The present redeemable debt of the State is about $3,000,000.

Tf. S. Knott, one of the present proprietors, will be associated with Mr. Harrow, and we have no doubt that under their joint supervision the National will retain its present large and increasing pa- I tronage. Mad.

James' Concert. The audience was so i very small last niqht, at Mozart Hall, that Mad. James and her assistants had little heart for sing-ing. They went through the programme, however, in a satisfactory manner to those present.

Be sure to call, for you'll be sure of bargains, si 6 d3 Theater. To-night we have the "Bride of Lammermoor" at the theater, with Mr. Elmore as Ravenswood, a character in which be particularly excels.

His illustration of the part has been considered by competent judges even superior to that of Gustavus Brook, the great English tragedian. We have before spoken of Mr. Elmore's general excellence as an actor, as one of the best leading men on the stage. His style is somewhat original, but distinguished by a quiet intensity in favorable contrast to the ranting whioh is but Joo common with many of our prominent actors. In one respect he proves himself the finished artist, and that is, that he never sacrifices the unity of the character which he is personating through an insane desire to bring down the house, by forcing a point alien to the individuality of the part.

The remainder of the entertainmen, for tonight will consist of the laughable farce of Teddy Roe, "and the whimsicality of Gideon's Ghost, in which the eccentric Yankee corn-median, ''Yankee Bierce," will appear. In the latter piece the ghost from Broadway is expected to be present, through a reasonable desire to witness a rival performance. n-nryGray, of HarrlBon, firat premium $50 'i os.

A St. Louis paper relates the troubles a California gold seeker who left New York forSau Francisco, thence proceeded to the mines, worked hard for four years, remitting to his wife in the Empire city $1,000 per annum all the time, and finally returned home anxious to meet the partner of his life, and with her share a handsome fortune which he had accumulated.

He found, however, that during his absence she had married a gay youth, was the mother of three obildren, and that all were living in St. Louis. He went to that city and had an interview with her, with what result is not stated, but the St. Louis writer thinks the incident is another proof of the folly of leaving a handsomeyoung wife in the great city of New York to the mercy of fast young men, fierce moustaches, patent leather boots, choker collars and gold chains. Suspension of Phillips, Sampson Co.

The Boston Transcript says The announcement on Saturday afternoon that Phillips, Sampson had suspended payment, was received with general regret in the community. The two leadiDg members of the firm have died within a few months, and the survivor deemed it beet, under the embarrassing circumstances in which he was placed, to suspend. The Boston Journal is assured that the Atlantic Monthly has not only paid its expenses, but a very handsome profit over its cost. The suspension grew out of unfortunate circumstances, well known to the trade, which produced a lack of oonfidenoe in the stability of the house. Barn Bussed.

The barn of Mr. John Holland, about two mites south-east of New Castle, was consumed by fire on Thursday night of last week. Two fine horses were burned to death, and two others severely injured. Mr. Holland's loss will reach about $1,500.

New Castle Democrat, lUh. pgg3 Gen. "Wool was serenaded at the Revere House, Boston, on Saturday night. When the music was all' over, the perpetrators thereof were informed that the was quietly snoozing at Camp Massachusetts. PETERS, GRAGG WAREROOMS, CORNER "if JHAIN AND SIXTH SXS.

Your honorable body is aware that the undersigned are now (as they have been since May. 13541 running their cars from Twelfth street to Portland; as also, a line of omnibuses along ain to WeDzel street, connecting with their line of To8T in effect, theretore occupy the same line described the principal variation being between the intersection of Main and Thirteenth streets, id Louisville, and the intersection of Bank and Fulton streets, in Portland-each route passing over both of these points nod there diverging, the oue following the hvpothenu.se of the triangle, and tha other the two 'other eides. The distance between these common points by the r. ut ol the present road is but little more than'two miies, while by the ordinance route it is a full half mile further, so that the latter is twenty five per cent, longer than the former. On the scoro of the public convenience the proposed route is still more objectionable; for tmrlarge and increasing settlements on the Portland avenue, which furnish to the present road one or two bundled passengers per day, could get no accommodation from acs count of its distance from them; while to compensate for this, it haa no population or settlements of its own.

