Democratic State Convention. The following are t!e resolutions adopted by late Pro-slavery Democratic Convention. We a!-o utlil the names of the Delegates to Cine li mit i. ami the Electoral ticket : /iVWrrrf.jThat in the present distracted eon (lition of parties, in which sectional and par tial issues have been allowed to attain a dan gerous supremacy, we recognize in the policy of the Democratic party, that which rests up on the Constitution as its basis : and that it i.-> in the party which above all others has. in the language of the illustrious Madison, ever continued "to hold the Union of the State as the basis of their peace and happiness ; to support the Constitution, which is the cement of the Union, as well in its limitations as its authorities ; to respect the rights and author ities reserved to the States and to the people, as equally incorporated with, and essential to the success of the general system ; and to avoid tlie slightest interference with the rights of conscience or the functions of religion, so wise ly exempted from civil jurisdiction.*' Resolved, That by the general consent of all nations, the framcrs of the Republic of the United States, exhibited in their individual characters and in the result of their public de liberations. a degree of virtue and a practical statesmanship, to which the history of the world affords no parallel : that in no part of the Fed eral Compact is the wisdom of our fathers more conspicuous, than in leaving the whole question of slavery to the States in their sepa rate capacities and that in the provision for the re-delivery of fugitives escaped from labor or service, they demonstrated a sense of jus tice—n appreciation of the value of the Cn ion, an attachment to its preservation—an avoidance of one-sided philanthropy, and im practicable theories of government, which pre sent a proper example for the guidance and imitations of us, their descendants. Resolved, That wc look only to the Consti tution, and the exposition thereof which has been afforded by the practice of Democratic ad ministrations, for the chart ol our policy.— That these constitute, until the fundamental law is changed by methods which itself pro vides, the highest lair of our obedience as citi zens ; and that we utterly discard that partial and exaggerated sympathy, the attempt to car ry which into practice, is at the peril of our dearest interests as a nation, and tnreatens the infliction of evils of ten-fold magnitude to those which it proposes to heal. lie solved, That the equality of the States is the vital element of the Constitution itself, and that all interference with the of the States by those who seek to disregard the sacred guarantees of the past, and by all others, should be rebuked with the same spirit that would denoucc and repudiate all attempts to erect odious distinctions between those who are entitled to share the blessings and benelits of our free institutions. Resolved, That the effort to direct the pow er of the Government by anti-slavery agitation, under the various names and pit rases of Frec- Soilisin, Anti-Xebraskaism, Fusionism and Re publicanism ; and by interfering with the rights of conscience in establishing a religious test as a qualification for office, bv the sccret-oatli bound society of the Know-Nothings, as op posed both the letter and the spirit of the Con stitution, and the earnest teachings and prac tice of its earliest and most honored admin is Ira tors. Resolved, Tiiat we are now as ever unaltera bly opposed to the doctrines and designs of all organizations which contemplate the overthrow of the civil and religious rights of the citizen ; that the equality of the citizen, like the equab ly of the States, is a sacred and inalienable right, never to be interfered with by factions parties and reckless legislation without a sub version of the primary objects of our political system, and a repudiation of the guarantees of the past and the hopes of the future. If Constitution— his intimate knowledgcof all our relations with foreign countries and hi large and enlightened experience point to him as pre -eminently the man to lead the vic torious columns of the Democracy in Novem ber next.- Resolved. That we fully endorse the admin istration of President Fierce 11s national, faith ful, aud efficient—fully equal to all important emergencies w I rich the country has had to en counter; and that lie has worthily maintain- ■ ed her interests and honor at home and ! abroad. Resolved, That in the rise at home of fac tious based upon a single principle inimical to to our government aud Constitution, and in the : stirring ami warlike condition of the times, we 1 behold dangers to our peace and prosperity, if j not to our perpetuity, which should cause every I good citizen to ponder well the steps of liispo- | litieal action : and that wc earnestly invite the lover of his country, of whatever name or creed, to join us in upholding the Constitution in its purity, and transmitting it unimpaired to our successors. Resolved, That whatever cause of dissatis faction with the working of our laws and insti tutions, may exist in different sections of the country, the proper remedy is to be sought in the temperate exercise of the right of discus sion and the ballot-box ; that