Ai the period uf polititiciil organisation approaches we are happy to say to our friends throughout the Slate I hut the prospect of a glorious triiuiiiih was nevermore promising. In the doubtful districts the. beat (if fooling prevails, mid we have assurances from several counties where we failed lust year, that iheirs.iccessis now certain. In the North where we have hut much, tin-feeling is greatly changed. The conduct of ihe old Hunker Locolbcoa in Summit has opened the eyes ol thousands ua the votes this fall will show. Nothing hid harmonious and vigorous acthm in necessary to place Ohio where she belongs iu the van of the Whig S'aiea ut' the Union. Whig of Uhio ! Let this bo done ! Locol'oco No iu I initio ii for Fruiikliii. The locolbcoa of this county have adopted thu lol-lovving ticket to be beaten by us this full, viz : For Representative John Hukpman. For Prosecuting Attorney Thomas Si'ahkow. For County Commissioner Monv.tt Skvmouk. For County Infirmary John Kahhuakt. There wasu time of it yesterday when the result wuh Munoiiuced and the ex-Chairmun got leveml miller ie-vere kiiks for the part he had tiikou againil noine of candidate!.

Theae resolutions, ao fur aa they professed to speak on the great and important question of Slavery, were, I venture to auy, uot acceptable or approved by a single Kree Boiler, bona fide, from Northern Ohio To remedy so important an oumaion, or rather, mi i iinni ugly devised an "evasion," Mr. Warner, a member ol said committee, at the united nipieatatid solicitation of Northern free Soil Democrat there present, " reported the following resolutions fur the action of the Coiiveu. tion: " " 1st. Rrsolved, That the Ordinance of 1787, dmlt-d originally by the hand which framed the )cclaniiiii ut IudeenuencH, di-rives its chief exeellnnce bom the Democratic principle developed therein, that of uncompromising hatred to ull tyranny over the body or mind of muu. "2d. Resolved, Thai the principles of said Ordinance cunaervative of freedom, may be extended by Con gresa to all the Territories of the 1'iiilcd Slalea, wilh-uut any violation uf constitutional law. "3d. Resolved, as the senteof the DenuM-ralic patty iu Uhio, that it is both lawful and exp dient that said principles be practically applied to all of said territory with the least poaaihle delay. Two other resolution Were offered by Mr. Wuruer, but were afterwards with- urawn uy mm. j " Mr. V arr, ot Huron, moved to add these resolution of Mr, Warner to those resolutions n'Nirttil by Mr. Edgertoit." After much diiicussiuu and strong opposition, Ihe question was taken on their udoption, and resulted ye.il !)4, nays 174, so the Democrats refused to adopt them, by nearly two to one ' .' And the twelve resolution pre-viously rcKirted were adopted by act Imitation.

She I has led us InuuhiiiL'ly into miserable hovels, ainonv crying babies, and mothers nlmking with the ugue, where limit ami economy have never lieen lodged or fed; and then, as if to make misery more palpably miserable by the contrast, alio wafis us with her magic wiuul iuto aristocratic mansions, among all the adornment of yvialth and refinement.

