Probably one of the most important Con ventions of the Deibooratio party ever beldin the State of Pennsylvania was convened in Ilurrisburg yesterday. The Convention has no nomination to make except that of a candidate for Judge of the Supremo Court of the state The special importance in this nomination arises from the tendency of the mass of people during the past few years to drift in the coursa of oppression and un constitutional laws.

We go to press too early to give any account of tbs proceedings of the Con vention. We will announce them next week. The Steven'i Sherman Bill. Doctor John in his last paper says, that one of the leaders in the "Fishing Creek Confederacy" is writing a history of the affair ; and he straightway goes to work to call the attention of the historian to somebody else in order to shield himself from the punishment ho deserves for the business of hounding on soldiers to oppress and distress people who were a thousand In South Carolina, General Sickles has widenod the range of his duties in such a manner as to uhow the full effect and mean ing of the bill under which he holds power and exercises authority. In April he issu ed an order overturning all the civil laws and processes of that State with reference to the collection of debtx. and instituted in their place a scries of orders dated from his headquarters and signed by himself as mili tary commander. This was a long stride to wards a full and entire destruction of all civil authority in the division over which this officer holds the sword. But it was not enough. General Sickles is determined that the people shall feel tho cntiro force of the Stevens-Sherman bill, as its provisions are understood by the Radicals, and hence he interferes with matters which are properly covered by muneipitl authority, and issues orders with reference to tho licensing of inns and restaurants, and decrees regulating the manner of conducting ths bueineRs of railroads, Etrectaitagestcamboati'i. and other publio conveyances. From all these orders there is no appeal. They niuat be obeyed. Disobedicnco will be followed by a military arrest, a trial beforo a military tribunal, conviction and sure punishment. In this manner General Sickles aids the civ il officers in carrying out the civil laws in his division. ?-H The manner in which the different com manders placed over the unrepresented States havo interpreted the Stevens-Sherman bill, and their acts done by virtue of authority conferred by that Radical measuro, show that the Democrats were right when they denounced it as a deliberate and deter mined attempt to destroy a republican form of government in the South, and creot in its stead a military despotism. This is the old trick of the pilferer when ho cries "stop thief I" whilo he is carrying off the stolen goods- ' Bnt we are glad that there is to be a "history" in this case.. Per haps we will fiud out who made of them selves spies, in the dark days of oppression, and spied nothing but what was conjured up by their own cowardly minds and diseased imsginatfons. We may find out who really did 'send telegrams to Harrisburg and make suggestions to the officers in com mand. Dr. John intimates that Mr. Clark did this. "When rogues fall out honest men get their dues." , AVe really hope some light may be thrown on tho general subject by this "history." Tho oppressed and abused mon, women, and children of Fish ing croek most ardently desiro light Democratic County Uosvestion. It will be seen by the proceedings of the Coun ty Convention, that that body etai.ds ad journed until Saturday, June 22d inet. The cause of this adjournment arose from the fact, that the Councils of tho borough had previously passed aa ordinance prohib iting all public gatherings until further no tice, in consequence of the prevalence of a contagious disease, which thoy aro fearful may become moro general by tho meeting af large bodies of persons together. The knowledge of tho paseago of this ordinance, led many to suppose that no Convention would be held, conseouentlv sonm of tl What dele S2J General Sherman has issued a Gen eral Order stating that tho Union Pacific Railroad will be so well guarded in future that no Indian will dare to interfore with it. AH paesengers and freight must be forward ed to tho end of the track, and from there will be guarded by efficient escorts specially provided by him for that purpose. A sufficient force of cavalry is already on post General Sherman is sanguine that he will clear the Piatt Valley of Indians within two weeks. A fight ba. occurred between nine passengers and twenty Indians within five miles of Moor's Fort. One passenger was killed instantly, and General Davies' son wai mortally wounded. Two Indians wero killed and five severely wounded. Five of the passengers returned to Omaha on the evening of the Oth. Gov ernor Steel, of Colorado, had a narrow es cape, but subsequently reached Denver in safety.. lownsiiip were unrepresented gates were in attendance, met andorganized at Savage's Hotel, and appointed Senatorial and Representative conferees, to meot simi lar conferees from the o'her Counties em braced in the districts, and then adjourned to meet on Saturday, June 22d, next, on which occasion it is expected all tho dele gates will be preeont.