And, finally, as to the proposed terminus Portland, at the foot of Fulton street, there can be no comparison between it and the terminus 01 toe present road. Much the larger portion of the travel between Louisville and Portland passes over the Portland and New baby ferry. The Louisville and Portland railroad terminates now at the ferry, while the proposed road would terminate a quarter of a milt distant. To show how seriously inconvenient this would be, it need only be stated that when the pretest road terminated at tbe foot of Grove street two squares or more than 1,000 feet nearer the ferry than Fulton street it waa found absolutely necessary to run an omnibus between the cars and the boats, which was felt to be unnecessarily expansive by the company and a serious annoyance to travel, but far preferable to compelling ladies and others to trudge, perhaps, through dust or mud, or the hot sun, or the cold of winter. And although the foot of Fulton street may be as convenient to the steamboat landing as thefootof Grove, though not mere so, still the canal enlarged and the railroad to Memphis completed both of which events are likely soon to occur and the travel from steamboats will anio'intto nothing.

It is confidently affirmed, therefore, that the route of the present road is a better one, as far as it goes, than the proposed new route, aud that, in fact, it is the shoreet and best route by struts that could ue seiectea, saving only, perbaps, that it should pass down Fulton and'Water streets, ia Portland, the latter of which the undersigned could not use under the terms of their original grant, and do not now use (though they have permissiou to do so,) in deference to the wishes of the holders of property fronting it When the undersigned purchased their charter from the Kentncky Institution for the Education of the Blind, it was he opiniou of the members of the Board of Visitors, consisting of Jutfe Bullock, Judge Bodly, Bland Ballard, Esq, and others, in whose legal opinions the utmost coua-dence was reposed, that the right of way exis ed under it from Sixth cross street, cn Main, to Portland. If it had been supposed that the road would be confinod west ot Twelfth street it would never have been built. It was as evideut then as it is now that a street road from Twelfth to Portland would but imperfectly accomplish the obj et proposed. When it was attempted, however, to extend it up Mam, the General Council, at the 0-licitation of the property-holders, who at that time entertained the belief that a railroad would be injurious to the business of the street, to prevent it. Owing to this interference, whioh was in deference to an unripe public sentiment, the undersigned have bet.n deprived of a privilege which they supposed had bought, and hae, thereby, been subjected to great loss and inconvenience.

Their charter, however, contains the provision that they may extend their road with the cousent of the city authorities. And they ha accordingly, awaited with confidenca the arrival of the period when the extension, instead of te-ing deemed injurious, would, on the contrary, he considered a great public convenience aud bane Lit, aud have not doubted that wheu this period nr-rived as arrive they knew it must they would uot only be restored to the privilege of which, by the action of the General Council, tbey had been deprived, but would bo permitted at the same time to extend their road tjb rough the entire length of Main street. The undersigned, notwithstanding they have made large outlays in construction and equipment, and notwithstanding they have been in operation for more thaB five years, have never as yet been enabled to make any return to their stockholders iu dividends. They built their roiid when street railroads were in their infancy, and whu but little was known, na compared with what is now known, as to the modes of constructing, equippiug, and managing them. Their rood was the third or fourth street railroad ever built, the first not having been built more than two or three years previously.

They have had, in a great measure, to go by the ligbt of their own experience, gathering valuable information, oitt only after repeated and einensive exoeritnentij. They have suffered twice from fires, evidently the wors 01 incenaiaries. 1 oey nave ioudu tnat a street railroad in Louisville, with receipts amounting barely tj one hundred dollars per day, and encumbered with expensive aud inconveuieut omnibus connections, was a very different concern from one realizing a thousand dollars per day, as is the case with many in the Eastern cities. Within the short period of three years, they have found it necessary to throw aside au equipment of cars, but little worn, and are at this time building, with a view to the adoption of modern improvements, still a third set, to entirely supercede the Becond; but when these are finished, they are satisfied no road, anywhere, will be stccked with cars ol" superior mechanical construction, better adapted to the business, of finer or more showy finish, or more convenient or comfortable to passengers. These cars are being made in their own shops, uo other establishment for such work being in exist ence in tbe city, hvery dollar tbe Company have ever earned has been expended in improvement.

They have always met, as promptly us oircu n- stances permitted, any reasonable demands of the public. They were asked to run their line at night, and ior more than two years tney have been doing so, although it has always been at a Iobs. They were asked to extend their lino to Wenzel street, aud yet, for the ten nienths durii which it ha been in operation, their extra receii ts havo been loss than were necessary to defray the expense of the fire omnbuases employed in tbe extension. They are now running their cars aod omi i-busea more than 800 miles per day, and have be on receiving therefor less than 12 ceuts per They are aware that they are not affording all tbe accommodation, or as good as is needed, between Louisrille and Portland; but they insist that they are affording all that is possible, unless thuir road be extended up Main street. The break at Twelfth street, and the insufficiency of the omnibus, is the fruitful source of nearly every complaint against their line.