Delegatefi to the Convention. Wo are able to-duv veVy nearly to complete our list of the delegates elected to the Slate Convention. We havo classified tlietn as Whigs or Democrats, although in not more tluui two or three of the districts did the election turn uain party politics. The Whips, it will oe seen, constitute very nearly a lair proportion ot thu body, notwithstanding Uws cunningly devised anpg"-tuent of the districts, by w tilth it was calculated Lhiil a 0 Riaiority ul thu in would elect democratic dele- Kates exclusively. A sliebt M'rutiny of the list will sat isfy the reader uf the nsjiarkablo fact, that in most of the decidedly Democratic, districts one or more Whigs have been elected, and, on the other hand, many Whig districts have elected a mixed ticket. The Democrat elected from Whig districts will scarcely violate the sentiments of their constituents so far aa to attempt to bend the Convention to any political purpose, and the Whigs, being iu the minority, will liuve no jxiwer to do so. We may, therefore, hopo that the constitution will be revised und remodelled without any relerence whatever to the schemes of this or that political purty. In regard to what are called the reform issues, we believe wo may say that four-fifths of the members ioc i are advocates ol the general principle Unit the a'ople are competent !o the selection of all their a Kent by direct suffrage. How far this principle may beniu-litied in il practical application, will, we presume, be one of (ho principal subjects of the Convention's deli-1 ueratioiis. 1 hut it will be engrailed upon the new constitution, there cuu he no manner of doubl. '1 ho basis question will probably iive rise to as ui ave a division of opinion botweeu tho eastern und western leiuuuies, as it did m Hie convention nl lt9-;ll). Amongst (ho seventy-six gentlemen, elected from the j two eastorn divisions of the State, we believe there ore ! only Jour who will consent tu surrender the mixed ba- i ut represei taliuu. These are Mr. Wise, of Acco mack; Mr, Stewart, ul the fntiiklin distnct; and Messrs. Carter and White, of Loudoun. So lar as we are informed, there is not one of the fifty-nine del galea from the two western divisions who will not main! upon the white basis. Mr. vvruu sou, of Logan, in the last Legislature, declared his conviction that ihe mixed basis, established as a principle, without metes nnd bounds, would ultimately be satisfactory to his people, it is doubtful whether he i elect til tu the Convention, and whether, if elected, he would undertake tu e$l umii his declaration. 1' resuming all the western members to be white-basis men, and all the eastern members, except tour, to be mixed-basis men, the parties will aland divided: for the mixed basts , n For the white busis (ill Majority for ihe roiled basis 0 A minority of nine is fully lar Re enonith to secure the establishment of the mixed basis, and, aa we have bit-fore remarked, we are fully convinced that, if the Con vention will adopt that basis iu ihe constitution, il will be ratified bv a targe inaiorih of the iieople, aud then, H is to be buiied, the question wuuld be dually banish ed iromour popular and temsiiiiive discussions.

EtUal Rights has at leugth bid good-bye to the pub lic, und closed his series; having, as he assures thorn, made us "particularly feverish and excited" made " breaches iu our out works " made usact"liko nil desperate und closely pushed garrisons, lo prevent thetnselvea from being surrounded, and reduced by siege or taken by storm ;" having, also, upon the satnu authority, " exposed our sophistry ami law arguments," und exhibited to iho public that wo ure " not capable of maiutaining the uruuiLiit " on our side; having, also, according to llie same impartial authority, " shown the positions uf thu Journal to be false," ami shown that we have " willully and knowingly attempted to pervert and misrepresent most essentially the priuci plesor platform ol the Deniocrniic party; Unit we ure artful and intriguing political demagogues;" and having found " a fatal passage," which should brum! the Journal with infamy, ur make it the scoff mid the scorn ol every intelligent man," und so forth. Ih is labor he undertook as "one of the most uu- pleasant tusks imposed mam good citizens as a " most imperative duty," which " uo friend of human ity, uo lover of his country " ought to flinch from ; aud under the conviction that " no morbid delicacy should reslruin the intelligent Irom combatting and exposing fraud and dishonorable sophistry. Commencing thus his labors under painful convic tions of public duly, it was natural fur him to suppose that the public would be anxious to hear what pro gress ho was making, and he accordingly has men pied as much apace in each of his numbers as could have beeu reasonably exticcied or htm, in rehearsing the amount of his compiesis and "exposures;" how he hud "excited " ua, aud convicted us of taking fulse m- sitious, ol infamy and Uie like. His coiuniests be- ing over, his public duty performed, he retires from the held, assuring Ihe "editors" of the Journal that he " appreciates its gentlemanly tone, and its courtesy as well as its guarded expressions in commenting on our spiril; and "fully eoHtciou that" he has done his " duty as an humble champton of Equal Rights. Krom all which it would appear that we have borne up uudrr the terrible process, which according to his account, we have been undergoing, with lortilude, and have even treated hiiu with courtesy throughout. We do uot however claim so much merit aa might be ini plied, for had we been fully aware uf the danger of being surrounded aud reduced by siege or takeu by storm, it might have shaken our composure. It may also occur to some as barely Hjtaible thut we were rath er amused and entertained than alarmed und discomposed by his sounding proclamation of war, and gas conading bulletins uf victory iu oilier words, that