Democratic Meeting. A meeting of the Democratic party will be held THIS EVENING, at half-past seven o’clock, at the City Hall. Addresses may be expected from Messrs. Walker, \N kems, ami others. Concert Hall. We took a cursory glance, yesterday afternoon, at the interior arrangements at Concert llall, and were pleased at the very substantial, as well as neat, style in which the improvements have been made. The plastering on tire dome has been re moved, and a handsomely painted canvass lias been substituted. The gallery has been extended around the ball, nearly to the proscenium, and with the addition of ten or twelve feet to the hall, there will be room enough to comfortably accom modate about one thousand persons. A new and tastilypainted drop-curtain, with many new scenes, have been prepared, and will be exhibited on the first night of the performance. Mr. Allen's dramatic company (alreadv in the city,) will make their first appearance on Monday night. Several new candidates for public favor are in the corps, and we understand that the ladies are talented and handsome, and the gentlemen ex perienced, good actors. It is probable a crowded audience, on Monday night, will assemble in the Hall to witness the entertainments, and set in judgment ou the histrionic ability <■(' the com pany.

To Superintendents of Elections. The Rome S "dherner calls the attention of su perintendents of election to the following: “It is necessary, when election for Governor occurs, for the superintendents to send up three several re turns, one of which is deposited in the Clerk’s of* ffiee, one of which is sent to the President of the Senate, and the other to the Executive Depart ment. It is very important that this duty should not be overlooked, as not attending to it might vitiate ihe election.” Specie to London. The amount of gold known to be on the way to England, from Australia, as stated in the monetary and commercial article of the European Times of Sept. 12th, amounted to £1,120,300. When this large amount of gold is received, it will doubtless have a salutary influence on busi ness affairs. J3F”The hurricane deck, wheel-house, pilot house, Ac., belonging to the steamship Central America, were seen on the 17th Sept., about fifty miles North-east of Cape Ilattcras, by Capt. Slo cum, of the schooner E. Townsend. Elections in October.—-Elections for State offi cers will take place on the second Tuesday in Oc tober, in Pennsylvania, Ohio and lowa. In the same month elections take place in Mississippi and Minnesota. The Congressional elections close in November, with Maryland and Louisiana. The election in Kansas for territorial officers, takes place next Monday. Dead. —Gen. Moses Green, of Culpepper coun ty, Ya., formerly Adjutant General of Virginia, and for many years a member of the legislature, died ou the -jpth inst., at the Fauquier White Sul phur Springs, in the eighty eighth year of his age. In the war of 1812, lie commanded an independent advanced.corps. He was a person of extraordina ry physical proportions, being six feet four inches in height, and weighing nearly three hundred pounds. Tiie Ton u o Crop in Virginia.—A letter from a gentleman who has traveled through most of the tobacco growing counties in Virginia, says that crop w ill be less than that of last year. A great deal w hich is ripening has been attacked by the “rot,” and tlie only remedy being the knife, the yield will be considerably decreased. The western crop w as planted too late to clear the frost, and much of it will be destroyed. International Courtesy.—The Navy Depart ment has given orders to repair the Norwegian bark Ellen, whose commander, Capt. Johnson, saved the lives of forty-nine American citizens, and supplv her with two months provisions for her return to Europe. The Ellen is now at the Gosport Navy Yard, undergoing repairs. An Unpleasant Dispatch.—-Mrs. Gravfs, wife of a conductor on the Concord and Montreal rail' road, wa- on a visit to Wells River, Vermont’ the other day, and as she had never seen Ihe in side of a telegraph office, a visit was paid to it, and the first message that came while she was there, was one directed to herself, announcing he death of her husband. Relic or the Central America.—Mr. Ws. Bishop, residing near Portsmouth, \ a., has picked up ou Scott’s creek, a branch of Elizabeth river, a bottle containing a slip of paper, on which is written, “ Wx. Birch, San Francisco, on board the steamer Central America.’’ It was written bv Bil ly Birch, the minstrel, and had traveled a distance of two hundred and fifty miles. Louisville. Sept. 20.

