S. Devoe, S. C. Hays, S Newton Pettis;
The Committee on Besolutious theu sub
mitted a report as follows :
That the following gentlemen be |
the delegates at large, viz; D..vid Wilmot, j
Henry l>. Moore, Samuel A. Purvianee, An
w 11. Boeder, Thaddeus Stevens, Titian J.
i' >ffoy, John 11. Exving, Morrow B. Lowry.
Resolved, That Gov. James Pollock, and
the lion. Thomas M. Howe, be electors at ,
large.
Resolved, That the present National Ad- j
ministration, i>v disregarding the just claims
of the industiial interests of the whole conn
try ; by fostering sectional excitements and :
antagonisms ; by conniving at schemes of land i
piracies, and by the rankest corruption, dif
fused throughout all the departments, has for I
[cited the confidence and respect of the peo- j
1> ; has disgraced republican institutions in j
the eves of all observers whether at home or j
abroad, and deserves a signal rebuke from the
friends of constitutional order and of political
justice.
R -In d, That corruption in tlnJ Admiuis
tration of the General Government, combined
with Federal usurpation, botli of the delega
ted rights of the State, and the reserved
rights of the people, have become so flagrant
olid audacious as justly to excite the most 1
serious apprehen-ions in the breasts of the in
telicetual and thoughtful of cur citizens for
the stability of free institutions, and especially
Li- the maintainance of personal liberty and
State sovereignty.
ll'S'lrcd, That believing slavery to be an
element of political weakness, and of social
infelicity, we are unalterably opposed to its
extension into free Territories.
Resolved, That the dogma th?.t the Con
-titution, of its own forces, carries slavery in
to.all or any of the Territories of the United
States, is a new and dangerous political
heresy, at variance with t!ieexplicit provisions
of the instrument itself, with contemporaneous
exposition, and with legislative and judicial
precedent ; that it is revolutionary in its ten
dency, and subversive of the peace and hur
tnony of the people.
I,'esilred, That the African slave trade is a
relic of barbarism, condetued alike oy the
civilization, the humanity, the laws, and the
religion of the age, aim that the attempt to
reopen it is an clTort of the powers of dark
ness to bring again the reign of " chaos and
old night," which patriots, philanthropists,
and Christians arc Under the most weighty
and solemn obligations to oppose.
Resolved, That we view with just appre
hension and alarm the reckless extravagance
in expenditure which pervades every depart
ment ot the Federal Government, and the
steady and persistent departure from the prin
ciples and policy of the founders of our in
stitutions ; that the restoration of a system
of rigid economy and accountability is indis
pensable to restrain the plunderers who feast
upon the Treasury, and to prevent our politics
from degenerating into a wild and shameful
scramble for the spoils, in which personal
decency and public morality shall be over
throw fit
Resolved, That to maintain inviolate the
rights of the State, and especially the right
of each State to order and control its own do
mestic institutions according to its own judg -
went exclusively, is essential to that balance
of power on which the perfection and endur
ance of our political fabric depends, and we
denounce now, as heretofore, the lawless in
vasion by armed forces of the soil of any State
or Territory, no matter under what protext,
us among the gravest of crimes.
Resolved, That itNdocs not cuter into the
.scheme of the Opposition party to seek tiie
abolition of slavery in the States where it now
exists, but to leave the amelioration and ulti
timate abandonment of the system to the
moral, religions, and economic forces which
pertain to the slavcholding communities, as
sured of the fitial prevalence of justice thorough
out all the land, among all the inhabitants
tbercot.
Resolved, That to the un'on of the States
this nation owes its unprecedented increase in
population, its surpassing developement ot
material resources, its rapid augmentation of
wealth, its happiness at home, and its honor
abroad'* and that, consequently, we hold in
abhorrence all machinations for dissension,come
frotn whatever sconrce they may.
Resolved, That the threat of disunion in
ease the Republicans and their affiliants shall
elect the next President, repeatedly made in
both Houses of Congress by Democratic inem
bers, not simply without rebuke, but with uni
form applause from their political associates,
- a denial of that vital principle of popular
government, free election, and a bold avowal
and countenance of contemplated treason,
which it is the imperative duty of the people
to sternly confront and forever silence.
R,sdced, That while we are now opposed,
as we ever have been, to the extension of
l ivery, we hail the people of the South a.;
brethren, iu whose prosperty wo rejoice, and
whose constitutional rights and privileges we
are prepared to sustain and defend. That in
the spirit of good neighborhood, whenever
the passions of different of our com
mon country come in conflict, we stand on the
ground of mutual forbearance, believing that
a fraternity of feeling is a chief element of
our national strength.
Resolved, That-in the enactment of revenue
laws by the General Government, fair and ad
equate protection should he systematically af
forded to the industry of all classes of our
citizens. That we maintain a devoted attach
ment to the policy of national exchanges,
which secures to the working men liberal
tvnges, to farmers and planters remunerating
prices for their products, to merchants and
manufacturers for their skill, labor, and enter
prise, and to the nation commercial prosperity
and independence.
]>' solved, That we approve the policy of a
donation by the General Government of a
homestead to every actual settler upon the
public domain, and we hereby request our rep
resentatives to urge the passage of such a law
without delay.
Resolved, That the purity and safety of the
ballot box must be preserved, and that frauds
upon the naturalization laws, continually re
stored to by cur opponents, ought to be coun
teracted by proper and wholesome legislation.
Resolved, That the influx upon us of foreign
criminals is an evil of serious magnitude which
demands the interposition of a proper and effi
cient legislative remedy.
Resolved i That this Convention most cheer
fully recommend to the people of Pennsylvania
Col. Andrew G. Curtin, the n uninee of this
Convention, as a candidate for Governor, and
mutually pledge themselves to his support;
that on account of his long and proved devo
tion to the protection of American Industry,
involving the dearest and most material wel
fare of the people of this Commonwealth, and
his earnest fidelity to the interests of the white
inan, and opposition td the extension of slave
ry over our Territories ; and, as a reprcsenta
i tive of the principle of reform, retrenchment,
and integrity in the administration of govcrn
; mental affairs, he is Well qtialilled to receive
the suffrages of the people of the central, cdn
-1 servative Commonwealth, Which is unalterably
and inalienably pledged to the maintenance of
i the Union, and the perpetuation of the Con
stitution of the United States in its entire in
l tegrity, and according to its exaviino inLrpre
tat ion, and the real sense of its terms and
language.
The resolutions were adopted by acclamation.
A communication was received from Gen.
Cameron, thanking the Convention for the
honor conferred upon liitn.
Mr. Pollock, before adjourning the Conven
tion, made a most eloquent speech.
At half past four o'clock the Convention ad
journed, without a day, with three Cheers and
a tiger for Cameron and Curtin.
