holding political opinions in common with you,
and influenced as we trust by the saran patri

submitting to your consideration the resolu

confidence in doing this because we are not
asking the official action of the Conven

expression of o'piniou of.au intelligent and

them all hays saerificed their young lives
upon the altar of liberty. From every
homestead come. thevoleeof mourning—from
every cabin comes to our eau the widow's

And get the rebellion is not supprerscdi but,
gaining strength from our mistaken leniency,
and the Inedleismor of tome of our Generals;

tog even more formidable from the new in—
gredient of horror our enemy has thrown into
the contest by the murder of unresisting Fria
otters of war.
Gentlemen, it Le time that all temporising,
conciliatory or neeillating policy elscald bo
abandoned. We believe that the time lies la

men liberty forever.
We have an army surfacient In neither) for
our pospose,-composed of men as brave and'
true as our =aided tithe battle field—bat
they worst have leaden whose metnes are in
harmony with theirs—leaders who in this
moment Of oar nattoq'o agony, rising supe
rior to all professional jealousies, and all
selfish eonsiderationi, will sacrifice, every
thing—oven life itself...to the achievement
of victory. That we hare such_haders in

thrrnidraeser thePlttaburghOesette.
New You, April 21, 1864.
The leaden of modern Democracy, Ben and
Fernando . Wood, and the followers of Vain
&ahem, judge Woodward and Ropresentatin
Harris, rit"ently celeb:ated the birthday of
Jefferson. The anniversary occurred on the
2tl of April, but the celebration, like that of
Shakspeare'e With. day, had been postponed
for two or three weeks. The headquarters of
the gang alto cores Abraham Lincoln for over
stepping the Constitutron, but who say noth
ing to Jeff. Davin for his treason, war pretty
well crowded, and State rights and free tirade
were worshipped as usual. The son shiner
and the world moves yet.
The old party watchword "Retrenchment,"
Is again exclusively in me. High prices have
!, driven thousands of people to adopt It. Many
families who have heretofore ocoopied whale
houses are seeking apartments or parts of
houses. The suggestive sights of red flags
'• flying from the parlor windows of modest
looking houses, are lamentably frequent, and
carry their own lessons. This is breading a
feverish coalmines, as to the fotureorbich bodes'
no good, if it continue. • People generally do
not attriboto this Inflated state of thing" whol
ly to the war. The system of inordinate specu
lation whiah prevails here in every branch of
business that bears upon the prime necessities
of life—upon those things that we eat, drink
and wear—has brought about this absolately
alarming condition of things. Shoddy con
trouts and the results have generated an
olt desire for " making haste to be rich," and
speculator; hove too wisely, perhaps, turned
to flour, butter, wheat and potatoes. The I
peoPle have endured the oppression remarka
bly well. Wages end calories were almost
universally raised, bat the price of provisions,
went higher'tlian the augmented compensi :
Lions could ; Rielly. The poorer clams are
waiting anxious now for gran and the canal
boats. Extravagance and luxury, though
they abound in • grant degree, have Panned
mortal wounds. The receipts of cigar stores,
billiard 'saloon and bar roams tell plainly
enough that the people are retrenching, and
in the right <Erection.
Onitroople Ire ierraptures over t h e victory
in Louisiana/ which, coupled with the move
ments: on Paducah and Plymouth, N. C. (ma
riner, as that the spring campaign baa been
opened. It is hoped that the word "Forward"
will soon be the short bat expressive oom•
mend of our new Lieutenant General. E,very
thing connected with the army here denotes a
movement at band. I suppose It no secret
to say that forty thousand men are going to
the Peninsula, and that five trensporta left
this city to-day for Washington. "The most
sanguine hOpes urn every where entertained,
The attempts of our City judges to shield
I themselves , by means of their positions from
the bonen criticisms of as untrammeled
peen, as exemplified In the Greeley contempt
7."4.1, is fastening upon them the odium of all
'respectable men. Tata movement agslint Mr.
Greeley is part of a conooeted scheme to bluff
off tho !atoms animadvenion of the press,
and arise; from Horace'" wholesome lashing
of Jddge McCann and others. The judge,
have leagued themselves together, and are
goading Barnard to the task of enforcing ro.
specs for the judisiary,gl ring the proceedings,
as they express it, their movetsupport. " Let