The Position of the Democracy upon the Walker-Kansas Question. Upon this subject, we find the following para graph in an article which appeared in the Savan nah Republican, of the 30th ult.: “ What a spectacle do we now behold! But a few weeks clause, and we find this same party in glnriouslv fled or living from a position which they had set up as vital to the South —apologising and making every manner of excuse for the hand that smote them, and that, too, when it does not deign either to apologise or explain for itself— while their candidate is openly repudiating their original patriotic action, (for it amounts to no thing else than repudiation,) and declaring that he will not desert and make war upon the man who has deserted and made war upon us. Such is the aspect in which the Democratic party of Georgia stands before the people to-day, a suppliant for their favor and votes. Oh ! the power of federal displeasure upon the judgment and courage of men l” Our contempory of the Republican, in this ex tract, issigns to the Democratic party, and to its candidate for the office of Governor, a position in reference to Gov. Walker, and his course in Kan sas, which he ought to know they do not occupy. It is not true that the Democratic party has inglo riously fled from the position upon this subject, assumed in the resolutions of its State convention; nor is it true that its candidate has openly repu diated the patriotic action of that convention. If this were true, then the election of Judge Brown would be an endorsement of the policy of the Governor of Kansas—a conclusion against which in advance of his election, we protest. But this statement of the Republican is not true, and is not sustained by a single word which has been written or uttered by Judge Brown since his nomination. In his letter of acceptance he distinctly approved the action of theconvention by which be was nominated, and in all his addresses to the people lie not only has not “ openly repu diated” that action, but lias openly sustained and defended it, declaring, as he did in his letter to this paper of the 21st of September, that he endorsed every word of the platform laid down by that con vention —that he condemned Walker as that con vention had condemned him, for his unauthorized inter vention in the affairs of the people of Kansas, and for his violation of the principles of the Kan sas bill, and that he would condemn Mr. Buchanan, if in his annual message to Congress, be sustained Walker or failed to sustain tin- principles of the Kansas act. This is the position of the Democrat ic candidate for Governor—the position of the Democratic candidates for Congress—the position of the Democratic party, and it fully sustains the patriotic action of the Democratic State Conven tion. Occupying this position, the election of Judge Brown will be a condemnation of Walker, who lias violated the principles of the Kansas act, and of the American party which has arrayed it self in open hostility to the principles of that bill. If the people of Georgia desire to rebuke W alker, let them vote for the nominees of the Democratic party. If they desire to vindicate the principles •ff the Kansas bill against Walker who violates, or the American party which denounces them, let them vote for the nominees of the Democratic party. On the other hand, if they would indirect ly sustain Governor Walker, repudiate the prin ciples of the Kansas bill, and brand its authors as seilisii and unprincipled agitators and tricksters let them vote for the nominees of the Americau party. These are the issues presented to the peo ple, and to be determined by hem at the polls on Monday next. We do not doubt the decision which they will render. The American party, by its opposition to the Kansas bill, openly avowed, for the first time, in this canvass, has forfeited all the claim it ever had to the sympathy or support of southern men —and the result of the impending election will be a verdict of condemnation, more decisive and more overwhelming than any whieh the people of Georgia have ever pronounced against it.

This incident has been dwelt upon in the press as a proof of a more conciliatory feeling to wards England now growing up in high places in Russia ; but the inference is as incorrect as the supposed fact. Though the languages are the same, pains, indeed, are taken to specify that it is not the English but the American"language which is meant ;*and in the ukase itself the word “Ameri can” is added in parentheses after the word “Eng lish,” and is in fact a proof, not of any increased iove of the English, but that the inhabitants of Siberia —particularly those on the banks of the A moor—recognise that their future prosperity will depend much rather on their dealings with the United States to the East, by means of the A moor, than with Germany on tiie West, with a whole con tinent of land lying between them. In furtherance of this very evident prospect of future trade, the Government is in other quarters also making great exertions to develop all the resources of that part of the empire, by organizing a flotilla on the river and a fleet on the Pacific. On the Tur, Tobol, Irtisch, and Obi, there are already a number of steamers engaged in the conveyance of goods and passengers. On the A moor, as vet, tiie traffic has still to lie developed, but much is expected from the treaty that has lately been concluded with Ja pan.” _ Book-Keehxg in Double Entry.—On tiie ex amination of Stephen Bronson, Jr., charged w ith defrauding a bank in Chicago, of which lie was cashier, Judge Wilson, one of the victims, was a witness, gave the following important piece of evidence: Have never examined the books to ascertain in regard to the accounts: witness would not attempt any such thing. He regarded the plan of keeping books by double entry as a scheme for swindling. False entries could be made, and the best of book keepers could not detect them. Witness would as soon undertake to work the difficult problem in fluxions or conic sections as to unravel the myste ries of double entry book-keeping. If the books show a balance for Bronson, they are wrong, that’s all, and if the people can be swindled injthis way, the double entry svstem should be abolished bv statute. Cincinnati, Sept. 28. —The excitement in con sequence of the unfavorable advices from the East has paralized business in this city.