One of their cars will transport sixty or seventy passengers with more comfort than an omnibus will fifteen or twenty, while a siDgle horse or mule will propel the former with more ease and at greater speed than two will the latter. And although it often happt os that for hours their cars are run with scarcely a passenger, at other times they are crowded inside and out. It is only, therefore, by a continuous line of track through Main street, that it is possible to afford to travel on the line til the comfort, regularity, and accommodation that is required. That there can be no necessity for two railroads, between Louisville and Portland, is evident from the fact that in other cities one is found sufficient to accommodate ten times the amount ef travel that need such accommodation here; and from the farther fact that the present road could accommodate a much greater number of passengers than now ever pass between the two points or are likely bo to pass in years to come. It must be evident to your honorable body upon a moment's reflection that a iival road possessing a continuity of track, from the head of Main street to Portland, would be uttr ly ruinous to the business of the undersigned.

They call your attention to thefactthat the investment they have made is of such a character that they cannot withdraw their capital. If their business" is destroyed their capital is sunk. The good faith of tbe city is impliedly pledged for their protection in the enjoyment of the rig'ita that have been granted them. They reposed entire confidence in that good faith when they built their road, and do not now doubt that your honorable body will fully respect it. They cannot believe, therefore, that you will pursue a course so unjast upon principle, and that will prove so disastrous to the undersigned, as the establishment of another road, thn throwing into the laps of others, who have no interest at stake, the fruits of years of toil and of large outlays (as yet without reward), to the enjoyment of which the undersigned alone are entitled.

They do not sbua they seek an investigation of their management. If it be defective, they are ready to correct it. They are prepared to meet all the just demands of the city and the public, and to give ample guaranties for the faithful performance of their obligations to both; and, if permitted to extend their road through Main street, to pay a fair bonus or per centage upon the gross receipts for the privilege and to submit to such terms and conditions as may be deemed just to them, subservient of tie interests of the city, and promotive to the last degree of the public convenience. Tbev therefore, mGsi earnestly remonstnte against tho passage of an ordinance for the instruction of a rival road, and respectfully petition to have granted to them permission to extend thftir road, if in your opinion, such extension be desirable.

Thursday evening, Bar ney Shumake, a sprightly lad of about 16, died from lock-jaw, caused by an injury he had received at the steam bakery of J. M. Moore, on Fifth a week previous. He was employed in the bakery, and had frequently been cautioned about carelessly handling the-machiuery, but forgot the injunctions, and got his band and arm most terribly bruised, and two fingers crushed in the belting of the pullies. Mr.

Moore, at the time of the accident, very promptly took him to the Hospital, and there surgeons were called on to attend bim. They were Doctors Palmer, Yandell, and Bush, from whom he received every possible attention, but lock-jaw ensued, causing his death. SeportedKxpressly forthe Louisville Courier. POLICE COTJST.

The San Francisco correspondent of the New York ribune has the following The Germans of this city held a meeting last eek to take measures to put Btop to the impor tation of dancing girls from Germany. Large umbers of German girls from twelve to eighteen ears of age are now employed in this State at low auciniz houses, which are open every evening and free to all. These places are frequented by men of coarse manners, who dance with the girls, and at the end of each piece each man is required, by custom, to take his partner to the bar and treat er, tne twri drinks costing twenty-uve cents, it expected that the gins win accept every oner to ance. Acouaintance. neatness oi aress, or gen tility of conduct is not expected in the men partners.

During the davtime the girls go about the streets, usually in couples, playing the tambourine ir accordeon, and singing at toe doors oi grog-hops or inns, where thev demand "two bits" cash pavment of every bystander. vt course mese gins are exposed xo many mptations, and it is a matter of wonder how ell thev guard themselves, and how faithful thev are to their employers. The latter make contracts with the parents in Germany to pay a large price, arying from Jfl to per day, ior tne girls unng a period ot several years, and pay tneir ussaee to California and back. These contracts are usually faithfully kept by the employers; and the girls rarely break their part of the bargain. It is the interest of the employer to prevent the rls from falling to the lowest grade of humani ty, ior il they should so iau tney would desert and deprive mm ot bis Drorus; so ho man ges to always keep two or three girls together, nd make them serve as guardians for each other; and their comparative success deserves to be set down as psychological wonder, due, perhaps, rather to the phlegmatic inertia of Germauy tban the active virtue ot Humanity.

