Tlio new constitution la udopted by the nuijorily of the ficeinou of tliis S:ato who felt enough, interest in the subject lu attend at the ml In mid vote thereon, last week. On the first or September this instrument guos into opHrotion. On thnt day llio vonorublo iuslru uient will) which Ohio cut end the cooled entry of Slates, in 1802, when wo had within our boundaries about sixty thousand inhabitants, and which bus boon the fundamental rule by which the policy of tbo Slate has been shaped from that period to this, become extinct. It liai done ui a glorious service. Under hs beniticcnt, republican and generous provision, wo havo prospered as no oilier people have prospered. Wo now have two millions of people, mid live hundred millions of dullurs on our tax list. Tu the reflecting, philosophical mind, the spectacle presented by Ohio, on lnat Tuesday, in full of deep and abiding interest. We, the puoplo, have changed our own government. We havo coolly, calmly and voluntarily laid aside our fundamental law, which has no long been the guide of our leg ml ut ion, and we have taken up aud adopted a new code, that in to bo our guide hereafter. Whatever men may think of the features of the new or the old, they have, at nil events, agreed to acquiesce in tlio regular, legal, and plain expression of the popular will. They have ngreed that a Convent ion should be called to form a new system of government. They elected delegates to form that sys-1 tern. They have bad that system submitted tu their! consideration, and after threo months of deliberation, i by a majority of about twolvo thousand, they baveex-presied their opinion at Ihe ballot box that it is best to adopt it. To this decision every true-hearted republican will submit. No matter what may have been bis objections to it, the law has pointed out a way to gather up nod embody public sentiment, utid the great truth, which lies at the foundation of all republics na well as that of all social oigmiizaliou, that the will of the majority must govern, now steps in, anil says to ev-eiy citien of Ohio, that subiuisiion to this will is the only legal or sensible course. Mcu have differed, an freemen may very honestly and properly differ, about the propriety of many of the features in Ihe prnprscd instrument. U is not to be supposed that two millions of freemen will agree with one another on overy question of public poliiy. And where a large number of separate propositions me embodied and presenied in one instrument, and we are culled upon to vote for alt of thein, or none, it excites no surprise to intelligent minds that some persons lind more propositions that they condemn, than they do that they approve, hi twenty separate propositions, there may bo eight that we approve, and if wo could veto for llienf separately we would vole tu adopt them with pleasure; while there may bo twelve that we disapprove, and ngnim-t which, if presented by themselves, we would express our dissent; yet being presented all together, wo lind the twelve objections outweighing the eight acceptable features, and we therefore vote against the whole. The constitution, as a whole, is adopted, aud theie is lie party to offer forcible resistance to its operation. The laws pointed out a way to change one fondamcnlal law, and the instrument now adopted prescribes a way lor chunking any of its feature thiit experience or the practical workings of it shall satisfy Ihe people n quire a change. It is well known to our rentiers that we do not like all the features of this new organic law. We have, from time to lime, expressed our dissent, nud have given our reasons for our opiti'oii. We are just us well satisfied to-day as we have been at any former period, that (ho restrictions on tbo suhjert of improvements will be foil ml disastrous to the bent iuleresls of the Uiate, and that public opinion u ill demand u ebatipe in that res poet. We Know that the rejeciinn of the single district system and the accumulation of poliiitil influence in one or two large counties will be fniind extremely obnoxious, and that Mi feature will be changed. It will require time aud agitation lo bring tl about. But it will be a eon taut and disturbing element in nil flections from this lime onward, till justice is done, and the constiiuiioii bo made to comply with the spirit o be age, and the only true and honest principle of republican representation, h took some years of agitu-lion and an express law of Congress beloi e the States of this Unioit could be divided into separate districts for Congressional representation. And even w hen this law was passed, one or two Slates set it at defiance, and elected under tbo general ticket system. Hut pub lic opinion was brought to bear upon it, aud now rrrrjf State is divided into separate districts. 1 liemnti would be booted down in any Legislature in ihe Union, who should, at this day, propose to go back to tbo euernl ticket system. And so it will be in Ohio. The liL', id Convention, plajitcd themselves nn this plutfonn, aud several Democrats took ihe ssttue ground. Hut party triumphed over patriotism ; and the old exploded system of things was continued, simply und entirely because by it the entire delegation from Hamilton county could be secured to I,oco,hCoism, while, by a fair and proper division, a portion of it would be rep resented by Whigs. Mr. Itcrxftnv sike the woids of truth aud soberness when he told his oitieal brethren that they would me the iny when they would per peirate tbo great injustice of refusing U adopt the mh-gle district system. Several features in our new system nre experiments tu political science. Time alone will determiuo vvholh er they am founded in wisdom or on ilmnllpiiiig nf political charlatanism that is abroad in the earlb at the present day. We have every disposition to give these experiments a fair trial, though wo should have prefer red that this fjpertmentmp should lie performed on foiiii other community. Hut as we are in for it, wo must make the best wo can of it. The real reforms lb-ii are introduced, the election of ollieers by the people, and the lossnl patronage aud power to the Legislature, (which patronage hat been the cause of intrigues nnd bickerings, if not of corruption) will, no doubt, bofuuml beneficial. The restrictions upon corporations lor public improveuionls llio improper attempts to interfere with public stocks the refusal to adopt iho single district system tho unfair aud partisan appoitionment, &c, will bo found impolitic, unwise, and not lit to be made. Wo shall have inure lu say upon this subject hereafter.Cui.uniius and UuiLUcoriit: It All MM I). The t'MUi-cotk Gazette advocates the construction of this rond, and says : " Columbus sees, too, that her readiest way to the mines, as well as to tho productive portion of the Scioto Valley, is through Circleville toClullicothe."

The New 'os nunc Wo think our friend is rather savage against tbo tiow costume, ft will be news to some folks to hear that this reform is an oil-shoot of Fouhieribn. It is possible that this class of persons adopt the change more readily than others, some probably because it is n change. lint we presume it is not their reform. Our opinion is that it rests on its own intriiiMc merits, aud, like railroads, and telegraphs, will bo used because it is an improvement, and not because this or that man invented it. We think tho scripture argument of our correspondent fails, because the new continue is not like thnt of males. It approaches no nearer it than tbo almcs, stockings, and shirts of females now resemblo thnt of males. Hut wo are willing to hear and let our readers hear all that Is said on this subject, on both sides. We are not afraid of the supremacy of oar trutacrs. For tho Ohio State Journal. It would seem, Mr. Editor, that 1 have been mistaken in relation to the pantaloons subject, if certain editorials are to be taken as a (run criterion of public eon- umom. i uiui supposed tliat it was one of llioao wild freaks nf rabid " eomeoiiterium " that would meetwiih but one response from the serious and reflecting portion of community. True, 1 have yet seen no weighty argument in favor of (he innovation. Even the tmuully astuto editor of the Journal has given us an Argument thnt would indicate a dubious cause, or a feeble advocate; the latter iden is inadmissible. Hear him, Mr. Editor! He snvsi " It will come! and whvT Hectiuse every phvsiciiin, every man who is acquainted with anatomy und physiology, is aware that llio present mode of femnlo dress is very injurious to tho human frame, ii Hint a regard to tiealih and comfort require reform. That is tho argument in full exclamation, ititerm- g"ii conimn nnd period. Lei us analyze it.

Hut there isnii army of cditoriuls. ouoted from differ ent papers. That SyraciiHO editors, or that (ireoley, or Gray should advocate ilj.t "reform" is not strange; with them novelty and ultraism nro household god; iprniuni rapping, ami ciairvoyunee turmsii choice nior-:enna fur their columns. I have looked over sumo ei"bt or leu editorials mid extracts from editorials, nnd I find but two arguiuents, one of them I have nlreudy noticed, the oilier is from the "Albany Knickerbocker," and is to this ell'eci; "There was once a prejudice ngaiust white hats, but whiio hats triumphed." Tho argument is conclusive; there is a prejudice ngaiust luilieV pantaloons, therefore ladies' pantaloons will triumph! True, the editor last quoted gives us a specimen of ihe inelliod by w hich this triumph is to he accomplished by rnsifiug its opposers with "old maids," "cynirnl editorn," "rude boys nud big, dirty corner loafers." Now, I protest against uny such altempln In forestall pubic sentiment or slillo its expression. I, lor one, m neiihcr an "old maid," " cynical editor," nor " rude boy," ami though my size may justify the nppellaiion ol " big," I am not a "dirty corner loafer." I sustain, however unworthily in the eslimmion of such a wriler, the relation of n husband, nnd a father, nnd in the name of all those hallowed associations and responsibilities that cluster around that relationship, I enter my protest a;uiiHi such nn incongruous nnd unnatural appropriation ol pnninlooiis, I havo recently rou Au engraving of ihe " fashion " that is lo bo, in an eastern nancr. which in u moment lied to my rrcolleclion what mnv have been the original of Ihe picture. Some thirty years apn a large delegation of Indians visited Washing'ton. One of the chief was accompanied by his squaw, some IS or 'JO years of ago. Mhe was clad in a rid skirl, extending to her knees, wiih pantaloons or pantalets of tn smuo color and materinls, eudiellidied wiih fiiiiL'es an huh ; extending up llm inner senm; the triune orna men ted with little pieces of tin, very much resembling in si .o nnd nppenraiieo those that are souieliuies seen on the ends of shoestrings, making quite n jingling when she wnlkcd, and eliciting quite us much aiteoi in to her understanding us the present followers ol her fashion could hoim to secure by rullles and ribbons. "Comeoiiteiism, i consistent in its advocacy of the mensure.