all other evils are insignificant in comparison with that of dan ger to the Union ; that all others can wait the sure amelioration of time, if the Union be main tained : but that disunion would at ouce prove the destruction of our present interests and happiness as 11 people, aird the death-knell of our hopes. Resolved. That it was upon the soil of Penn sylvania that Independence was declared and | the Federal Constitution constructed, and that it therefore becomes in a special sense the du ty of Peiinsylvaiiians to watch over its safety, as secured by the great charter of the Union ; to resist the first approach of danger to its per petuity, and forever to cherish and maintain it inviolate, as the palladium of our happiness, political, social and civil. Resolved, That all vacancies that may take 1 place in the delegation at Cincinnati, now se lected, shall be filled by a majority of the whole number present, and that the said dele- j gat ion shall have full power and authority among themselves to regulate by whom and ! how their votes shall be given in the Conven tion. R •solved, That the Democratic State Cen tral Committee shall require a pledge from each elector, to vote for the candidates for President and Vice President of the United States, who may be nominated by the Cincin nati Convention, and in case of the neglect or i refusal of any elector so to do within a rea sonable time, the State Central Committee be and they are hereby empowered to substi tute.

The Editors of the Washington Union arc delighted at the nomination of Fillmore and Douelson. Such a eembination will make easy times in their office during the coming campaign. They say : We could hardly have suggested a combi nation which would make our task so easy in the coming canvass. It will be remembered that whilst Mr. Fillmore was President, Mr. Donelson was editor of the Washington Un ion. The Union stood in direct opposition to Mr. Fillmore's administration, and -Mr. Donel son has left 011 record an abundance of availa ble materials 011 which the head of the ticket can be effectually crushed. We shall make j Mr. Donelson do our work against Mr. Fill more. It will be amusing to find how bad a man Mr. Fillmore is, according to Mr. Donelson. 1 THE PACIFIC. —It is now forty-two days j since this noble steamer left Liverpool. They who are most inclined to hope for her safety, s.iv that if disabled in mid ocean—for instance, by the breaking of her shaft, —she could not, under canvass, have reached cither coast at ! so early a date as the present. Another con- j sidcratiou in her favor is, that her hull was di vided into compartments, which would have prevented her tilling, had she run foul of an iceberg.

Some time since, a 1111111 named BITTER, was arrested in the Western part of this state, and confined in jail at Pittsburg, for stealing a horse. lie was connected with an extensive gang of horse thieves, counterfeiters, etc., ex tending through Northern and Western Penn sylvania and Southern New York. Having laid in jail some time, and the gang neglecting to bail liiiu, he wrote to his uncle to come and see liini and lie would tell him something. His uncle went to see him, and lie revealed the ex istence of an extensive and organized band, giving names of members in Bradford and Che mung counties, with such details as left 110 doubt of the credibility of his statements. Much excitement was created in Elmira and vicinity, and four individuals were arrested on a charge of robbery, arson and horse-stealing. The persons arrested are HENRY LOOP, of El mira, for assisting to rob the store of (}. L. Davis, in the fall of 1854, while acting as a watchman ; H. HERZEE, of Southport, for re ceiving stolen goods ; Col. W.w. SIH-ART and IL C. WEI.I.S, for setting fire to the store of Mr. Lockwood. A man named NATHAN WICKS, was also arrested, but gave bail for SIOOO. — Another named JOHN BROWN, was also arrest ed, and taken back to Indiana co., I'a., where he has been indicted as a receiver of stolen property. The examination of the persons arrested commenced on Thursday, 6th inst. before Jus tice FOSTER. RCTTEB was present, having been brought from Pittsburg, for the purpose of tes tifying. His evidence is direct and positive. The result of the examinations was, that the four first named were committed to await their trial for the crimes of which they are charged. A number of other persons are implicated, and further arrests will be made. Through the confessions of flutter a number of horses have been recovered, and other pro perly found, just as lie lias stated. BOOK NOTICES. CHRISTINE; or "Woman's Trirls and Tri umphs. We arc indebted to DeWitt A Da venport, publishers, X. Y., for a handsome vo lume of 384 pages, with the above title, writ ten by Miss LACISA J. Cruris. This authoress, judging from her book, bids fair to become a bright star in the literary firmament. Never have we perused a book of such profound inte rest, though devoid of anything like exaggera tion. There is a vigor and originality about it very delightful in these days of common-place. It may be had of 0. D. BARTI.ETT. INDIA ;or The Tear! of Pearl Piter. — From T. B. Peterson, No. 102 Chestnut st., Phila delphia, we have this work by the distinguish ed authoress, Mrs. SOUTH WORTH.

