SPEECH j ' • jpHDSI CIXABI.KS B. BICRAIEW, democratic State Convent v-' ’■ tion March 4th, 1856. Mr. President and gentlemen of the Conven- Hon— scarcely a lit thing to set cold meats tKslorc'ncompany & feast; but, air, this |ffah l bccdsi6ri wh'en'tho feeble may stand up; and even the ill, come forward. I nave but lit tle to pay, ah’d as I h«*ve been much in the habit,'of reccpt years, of speaking to business and confining thyself to the question, ‘1 shall do so at this ,time. Air', President, this Convention is composed ©fo'no hundred and; thirty-three members. It is full. No delegate is.absent from his place in this Hall* Upon’the first vole for the selec tion a candidate to be presented by Pcnnsyl riinia to W sister States, one hundred and twenty-eight gentlemen are placed upon the Vicoro fri favor of a distinguished personage not Yiow resident within the limits of our Slate, al though a native 6f it, nor within the HmiU of thfa United'States or contiguous territory, but •located bcyojtd'thrcc thousand miles of dreary water, and there discharging with distinguish ed ability the duties attached to the position which he holds. 'No intrigue attaches to this motninrilidnV It has not been begotten in cau , 'Ciis nor In the brain of any human being who I, expected thorefrom personal advantage or pro tmotion. Whatever may have been said of pre vious conventions in this Commonwealth or [ .elsewhere—whatever of reproach or of doubt 1 'may.Have heretofore attached to any transac- I lion in which our,proud and gallant parly has : 'been concerned, this transaction, this event, -stands upon an elevation where reproach doth -.not assail.it. .[Great applause.] Sir, from whence comes this nomination by the Convention here assembled ? It comes ‘from thoiicarts and the judgments of the peo ipleof Pennsylvania. [Cheers.] That is the .quarter.from whence it proceotls, and hero is itbo proof of It. One hundred and twenty-eight \v6U»df this body, lacking but live of the cn •tlrfc number, were given with promptness and alraoily for the nominees of the Convention.— ]Four gentlemen voted under the pressure of in structions for another, but immediately aficr 'Wards, aficr that technical duty was discharg ed, thcy.onrollttl themselves along with their ncolleagues for the candidate nominated. One ‘ gentleman only, did not jom in the nomination, but he is just as certainly committed, and just •os sure eventually to be enrolled with the olh ■ crs/’tw iiny fdture event can be certain. Ho voted for the nominee of the Cincinnati! Oonven pllon. We have him there! [Applause.] Mr. If:President, this has been the action of the Con- [ Thus much has been done and well i’ydonc. ‘ It has bben accomplished at the right and in the right way. It has proceeded y<fir6m just and proper motives, and is emphati ’<bally sanctioned by, and based upon, the judg ement and convictions of the people. Now, sir, t ¥ what next I. Another doty-of this Convention P*will be to select gentlemen to represent our IfeCpwiion wealth-—our Slate—in the tJonveniicm |||at Cincinnati. They will go there charged with ip tho message which wo have prepared. And ivyhat a that message ? It is to ask of the as- 1 Wcmblcd representatives of the thirty odd Slates of the Union, t-o concur, with ws ra this work which we haVe begim, in all hones tv and in all barhestnes; with deep conviction ofilsjustice, t)f its wisdom, wßd of the necessity which has suggested and which sanctions it. Wo have spoken here, and onr spcecli has been put upon >ccor<l.' And there has been sent trembling along thciyires, with the, swiftness of light ning. to the remotest corners of the confedera cy, this voice, thus uttered. What next ? As 4 business question—for I am speaking with that idea predominant—what next is to be done I Why, sir, we are to convince our par ty friends In other Slates that wo arc right,and that duty and policy require them to go with \is. That is the point to which our common ahdunited efforts should now be directed.— And of what can wo assure them to induce them to go with us in tho action proposed ? , Why, we can assure them with united voice hesitation,.that tlyo doctoral vote lofthis State will bo given to the candidate \whom we have,named. We can tell them with satire truth, that members of the opposite par ty by hundreds and thousands have been con sidering tho nomination of Mr. Buchanan, and stand ready to endorse it. If he be nominated, Inro with us. 1 know many such. 1 have J, and others have hcard.many such voices tc, of active members of what was rcccnt ic Whig party.. This nomination, there has strength vastly beyond the limits of jwn parly. It grasps and collects the suf ?s of honest, independent, patriotic men, have before been with ns. hat inpro need we urge upon the Democrat irty-of other States and those representing Why,-air, wo can point them to the fact, at (hki'tnomcnt, from tho Atlantic cuost .ward, through all the Central Stales, where battle of tho Constitution is to be fought there is no man who can he named as tho and equal, on grounds of fitness, of the lidalc whom we have named. The distin- Ked citizen of Michigan, long and favora known to our people, is not before tho dry in connection with this subject. Kx jiywajjiljug one or two, of all the great men who public life thirty or forty years ago I-of all that band of worthies that have dis nguiihed the history of onr own Slate, or of io general government, from these Middle I ,atcs, and especially from Pennsylvania, there I but one proud, bold head yet above the | aves. [Applause. I Some of them have been j ruck down by tho hand of death—some have 1 \tn away from us in the pressure of hot con sts, ond. from apostates at first, have become icn and eventually insignificant enemies.