Alost ot tne girls come from Hanover and the vicinity of Bremen, and they are to be sent to all parts of the State. Several of them were arrested in this ty day before yesterday, and an effort will be ade to have them sent to the House of Refuge.

pument urged in certain Democratic papers that Douglas' nomination is necessary to the success of the party in 1SG0. We are bv no mertns mprmroi to admit the truth of this assumption. We do not believe that the success of the Democratic party depends on any one man. Its destinies are in the keeping of the American people, in whose hearts its great principles will still live when the proudest of those who now uphold or seek to subvert them, shall have pissed away and been forgotten. Those principles have survived the opposition of greater men than Stephen A.

Douglas. They have withstood the assaults of open enemies and the treachery of pretended friends, and they have still Btrength onough to stand, even though Mr. Douglas should withdraw his support. It is indeed a bumiliatiua acknowledgment that the Democratic party are no longer capable of defending the cause of popular rights which has been committed to their custody, except under the leadership of one man that thev are such Ahipnt slaves as to refuse to vindicate their principles except at the bidding of a self-constituted ruler; that a great party is cooipelled to bow down at his footstool, and crave his assistance to save them from defeat, I We do not believe it. We reDel the imnntetinn upon the integrity of the Democratic masses, as alike dishonorable and undeserved.

We deny that tney nave oecome tne minions of one man's nnw. er and that he aloce holds the fortunes of the party and its principles in his grasp. When have the Democracy acknowledged their fealty to Mr. Douglas as higher than their allegiance to the principles of their party? When have they proclaimed his supremacy over them and surrendered the guardianship of their rights into his keeping? How is it that his single voice has become more potential than the voice of the people; that bis will can control the suffrages of American freemen? "Now in the name of all the gods, at once, upon what meat does this, our Cro3ar, feed, that he is grown so great?" Are there not other Democratic statesmen his equal in ability and equally entitled to the gratitude of the partv? Upon what pedestal of popularity has this Colossus been reared, that these men ehould be compelled to "walk under his huge legs and peep about to find themselves dishonorable Has he so endeared himself to the Democracy by his perfidity to their principles Do his superior claims rest upon his desertion of his party on a great question involving the equality of the States and his refusil to vote for the admission of a slave State into the Union? Ii'so, Wm. H.

Seward, John Bell and Anson Burlingham have claims scarcely inferior to Mr. Douglas. Has he established his right to rule the party by proclaiming himself in the Senate an "uoconquered rebel" against its time honored principles and U3ttges: or does his merit consist in his maintaining the right of a few abo lition emissaries to exclude the citizens of fifteen States of this confederacy from all participation iu the common territory of the nation If this or any of these thiDgs be the secret of his alleged power, then let it be known that hostility to the South is a merit, and that he who shall hereafter most fearlessly assail its principles and substitute the most odious heresies in their place, has the strongest title to its confidence and respect. we nave saio mat we am not oeiteve that Mr. Douglas' nomination was necessary to the success of the party.

If it were so, we should prefer de- teat under our old banner, to a victory achieved by an ignominious desertion of them. But nothing would so surely bring disaster upon tho party, as an abandonment of its principles, and the adoption of Mr. Douglas' heresies in their ktead. Whenevsr the Uemocracv cease to vindicate the constitutional lights of all the States, either against thehigher law doctrines ofjWm. II.

Seward or the Squatter Sovereignty doctrines of Stephen A. Douglas, it will fall as it ought to fall, uuder the contempt and condemnation of the people. No man's pow is so great us the power of T. nth and Justice, and it were bad policy, if nothing more, to gie up these bulwarks of strength to secure the aid or support ot any political leader. We cannot concede the force of any argument that assumes the necessity of nominating for the Presidency a politician who had been so steadily pursuing his own seifish ends, that he has lost sight of the good of his couotry and the integrity of its Constitution.

We cannot believe that the Democratic party can he brought to debase themselves at the feet of an avowed rebel to their principles, by any such appeals to their cupidity or any such attempts to inumidate them.