Hal next lo Mr. Webster, appears to us, Mr. Corwin is onenl our very first orators. A friend of ours who heard lus splendid speech agninst a 'war for conquest with Mexico, describes the manner of the speaker as in the Inchest degree imposing. 'He rose to a hoioht ot grandeur, md our informant, and bis dark eyes flashed like lightning, when be spoke of tho ' guif Termini,' once the boast and pfido of Home, the ' lone mother of dead empires.' The following is in Ihe loftiest style of natural eloquence. ' Sir, I have heard much ami rend somewhat of this gentleman Terminus. Alexander wus a devotee of litis divinity. We have seen tho end of him and bis empire It was said to be au attribute of this god, that he must always advance and never recede. So both republican and imperial Uumu believed.

Sad, very sad are tbo lessons which time has written for us. Through nnd in them nil I see nothing but the inflexible execution of that old law which ordains as eternal thai cardinal rule, ' Thou shalt not covet ihy neighbor's gouds,nor anything that is his.' Since I have lately henid so much about iho dismemberment of Mexico. 1 have looked buck to see how. in the course of events, which some cull 1 rrovidence,' it ban fared with oilier nations who engaged in this work oldii-im-uihi'i-meut. 1 see that in the laiter half of the eighteenth century three poweiful nations, Russia, Austria and Prussia, united in tho dismemberment of Poland.

Since wo bavo occupied tbo -. of Edilor ul the Ohio State Journal, wo havo foib,iueto take any unnecessary part in the contrivance or direction of party movements, and have deemed licit coiTsjio becoming and proper for us for two reason. . In the first place, it is much to be preferred in all cases thnt nothing should take place to provont a fue and full expression of public opinion, whenever such piiilpnpurports to bo oxpressed. Wo havo been coi.leut to await ihe action of the party, in its different foim of organization, and modes of expression, with.-ut any attempt to manufacture opinion for them, lu the next place, we nro comparatively new in our position, and have preferred not to give advice very freely, until we had lime to become well acquainted with lluvmen and phnsesof opinion, indiflerent purls of the State, and not until the activomen of the Whigpurty had become acquainted w itb us well enough lo know that w e neither have, nor .will have any other object or aim iu any such matter than the general good of the parly und the country, irrespective of personal or clique interests. If wo succeed at nil, in the position wo now occupy, our interest in Ihe gciiend aud permanent succors of the Whig party is greater than wo possibly could have in the temporary nKcriidency of any oie interest, lu addition, therefore, lo cotrect piinclple, nnd l the requirements of good fu itb townrds tho whis of different pints of the State, nud of the Co ion, out :i.r.:als lies ci. sriy in the faiihfo! nnd impartial pursuit of iho course indica ted. , It is not necessary, however, to deny that our cen tral position gives favorable opportunities for consultation, and for observation; and that iho Whigs lmvo n right to Ihe benefit, whether that be much or little, of our ohnervuliona. t is apparent that tho question whether our next Slate Convention, to be held in July, shall underlako to express llio preference of the Whigs of the State for o candidate for tho next Presidency, is ono of some moment. Instead therefore of nnswerinc private letters of inquiry upon this subject, wohhall say w hat we have to say openly, to all as to one, mid it may then be taken lor what it is worth. There can bo but one of two good objects for making a nomination this summer : to secure advantage to the party at huge. Tho Country lias become so large, and its population spread over such an immense extent of territory, embracing such n ast variety of interests, that it becomes more apparent at every Presidential election, that the decision must turn more upon the principles of policy wilb which the candidate)! nro identified than upon their nvrre personality. The avidity wiih w Inch wo Americans rush forward to tho future iu a great measure nbseibsull other considerations, oven memory and gratitude for ihe past. It is not likely, therefore, u do tho nominee much good to be brought into thu field, beforo the natino of the emit est is ttsccrtained, or the battle ready to bo fought, ll exposes him tothodiscomfortsniid perplex ities, and disadvantages of battle long before the battle js commenced. He is made lo take his stand in ihe face of the enemy, within range of bis guns, and exposed to a continual fire, long beforo be is nt liberty to charge, or his forces ready lo rally In his support. A prudent (jeucrnl does not advance bis mm upon the field until ho is ready for battle. There is no probabili. ty that n National Convention will be held before another Spring; and consequently, no probability thnt tiny nomination can bo made iu which the friends of nil other candidates will acquiesce before thai time, pro-mature efforts to give prominence to the favorites of particular portions of Iho country, will naturally expose them to tho jealousy or coldness of friends us well ns the altocksnf enemies. So far as the nominee is concerned, wo believe it would be for better for him not to be hurried into the field until tho time of nchon arrives. It should not In forgotten lied the l.ocofocos havo a majority in both branches of Congress ; and if nny one man should bo made so prominent before the next session as to lie generally recognized as the caiididato of the Whigs, tho whole organization and machinery of iho session will be shaped wiih on especial view to his damage. If the Whig candidate should not bo desig nated, tho opposition would necessarily srnlter its attacks among the different candidates in such way us lo amount lo but little more than ordinary patty warfare; hut if Ihey nre n Horded tin oppnrtuniiy to concentrate their warfare upon a single individual, they can brtnu' to hear appliances likely to produce more or less effect upon the reputation of any man, such at tea! ns would require extraordinary vigilance and i-neryy lo contro vertsuch as, iu our opinion, iho interests of un can- lidute would invite him to encounter. Is there anything in the portion of the Whig parly, solutely or relatively, which r- quite an early nomi nation 7 Since (ieneral Taylor's eh clit.n, ami death, aud since the accession of llio present administration, party issues have been absorbed and overborne by Hie paramount importance of the quesiiona arising out of ihe acquisition of ihe new territories. These ar now settled. They relit all parlies usuinb r, but ihe ex ilement is subsiding. The remembrance of iheo fur nishes ihe only temptation to Whig lo disagree with ach other. Asiile Irotn these, there cull be lio ques tion but that the platform of iho present administration is not only acceptable to the Whig parly, but to the 'ountry nt large. There can be no doubt, we ihiuk, but that the cardinal doctrines d Whig policy bio obtaining a stronger bold upon ihe feelings of the countiy I linn ever beforo. ll needs no prophecy to m-o thai those doctrines will triumph. 'I he country is gelling too large its interests ten vast aud varied its popula- iii too intelligent to permit our long being lied down upon ihe narrow, Procrustean bed of Locofocoisiu. W hig principles will triumph. If the Wlos will wisely over look past dillercucc, which it cat) do no good to revive. and cultivate a spirited harmony and unity, if in this pirit they will present ihcir measures distinctly and jealously before iho people, and inauh i if, lit up lo the requirements ol iue measures, not dodging or winc ing tlieiimetves, nor allowing their opponeuls to dodge or higgle, they will triumph. Thesun is not niore suro In rio ihnn ihey are to triumph- ll they hesitate and compromise, and ti niporiso, and quarrel over the past, nud higgle about candidates they will bo beaten cer tainly and bndly beaten. Their measures will be ab sorbed and ndulterntod by Lorolocninn. Hy KankI lersoiitha tariff ami Cass explanations on river nnd hurhov improvements nud "judicious lands," our oppo- ids will dilute and modify iheir policy, and be com pcllcd by public opinion, w iih wlmiever disguises they mny choose to put on, to adopt, substantially, the pres ent Whig policy of the country. They can afford, un r present circumstance, to light in the hushes. Should there be nn election ol President by the peo ple, they havo a decided majority in CongifhS, nnd can lent. They may therefore nttord to scatter and run dilVerent candidates iu dillerent sections of ihe conn try, if they please. They may scatter their votes upon measures in Congress, nnd adopt us many expedients ns possible to prevent the lines being drawn distinctly between great measures of policy. Every Hung indis tinct, every thing sectioiinl is in their favor. Their trump enrd will be to prevent nn oleclfou by the peo pie ; and t this end, to excito jealousies among lugs to fritter awny the session of Congress without making their marks distinctly upon great questions of nntiouul policy; to cultivate third parly organizations; to run sectional cnndiduiett, nud, if possible, to induce the 1 Whigs lo scatter. A failure to elect by the people se cures a Locolnco President, On tho other hand, ihe Whigs must elect hy the people or not nt all. To this ond, there is hut ime expedient course Doily, liroth-hnod, Charily, Courage t Every possible cnuso of bickering and jealousy should be laid aside. Ha who unnecessarily slirs up cnuses of disst union in the Whig ranks, or fails to throw aside minor considerations and speculntivn dogma, for tho sake of union and hnrmo. ny, acts against tbo Whig party. Shoulder to simil iter Whigs should stand through the whole scsmou of Congress, voting in solid phalanx for those great measures in which tbo countiy feels an interest, pressing homo with vigor nnd determination tho questions which divide the two imrtic s, making their issues distinct, and compelling tlio Locofocesto mako iheir mark beating up the bushes, drawing lliem from cover, nud enmpi ling them to nil open held and lair play. What the Whigs wnnt is bold discussion and opnp work to nail their flag to the mast in the broad light nf day, lie fore the whole eopln of the Union, aud to insist ujhui knowing who is fur and who is ngninst it. If this can bo done wo triumph. For (be Whigs a National Convention aeemsindispon' sable, and (herb la no occasion lo bo in a hurry about holding it. Next Spring or Summer is early enough, lu tho mean time let us cultivate the spirit of concession and harmony among ourselves, and bo prepared not only in word, but in spirit, to mute upon tlio mum neo, and muke the campaign such as Wellington mod WEDNESDAY. . 'o speak of " short, sharp und decisivo." In tbo va rious aspects iu which the subject presents itself to us, we can see something to lose and nothing to gain by a State nomination during the present season. The Whigs of tbo Uniou can for Bnmetime yet culiivnte with a great advantage, feelings of brotherhood and amity union for the snko ofihe Union.

