THE ALLENTOwN ROUTE.

From the Western Railroad Gazette,
Tho through all-rail route between
Chicago and New York without inter.
mediate change ola Allentown, offers
to the travelling public several impor.
tant advantages which are not shared
by other and competing lines. 1t is
the shortest route by sixty miles con.
Meeting the West with the great East
ern metropolis, and the fact that pas
sengers can go the entire distance with
out once changing their seats, consti-
tutes an especially attractive feature for
families or ladies travelling alone.
The sixty miles gained in linear dis
lance insures to trains ola this route
abou, two hours quicker time between
terminal points over all competing
lines at the same rate of speed. This
is a great and decisive advantage,
which the representatives of the Allen
town line do not hesitate to make the
most Of. Superadded to the attrac-
tions Of a line sixty miles shorter than
any other, and through transit without
change are the superb Palace Sleeping
Cars which are attached to all night
trains, and offer their unsurpassed &C.
commodations to all who wish to enjoy
the comforts of an elegant parlor and
the exclusive privacy Of a sleeping
apartment combined. The conductors
Of these palaces on wheels are polite
and intelligent, and the steward sare at
tentive and faithful in the performance
of their duties. The Allentown route
is becoming more and more popular in
the West, and deservedly so. Travel
gravitates towards it naturally, as a
duck takes to water.

TERRIBLE BOILER EXPLOSION.

A terrible catastrophe occurred at
Manistee, Michigan, on the 22d, re.
sulting in the death of nine, and awful
" mutilating six others One of the
boilers of Green l. Brothers steam saw
mill burst with sound like an earth
quake at 3 p. NJ.
The scene at the mill, a few mo.
ments after the sad occurrence, was tru-
ly heartrending. The friends Of those
employed there were wildly shriektlg
over what they considered the certain
destruction to those near and dear to
them. In many instances their worst
fears were realized, as. the blackened
and mutilated corpses of their friends
were dragged from the debris of the ru-
ined mill. Wives were wild. Young
children were made motherless In 4
single moment. The scene beggars
description, and will never be erased
from ths memory Of those who Witness
ed it.
The cause of the catastrophe is
shrouded in mystery. Many think the
water in the boiler was nearly exhaust
ed, whilo the survivors, who ought to
know, insist that it contained the usu,l
amount. The entire mill is q total
wreck, literally torn to pieces by the
awful conclusion.

DEMOCRATIC BLAspurmv.

The spirit Of blasphemy in the Dem
ocratic party outranks even its disloyal-
ty. Nothing, however sacred, is free
from its poisonous breath. That which
men IN general take upon their lips with
the utmost reverence, is made by the
representative papers of this party mat
ter for coarse jest if not absolute revel.
ing. Brick Pomeroy is the recognized
leader, but he has many followers, whose
ambition seems to be to take precedence
n violating all recognized ideas of de.
cency, morality and religion. There
are Democratic papers which are honor.
able exceptions to this rule, yet they are
merely the exceptions, and their number
continues steadily to decrease.
The following from the Chat6eld
Democrat, Of this State, is what may BIZ
seen any day in the Democratic paper.
Of the country:
A HEAIT1 elox.-The "Wisconsin Chris
tisu Convention" WAS in session = few dav.
ago, and among other resolutions passed by
that body, We find the following:
Re:olvsd, That We do now, individually, cop,.e,...
ourselves sver 70 ood and solemny promising BY I'm
ono subject: to take Wseonst~ for Jes.s ~ ''''
Now 70 look upon this as good omen
for the Democratic party and the countr,
generally. Heretofore the sole object q
these assemblies seemed to be to carry tn,
respective States in which they were held
for tho Republican party. Then I'll We ash
Is, that the "christians'' of Wisconsin
Minnesota, and the nation At large, will At.
tend to their legitimate business-stiek ID
their candidate, and the country will be
ssved-the Democratic party victorious.
