evident there would be full delegations from
all portions of tbe State. The respectability
influence, and Democracy of these who were

epoukera.
At three o'clock the Committee on Kcso
lutious annotiucMtl themselves ready to report,
wbeu Colonel Forney read the address aud
resolutions as follows :
K'-Holved, That regarding this ('"iivci.tioii at to all in
leiua and puipe a Ooiivenlloli rcpit-cutng the patriotic
M-tilitiienl of the DemH-ralie purtv, and a.-owiugourselve

tiuths winch have heretotore made llie Deinvcrary a eon

I, lie of Ihe Stales ol the Union.
Kesilved, That this Ctniventiou moKt Solemnly declares
its warm uttaclunei.t 1 1 the t'lllou of the States, lo main
tain wltirh It pledges all its powers ; and that lor this end,
it is out duty, mid the duly of the De uocrntic party every
wheie, to watch over und uprise everv infraction itf those
ptincipies which eoaslitula the only hasis of tliut I'nion,
b'U-uae u faithful oltservunce of them iu only secure its
existence uad the puhlie happiness.
K;solvcd, That holding the Dcaerai Administration re
sponsible foi cert-tin giav-' depart me from puhlie daly und
Dula:rutic principles, we are bound to regurd the Admin
istiutiou as having foileiled the cnitiileuce of the people,
nd to denounce it as unworthy of the supputt of the Dtia
cratie party.
Keso ved, That when the Demucfntio party, ill
wasilaniiy uniiuitted. iu Naiioual, altate, and County
Conventions, to the lunduineuta! principle, that the people
of the Territories, like those of the States, were to be left
perfectly free to decide for theun-elvea whether slavery
hould oi shoeld not exist within their limits, suhiect only
to the Constitution of the U'nhed Stales, we entered into
a solemn covennut, which, Notwilhstandiag the eonduct of
faithless public servunts, we hold ourselves bourn! lo niam
tuiu at all huzaul, aud lo curry out iu letter und spirit.
Kesflvatl, That the attempt of tlie tieneral Administra
tion to disregard this covenant, und !u its steud to erect a
dcs,otic teat to compel obedience to disunites subversive
of Itepuhlieau liberty, wua not the work ol the represen
tatives uf the Democratic party, but of men who had re
aolved upou the destruction of thai organization for theii
own ambitious pufposes ; and that this repudiation uf
Tight and endoiseiin'iit of wrong was tilly followed by
remorseless war of Federal power upon Stale sovereign
ty, and by an airoguut proscription of all Democratic or
g iiiiiuiioue and DcunK;rutiu chumoions whu would not
follow the shameless example.
Kuaolved, Tlwt wd deliberately and heartily re-assert
and i-eudors the great principle of Popular Sovereignty
and noii-uilerveiition, us well iu the Territories as iu Hie

that every elTott to force the Deinocmlic party of this
country uptaiauy other platform s'.rnuld barebukedas a
preiutratioii for huuiusr disgrace in the first place, and for
lasting and deserving defeat in the second.
Kesolved, That this principle of poprlur sovereignty and
lion-inter vcnlion, lying, as it does at the basis of our free
institutions, enunciated and accepted, Nona and South,
by Lcgislatuiua and courts, by Congreasca and candidates,
auusliluted ia IboU for an absclete Congressional rule ami
re-asserted iu I Sot. afler the repeal ot the Missouri Com
promise, is the oulv priucinle that will foievar icinovelha
qucstiou ol slavery from the Italia of the Nalioual Legisla

and the navy ; aud that, regarding the resolutions of the
Convention wkicu assembled at llarrisbuig, oa the 16lh of

hereby, repudaite the pUilform and caudididatee ofthut
Couvenliun. . .

of that portion of the Union, candor eouipel u lo auy lliat

Kesolved, That the welfare of the country imperatively
demands a jealous resisumce by the people ef the corrupt

