was taken from your pocket, Mr. President and mine. The most of it was assessed and col lected in the North, not in the South; and nsed by a corrupt Administration in the shape of taxing contracts by levying contributions. Let me tell you some particulars connected with this, as a member of the Investigating Committee on Printing. We made the dis covery that tho contracts were let, and about tiwentv per cent, in many cases of the money paid by the Government for services, went in to the politi ial fund of which Wendell was the banker. Let me refer you to some of the names and circumstances connected with this State, and with which you will be more fa miliar. Oat of sixty nine contractors, a large majority paid money on contracts into this fund. It was ascertained ibut a contractor (13d done about a hundred thousand dollars worth of lithographing for the Government. — He was subpeened but his recollection was so feint that he knew notbiug about his own busi ness. (Laughter.) I observed to tho chair man of the Investigating (Jommitteo that I was not satisfied with bis testimony, to the effect that the boobs were burned. His partner was sent for, and gave liia testimony, 'hat the hooks showed that they paid about twenty thousand dollars out of the one hundred thous and dollars' worth of work, to the party fined. The question asked him was, 'l>o tho books show that?' He replied, k Yes.' Question —Where are the bocks? Answer—lu the office. The clerk was sent for, nod his testimony agreed with that of the latter. Haviug ob tained the books, and being a book keeper, on investigation I found that about twenty thous and out of the one hundred thousand dollars were paid to the officer, and charged to the account of Printing—a mode which they un derstood in order to balance the cash book.— When asked how this could be afforded, the reply was that so much the more was charged for doing the work. Thus, Mr. President, you will see how the money came out of jour and my poeket to furnish moans to those who were engaged in a crusade against the interests and liberties of our country. One of the partici ptnts (Mr. Seaman) was ordered by the House to be put on trial, and the next thiog we heard was that be had gone to Europe. On going back to Washington to frank some documents for you know they compelled me to do that personally, although since they lost Minnesota they have ceased to enforce the rule. 1 found that Mr. SeauuQ had not been put upon bis trial. [Laughter.] Let me relate another fact. Another con tractor handed over, at different times, to Sea man about §20,000, for which he did not take & note, and never expected is back again, but which he culled a loau. When asked, "what did you do with that money?" "Why," said he, "don't put this down as testimony; I used it to carry elections in Pennsylvania. More than double that was spent in 1853, but it did not damage you any"—referring to myself.— 1 1 will assure you I did not give a dollar to your district." I asked him why? He re plied, "when Mr. Buchanan handed tan a let ter, asking me to furnish a thousand dollars to beat you, I told Lim it was no use, and it was only throwing money away." The matter then got into the New York Tri bune and came to Mr. Buchanan's eye. He sent for W enciell and said, "1 want you to de ny the truth of there statements." Wendell replied, "I cannot." He cauie and told me what had taken place. And why was not this testimony published* A majority of that committee was Deiuoerars. But, gentlemen, we have a committee now that will piobe these fellows to the botl< m. It is for ibis wo strug gled, eight weeks, day and uight, for victory, and though you may thick it small, i hope there are geat results to come from it. Wen deil s testimony, lately taken, will show you that he went into the doubtful districts of Pennsylvania and expended large sums of mon ey to defeat u. Whii3t suffering from the sting of guilt for engaging in such transac tions, Mr. Buchanan sent that pious letter to the Pittsburg Centenniary Celebration, rela tive to the use of money in elections, and tried to throw it oS on us. This is the power be hind tiie throne, and which is used in the North to prostrate and crush the liberties of the peo ple. [Applause.] it would take me a whole day to develop this corruption, and I have Ai ly given ouo or two cases as specimens. Wen dell was subsequently brought before the com mittee; alter we had traced enormous sums of money into his hands we asked him to testify. He refused, when we referred him to the law framed by Ritchie, of Allegheny, which gave us power to imprison for contumacy. He came back the next day and testified, and for giving that testimony, and for refusing to go to jail for two weeks, the name of The Union was changed to The Constitution. Wendefl was thrown overboard and' Bowman brought in.