ONE WEEK LATER FROM• EUROPE
British mail steamer Canada, Owl* William
Harrison, arrived at her wharf in Boston at '7 o'clock
I'. .M.,'July 4, having left Liverpool June 23, and
made the passage in eleven.days.
There had been-little changejitt the state of busi
ness affairs during the week in England. The pro
duce markets were moderately supplied, but there
was not such an extensive demand; holders were
firm and insisted upon full rates. Cotton contin
ued in a healthy state, and full prices • ‘tire're jirtid;
indeed, during_the last few days an advance of one •
eighth of a penny per lb. had been obtained on some
sorts. The coin markets wero firm, and more bps-
iness doing. _
The time of parliament since last advice:: has been
chiefly occupied in the discussion of the Canadian
question, and the colonization of New Zealand.
_ - - -
Jp the lords on the 19th Lord Brougham moved
resolutions condemnatory of the bill compensating
the Canadian rebels. Lyndhurst, Campbell, Stan
ley and others spoke on the question,. and the re
solves were rejected, 99 for, 99 against. •
The declaratory bill relating to O'Brien hits pass
ed both branches of parliament.
In the common' s , on the night of June 22, Lord
Palmerston repligd to Mr. Roebuck that the govern
ment had witnessed with deep regret the bombard
ment of Rome by the French: England had front the
outset deprecated armed interference with the Ito
man states.
InELAND.—The weather -has set in gloriously
throughout all Ireland, and within these few days
therepcirts of injury done to the potato plant -have
been hushed, and tjhe darimged specimens, which
have been hitherto Ito industriously:paraded in pub
lic, appear to have, been produced by local and ac
cidentel causes. All the accounts of the prdspects
of the harvest represent the growing crop -as in a
most flourishing condition, and a general course of
low prices for agrieniturul produce is anticipated.—
The foundation stone of a new Orange hull has been
laid at Newry. - •
The queen has subscribed £5OO for the relief of
the Irish, end her example has been followed by
others to the amount of 1:3000.
Mears O'Doherty and Martin had been removed
to spike Island for transportion. • •
ITALr.—Up to this hour (June 23) we have no
official account of the taking of Rome; and it would
appear by the Italian papers received this day, that
althilugh Garribafdi's corps had suffered dreadfully
in its sorties, it had succeeded in deratiging the op
erations of General Ouditiot so Much that he could
not make e , general attack before the 16th or 17th.
It is to be hoped that this:" really was , -she case, for on
the 16th or 17th, the news of the failure of the con
spiracy of the 13th in Paris would reach Rome, and .
then probahl3; the triumvirs, seeing that there was
no longer a chance of their obtaining any aid .fr o m
Prance, would be disposed to Capitulate, and thus
prevent an useless ellbsion of blood. It is general
ly thought that the telegraph will to-morrow, if not
this evening; bring news of the capitulation of
Rome. °
The Patrie, of Wednesday night, mauls that a
telegraphic despatch has been received by the gov
ernment, confirming the news of the defeat of Ga
ribaldi when he - made the sortie on the I;ith.
Vtimai.—The.Risorgimento, of 'Perim of the
15th. quotes letters from Venice of the 6th, stating
that- the siege and blockade are-carried on unremit
tingly,-and that BrondolM Chicrgia, and Cavarzere
are daile•boinharded. Minister Block had opened
negotiations with the city, but to nu (-Ilea. Ills I
offers were e --a general amnesty, the recognition of
the public dZi . bt of Venice, the institution of the civ
ic guard, a civil and not militdry government, the
reintegration into the several offices of all those per
sons who field public fenctiens before the 22,1 of
°March, 18 /8, all the enyloyes to be -Italian, to the
exclusion of Germans, the amount of a year of prae
dial tax to be waived by the Austrian government.
In return. for these conditions the Austrians were to
occupy the town and forts. The Venuians have
refused, fearing, with reason, that the Austrians,
, once in possession, would keep none of those arti
,cles.:
DaxatAnit.AND HohsTrmr.—llamburgh pnrcrs to
the ]sth, contain no news of impurtanc. •Not even
