a large number Of people to that interior
city who intended to participate in the fes-

smiling, ready for any enterprise which
promised healrhfll amusement. TIE large
hospital room was cleared for diners and
dancers. Some kind SOULS had provided an
ample commissary, and Harry White salts
fed the thirsty. For diversion, about half
the Sociables made a short voyage on the
river breathing fresh air. Returning, they
we're refreshed for further hirtations and
dancing. The party was under the direction
of the Misses Buckley, White, Simpson,
Rodgers and Hogan. Mr.. K, L. Buckley,
No. AS. Race street, favored US With atten-

before tie summer is over.

What Should be Done at Baltimore,

What Should be Done at Baltimore
The Washington Capital, which is IN
derstOod to favor the Cincinnati nOmina~
tons, and which usually looks with an
astute and sa@acious eye upon political
movements Of everv description, seems
to as very wide Of the marx when IL adj
vises the Baltimore Convention - take
no positive action on the subject of the
Presidency, and even to abstain from
recommending a candidate, as the wissst
course that could possibly be adopted
Let US consider this matter little.
What was the Democratic Convention
called for? Had the committee any
other object than to give the Democracy
an opportunity through its chosen repre>
sentatiyes to pronounce upon question
Ofvital Importance to the organization as
well as the country? The committee
met on the invitation of the Chairman,
soon after the nominations at ClncIn'
natl. With a discreet and wise reserve
the action of the committee was confined
to appointing the time for holding the
usual Convention The sensible and
judicious men composing the body
did not attempt to PREJUDICE the ques-
tons of which the Convention alone can
properly take cOgnizance, nor did they
in any manner indicate their idividual
preferences, or try to forestall the action
Of the Convention The Democratic
press has generally initiated this wise
reticence A few journals, Ct which the
World Is the chief, have undertaken to
prescribe the action of the Convention
and dictate the course Of the party; but
this error has not been contagious, and
the delegates will meet at Baltimore
prepared to shape their course confOrma-
bly, to the dictates Of sound policy and
the best interests Of the country. They
will have one question only to consider,
to wit: whether to adopt the Cincinnati
nominations or to present third ticket
Before the Convention comes &Ogether
the Judgement of the party will
have been so fully expressed,
and the demand for the adop-
ton Of the Cincinnati ticket Will be so
nearly unanimous that no other course
will be open to the delegates. The primN
airy cOntro ling object of the Convention
Will be to get rid of the odious military
dynasty, and substitute for Grants per-
sonal government an economical, Capa-
BILE, and honest administration and as
the only means to this end, the hearty
endorsement of Horace Greeley and the
Cincinnati platform will follow as a mat
ter of course.
The strange recommendation Of the
Capital Il at the Convention should adj
iourn without decided action, leaving
everything at loose ends, is a reC0mmenda
ton to commit suicide The Democrat.
ic masses have long been accustomed to
take their cue from the acknowledged
leaders of the party Conventions were
inaugurated to gather and announce the
wishes and intentions of the people, and
! the nomination of the Cincinnati ticket
at Baltimore wOuld insure the general
and Jealous support Of the organization
while inaction or indecision would lead
to distraction and division, resulting il
the recollection of Grant by an over
whelming majority.

supposed to have been built at very
early period, 1t is not to be supposed
that anything Of material value to any,
body butan Indian was ever deposited
here with buried Indian. Some be-
Iieying these mounds to contain some
thing of intrinsic value, othe-s being led
by an idle and insatiate curiosity, have
been induced to modest the slumbers Of
those lone and silent beds; but no negro
has stuck spade into one of the mounds.
Il Is fact remarkable that they in the
midst of learning and enlightenment,
should be so ignorant as to give rise to
such an unlimited degeee of superstition;
for woe he unto the coon hunter, or any
other member of the dark persuasion
who may chance to wander that way at
the hour of night when spirits are won't
to walk, for their superstition tempered
imagination sees, as in olden times, their
dusky forms dancing noiselessly around
what was once council fire, now
scarcely ashes, again as then the to ma
hawk is raised in meroeless fury over
the head ola trembling victim.
In the course Of time several excava-
tions have been made into these mounds
/ by different parties Among others, the
| writer Of this sketch, with a few friends,
dug pretty extensively into one of them
with very Indifferent success though,
finding nothing Of any consequence
scarcely. Bat Mr. C. P. Polk, former
owner of the farm on hich are the
farfamed relics of prehistoric greatness,
dug a previous time 70 the depth of about
26 feet, and found great many arrow
heads, Jars, pipe-bowls, tonahawks and
other implements Of stone.

these gentlemen have been eminently

President of New Orleans jackson and

tenance and comfort of man-and by
linking the north and south together in

Gen. Nicely, who is also President of

forms us that the prospects of this road
are encouraging The subject of mar
row gauge roads, is exciting eonsidera-
BILE interest among eastern capitalists
and the Gen. has no doubt of being able
to obtain the iron and equipment for our
Road on favorable terms as soon as the
citizens along the line contribute enough
to complete the road bed, which they
are abundantly able to do. A vigorou,
canvass is about to be commenced alons
the entire line and we think an early
completion of this important road is no
among the improbabilities.

] claim for my invention over all other
presses this: that my gripping blocks
used in pressing are cast in solid blocks,
with steel points therein, which grips the
upright iron bar as soon as the power is
applied, and holds fast As soon as the
power Is taken off the blocks will slide
down the bar perfectly lOsse, ready for
renewal Of hold, virtue which no other
press has. The steel points mentioned
can be taken out and put in at pleasure
by any common smith in the country.
The leaver that use is the common
straight leaver, applied 1irect to the grip
ing blocks, which forces the follower
down on the cotton with great force and
without friction. The working Of the
gripping blocks on main bars forms cons
piete rachel as natural as though they
were cast thereon, rendering Il safe from
slipping. My follower is run up and
down by rope and windlass, so arranged
as to work very easily.
