A NEW RAILWAY.

The latest idea in trsmways or rail-
roads is that of an English engineer
who has constructed in Turkey an ex-
perimental railway on which the pro-
pelling power is not steam. but animal,
horses or mules being employed. A
single rail is laid on sleepers, and the
carriage has wheels in the centre on the
came longitudinal line. Through the
car runs a balancing pole, the two ends
OF which, projecting three feet or more,
are secured to saddles on the backs of
;he mules. The animals will thus be
one at each side Of the load instead Of
10 front, as ordinarily. 1t would be i'm.
possible for the cart to turn over, be-
cause, in order to do so, in would have
to force one mule to the ground and lift
the other in the air; and, moreover, as
the floor would be only six inches above
the rail, an oyertip would be OF small
account. All the weight in the cart
when evenly distributed, bears upon the
rail. and the animals, having no load or
their backs, are able to exert consider
able traction power.

AT this moment nearly all the prom
inent men OF worth and character IN
the Republican party have Joined
heartily with the Democracy to re-estas-
lish the principles and practice of our
Government, under which it grew and
prospered, till its whole fabric was
shaken by civil war. To restore again
the economy, frugality and integrity OF
a state of peace and civil government is
the object to which every patriot ADD
honest man ought to be willing to CO.
operate. But to Illustrate it all the
thieves add peculators who grow fat
under the license Of war are striving to
perpetuate it in time OF profound peace.
SIMON CAMERON, elected from the War
Department for fragrant corruption in
the hour of his country's peril, is the
leader OF these patriots" aud asks that
ne and his crew shall be allowed to rob
the people in time of peace, because
they robbed the soldier and the Govern
ment in time OF war But to this the
people will reply-you have stolen
enough.

suited their case precisely. The "ris-
ing" that they expect is not likely TO
swell into very astonishing proportions,
and although their vote on the 5th OF
November will doubtless be light
they will probably find on that day
that their cake is still dough. We
purposely refrain from attempting any
pun on the word loafers.
The GRANT committee in this State
is much to blame that this O'CoNoR
Convention resulted in so ridiculous a
failure. A judlcious application OF
funds might have secured the presence
OF representatives from three or four
other counties, without a 1.-THE of the
cost of the Louisville Convention. The
delegates that were assembled were,
We believe, all honest in their conyic-
tons; we don't believe that any Of
them, Notwithstanding tie fact that
their action will help the GRANT cause
if it amounts to anything at all, had
received single dollar of the corrup
ton fund that was used so freely at
Louisville. In this the GRANT man.
ayers in West Virginia have been
strangely remiss, and We would suggest
that the very least they can now be
expected to DO will be to pay the ex-
penses of the electors in canvassing the
State, and "BRIck" PoMERoYs bill for
the speech he has been invited to make.

THE Radicals have leased Washing

have a branch office of the Western
Union telegraph line established in it to
bring them the news OF the coming cleo

The Democrats have leased the Hall
in the third story of the Franklin In

for their headquarters. They will also
have a telegraph wire, and the election

THE late vote for local officers in Del

still in the ascendant in that steady and

the State fast to its Constitutional moor.

James Brooks writes to the New
York EXPIRES" from China: "rhey
tell good story In Pekin of Cover
nor Seward, when here-doubtless a
liz, but too good to DO lost for that.
The expectation of the ex-governor
were doubtless great when he entered
the great capital of this great empire,
with which he had made great
treaty; and he therefore INDUCED In
great expectations Of great well
conc. As he entered the gates of
Pckin, great "2es:.. 80 80 - n was
coming out, with music catafalque,
etc. etc, all as imposing as could well
be made. The governor was entering
with the marine band of the Colora
do, mounted on donkeys, as this
grand procession was going out. The
great living and the great dead
thus met. The governor, naturally
enough, concluded this was In honor
of his grand entrec, and he rose, in
his open sedan chair, and bowed and
then ordered halt, and got cut, and
bowed and bowed again, to the cata-
falque and the dead. The Chinese
think all foreigners, are rather mad,
aud hence did not marvel over ii as
much rs they might but when Gov
ernor Seward found out what he had
done, the story is he was more mad
than pleased.

The legal Distinction between n
bank ehecis and % Ell of Exchange.

AmuAg tho Supreme Court orln-
ions, delivered last Saturday, was one
delivered by Judge Mcfarland, which
IL very highly spoken of by the Bar
aud which sets forth legal principles
of great Importance to tile merchants
and Bankers of Tennessee.
The case decided was that of Her
ring, Hume Il Pettus vs.. ID. q. Kecsee
and others, involving the distinction
between bank checks and inland bills
of exchange. 1t Is held 10y the court
that a paper drawn payable ut lu-
ture day, or SO many days after sight,
does not necessarily establish that IL
Is not check. If 1t IL drawn upon u
bank, or banker, and Is designed by
the parties rs an absolute transfer
and appropriation of SO much. of an
actually existing fund belonging to
the drawerin the hands of the drawee,
1t will in general bc regarded as a
check and not bill Of exchange.
Three days of grace are not allowed
upon checks. They should be pre-
sente,l within reasonable time. II
the drawers Of u check become the
agents Of the holder for It's collection,
aud the check Is left with them for
that purpose, and 1t Is in their possess
sio , upon the day 1t should have been
paid, u demand is unnecessary; pre-
sentiment and demand from them
selves would be but an idle ceremony.