a skirmish appears to have happened between the
belligerent parti:•.s at Predericia, Alsen, or Aarlinus;
and reports given by a Danish paper of the appear- .
ance of some Russian ships of war on the coast o f
Puhnen seem to have been unfounded.
It is stated in Berlin that' peace IA ith Denmark
has been definitively concluded. The question of
the succession is pro% isionally kept in abeyance, and
The independence of Schleswig is recognised so far
that the King of Denmark appoints from this duchy
three governors, whom he shall select from among
the six candidates proposed by the national repre
sentatives of Schleswig.
GERMANY.—The archduke John has entreated the
government of Wurtemberg to put a stop to the
proceedings of several persons, styling themselves
the national assembly and „pro% isional regency of
riermany, and to remove the said persons from the
territories of Wurtemberg. Obedient to the regent's
request, the ,king of Wurtemberg's government has
requested the regency to quit theliingdom. It ap
pears that the regency and the national assembly
declihe to accept this advice, and it will be fouhd
necessary to remove them by force: •
On the other hand o the German national r is g er n.
hly resolved, on the lgth that the archduke John is
guilty of illegakusurpation in continuing to exer
cise the functions conferred on him on the 13th
July, 1818, but revoked on the 6th June last. It
also resolved that neither the governments nor citi
zens are bound or war-anted to pak him obedience.
and that the regency ought to oppose, by all 'vas
in its power, his usurpation. The assembly after
wards adopted n bill nutho4ing a general arming
of the people, and it referred to a committee on fi
nance a demand by the regency for a credit of. 5,-
000,000 florins fur .the months of June .an•l July.
The Prussian army on the other sue of the:Rhine
has occupied one-half of the Bavarian palatinate al
ready; without meeting with any resistance.
On the night of the 12th inst., while the prince
of.,Prussia was passing through Ingelheim, on his
way to take command of the Prussian troops, shots'
were fired from behind the hedges of a vineyard, rind
the postilion of the 'carriage •which followed the
prince's was severely wounded. The man that
tired the shot that wounded the postilion has since
been apprehended.
The Proisiant and Hessians who attempted to
i,nt rule the Baden republic have been defeated by the
troops of the provisional government.
Pnussra.—Accounts from Berlin of the 18th state
that the preliminary inqiiiries into the charges
against the politiCal prisoners had been concluded.
The Courier de Berlin, a journal published in French,
had been suspended by order of the president of po
lice. The regency of Stuttgard had sent a despatch
to General Prittwitz, the commander of the forces
Schleswig, ordering him in future to receive no
instructions from any authority but them. By the
accounts from the Pfalz, the Prussian troops had
advanced to Kaiserslautern, where they had fixed
their headquarters. The provisional government
had fled.
'AUSTRIA AND HUNOARY.—By the Vienna papers
of the 13th we do not learn tßut any action of impor
tance had occurred between the belligerent armi,u,;
m the north of Hungary. In the south it appears
that two actions have happened, and have both ter
minated to the advantage of the imperialists. The
Ilun.mrian general, Perezehrrout the fortress of Pe
r
towardein, made an attack on some "Austrian en
trenchments, but was Ultimately repulsed, and driv
en with loss Mto Peterwardein, though the Austri
ans admit tha4their own troops sufrered'severely.—
Theother'batOe was fought by the Ban Jellachich,
and is asserted to have heen a brilliant victory; but
the Austrian accounts are evidently nut trustworthy,
at least i ns regards their own losses.,
The advises of the 16th from Vienna make men
tion of a tremendous encounter with the Hungari
ans. The Austrians and Russians are said to have
been completely defeated, and to have left on the
field the number of 23,000 killed. This battle took
place on the 13th, 14th and 15th, in the large plain
between Raab and Weiselburs. It lasted 64 hours.
The loss of the Magyais is stated at 8000. The
Austrians were commanded by Ilaynan, the Rus
sians by Rudigcr, and the Hungarians by•Georgey.

