Perhaps It was looking for entirely too"
much to expect"; any thing like the enunci
alien ofia wise and Statesmanlike policy
from the motley assemblage of fanatics and
political adventurers who composed and
controlled the late Republican State Con
vention at Ilarrisbnrg." That party has
shown in all positions an otter unfitness to
rule. Its real leaders from the time it first
came into existence to curse and ruin this
country, have hien the radical fanatics of
New Etigland.. Rem:, in Pennsylvania it
has been little more than en exotic, at times
succeeding, by moans of fraud and others
improper appliances, to a nitishreen growth
of greatness, which temporarily overshad
owed what was and still is the real political
sentiment of our people. Even here seine
of its most prominent loaders have been
coloniied New England Yankees. Thad

That organisation has never been in sympa

people of this Suite. Every success which
it has gained het-alas been. attained by
Imposition upon the masses by mearteAt:

it has succeeded in carrying the State, done
so by means of the modtiiiidefaced misrep

most gigantic and unblushing frauds upon

Do they call this sustaining the government ?
In the third and 'fourth resolutions ii‘oon
oentrated all the malignity. of the most
desperate radicals. They would keep up
huge standing armies for years to come,'
complete' the bankruptcy of the nation, and
Impose tuirthems upon the people more
grievous than could,,be borne, for the sake
of 'carrying out their mad designs. What
tilde designs are cats be easily learned
from the ueleraa . cce of' those who are the
real live leaders of the Republican party.
There is not' ono otaktieeffrom Cane, who
disgraced the' office of Chief Jueticeeby his
electioneering tour andhis dietempered
harangues to promiscuous crowds of ne
grecs, down to the most insignificant Abo
litionist of New England origin, who is not
in favor of negro eutlrage and negro equal
ity. It is true that. the Itepublicah Con
vention, wit 'met at Ifarrisbut g on last
Thursday, did not plant itself squarely
upon OW 'fume. It feared frr do'so, know
ing that with ouch an open avowal of its
belief inwhaLiethe roost abiolute lite_
in the creed of the Abolition party, that it
would he completely overwhelmed before
the uprising of the indignant manes of Pek i '
sylvanin. So with the usual diabetics
trickery of the party, the doctrine of negro
suffrage was only covertly endorsed in the
concluding clause of the third resolution.
Even the Philadelphia ledger, a moderate
Republican paper / is compelled to adMit
that there is 4 designed double meaning on
the subject of negro - suffrage couched in
that cautiously worded third resolution,
It Ishys:
'The ambiguity of the resolution is in the
phrase which requires that the now oonsOi
tution of the Southern -States she scour°
all men within Weir border' "their inalien•
able rights to life, liberty and the pursuit
of tinniness."' This
. may or may not be a
declaration fuser of negro suffrage.
Can any mau of sense dotqt for n e moment
as to what was the real' intention of the
framers of the resolutioni t Is it not plain
that. an effort is thus dovertly made to en
dot& the doctrines of negro suffrage and
negro equality without openly appearing
to do so ?
Are Lhe people iff this Stale ready to be
thus duped and befooled ? Can they giSe
their support .to such a platform ? Are
they ready to vote for negro ouffrage.and
negro equality, and by their votes to call
for their mnintenanoe for years to conic of
a..bqge elanding army to force such a con
dition upon the people of the South That
is what the platform of the Republican par
ty of Pennsylvania proposes to do. Will
the white voters of the Slate, the lutuest

all the burthene of natation, endorse such
principles ? ,It is for them to say--Lan

THE TEMPER SOUTH
, The followiog extract from the Washing
ton eortespnadence of the New York Ex
press may serve to show the temper of the
people South, and how they still regard the
Yankees: ,
"As to the temper of the Southern peo
ple, it may safely be asserted that the war
has not increased their love - for the Yankees.
The Virginians, always a remarkable race,
have come out of this contest the most note
worthy people of modern times. Their ex
ticaordiurvy gallantry and skill as soldiers,
their wonitlerful powers of enduranco v and
their remarkable stoicism under theletua
paralleled losses and privations, all unite to
stamp them as s race of men such as the
world has seldom seen. Many of them
doubtedly regret that their 'State should
have been forced intolhe rebellion. Many
of the:nine doubt, silently bewail the de
struction of their -ancestral homes and the
loss of 'Children and 'brothers, - doubly en
deared to them by their sufferings fit the
same cause ; but from their air a nd manner
no one would suspect them of being a con:,