His counsel have been insisting on going on with the case, for several weeks, cut tuo "government was never ready. The radical papers are doing all they can to prejudice the minds of the people against this young man ; and while we cordially agree that all murder should bo punished, yet where life is at stake, com mon deosney if nothing more should stay the tongue as well as the pen until a fair trial be-had. -Too Philadelphia Inquirer ot Saturday last m a conspicuous heading says that a conviction is oertainly m prospect.

There have been a few cases of small pox in this place, and a num ber of cases of varioloid. The first was Mr. Poor, who, wo believe, contracted the dis ease in Scranton. ne came homo to his residence in Danville, where he died. Sinco his death, it has spread to some extent, but we have heard of no othor deaths. There was quite a panic a few days ago, and in obedience to publio sentiment, the Town Council assembled and pioraulgated an or dinance, which will bo found in the adver tising columns of this paper. The excite ment is, however, apparently dying away. Nearly everybody in town has been vaccin ated, and we havo no apprehension of any great extension of the disease, nor do we think there is the least danger to our country friends, who visit the town. We aro aware of many cock-and-bull stories that are in circulation, and which may be credited by some, but our readers can rely with entire confidence on the statement we have made. There has V.en only one death up to this time, and w! ha.ve not heard of any other cases that are likely to prove fatal. Mon tour American.' We have received from tho publish er, Rev. 8. W.

The Union Pacific Railroad from Omaha, Nobraeka. - What hat hem done, and tcjun it will le ' - . if, finished. '" s"H . No great enterprise was evar begun about which so little has been said and so niuoh has boon done. , The public have a vaguo ides that a railroad is boing built from some where in the Kast to somewhero in the far ther West than a rail-track has over bofore been laid but where it boding, or what route it follows, or where it is to end, we venture to assert, not one in a thousand can tell. For a dozen years we havo heard that a great Pacifio Railroad was to le built, and a dozen names and a dozen companies, and a dozen routes from the southern boundary of Texas to tho northern boundory of Lake Superior have been urged upon Congress as the greatest and best means for uniting the Atlnntio and Pacifio shores. Bubble after bubble was blown, and each burst in turn when touched by the sharp point of practical experience. The absolute necessity for a Pacifio Rail road to retain and bind more closely togeth er tho eastern and western extremes ot tho continent in ono great United and Pacific country, the immense cost of government transportation to its frontier and Rocky Mountain posts, and the even greater costs of Indian wars, in a region that nothing but a railroad could civilize and nothing but civilization could pacify, tho great impor tance of opening a road to tho riuh gold and silver .mines of the Rocky and Sierra Nevada Mountains, so that the way to the resump tion of specie payments might bo made shorter and easier, all these prudential reasons una uy pressed with such weight upon Congress, that it determined that the road should be made. There wero, indeed, many others: two thousand miles. of additional territory would be opened for settlement; vast bodies of land now valueless would be made productive ; the tide of business and travel that now winds a tedious and danger ous wav along tho borders of two oceans, would be incresed ten-fold ; and how would the fathers in the East strike hands with their sons And daughters at the Golden Gate, if they could only be borne on the wiugs or the locomotive I The imperative need of the work was ad mitted, but it was too vast for individual enterprfro to attempt, No combination of private capitalists was willing to risk a hun dred million dollars in the construction of 2,090 miles of railroad through tho wilder ness. As the undertaking was strictly na tional, so no power less thau that of the nation was sufficient to acomplish it; and large as the cotst necessarily would bo, tho expenditure would save a much greater cost to the country ijut the Uovernmenl did not wish -to eutcr upon any new system of internal improvements on its own account : and its only alternative was to grant its aid in the most careful manner to such respon sible individuals of suitable character and encriry as mieht bo willinc to risk a nortiou of their private means in the construction ot the road. The Company's Charter and Route. This charter was granted and perfected by various acts of Congress, and the Com pany comprises men of tho highest reputa tion for integrity, wealth, and businc-s ex perience. Among tho officers aro General John A. UiX, President, Thomas V. Durant, Vice-President, and Hon. John J. Cisco, late Assistant Treasurer of tho U. S., Treasurer. The Capital authorized by tho Charter is One Hundred Million Dollars, of which it is estimated that not exceeding- Tweuty- rive minions win oe required, ami oi wiuen rive Millions have airoadv been paid in fiiuvr-yiiig pnrtios-wero at outio pushciT out in various directions across tho eonti- nent to find and locate tho best available lino between tho Missouri River and tho Pacifio Ocean. 