The followin passage is of great importance' to
the present slat of the Hungarian question. The
English governn ent does mit now endeavor to dis
guise the fact that this war against Hungary is a
conquest, and n,t, simply an expedition to put down
a rebellion.-, It roteste that it will, by no means
treat Hungary a- a conquered crown hind, but as a
province, which by the resolutionof the 14th April,
forfeited all hist rival rights, end lost all_ claims to
'greater privileg:s than those possessed by all the
other Austrian .rovinces.
Kossnth sent special messenger, informing the
Austrians and ussians that for every Hungarian

fate.
PoLA:ro - --The Augsburg Gazette of the 16th
inst. states that it is informed that the 'greater part
of the Russian wards suddenly halted op the 10th
that
on their march t 'the south; and it is even said that
a Party of the guards, who had reached the environ.h
of Kowno,, had returned by forced marches to St.
1 Petersburg. The Poles assert that the cause or
1 this countermarkh is, that a conspiracy had heel
discovered at St Petersburg and Moscow.

Letters from tie south of Russia state that a se ;

the inhabitants are dying of starvation and scurvy.

FaAnn.—This country has again subsided into
apparent trangulity. -We in our last number an
noune2d the gettprat'overthruw of tip, attempts of
the red republica ns to, bring about a revolution in
Park, and the sa me success had attended the gov-
I ernment in Ly+s, Bordeaux, Nantes, Toulouse,
'Rheims, and oth r towns; but at Lyons the sup

~ a vast effusion o blood on both sides. The effective

plotters on the 13th instant. Ledru Rollin and•his
confederates were Surprised at the Conservatoire des
Arts, where.theY met to carry out their conspiracy,
and the great 'eider has fled, and up tot , this mo
ment has escapeil capture. it is undoubtedly prmed
by the documents discmered, that the conspirators
meditated a coin ilete revolution, and the establkh
went of the dem icratic and social republic. The
president, his in nisters, and the majority of the leg
islative assemblj., were to be placed hors la !oh, bud
a list of proscriptions was prepared. War was to
be declared.agailist Russia and Austria; the. Bank
of France was t he suppressed; and general plun
der and confiscations were to be the tinier of the
(tar. Serj!ant Boichot was to be minister of War,
and Serjeant Rattier commander-in-chief, 6z.c.; in
short all the rerdlntionary party were to be raised
to the surface.. The whole of these schemes are de;
molished, and the principal conspirators, with the
exception of hei ru Rollin and Baichot, are in cus:
tody, and will be immediately brought to trial, tin
der the anthoris lion of the assembly. A state of
1.
siege has been thclared; all the revolutionary jour
nals have been r gorously suppressed; the dabs and
all political woe ings are interdicted by a law of the'
assembly for the space of one year; and the govern
ment seems
any
red to exercise sufficient energy to
suppress any future attempt to disturb the public
peace. .
The.red repot) teat) party in the chamber, depriv