— \pplausc.] .And, Romo have been found oth •wise unfit for, or unworthy of the continued jnfidcnceaml respect of the people. But, Mr, trough all vicissitudes, when our glance lias one abroad in search of tho faithful and the real, one figure has fixed attention and com landcd respect. There lias been with him a leady virtue and o mental power, that have unfounded his enemies and fixed hun firmly i tho affections of the people. When we have looked, of recent years, for n« who stood up like a whole man in former and yet stands up; who has travelled Pi;,' .‘through the storm and the tempest with un- P ‘ s -Impaired powers and popularity, but one man meets the expectant gaze', and that man is Jan. Ifefi'Buchftnan. [Applause.] Sir, our people have flreibeen thinking of this thing for some years.— have thought upon it earnestly, they SjffiigJhaTe turned it over in their minds as they pur jro&Liued their avocations in their respective neigh- and they have expressed here to-day, *'•• v their delegates, the conclusions to ♦Which they have oome. May we not trust that lathis voice, thud intelligent' aiid thus 'decided, bo respected by our sister Slates when they ln council in Juno next. Yes, sir, SBSbtfj there is no other candidate in the central por piffi tion of the Union who can’ bo presented as tlic fair and equal competitor of tho choice of this Convention, no other man about whoso name auch recollections, such evidences of fidelity •*plro- and ability arc gathered, os his who, is now I IfISI' proposed as our standard hearer in tho coming > nww oampalgn, and who will secure to ua, if noroi ■kaSß sated, a signal triumph, ; Mm But what more 1 When I read, either book ||i| -tfrkrda or forwards tho history of our Common-, aft wealth. 1 perooivo, and aficrwnhls’ recollect'. ■apaEl one important and striking fact; ond it Is this : 'Mm. that whilo tho IUUc const pound Stato of tyas llg.iiachusctts and tho Slate of Virginia, inferior to, -Jim,;our own in many respects, have often furnish- Ilmß Incumbents for tho Presidential chair, our *Wsm own Stale hart been entirely overlooked, If not 'WSm -forgotten. Wo have occasionally reminded onr |9H[ brethren of the other States of some moderate ‘W and modest pretensions which wo hold to on Wm this subject, but for one reason or another they fyßa | )&7Q . novcr received their attention, and JB they havo not acceded to our wishes. ■lsßm the time has come when this favor ought |HbK no longer to be refused to this noble State of ® ours. [Applause.] Tho time has come whch %Wfm * fair claim of, right »r|sc3 pn_ our behalf, and WMj vhep.lf oi|rduty, founded upoh,fcir*ft4pect' to,urge it fl’ith zeal and-a determination that it shall be ackowlcdgcd. There are reasons.wHy Pennsylvania should be listened to by the other States. In the most critical moment .of every political engagement, of every political contest, since the foundation of our general government, to what point of the Union has the anxious; strained gaze of; the Democratic party been turned 1 Whither ? Why, sir, in a letter of Mr.-Jefferson’s—written in the dark and • stor my days when ho lifted up that flag which thoso’who came after him have hold up since— he wrote:—“Let but Virginia maintain her position and Pennsylvania stand firm upon her basis, and our Union will be perpetual and our prosperity boundless.” [Great applause.]— Yea, sir, there was then an anxious, patriotic eye turned from the heights of Monticcllo to wards Pennsylvania, in hope, for the rescue of principle of principle from the contests of fac tion. Away back, half a century ago. the sa gacity of Mr. Jefferson discovered’ in this Slate the foundation upon which Republicanism could safely rest; lie pronounced his judgment that so long as she stood with Virginia upon solid principles everything was well, and the prosperity of the country secure And certain. — It has been so since. In every party emergen cy, when the cause of the Republican or Dem ocratic party looked dim and doubtful, when faint hearts failed, when the treacherous fell t from us, and the feeble halted in their course. Pennsylvania was looked to as the point from 1 which redemption must come. Sir, we have 1 ordinarily been faithful to these expectations.— < Time after time, when the battle was doubtful, • and threatened to go against our party, Penn sylvania came forward and grasped victory from the jaws of despair. We have also in other respects performed our duty to our sis ter Slates and to the Union. No State stood forward more promptly to form the Constitu tion and Government of the United States ; to establish solid benevolent and patriotic princi ples as the base of this structure which has be come the admiration of the world. Wo have, sir, assisted our sister States when their inter ests were involved or their rights in jeopardy. To protect the Virginia frontier and Kentucky settlements against the treacherous savage, our soldiers rushed Into the wilderness under “Mad Anthony Wayne.” In the war of 1812, in the western wilderness, along the Northern Lakes and upon tho Atlantic seaboard, Pomtsykan ians were fonndlaborirrg and pnfTering to up hold the common interests of the States and maintain Vho honor of tho national flag. Sir, there are many here to whom I may appeal as witnesses, that in the more recent Struggle in which onr nation was involved, on a distant soil, under a tropical sun, from the shores of the fJtilf far away into the interior of Mexico, the I’knnsylvania volunteers plodded their wea ry way, fighting when required, suffering