1 his was established at Omaha, in Nebraska, on the east, and will una! iv be at f rancisco, in tuliiornia, on the west a distance ot nearly J.900 miles. Tho Chicago and North Western Railroad is now completed from Chicago to Omaha, a distance of Wl miles: and several other roads are rapidly building to unite with the union I acme at the same poiut; so that its eastern connections will 6e nu merous and complete. The general lino of the road from Omaha is wost up the Valley of the great Platte, and thcnce.aoross the plains a distance of 517 miles, to tho lilaok Hills, or easterly spur of the Rocky Mountains. Col. Sey mour, the consulting Engineer, reports that the grade is much more favorable than was anticipated the maximum to the Rocky Mountains not exceeding SO feet to the mile, and irom that point to the summit, or divide of the continent, it will not exceed SO feet to the mile. From tho Rocky Mountains, the best practicable route will be taken to Great. Salt Lake City, and thenco by tho Valley of the Humboldt River to the eastern base ot the hierra Nevada Moun tains. The Central Pacific Railroad is now being rapidly built east from Sawimento, Cal., and is already completed about 100 miles, and will connect with the Union Pacific. What Has Been Done and its Cost. As we remarked beforo, there has been very little talk, and a groat deal of work. Almost before tho public wore aware, it had been begun. On the first of J anuary, 1 S67, tho Union Pacilio Railroad was Jinuthcd for 30f) miles west from Omaha, and fully equipped with Locomotives, Rolling Stock, Repair Shops, Depots, Stations, &o. and the Company have on hand, Iron. Ties, and othor materials, sufficient to fiinish the road to the Rocky mountains, or 617 miles from Omaha, by the first of September, 1S07. It is expected that the whole line through to California will be comnleted in 1870. : The first 305 miles were' graded, bridged ana ironea, witu a neavy r-raii, und suppli ed with suitable Depots, Repair Shops, Sta tions, Locomotives. Cars, and all the necus. ary appurtenances oa first class road, for $50,000 per mile, and it is believed that the remaining portion will not increaso tho average cost to more than 900,000 par milo, exclusive of eauinmenU. MEANS TOR (ONKTRiTrrrnw When the Government determined that the road must be bunt, it also determined to make the most ample provision to render its speedy construction beyond doubt 1st The Grant op MojfEr. Tho Gov- be rendered to the Government during that period will coustituto a sinking fond suffi cient for their redemption at maturity. 2d. Tub Fihst , Mobtoaqb Bonds. The Government permits tho company to issue its own Mortgage Bonds at the same time, and on tho same terms, and for the satno amount, aud by special Act of Con press these boiids of the Company are made a FiUst Moktoaqb on the entire line und property of the road, tho Government bonds leinn subordinate. Tho amount of these Bonds to be issued by the Company is lim ited to an amount equal to those issued by the Government to aid in the construction of the road. 3d. Tub Land Grant. While this is certainly munificent, at tho same time it is ruost advantageous to the Government, for without it, all its own lands would re main almost worthless. It is a donation of every alternate section for 20 miles ou each side of tho road, or 12,800 acres per mile, and umounts to 20,032.000 acres, assuming the distanco from Omaha to the California Statu lino to bo 1,505 miles. Much of this land, especially in tho Valley of tho Great Platto, is a rich alluvium, and is considered equal to any in tho world for agricultural purposes. Hon. 11. D. Mansfield, tho learned Commissioner of Statistics for tho State of Ohio, estimates that at least 9,400, 000 acres will bo available to tho Company within a modorato length of time, and that it is far within bounds loestimato this entire grant at l,50 an aero, or $30,000,000. The Illinois Central has realized mora than four times this sum for a similar grant. Recapitulation of Means eor 1,505 Milks. U. S.

