wHATIsA DEMoCRATa

1t is very difficult to give any idea o
what Democracy or Democrat is in th,
present iliclualing condition of that par
y and its press. No two Northern JOUR
nails have tho same principles or make
tho same professions In fact harily any
two columns any given paper are con.
sistent with each other. In the South il
is easier. There to hate the blue and
wear the gray is the short and simple
creed Of the Democratic faith. To this
tho whole party, North as we'll as South
will shortly come. Even now our Dem
ocalic friends in West Va, bear their
disguise unsrOceiully, and under the OK.
ciiement Of the late elections, are FESTIVE
under it.
The editor OF the Jefferson Weekly
Clarion, Democratic journal Of Texas,
in late number undertakes in his salu.
Iatory to define for his readers tho nature
and duties ola Democrat. We think he
has we'll succeeded, and il he porseVeres

TIE RAILROAD ELECTION,

AS tho proposition 10 raise 100000
in county bonds, the interest of which
was to be paid by taxing the citizens of
'tho county, to assis! in building a rail
road through the county, has been 70
ted down, it might be we'll enough to cast
about for The cause Of its defeat. First,
we want to saysthatiI-is not the result
Of want of liborality on the part of our
people; for these very people have du-
ring the past few years, poured out their
money like water to pay the soldiers
bounties, build school houses, &C., with.
out murmur. But we think we can
SEQ several reasons why they refused to
lax themselves to build this road. There
is no use in trying 10 conceal the fact,
iha! there is very strong prejudice
among the people of the county against
Point Pleasant. Whether these object
ions are right or wrong il is not for US
to say now. But we know that this pre-
indice does exist, aud that il controlled
the votes of many, cannot be denied
They claim that the public buildings of
the county were built at the expense of
the people of aho county; outside Of any
aid from the town, whilst all the benefits
Of their location is enjoyed by it. They
say. it the town Of Point Pleasant will
goto work and vote 100000 for this
railroad, (Which she is fully able to do, J
that then they will have no objections in
assisting 10 build the road. This is one
thing shat aided in defeating tho enter.
prise.
Again, if the proposition had been TO
raise 100000, instead Of $500. 900, and
we had gone to work aud raised $780,
600 of it within the Corporation, as was
talked Of at one time, there is but little
doubt ihe county would have voted the
remaining $3.50, 900. But in this we
failed, and we mus! not suppose that
others can be made to help people
that will not help themselves.
Again, the canvass was most certainly
avery weak and defective Que, mot thai
w,didnot b ave good men 10 speak, il
wanted lireaud energy. Ana wO wish
TO say that tho people sh Ould be deal
with kindly, that no hard opthets should
30 heaped upon til EN- for wha, they have
dou', They have voted as freomcn, and
Jor what they considered to bo to their
best ironns,
1--we want this road, and We certainly
do; and if it will be grand success. aud
We have no doubt upon this point, and
lift is true that tho couuty's share OIL
the income will b. sufficient to coyOr the
currsat expenses Of the county, 10 few
years, which We confidently believe; ali
we have to do, Is to convince the people
20 this off,et. aud th9y will choerfully

we need not erpecIii.

Some of our Democratic contemporaries are
cndeavOrng to get up new sensation respect
ing the present political organization of the
Board of Commissioners of Emigration and the
late Counsel of the Board, John l.. Develin
esq, i'll a letter recently published, gravely
charges the Chief Magistrate of the State with
having violated an honorable agreement made,
as is alleged by him, some twenty years ago.
The offense of the Governor, Mr.. Develin as
serted consisted i'll having made the Commits
sion partisan i'll its organization and fearing
that further breach" is contemplated, he found
1t impossible for him longer to remain CON
"nected with the Commission This burst of
indignation makes it seem somewhat strange
that the learned Counselor should have con
tlnued his relations as Counsel to the Board
nearly year after the breach complained
OF had been accomplished; and it is equally
strange that when his resignation was received,
It's acceptance was moved by a Democratic
Commissioner and unanimously adopted.
We think it will appear however, that the allie
cations made in that communication are untrue
This Commission is composed of ten persons
six of whom are appointed by the Governor
and Senate, and the remaining four are OK
OfficiO members. The Board as it now stands
is made up as follows: Democrats-Gulan G.
Verplanck, President; Wilson G.. Hunt, Vice
President; John r. Hoffman, ex officio; Rich
ard 0'Gormau. ex officiO; Philip BissingeT, OK