warrantably, exercised : thai wearekeenlv alive in tha

n.vuc party nre preaicted Horn the piostltutlna
of the vast pnliuuage of the Uenernl Government to the ac
complishment of partisan purposes; that under the present
Niilional Ailinniiairnton, the worst fear of the patriot
talesmen of the earliest day of the Republic, on tin sub
ject, have been realised ; and thai the evenie ol Ihe last
two years buve sadly illustrated the truth of the remark of
James Bechanaii iu lt-27, in his speech against Ihe prosti
tution of Federal patronage to political ends hy the admin
istration of John q. Adams, that "the nature f man ia the
same under republics and under monarchie. The history
of the human race proves Hint liberty can never long be
preserved wilhoul popular Jealousy. It is the condition of
us enjoyment. Our ruler must be narrowly watched."
Kesolved, That we are alike opposed lo the Northern and
Southern disuiiinnista, regnrdiug them as nntutal allies, one
to the other, each appealing to the passion Bud prejudice
V. - ow" ec,'"'i "gainst the peace and harmony f the
I uion, and demanding Congressional intervention for it
section alone, contrary to the right of the people or the
Territories lo govern t icinrelves.
Kesolved, In the language ol Stephen A. Douglas, "It
matter not what way the Supreme Court may hereafter
decide as to the abstract question whether Slavery may or
limy not go into a Territory tiudei the Constita linn ; Ihe
people have the luwful meune to iutnaluce it or exclude it,
as they plunsc, for the reason that slaveiy cannot en 1st a
day or an hour anywhere unless it i supported by local
police regulations. Those police rrgulntions can only be
established by local legislation ; Bild if the people ate opio
cd to slavery, they will elect representatives' to that body
Who will, by unfneiidly legislation, effectually prevent the
introduction of it into their midst. Jl, op the contrary,
they ute fur it, their legislation will fuvor its extension.
Hence no matter what the decision of the Supreme Court
may be on the abstract question, still the right of the peo
ple to make a slave Tcrntoiy or a free Teruitory is perfect
aud complete under the Nebraska bill."
Jiesotved. That representing, as we believe,
a large majority of the Democratic party of
this State, do hereby most solemnly protest
against the betrayal, abridgment or mutilation
of this great principle of tbe "majority ru
ling," applicable alike "to the Territories tbe
same as tbe States ;" and we therefore reject,
as an innovation and unsound, the resolution
of tbe late Convention that abridges and li
mits tbo right tfftliB people of a Territory to
act in reference to the institution of slavery
to the one particular time when they come
"to organize their State governments;" that
we coulinue to hold to tbe fullest application
of the principle to tbe Territories, and cannot
but express our alarm and astonishment at
its threatened entire destruction, as disclosed
by lendinp; southern Senators in tbe recent
d bate in tbe Senate of the Uuited States.
llesotvcd. That we are atterly opfeed to
the acquisition of Cuba, unless it cau be ob
tained by sucb fair and bouorable means as
will bo consistent with tbe dignity and fume
of the Republic.
licsnli-nl, That adhering to the theory of a
frugal and economical administration of tbe
General Government as taught by tbo fathers
of tbe Democratic party, yet tbo necessary
expenditures of that Government imperative
ly demand a revision of the present revenue
laws ; and that in such revision we are in fa
vor of such a distinct recognition of our man
ufacturing, agricultural und mechanical inter
ests us will rescue the Government from a re
sort to direct taxation, uud permanently pro
tect the lalmr and industry of tbe couutry.
llcsalced, That thd administration of Win.
F. Fucker, Governor of 1'eiinsylvania, meets
with our entire and cordial approvul, cbaiac
terized, us it has tiecu, by an honest aud care
ful guardianship of the interests of tbe peo
ple of our Commonwealth ; and that we com
mend him, not only for bis opposition to cor
rupt legislation, but, also, because be was
unionist the Grst to endorse tbe great princi
ple of popular sovereignty, which lies at the
very heart ot our tree luslitutious, and be
cause be has been most fearless iu maintain
ing it ; aud that the attempt of the Federal
administration to defame the private and pub
lic character of Governor Fucker meets with
our most uuquulilied and iudimnt condem
nation. A'tWm, That the Convention entertain
the highest admiration for tbe Hon. Stephen
A. Douglas, tbu heroic stutesmun, Senator ol
Illinois ; that bis great ability, bis bold, man
ly and decided character, his Bteadfust ad
herence to tbe principles and pledges of the
party, particularly iu reference to the govern
ment of territories ; all deuiaud for biin the
thanks and continued confidence of the whole
Democracy, and ot all true nun.
licsnh-td. That we earnestly invoke the co
operation of Democrats of ail the Slates of
the L'uion in the great organized movement
inaugurated at the State capital of Feuutjl
vania this day.
Jiesolved, That we recommend the ap
poiutmeutby the 'resident of this coim-u-of
a Democratic State Commitee, to consist
of fifty sis members ; and tbut the question of

the call of another Democratic State Con

said Central Committee may be called by the
chairman or uuy live members thereof.

