Pacific RAILROAD Bill.

The bill allowing the Kansas branch OF the
Pacific Railroad-more properly known as the
Union Pacific Railroad Eastern Division-to
select its own route westward from Fort Riley
to Denver, passed the Senate yesterday. We
trust the bill will promptly pass the House OF
Representatives. 1t is of vital importance both
to the rapid construction of the road and to the
commercial interests OF the whole country. If
this bill passes we shall expect to be in railroad
communication with Denver within the next
two wears

DEsPICABLE PARTIsANsHIP.--Does our Demo
cratic contemporary suppose that it can really
injure Governor GEARY's prospects by its puerie
inueDdoes and foolish ISLANDERS concerning his
military career? Does il remember the cases of
General HARRISON and General TAYLOR, and the
result that followed a similar style of election
eering tactics? General GEARYs reputation for
soldicriy valor stands too high, even among
honest and fair-minded Democrats, TO be tar
nished in the least by these contemplate sput
terlngs of Copperhead malice.

POPULARITY OF THE WAR IN ITALY.-The war
AGAINST Austria is as popular in Italy as it ap
pears to be unpopular in some parts of Prussia.
The news from Italy reminds one of the old
times of volunteering in this country, The Gov
ernment has more troops offered than it needs.
Rich and poor mobiles and peasants are focking
to the ranks. Italian unity is as strong rally
ing cry there as Union was with us. The
name of GARIBALDI, too, is a host in ITSELF That
great leader sways the popular heart of Italy

The Value of Congressional Experience.
ELIHU B. WAsHBURNE has been again Dominated
for Congress from the Third District of Illinois.
His nomination is equivalent to an election, and
his next term will be his thirteenth. We are
glad to see that the Republicans are generally
renominating their pre-ent members. Power
and influence in Congress are only to be secured
by experience. New members are comparative
ciphers. They are excluded from all important
posts on the committees; they are generally
ignorant OF the rules of the House and of its
methods of doing business: and they can exert
but limited influence upon the legislation of
the country. l the people of any district want
to be felt in the present crisis public affairs in
this country, let them re-elect their old men,
Der, il he be true AMI faithful man. man of
even very moderate abilities, and who has had
Congressional experience, is altogether prefer
able to a new man, however brilliant.

ROUSSEAU AND GRINNELL,-A great effort Is
being made to shield Mr.. ROUSSEAU from the
odium of his recent assault upon Mr.. GRINNELL,
on the ground that GRNNELL abused him in
debate. The truth is ROUSSEAU commenced the
game of personalities, not only against GRIN.
NELL, but also against several other members.
GRNNRLL, as it finally proved had the sharpest
tongue of the two, and hence ROUSSEAU resorted
to violence. ROUSSEAU was the aggressor

PITTSBURG CONVENTION.
The Neutrality-suspicious..

PHILADELPHIA, September %.
To the Chairman.of the Soldiers and Sailors
Convention at Pittsburg;
The Union League Of Philadelphia
sends greeting to the loyal soldiers and
sailors convention. May the results of
your deliberations in council be as sue
cessful as your glorious victories on land
and sea
(Signed) JAMES II. 0RNE
Major Joseph P. Longhead, of Phila-
delphia, offered the following resolutions:
Resolred, That the thanks of the eoun-
try are due to the thirty ninth Congress
of the United States for their revision
and action upon the much perverted neu-
trality laws Of the United States, and to
Hon. n. P. Banks, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations, for his able
and exhaustive report thereon.
Resolred, That we deeply feel for the
enthralled and oppressed Of all nations,
and accord TO them our liyeliest sympa-
thy. and whenever lawful and practicable,
our earnest co-operatien.and assistance
in their efforts 10 throw of the yoke of
their oppressors and erect for themselves
a republic like cur own; and we are an
mated with the hope that the day is not
far distant when Ireland in the old world,
and Mexico in our own continent, can
hail us as free republican nationalities
in fact, as they should be Of right.
The above was referred TO the com
mittee under rules of the convention.
A delegate moved that the convention
take recess until half past 2 O'Clock,
but subsequently, withdrew that motion.
Gen. Butler, chairman. of the commit
tee on resolutions, appeared in the hall
with the report Of that committee. At
ter great cheering, Gen. Butler came
forward and said Mr President-The
committee on resolutions unanimously
instructed me to report the following as
a platform Of principles for the soldiers
and sailors convention here assembled !:
BE- the soldiers and sailors of The
army and nary Of The United States IN
convention assembled, be IL resolred,
That the action Of the present Congress
in passing the pending constitutional
amendment is wise, prudent, and just.
Il clearly defines American citizenship,
and guarantees all its rights to every
citizen. Il places on q just and equal
basis the right representation, making