"One tf the greatcharges which the Dee

that those accused of resisting it, if arrested
b? , the military, should be "forthwith de

accused of this very offense, under this very
act, were, in open contempt of the law,lm
prieened In the guard house at Camp Cur
tin, tried and sentenced by "military com
mission." Do net charge on the 'military
power the base note done in its "name. The
military power of our country-has its sphere,
and it has filled it grandly; it needs no
triumph over the eivil.inetitutione of our
country. , The gallant soldiers of the war
are soiled with no complicity is the sate of
petty despotiem done by Secretaries of War,
politicianada civil office. You, men of UV
rieburg, have seen the guard house of the
the neighboring camp tenanted, not by dis
orderly et:Niers or rebel priioners, but by
editors, and farmers, andanen in every walk
of life, robbed of-there civil rights, and sub
ietit to the "lynch law" that is ‘administer
tered by military °emelt/miens. For all
this there could be urged no plea of " mill-
Mry necessity," such as may leave a emu
sander in the field of war no limit but his
own will In the exertion of his own power.
The plea of military necessity" could not,
with truth oe decency, be urged in Pennsyl
vania, where no civil court was closed by
armed rebellion, nor the due course of law
obstructed, save by those who made that
plea the pretext for their mote. These mats
were done from no "necessity," civil or mil
itary. They wore prompted by that bad
principle in human nature which the laws
and constitution of free governments are
meant to curb. Shakepeare peseribee it
when he says:
"Man, proud man
Drost in a little brier authority
Plays mach fantastic tricks bolero high halcyon'
Ad wake the angels weep."
Your highest interests and the interestsof
your nbildi•en demand that these acts shall
not pass uneondemned, to be treated hereaf
ter as precedents. The higliest duty, now,
of the people of 00 Commonwealth is to
vindicate the majesty of the law. To vindi
cate it at the ballot-box and in the courts of
justice, so quit never again upon the soil of
Pennsylvania, her citizens shall be wanton
ly stripped of the rights that are thejr birth
right by titles older Ann the Constitution,
older than the Deolarationsof Independence.
ABOLITION STATE CONVENTION

nominate oandidates for Auditor and Sur

nni,y, -Mulligan,' a. notorious lit* York
Rug'Sta y rowdy, and Milan, was recently
shot and killed.inilanYranaisee, CaWends,
while suffering fiom an attack of amnia a
pole. Mulligan was not a scientific fighter,
but in rough and tumble fights he had new
er met his match. ire gained his first lau
rels from easily and severely drubbing the
prize fighter, Yankee-Sullivan.
,The , following aceoun,t of his death is
taken from the Nt lr,tanoisco Bulletin:
"After several of his frfends bad declin
ed to undertake thejob, Jack McNabb, a
friend and companion of Mulligan's, at
tempted to accomplish the object in view.
McNabb went up stairs, and as ho advanced
.Mulligan leveled the pistol at his breast...--
McNabb continued to advance, speaking to
.Mulligan in a familiar tone, and tailing him
that Le wanted to take a drink with hint
Iv this way, by coaxing and propiising
drinks, McNabb had nearly reached the
spot where Mulligan was pteildiug, when
the lattir fired-and eliOt Mat, 'the btallanter
log his right breast, near the arm pit., sev
ering an artery, causing an internal homer-
age, from which he (lied in halt en hour
afterward, at Dr. Murphylofftee, to which
ho was immediately taken. At this tints
the excitement about the scene of the tra
gedy was intense, and the streets about the
St. Pranoisco Hotel were blocked up with
human beings drawn thither by the exciting
stories that had eptddd like wildfire Whet
the towri, The police endeavored in vain
to keep til%rn back, representing the danger
that existed with a crazy man armed with a
revolver, and ready to fire at any inoutent
and in any dicootlon. Dut still the crowd
pressed on, every man apparently thinking
lira in so large a crowd his chances of get
ting hit were slim, and t 149, - per sentage
largely in favor of his own safety., ;
Various expedients were next attempted
for dislodging the maniac. The resinc•
of the Catholic clergyman wan brought to
bear, One of the priests, accompanied .by
a oitisen, attempted to reach him by a neigh
reofrlilif he fired-his pistol zit them,
and they were compelled to retreat. Sev
eral attempts to administer drugged liquor
were made, bqt to no purpose.
lout three o'clock officers Ellis and Me
Millen made another tunuecessful *amp
to get hold of klulligan„, but, it having
been abandoned, they were crossing the
street, wpen Mulligan appeared at one of
the windows and bred at them. The bullet
missed the intended mark, but struck an
innocent passer-by, shooting him through
the heart; and - killing him instantly. -The
murdered man was John Hart., the foreman
of the Eureka Hose Company, No. 4. lts
is represented by those who knew him as
having been an estimable young man. His
wife and child died a few weeks since; and
ho leaves no famlly. He has a sister in this
oily who is said to be nearly beieft of rea
son by the sudden shook, and several other
relatives. He bas a- father, mother, and
younger brother residing in New York.
It was now determined by the police that,
as the means of preventing more bloodshed
on the part of innocent persons., Mulligan.
should be shot at sight. Accordingly a
number of the police %rmod themselves with
Minnie ritlei, end took position "conlinnnd
ing front of the house oh Clay !street"!
For a long time Mulligan remained out of
eight of them, and at. the head of the stairs.
A few minutes before four o'clock he went
to the upper story, of the house and linked
out of the window on the Dupont West
side, upon'the trrowd beneath ; he suddenly
wheeled, and enfeied a room on the second
floor, fronting on Clay street. He advanced
to the window, and was about throwing
open the swinging sash, when officer Hop
kins fired from the window opposite and laid