where suffering was to be endured.and zealous ly assisting to uphold the American character tor (orliluclc and prow-ess before the civilized world. Why. sir, upon an appeal from Simon Snyder, the Democratic Governor *of this Stale, at n time when Massachusetts refused her jails to the general government for prisoners ofwaf. Our Legislature opened ours wflo for national use, and, gave-an -additional evidence of that patriotic spirit which I trust will always be characteristic of our people. We have been very tjmch complimented, sir. We have received compliments without rram ’ bcr. This State has been literally loaded with them. She ban been complimented during her * whole history,for half a century, for her slcadi [ ness of purpose, her devotion to the Union, the * valor of her sons, and for all those public vir- tuca that elevate a State and make her admired and respected-among ihc nations. Have you not heard .it said just before an important national election, that “os Pennsyl vania goes so goes the Union,” ns goes Penn* sylmnia so is tho result; and the hearts of our brethren in other States have been made to dance with Joy when Pennsylvania hns gone ns they desired her to go. Yes, sir, they have re joiced exceedingly, and been deeply grateful for our efiorts, devotion and zeal. I speak in all kindness, with n proper appreciation of these compliments which have own showered upon us. We have been asslgnfcd a very im portant position in what is designated ns tho “federal arch” fan expression which I confess I have never exactly' comprehended.) - This State has been called the keystone of that arch; which holds it in place, and without which it would crumble into mins ; without which eve. rything would go todcstrcntion connected with it. We have been told that upon this Slate has rested the Republican system of govern ment: that it has constituted the base of it. and that wur steady and solid population arc to be iclitd upon under all circumstances. All this is well enough, ami agreeable enough, but we can nllbrd to dispense with further compl mcnts.nnd therefore,what we now ask of our sis ter Stoics of the Union, is this ; that waiving all pleasant words, the coinage of kindness, po liteness, or gratitude, they give us the request that wo arc about to make of them. [Loud and long continued applause.) We ask them to do this as no special or sole favor to Penn sylvania, but ns a thing in itself honest, hon orable, and without reproach, and above all, as one in which their welfaic and our own are jointly and mutually interested. Mr. President, they will do it. Sir,the Con vention that is to meet in Juno next, will do it. I venture to pronounce this upon evidence that appears conclusive to my own mind. I ven ture to pronounce it upon information received from other quarters of the Union. I venture tp pronounce it, because it is so reasonable and just a thing, that I believe the Democratic par ty will not miss doing It. I believe it will be done, because it is seen, and can be seen, by all intelligent members of our party in fill parts of the Union, that the nomination of Mr. Bu- chanan gives uh a political position so broad and strong, that all the power of the combined political opposition in the country cannot pre vail against us. Bo it understood, then, inlho llrst place, that Pennsylvania, in this nomina tion. is in earnest; in the next,' that she is thor oughly united ; and, in the lost, that in her judgment, it would be unwise, and possibly disastrous, for other States to refuse a concur, rcncc in her action. I have spoken suddenly and impromptu, and have addressed mypelf simply to the duties of the occasion imposed on member# of this Con vention ami those chosen by them to represent the popular will. 1 say to all, there is a pub lie, national duty upon us to unite in securing the nomination of Mr. Buchanan, at Clucinna- li. Tho reasons for it aro many and weighty ; but I havo only glanced at some of those most prominent and obvious. Suffice it to say, our hearts and judgments sanction .this whole movement. Together, heart arid soul, without opposition, without divisions, 'aye. sir. with out a protest, we go into this thing, aml we ask that the other States, for their own inter est and honor, as well as ours, and for tho suc cess of our parly, may join with us, and per mit tho people of Pennsylvania to show what kind of a majority Urey can give fora Penn aylvania candidate for President of tho United States. [Great cheering.] Western Granaries.— *VTo ascertain that the following amounts ol com arc in store at the places named : Peru, 124,000 bush.: Lasallo, 70,000: Otta wa, 200,000; Peoria, and towns between that place and Lasallo, 700,000; making a total ol 1,004,000. ... |T . It is estimated that there is in store at Lock port 125.000 bush., at Morn's 100,000, and al Joliet 60,000. In this city tho amount of grain in store,— 110,000 hush, wheat, 01,000 bushels of corn, ami 14,000 bushels oats. This gives 182,100 bushris at this point, which added to. tho above : totals, would make 1,501,100 bushels. A very largo portion of tho corn in storo at points pn thocanal and Illinois river Is owned in this city. Tho probability is that tho amount of Corn in storo below will bo nearly double before tho canal opens, and tho amount in this city will of course bo largely Increased before,tho bpcnlng 6f navigation.” sK ‘‘ (CAjeago j'ribunt.' 1 COM WISTEBS.

At Brunswick, Mo., tho mercury became stilflntho bulk. 1828. Tho January of this year was remark ably mild, tho Delaware being throughout en tirely free from Ico and not a flake of snow be- ing seen through the month.
