Alter the adoption nf a platform, the con
Tention Bojourneu fine me. ll was one o:
the ablest bodies ol lniocrata ever assein
bled In theState.
TI1K l'liVTr'IIH.M.
The fjllowlng is the platform adopted at
the llairisbnrR Convention:
KlsoLvr.n, Finf, That the Democrat I
party of Pennsylvania in convention assent
bled renew our vows of fidelity to the funda
mental principles proclaimed and practiced
by the illustrious men who fettled our free
Institutions and founded the Democratic
party to preserve nud protect them.
Second, That the just powers of the Ked
er"l Utiien, the rights of the States aud tl
liberties of the people aro vital partsof one
harmonious system, and to fave each part i
its whole constitutional vigor is to "save lb
life of the nation."
Third, That the Democratic party main
talus, us it ever has maintained, tnat the
military are and ought to bo in all thing
subordinate to the civil authorities. It denle
as it ever has denied, the right of the Fed
eral administration to koep on foot at tl;
general expense a standing army to
vade tbe etates for political purposes, with
out regard to constitutional restrictions, to
control the people at the polls, to protect
and encourage fraudulent counts of th
votes, or to inaugurate candidates rejecttd
by the majority.
Fourth, That the right of a free ballot I
the right preservative of all rights, the ottl
meius of peacefully redressing grievances
and reforming abuses. The presence at th
polls of a regular military force and of
liost of hireling officials, claiming tbo power
to arrest and imprison citizens without war
rant or hearing, destroys all freedom of elec
tlons aud upturns the very foundation of
self-government. We call upon all good cil
izens to aid us in preserving our institution
from destruction by the?e imperial methods
ot supervising the right of suffrage and co
ercing the popular will by keeping the way
to the bailot-boi open and free, as it was to
our fathers; in lemoving the army to a safe
distance when the people assemble to ej
press their sovereign pleasure at the poll:
and in securing obedience tolheir will when
legally expresed by their votes.
Fifth, Tnat Kutherford B, Uayts havic;
beeu placed in pawer against the well-know
and legally-expressed will of the people, i
tne representative of a conspiracy only an
tils claim of the right to surround the bal
lot-boxes with troops add deputy marshal
to intimidate and obstruct the elections, and
his unprecedented use of th veto to main
tain this, is an insult and a meuace to th
country.
Stith, That the Democratic party, as of
old, favors a constitutional currency of gold
aud silver aud of paper convertible into
coin.
Seventh, That we are opposed to the system
of subsidies by the lieneial Government un
der which, during the period ot Hepublican
ascendancy, political rings and corporation
profited at the people's expense, and to any
appropriations of the public moneys, or the
public credit to auy objects but tbo publl
service. The reforms and oconomi
enforced by the Demrcratic paity since its
adveut to power in Congress have saved t
the people mauy millions of dollars aud w
believe that a like result would follow it:
restoration to power in the State of Peuu
sylvauia.
Eighth, That the Democratic party, being
the natural friend of the workingman an
having throughout its history stood between
h"m and oppression, renew its expression of
sympathy with labor and its promise of pro
tection to its rights.
Xinlh, That we look with alarm and ap
prehension upon the pretensions of th
great transportation coojpacies to be abov
the fundamental law of this Commonwealth
which governs all else within our borders
and uutil they accept the constitution of '73
in good faith they should remain objects of
the utmost vigilance and jealousy of both
Legislature and people.
Tenth, That the recent attempt, under the
personal direction of ruling Hepublican
leaders, to debauch the Legislature by
wholesale bribery aud corruption and to take
from the Commonwealth four million
dollars, for which its liability bad never been
ascertained, is a fresh and alarming evidence
of the aggressiveness of the political riug
and should receive the signal condemnation
of the people at the polR
F'erenth, That the great fraud 1S70-77, by
which, upon a false count of the electoral
YJtes of three States, the candidate defeated
at the (Hills was seated in the Presidential
chair, and, fur" the first time iu American
history, the will of the people was set aside
under a threat of military force, was the
uiot deadly blow ever aimed at our system
tif representative government, Tojprtserve
the country fiom the horrors of a civil war
the Democratic party submitted for the time
in tirm aud patriotic laitb that the people
would peacefully rednss the great wrong
and signally rebuke the dark crime when
tbey should come to vote In ISSO,
That issue precedes aud dwarfs every oth
er It imposes a more sacred duty upon the
poop e of the I'niou than ever addressed the
c-iiuvimicm of a cation of Irecuicu, ,
TIIK HUlllrXS SKNTKNCKll.
Tho Hoard nf Putdom convened on last
1'rlday, and after a short teslon recommend"
rd tho pardon nf Keiuble and the other riot
bill bribers from that portion tii the rnlciico
which consigned them to tho penitentiary for

pardons nml tho prloncls were released.
They paid the tines nf rno thousand dollars
each and costs. They are disqualified from
ever holding nny tifllec of tnist or profit un

takes to rxcue thcnifclvfs on llie ground
that the court exceeded its authority In sen
tencing to labot in the penitentiary, but this
Is too Hlteniiattd. Tho board iscompordof
lti-publlcans, nml they were governed by
partisan motives rather thnu by a deslro to
correct n mistake ol tho court. How long
will the people of this State keep iu power
a party whoso officers make a farce of tho
laws ?

