DELAWARE AND PENNSYLVANIA r. R.
The Friends of the projected railroad from
Delaware City by Newark to Parkesburg,
are very confident that their railroad will
be speedily built. They think they have
secured the sympathy and assistance of the
Pennsylvania Central Railroad Company,
and expect warm support from it. AT a
peritendants of that corporation was pres
ent, and in the course of some remarks
said that the. sum saved to the Penn Cen
trail Railroad, every winter, by having an
outlet for its coal not liable to be closed up
by ice, would pay the interest on the cost
of the proposed road from Parkesburg to
Delaware City. A heavy manufacturer on
the route proposes to subscribe $40, 600 to
the stock, and take $4,000 in bonds.

From Washington.
Correspondence Of the baltimore Gazette.


WASHINGTON, August 4th, 1868.
1t is now very evident that the pro-
gramme of the truly " loyal" party in the
South has been again changed, and the
idea of allowing the Legislatures of the
States TO elect Presidential Electors has
been abandoned. Mr. Devices, of North
Carolina, who wanted the reconstructed
governments to be propped up with Fed
eral bayonets, declared most emphatically
that the people of his State would never
assent to such political fraud. This and
similar declarations from Georgia MEM
bers, together with the late action of the
Georgia Legislature in electing Demo
cratic Senator, have given quietus to the
project, and with determination to try
the ballot-box comes call upon the Pres
ident for troops.
1t has already been stated that the
President is thoroughly posted as to the
alleged outrages in Louisiana, Texas and
Tennessee, and while he refers such ap-
plications as have been made for troops to
Secretary Schofeld, the Secretary is at the
same time kept informed of the true stu
alton of affairs and he rules accordingly.
The popular impression seems to be that
General Schofeld sympathizes with the
Radical party, but there is good reason for
believing the opposite. He will not allow
himself or his Department to be used to
advance the political fortunes of the Rad
ical party.
A visitor who enjoyed the gaiety and
excitement of the National Capitol short
month ago would scarcely recognize the
place in the hot, dull, sleepy town it has
become. The reaction from the high
strung, excitable, sensational community
is complete. Where all was noise is now
allquiet. Where all was gassy bombast
and political knayery, there remains only
the esdeserted and hushed Hall of Repre-
.sentatives. And yet our resident popula-
ton appear rejoiced, and the nation must
feel relieved of the nightmare which
,crouched upon its bosom. The languid
appearance of a stray ongressman-still
looking out for the loaves and fshes--or
some old Senatorial dignitary revising and
correcting buncombe speeches, shows too
plainly how he wishes himself " to hum. :"
Even the newsboys and gan,ins are less
.saucy. Government officials are more
,affable and obliging. Such is Washing
ton in the recess, relieved, however, of the
usual amount of heat and dust by the late
refreshing rains. But few of our citizens
have left their homes for the mountain air
orthe luxuries of the sea-shore. Wash.
ington was never more healthy, and there
seems to be but little occasion for any one
to leave home, unless it is only to enjoy
!" change"

picts the devotion of the Democratic party to the
Constitution and the laws, in all the crises and
emergencies of the country. 1t traces the con-
tlict between Federalism and Democracy, and
contends that the Democratic party has always

early portion of the century; he was associate
of Silas Wright; he enjoyed the confidence and
friendship of jackson, Van Buren, Polk, Taylor,
Fillmore, Pierce, and Buchanan, and, probably
better than any man living. is acquainted with
what the internal workings of parties have been
for the last fifty years.