— Wendell than threatened ro divulge the whole eonccrn, but just before the meeting of Con gress they gave him a contract which would psy for keeping £quiet. [Great laughter and mmeuse applause.] Gentlemen, 1 am a party man above all considerations, and I believe that the interest of the party which I subscribe 40 is the interest of the country. [Applause.] lam prepared to enter the contest. We have to elect our members of Congress, our Governor, our President, and rescue the con trol of this Government from the hands of the spoilers; for, if they are allowed to retain possession four years more, the machinery of the Government will become more complicated, and it is unlikely that we shall bo able to as sume the power of the Government. Tureats have already been made that, if we elect a He publican President, it will dissolve the Union. Bo we were told if we elected a Speaker.— Luring the last contest for Speaker, scores of speeches were made, declaring that in the event of the election of a Republican Presi dent, the Uuion should be dissolved. Tats threat, Mr. President, and it gives mo pleasure to state it, bas in no fingie instance come from a Southern Oppositionist or Republican, but iu all cases from the Southern portion of the De mocratio party, and acyuieseed in by Northern doughfaces. The object was to scare new be ginners, but lhe result bas been, to scare uo body but the Democrats. I have been in Washington now five yews, and let me say, that the proudest feeling I ever attained is, that during tbe wbcls struggle, this corrupt ; Government, with all its money, pstrouago ami i power, his never succeeded in corrupting and ; bringing to their support one single man be longing to our party. [Applause.] Others j nave been bought by the dozen. [Daughter.] ■ Voices. Tell us something obou.t ilie army fit Utah, WeU, I have a little iofoiuiatiots inn-gird to that, for I have obtained a great dual of experience as well as observation, whilst chas ing up thieves for so many years. This Utah matter was not a war to conquer the Mormons, or else why was it not done? It was a war to conquer the freetoen of Kansas. The Govern ment had not patronage and power euough. It wanted office to bestow upon the relatives of members of Congress. These, gentlemen, are samples of wbal is done at Washington to support this corrupt administration, to defeat your tariff policy Bud crush out freedom from the territories. [Ap plause.] A Voice. What did Hickman say? Hickman said, in the face of the whole ol them, looking at them boldly, "I have been of fered more for my vote on the Lccompton ini quity than 1 urn worth." [Applause.] So will Mr. Raskin of New York, say, md Mr. Adriau, of New Jersey, the last of whom was offered a foreign missiou as ouo of the items. Not a man voted for the Leeompton iniqui ty but Wis paid by contracts, money, office, posiikm, or in some way. Some have been paid twice, uiider the threats of exposing se crets. Such items, for instance, as aa Indian Agency. Mind you, not to go out anions the Indians, but to remain iu the neighborhood of (he White House, and watch what was going en there. [Prolonged applause.] SPEECH OF GOV. POLLOCK. Gentlemen, Mmbets oj this Convention : I thank you for the honor of calling me to preside over this Convention. My only pledge is, that 1 will endeavor to perform the duties of (he position, impartially and fearlessly. We have assembled upon a day full of glo rious memories—a day hallowed as the natal day of him whose name is the synonym of hon or truth and greatuess, of justice, liberty, aud right. In honoring his memory, let us imitute his virtues, practice his precepts, and act out those priucipies of truth auu patriotism, that made his tame imperishable, his name imotor - tal. Thus influenced, we will be prepared to discharge the duties of this couveution in a manner worthy ot our cause aud Common wealth. We are, aud are proud to be citizens of Pennsylvania, yet we cannot ind will not for get that, in right of our Anuricaa nationality;,, wo claim the higher and nobler title of Ameri can citizens. Pennsylvania, true to evtry constitutional and confederate duty, has ever been as willing to recognize and maintain the rights of her sister State?, as to defend Imr own. lruc to ail, she tolerates nosentiment oi disunion; uy traitor dares in he*legislative halls or in her p f, p.ula.r conventions, even to whisper tint odious and detested wosd, Other States ujay boast their traitors and their treas on, may scud their euunis&aries from capitol to capitol, oharged with the dire mission of hate and discord—may attempt to sever and destroy the patriot's homo—the world's last hope tor freedom and human rights. Our Couimouweilth* with, heart full of "liberty, equality and fraternity," frowns down the treason, aud clings with ail the fervor at her fire-t love to the "Union as it i?." We arc here to day as frieuds of the Union and the uonsJitution, as advocates of law aud order, pledged to obey every Constitutional requirement, to fulfill every legal obligation, and