Notices of Advertisements. Mr. MANSFIELD, of New Haven, Ct., is desi rous of securing the services of active men for the disposal of Frost's History of the Mexican War. The Amendments to the Constitution —an Au- j ditcrs's notice, and Kewalt'e new supply, also appear to-day. Mr. Sterrcit having again got the Lcwistown Mills in operation, is desirous of purchasing a ! large quantity of grain. ; s~ The Chief Burgess requests all oc-; ( i)pants of property to keep their gutters free from grass, dirt, fce., and will feel it ; his duty to enforce the Ordinance in rela- : uon thereto if this notice is not regarded. J !"jp The long spell of dry weather in this vicinity was terminated on Saturday evening last by a deluge of rain, which, al- . though doing some little injury to corn, po- ' i a toes, gardens, Ac., has had a most bene- I ieial effect on vegetation. The storm also aused a break in the canal above the three j .oeks, which suspended navigation until Tuesday. ANOTHER ROBBERY. —The store of AE HED MARKS was entered on Sunday even .ig last, and some six or eight dollars tak i n troin the money drawer. * i An interesting child of JAMES A. ; HIERCE lell into a tub of water on Tues- ! day last while Mrs. P.'s atttention was momentarily withdrawn from it, and made a narrow escape from drowning. Fortu nately she discovered the little sufferer be- ! fore the vital spark had fled, and by the assistance of the ladies in the neighbor hood, a few minutes sufficed to restore it. -NARROW ESCAPE. —After the storm on Saturday night, a hand employed on the j Railroad in the Narrows went out to ex .mine the road, but sleepy eyes prevailing ' over discretion, he seated himself on the : track and fell asleep. lie enjoyed his nap :n comfort and perhaps with pleasant creams until the train Game along, when the cow-catcher unceremoniously wakened him up by a tap which sent him off the rails in a hurry, and doubtless meant! " you've no business here." He fortu nately escaped uninjured. r? The Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany has made arrangements for furnish ing excursion tickets front Philadelphia to Huntingdon and back for SG.so—to be good for ten days. Why not extend the ! same privilege to the citizens of Hunting- ' don, Lewistown, i The following notice of the Whig nom inees are from the North American. Our citizens will he pleased to notice that HEN RY W. SNYDER, of Union county, an in telligent ami widely esteemed farmer, has been nominated for an important post, in the proper administration of which every tax-payer is deeply interested. JOSHUA DUNCAN, of Bucks county, is a ! man in every way fitted for the post ol ; Canal Commissioner, and his popularity is as well known as it is deserved. High ly intelligent and well educated ; a practi cal farmer, distinguished for his devotion to lite interests of agriculture ; he is a man of the people, and a favorite among the people, irrespective of party. A good Whig, but not a politician, in any ordinary or invidious sense of the word, he has | never been in public life, although well fitted for it. lie has, indeed, filled one public post, which will not be remembered to his disadvantage, nor will he ever fail himself to recollect it with pride and plea sure. 11 e was a member of the Electoral College of 1818, and he had the honor to cast his vote for General Taylor. JOSEPH HENDERSON, of Washington county, the candidate for the office of Pur veyor General, has a name identified with that of the party in the State ; and no man in his county ever enjoyed, or now en- , joys, a larger share of public favor and confidence. He has represented it in the Legislature, of which lie proved himself an able and efficient member ; and he has, at various periods, been elected to high of fices—that of Sheriff among the rest— in the immediate gift of the people of his county. He served for several years in the Land Office as chief clerk, discharg ing its duties with an ability which elicited praise even from political opponents, and acquiring there the experience and busi- , ness readiness which qualify him so admi rably to fill the higher office to which he has been nominated. As a politician, his character stands as high as that of any J i man in the Commonwealth ; and he has ever been most zealous and active in the i support of the principles, the measures and the men of the Whig party. As a private citizen, lie has no superior, his moral character being unimpeached and unimpeachable. Of HENRY W. S.