This does not take into the account tho valuo of tho right of way and material, the stock subscription paid in or to bo paid in the future, or the present discount at which the bond i arc offered, us they aro expected soon to be at par. The interest on the Bonds is more than provided for by the net carnincsof tho vari ous sections of the road, ns they aro comple ted. Un the .105 miles on which the cars are now running west from Omaha, the re ceipts for the first two weeks in May were H 1 U,00U; and as the road is extended to wards the groat mining centres, the busi ness in freight and passengers constantly increases and as there can be no competi tion from rival road, the company has full power to charge remunerative prices. I'UOSlECTS FOR FciTRE BUSINESS. It needs no argument to show that tho traffic of the oniy railroad connecting the Atlantic aud Pacific, and passing thronh the great mining region, must be -immense. Although our annual product of the prcHcious metals is now ofhcially estimated at J 100,000 per annum, a vastly greater sum will be obtained as soon as the L'nion Pacif ic Railroad opens tho way to tho golden regions of the Rocky Mountains. Now, the di.'liculties and cost of communication are so great, that none but the very richest veins can be worked ; but with cheap transporta tion, hundred.- of thousands of hardy miners will successfully develop other mines, that, with less costly working, will bo oven moro profitable than the averugo now in operation and the business of this constantly increasing minins interest must rmss over this road. The record of our shipping offices chow that not less than 50,000 passengers now annually travel by sea between the Atlantio rions and San Francisco : and these reckon ed at 815echrHbout one haif of Th?steam er price) wotiid produce a revenue of 7,-SOO.orU 1 he overland travel is even creator. In a siuyle year, twcniysevcn thousand teams, comprising a number of emigrants and trav elers, departed from two points only on the Missouri iiiver on tneir westwara journey. If t lie truth (if this statement was uot familiar to all frontier' s-mcn, it might well be oucstioncd. But, estimation tho over land through travel at tho same lipures as that by steamer, aud we have ?15, 000,000 as the minimum estimnto on the same num ber of passengers. But the facilities for cheap and rapid transit furnished by railroad always vastly increase the amount of travel with the same population. The difference between tho numbers who would tako an ocean steamer or a prairie wafron and a modern palaco car, with its luxurious frtatc rooms, where the travclor cats and sleeps almost as comfurtubly as at home, may Le as great as the difference betweon the numbers who were joltedovcr tho mountains in an old fashioned stage-coach and thoso in an Express train between any two great cities. Then is it not safe to say tnat this through. travel will be at onco doubled on the com pletion of the road in 1870, and, with tho rapid increase of Pacific Coast population in In Benton Columbia County, on the 2'Jth of May, 1867, Mr. Sameul McNeal, aged 79 years.

TIIE BECUittTI AND VALUE OF ITS BONDS. Wo have mado these calculations that the publio may havo some brief data of facts from which to form tboir estimate of the value of the Union Paoific Railroad Compa ny's Firat Mortage Bonds. Besides, mon of the greatest railroad experience in the country have shown their confidence in the stock by liberal subscriptions, and this stock must be subordinatetoallothcrclaims. But there are stronger poofs of the security and valuo of tho First Mortgage thau any we have named : 1. That for the safety of the country as well as national economy the road is indis pensable. ' 2. That by an investment of about fifty millions in a Second Mortgage on the road, the Government practically guarantees tho principal and interest on the first Mortgage. The Company now offer a limited ainoireji of its First Mortgage Bonds, bearing six per cent, interest, payable eemi-anunually to coin, at ninety per cent. This interest, at the enrront rate of premium on gold is equal to nine per cent, per annum on the Vmce for which thev are now offored. The Company expects to sell hut a small amount A? - I A.