ed of lodru It Ilia, beem r truck with consternation,
as not one of th in is safe, but chat some piece de
conrict,ion may-i nplicate him; accordingly the tone
of daring and de 'lance of the mountain is very much
abated in the eh other. At Lyons,,consequence
the forged news heffig circulated that. Ledrue Itoliin
was inadedictato• in Paris, that a convention had been
formed, and ,that bmils Buriaparte and his govern-
meet overthrown . the Lionese collected at the Croix
Rousse, and atti cted the military . in Lynng. 'I he
mob expected th troops to join them, in which they
were wofully mistaken; but the rebels, having as
sembled at live o 'clock on the morning of the 15:h,
took some of the ciliary points at eight o'clock, and
the general• battle commenced , at Ceti. From that
hour until sunset the musketry and cannon ne
ver ceased thcitr terrible noire and execution, and the
loss of life un both sides was very serious.
Svme - roms Disumox.—The .fern Orleans La
Pubis publishes rather a curious document in the
shape or a dtielaration of Independence by the people
of the Nortlitirn States of the Sierra Madre.' It ap
pears in a Matamoris paper of' the 18th, entitled El
Then Public°, the editor of which translates it from
the English, and says that he has good reasons for
behev mg that it was printed on the other side of the
river. This manifesto opens 'in the very worth of
our own Declaration of Independence, awl then pro
ceeds to recite the grievances which the people of
the Northern giatesof Mexico have antlered from the
government—These are: Ist. Constant.. political
changes and renewed oppression Onerous taxa
tion; 3.1. TIM tyrany 01 the army; 4th. The in
security of religion; sth, The denial to, the people
of the right of possession over their vast territories;
The tt ant of public education; 7th., 4 The neg
lect of the older and more respectable members of
the States; 8:h. The extravigance of the rulers in
the midst of the poverty of the peoplei . 9th. The
state of servitude throughout Mexico, which is de
clared worse than slavery.
For these reasons, the peoplc of the Northern
States of Sieira Madre of Mexico, declare them
solves fee and independent, 'and to corroberate this
declaration, mutually pledge to each other their
fortunate, and sacred honor. The manifesto conclu
des with the ominous phrase; "Our sarbbards arc
thrown away. Death to tyratit3.7 It has no sig
nature.
We suppose this is the initetive in the project 'of
establishing the Republic of the Sierra Madre.—
In the interim, the Mexicatt.authorities seem alarm
ed. At. Matainoris they have arrested Dr. Millet
and his sei cant, on suspicion of being accomplices
in this scheme of independance. 1
DEATH IN ST. LOOM—Tile St.lLouis Organ of
the . 26th ultimo, says;—"A few Weeks since ,in St.
Louis, the occasional sight of a hearse heading the
slow procession of a funeral train{, would arrest the
sympathies of the passer by, and! would perchance
impart a u holesume admonit ion of 6 certainty to come.
But day by day we have groun itamiliar with the