POPULAR EDUCATION. 1 he exbibiiion is destined to contribute immensely lo the industrial and practical education of the llriiisb People. The cheap excursion trains from llio country nave unruiy commenced runuiltg yet; nut ll is curiam that a large proportion of iho mechanics, artisans and apprentices of ihe manufacturing towns and districts will spend one or two days each in ihe Palace before it closes. Snpeificiul ns such a view of ils conienis must he.it will have important results. Eath urtisnu will naturally be led lo compare Iho products of his own initio w illl Ihose in the same line from oilier nations. especially the most successful, and will be stimulated to discern nnd master iho point wherein bis own and his neigiioor s ettoris lmvo Hitherto comparatively tail- en. ui n minion wno come to gaze, only a hundred thousand may come with any clear idea ol pmtitiiiH bv tho Imw, and but half of ihoso succeed in carrying back more wisdom than they brought here; yet, even those nre quite nu army, nnd fifty tliotiniid skilled nr- iisans or simrp-eyeii apprentices viewing such an Ex position nrigui nmi going uome to ponder and dream upon it, cniiot tail ol working mil great triumphs. The Hritish mind is more fertile in improvement than in absolute iiienlioii, ns is hero demonstrated, espe cially in Iho department of Machinery; and iho simple niiiipuiiou oi uie lorces now aiiaiueu, uie principles established, tho machines already invented, to all the honiliceiit uses nf which they nro capable, would speedily Innsform the Industrial and Social condition of mankind. I am perfectly satisfied, for example, lhat ooom ami suoes mny no cut out ami maue up hy ma chinery with less than one-fourih the labor now required thnt this would require no absolutely new inven tions, but only an nihpiation of tlmsu ulreadv well known.

There is no rensou lor continuing to sow plain seam ou thick cioiit by nana when machinery can do ihe work even netier nnd twenty umes ns lust. 1 shall bo disappointed if this Exhibition be not speedily followed bv im mense advances in Labor snwug Machinery, especially hi mis country. Hut out ot Ihe domain or Industry, Hritish Progress in Popular Education is halting and pnrlial. Aud the chief obstacle is md n want ol means, nor even ni'r gamiines; lor the uttoti is wealthy, sngacmus and public-spirited. 1 think Iho intliieiiiial classes generally, or nt least very extensively, realize that n well managed system ol Common Schools, siippoited by taxation on Property, would save more iu diminishing the burden of Pauperism ihnn it would cost. I believe Ihe Ministry feel this. And yet Mr. Fox's moiioii looking to such n system wus voted down in ihe House 1 of Common by somo three to one, iho .Ministry wiih Ihoir reliable supporters vicing wuli tho 1 ones in op-posing it t So Ihe Nut ion is thrown back on the wretched shift of Voluntaryism, or Instruction for Iho poor nnd ignorant children to be provided, doe "ted und paid for by their jHior, ignorant and often vicious parents, w ith such help and guidance as self ronsiimud cusiml associations may see fil to give them. Tho result is and will be wind it ever has been and must be ifip virtual denial of Education lo a great share of tho ti-siiiK generation. For this suicidal crime, 1 hold the Episcopal and Roman Catholic Priesthoods mainly lepotisible, but es pecially llio former. If ihey would only stand out of Ihe way, a system of efficient Common Schools for iho wholo Nation might be speedily esiatuidieii. iiutuiey will not nermit it. Hv insisting that no Nationally di red I'd ami so parted system sh.dl be put into operation which docs not recogme nnd nlfirm the lends id' iheir its uec live creeds, tbev render too adoption oi any sys tem impossible.

' knowledge worthless or danger otis without Koliijinn,' Ac, &c. Why, Sirs, it is true that the People need Religious ns well as purely Intellectual culture, but the former has been n I ready provi ded for. You clergymen of tho Established Cluucli have been richly endowed aud beneficed expressly lor this work tray don't yon no iff Why do you stand 1 hero darkening tbo gateway of aooulnr instruction with a self condemning iissuinptiou thnt your own duties have been and are criminally neglected, anil that therefore others shall likewise remain uiipeifoniu-d f Teach tfio children ns much Religion ns you can i very few of you lack pupils when you give your hearts to the work ; and if ihey prove less apt or less capable learners because they have been tnught reading, writing, grammar, geography and arithmetic iu secular schools, it argues some defect iu your theology or its teachers. If you really wnnted tin children taught religious truth, you would be right glad to have them taught letters and pther rudinn ntul lessons elsewhere, so as to bo tit-ted to apprehend and relain your inculcations. It should suffice lor the condemnation of all Established Churches ever more, that the State-paid priesthood ot Great Britain is to-day the chief impediment to a system of Common Schools throughout the Hritish hies. Tho Catholic Clergy have more excuse. They, loo, unite in the impracticable requirement thai the dogmas of Iheir church, mall be taught in the schools attended by the Catholic children, when they ought to teach them these dogmas out of School hours, and be content that no antagonist dogmas are taught in iho secular Schools. Hut Oiey receive nothing from the State, am) have good reason to regard it as hostile to Iheir faith, ; therefore to suspect ils purposes nnd watch narrowly its movements. If they would only take care to havo a good system of Common School educnttoti established and efficiently sustained in Spain, Portugal, Daly, Mexico, and other countries wherein Ihey are the conscience keepers of Ihe great majority aud prm ticnlly omnipotent in ihe sphere of moral and social effort, I could better excuse their unforlunatenttitude here. As it is, the ditTt reuce between I hem and their Stale-paid rivals here seems one of position rather ihnn of principle. And, in apito of either or both, this generation will yet soo common schools free and universal through out this realm. Hut even a your seems long to wait for it.