\YDF.R,of Union coun ty, the candidate for Auditor General, it ought to be enough to say that he is the son of the late SIMON SNYDER, the brave and honest old Democratic Governor, who, for nine years, from I*oß to 1817, admin istered the affairs of the State with incor ruptible fidelty, and left behind him a name which, even yet, has a power of en chantment and the force as of a war-cry, to so many thousand Pennsv Ivania bosoms. The son has inherited the qualities and the popularity of the father. The Con vention has, in him, given to the Whig party a candidate whose name is identified with victory. OVEXSJIINE vs. GALPHIX. —We sec that the Washington Union and its satellites through the country propose, with irresisti ble wit, to dub the Whigs with the name of Gulphins. this the York Re publican aptly remarks, wc really do not know how we could better return the com pliment of our kind loeofoco friends, than by bestowing upon them the name, style and title of OVENSHJ "YES, as a mernen to of the memorable transactions at Wil liamsport! \lf' The Huntingdon Globe thinks we are rather more honest in our opposition to the candidate for Auditor General than most whig editors, because we said that Mr. Banks was not quite so destitute of capacity as some whig papers describe him. We could not well say otherwise, Mr. Globe, because our friend of the York Republican, who was specially invited two years ago to use his influence to place Mr. B. in nomination fur Governor, considers him, for his pretensions, the smallest man in the State except John B. Sterigcre, while we honestly think there are two or three others in the state who are, all things considered, a little bit smaller. BLAIR G'OI XTV. —The Whigs of Blair county met in Convention last week, and put in nomination the following ticket : Tor Assembly, Seth R. M'C'une ; Regis ter and Recorder, L. 11. Williams ; Com missioner, Samuel Dean ; Director of the Poor, James Wilson ; Treasurer, Alex. M. Lloyd; County Surveyor, James L. Gwin ; Prosecuting Attorney, I>. 11. Ilof fius , Auditor, Jacob Walter. The Sena torial Conferees were instructed lor Alt son M'Murtric, Esq., of Ilollidaysburg, for Senatorial candidate for ihe district composed of the counties ol Huntingdon, Lilan and Cambria. The Rev. Geo. Guyer, oi Birming ham, has been appointee! De put. Marshal Uunonpelor. eountv The Platform. The Carlisle Herald says that the loeo foco papers are parading very conspicu ously in their columns what they call the Galphin Platform." As an offset to this we would direct the attention of the public to the u Ovensliine Platform," which has lately been set up by Jesse Miller, ed itor of the llarrisburg Keystone, and which is officially announced by the said Jesse, and circulated in handbills as lol lows : BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION'. Drake's Rejiort of the WILLI AM SPORT CONVENTION ! Proceedings, Speeches, ALL the testimony in relation to the attempt to BRIBE two of the. Delegates, &c. Rich and Racy. Ten 1 housarid copies ordered to be printed in pamphlet furm ! 1 To be published next week at £1 for twelve copies, or jls per hundred! Orders solicited immediately ! Address W. E. DRAKE, office of the Key stone, Harrisburg, Pa. llarrisburg, June C, 1950. As the report of the proceedings will be sold nearly as cheap as the delegates were, we hope the edition will be purchased by the people so that they may have a full understanding of the " seven principles" which lie at the basis ol the locofoco Ovenshine I}latjorm!1 } latjorm! * / The extracts in our last from the \ ork Republican and Clinton Tribune arc not very palatable to the Ovcnshines, who in true lawyer style, set them all down as malignant and unprincipled falsehoods. As the principal matters pronounced as falsehoods took place before we eaine to this county, we leave the matter to be set tled by the Tribune and Democrat. The Ovenshine candidate for Canal Commissioner says he belongs to no clique or faction, and if elected will discharge his duty with 41 impartiality and fidelity." 11 he does, the party will read him out before he is in office a year. - Accounts from Washington state that the U. S. Senate lias confirmed the nominations of Mr. LAWRENCE, Mr. PEY TON and Mr. MARSH for the several for eign Missions to which they have been appointed, and also, the Secretaries of their several legations. FROTI f ILIFORMA. The steamer Crescent City arrived at New York on the 21th. with later intelli gence from all parts of California, and 8250,000 in gold du-t. Reports from the mining portions of the country, both north and south, continue to be of the most favorable nature. The general state of health at the placers also is good. We regret to state that another destruc tive fire occurred at !San Francisco on the night of May fth, by which nearly one third of the city was reduced to ashes, and the probable loss i.