On motion Hon. A. O. lirodhead was
chosen chairman : and John O. Freeze was
elected Secretary.
After somediscuision as to the number o
Representatives those portions of Luzerne
and Lackawanna lying within the Congres
slonal district, were entitled to in the con
ference, and in view of the fact that there
were among them contesting delegations;
On motion of Mr.liiddisof Pike, a commit
tee of three was appointed by the chair, to
consider tbo subject and report tho nex
morning at P- o'clock. The Chair appointed
Mr. Piddis of Pike, Mr. Freeze of Colum
bia, and Mr. Case of Monroe.
The committee met and after considering
the matter very carefully, unanimously
agreed to report tho following resolutions.
Jleolced That we recommend the adop
tion nf the following rule as the euide for
the present and future conferences of this
nature.towit mat tne territory nt l.uzerne
comity lying within tho 11th district shall
be allowed one representative in this con
ference, in addition to tho Representative
from the 4th Legislative district ; and the
territory of Lackawanna lying within it
shall beallowedone The said Representa
tives tn be cboen by the delegation of the
counties respectively, without regaru to resi
dence iu the district.
After full consideration, discussion and
interchange nf views in the delegation, the
resolution was adopted. Whereupon Mr,
Day and Mr. Britain were admitted from
Luzerne, and Mr- Dunning was agreed upon
to represent Lackawanna, and was admit
ted to a seat, Mr. Beamish retiring.

Staples of Monroe, were duly elected.
For elector in 11th district Adam Ger-
ringer of Montour was chosen.
On motion the Conference adjourned.
WASHINGTON LETTKU.
Washington,. 1). C. May. 4th ISSO.
The views of two well informed Demo
crats.on the subject of "early adjournment,'
are published this morning, Senator West
gives June 1st as the probable day.and Rep
resentative Blackburn July 15th.
The National Blaine Bureau claims be
tween ninety and one hundred of the Chicago
delegates to be chosen this week, for their
favorite. The friends of Mr. liUine here
make no concealment of their belief that
G raut, if nominated, will be beaten.
Up to this writing no vote of the immediate
dificiency bill has ben sent to the House
by Mr. Hayes, but it was stated on Saturday
night that the paper was already signed
Mr. Hayes was represented as favoring a di
vision of the special deputies between the
political parties, but as being dissatisfied
with the means by which the bill proposed
to bring about the dividon. In short he
had tho same view of the subject as
Ensign Stibbtus had of the Maine law. The
first elaborate bill of the session for the en
couragemeni oi American commerce was
introduced by Senator Williams of Ken
tucky yesterday. It proposes a liberal pay
ment for the carrying of ocean mails, and to
pay $25 000 per year to American ship
owners for each iron or steel screw steam
ship of 300 tons built and owned in the
United States. A bill for substantially the
same purposes will soou be reported from
the House Committee on postal affairs,
but neither of them will probably receive
final action at this session,
Regresentative Ellis ofLouisiana presents
a bill directing the Post Master General to
purchase or cotistruct a telegraph Hue be
tween llostou a'nd other eastern cities, and
Washington, to be used by the people.under
government direction, as an experiment, at
low rales tor transmission ot messages,
money Ac,
Senator Hamlin did not get through the
Senate yesterday his bill on the' subject of
claims of our citizens against Nicaragua,
the bill is desigued to put energy into the
administration in its work of negotiating a
treaty with Nicaragua. But there is no ob
jection to the bill, and It will pass whenever
called up again.
The com-uerce committee's eight millions
for River aud Harbor improvements will
probably swell to ten millions In the House.
In practical action on this bill the proposed
plan to allow the executive to veto parts of a
measure would work well. For the two or
three millions generally appropriated for
purposes of public utility there is at least
twice as much wasted.

There are these points in Hancock's
favor.
1. He is a DemocrJt.and in a normal con
dition of affiirs a majority of the people of
the republic are and always, have beeu dem
ocrats. Hancock's nomination wuld do
more than anything else we can think of to
restore political affairs in this country to
what we may term their normal condition.
2. Hancock was a soldier of the Union.
The people will feel assured that if he is
elected nothing which has been gaiued in
tho war will be surrendered.
3. Two generations of Hancock's ances
tors (ought the battles of the republic. The
grandson of a soldier of the revolution wil
maintaiu intact the government nf the re
public. No experiments with it will be at
tempted iu his time. We count the fact
that Hancock is uf the "old stock" as large
ly in his favor.
-4. If Haicock should be elected, nobody
will have any fear hast he will not wllliuirly
surrender the poweis nf his office to the
people four years alter his election, and with
gratitude to bis countryman. Can as much
be said of Gran', who has been President
for eight years, and who looks on quietly
while politicians are plotting and scheming
tosecure for him a further lease of power?
Is he grateful lor honors equal to those con
ferred on Washiuftun.
5. Haucock will carry every southern
state. Nobody disputes this. He can car
ry the state of New York, for it is a demo-'
critic state, aud is there a d mocrat iu the
stale of New York who will uot vote for
Hancock? As agsiust Grant tens nf thous
ands of republicans will stay away from the
polls, or will vote directly for Hancock.
Can as much as this be said of any other
citizen named in connection with the dem
ocratic nomination.
We aree with Dina that Hancock is
the strongest candidate that can be named
against any candidate except Grant the re
publicans can name. As against Grant,
General Hancock is the one candidste whose
nomination will be an equivalent to an
election.
If the democrats want to win, and want
nothing else, they have got the game in
thttr owu hands. There is no better name
for a president thau Hsncock ths uatue
which stands first on the signatures to the
Declaration ot I independence. BrooHyn

Bruce, the Colored Senator from Missis
sippi, alluding to tin time when be should
retire from the senate pathetically said ' "1
believe that I am the last ot my race that
will ever occupy a seat iu this brauch of the
Federal Government."
No doubt, the words ot the senator will
prove to be correct. The republicau partv.
ever auxious for the negro vote, and alwajs
ready to make the most glowing promises,
no more nominates them to Important offices
The leaders of that party will not even as.
sociate with tbem, uot even with Senator
Bruce himself, an able, sensible and excel
lent man, wealthy and retioed, and with a
beautiful aud cultivated wife. Never was