Tho rido was a delightful ono, the rain Inst evening preventing nny dust from troubling us, anil giving a freshness and frngranco to vegetation thnt were charming to tho denizens nf our hot, dusty cities. The rond from Columbus lo Cincinnati is now nenrly perfect. There are but two short strips of the old flat mil left on'tbe Little Miami Rond. Theso will soon be displaced with Iho heavy T rail, nud ns the rond is leveled up nnd firmly graveled it is almost equal to tho Columbus nud Xenia Rond, which I tnke it is tho model rond, not only of Ohio but of the nation. Im portant change have been made in tho Miami Road. Many curves havo been shortened, Iho grade is made much less, nnd nlong the bunks nf the little Minnti the rond is rnised ubove the reach nf the hih water, that hns at times troubled litem. The business of the rond. I am happy to lenrn, is such ns to cull for nnd justify this expenditure, and the company cannot fail to find their profit in the investment. Theso rends nro now- well managed. Good lime is made, and the officers nre gentlemen who make themselves popular with thi traveling public. The grent excitement to-day bus been the famous liuffah Hunt," on the Queen City Rare Course, oi ihe Kentucky sido, about four miles below iho city Tho Otloe Indians, who nro on Iheir way to the World's Fnir, and who have been performing their sav- nge dance and prw -vows nt Wood's Museum, wero advertised forn hunt after a renl live Hufl'do. The said Ruflalowns bought of Mr. Sat.i.ivant of our city; and wns described as one of the fiercest nud most snvngo nnimals that could bo found. It was posted that Mr. S. had offered a led or three thousand dollars wiih a inonagerio man, that bis Buffalo would kill any lion, tiger, or leopard, in a fnir fight. The dny has been delightful, nud nn immense crowd, estimated, by good judges, nt from ten to fifteen Ihou- snnd, assembled at the ground. Severn! steainbonts took passengers down nnd back for two dimes. The Managers charged fifty cents for admission to the course, nnd nn additional charge of fifty cents for seals. Tho hour having arrived, the Indians, nrincd with bows and arrows, and mounted on horses, all in true Indian stylo, pnruiled for the rlinse. The envious BntTuIn was loosened, but Mislead of starting oil iu a muter, or ma king any snvngo demonstration against his native cue-iniea, ho wnlkcd oil' n short distance and laid down !

Find Concert uf I'nrodl.Hoh nt noil' Miim-iuii, Cincinn ati, June '-if The first concert of M'llo Pahodi came off last even ing nt iho Melodeou. The hall is a splendid one ihe best adapted to music of any in the city. It is cupabti of seating at lenst one thousand persons comfortably About eight hundred were present, comprising, a I should judge from appearances, llio elite of llm Queen City. Iho performance wero received throughout with the warmest approbation, t if course Ptitoni w as the star of tbo evenin?, but there weie others present of no mean magnitude. Tho troupe com-i'ls of four performers Pauoiu, M'llo Amai.u Pa tti. Si uakoscii, tbo pianist, nnd iUirn, the violinist. Sthakosch is an at title xn grent power and merit. We have never heard his superior on tho piano. His " Van-kee DflotUc" with variations, wus one of the best things of the kind wo ever heard, and brought down ihe house decidedly. Hauskh has great command of the violin, und rank high among eminent professors of thnt instrument. Hi" Carnival of Venice " wns well played, but we think we have henrd it performed willl ns strange mid startling varieties as hn used. Kimi i.mas oos up the grotepqiie nnd outre, ill lhat wonderful pro- duclioii of P.iganitii, fully as well as nny performer to whom we havo ever listened, ll struck us that there wns more smooth melody about lUusrit' music than was usual. He is nu flrfMfe of decided merit, Ami wilb SruAKoseii on the piano, he was frequently called out the second lime. M'lle Path is a singer of morn ability limn we ex pected to hour. Sho is smaller than Pahodi and bus not her line, commanding form, but her music was well received ami appreciated by the nudieme. The "drinking song," from "l.uctetui Borgia' was a lino musical piece, nud so well sung as lo be encmed wiih grent applause. She hns a clear musical voice, not of grent power, but well cultivated, and lias a manner that ii easy, natural and winning. In iho last piece, where she sung with Tauodi in the duetto from "Nor ma, she displayed a high order of talent, and fairly divided the laurels with the famous Italian. Pakopi deserves all that has been said of her iu the Eastern papers. We tried to form a true estimate of her merit as compared with Jknnt Lind, and will state the result of our impressions. We will premise by saying that we beard Jknnt Lind in the National Theatre, which, it is agreed, is not well adapted to singing, and tbut on both occasions we sat wiiliia ,'lu feet of her. At the Melodeou, last oveniug, our seat wns near the back part of tho house, not too far to hear every tone of tho music, but too far to catch the expression of P.vuont's countenance. It is very possible that the different ptuccs of singing nnd the different positions wo occupied mny have bad some effect on our mind, and that a change of place by theso eminent singers might modify or change our impressions Indeed, It Is moro than possible that such would be tho case. But to proceed: On the lower part of the scale Parodi has fully as much forco as Jknny Lind, but upon the highor notes, and in power to fill tho vast hall with melody, she is not her equal, and we nover expect to hear a singer who has J knn vs power in thnt respect. Slill, she docs not appear to full in ihis part, by any means. She sustained herself remarkably well, and if we had not heard Jknnt Lind, we ihiuk she would have ranked first in our judgment for strength and power of voice. If she has Iho ability to soar awny on tlio nightingale notes, and warble like a bird on tlio clear, high key that, with JtftNY, is so rematkuble, she did not exhibit it lnat evening. Condor compels us to say that, with the exception of the bird like parts of Jknnt's singing, we thought Pa-noDi had tlio advantage- of her in melody, or pure richness of tone, which wo can feel, but which we have no terms nt our command to express. Pauodi is a most accomplished singer, and hns improved upon a naturally rich, melodious voice, hy bringing to bor service all Ihe appliances of art. She is a splendid woman, of miller more than medium size, taller and larger than Jknnt Lind, and, we should think from her appearance at the distance we sat, something of Jinny's build about the chest nnd shoulders. She Is fuller in form and face thnn Jennt was nt Cincinnati, and has not her pure white, Northern skin, but more of the Italinn brunette. Wehopo to get near enough to sco Iho color of her eyes, aud the expression of her faco, at hor second and last concert, to-night. We know nothing of her enrly history or character, and, of course, there was no imagination or romance to dnzzle the fancy, or usurp the judgment in this case. It is difficult, always, to doterrnine how much effect these things have upon our opinions of persons upon whom wo aro called to Bit in jugment. With Jenny Lind, overy thing in her history and career was an appeal in her favor. Tho poor Swedish girl, struggling against nov- orly and the ndvire of friends alone in a foreign land, with nothing to give prestige to her nnme, but every iliing but her genius and power against her rising by merit ufono lo an eminence from whence she may look down upon iho reputation of even llm most eminent artiifsaud added lo this, a purity of life, and simplicity of deportment, and warm sympathy with tho distressed and needy every w here all lliese things com bined, throw around her a halo of glory that cannot bo entirely forgotten when we hear her sing, and attempt to form a correct estimate of her merits simply as au artiste. No man ol proper feelings can attend a concert of Jenny Lino's without a slrong pre disposi tion in her favor, and in Ihe very best state of niiud to bo pi on sell. With Parodi, none of these things exist, so far as we know, to warp the judgment. She is an Italian Opera singer. Personally, she is attrnclive pcihop more so than Jkjjny Lind. Rut it is our impression that if an ntire stranger to tho life nud career of both, were to hear them on the tame evening, he would be troubled to tell which wus the greatest artiste. He would, if ho agreed with us, Bny that Ji-.nny had greater versatility if genius bnd more power, especially on the high notes, but that Pahodi had more liquid melody of expression, with by no menus a perceptible want of pow er, nnd cultivation. Wo give it as our opinion that she is uo menu rival of tho fnir Swede, and is nn artiste miiieidly deserving tbo high chnrncter sho hat won. We trust our musicnl friends will miss no cenvenient qqiorlunity to hear her sing. It is possible that our near position to Jknnt Lind, at her concerts, where she was obliged to exert herself to fill iho vast hull of ihe Theatre, had tho effect to in jnro the melody, and liquid richness of her tones. We desired to hear her from ihe back part of the room to sco what effect distance would have upon uur hnpres sioiis. And it may be that, by heaiing Parodi with our seat as clo?e to her as was uir seat to Jknny, we may reverse our judgment, both on the score of power and melody. If such shall be the result, wo will make all uecded corrections. We have read in the papers of the deep passion and em rgy of soul wiih which Parodi enters into ihe per lorinauce or the gem of the gn at Iialian mnsiers. Wo saw nothing of this. We saw graceful, appropriate positions, and elegant demeanor, but nothing lhat attract ed peculiar attention. So much for Mm chapter on Pahodi. The " H'hoys," who though! themselves humbugged by tho Bulhilo bunt yesterday, and to which I referred iu my last, ufter parading the principal streets, drew up In front of Wood's Museum, and manifested decided symphunsof gelling up a regular mob. They were determined to take iho dend Buffalo up two flight of sluirs, and lay him out on the stage uf the L-cluro room. But ihe Mayor utid police interfered, and marched some dozen of ihe riug-leadi rs to jail, when oitler was restored, and iho crowd dispersed. There was the right kind of material for a real tear-down mob, nud for some time we thought they would get poses-sioii of the Museum, ami destroy every thing in it. But the prompt nnd energetic conduct of iho city authority cru-hed it iu ihe bud. Some five or six thousand people were gathered around Ihe Museum at the corner of Wid ui it and Fifih. A lit I lo fun at Iho expense of the getters up of this affair would have been well received, hecanso every, body who went felt hadly bored, (tec were not among litem) and turning ihe talk and laugh on somebody else was ull legitimate. Further thnn this was wrong. We do not see how the managers were in the fault. They hud the Buffalo and the Indians and the people, in vast crowds, came in witness the scene. But ihe Buffalo would not fight, and there was no help for it. He exhaust d bis pugnacious propensities by kirking Prof. Itainey over, ll.o tiny previous. That will be ihe only recoid be will leave of bis prowess, and from ihe general talk about this item, wo think it will last ss long ns a common sin d tomb stone. Tiir Editor. I'sTWfMldl A Co., the popular western batter, have just ini rod need something new in the styloid hats tor summer. The Cincinnati Gazette bos the following notice : ' Dodh's Nfw Hat, the Parodi style, is producing quite a sensation among the young men.