Tbe Convention adjourned at six o'clock
GT'l'lio following Is an extract of the
speech delivered by the Hon Johu Hickman,
of Chester County at tbe lute Democratic
convention :
Mr. Fkksidekt: 1 am glad to meet you
to join you upon au occasion so interesting
aud important as the present oue. 1 hearti
ly endorse tbe propriety of ibis convention.
i us uasv ouiruge recently aivumpiea nere oy
tbe minions of despotic federal authority
merits a stern rebuke, but not more than tbe
weakness aud heurtletsuekt which Conceived
and commanded it. 1 love aud adriiiro the
honesty aud courage with wbicb Gov. Fucker
has appreciated aud discharged all bis public
duties. To him and bis able and accomplish
ed A ttoruey Geueral and Secretary of the
Commonwealth, are our thank eminently due
fur a manifestation of that devoted patriotism
which impelled them to consider their country
tirst, and Consequences afterwards. Jl is uot
surprisiug that political prostitution should
condemn it. Tho popular affection, however
will be to them a shield more protective than
fortresses of grauite and of iron. But 1 de
sire to speuk of other matters.
At this day, resolutions complimentary t
the present uational administration may be
pardoned, when proceeding from official syco
phauts, but they can do neither good nor
barm. The history of Mr. Buchanan' exe
cutive life has already beeu writtea, and too
plainly, to Le obliterated by brited eulogy, or
to be misunderstood by tbe people ol this
State aud nation. Neither politieal conjura
tion nor party magic can make them forget
the wicked violation of pledges, the arrogance
of bloated power, tbe prostitution of Con
gress, tbe profligacy of department, or tha
rapid and marked encroachment upon popu
lar constitutional right. Judgment, bnal
judjmeut, ha been camly and deliberately
r.uua...! ........ . I. : . . .. . -
i"' uyuu lui treason to me democracy,
this assassination of common honesty, and it
is as irreversible a the decree or God. It
ia wie, therefore, in this convention, to speak
the truth plaiuly, and to avoid tbe folly of an
attempt to cover op an audacious criminality
we must all condemn.
By tbe action of the 3Mh Congres. tbe
complaints made by tha resident of Kansas
were ascertained to be true. Although tb
South, by tba legislation or 1824, was pledged
to maintain tba domestic sovereignly or tba
territories, a portion or their people from
Missouri entered oppn the toil or Kansas, and
by fore and fraud, seized tb law making
power, stilled tba voice of tha majority, and
enacted statutes disgraceful to tba aga and
nation. This fact, when legally revealed,
made a deep impression opon tb peblio
mind, and Mr. Buchanan found it necessary,
in order to carry tha election io bia own
(State, to pledg himself distinctly to tb
maintenanea nf I ha rtne.lrina nf nnnuiav mvsr.
igoty, and to defend tb rights ol those wbo
baa beno thus rntblessly despoiled. I will
not pretend to indicate the particular weak
ness in bia nature that induced him to turn
the hand of tbe suicide against bis own fame,
as it matter little whether it arose from
timidity, a fear of bis enemiea outweighing a
love of bi friends, a careless disregard of fair
dealing, or a weak aud puerile vauity. It is
enough to know that he deceived all our
hope, turned with tbe blackBt ingratitude
upon that self tacridcing friendship by which
be reached tbe goal of bis feverish ambition,
and sought by all the means wiibio the reach
of drunken and staggering authority, to dis
grace every man whom he could uot debauch.
Suddenly, and as by tbe touch of the wand of
the magician, he became transformed from
the sympathiser with down-trodden freedom,
to tbe open and shameless de leader of aggres
sive and law-derying slavery.
The halls of the uatior.al legislature were
turned yito marts for conscience ; be publish
ed his interpretations of party principles and
platforms with the arrogance of a dictator;
and commanded his subordinates iu office, und
bis coward elates, the reiterate and ) rocluim
bis bulls of parly excommunicatiuu against
all who were rash enough to follow fin iude
pendeut judgment. These acts of themselves
ure enough lo sever ullegiunre. It would be
an ill-shupeu mauhood which could tolerate
them iu silence. Bulbtcuuse we denonuce
tbem, we are anathematised ns rebellious.
Sir, we will see where the rebellion will eud.
It will eud iu tbe supremacy of tbe laws ; in
the integrity ol the constitution ; in the puri
fication of parties ; in tho sworn loyalty of
executives ; and tbe vigorous growth, materi
al greutness, aud eterual dominnnco or the
North. That is where it will end. l'opular
sovereignty, iuvoked by tho South, will be
defended by u., and it shall unfold tbe veiled,
yet dimly discovered J stiny of this great re
public. We are buttlling for tba rip: bt, for
tbe spirit of tbe institutions our fathers es
tablished ; let us feci that we are doing this,
and we wili accomplish the victpry of our cen
tury. Not a mere nuked triumph at the polls
but the greut success afterwards tbe un
trammelled self govei nment of uiun ; the dedi
cation of a continent to consistent libeity.
More recently, however, when the recom
mendations of the 1'resideLt were thoughts
to favor the manufacturing and aggricultural
Stales wbeu the propriety of a new turiu
law was suggested and when tbe so-called
1'emocrntic members ol the senate auu
House of Representatives, and even the Cabi
net officers, raised tbe voice of denunciatory
opposition, it was all riiihl, and rebellion be
came loyalty. And yet l'etiusylvauians see
nothing wrong iu this ; nay, they commend
it. Chains never clanked upon the limbs of
beings more servile and debased. We might
pei buna, be ublu to oiieu their eyes to the
truth, uud loosen their totiRiies to utter it, by
continuing them in office uuder a new ad in i u-
istration, govei ued uy a mora bomgu pi-licy.
II parlies with such iilastic notious. shall be
able to grusp the control of our government.
then must the stront; empire ol the .Noilti be
dwurfud to barrenness, and eighteen millions
of white slaves here, be added to the four
millions of black slaves yonder. Tbut is in
deed a strunge illustration of the advantages
ol Iree government which proclaims a necessi
ty for crushing out the inherent power of a
I eo j by fashioning their ii stitutiotis fcr
them, requiring it to be sanctioned, aud yit
allows and encourages a denial of law by
which hIoiih a bankrupt treasury cau La re
plenished, and bocest debts pu.d.
But, sir, we cburge fulher upon the admin
istration of Mr. Buchanan oue of tho main
cuuses by which we have reached the point
of ualiouul insolvency, a reckless prodigality
in the expenditures of the public money, and
a prevailing vice io the departments of tbe
government. It is a gross mistake to sup
pose that out increased expenses are owing
lo an expansion of territory and thu removul
of our frontier. Thu administration of Mr.
Van Bureti. wild an annual outlay of thirty
seven millions of dollars, was pronounced ex
travagant ; now our expenses are closo upon
one hundred millions a year. But we buve
got used to talking of millious without stop
ping to consider the magnitude of the figures.
Why, sir, all the horses and mules iu this
country, numbering over six thousand, would
scarcely draw, in silver, the money required
to foot our government bills for a single year.
Do you enquire why this is soT 1 will tell
you Wo havo abuudoued our former und
better practice. When Mr. Jefferson was
1'reeident, be required honesty and cupubility
in bis appointees j now, subordinates are se
lected for their knowinn lack of independence,
conscience and will. There was a time, which
our fathers remember, when to be the head of
a department, u Secretary of tbe Treasury,
or of Wur, or of tbe Navy, required greatness
and inspired confidence ; now a man of very
moderate dimensions will suffice for either
place. Au ex Governor or effete Senator
will al ays answer for the position, provided
he has the marks ol gyves upon hi legs, and
does not know too much. 1 think we will be
able to furnish one hereafter who limy claim
by a double title. 1 hazard little in saying
there is now more money squandered and
stolen yeurly, than it required during the ad
ministrations of Mudisou, Monroe, and the
younger Adams, to support the government.

