Mr. Johnson, of Lancaster, then rose and stated to the convention, that bribes had been offered to delegates to obtain their votes, and charged that corruption of the grossest kind coaid be proved against certain indviduals whom be did not name. Upon.being pressed to do so, he referred to Mr. Donahue, of Philadelphia county, to substantiate his statement, whereupon the delegate alluded to appeared before the convention, and threw down upon the table in front of the President, eighty dollars, saying, “there the money is, I despise it.’’ Another delegate, Mr. Green, also from Philadel phia county, announced aloud that he had also re ceived one hundred dollars from the same source, fhe statements threw the convention into the ut most confusion and excitement, and a motion to ap point a committee to investigate the whole mutter was adopted without objection.

Reah Frazer, of Lancaster county, from the Committee on Resolutions, reported the following for the consideration of the Convention, which, al ter several ineffectual attempts to amend, and a full and animated discussion of their merits, by Judge Thompson and Mr. Frazer for and Messrs. Magraw and Penniman against, were adopted with but three or four dissenting voices: The Democracy of Pennsylvania, by her delegates in Slate Convention assembled, do resolve as follows: That the doctrines and principles of the Demo cracy, as asserted by the National Democratic Conventions which assembled at Baltimore in May, 1844, and May, 1848, we still warmly recognize and support, and pledge ourselves, as representa tives of the democracy of Pennsylvania, not to yield or give up any portion of that broad consti tutional platform covering the entire extent of the Union; which is us follows: j 1. That the federal government is one of limited powers, derived solely from the constitution, and the grants of power shown therein ought to be strictly construed bj all the departments and agents of the government; and that it is inexpedient and dangerous to exercise doubtful constitutional pow ers. 2. That the constitution does not confer upon the general government the power to commence and carry on a general system of internal improve ments. 3. That the constitution does not confer autho rity upon the federal government, directly or indi rectly,.to assume the debts of the. several States, contracted for local internal improvements, or other State purposes; nor would such assumption bo just and expedient. 4. That justice and sound policy forbid the fe deral government to foster one branch of industry to the detriment of another, or to cherish the in terests of one portion to the injury of another por tion of our common country; that every citizen, and every section of the country, has a right to demand and insist on an equality of rights and privileges, and to complete an ample protection of persons and property, from domestic violence or foreign transgression. «>. That it is the duty of every branch of the government to enforce and practice the most rigid economy in conducting our public affairs, and that no more revenue ought to be raised than is re quired to defray the necessary expenses of the government, and for the gradual but certain ex tihction of the debt created by tbje prosecution of a just and necessary war. 6. That Congress has no power to charter a national bank ; that we believe such an institution one of deadly hostility to the beet interests of the country, dangerous to our republican institutions and the liberties of the people, and calculated to place the business of the country, within the con trol of a concentrated money power, and above the CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE H, 1850. laws and will of the people; and that the result of democratic legislation, in this and all other finan cial measures upon which issues have been made between the two political parties of the country, have demonstrated to candid and practical men of all parties, their soundness, safety and utility in all business pursuits. 7. That Congress has no power under the con- stitution to interfere with or control the domestic institutions ot the several States, and that such States are the sole and proper judges of everything appertaining to their own affairs, not prohibited by the constitution ; that all efforts of the abolitionists or others, made to induce Congress to interfere with the question of slavery, or to take incipient steps in relation thereto, are calculated to lead to the most alarming and dangerous consequences; and that all such efforts have an inevitable tendency to di minish the happiness of the people, and endanger the permanency and stability of the Union, and ought not to be countenanced by any fiiend of our political institutions. 8. That the separation of the moneys of the government trom banking institutions is indispen sable for the safety of the funds of the government and the rights of the people. 