Tlio new constitution la udopted by the nuijorily of the ficeinou of tliis S:ato who felt enough, interest in the subject lu attend at the ml In mid vote thereon, last week. On the first or September this instrument guos into opHrotion. On thnt day llio vonorublo iuslru uient will) which Ohio cut end the cooled entry of Slates, in 1802, when wo had within our boundaries about sixty thousand inhabitants, and which bus boon the fundamental rule by which the policy of tbo Slate has been shaped from that period to this, become extinct. It liai done ui a glorious service. Under hs beniticcnt, republican and generous provision, wo havo prospered as no oilier people have prospered. Wo now have two millions of people, mid live hundred millions of dullurs on our tax list. Tu the reflecting, philosophical mind, the spectacle presented by Ohio, on lnat Tuesday, in full of deep and abiding interest. We, the puoplo, have changed our own government. We havo coolly, calmly and voluntarily laid aside our fundamental law, which has no long been the guide of our leg ml ut ion, and we have taken up aud adopted a new code, that in to bo our guide hereafter. Whatever men may think of the features of the new or the old, they have, at nil events, agreed to acquiesce in tlio regular, legal, and plain expression of the popular will. They have ngreed that a Convent ion should be called to form a new system of government. They elected delegates to form that sys-1 tern. They have bad that system submitted tu their! consideration, and after threo months of deliberation, i by a majority of about twolvo thousand, they baveex-presied their opinion at Ihe ballot box that it is best to adopt it. To this decision every true-hearted republican will submit. No matter what may have been bis objections to it, the law has pointed out a way to gather up nod embody public sentiment, utid the great truth, which lies at the foundation of all republics na well as that of all social oigmiizaliou, that the will of the majority must govern, now steps in, anil says to ev-eiy citien of Ohio, that subiuisiion to this will is the only legal or sensible course. Mcu have differed, an freemen may very honestly and properly differ, about the propriety of many of the features in Ihe prnprscd instrument. U is not to be supposed that two millions of freemen will agree with one another on overy question of public poliiy. And where a large number of separate propositions me embodied and presenied in one instrument, and we are culled upon to vote for alt of thein, or none, it excites no surprise to intelligent minds that some persons lind more propositions that they condemn, than they do that they approve, hi twenty separate propositions, there may bo eight that we approve, and if wo could veto for llienf separately we would vole tu adopt them with pleasure; while there may bo twelve that we disapprove, and ngnim-t which, if presented by themselves, we would express our dissent; yet being presented all together, wo lind the twelve objections outweighing the eight acceptable features, and we therefore vote against the whole. The constitution, as a whole, is adopted, aud theie is lie party to offer forcible resistance to its operation. The laws pointed out a way to change one fondamcnlal law, and the instrument now adopted prescribes a way lor chunking any of its feature thiit experience or the practical workings of it shall satisfy Ihe people n quire a change. It is well known to our rentiers that we do not like all the features of this new organic law. We have, from time to lime, expressed our dissent, nud have given our reasons for our opiti'oii. We are just us well satisfied to-day as we have been at any former period, that (ho restrictions on tbo suhjert of improvements will be foil ml disastrous to the bent iuleresls of the Uiate, and that public opinion u ill demand u ebatipe in that res poet. We Know that the rejeciinn of the single district system and the accumulation of poliiitil influence in one or two large counties will be fniind extremely obnoxious, and that Mi feature will be changed. It will require time aud agitation lo bring tl about. But it will be a eon taut and disturbing element in nil flections from this lime onward, till justice is done, and the constiiuiioii bo made to comply with the spirit o be age, and the only true and honest principle of republican representation, h took some years of agitu-lion and an express law of Congress beloi e the States of this Unioit could be divided into separate districts for Congressional representation. And even w hen this law was passed, one or two Slates set it at defiance, and elected under tbo general ticket system. Hut pub lic opinion was brought to bear upon it, aud now rrrrjf State is divided into separate districts. 1 liemnti would be booted down in any Legislature in ihe Union, who should, at this day, propose to go back to tbo euernl ticket system. And so it will be in Ohio. The liL', id Convention, plajitcd themselves nn this plutfonn, aud several Democrats took ihe ssttue ground. Hut party triumphed over patriotism ; and the old exploded system of things was continued, simply und entirely because by it the entire delegation from Hamilton county could be secured to I,oco,hCoism, while, by a fair and proper division, a portion of it would be rep resented by Whigs. Mr. Itcrxftnv sike the woids of truth aud soberness when he told his oitieal brethren that they would me the iny when they would per peirate tbo great injustice of refusing U adopt the mh-gle district system. Several features in our new system nre experiments tu political science. Time alone will determiuo vvholh er they am founded in wisdom or on ilmnllpiiiig nf political charlatanism that is abroad in the earlb at the present day. We have every disposition to give these experiments a fair trial, though wo should have prefer red that this fjpertmentmp should lie performed on foiiii other community. Hut as we are in for it, wo must make the best wo can of it. The real reforms lb-ii are introduced, the election of ollieers by the people, and the lossnl patronage aud power to the Legislature, (which patronage hat been the cause of intrigues nnd bickerings, if not of corruption) will, no doubt, bofuuml beneficial. The restrictions upon corporations lor public improveuionls llio improper attempts to interfere with public stocks the refusal to adopt iho single district system tho unfair aud partisan appoitionment, &c, will bo found impolitic, unwise, and not lit to be made. Wo shall have inure lu say upon this subject hereafter.Cui.uniius and UuiLUcoriit: It All MM I). The t'MUi-cotk Gazette advocates the construction of this rond, and says : " Columbus sees, too, that her readiest way to the mines, as well as to tho productive portion of the Scioto Valley, is through Circleville toClullicothe." Not only this ciiy, but Cleveland must also see the tie. cessily of such a road, for the Scioto and Hocking Valley road, continued through Lancaster to Newark, and so on to Sandusky, Is a different gauge from the other roads in the State, and freight once on that could not be put on auy other road without reloading, which, for such an article as coal, would bo rather expensive. With the Gazette, we say, "We confidently expect that, ere long, some earnest movement will be made in view of tbo grand project." " Wood.

The New 'os nunc Wo think our friend is rather savage against tbo tiow costume, ft will be news to some folks to hear that this reform is an oil-shoot of Fouhieribn. It is possible that this class of persons adopt the change more readily than others, some probably because it is n change. lint we presume it is not their reform. Our opinion is that it rests on its own intriiiMc merits, aud, like railroads, and telegraphs, will bo used because it is an improvement, and not because this or that man invented it. We think tho scripture argument of our correspondent fails, because the new continue is not like thnt of males. It approaches no nearer it than tbo almcs, stockings, and shirts of females now resemblo thnt of males. Hut wo are willing to hear and let our readers hear all that Is said on this subject, on both sides. We are not afraid of the supremacy of oar trutacrs. For tho Ohio State Journal. It would seem, Mr. Editor, that 1 have been mistaken in relation to the pantaloons subject, if certain editorials are to be taken as a (run criterion of public eon- umom. i uiui supposed tliat it was one of llioao wild freaks nf rabid " eomeoiiterium " that would meetwiih but one response from the serious and reflecting portion of community. True, 1 have yet seen no weighty argument in favor of (he innovation. Even the tmuully astuto editor of the Journal has given us an Argument thnt would indicate a dubious cause, or a feeble advocate; the latter iden is inadmissible. Hear him, Mr. Editor! He snvsi " It will come! and whvT Hectiuse every phvsiciiin, every man who is acquainted with anatomy und physiology, is aware that llio present mode of femnlo dress is very injurious to tho human frame, ii Hint a regard to tiealih and comfort require reform.