Dallas, the newly appointed Minister to England, left New York in the Atlantic, on Saturday last, lie is accompani ed bv hi- familv. FIMKNDs'OL'" "FUEKDOM, F'lOX NWYLVAXIA. lii fulfillment of the duties imposed upon the undersigned, as tneniher of tlie National Exe cutive Committee for the state of Pennsvlva niu. (appointed ly the Republican Convention hold at Pittsburg, on the 22d ult.) and inconi jiliancc with the wishes of numerous friends throughout the State, notice is hereby given, that a REPUBLICAX STATE CONVEN TION will be held in the City of PhdadcJpliia on MONDAY, the 1 Oth day of JUNE next, at 10 o'clock, A. M., for the formation of an Electoral Ticket, and the nomination of State Officers, to be supported at the ensuing Presi dential and State elections ; and generally, for the transaction of all such business as shall come l>efore said Convention. The undersigned would recommend that said Convention be composed of delegates, twice in number, to that of the members of the Senate and House of Representatives ; and that the friends of Freedom in the several counties of the commonwealth, meet at the County seat, or other convenient place in their respective counties, on Saturday tlie 31st day of May next, unless some other day will better accom modate, and elect delegates to represent them in said State Convention ; and also, at the same time and place, elect three delegates from the several Congressional districts to represent this State in the National Nominating Conven tion. to be held on the 17th day of June next, in the city of Philadelphia. The undersigned feels that lie would not pro perlv discharge the duties i>f his appointment, if he failed earnestly to urge II|K>II the Freemen of this Commonwealth, without regard to for mer party divisions, to unite in the patriotic effort now making to rescue the Government of the Union from the domination of an Aris tocracy founded upon property in Slaves. The slave-holders, constituting less than one in fifty of the free population of the country, control all the functions of the General Government, and pervert all its powers to one end— the aggrandizement and perpetuation of their power. They rule as with a rod of iron— trampling under foot the teachings of our fa thers, and the benign principles upon which the government was established. They con tent?! the rights of human nature, thereby ex posing man to every outrage. There is no safe" fy for humanity but in the acknowledgement of its rights. Through all its organs, in the press, and on the floor of the National Legislature, .Slavery assails those fundanieutal truths de clared to be self-evident in the declaration of Independence. It impiously denies the supre macy of God's law ; acknowledging no rule of right among men, save its own cruel and ty rannical enactments. It has involved our coun try in foreign war for the extension of its ter ritory, and the aggrandizement of its power. In the reckless pursuit of the same ambition design, it recently invaded the most solemn National Compact ; and to-day threatens a war of extermination against the peaceful set tlers of Kansas, unless they submit to the usur pations of lawless and armed invaders of their territory ; and to laws, the enormity of which, have no parallel in the code of any civilized and Christian nation. The alarming power of this Aristocratic lu torest, and the inexorable tyranny it would en force, is demonstrated in the fact, that no citi zen, however eminent in virtue and qualifica tions, is permitted to occupy the humblest post in the appointment of the Executive, unless he purge himself of the taint of Freedom, and bow in abject submission to the behests of Slavery. The treasure of the Nation, through the pa tronage of the Executive, is employed to cor rupt the Legislative department of the govern ment —to debauch our public inen, and so far as possible, to demoralize the body of the peo ple. Under the influence of this overshadow ing Power, the Federal Judiciary is giving to the Constitution novel and startling interpreta tions, unfounded in reason, and against the authority of precedents. To resist these flagrant wrongs