were pierced with a thrill of horror by cries proCeed

which the widow was seated frantic and alone, beside

NEW I.7linS OF GRANITE. --Those who hint taunt
ell New England with producing nothing but gran
ite may change their tune. A Mr. McDonald, in Scot
land, has discovered a method of calcining granite
to a fine clay of extraordinary strength for pottery,
especially fur making water.pipes, some of which
are as large as 18 inches bore, And a discovery
has been made in Ireland that the granite on an ex
tent of 10 miles in Wexforthcontains en largo a pro-,
portion of potash that the alkali can be extracted by
a chemical process, so as to be come an article of com
merce. It is estimated that . :there are 2,009 tons of
potash, the produce of America, consumed annually
in England and Scotland, the present cost of which
is .C.lO per ton; and that, by working the granite of
Dulkey, which extends inland to Pandyford, the same
quantity cuulbe extracted by means of $lO,OOO,
and cold at X. 0 per ton. yielding a revenue of £4O,-

D11111001141.T10 NOMINATION.
-FOR CANAL CONIMISSIONER.
JOHN A, GAMBLE,
OF Lycohinco COUNTY.
ll ..MOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION=ITS
CANDIDATE AND RESOLUTIONS
Wo had only room last week, and that after our paper
went to press, to announce that the deliberations of the
Democratic State Convention which assembled at Pitts
burgh ou the dth, resulted in the nomination of JOHN
A. GAMBLE, Esq., of Lycoming, for Canal Commis
sioner. NVe said in that brief announcement that mintier
selection eoubl not hare been made! We repeat it Mr.
Gamble is as Well qualified for the duties of Canal Com
missioner as any man in the state. Aside from an inti
mate knowledge of bur public works generally, ho comes
up to the true Jeffersonian standard—be is a good Dm:l
our, and both honest and capable. That ho will be
ele••ted by a triumphant majority over whoever the whigs
may pot on the course against him, there can be no
doubt. Mr. Power, the present . whig member} of the
board, who he is destineA to supercede, plainly sees this,
said ha;, in Consequence), wisely declined a re-nomina-,
;lion from his party. Ile sees. and tho whigs see, the
hand-writin g on the wall. The Taylor “swindle" has
exploded, and the Democracy of the Keystone, purified
by adversity, and united by the shameful proscription of
a national Administrationithat canto hi pledged to pro
scribe no man for opinion sake, are determined to take
the first step this fall to redeem their ancient common
wealth from the thraldom of whig misrule: Besides, it
is meet that men who appoint the Penroses and Fitz
Warrens of whigery to otticesof trust, shouted receive
a rebuke at' the hands of a state that contributed so much
to their own CIOVM.IOII, us Pennsylvania: This the elec
tion of such a man as inns A. GAMBLE will accomplish
—and this, the Keystone Democracy, are determined to
do. The entire proceedings of the convention show that,
although there were other gentlemen, who are good and
true Democrats, named for the same station, nod sup
ported with warmth and ability, union and harnasay pre
vailed throughout, and when the - IMmination was an
tuauttbed, a unanimous determination expressed to give it
a cordial support. Such feelings in the convention will
ho responded too by the masses, and Pentislvania mill
be redeemed!
The resolutions of the Convention mer it our entire ap
probation, and will, we aro confident, receive the hearty
endorsement of the whole party. That Pittsburgh Pest
well remarks that "they present a platform upon which
every true and honef.t Democrat can tally. There is not
a squinting towards Conservatism about them. They Me
radical and right in sentiment, keeping pace with lbw
progressive spirit of the ago in which we, live." The
first, alluding to Me great struggle now going-on between
Republic • ism and Monarchy in the tld world, is a hap
pily expressed utterance of the pulse of the whole party,
unconfined by state limits or resgieted by imaginary
lines, ft is the heartfelt prayer of every Democrat,
whether among the mountains of Pennsylvania or on the
tented field of II u ngary or in the imperial city of Rome.
Tho resolutions relative to MOT, shinplasters, and
other similar inventions of modern Ivhigery to deprive
honest toil of its just reward, and thijs concentrate in the
hands of a few, the propel ty and wealth which should be
diversified among tile many, are practically and 'theore
ticaly democratic. and cannot fail to meet the approba
tion of all who believe that laws ought to be framed for
the benefit of all instead of the selfish and grasping few.
They are the sentiments of the masses under whatever
name they May array themseles politically, and the day
is not far dist•utt when shinpla r sters and Banks will he
things Ora have been, but or t. not; and the people will
W under that they ever tolerated them, much less deemed
them either necessary or convenient.
It is scarcely necessary for ait to endorse the resolu
tion relative to the Ten flour law. A laborer ourself—
brought up to depend upon out own hands for support—
all our sympathies aro now, and ever have been, with
those who aro the real bone and sinew of the country—
the working men! With tho poet we think that
Myriteis of own Wlne trielied into brave