That SyraciiHO editors, or that (ireoley, or Gray should advocate ilj.t "reform" is not strange; with them novelty and ultraism nro household god; iprniuni rapping, ami ciairvoyunee turmsii choice nior-:enna fur their columns. I have looked over sumo ei"bt or leu editorials mid extracts from editorials, nnd I find but two arguiuents, one of them I have nlreudy noticed, the oilier is from the "Albany Knickerbocker," and is to this ell'eci; "There was once a prejudice ngaiust white hats, but whiio hats triumphed." Tho argument is conclusive; there is a prejudice ngaiust luilieV pantaloons, therefore ladies' pantaloons will triumph! True, the editor last quoted gives us a specimen of ihe inelliod by w hich this triumph is to he accomplished by rnsifiug its opposers with "old maids," "cynirnl editorn," "rude boys nud big, dirty corner loafers." Now, I protest against uny such altempln In forestall pubic sentiment or slillo its expression. I, lor one, m neiihcr an "old maid," " cynical editor," nor " rude boy," ami though my size may justify the nppellaiion ol " big," I am not a "dirty corner loafer." I sustain, however unworthily in the eslimmion of such a wriler, the relation of n husband, nnd a father, nnd in the name of all those hallowed associations and responsibilities that cluster around that relationship, I enter my protest a;uiiHi such nn incongruous nnd unnatural appropriation ol pnninlooiis, I havo recently rou Au engraving of ihe " fashion " that is lo bo, in an eastern nancr. which in u moment lied to my rrcolleclion what mnv have been the original of Ihe picture. Some thirty years apn a large delegation of Indians visited Washing'ton. One of the chief was accompanied by his squaw, some IS or 'JO years of ago.

Hal next lo Mr. Webster, appears to us, Mr. Corwin is onenl our very first orators. A friend of ours who heard lus splendid speech agninst a 'war for conquest with Mexico, describes the manner of the speaker as in the Inchest degree imposing. 'He rose to a hoioht ot grandeur, md our informant, and bis dark eyes flashed like lightning, when be spoke of tho ' guif Termini,' once the boast and pfido of Home, the ' lone mother of dead empires.' The following is in Ihe loftiest style of natural eloquence. ' Sir, I have heard much ami rend somewhat of this gentleman Terminus. Alexander wus a devotee of litis divinity. We have seen tho end of him and bis empire It was said to be au attribute of this god, that he must always advance and never recede. So both republican and imperial Uumu believed.

Sad, very sad are tbo lessons which time has written for us.

Since wo bavo occupied tbo -. of Edilor ul the Ohio State Journal, wo havo foib,iueto take any unnecessary part in the contrivance or direction of party movements, and have deemed licit coiTsjio becoming and proper for us for two reason. . In the first place, it is much to be preferred in all cases thnt nothing should take place to provont a fue and full expression of public opinion, whenever such piiilpnpurports to bo oxpressed. Wo havo been coi.leut to await ihe action of the party, in its different foim of organization, and modes of expression, with.-ut any attempt to manufacture opinion for them, lu the next place, we nro comparatively new in our position, and have preferred not to give advice very freely, until we had lime to become well acquainted with lluvmen and phnsesof opinion, indiflerent purls of the State, and not until the activomen of the Whigpurty had become acquainted w itb us well enough lo know that w e neither have, nor .will have any other object or aim iu any such matter than the general good of the parly und the country, irrespective of personal or clique interests. If wo succeed at nil, in the position wo now occupy, our interest in Ihe gciiend aud permanent succors of the Whig party is greater than wo possibly could have in the temporary nKcriidency of any oie interest, lu addition, therefore, lo cotrect piinclple, nnd l the requirements of good fu itb townrds tho whis of different pints of the State, nud of the Co ion, out :i.r.:als lies ci. sriy in the faiihfo! nnd impartial pursuit of iho course indica ted. , It is not necessary, however, to deny that our cen tral position gives favorable opportunities for consultation, and for observation; and that iho Whigs lmvo n right to Ihe benefit, whether that be much or little, of our ohnervuliona. t is apparent that tho question whether our next Slate Convention, to be held in July, shall underlako to express llio preference of the Whigs of the State for o candidate for tho next Presidency, is ono of some moment. Instead therefore of nnswerinc private letters of inquiry upon this subject, wohhall say w hat we have to say openly, to all as to one, mid it may then be taken lor what it is worth. There can bo but one of two good objects for making a nomination this summer : to secure advantage to the party at huge. Tho Country lias become so large, and its population spread over such an immense extent of territory, embracing such n ast variety of interests, that it becomes more apparent at every Presidential election, that the decision must turn more upon the principles of policy wilb which the candidate)! nro identified than upon their nvrre personality. The avidity wiih w Inch wo Americans rush forward to tho future iu a great measure nbseibsull other considerations, oven memory and gratitude for ihe past. It is not likely, therefore, u do tho nominee much good to be brought into thu field, beforo the natino of the emit est is ttsccrtained, or the battle ready to bo fought, ll exposes him tothodiscomfortsniid perplex ities, and disadvantages of battle long before the battle js commenced. He is made lo take his stand in ihe face of the enemy, within range of bis guns, and exposed to a continual fire, long beforo be is nt liberty to charge, or his forces ready lo rally In his support. A prudent (jeucrnl does not advance bis mm upon the field until ho is ready for battle. There is no probabili. ty that n National Convention will be held before another Spring; and consequently, no probability thnt tiny nomination can bo made iu which the friends of nil other candidates will acquiesce before thai time, pro-mature efforts to give prominence to the favorites of particular portions of Iho country, will naturally expose them to tho jealousy or coldness of friends us well ns the altocksnf enemies. So far as the nominee is concerned, wo believe it would be for better for him not to be hurried into the field until tho time of nchon arrives. It should not In forgotten lied the l.ocofocos havo a majority in both branches of Congress ; and if nny one man should bo made so prominent before the next session as to lie generally recognized as the caiididato of the Whigs, tho whole organization and machinery of iho session will be shaped wiih on especial view to his damage. If the Whig candidate should not bo desig nated, tho opposition would necessarily srnlter its attacks among the different candidates in such way us lo amount lo but little more than ordinary patty warfare; hut if Ihey nre n Horded tin oppnrtuniiy to concentrate their warfare upon a single individual, they can brtnu' to hear appliances likely to produce more or less effect upon the reputation of any man, such at tea! ns would require extraordinary vigilance and i-neryy lo contro vertsuch as, iu our opinion, iho interests of un can- lidute would invite him to encounter. Is there anything in the portion of the Whig parly, solutely or relatively, which r- quite an early nomi nation 7 Since (ieneral Taylor's eh clit.n, ami death, aud since the accession of llio present administration, party issues have been absorbed and overborne by Hie paramount importance of the quesiiona arising out of ihe acquisition of ihe new territories. These ar now settled. They relit all parlies usuinb r, but ihe ex ilement is subsiding. The remembrance of iheo fur nishes ihe only temptation to Whig lo disagree with ach other. Asiile Irotn these, there cull be lio ques tion but that the platform of iho present administration is not only acceptable to the Whig parly, but to the 'ountry nt large. There can be no doubt, we ihiuk, but that the cardinal doctrines d Whig policy bio obtaining a stronger bold upon ihe feelings of the countiy I linn ever beforo. ll needs no prophecy to m-o thai those doctrines will triumph. 'I he country is gelling too large its interests ten vast aud varied its popula- iii too intelligent to permit our long being lied down upon ihe narrow, Procrustean bed of Locofocoisiu. W hig principles will triumph. If the Wlos will wisely over look past dillercucc, which it cat) do no good to revive. and cultivate a spirited harmony and unity, if in this pirit they will present ihcir measures distinctly and jealously before iho people, and inauh i if, lit up lo the requirements ol iue measures, not dodging or winc ing tlieiimetves, nor allowing their opponeuls to dodge or higgle, they will triumph. Thesun is not niore suro In rio ihnn ihey are to triumph- ll they hesitate and compromise, and ti niporiso, and quarrel over the past, nud higgle about candidates they will bo beaten cer tainly and bndly beaten.