and aggres sions, to maintain the safeguards of liberty un impaired, and to vindicate fho rightful power of the people over their government, this ap peal is made to you, freemen of Pennsylvania, and your active co-operation invoked. There is not a name illustrious in the history of your State, whose principles touching slavery,are not coincident with those that the Republican par ty now struggle to make effective in the Go vernment. That party occupies before the country a truly National and conservative po sition. It seeks the preservation of our free institutions from the sectional and destructive policy of Slavery. It ninks war upon no in terest or class ; but would preserve all inter ests against the overshadowing power of one— and the rights of every class, against the dan gerous supremacy of one. It would strength en the bonds of our National Union, by keep ing ever in view the beneficient ends for which it was established ; and make that Union per petual on the only sure basis upon which it can rest—the constitution as interpreted by its fra mers. The Republicans of Pennsylvania are anxious for a cordial union of oil the frieadsof Freedom ; and to this end, will regard noth ing as a sacrifice, so that their principles are effectively maintained ; —these they will neith er surrender or compromise. Strong in the in tegrity of their motives, and in the justice of their cause, they will stand firmly by the right, trusting that a beneficent Providence will up hold the liberties of the Republic against the assaults that now threaten their overthrow.

In the Senate, Mr. BLXKAI.EW has read a bill in place to change the venue in a certain action pending in the court of common pleas of Bradford county —which is a suit brought bv Col. V. K. I'IOI.I.KT against AI.I.EX M'KEAN. JOHN A. COIUHVC, K. R. MYKIS, M. C. MER CER, and others, for libel, damages laid at SIO,OOO. The Speaker presented two petitions from Bradford county for the erection of a poor also one for the repeal of so much of the coin- J nioii school law as authorizes the election of I County Superintendents. The House having made amendments to the I Liquor bill, the Senate refused to concur, and ■ it has gone to u committee of conference. It is supposed that the committee will not be able to agree, and the bill will fall. Report of Examining Committee of the Susquehanna Collegiate Institute. The committee report that they attended the examinations of the classes in the Institute during the 4th, oth, th and 7th of March, 18 AG. The examinations covered the whole course of the published curriculum, viz : Rudimenta ry, Geography, Grammar, History, Ancient and Modem, Book-keeping, Natural I'hiloso-1 pliv. Physiology. Chemistry, Astronomy, Intel-' Icetualaiid Moral Philosophy; Political Econo my, with the science of Government, Vocal and Instrumental Music; Intellectual and Written Arithmetic and Algebra, both Elementary and Higher; Geometry, Surveying and Trigonomc-. try ; the Latin, Greek, French, and German Languages, and Drawing. The examinations in these several branches were thorough, rigid, and impartial, to the honor of both teachers and pupils, and to the entire satisfaction of the Committee. Judging 1 from the exhibitions given,the Committee have a high opinion of the ability, diligence and zeal of the teachers and professors of the Institute, and of the industry and diligence in study and correct deportment of the students. As re gards the thoroughness of the instruction given, and the promptness of the answers generally by the students, the examination would do no discredit to not a few of our American Col-' le ges. The Committee heartily commend the Insti tute to the continued patronage of an enlight ened community ; and take this opportunity to express their gratification at witnessing the correct deportment of the pupils ; and especial ly to approve of the firm, yet kind discipline of the Principal, by which a suitable degree of seclusion is secured for the young ladies. For the success of the Institute an addition al building on the grounds is imperatively call ed for. We recommend an immediate effort to secure the requisite funds ; and when such building shall have been provided, and sooner if practicable, that pupils of suitable age and advancement should be allowed to study in private rooms, meeting the teachers at prayer, recitation and lectures. The exorcises were concluded by the presen tation of original essays and addresses, select and original in English, Latin, Greek, French, and German, in the presence of a large audi ence. These exercises evince talent of a high order, and correct and thorough moral train ing. The committee were gratified by the large and patient attendance of parents and patrons throughout the protracted examina tion. R.-v, p. CAMP. •• C ifSS. •' S. W. CM A I'M AX, '• JVl.irs FOSTER, PARLEY l OIU RN'. Tow.VNDA, March S, lsjr,. Committee. Letter from Hon. G. A. Grow. H. of It., WASHINGTON, Fel>. 26th, '6O. Dear Sir: —Your paper of the 21st inst., is just received. It is not my purpose at this time to correct the mistatcincnts of fact which it (as well as previous numbers) contains rela tive to my Congressional action ; but to no tice the inferences based thereon impeaching my motives and political integrity. ] have no ! complaint to make in any case of disapproval of any act of mine, public or private, if it rests upon a correct knowledge or statement of the acts themselves. But Ido protest against the i injustice of a perversion of facts, under the garb of friendship, in order to associate names ' t made od'o.is in the pubic mind and then upon thorn attempt to excite tlw prejudices of men For the present, however, I content myself with assuring the "friends who took me from the quiet avocations of humble life and placed me in an exalted station" that my " voice and active exertions" are still to be devoted to the earnest defence and support of the principles of my "youth and manhood." But if tliev expect mc in this Congress to endorse by any act of mine, the repeal of the Mi-souii" Coin promise, which opened to the iutruduct'ou of Slavery a territory larger than the original thirteen colonics and entailed upon the ecu I try a bitter sectional controversy, and upon Kansas a civil war; or to vote for any one! representing that question as a distinctive mea sure, they made a great mistake in electing a man who had, but a few months before, with all the energy of an earnest purpose and sin cere conviction, resisted that repeal as a breach of good faith between the two sections of the Union, as overturning the settled poliev of the government, and as violating the spirit ami ge nius of the institutions of the Republic. At April ( ourt, should it be possible for mo to leave here at that time, I will examine the " monument stone" that you propose " to rear by the side of my jiolitical pathway" and deci pher its inscription to such of inv constituents as may desire to witness the examination.— Hoping that in the meantime they will bear in mind that " one side of a story is always good until the other is heard." Like you I trust the day is not far distant when the people will break the shackles of prejudice—when they will see for themselves in what manner designing men are imposing I npon thein. In the meantime I am content to wait patiently the result. Very Respectfully Yours. Gai.CSIIA A GROW. I'. !>. CHASE. Esq., Mo:itro-c FROM HARIHSBI let;.

Judge JOXES, of SulL van county, contested the seat of I)r, Jons \ SMITH, of Wyoming, and made a warm SPEECH denouncing the constituency of Mr. SMITH in not democratic, and claimed for Sullivan t! ,■ credit or having been the only comity n, { \' w North that maintained her democratii" inajori. ty in 1 5.4. He said he disliked to nucoverth,. | political nakedness of the Northern democracy Hut the resolutions of the Democratic Con vention of Susquehanna were the very essence of Black Republicanism* and were M'ilinotism itself.

He hurled buck the imputation of Judge JOXES upon his eonstitc , eucy. so far as Wyoming was concerned, ami ; said that they had never been tainted by free soilism ; that it never had entered WvomiV and taunted Judge JOXES by asking him what was the vote of Sullivan last fall which return ed a Republican to the House of Repres-iite tives.