9. That the liberal principles embodied by Jef ferson in the Declaration of Independence, and sanctioned jn the constitution, which makes ours the land of liberty and the asylum of the oppressed of every nation, have ever been cardinal principles in the democratic faith, and every attempt to abridge the present privilege of becoming citizens and the owners of soil among us, ought to be re sisted with the same spirit which swept the alien and sedition laws from our statute books. Friday, May 31 Resolved,. That in the recent development of this grand political truth, of the sovereignty of the people and their capacity and power of self-govern ment, which is prostrating thrones and erecting re publics on the ruins of despotism in the'old world, we feel that a high and sacred duty is devolved with increased lesponsibility upuu the Democratic party of this country as the party of the people , to sustain and advance among us constitutional liber ty, equality and fraternity, by continuing to resist all monopolies and exclusive legislation for the benefit of the few at the expense of the rnanv, and by a vigilant and constant adherence to those prin ciples and compromises of the constitution which are broad enough and strong enough to embrace and uphold the Union as it was, the Union as it is, and the Union as it shall be in the full expansion of the energies and capacity of this great and pro gressive people.— End of Baltimore Resolutions . Resolved, That, as Pennsylvanians, our whole country is alike dear to. us ; we have no sectional ‘feelings—we recognize no North, no South, no East, no West—and this great State, occupying her central position can countenance no disaffection to that Union now expanding from ocean to ocean. Resolved, That attempts to create prejudice against any section of the Union, or the insti tutions they have instituted for themselves, is in our opinion Anti-American, and fraught with the most dangerous tendencies: and impressed with this sentiment, we shall cordially rejoice at and approve of such compromise of the existing controversy as will secure the constitutional rights to every portion of the Union, and put to rest the spirit of discord now so fearfully destroy ing the fraternal regard of the country. And with this view we approve of the admission of Califor nia as a State, with her present constitution and boundaries; and we believe it to be the duty of Congress at the same time to provide governments without delay for the territorities of Utah and New Mexico, on the principles of non-intervention, thus disposing forever, in a just and equitable manner, of the embarrassing subject of domestic servitude. Resolved, That we will yield to no one in our devotion to and warm, zealous and cor dial support of the Union, and will defend, pre serve and protect it, at every risk, at every hazard, and at every sacrifice; and we believe that as Ame ricans, proud of our great country, we cannot too warmly commend to the consideration of our countryment, the farewell injunstions of the Fa ther of His Country, expressed in the following prophetic language : “ to cherish a cordial, habit ual and immoveable attachment to it, accustoming ourselves to think and speak of it as the Palla dium of our political safety and prosperity; vjatching for its preservation xuitk jealous anxiety ,« discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned: ana indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred lies which now link together the various parts” Resolved, That the National Administration, no torious for its want of energy and ability—for its prodigality !in squandering public monies in the payment of illegal claims to its own officers and cabinet—in rewarding favorites against the solemn and oft repeated pledges before election—by un usual and unheard of proscription—by its inaction in regard to the necessary protection of the new territories, denying them the benefit of all govern ment whatever —by their repeated blunders in re gard to our foreign intercourse—have but too truly realized what the Democracy predicted .of them prior to election, and what the country mourns to realize since that event. Resolved, That the State Administration, true to their abandonment of previous pledges, has been distinguished only by a factious and. illiberal poli cy, reversing and overthrowing as far as possible, the wise and beneficent measures of the late de mocratic administration of the lamented Shunk, and fixing upon the commonwealth an odious sys tem of corporate and irresponsible monopolies, as yyell ae qsing thfj veto power for party purposes ; indicate unerringly the necessity that our great and good commonwealth should return to its de mocratic policy, the only true conservative prin ciple of the constitution and the freedom of the people. The Committee being unable to agree in favor of a permanent time and place for holding future Democratic State Conventions, respectfully suggest to the Convention, that the next Convention be held at Reading, Berks County, on the first Wed nesday of June, 1851. After the disposition of sundry questions of minor importance, the Convention, at half-past 12 o’clock P. M., adjourned sine die. Bargains! Bargains!!