vama Kaii.uoau. A series of experiment
are uuw being made on tbe l'euusylvania
ltuilroad at Altoolia, on the mouutain grade
under the supet visiou of W. J. l'almer, Ksq.,
of Fbiludelphia. '1 he object is to lest the
capacity of engines of different built to gener
ate thu greatest amount of sleum from tbe
least amount of Coai, and to consume smoke.
rive engines are beentested, namely, a "Win-
an Camel Back, one Built by Norris, aud
rebuilt by Baldwin, with DempGelds boiler;
one rebuilt at Altoona, with smoke consum
er ; one built by Norris, with l'bleger' boil
er and oue equipped with'Gill & Co's smoke
consumer, by Mr. Graer, master of machinery
at Altoona. A train ol nine cars loaded, are
being hauled by each engine from Altoona to
the top of tho grade, twelve miles. Tbe
amount or coal is accurately measured that
each engine requires to make the trip. So
far, the Winans engine bas used tbe least
coal, by about fifteen bushels. Last week a
tram ol cars was tried on h mouuiaiu grade,
with Lougbridje' car brake. The train was
bandied very satisfactorily by tbe engineer;
a number of stops were made in very short
distances, on tbe heaviest grades. The Com.
pany are equipping their fast Line eociue
and cars with Ibis safeguard lo their trains.
Tba result of the trials above noted will be
made public in a few days, and will be looked
for with no little interest. l'ittburg l'ont.

