BROOKLYN has sensation. A local editor
claims to have made wonderful invention in the
shape of ferocious sheet-iron cat, which works
by machinery 1t is armed with terrible claws,
and utters all the alluring and pathetic cries with
which the feline is gifted. Placed on the roof on
d baImy night, and set in operation, it calls about
all the prowling eats for miles around, and one
by one they attack the monster and are instantly
torn in pieces. In the morning the roof and all
the surrounding domain are covered with tufts of
fur, with dislocated claws and tangled fiddle
strings

ALExIs.-Alexis has almost entirely dropped
out of the attention of the people who so recent
ly went crazy with enthusiasm over his presence
among them, so ephemeral is our worship of
I princes and pOtentates. Probably very few knew
what had become of him, until a few days ago,
when the telegraph briefly announced his arrival
at Brazil. Thence the Syetland will move down
the coast, double the cape and come up the OPP
posite side. The next point which he will visit
is San Francisco, concerning which city the
| Grand Duke is said to feel great curiosity. Upon
concluding his visit there, he will sail for the
Sandwich Islands, China and Japan, and thence
to the Siberian coast, where the cruise of the
SHETLAND will terminate. Alexis and bis party
will proceed across his pas dominion by land, and
thus, when they have arrived at the capital, will
have made complete circuit Of the globe.

a spot in the West wherein to found large Eng
fish colony. His present thought is to choose a
site in Minnesota, but he intends to investigate
thoroughly the advantages of different situations
and to pick out that which seems to him best
Mr.. Rodgers means to make his future nome with
the colony, and the persons of whom it is to con-
sist will be actively preparing during his absence
so as to be ready to sail for the United States in
the fall. English papers say that this example is
likely to be followed by other companies of con-
genial persons, if favorable news goes home of the
success of Mr.. Rodgers experiment.

the Presidents brother-in law, although de-

OF the national Government under its adj
mihistration, constitutional liberty prevailed
throughout the country, Individual rights
were protected and prosperity characterized
all our material interest. To restore the
Government to its former condition under
Democratic rule and particularly to re-es-
tablish sound financial policy, of para
mount Importance, personal liberty and de-
Capitalization of power is the first duty of
every citizen; therefore,
Resolved, That the true interests of the
country require the establishment of the
principles, policy and administrave expert .
ence Of the Democratic party.
Resolved, That we cordially invite the
cooperation Of all our fellow-citizens who
are opposed to the pernicious principles and
conduct of affairs of the present admins
ration; who are in favor of the decentrali-
cation Of Government; the remission Of To-
cal self-gOVernment to the several States;
relief from existing taxation by restricting
the expenses of collection and the enOr-
nous expenses of the Government; the in
volatility of personal freedom, and re-
turn those to principles of government which
distinguished the administrations of Jeffer-
son, Madison and Jackson.
Resolved, That local selfgoVernment is a
right inherent to the people and essential
to liberty, that in creating the central gov
ernment with grant of power for general
purposes the people did not surrender their
right, but reserved to themselves the con-
troll of their home affairs; that any attempt
on the part of Congress to interfere under
any preteXt with the full and free exercise
of this right is a uSurpation which the peo-
pie ought not to tolerate, because its tolera-
ton leads to the destruction of the personal
liberties and municipal privileges Of the cit
izen, and the abandonment of all that rem
ders free government valuable.
Resolved, That so far as the Cincinnati
platform agrees with the above principles
set forth, it meets our approval.
Resolved, That we do authorize and in
struCt our State Executive Committee to
unite and cooperate with any other COM
mittee or organization in this State opposed
to the present National Administration.
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to
abide and support the nominees of the
Democratic National Convention.
The Convention adjourned.

CINCINNATI.
Rlshon PurceII ON the intern

Bishop Purcell ON the International.
CINCINNATI, June 26.-The fortieth an
niversary Of St. Xavier's College (CathOliC)
of this city occurred this evening, a class Of
nine graduating The degrees were con-
ferred by Archbishop Purcell, who in ad-
dressing the class took occasion to speak of
the eight hour strikers, trades unions, etc.
He said the demoralizing and destructive
influences of Internatioualism should be
denounced, and would be under a liberal
system Of education. He agreed with
recent writer who believed that trades
unions were detrimental to the laboring
men and every person concerned. With
reference to the eight hour movement, he
said if eight hours were agreed up
on to-day six or four hours might be
demanded tomorrow, for who should set a
limit TO such arrogance and dictation. If
labor said to capital to-day it must have
five dollars, tomorrow it might demand
ten. No government could continue under
such a system. The next cry might yet be
that to possess property was robbery, and
division demanded. Thus every lOafer
and drunkard would require a new subdi-
vision each Saturday night, until there
should be nothing remaining to subdivide.
A remedy for these evils he believed was in
liberal education.

THE deep solicitude manifested by some
of the Radical journals in behalf Of the
Democratic party is extremely touching.
They tell their readers, with fearful visa
ges, that there is imminent danger of the
BALTIMORE Convention doing something
that will destroy the good old party, which
they declared short time ago was not only
dead but buried. OF course their solicit
tude is purely disinterested, and they
would be utterly incOnsOlable if the De-