Cave Johnson, President of the Bank of Tennessee, to a committee of merchants of the city, advising a suspension of specie payments by the bank: Bank of Tennessee, ) Sept. 29, 1857. j T. R. 11. Gardner, and others, of the Committee : Gentlemen: The officers of the Bank of Tennes see received a copy of the resolutions adopted by the merchants arid citizens on yesterday, at the Protection and Insurance office, urging a tempora ry suspension of specie payments by the three old banks of Nashville, and “timely aid to their cus tomers and debtors,” and thought it their duty to submit them to a called meeting of the board of directors, w hich was holdcn this morning in the bank. The board were unanimously of opinion that there existed no necessity or propriety in the adop tion of the policy indicated in your resolutions by this bank. The Bank of Tennessee is able and ready to meet all demands against it whenever and how ever made, and would not, therefore, be justified or excused for refusing payment of its notes when demanded. With such abundant crops, soon to be ready for market, and commanding such high prices, the pressure in the money market cannot fail to be of short duration. The’shipments of the products of the State so much in demand in every section of our country, will furnish ample means to our mer chants and citizens to meet the demands against them without resort to such a doubtful remedy as suggested. The Bank of Tennessee has at all times given such aid to its customers and debtors by maintain ing its circulation and keeping up its line of dis counts as the condition of the bank justified. The same course will be pursued in future. I am, very respectfully, Ac., C. Johnson, President. From the Baltimore Sun, Sept. 30. Extra Session of the Pennsylvania Legis lature. The following is the proclamation of Governor Pollock, calling an extra session of the Pennsyl vania legislature: a serious financial revulsion has oc curred, resulting in the suspension of specie pay ments by the banks of this and other States of the Union, and the failure of many long established commercial houses, leading to the destruction of confidence, and to the general embarrassment and depression of trade, and threatening to afl'ect dis astrously the credit of the Commonwealth, and the great industrial interestsof the people : And whereas, an occasion so extraordinary re quires prompt and efficient action to relieve an alarmed and suffering comninmity : Therefore, 1, James Pollock, Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by virtue of the powers conferred on me by the Constitution, do hereby convene the General Assembly of this Commonwealth, and require the members of the Senate and House of Representatives to meet in their respective houses in the capital at Harris burg, on Tuesday, the sixth day of October, A. 1). 1857, at 12 o’clock at noon of that day, then and there to take into consideration, and adopt such measures of relief in the premises as the present exigency may seem to them, in their wisdom, to demand. In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the great seal of the Common wealth to be affixed, at Harrisburg, this 28th day of September, in the year of our Lord 1857, and of the independence of the United States the eighty-second. By the Governor : Andrew G. Curtin, Secretary of the Commonwealth. The Ledger remarks ou this proclamation : The efforts of the members when they meet should be directed to a resumption of specie pay ments at the earliest practicable period. An inde finite suspension would be an extended evil. The community believe that suspension has been forced upon the banks as a temporary measure, and sound policy should induce the banks so to regard it, and use every means in their power to place them selves in a proper position bv resuming at the earliest day. The Philadelphia Inquirer, in defending the call of the extra session, says : It ts probable that on Saturday iust twenty thou sand hands in the city of Philadelphia were either dismissed or received only part payment of their wages. The reader may well imagine the incon venience that must have been experienced under these circumstances. In Frankford and Muna yunk, for example, nearly all the mills were stop ped, while we are told that in Reading fifteen hun dred workmen were dismissed, and the same num ber in Lancaster. This lamentable condition of affairs must be terminated as speedily as possible. It ts not worth while at the present moment to en ter into any elaborated exposition as to the cause. The discussion of that subject may be postponed with propriety for months. What we now desire are measures of relief; and hence an extra session of the St%te legislature has been deemed advisa ble. Meanwhile, the banks .should not only act with harmony amongst themselves, but should ex tend all the aid in their power to their customers. This course is absolutely indispensible. important action of the banks. The Presidents of the various Philadelphia hanks on Monday held a meeting, and decided up on the following important measures : “1. A suspension of specie payments on all notes, large and small. 