RepublIca nfsln.

The republican party is in favor of
The rights of the states,
The freedom of the territories,
Free homes for the people,
A railroad to the Pacific,
Protection to American industry
The Constitution and laws,
The preservation of the Union.
This is the party the democracy delight
to style the " one idea " Party.
THOSE RArLs.-The Marshall (Ill.) Hor-
net, says Our Democratic friends are down
on feRce-rails. They have as great an anti
patty to them as Pryor has to Bowie-knives
They consider rails decidedly vulgar. Hick-
DRY poles and niggers they consider great
institutions, but rails, pshaw, they are vul-
gar We more than half suspect that they
have visions of I" that same old coon sitting
on a rail-" We advise our Democratic
friends to keep cool, and if you see honey
locust rails coming at you endwise, you had
better get out of the way, for it's no use
talking, rails are bound to win.
H9- Bright, Slidell, Benjamin, and few
others, including the Hon. Joseph Lane,
slave-code candidate for Vice President,
have brought up the Oregon war debt claim
at few cents on the dollar, which they ex-
pect to lobby through the next session of
Congress.
So says the Shelbyville Volunteer, Doug
las Democrat. Can Mr.. Hendricks's home
organ tell how much Bright and other Sen
ators made in buying up the Texas debt,
and then getting Congress to appropriate
ten millions Of dollars, reserving seven to
paw debts due citizens Of the United States :?
This Oregon war debt is a small matter COM
pared with the Texas speculation, which the
Democracy have sanctioned by appropriating
the money to pay it, and by silence to the
enormity of the fraud Nod. Courier

BE- The Enquirer says that every DEM
ocratic paper in Indiana has raised the
Douglas flag" This is mistake-three
have hoisted the Breckenridge and Lane
banner, and by the time that Jesse D. Bright
does a little of his skillful manipulating,
there will be "more of the same sort" We
have told our Enquirer friends several times
that the Breckenridge party is the Democrat
ic party; and if they don't heed the warn
Ing and give Douglas "the SACK they will
find themselves some morning, "outside Of
healthy political organization" We pre-
dict that in thirty days there will be less
Douglas, and more Breckenridge men in
Indiana than there are now.

time, some apprehension would be felt for the safety
of thu vessel The changes wrought by steam in a-
ciitlting public travel have led to the not unound
ed expectation that private vehicles may yet be so
constructed as to traverse our public thoroughfares
without the of horses. The point to be decided
Is not whether machines. self-impelled, can be
made to move freely over common roads-for that
fact has already been demonstrated by the traction
engine of BoYDELL by the steam fire engine which,
some months ago, was run at fair rate of speed
from Bristol to Philadelphia; and by FAwKEs
steam-plough, as exhibited at the Illinois State
Fair, and at other places But these several inven
tons are all of them heavy, cumbrous, compare
lively slow, and, in some respects, defective. Boy
DELL uses besides, what may be termed "a travel
cling rail-" FAwKEs substitutes cylinder for
wheels and the wheels of the Philadelphia steam
fre-engine have tires of unusual breadth. These
are it must be confessed Objectionable features
What is wanted and what, in all probability, the
inventive genius of the age is yet destined to sup.
ply, is the application of machinery to vehicles not
differing materially from those in common use.
The entire affair must be light and compact; SIM
pie in its arrangements; clearly in operation; free
from danger; comparatively inexpensive, and Ca
pable of overcoming al the ordinary gradients
that are to be met with on common highways
When these conditions are fulfilled the perfection
of travelling will have been attained, and inventors
are even now patiently and unweariedly endeavor-
ing to effect so desirable result. In Scotland the
EARL of CAITHNEss has been driven recently in
steam irecarriage "from Inverness to Barrogel Cas-
tie, distance of $50 miles, virtually in two days,
andM Mr.. RIoKETT the builder of the carriage in ques
ton, proposes to supply similar machines, capable
of carrying three persons at speed of ten miles
an hour on any ordinary roads. In his invention
the carriage and the engine are distinct the latter
requiring two persons to manage it-one to sup
ply fuel and water and the other, seated in front,
to guide it ID any direction that may be either
requisite or desirable. The machine, therefore,
cannot be said to be SO perfect SO simple to
render it generally useful; but it is at least,
other step forward in the right direction, and will
serve to stimulate others to improve upon the
principle, until the point which is sought to be
attained shall be finally reached