- estimated at 8500,000. The United States, the El Dorado, Dcl monieo's, and the Verandah hotels were among the buildings burnt. In six days there arrived at San Fran cisco seventy-six vessels freighted with cargoes to find a market there. ntON EtROPF. The steamship Niagara, Capt. livrie, reached Halifax cm Tuesday morning with Liverpool papers to the 15th, and London papers to the 14th of June. Accounts frotn the continent represent everything quiet. The political news gen erally does not possess any importance. The Electoral Law which has ju-t passed the French Assembly disfranchises some two or three millions of voters. The crops are more forward, and this fact has caused a reduction in the prices of breudstuil's. Advices have been received from Santa Fo to 25th May. A Convention of delegates had been called and held, which formed and promulgated a Constitution for the government of the State of New Mexico. A Convention assembled at Santa Fe on the 15th of May, and lasted eight or nine days, during which, a Constitution was formed, which would go into operation in 1., c month of July. The boundaries of the State were defined, and slavery prohibited. The Con stitution was adopted on the 25th of Mav. In fittecn days afterwards, an election was to take place for members of the Legislature. Two I S. Senators and Representatives in Congress would soon be elected. This news has created much excitement among the southern agitators at Washing ton, anil the Texas members arc said to be particularly ferocious. From Havana, The steamer Isabel brings news from Havana to the 19th inst. The I . S. sloop of war Gerrnantown, and one other American man of war, were lying off the port of Havana, send ing in the boats only to learn the news on the arrival of any of U. S. steamers. The excitement caused by the late ex pedition has subsided, but the militia is or ganized, not only there, but in other prin cipal towns, and the different corps arc regularly drilled. Nothing decisive has transpired respect ing the men who were taken in captured vessel-. It seems there arc not so many as was first supposed. '1 tie cholera has deer< ased in the city, but iv spieading throughout the inn riur. Proceedings of the Whig Convention. We last week gave the first day's pro ' eeedinga of this body—all that had reached ' us in fintt for publication—and now sub join the remainder: THURSDAY, June 20. i The Convention re-assembled this morn j ing at 81 o'clock, agreeably to adjourn i inent, and being called to order, j The names of Messrs.

Snyder, of Union county, was declared duly nominated on the sec ond ballot, having received a majority of ; all the votes cast. The Convention then took a recess till 12.1 o'clock. At 12] o'ulork re-assembled—commit , tee on resolutions not being yet prepared to report. Mr. Johnson, of Cambria, offered ares olution fixing llollidaysburg as the place of meeting of the next Whig State Conven tion. \ arious amendments were proposed naming Lancaster, Lewistown, Meadville, Eric, Ac., on which an amusing discussion arose in which Mr. Heister, of Lancaster, Johnson, of Cambria, Elder, of Mifflin, Job nson, of Erie, and others participated. The resolution was finally laid aside ; and the ('onvention took another recess of half an hour, awaiting the report of tiie committee on resolutions. I'jion the re-assembling of the Conven tion at 5 o'clock, .Mr. Cornyn, front the committee on resolutions, submitted to the Convention the following report, which was read, and on motion of Mr. Loomis, unanimously adopted : lirsolnd, That this Convention, representing those who, in ls4B, gave the vote of Pennsylva nia to Zachary Taylor and William F. Johnston, rojoice in the opportunity now afforded them of renewing the expression of their undiminished confidence and respect; the mere earnest, as founded OQ the realization of all thair hopes and expectations. 'I he \\ higsof Pennsylvania have watched with deep interest the course of the Slate and National Administrations, conducted, as they been, under unusual embarrass ments —ami the result is, that they are proudly content with both. Resolved, I hat to William F. Johnston, Gov ernor of Pennsylvania, their gratitude is especi ally due, for his public conduct, his steady fidel ity to his friends and his party, to the interests of the great State he represents, to her relations to the Union and the Constitution, to her well settled and unwavering loyaity, and old fash ioned opinions on subjects "of domestic policy, formed during the revolution, and never for one moment abandoned from that day of trial to (his. Resolved, That our thanks arc particularly due to Governor Johnston for arresting one mea sure of dangerous and unconstitutional legisla tion, the first Apportionment Bill of the JaU session ol the Legislature, and thus forcing an unscrupulous majority to recognise the obliga tions of the Constitution, which all were equally bound to sustain, and whose fundamental princi ple, grossly violated by that bill, in fair and equal representation, and no disfranchisement for opinion's sake. Resolved, That to Governor Johnston grati tude is due for his anxious desire, manifested in every word and act of his official life, to main tain the public credit of the State, and enforce, by the accumulation of a sinking fund, the cer tain and gradual reduction of "the public debt and the public burthens, so as to release the en ergies of Pennsylvania from the weight she has so long and so patiently borne, ami give her new capacity to improve every portion of her soil, complete her unfinished improvements, and give to every county ot the Commonwealth facilites for the dcvelopement of its resources. Resolved , That one other public servant has earned our gratitude, and that of every right minded man in the Commonwealth, by faithful ly