And we are forced to believe by the conduct of certain
modern politicians that there are those among 110 now
who would melt fellow•uten—fashioned like thesn
'selves in God's own image—into brass, or "crush them
into cla)" that (key might "dazzle tlero' their short-lived
doh•" in luxury Ilia ease! Besides, our ll..nnocracy
teaches us that, although a men may he born in a hovel,
he is none the lons a man, and should not' be forced to
become a living machine,in the hands of manufacturers,
without time for recreation, amusement, or mental cul
ture! The perpetuity of our free int- litutions, which de
pend upon the intelligence of the people, forbid such an
idea
The election of Judges 11y the people, as well as all
other public servants, is another measure on which the
Democracy, in these resolutions, takes a buld, manly
and decisive stand. This proves to us that political re
form is not behind the ego in the Kesetono state. We
go fur the election of Judges by the people, and are grati
fied to know that the measure is every where and among
alt classes gaining popularity. We well recollect, al
though not 3 voter at the lime, that when our present
constitution tvlivilmtitteri to the people, there were
Allege #inong- us—then and now lenders of the whip party
—whiff opposed it, because Justice., Prothenotors,
were Made elective officers—because the people, from
whom all {lower is derived, were allowed to chose certain
of their own servants: and although it does not speak
well fpr their honesty in claiming, or ullowiii their par
ty organ to claim for them, exclusive friondSbip for such
reforms, it does speak well for the progressive spirit of
the ego that they aro now found arrayed on the aide of
tins measure. It demonstrates too the . fact that, however
much man may surround himself with, prejudice, or
bind down with party'nes that i mite sense: of justice
and right which God has .implanted in the breastof all
of His erennires, truth will sooner or later find a
lodgement there, and severall such arbitrary and ;lavish
bands.
Sg.'hile we de now, and have always, deemed the agi
tation of the slavery question impolitic and unnesessnry•—
caleulated to mar Mike the harmony and good feeling
which ought to exist between the North and the Sout h,
as well as prove injurious to the slave himself—we see
nothing in the resolution relative to the further extension
of slavery that we cannot heartily approve. The demo
cracy in the last canvass did not contend for a further
extension- of slavery—they did not wish or ever expect
to see Califotnia and New Mexico become slave states—
but as they were already free, they claimed that so they
must remain, and that any action Congress might take
would only load to useless agitation without producing
any beneficial result. That such was the wise Policy
there can be no doubt—hut deMagogues, fanatics, rind
disappointed aspirants, each found in it material to sub
sertro their own ends, and consequently we were defeated,
and Gen. Taylor. the owner of three hundred human
beings, became the Chief Magistrate of the nation. If
thole is any satisfactien in centomplating such a consum
mation of their efforts. lot them look upon it—view .it in
every• light--end then tell us if "Taylotism pays expen
ses." If it has not, hero is a platform we can all unite
upon. With this resolution wo are willing to stand or
f
The resolution expressing the disapprobation of tho
convention of the barbarous practice of flogging in the
Navy, cannot but elicit the approbation of every reformer
and philanthropist in tho country. Such a law,. so de
grading to our national character, should no longer dis
grace our Statute Books. We are aware that its advo
cates—for it leas advocates—base their objection to its
repeal on grounds of expediency. Every barbarity.
eurtrlinard by law, hex been defended upon the same
grounds. Expellincy imprisoned dehtors—Expediency
flogged prisoners in jail—.expedieney put manacles on the
lunatic—but expediency is fast giving away to a more
humane and philanthropic spirit.'
Of tho Taritrreaolotion it is nee - 41°as' for us to spell
Wo . stand now whore we have stood ever since the
subject first claimed our attention—totally opposed tb!
every spec i es of Tariff which aims to foster ono interest i
at the expense of all others. This resolution, then, moots
our views, uug places tho Democracy of the Koyston9
side by Side with the Democracy of the Union.
"A Com6 , v or Ennous."—Wo do not often take no,
lice of the blunders of our quiet old friend of thi3 Chron4
cle, but in his lust number ho plays such "a comedy of
errors" in noticing the Democratic convention,at Pitt s L
burgh, that we can do no loss than sot him 'right. 11e
sets out by making E. 11. Black, of , Northampton,
President of the Convention. Col. S. W. Black, of Alle
gheny was called to the chair temporarily, but Judge
Prmr, of Philadelphia, was tho permanent Pros;dent.
1 Ito says again, Otero were "ono hundred and five dele`-•
t gates present," and "on the first ballet, John A. Gam,-
l
i blo had 52; Cl. P. Mason, 24; Asa Dimmiek, 17; now r
man, 10;" making 103, and the "balance (2) senttered
t among six ether gentlemen." Perhaps this would b
1 more intelligible, ;Idle Editor it, mild inform the pnbli .
I~ how this balance of two was "scattered among six other
[, gentlemen." There were 117 delegates present, which
''i leaves a balance 'of 15 to be "scattered among" not tti•
Ilactly "six other gentlemen," but seven. 11e thou says

the convention did adjourn till tho next day, but instead
of there being "several Whitings" there was only one,
and instead of Mr. Gamble being "nominated by a vote
I .
of 70 to 49," Ito was nominated by a vote of 71 to 46.
'lf:ea:May, a fit of the Chronicle would be valuable for
future reference. i
&Ileum—We learn from the Crawford Democrat that
a man named J toes Sk:AltS, of Meadville, formerly a

certainly justified in grumbling at the appOinfinent of
Mr. Marsh, of Vermont, to n foreign mission. For in

the coming election in that district, to fill a vacancy oc
easi'oned bydiis resignation, says:—"We shall elect the