pITTsBURG PRINCIPLES.

We publish in another place the reso'
buttons adopted by the Pittsburg Con-
vsntion of Federal yoldiers. The tone
of them is anything but assuring, and
seems rather declaration Of a chronic
hatred, than the sentiments 'of justice
and fraternity 1t is quite evident that
these soldiers served in the war for q
different purpose than that of restora-
ton of the Union. They fought for CON
quest and suhiugaton, and all the con-
sequences to result from that policy.
First, they recognize the South as gov
eminent and belligerent, and not as
people in the aggregate committing
treason. They next announce the con-
quest to be complete, the State Govern
ments of the South destroyed, and the
people liable TO be treated as subjects.
Absolute control is claimed over the pro
periy and lives Of eight million people.
In rebellng, il is claimed that these
people lost, through Confederate and
State Governments, the right to claim
justice, and have reserved TO themselves
nothing but the privilege of repenting
and asking pardon of those who an
nounce in advance that it viii never be
granted. This is an unpleasant state Of
affairs, and the question very naturally
occurs-how can we help ourselves?
The enthusiasm of the convention,
manifested throughout the whole per
formance, the character of the speeches
and resolutions, lead Southern readers to
the belief that they are still regarded as
public enemies, and that another inva-
sion is among the probabilities of the
future. One resolution is significant
1t provides that Congress be requested 10
remove from the South all arms and mil
itary stores not actually needed for the
service. One of two points must be true
the convention apprehends an out
break on the part of the South, or
designs disarmament in view of an in
vasion. The first is absurd. The people
of the South are too poor, too sorrowful,
TO think Of war now. They have not the
disposition, if they possessed the means.
They think more of famine than Of war.
They have had war; now have pesti-
lence, and famine points its skeleton
finger at them. These calamities strike
no chord Of sympathy in the bosoms of
such men as BUTLER, BRowNLOw and
STEVENS One cold dark stream of
malice runs through their souls, discolor-
ing their lives and whitening every ad-
venturous flower of humanity. Names
have been given to all crimes but one.
For desolating the desolated, for outrag-
ing the outraged, for Staying the slain,
for multiplying sorrows until humanity
sinks under the iniolerable burden. is a
crime unnamed on earth.

mainly Differed by Frenchmen, is one
of the things spoken of.
The agreement between France and
Mexico, signed at Mexico on the 30th OF
lJuly, transfers to the French govern
ment half the receipts of all the marine
customs in the empire in order to secure
the payment of the principal and inte-
rest of the loans contracted in 1876,
and all obligations resulting thereirom,
and likewise for the payment of the in
terest at three per cent. on all sums due
by Mexico to France. The amount of
the latter debt, which is approximately
valued at $50, 900, 900 francs, will be sub
sequently definitely fixed.
The Eastern question again claims
considerable attention. Continental
journals state that it is no longer the
insurrection in Gambia alone which
causes uneasiness TO the Porte Move
ments are beginning in Epirus and in
the Island Of Calos and Cyprus.
The London Morning Post says it is
said that the British government has
advised the Porte to accord to the island
of Crete an autonomy similar to that of
Servia, but that the Porte refused to act
on the advice.

anniversary of the Paris Convention for

Meanwhile, the so-called French pom
tifical legion, 1900 men, was to embark

remonstrances from that place.