administering his responsible trust, and sec onding the economical views of the executive and this Whig Convention would not faithfully represent its constituents, if it did not give ut terance of earnest gratitude to the late Stale Treasurer, Gideon J. Ball of Erie, for all he has done, and all he has prevented. Resolved, That with a view to sustain the Ex ecutive by the association of men—men of high character, sound political opinions, and large experience, we have this day nominated JOSHUA DUNCAN, JOSEI-H HENDERSON, and HENRY W. SNYDER; surrounded by such men, _jnd no longer embarrassed by adverse aasocjtffcm, tho Whig Governor can, without fear or difficulty, carry into successful execution all measures ne cessary for the public good ; for their election, and with it, tho election ola Legislative major ity, so important in every respect, we invoke ac tivity, harmony, and fidelity in the Whig ranks, from one end of tha State to the other. Resolved, That this Convention would ill dis charge its duties, or do justice to the sentiment ol those who bent them here, the Whigs ot every part of Pennsylvania, if they were to withhold from- the President of the United States and his Administration, the tribute of sincere approval, of confidence, and respect. It was Pennsylvania—the State which settles by its vote and its patriotic preference, all the gre.it political contests ol the country which made Gi: era I Taylor President of the United St„u !t is Pennsylvania and her honest yeomanry that yet sustains him, and it is Pennsylvania which does not lightly turn her back on a brave, an honest and faithful pttblic servant. Resolved, That in electing Gen. Taylor, we chose him without reference to sectional feel ings, which Pennsylvania on all questions under the Constitution expressly and earnestly repudi ate*—hut with reference to his national charac ter, earned on the field of his country's battles, by u long life of severe public service in the cause of the whole country—and nobly has our confidence been repaid. His heart, swelling be yond mere local influence, has beat high in uni son with the nation's feeling, and never faltered in its devotion to the Constitution—the Union— and the interests of the whole country. It is the placid dignity and energy of his character, attested in scenes of trial and danger in another sphere, mingled with his utter destitution of mere sectional feelings, and his generous and constitutional patriotism, which now rebukes and always will restrain extremes of faction or fanaticism, let thein come from what quarter or in what form thev may. It is part of the choice blessings of Providence, that, in a crisis like this, the nation reposes with entire confidence on such a President. Resolved, That Pennsylvania thank- William M. Meredith, Secretary of the Treasury, for the principles asserted and the policy recom mended in his annual report to Congress ; prin ciples which, though too often postponed, be trayed and abandoned by our public wen, are yet as dear to the industrious masses of our fel low citizens as they were sixty years ago, when under the administration of Washington, they were first asserted. Resolved, That the prostrate condition of the ! industrial interests of Pennsylvania, produced i by the repeal of the Tariff of 1*42, arid the en actment of our present revenue system is a sub ject that demands the serious and early consid- j eration of Congress. While our brethren of the South are denouncing the free States of this Union for supposed aggressions upon what they claim as their constitutional rights, we invite them to contemplate tiie injury they have in flicted upon the North, which now threatens, ■ and, in some instances, has already caused the most deplorable distress and penury among large classes of our people—a people who are devoted to the Union—who are ever ready to support the Constitution and laws of their country—to sus tain her honor whenever assailed, and to shed their blood in her defence, and who are justly entitled, in return, to the protection that she has ( withdrawn from them, and given to the manu- [ facturers, the work shops and labor of other countries. The Whigs of Pennsylvania desire i to prasent the question to the present Congress, j whether their action" upon the subject is to be ' controlled by the wishes of the British Minister, ! or the voice of the Northern freemen of the I American UiTion. lit '■ivtd, That while the Whigs of Pennsylva nia are opposed, as they have ever been, to the extension of slavery, they hail the people of the South as their brethren, in whose prosperity they rejoice, and whose constitutional rights they ar.; prepared to sustain and defend. That in the spirit of good neighborhood, whenever the interests of different sections of our glorious Union are supposed to conflict, they are pre pared now, as they have ever been, to stand upon the ground of mutual forbearance, heartily responding to the sentiment expressed by Gen. Taylor, in his message to Congress, that the chief element of its strength is to be found in the regard