On that committee' the Chair appointed Me,sra. An
demon, Schoonover and 'Slack.
Tho Committee appointed to report resolutions ex
pressive of ‘he sentiments of the Democratic Convention,
'respectfully report the following:—
Resolved, That, with strugglimr 'Freedom ever where,
the sympathies of the Democratic party keep watchf u l
company wheresoever-the people are lifting up their voi
ces in a manly shout for independence, and we hero on the
declaration day of our own, give them back for answer
tho lull utterance of tho heart's best hope, that God's
blessing will smile upon their perils, and give the:nlll all
time to come a day like this.
lltsolccil, That it is our duty to watch with n jealous
eye, our own liberties—and to resist early and always,
every encroachment upon the general right of the peo
ple. We regard with seriouk_ularm, the power which
corporate associations are dal tiling front tho many
to the few,
Rsu'Ted, That prodigal grants of special privileges,
we will dispute. forever. No Hew Bank; nor, any re
charter, without stringent individual liability; and every
possible restraint the law can Is 3: on banking corpera
e hold to be an imperative necessity el the tunes.
There is no safety, and can be none, except in a firm and
faithful adherence to the specie basis.
Rcsarcd, That the interest and rights of labor it is but
just to defend. The labor of the countr3 is the woalth of
the country, and the impulse of her progress and pros
perity.
Re.solted, That the Tea Hour law, without proviso,
amendment or appendage, to defeat, its operation, is a
measure that commands our cordial and unchanging
support.
Rooked, That shinplasters., issued by municipal or
other corporations, we denounce us false representatives
of money, by which labor is defrauded of its: just reward.
And all schemes of relief issues, being but printed con
fessiods of insolvency. put upon the people as current
equivalents for industry, we regard as worthy of signal
condemnation. The Democratic party, if it is honest,
confesses its poverty. but repudiates, rags.
- Itwolced, That all power should .remain with and be
wielded by the people, except, wlarolor concentration
and convenience, it is necessary to confide the same to
agents. We approve not only of an elective Judiciary,
but of electing all public servants by the people—who
ore fully competent themselves to do what they employ
others to do.
Rewired, That the Democratic Party adheres now is
it over has done, to the constitution of the country. Its
letter and spirit they will neither weaken nor destroy; and
they re-declare that slavery is a domestic, local institu
tion of the South, subject to state law alone and with
which the general government has nothing to do. Wher
ever the State law extends its jurisdiction the local insti
tutions can continue to exist. Esteeming tt a flotation
qf State rights - to carry it beyond State limits. We de
ny the power of any citizen to extend the area of bon
dage. beyond its present dominioh,--nor do wo consider
it a part of the compromise of the constitution, that sla
very should forever travel with the - advancing column of
our territorial progress.
ftesofred, That John A. Gamble is n genuine repre
sentative of the democracy of Penns,lvania—simple in
his habits, otrietly republican in all his feelings and prin
ciples, honest and faithful is the discharge of Nil hi% du
ties—possessing as ho does, in an eminent degree.a sound
and correct judgement and a familiar acquaintance w i th
the interest and capabilities of the State, we confidently
present him to the people of this commonwealth i ta
suitable person for the office of Canal Commissioner.
On motion tho resolutions were taken tip and acted on
seperatoly, and unnnimously adopted.
The following resolution, offered by Mr. Youog, % ui
adopted.
Resoked, That this Convention deem it their duty e t
this limo to express their disapprobation and detestatio n
of the barbarous law now upon our National Statute
Book, authorizing the flogging Of American Seamen on
Ship board, viewing it as repugnant not only Inhumanity
but to every principle of republicanism and ju s ti ce ,
The following resolution offered by Mr. Derr, wa s
adopted:
Resoled!, That the distinct and emphatic pledge and
premise made before the last Governor's elections by
tho party now in power to perfect, in this State, the Teo
flour Factory- law, and the elpvation of the laboring
class, has been sharnefullyryielated, for when ample op
portunity presented iisoll during. the last session of the
Legisfuture, they refused to repeal the obnoxious proviso
attachecito the gill by the presentiChief Executive.
Mr. Weren't ofi'ered the following resolution, which
was adopted:
Rewired, . That the practical workings of the present
revenue laws, cicarly demonstrate their superiority over
those which immediately pi-acceded them. Thus prim.
ing that which was logical in argument, is Bound in pri n .
ciplo, and practical in its effect; All systems which gave
bounties to particular interests to the detriment of the
great industrial classes of the Country—which seeks to
aggrandize the few at tire expense of the many, are a
clear xiolation of those principles of democracy which
proclaims to all equality of rights.
The following resolution, offered by Mr. Sawyer, wee
unanimoualy adopted:
Rcsolred, That the thanks of this Convention be ten•
tiered to the President and I.)tlicers of this Convention
for the faithful and ith:e Manner in which they hays du•
charged their ditties, _
On motion of Mr. Cessna, the Convention adjourned
sine die.