They can afford, un r present circumstance, to light in the hushes. Should there be nn election ol President by the peo ple, they havo a decided majority in CongifhS, nnd can lent. They may therefore nttord to scatter and run dilVerent candidates iu dillerent sections of ihe conn try, if they please. They may scatter their votes upon measures in Congress, nnd adopt us many expedients ns possible to prevent the lines being drawn distinctly between great measures of policy. Every Hung indis tinct, every thing sectioiinl is in their favor. Their trump enrd will be to prevent nn oleclfou by the peo pie ; and t this end, to excito jealousies among lugs to fritter awny the session of Congress without making their marks distinctly upon great questions of nntiouul policy; to cultivate third parly organizations; to run sectional cnndiduiett, nud, if possible, to induce the 1 Whigs lo scatter. A failure to elect by the people se cures a Locolnco President, On tho other hand, ihe Whigs must elect hy the people or not nt all. To this ond, there is hut ime expedient course Doily, liroth-hnod, Charily, Courage t Every possible cnuso of bickering and jealousy should be laid aside. Ha who unnecessarily slirs up cnuses of disst union in the Whig ranks, or fails to throw aside minor considerations and speculntivn dogma, for tho sake of union and hnrmo. ny, acts against tbo Whig party. Shoulder to simil iter Whigs should stand through the whole scsmou of Congress, voting in solid phalanx for those great measures in which tbo countiy feels an interest, pressing homo with vigor nnd determination tho questions which divide the two imrtic s, making their issues distinct, and compelling tlio Locofocesto mako iheir mark beating up the bushes, drawing lliem from cover, nud enmpi ling them to nil open held and lair play. What the Whigs wnnt is bold discussion and opnp work to nail their flag to the mast in the broad light nf day, lie fore the whole eopln of the Union, aud to insist ujhui knowing who is fur and who is ngninst it. If this can bo done wo triumph. For (be Whigs a National Convention aeemsindispon' sable, and (herb la no occasion lo bo in a hurry about holding it.

In tbo va rious aspects iu which the subject presents itself to us, we can see something to lose and nothing to gain by a State nomination during the present season.

Tho result is and will be wind it ever has been and must be ifip virtual denial of Education lo a great share of tho ti-siiiK generation. For this suicidal crime, 1 hold the Episcopal and Roman Catholic Priesthoods mainly lepotisible, but es pecially llio former.

Why, Sirs, it is true that the People need Religious ns well as purely Intellectual culture, but the former has been n I ready provi ded for. You clergymen of tho Established Cluucli have been richly endowed aud beneficed expressly lor this work tray don't yon no iff Why do you stand 1 hero darkening tbo gateway of aooulnr instruction with a self condemning iissuinptiou thnt your own duties have been and are criminally neglected, anil that therefore others shall likewise remain uiipeifoniu-d f Teach tfio children ns much Religion ns you can i very few of you lack pupils when you give your hearts to the work ; and if ihey prove less apt or less capable learners because they have been tnught reading, writing, grammar, geography and arithmetic iu secular schools, it argues some defect iu your theology or its teachers. If you really wnnted tin children taught religious truth, you would be right glad to have them taught letters and pther rudinn ntul lessons elsewhere, so as to bo tit-ted to apprehend and relain your inculcations. It should suffice lor the condemnation of all Established Churches ever more, that the State-paid priesthood ot Great Britain is to-day the chief impediment to a system of Common Schools throughout the Hritish hies. Tho Catholic Clergy have more excuse. They, loo, unite in the impracticable requirement thai the dogmas of Iheir church, mall be taught in the schools attended by the Catholic children, when they ought to teach them these dogmas out of School hours, and be content that no antagonist dogmas are taught in iho secular Schools. Hut Oiey receive nothing from the State, am) have good reason to regard it as hostile to Iheir faith, ; therefore to suspect ils purposes nnd watch narrowly its movements. If they would only take care to havo a good system of Common School educnttoti established and efficiently sustained in Spain, Portugal, Daly, Mexico, and other countries wherein Ihey are the conscience keepers of Ihe great majority aud prm ticnlly omnipotent in ihe sphere of moral and social effort, I could better excuse their unforlunatenttitude here. As it is, the ditTt reuce between I hem and their Stale-paid rivals here seems one of position rather ihnn of principle. And, in apito of either or both, this generation will yet soo common schools free and universal through out this realm. Hut even a your seems long to wait for it.