pledged to resist every attempt to proveut the due execution ot ei'iicr law or constitution State or national. We hase no sympathy with political or so cial fanaticism, whether in the form of Noith em Abolitionism, or boutheru slavery propa gaiidisru; we have uo sympathy with fanatics, whethci tLey arc John Brown and his eouted erjtc traitors iu the prisons of Cbariestowo, \ irginia, or the plotters of disunion in the legislative halls ot Uhurlcslown, South Caroli na. We hold the rights of the States to be sovereign and sacred, fheir institutions, po litioa. and social, ate their own. We have no right, direct.y or indirectly, to iuterfere with tbcui. What we claim for ourselves we vield to them, to all— treedom ot speech und of tbe Press--ihu right, full aud entire, to think—to speak, to act usfreeuun. If this he treason, let the supporters of the present National Ad ministration make the mast of it. As a party opposed to the Administration, its wrongs and corruptions, our principles have . oe-au misrepresented, QUI* motives impugned . and our veracity questioned. Our avowals and disavowals have uiike bten discredited. We | have been denounced as abetting tbe mad for ays of mad, bad men, 33 enemies of the con j stitution and the laws, and as recreant t. eve -Iry social und political duty. These charges ; arc false, as the motives that prompt their ut i terance are base and iufamous. They speak : ih- ir own condemnation. But so ioog as tbe wrongs ol fyausus, and the violence and blood : that marked tne atrocity of those wrongs, find j a place iu history —so long as the the National Administration, in attempting, over j broken promises and violated faith, to force, by i the military power of the Government, slavery upon an unwilling people, are not forgotten; so ioog as co.ruption stains the Government con tracts, and reekioss expenditures deplete the nationsi treasury, for partizan purposes; so | tree labor is unprotected, uud tree la [ borers despised aud regarded as the "mud I sills" of society, just so long should the ad herents and apologists of President Buchanan ; speak softly their reproaeljes of us, or sileuoe their slanders. Recognizing freedom as ths great oentro truth ot Americau nationality, liberty the rule, and slavery tbe exoeptioo, liberty national, slavery sectional and local, wa believe it to be our right and duty, by every iegai and consti tutional means, and uo orhcr, to prevent the extension of Slavery to 1 fee Territories of tbe Uuiou. These are the principles of the found ers of the republic, and it is sate to follow where they lead. These are the doctrines of the (Joastitutioo, of its compromises and of all cotemporaucous national legislation on this subject. As a coriollary to this doctrine, we hold it to be the right of the National Government to protect, by adequate aud efficient legislation, the tabor, and all the great industrial interests ot the American peopie. This priucipie, as a party, aud us citizens of .Pennsylvania, we can not aud will not surrender. iiouesty anj economy Lave become obsolete terms in the financial operations of tbe Nation al Government. Responsibility is a word without ineaniog, when applied to many of ber financial agents, ilseevil must be remedied, lo rebuke corruption and extravagance, and secure bonesty and economy in Wtato and National expenditures, are both the objects BEDFORD MOUIREIt and principles o.t thoso opposed to the Nation al Administration. To protect the elcotive franchise in its puri ty, to save t'roui every influence that would mi* pair its efficiency, is a psineiple d*sr to every Atuericau citizen, a prominent principle af the party represented in this Convention. As freemen, with ftea sebools and. on open Bible, ou aim and object should ever, be to se cure and protect tie rights of all—to advuuee the prosperity, of tho citizen aud the Sta,te —to save the Government from demoralization and •orrtiojHOQrvto promote be honor end great ness of our common country, and uid her iu tha accomplishment of her great and glorious mission among the of the earth. Hut, gentlemen, the immediate duty before us is to select u candidate, a standard bearer in the approaching gubernatorial contest, a contest only preliminary to a more important contest, in which not ouly our Commonwealth, hut the Union is deeply interested. Let us in the performance of our duties as members ot this convention, cultivate the spirit of harmo ny, peace and eouaord. Let us exhibit to all that we are ouo iu feeling and sentiment, and one in a fixed determination to triumph wi'h aud by our principles. Again, I thank you for the honor crmferred, and earnestly invite your cordial co-operation in the preservation of order and the perform ance of the duties assigued uie. This 1 ex pect yon will cheerfully give. BEDFORD INQUIRED. * • r: - BEDFORD, Pa. Friday .Uonitnr. March 9, iStiO. FEARLESS AND FREE." U. OV KB—Editor and Proprietor. FOR PRESJIiENT IN 18G0, HON.