LATER FROM CHINA

Hone KoNG, Aug. love have announced by
telegraph the departure of the whole of the British
forces from their rendezvous at fallen for the
Pieho, on the 26th of July; the French force to
leave Cheefoo on the same date. Lord gin paid
visit to Cheefoo, accompanied by the General
and Admiral, and returned to Talien about the
Goth; and the embarkation of the troops commenced
on the oath. The British force very complete in
every respect; but the China Mail says the French
are very defective in numbers, are short of arte-
ry, and have cavalry, and no sufficient means
OF transport.
Altogether the allied force will number about 26O
vessels, inclusive of transports, and it is thought
that this imposing force may cause the Chinese
Government to come to terms at once. But Lord
Elgin, believe, has determined to take the forts
before treating The forces will rendezvous at the
Shaluytien Islands, about fourteen miles from the
Pieho. The landing will take place at Pehtang
and the first division under General Mitchell, CON
sisting of the lst, I'd, 3ls and Goth regiments and
a Punjaub regiment, will land at first Simultaneous
ly with the French force for the attack. We be-
lieve every effort will be made to prevent our for
ces wintering in the north, and that after the forts
are taken the Chinese will be pressed very hard for
terms.
The rebels are said to be Withdrawing themselves
to Suchau. They also said to have taken the
city OF tsin in the centre OF the silk districts
Shanghae still remains in the same unsettled
state. serious misunderstanding has occurred
between her Majesty's Consul and the Commission
ers of Customs.
At Fohchau fash of lightning set the Model
Tower on fire, and it was reduced to ashes The
Model Tower situated few miles out from the
city, and was of the sights to be seen by for
egners. The fact of its being burnt down on the
-Emperor's birthday was regarded by the natives
as rather ominous.
We have nothing of Importance to note from
Annoy.
The people of the prefecture of Chaouchans, of
which Swallow is the port, becoming very in
imical to the foreigners, and have been issuing pa
cards, the tenor of which is "kill, ki' The
cause of their animosiy is said to have arisen from
her Majesty's Consul having sent word to the
Taputal that he would shortly pay him visit in
gun boat, and also the arrival of two heavily
armed junks to enforce the payment of duties by
native trading boats, under the new custom house
system.
From the Manila we learn that the American
vessel, the crew of which mutined, was a trans
port, and had large quantity of artillery and
munition on board. H. NJ. l. N. steamer Zonobia
left Hong Kong on the morning of the 9th to see
after her.
We regret to say sickness is very prevalent
among the troops at Canton. The rebels are said
to be in possession of some important passes, which
prevents produce coming down.
The London Illustrated Ne,os is to be continued
under its present management for the benefit of
the family of its late proprietor, Mr. Ingram, who
was lost by the Lady Elgin disaster.

HOLIDAY STREET THEATRE.-Mr. Booth made his
first appearance last night at Holiday Street The
atre, in the character of Hamlet, to fall house.
No part has ever been esteemed more difficult of
performance than this and critics have assigned it
the highest place among the productions of the
greatest dramatist that put pen to paper. Dis
senators have commented upon it in lengthy pages,
and their opinions have been variant numbers
could make them. The greatest of actors have es-
sayed its representation, but have stumbled in their
comprehension of its subteties, and quarrelled re-
gardng the rendition of its more hidden passages.
and skilfully and truthfuly drawn, and partly an
indulgence of the widest imagination, and draw
ing of things superhuman it is wonder that this
masterpiece of genius has always remained mys-
terry, and given rise to every variety of speculation
to the interest and meaning of the author.
Mr.. Booth, last night, gave US his idea of the
character. His performance was clever, and bore
the impress of much study, and in many passages
he was fully entitled to the appreciation which the
audience so literally bestowed. We have seen
some in the part who pleased us better, but we
have also seen many of more boastful pretensions
who pleased US less. The admirer and thoughtful
student of Shakespeare will find much to reward
him by visiting Mr.. Booth. Polonius, Ophelia and
The Ghost were also very well represented last
night. Hamlet win be repeated this evening, when
we may take occasion to alude to some of the
striking points of the play.

The following, from the New York Tribune of
yesterday, will show pretty conclusively the est-
mate placed upon the effect of our recent munich
pal election by the Republican leaders. Although
the accessions to LINCOLN in this quarter are not
of quality to congratulate any respectable candi
date upon, they not only detract largely in num-
bers but still more in moral influence from the BELL
and EVERETT cause. These assertions to Republic
cansm show too plainly the materials of which
the Union party was lately composed, and the in
iuences to which it subject, to render longer
association with it altogether agreeable to those
who would not have their loyalty TO the South
called in question:
MARYLAND CoMING.-We have ardent appeals from
carry Maryland for Lincoln Since the collapse of
the American organization in Baltimore thousands have
resolved to do nothing which can tend
to perpetuae Democratic msrue but to cast their votes
directly for Lincoln and Hamn Up to this time, it has
been supposed that Bell would carry Maryland; it is
morally certain to for Breckenridge, while Lincoln will
beat Douglas badly in the popular vote.
If Thomas Corwn John Sherman Francis B. Blair, Jr
Cassus NJ Clay, E. Joy Norris and few good
from States already certain for Lincoln could give
days each Maryland, should have hopes of its
Electoral Vote Cannot of these be induced pay
her visit? Who afford to send few thousands of
the best Republican speeches and documents, including
some printed in German to our electrified friends in
Baltimore9 They aroused by their new prospects,
and ready to work. John s. Graham Secretary Fifteenth
Ward Republican Association Baltimore, will respond to
all inquiries.