Sunbury, April 16, 1H50.- ly.
Scrofula, or King's Evil,
is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor, lleing in the circulation, it
pervades tho wholo body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. JCo organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one w hich it may
not destroy. Jhe scrofulous taint is vuriously
caused by nv.Tcitriul dtscnFc, low- living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the dcprcsiiii vices, und,
above all, by the venereal infection. "What
ever he its ori;in, it is hereditary in tho eon
stitution, descendinR " from parents to children
unto the third und fourth generation j" indeed,
it seems to bo the rod of Him who suy., " I
will visit tho iniquities of the father upon
their children."
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lunfrs, liver, mid internal organs, is termed
tubercles ; in tho glands swellings; and on
tho surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu
tions not only sttlfer from scrofulous com
plaints, hut they have far Jess power to with
stand the attucks of other diseases ; conse
quently, vast numbers perish by disordcrj
-w hich, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Must of tho consumption which de
cimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination ; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of ull tho organs, arise ' from or
arc aggravated by tho same cause.
One quarter of ull our people are scrofulous ;
their persons are invuded hy this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must rcuovuto
the blood by an alterative medicine, and iu
vigorato it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply m
AVER'S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,
the most effectual remedy w hich tho medical
skill of our times can devise fur this every
w-hcre prevailing and fatal malady. It is com
bined from the most active renieiiials that have
been discovered for the cxpurgntion of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed tor tho cure of
not only scrofulu, hut ulso those other ulfec
tions which arifc from it, such as Eiuttivb
and Skim T)iskases, St. Anthony' Finn,
Hose, or Kiiysii'f.t.as, 1'imi'I.f.s, 1'istulm,
Ulotches, IIi.mns and Itoii.s, Tumoiui, Tetteh
and Salt Hiieim. Scai.d Head, ltixowonv.
I Uiir.t MATiH.M, SnuiiMTicand Mkuccuiax Dis
eases, Dropsy, Dyspepsia, Deiiility, and,
indeed, all Complaints akisino mom Vitia
ted or Impure Bloud. The popular belief
in impurity of the blood " is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. Tho
pnTtleular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa
rilla is to purity and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible m
contaminated constitutions.
Ayer's Cathartic Pills,
FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYSIO,
are so composed that disci sc witlun the rane of
their action can rarely uithstnnd or evade them
Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse,
and invigorate every portion of the human organ
ism, eorrecting its diseased action, and restoring
it healthy vitalities. As a couacquenco of thr-so
properties, tho invalid who is bowed down with
mm or pnysicul Ueuility is astoiuslieu to nnu lit
icalth or energy restored by a remedy at once to
simple and inviting.
Not onlv du they cure the every-tlny complaints
of every body, but also many' formidable and
dangerous diseases. The agent below named is
pleased to furnish gratis niy American Almanac,
containing certificates of their cure and directions
for their use iu the following complaints : t'usliit

FOR THE UAPIU CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness,
Croup, Bronchitis, Incipient Consumpa
tion, aud for tbo relief of Consumptive
Patient in advunccd stages of tho
diseases
So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu
merous are tlie rase of it cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in person pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
ana even desperate disease of the lung by its
use. When once tried, it superiority over every
other medicine of it kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its vii tue are known, the
publio no longer hesitate what antidote to employ
for the distressing and dungcrou affection of the
pulmonary organ that are incident to our climate.
V'hile many inferior remcdie thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the alnicted they can never forget, and pro
duced cures too numerous and too' reiuarkuble to
be furgutteu.