2. The prompt issue of their own notes of the smaller denominations for checks, and all other obligations against them. 3. An increase of discount to their customers, with the object of affording immediate relief.” Jti regard to the third proposition, there maybe different opinions as different desires actuate those who entertain them. It is not calculated to effect an early resumption, and the legislature should authorize no movement which will tend to delay beyond a limited and reasonable period that desi rable event. It is manifest to the commonest in telligence that the banks cannot resume till they have reduced their business, and increasing the loans is not such a reduction. So says the ledger. From the Springfield Republican. Firemen—-Our Athletes. The firemen are fast superseding the military in public estimation. Their musters are more inter esting and attractive, and draw together a much more respectable crowd. It is noteworthy how rapidly the fire department has risen in position and importance within a dozen years. Men who were too proud or too lazy “to train,” or too cow ardly to meddle with villainous saltpetre, used to betake themselves to the engine company as a place of refuge. The engine men were then, with exceptions, the shirks of society. Now our fire companies embrace the strong, adventurous, pub lic spirited young men of every community briming over with vigor and life, that longs for activity and excitement. The New York company that visited us the other day was composed of stalwart, muscular young men- none of your pale, thin, shaky fellows, such as may be swept up by thousands in that city— but well-framed and well-knit, sinewy men, strong enough to go behind ihe plough, or before the mast, or to “whip their weight in wild cats,” if they fell in with the varmint, and not think that they had done anything extraordinary either. In fact, the firemen everywhere are the real bone and muscle of the community. They take a just pride iti the cultivation and display of the strength and agility required in their duties—duties that are al ways hard and often difficult and perilous. There are exploits of heroism almost nightly performed at tires, here and there, that require as great cool ness and self-possession, as high personal courage and self-sacrifice, as any encounter upon the battle field—exhibiting, indeed, ft heroism of a higher order, unstimulated by the frenzy of passtou or thirst for blood. We have lately had something to say of the ne-' cessity of physical education. It is becoming a favorite topic with the press, and we rejoice in this as an indication that it is about to receive the prac tical attention it deserves. It occurs to us that our firemen are in the best position and have about them the readiest facilities to take the lead in this work of physical culture. Let them make the halls of their engine houses gymnasiums. Let them adopt the muscular drill and practice of the Ger man Turners. Let them become the athletes of our new - civilization, a civilization which seeks a sound body as well as a sound mind. We are well aware that in some of our engine companies the social element has been perverted to bad ends, aud jolly companionship has ended in personal vice and degradation. On this account many of the best men in the community have been inclined to look upon the fire companies as a curse to the young men. It is a sad fact that many young men have been ruined by intemperance and dissi pation, the first lessons of which were taken in the engine house. But we have reason to hope that these evils will be outgrown, aud we can see that the systematic cultivation of manly vigor will tend directly to the removal of low and unworthy aims. The well-developed, strong-armed man is more likely, other things being equal, to be temperate and virtuous than the effeminate and soft-muscled apology for a man. St. Louis, Sept. 29.—80gg, Miltenberger A Co., bankers, have closed. Their assets are ample. Cards are published, signed by a large number of the wealthiest citizens, guaranteeing the solven cy of Lucas A Co., and Rentck A Peterson, and assuring depositors of the safety of their de posits.

It is decidedly the best and most popular in use for beautify Ing, preserving, restoring and strengthening the hair, relieving diseases of the skin, and removing scurf, dandruff’, and all eruptions and feverish heat from the scalp.