tve enjoyed the bathos of the tkmg. We have however no statement to make in thai behalf. We leave Equal Rights in the full possession of whatever laurels he may have gained, and it lusreaders consider the " plulloriu bolstered up and saved by his efforts, wo hope they will be duly thankful therefor, aud that they will crown him with foolscap or whutever else they muy deoiu significant of his services. At ull events lei Iheiu be grateful, eveu if Ihey shuuld seem to see if Ihey should have a glimmering (K-rrepiiou that he hud lieeu misled by the smoke aud noise and kick of his gun to overrate the effects produced at the other end of it and thai during all this sonorous cannonade his piece has discharged uoihing more daugeruiia ihau wads; still they ihould beariu mind ll-ut his intentions were good, and that he probably used Uie best ammunition he had. Our series on bard money was commenced and com pleted before Equal Rights said word, and without refrreuce tu controversy with muy one, We did nut intend to put any misconstruction upuu, or make any unfair deductions from their platform, nor ran we now jiereeive that we did so. The platform itself was and is kept standing at Uie head ol our columns, aud would f itself have exosed any deception attempted by us. It is als.i kept standing iu a large portiou of the Whig paHra of Uie State, into which our articles have beeu copied. Why is it not kept up ia Uie I.o ofisro papers T Dam they not stand on it, or under il f This is alone enough to show which jmrty in afraid of the truth, and which desires to meet it boldly, face to face. Our readers may think we have occupied loo much rootu with attention lo Equal Rights; but they will bear in mi ml that, however poorly his charges have been sustained, he m put forward as the champion and trump card of hard money mru, aud we were particu larly challenged by the Statesman to attend to him. Ou tho whole, bisartirlea have furnished a good oppor tunity to say some things we had before omitted. ln taking leave ot that triumphant gentleman, we caituot reciprocate his Ihuuks for courtesy, but we nev- ertheless tcel just as good ualured aa if we could. Were our sense of the ridiculous by several degrees more blunt thsu it is, we might still have enjoyed tho exhibi tion he lias made. We do not by any means overlook the fact that we are to consider ourselves badly and severely hand let I, our character blasted, our bones dis- loo tted and our cause crustn-d but we know also, from tho same Source, that the whole thirg was done under a painful sense of duty, and that, as a " lover ot human ity aud of his country,' he could nol avoid it. How could we harbor malice under such circumstances f He sides, it may relieve him from some portion of the pain he fell at being compelled lo perform that " most uu pleasaul duty," tu observe, that we ate in a measure still happy and hopeful, and iluit it is our sincere wish that after his prodigious delivery he may fiud himself "as well as could be expected.

No says hqnal Rights. Now let us see whether he did or not. We take the following passage from his article No. UL, io which we were replying, and we give the passage entire verbatim, et literatim el ottnrluatim. ' The Hunk of Venice was the first baukinir establish ment iu Europe. It was founded iu 1 17 1, and stihaiiled until the subversion of (ho Hepuhlic in 171(7. It wnaa deposit bank only, and issued no notes. The Batik of Ainaimiiam was esiabliHhrd in lfi()y, and thatot Hum-burg in lfilfJ they were deposit banks only and issued no notes. Yet the conn trios iu which ihey were situated, were the leading commercial Suites of ihe world. The Hunk of England was iucoriornted in 1694, and was the first hi issue bank paper. The wanes did not pnng out ol the nutnral and legitimate wauls of com merce, but out ol the necessities of the government of! great Britain, which had become deeply involved in debt, und which tin-re lore resorted to this artificial menus ot creating wealth. The Hank of Scotland, es-mUished the next year after the Bank of England, was the next Bunk that issued paper money. With these two exceptions (a lew private companies and hankers iu London excepted) they were the only banks that ever issued notes as a circulating medium or money, as a substitute for coin, prior lo the eighteenth century. P"Hr H ey is therefore n modern device, estubliBued to maintain an illegitimate credit. Htnuige to say, the American States have persisted in following this bad example of substituting artificial lor real wealth, without the excuse which existed for it in Great Britain; and in uo country has illegitimate, or paper money banking, proved so disastrous. iiiesuosiauceoi the aliove will hetouud iu Hunt's Merchant's Muguiue uf a late date." t he reader will observe that thuso passage referred to by uh are given by Eqiiul Rights with quotation marks, followed by the assertion that " the substance f theubuve will be found in Hunt's Mi-rebuuis' Maga zine of a lute date." Tims he gives Hunt's Merchants' Mugaine us authority for saying that "Paper monev is therefore a device estaldished to maintain illegitimate credit." thus tie gives Hunt's Merchants' Magazine as authority for the declaration "Strange to say, the American States have persisted in following this bad example of substituting artificial for reul wealth, without the excuse which existed fur it in Great Britain; and iu uo coun try has illegitimate or paper money banking proved so dis astrous." And in the face of all this, after Uie lapse of lint a very few days, Slid white the subject ii fresh in his mind, he turns round and wishes it lo be " distinctly understood that ho dots not, and never did profess to bring the weight of Hunt's Merchants' Magazine at an authority AOAlfT or form pajer circulation. To this end has he cotne at last, who commenced wiih such, and so many gratuitous and unfounded charges of falsehood on us.

