The papers this pm. contain the adj
dress of the Democratic National Com.
mittee to the conservative voters of the
United States. 1t is signed by Augustus
Belmont, chairman, and dated New
York, Oct. 90. 1t calls for more ener.
gctic effort to wrest the power from tho
Radicals, but makes no mention of tho
proposed change of candidates. 1t says
the Democratic party can fearlessly
point to every page of its record it has
never violated asingle obligation of the
fundamental compact by which United
States entered into the family ofnations'
Its watchword in peace as in war, has
been, and always will be, the Union,
the Constitution, and the laws, and no
man or set of men, however high they
may be placed by the SURFACES of their
fellow-citizens, can ever expect to receive
the support of this great conservative
party in any revolutionary attempt
against established laws.
The ballot box and the supreme will
of the American people are the only
means to which we look for redress.
Fellow Democrats, you are fighting
for a good and righteous cause. We
have for our leader tried statesman and
a patriot who stood by the Union in its
darkest hour a man equally beloved for
the purity of his private character AZ
honored for his public virtues.
The address concludes as follows:
Your triumph in November will
finally re-cstablish the Union and the
Constitution for another generation Of
men. 1t will restore peace and good or
der to the South, prosperity to the
North, and wise and frugal rule to
both. Our ranks are unbroken, our
courage is undated; once more to the
breach, and this time victory
The State Central Democratic Ma.

REMARKABLE PRESENCE OF MIND
The noon passenger train from Rutlah
on Friday, barely escaped fearful des-
truction near Mt. Holly by the remark
able presence OF mind of David Cha
man, conductor of the freight train pre-
ccding it. As the latter train left Mt.
Holly station the coupling pin of the
rear car broke and the load and grade
being heavy the eur commenced rum
ing back towards Rutland when it was
noticed by the conductor who started
for the switch short distance below,
and Just succeeded in reaching and
shifting il as the wheels struck the
main track. Had the ear not been
stopped, its accelerated motion, by the
time it reached the passenger train,
would have been at least u mile per
minute and fearful destruction,
prot ably, of life would have followed.
A urs sc of $40 was made up by the pas
sengers, for Chapman, rs slight token
of their appreciation of his prompt and
efficient services.

The e NTERTAINMENT AT ST.. MARY S HALL.
A large audience attended Mr.. Veitch reading
last night, completely filling the spacious room.
After brief explanation of the object of the
entertainment by the Principal of St. John S
Academy, MIR. Yeith recited 'Hamlet's Advice
to the Players" and was followed by VIM. R.
Bushby and Henry McQuaide in the Quarrel
Scene from Caesar, and John D. Harrison in
the Widow Pardegglc, Mr.. Veitch then re-
cited Shakespeare Seven Ages of, Man, after
which that beautiful poem, The Gambler
Wife, was recited by Walter White, OF this city,
formerly Of Attica, N, Y, "a boy only y years
Of age, in a style equal, if not superior, to It's
execution by any professional elocutionist we
have ever heard After him came VIM. Henry
Germaun, with the Dutchmans Remedy
vile, and Mr.. Ycitch followed with Buwer's
beautiful descriptioniof Lake Como. Mackay's
True Freedom, by Thomas G.. Brent, was sue
cecded by Ezekiel's Visit, .recited with great
correctness of information and admirable appre
citation of the composition byeRichard j. Col
Inns, Of Staunton. Hogg's Skylark, by Samuel
G. Brent aud Brutus's Harangue by Richard
j. Collins, were followed by scene from Pick
wick, in which Henry McQuaide, of Shenan-
doah, as Sam Weller, in the Bardell Trial,
showed great ability asa comic actor, and was
loudly applauded. The Confessions of Bash
full Man were then read by Walter White, fol-
lowed by VIM. r. Bushby, who gave Halleck's
Marco Bozzaris, and Timothy j. OSulivan,
who convulsed the audience with the Suicidal
Cat. Masters Collins and White being then
loudly called for, repeated their first pieces
aud Mr. Veitch concluded the entertainment
by reciting with admirable pathos, The Money
less Man, beautiful and truthful poem by q
son of our former fellow citizen, the Hon. Rich
ard Fl. Stanton, of Kentucky. 81.
On the whole, the entertainment, though a
