Mr. Reeder, from the Committee on. Resolutions made the following report. Resolved, That the great and wonderful progress of our Republic in wealth, in power, in political and civil enlightment, in population, in territory, and all that can develop the energies and promote the happiness of man—exceeding al it doe' all prat. lel in the history of the 'world—establishing, by mountains of evidence, man's ability to govern him self—alarming the absolutists of the old world and menacing to overthrow and destroy, by the mere moral power of this grand display, institutions which have withstood all the vicissitudes ot centu ries, and shadowing forth a national destiny, which the wildest imagination can scarcely conceive, is calculated, in its grand sublimity, to fill us with pride and confidence in the permanency ot our in stitutions, and in the Democratic principles which have given them all their value and tbeir power. Resolved, That the late victories achieved by the Democratic party of the State and the Union, result ing as they did, not only in the defeat but also in the annihilation of the political organization oppo sed to us, have given the most cheering and encour aging conviction of the fundamental truth and pu rity ot the principles which form at once the basis and the strength of our creed ; and fill us with glad assurance that the nominations here made, will be received and treated with the same fidelity and sup port as-those which were made the rallying point in the contest which produced so glorious a result. Resolved, That the power and position of our Government in relation to the nations of Europe, and the exercise of a becoming vigilance' and care over our own safety, require at our bands a prohi bition of all future European colonization upon the American continent Resolved, That we take plea Sure in expressing he gratification we feel in the high abilities and qualifications of our President elect, and congratu late ourselves that his whole deportment and bear ing, from the time of his nomination to this day, has so nobly fulfilled, and even exceeded our san guine expectations, proving him to be a man pecu liarly qualified for the high post to which an almost unanimous nation has called him, evoking the ap probation of friend and foe, and holding out the brightest promise of an energetic, a patriotic, and a brilliant 'administration. Resolved, That we have undiminished confidence in the purity of character, sound democracy, and signal ability of COL WILLIAX R. LING, our Vice President elect, and deeply regret his state of bodily health. Resolved , That we rejoice in the popular verdict which has been pa=ssed in the date elections upon fantastical attempts to transgress and violate the compacts of the Federal Constitution, by officious intermeddling with domestic State institutions, cal culated to array one section of the Union against another in a conflict of bitter feeling and dire hos tility, and thus give cause for dissolution. And we regard the popular condemnation of this political creed at the polls, and the adjustment of it in Con- glees by the enactment of the Compromise meas. ures, as cause a joyful congratulation, vindicating the true principles of our Federal Government and Constitution. - . . Resolved, That this convention heartily, cheerful ly, and unreservedly approve, endorse, and cherish the principles of Government promulgated in the Baltimore resolutions of 1852, and will sustain them in their party action with all the more affection and respect that they have been the pil.ar of cloud by day and fire by night, which have conducted us through the late political contest, and ensured us so brilliant a victory. Resolved, That under the Democratic-tariff of 1896, our entire country has prospered, the indus trial i terests of all classes, and more especially the iron interests of Pennsylvania, have been promoted in a degree which has equalled the expectations of its friends, and secured to the people a firosperity un equalled in the history of our State. Resolved, That the administration of Governor BIGLER commands, and deserves the admiration and approval of the party and the people. His strict conscientious devotion to the duties of his of fice his financial ability, his vigilant care of popular rights and his bold discharge of duty in regard to improvident legislation,. show him to be an able, clear headed and faithful public servant, and entitle him to our warm commendation. Resolved, That the redemption and cancellation of the relief notes of the Commonwealth is a meas ure loudly called for by every consideration of State pride and public convenience. Resolved, That the Democratic principle of an elective judiciary has been fully tested and vindica ted by experience, and that the Supreme Court of of Pennsylvania has merited and received the con fidence and respect of the people; and that it is sound and wise economy to provide for such just and lib eral compensation to the judges, as shall retain and secure the highest , talent of the State to fill that re sponsible and important trust. Resolved, That upon the assembling of any Dem ocratic State Convention, the chairman of the State Committee, or in his absence any member of said committee, whom he shall designate for that pur pose, shall call said convention to order, and shall preside for the purpose of enabling such convention to elect a chairman, After the reading of the resolutions, Mr. Burnside moved an additional resolution, that this Conven tion has the fullest confidence in the integrity, abil ity and sound Democratic prinCiples of the Hon. RICHARD BRODHEAD j that his career as a Senator representing the Democracy of Pennsylvania, in the National Legislature, has reflected credit upon himself and honor upon the Commonwealth.

Burnside, Porter, Donnelly and Reeder addressed the House upon the subject, when Mr. Drum moved the previous question, which was seconded and the main question ordered, when Mr. Reeder's amendment wa disagreed to—yeas 30, nays 56. The question was then taken on the resolution approbatory of the course of Mr. Brodhead, and adopted—yeas 71, nays O,—A large number of Del egates, nearly one-hall the Convention, relused to vote. The question on the second branch, in regard to the members of Congress, was then unanimously adopted. The resolutions reported by the committee were then unanimously adopted. Mr. Cessna submitted the following resolutions: Resolved, That the present basis ot representation in our State Convention, lounded as it is not upon Democratic :•otes, but upon the entire population of all parties, is inconsistent with the natnre and character of what is intended to be, and as such Convention is a mere party organization for -ascer taining the will of the majority of our own party, consistency and justice require that such repre sentation should be of the Democracy alone. Resolved, That the —.ate Central Committe shall within three months after each gubernatorial elec tion, make out and publish an apportionment of (hie gates, upon the Democratic vote of the State, at such gubernatorial election; ascertaining the ratio by fixing the whole number of delegates at one hun• dred and thirty-three, and allotting to each county so many delegates as its Democratic vote shall en title it to under the said ratio, and allowing dele gates for the fractions over the ratio, by giving one delegate to each district having such fraction, be gining with the largest fraction, and so descending until the whole number of one hundred and thirty three is exhausted Provided, however, that each county shall have at least one delegate. A motion was made to refer this resolution to the State Central Committee to report theteon to. the next State Convention. Mr. Monaghan then moved to postpone the res olution indefinitely ; and the question being taken there was no quorum voting. A motion was made to adjourn sine die, when, Mr. Hirst rose and addressed the Convention as follows : Ist. 2d. 59 67 17 23 16 13 13 13 GENTLEMEN : Before a final adjournment, let me return you my thanks for your cordial assistance in preserving the order of the Convention. It is truly said,in all quarters at the seat of Government, that few conventions of more talent and character than this have ever assembled in the State ; and I feel certain that its doings will be received by the Democracy of the State with respect and favor. It is now our duty to go forth as missionaries among the people to preach the doctrines of our political faith. Be it remembered that our organ ization is purely voluntary. Although this Conven tion is the legislature of the party, yet there is no process to punish offenders against its authority.— Therefore, it is, that in proportion to the voluntary nature of the party discipline, is the honorable ob ligation to submit to it. Upon the members of the Convention peculiarly does it rest to support, with spirit and zeal, the nom inations when made; and that they will do so, no one can doubt. It is in the nature of human tem per, when regulated by intellect and a spirit of hon or, to cool after transient excitement, and accom modate itself to the superior impulses of honorable minds. The Convention then adjourned sine die. HARUISBURS, March I.—The Senate have 'just receded from their amendment, disagreed to by the House, to the bill authorizing the Pennsylvania Railroad Company to run passenger cars over the State Railroads, thus confirming the contract tn ith Bingham & Dock, and fully sustaining the Canal Commissioners.