Taxes In Connecticut. By a late law, Bank slock and other corporation stock in any State of the Union, owned by persons residing in Connecticut, are made taxable iu Uiat Shite, besides money al interest. So much for recent Democratic st.ccpsa. The Ohio Democracy will effect the same reform. We clip Ihe almve fnuu the Ssnduiky Mirror, the "Organ1 ol that famous Texas Kree Soiler, Signal Taylor. We infer from it that " Democratic success " hits made n new lax law In Connecticut, which said Democratic law taxes property owned by persons living in Counoriicnt, whether said projwrty was in Connecticut or not lu o her words, it impose a tax upon properly twico Ihe same year. It iiniioses double tax ation. Upon the same principle, we suppose that State taxes farms, and horses, Ac., if they are iu other States, and pay taxes in other Stales, where the owner of them hnppeua to reside iu Connecticut. The citizen who tikes a thousand dollars and invests it lu Iowa or Wisconsin lauds tor his children, pays Uxes ou the land in the State where it lies, aud must also pay taxes on it in tnntieciicut. The cilien who owns bank stock in Ohio, that is uied eniirrty mOhio, aud which pays, by the tonus of our law, six per cent, by way of taxes on the profits, to the State of Ohio, must pay taxes again ou such slock iu Connecticut, We don't believe that Connecticut Locofocoiim has done any such thing, and we call for the evidence. It so mntiilestly unjust and improper on the very face of it thai we can't lliiuk eveu Locofocoiaiu has thus played the foul, lo say nothing of the knave. But this u to be matte the law in Ohio! Democra cy, a tier it succeeds in destroying all Uie banks, aud abulishing all the paper circulation; wheu, according to Ouii. 1 1 hurt, il crushes the lubonng classes, and Uie lass of persnus in debt to the very dust ; (hen it is to turu its energies upon this sulqect, and will enaet that ihe citizen iu Ohio, who holds property in any other lace on earth, shall be taxed lor il in Ohio, no matter how heavily he may ul ready have been taxed iu other places on the same pnH-rty. This is to be done in the name of Democracy! Wheth er it is to be the its democracy, or the slave democracy, s not apHiir. 11 ii lu be done. So, look oul for this uew plunk in the democratic platform. The odi ous doctrine of discrimination must be taken iuto favor und adopted by these patriota, or they must tax all plop erty not iu the Slate, and which is ewned by Mrsous residing here.

