFLUENCE OF THE Bible IN PRESERVING
THE PURITY OF TIE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
1t requires no objectionable amount Of en-
ia usiasm in the American scholar to believe
that the circumstance of the present version
Of the English Bible having appeared at the
! time 1t did, had some proyidential reference
to the wants Of the new empire lust then
about 10 rise in the West This version.
destined so ong to be the oracle of the
Anglo Saxon race, was published Just nine
years before the Pilgrims landed at Ply
mouth. Now, it is safe to assert, and would
have required no uncommon powers Of pro-
Phecy then to t0resee, that whatever new
version might thereafter appear in England,
tbs bible which those worthless brought with
them, which they read and prayed over in
the Mayiower, ont of which they derived
the authority for their new social and their
old ecclesiastical polity, which was their
palladium through all the dangers and tri-
ais OF their early settlements, on which their
first civil officers had been solmuizcd would
have such a hold on the memories and af-
fections of their children and childrens
children, that it would be impossible here
to supplant it by any other for many gen.
erations. Happily-providentiall we will
say-this version was one ofsuCh excellence
that it was not supplanted by any other at
home, but has continued to this day to teach
the two nations, morning and evening for
two and half centuries, along with its les
sons Of love to God and love to man, at
MISUNDERSTANDING, almost--for the pur-
est and racest English that can be found in
our literature. Indeed, we imagine that
due estimate Of the influence which the
English Bible has had, during so long
time, in keeping the language of these two
Bible reading people from corruption and
from divergence, would at first sight appear
exaggerated and fi3ncitul,-N0rtH An7crican

Bs9p A fusion of the Breckinridge, Bell
and Douglas parties has been made in New
Jersey on one electoral ticket. The modus
operondt, and the attendant circumstances
of the fusion, are thus given by the New
York Tribune of the goth:
y private caucus held on Friday night at
the Astor House in this city, took down the
Douglas ticket in New Jersey, and put up
new Fusion ticket. This ticket is COM
posed of:
Silas Condit, of Essex (BelD.
Edmund Brewer, OF Camden (Breckin-
ridge.
John S. Darcy, Of Essex fBrcckinridce).
Peter D. Vroom, Of Mercer (Breckin-
ridge.
William Cook, of Hudson (Dougas).
Joel Parker, Of Monmouth, Douglas.
Theodore Ruuyon, Of Essex (BelD.
Months ago, the Douglas men of New
jersey were urged to unite in the support
OF a Fusion ticket whereon ths,e Electors
were conceded to them and they in full
Convention, deliberately refused. Believing
that theirs was the regular Democratic nom
mation, and that success was TO be secured
through the support of such nomination,
lf IN any way, they GmphatIcalIy refused to
fuse. And now handful of office-seckers,
claiming to be Douglas leaders, claim to
have sold out the concern for fifty per cent.
less than was offered by the buyers a few
months ago The sellers will not be able
to deliver the goods.
As the Fusion ticket was made up in this
city, it is very natural that a majority of
the Electors upon it should be selected from
its immediate neighborhood. -Four of them
live within an hours ride OF US, while West
Jersey has hut two in alI-only one of them
west of Trenton. II is q one sided business
every way.
