The Rey. gentleman also lectured on Slavery pq Wednesday evening.. On this subject. he was more at Imme than the preyiens evening, and handled his thethe with an ability and force that we have rarely listened - to. His lecture was not a rehash of former arguments, but was a new and practical review of all the fea tures of the slave traffic,—social, moral, r...ligiuus and political, and we think his remarks on the subject as connected with Ilse Clough, were pnansryerable• The 'peeler w i ns frequently_ applaudeid r ing his temuFks, and at the closda the lecture, at the suggestion of - John S.

Why cannot the resolution 'of Judge Pm speedily receive the favora-! ble action of our legh , lators ?—Forney's; Press. We should say, the reason why the res clution of Judge Bell ought not to reeeivp I favor in our Legislature, is because the Legislature of Virginia has failed to IT bake the cowardly attack of one of their bullies, on the Hon. John Rickman--,one of Pennsylvania's noblest, bravest sons—, the insult to whom should he felt and re pelled by every citizen of this State who "thinks the rights bencle4 down by Revo lutionary sires are worth preservieg, we had the hop of occupying a seat in the Senate, we should move to amend Judge T3Efit i . znsqlqtren sq as to iectuest the members of Congress from this, State to deumnd the immediate expulsion of gdmendson from his seat in Congreis.

The State Cqqven Inn Again. Those journals which advocate the nomination of delegates to fihicago by the State Convention, which meets at If arrisliurg to-day (Wednesday), oite the example of New York in vindication of their position. Weliave honestly oom batted their plan on the ground of prin ciple, and without knoWing or oaring whether oar position was acceptable to probable than that, when meeting on equal terms", the duty elected representatives of those interest; personal and otherwise, would harmonize. But snob harmony cannot be expected where rivalries are subdued, not by mutual.concessions, but. by enforced submissions. This harmony can be found in a body. of independent delegates chosen by the several Congress- distilets ; but it cannot be found where 'arge numbers meet simply to try , their voting power upon one another, asi -is necessarily dime in a great State Cllll veution.• I. . • . But while the views we expreSs may Ibe supported by every Consideration of eXpedieney, we vet rest them Mainly upon the ground of sound princi ple. It is clearly, right that the people @tumid be brought as near us possible to the National . Nominating Conventions. Those Conventions are agencies that are bad enough in their best estate; and they' . may be so constituted as to be wholly loathsome and without authority. The best that• can be done is - to have their: members chosen --by the Congressional Districts. -To this approximation to the direct popular .voice we at least can come; and we mgertain np doubt that if the question weve left to the - voters offthosei Districts to say whether Clint should be the universal practice, we should hear no dissenting suffrage Whatever. The plan is in itself so reasonable, so manifestly proper in all respects. that everybody spontaneously declares that it is the only true and fair mode. -Of course there will' be foul play and pael;ing sot4 , tirnes, even" then; ; but it is the Lest resource which the Convention system leaves us to get an epressiou of the wish of the' people generally."