and affection of the people for each other. Resolrtd, That this convention cordially ap prove the recommendation of General Taylor for the admission of California into the Union with her present boundaries ; that we hold it to be the duty of Congress to receive her with the tree constitution that her citizens have formed, without imposing on them any conditions or re strictions of any kind, it being the inalienable right of the citizens of every State to make such provi-ioDS for their security and welfare as they may deem expedient, and subject only to the propositions and guarantees expressly set forth in the Constitution of the United States ; that as the soil of the territory ceded by the treatv of Gaudalupe Hidalgo was free when it was acquired from Mexico, we do solemnly protest agaiDst any policy by which the laws of Texas, carrying with them the institution of Slavery, may be extended over any part of it. Ursolic!, That on all these great question* the Whigs of Pennsylvania stand neither on the Bal timore Platform nor the Nashville Platform, nor any other local or temporary footing ; but stand ing on the great structure of the constitution, find it a platform strong enough and broad enough to sustain them, their industry, their principles and their political faith. Resolved , That this convention separates with renewed confidence that, by union, harmony and zealous co-operation, strict adherence to princi ple, and no abandonment of long cherished opin ions ; by cordial support of the men and meas ures ot the .State and National Administrations, and by oblivion of all personal differences, they can, in October next, insure another triumph of the good cause for which they have o long con tended. Mr. Loom is then moved the following, as an additional resolution, and trusted it would be adopted by acclamation, and it so was : R'scire,l, That we return our heartfelt thanks to the Whigs of Philadelphia, for the generous hospitality which we as a convention have re ceived at their hands, and especially arc our thanks due to the committee of arrangements, for their kindness and attention. Mr. Jones, of Montgomery, said he would offer another resolution, which he would move to have incorporated with the others. It related to a subject in which the Whig party felt a deep interest. I!e read it as follows : Resolved , That this convention, believing that the people are the safest depository of power, and hal ing full confidence in their intelligence and virtue, would earnestly recommend to their support the proposed amendment to the Consti tution, contemplating a change in the mode of selecting the Judiciary of the State. After the transaction of some other busi ness the convention adjourned. tThe U. S. Circuit Court for the Western District, had a session at Wil liamsport last week, and a voung man hv the name of Baldwin, from (treat Bend, m Susquehanna county, and (iearhart, of Columbia county, were convicted for pur loining money from the mail bags. Both were sentenced to the penitentiary for ten years. A barn on the farm of SAMI FI I AI LINO, in Juniata county, was struck by lightning last week and burnt to the ground. The fluid also struck the spire of the Presby terian Church at Lcwisburg, I nion coun ty, but did not do any damage. - Ihe \\ hole amount ot subscription required for the completion of the Pcnn sylvania Hail road has been secured, with a considerable surplus, which will be ap plied, as far as it will go, to stocking the road, and there is little doubt that the im provement will now be completed and equipped at the earliest possible day, with out incutrin; one do!! ,i The Jeflei'Doiii>.n, publc-in d at Him,l; vilie in Jeflersou county, has* the follow in? paragraph in relation to a new proj, <■ for connecting Erie with the Central Rail road at this place : We understand that it is the intention of number of individuals residing in adjacentcoun , ties, to apply to the next Legislature for a grant 1 of a right of way, in order to construct a rail road, commencing at Erie and connecting with the Central at Lvwistown. We do not know whether the project is feasible, but if it is, we should like to see it entered into as soon a practicable. For years New York has had an . undue share of the lake commerce, and it h time that Pennsylvania should have a medium i of transit which will enable her to reap a por tion of the benefits arising from this lucrative trade. If the work is undertaken it will be highly advantageous to the northwestern coun ties of our State. Their best interests have long suffered for the want of suitable thorough | lares ; but let the enterprise now contemplate,i be completed, and their resources will bedevel j oped, their prosperity increased, and their im portance correlatively enhanced. WASHINGTON, June 17th, 3 - i 3O. The a ut between the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Church South, was brought t u close to-day, Judge Taylor ruling that those claiming as the Church South were not entiled to be made parties to this suit, and" farther de ciding that B.