We have Imd tolerably fair, pleasant weather for some time until tho Inst two days, when clouds, chilly winds and occasion nl rain hnvo returned. The 'oldest inhabitant' don't remember siirh wenther at this seasonas he probaldy observed Inst June. I shall gladly leave it for dryer air and brighter skies. ti. o. THURSDAY . JUNE 2h 1851. (Kditorlnl Corneonilcncc of tho Journal Trip to Cincinnati, Ac. Cincinnati, June 01 I arrived in the fjueen Cily this morning, in six hours from the Capital. Tho rido was a delightful ono, the rain Inst evening preventing nny dust from troubling us, anil giving a freshness and frngranco to vegetation thnt were charming to tho denizens nf our hot, dusty cities. The rond from Columbus lo Cincinnati is now nenrly perfect. There are but two short strips of the old flat mil left on'tbe Little Miami Rond. Theso will soon be displaced with Iho heavy T rail, nud ns the rond is leveled up nnd firmly graveled it is almost equal to tho Columbus nud Xenia Rond, which I tnke it is tho model rond, not only of Ohio but of the nation. Im portant change have been made in tho Miami Road. Many curves havo been shortened, Iho grade is made much less, nnd nlong the bunks nf the little Minnti the rond is rnised ubove the reach nf the hih water, that hns at times troubled litem. The business of the rond. I am happy to lenrn, is such ns to cull for nnd justify this expenditure, and the company cannot fail to find their profit in the investment. Theso rends nro now- well managed. Good lime is made, and the officers nre gentlemen who make themselves popular with thi traveling public. The grent excitement to-day bus been the famous liuffah Hunt," on the Queen City Rare Course, oi ihe Kentucky sido, about four miles below iho city Tho Otloe Indians, who nro on Iheir way to the World's Fnir, and who have been performing their sav- nge dance and prw -vows nt Wood's Museum, wero advertised forn hunt after a renl live Hufl'do. The said Ruflalowns bought of Mr. Sat.i.ivant of our city; and wns described as one of the fiercest nud most snvngo nnimals that could bo found. It was posted that Mr. S. had offered a led or three thousand dollars wiih a inonagerio man, that bis Buffalo would kill any lion, tiger, or leopard, in a fnir fight. The dny has been delightful, nud nn immense crowd, estimated, by good judges, nt from ten to fifteen Ihou- snnd, assembled at the ground. Severn! steainbonts took passengers down nnd back for two dimes. The Managers charged fifty cents for admission to the course, nnd nn additional charge of fifty cents for seals. Tho hour having arrived, the Indians, nrincd with bows and arrows, and mounted on horses, all in true Indian stylo, pnruiled for the rlinse. The envious BntTuIn was loosened, but Mislead of starting oil iu a muter, or ma king any snvngo demonstration against his native cue-iniea, ho wnlkcd oil' n short distance and laid down ! This was very uuromnulic, Tho Indians approached b i in and shot somo arrows into fits side, upon w Inch fu picked himself up nnd manifested n slight sense of pain, by shaking his head nnd moving ull at a short distance. The Indians then shot a few more arrows at him, ami one of litem penetrated half its length iulohi side. 11 concluded to die a martyr nnd leave revenge to some one else, so ho laid down again, when tho crowd broke over the ring and surreinied him to witness his last struggles. The Indians finding there wns no sport for them or anybody rise b it the held lo tho H hoys, nnd returned. As the thing turned out, it wns a giaud hum bug. The Indians wero real, and wero prepared to do their part in true Indian stylehut ihe Rtitfolo utterly refused lo play his pari. And so it was a gmnd u.t.l The D'hoys hnvejust passed the Gibson House iu pro cession, Willi tin dead body of Ihe Butt ulo ou n deny. The manager of iho " I hint " was on the balcony of ihe 3d story, nud ft hen Ihey discovered hnn they mnde the most unearthly din, being A compound of hisses, yells, nud Indian shouts. It is evident that the populace doii'i relish the fun quite as well as the men who have pock etcd some thousands of dollars by the operation. And so ends tho famous Buffalo Hunt of Cinciniiaii, in this year of Grace I8!U. To-night the celebrated Italian Opera singer, Pahodi, gives her first concert at tbo Melodeou. Rumot bat sprend her fame, and many musical ciiiics have placed her a second lo uono, not even Jknnt Lisn. I shall attend, and sntisfy myself ou lhal point. Tim result of whu h judinont, be it worth whnt it mnv, I will com- nuiniciile to the renders of llio Journal. Tuk Skniou LETTER U. Find Concert uf I'nrodl.Hoh nt noil' Miim-iuii, Cincinn ati, June '-if The first concert of M'llo Pahodi came off last even ing nt iho Melodeou. The hall is a splendid one ihe best adapted to music of any in the city. It is cupabti of seating at lenst one thousand persons comfortably About eight hundred were present, comprising, a I should judge from appearances, llio elite of llm Queen City. Iho performance wero received throughout with the warmest approbation, t if course Ptitoni w as the star of tbo evenin?, but there weie others present of no mean magnitude. Tho troupe com-i'ls of four performers Pauoiu, M'llo Amai.u Pa tti. Si uakoscii, tbo pianist, nnd iUirn, the violinist. Sthakosch is an at title xn grent power and merit. We have never heard his superior on tho piano. His " Van-kee DflotUc" with variations, wus one of the best things of the kind wo ever heard, and brought down ihe house decidedly. Hauskh has great command of the violin, und rank high among eminent professors of thnt instrument. Hi" Carnival of Venice " wns well played, but we think we have henrd it performed willl ns strange mid startling varieties as hn used. Kimi i.mas oos up the grotepqiie nnd outre, ill lhat wonderful pro- duclioii of P.iganitii, fully as well as nny performer to whom we havo ever listened, ll struck us that there wns more smooth melody about lUusrit' music than was usual. He is nu flrfMfe of decided merit, Ami wilb SruAKoseii on the piano, he was frequently called out the second lime. M'lle Path is a singer of morn ability limn we ex pected to hour. Sho is smaller than Pahodi and bus not her line, commanding form, but her music was well received ami appreciated by the nudieme. The "drinking song," from "l.uctetui Borgia' was a lino musical piece, nud so well sung as lo be encmed wiih grent applause. She hns a clear musical voice, not of grent power, but well cultivated, and lias a manner that ii easy, natural and winning. In iho last piece, where she sung with Tauodi in the duetto from "Nor ma, she displayed a high order of talent, and fairly divided the laurels with the famous Italian. Pakopi deserves all that has been said of her iu the Eastern papers. We tried to form a true estimate of her merit as compared with Jknnt Lind, and will state the result of our impressions. We will premise by saying that we beard Jknnt Lind in the National Theatre, which, it is agreed, is not well adapted to singing, and tbut on both occasions we sat wiiliia ,'lu feet of her. At the Melodeou, last oveniug, our seat wns near the back part of tho house, not too far to hear every tone of tho music, but too far to catch the expression of P.vuont's countenance. It is very possible that the different ptuccs of singing nnd the different positions wo occupied mny have bad some effect on our mind, and that a change of place by theso eminent singers might modify or change our impressions Indeed, It Is moro than possible that such would be tho case. But to proceed: On the lower part of the scale Parodi has fully as much forco as Jknny Lind, but upon the highor notes, and in power to fill tho vast hall with melody, she is not her equal, and we nover expect to hear a singer who has J knn vs power in thnt respect. Slill, she docs not appear to full in ihis part, by any means. She sustained herself remarkably well, and if we had not heard Jknnt Lind, we ihiuk she would have ranked first in our judgment for strength and power of voice. If she has Iho ability to soar awny on tlio nightingale notes, and warble like a bird on tlio clear, high key that, with JtftNY, is so rematkuble, she did not exhibit it lnat evening. Condor compels us to say that, with the exception of the bird like parts of Jknnt's singing, we thought Pa-noDi had tlio advantage- of her in melody, or pure richness of tone, which wo can feel, but which we have no terms nt our command to express. Pauodi is a most accomplished singer, and hns improved upon a naturally rich, melodious voice, hy bringing to bor service all Ihe appliances of art. She is a splendid woman, of miller more than medium size, taller and larger than Jknnt Lind, and, we should think from her appearance at the distance we sat, something of Jinny's build about the chest nnd shoulders. She Is fuller in form and face thnn Jennt was nt Cincinnati, and has not her pure white, Northern skin, but more of the Italinn brunette. Wehopo to get near enough to sco Iho color of her eyes, aud the expression of her faco, at hor second and last concert, to-night. We know nothing of her enrly history or character, and, of course, there was no imagination or romance to dnzzle the fancy, or usurp the judgment in this case. It is difficult, always, to doterrnine how much effect these things have upon our opinions of persons upon whom wo aro called to Bit in jugment. With Jenny Lind, overy thing in her history and career was an appeal in her favor. Tho poor Swedish girl, struggling against nov- orly and the ndvire of friends alone in a foreign land, with nothing to give prestige to her nnme, but every iliing but her genius and power against her rising by merit ufono lo an eminence from whence she may look down upon iho reputation of even llm most eminent artiifsaud added lo this, a purity of life, and simplicity of deportment, and warm sympathy with tho distressed and needy every w here all lliese things com bined, throw around her a halo of glory that cannot bo entirely forgotten when we hear her sing, and attempt to form a correct estimate of her merits simply as au artiste. No man ol proper feelings can attend a concert of Jenny Lino's without a slrong pre disposi tion in her favor, and in Ihe very best state of niiud to bo pi on sell. With Parodi, none of these things exist, so far as we know, to warp the judgment. She is an Italian Opera singer. Personally, she is attrnclive pcihop more so than Jkjjny Lind. Rut it is our impression that if an ntire stranger to tho life nud career of both, were to hear them on the tame evening, he would be troubled to tell which wus the greatest artiste. He would, if ho agreed with us, Bny that Ji-.nny had greater versatility if genius bnd more power, especially on the high notes, but that Pahodi had more liquid melody of expression, with by no menus a perceptible want of pow er, nnd cultivation. Wo give it as our opinion that she is uo menu rival of tho fnir Swede, and is nn artiste miiieidly deserving tbo high chnrncter sho hat won. We trust our musicnl friends will miss no cenvenient qqiorlunity to hear her sing. It is possible that our near position to Jknnt Lind, at her concerts, where she was obliged to exert herself to fill iho vast hull of ihe Theatre, had tho effect to in jnro the melody, and liquid richness of her tones. We desired to hear her from ihe back part of the room to sco what effect distance would have upon uur hnpres sioiis. And it may be that, by heaiing Parodi with our seat as clo?e to her as was uir seat to Jknny, we may reverse our judgment, both on the score of power and melody. If such shall be the result, wo will make all uecded corrections. We have read in the papers of the deep passion and em rgy of soul wiih which Parodi enters into ihe per lorinauce or the gem of the gn at Iialian mnsiers. Wo saw nothing of this. We saw graceful, appropriate positions, and elegant demeanor, but nothing lhat attract ed peculiar attention. So much for Mm chapter on Pahodi. The " H'hoys," who though! themselves humbugged by tho Bulhilo bunt yesterday, and to which I referred iu my last, ufter parading the principal streets, drew up In front of Wood's Museum, and manifested decided symphunsof gelling up a regular mob. They were determined to take iho dend Buffalo up two flight of sluirs, and lay him out on the stage uf the L-cluro room. But ihe Mayor utid police interfered, and marched some dozen of ihe riug-leadi rs to jail, when oitler was restored, and iho crowd dispersed. There was the right kind of material for a real tear-down mob, nud for some time we thought they would get poses-sioii of the Museum, ami destroy every thing in it. But the prompt nnd energetic conduct of iho city authority cru-hed it iu ihe bud. Some five or six thousand people were gathered around Ihe Museum at the corner of Wid ui it and Fifih. A lit I lo fun at Iho expense of the getters up of this affair would have been well received, hecanso every, body who went felt hadly bored, (tec were not among litem) and turning ihe talk and laugh on somebody else was ull legitimate. Further thnn this was wrong. We do not see how the managers were in the fault. They hud the Buffalo and the Indians and the people, in vast crowds, came in witness the scene. But ihe Buffalo would not fight, and there was no help for it. He exhaust d bis pugnacious propensities by kirking Prof. Itainey over, ll.o tiny previous. That will be ihe only recoid be will leave of bis prowess, and from ihe general talk about this item, wo think it will last ss long ns a common sin d tomb stone. Tiir Editor.