The Jenny hind fever removal up town her first concertthe new Jenny Lind hall the prize song arrivals from California gold and cholera ihe Custom House. Niw Youk, September?. Since Sunday last public attention bus been centered almost entirely on Jenny Lind. All her movements are recorded and talked about, and just now these form the extensive topic of our citizens. Never has greater interest been manifested to see any personage, who has come to our metropolis, than has been excited by the arrival here of the Swedish Nightingale. The Irving House, for Ihe past few days, has been completely surrounded wiih hundreds of people, all anxious " to get a sight at her, either within the building or as ihe emerges therefrom, to take a ride iu the splendid car nage, perchance itandiug by the door, awaiting her disposal. In fact, to so great au extent hui this gazing been carried, that it has become extremely amazing, and Jenny Liud has decided ou changing her quarters for others at the New York Hotel, lo which she will remove very shortly. This latter being situated much farther up town, is loss public than the Irving House, nnd in it she will, uo doubt, lie enabled to remain more retired thau at present. The first concert will take place on Weduesday eve ning next, at Castle Garden. The price of tickets ia fixed at three dollars, but those for reserved seats will be disposed of by auction, to the highest bidder. The sale of the same will take place to-morrow, and much curiosity is manifested iu respect to ihe sums which these will bring. From the Jenu Lind mania now existing, It need occasion no surprise however, if mauy of these tickets should be sold at prices ranging from fifteen tu thirty dollars, or even higher. The Castle Garden is undergoing extensive repairs, and it is thought that it will be made to seat eight thousand persona couforlably. The building is not well adapted for concerts, but was selected by Miss Lind, after an inspection of ail the others iu our place, which could be procured lor that purpose. The Jenny Lind music ball la rapidly Hearing completion and will betTifished early in October. Workmen are engaged on it night aud day in order to have it ready at the earliest practical moment. This has beeu erected more especially for her use, aud it is a source of regret that it was not commenced a few weeks sooner, so Uiat it could be completed in time for the first concert. The prize ull'ercd by Mr. Barnum uf $200, fur a song to be sung by Jutiny Lind ut her first appearance in our country, appropriate lu the occasion, has been awarded to Mr. Bayard Taylor, one of the editors of the New York Tribune. Upwards of seven hundred pieces of poetry were received, and the committee to whom the matter was intrusted was occupied nearly two days in making, from this large stock, the selection that was requisite. It has been suggested that the rejected pieces should ull he published ; they would form a curious book, aud a novel one, too all its contents being on one nilyVct, and all by different authors. No doubt if a work like this were issued cheap, it would find purchasers iu abuudance. We have had within twenty-four hours the arrivals of three steamers from Cbagres, which brought in all three and a half million dollars in gold dust from California. A mm as large, within a period so limited, has not been received here at any previous time since the new El Dorado began to send ua of its treasure. The news from San Francisco is sufiiciently encouraging, but that from Panama is exceedingly sad and afflictive. The cholera broke out on the passage of the steamer Panama, downwards to that port, and forty passengers died, out of two hundred and forty who were on board when ihe started from Sau Francisco. Such a mortality has, I believe, been equaled in extent in no place in our country siuce Uiis devastating disease began its ravages. We can only hope Uiat it will nut siteod it self to California, where il would, of necessity, be followed by the direst consequences. The immigration from here continues still very small. We can hardly suppose that it will be at all extensive again, until the weather shall become much colder, as parties do not like lu cross the Isthmus at this season. Our importations in August were much less than iu July. This month they will probably be less than in August, the bulk of goods fur the fall trade being mostly now here. Owing to the delay in passing th6 Appropriation bills, by Congress, our sub-treasury sleeps accumulating the gold paid in for duties, aud there are now locked np within the custmn-hnusa over seveu million of dollars in specie! quite withdrawn from circulation, and, fur the moment, perfectly useless. Moiiey it less easy thau It has been, Uiough our Banks do not reject much of the first class paper which is offered to them for discount. There have been several large failures wiUiin a inoulh or six weeks, but we trust that wa have now seen llie end ftf theae, at least for the present. Yours, truly, W. The Month M IriiMrated." The Rev F.dwnrd Smith, the Kree Soil candidate tor Oovuntor, lately made a speech at Paiuesville. The legraph of ihat town, in giving the substance o his speiili, has tho following: The South had alwavs managed to elect the execu tive of llie nation, so thut the Government patronage tuilit be I test owed lo sail lis ptrpoaea, And it had always obtained all Ha demands, and if it I'm led to keep California out of llie Union, ur make it shoe territory, it would W the In si lime that it ever hail been frustrated in its purposes, since ihe organization of the (Jov- eriimeut. Well, California is admitted into the Uniuu, and U is not slavo territory. We suppose the Rev. gentlernaii will now admit that the South has been " trustrnted,' beaten for once by the North.