The Sonata resumed the consideration of
the appropriation MIL A long debate en
sued upon a proposition to mole an appro

offered, and pending their consideration the
Senate adjourned until night.
Parvenu CILLEIDAIG
Horap—Aftersocur• &mica—The House re
gamed the consideration "of the private cal
endar, and got through on firsimmding, and
second reading was begun, when the House
adjourned.
SISATIL.—Night &nice —Mr; Latta called
up the bill relative to the Pittsburgh and
Conaallsville Railroad Cerepaiy, which irts
on motion carried—yeas 23, nays 27.
131 r. Graham asked that it go over till to- !
morrow. The courtesy was nob granted.
At the end of sectionstioond,! in Committee
of the Whole, Mr. Graham offered a proviso
declaring the provident in this . bill Umpire
tive, if the Connelluille Company does pot
put the work ander contract, and upend one
million tire hundred thorium.' !dollars within
0130 yeat ands half.
Mr. Latta hoped that the amendment would
net be adopted. The people of Weattnoreland
and Fayette had waited long end patiently
for the completion of the r oad
. bj its present
company. Ms people had walle 127 years,
and waited in vain. The'rowt was wanted,
and must be built.
Mr. Graham said his proposition was modest
and reasonable, and ought to be'adopted. He
did not ask that the bill shotild not pus, but
if it passed, it should hale this proviso at
tached. It was not right, no; it was cud! ,
neatly improper, in view of the airertising'
for lotting, and the propridtimafor the rapid
ooutruction toward completion made by the
Connellsville Company: to take away its
franchises from it, end that too, just at the
moment when they are able to fulfill ell jest
expectations of the public,. The motive of
the parties pressing thli bin :are evident.
Another and rival corporation seeks to absorb
those franchises, to prevent the construe:lon
of a rival rout*. lie sineerelf trtuted the
bill would not pass.

Mx. Latta said a bin was iriirodneed Into
the name sometime ago, by a member of the
Allegheny county detegellon, called the Ka,

That bill proposed to willow:up the Con

Mr. Latta, resuming, named ; ` all Ave u.
hexing voted for it to go to sccend reading.
He concluded by saying .that ibarsople of
South-Western Penusylranis had lived long
enough on promises.
Mr.Oirattam rejoined—This party does not
fear that the road will' not be; built by the
present Oonneirrille Company t.• tho reason
of their hotels they fear that it will be built
Mr. Householder—l hold in:: my hand a
petition from three hundred =id:seventy citi
sets of Somerset county, asking, for the pas
sage of this bill. Thw 4 the strongest de
mand on the part of the people of Sono.-
western Pennsylrania for its *saga. Let
this bill pus, and the wealth, hidden wealth;
lYing in the mountains of Somerset, Payette
and Bedford counties, will be delved, which for
twenty-coven years bare had notes railroad,
and therefore no development": I have vas
.eon to believe that the city 'of Baltimore or
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad ere the
only parties interested in 'the „present Con
nellsvills Road, who can furnish means to
complete it and aro willing to contribute
money to complete it . •
Mr. Gratumn—l do not litond to speak. I
will merely put an interrogetnry : Which
company la mast likely to fushhiltoroad, that
which deeires to complete the . rorl, and whose
interest it is to finish it, namely, the Connels
ville road, or this newly proposed company,
which represents a party whose Interests are
also opposed to its complotilik t -
Air. Penny—l em not Ink condition, phys
ically, to speak. Ido not.. intend to discus
at length the considonstions of expediency
involved in the previsions of the bill. The
point to which I shell particularly diisat my
attention, is the power of the legislature to
pass any law ailketing vested
.right. Cer
tainly the legislature 13 expressli prohibited
by the Constitution. fr.im the,exeScLas of any
such power. Sean if this bill passed he did
not believe any court of the Commonwealth
would sustain the constitutionality of the law.
It was therefore oomparitiveli harmless.
Ile wculd not argue this matter at length.
The proposition seemed kelt epldent. 110

The trade between Pittsburgh nod the sea
