THE CAMPAIGN.

The opposition arc gradually open
ing their eyes to the fact that Dem
oeracy is a greater power in tho land
than they calculated to come from u
dead party" and that it is becoming
so formidable that they cannot hope
to beat it in the coming contest
except by resort to their old and
favorite weapons Of misrepresenta-
ton, fraud, lying, sensation, excite
ment and stirring up the evil passions
Of their adherents almost to state
Of desperation. To this end they are
flooding all parts Of the country with
lying documents, purporting to be
speeches aud sayings Of the Demo
cratic candidates. On this coast they
are widely circulating n spurious doc
ument purporting to he a speech Of
Blair's in 1866, in ST. louis, in which
the Fcnians are attacked in II villain
GUS manner the same document also
states that Blair was know-Noth-
ing and opposed to all classes of for
eigners. 4 late st. Louis Reptjiican,
in noticing this libel on Blair, says
that he did not make single speech
in 1866, aud that he was always bit
tcrly opposed TO the Know-Nothing
or American party" Besides this, he
always commanded the German intlu-
ence OF Missouri, and no man of
common SENSE would suppose that n
proscriptiyc Native American could
command any considerable German
or foreign vote Of any class. II these
unmaniy and uuierband attacks were
not huo,rH TO be false, the very cir
cumstancc Of his commanding the
vast German vote Of Missouri for so
many years past would disproyo them.

FIGURES FOR VOTERS.

The United States contains popu-
lation OF 35,0o0,o 900, including women,
children, Indians and Cinnamon. The
Secretary Of the Treasury stated in
his report to Congress that the Ma
tional debt amounted to $2,6oo,ooo,-
600. This, divided by 35,oo0,0o0
gives quotient of n 2-7, or if the
debt were apportioned among the
whole population, each persons share
would be $64 80 yearly. Now, If to
this national debt we add sl,oO0,000,-
600 floating debt, rs stated by Mr..
Delano, Chairman of Committee ON
Claims Of the Thirty-ninth Congress,
we have total indebtedness OF
SO, 600, 100000. If this amount were
apportioncd among the people each
ones share would be sl88 81.
4 careful computation Of the total
vote pollcd in the various States aud
Territories including the registration
Of The Southern States, shows that
there are about 100000 voters in
the United States. Now, if VIC di-

Erie Railway.

= In our columns to-day will be f und the
new Time Table of this Road, which took eff
feet on the 18th inst. Several important
changes have been made. with which all of
our readers should at once become familiar
lied. The Erie Railway has long held a
leading position in the great chain of roads
uniting the West with the East which is not
alone attributable to the superior sccommOda
sions afforded passengers, the uniform civil
ity OF its officers and agents. the grandeur and
sublimity OF the section of country VIII ich it
trayeTscs. but the great vigilance exercised in
the running Of trains and providing against
accidents.
Despite the closest scrutiny and sircum-
spection. however. all great aud important
thoroughfares are liable to accidents. In the
case Of the recent accident near Carr's Rock
no human prescience could have averted the
sad catastrophe. For four years prior to its
occurrauce moi single passenger WAS injured
on this road /; and it is generally admitted
that no Line went into the past winter in a
Letter condition in all respects. than the
Erie but so unusually long and severe was
the winter that the iron in some parts of the
road yielded TO its severity. Yet. AT this
time. the Road is in as perfect condition as
the average of those i'm the country. To rem
der it safe beyond question. however, the
Company is substituting steel rails as fast as
possible for The detective iron ones; laying a
double track on the Delaware Division. aud
d Ding everything to place tina road in the
most thorough condition, The $7.000.000
which the Company recently came into POS
session OF will enable all of thee improve
ments TO be made.
As showing one of the most prominent a
chievements already secured by the work
which is being pushed rapidly forward. We
might mention the fact that the trains al
present experience no detention. bat arrive at
New York and the principal Eastern cities
at the same hour of rival lines.
The Erie continues to issue through tickets
to New York at S2.45 less than any other
route.-a fact which our readers will DO 10
bear in mind. when visiting the East either
on business or for pleasure.

EminentIy Satisfactory.

The action of the National Republican
Convention, has, in all respects, been en-
inently satisfactory to the loyal people OF
the w lest. Both the candidates are men
who have dwelt among US and are iden
titled with our interests, while they are
above all narrow, sectional feelings, and
we think the Democracy will find it hard
work to excite prejudice against New En-
gland.
The platform is equally satisfactory.
In few sentences it condenses a great
deal of sound doctrine. While Radical,
it is not Incorporate, and we can see no
reason for dissent from any of its pIsnks
on the part of any man who did not
sympathise with the rebellion.
1t is in favor of guaranteeing suffrage
to all loyal men at the South, denounces
all forms of repudiation as national
crime; declares that taxation should be
equalized and reduced as far as possible
demands strict economy and honesty in
the administration of the national gov
eminent; embraces a terrible indictm ent
against ANDREW JOHNSON for his hie
crimes and misdemeanors; asserts that
citizens of the United States, whether
native or naturalized, must be protecte d
abroad; reaffir ms pledges made to the
soldiers and sailors and their widows and
orphans; and favors the encouragement
of imigration.-Stats Journal.
