Hon. Uumi'I Krrett, of Allegheny,
from t lio commitloo on resolution!,
presented (bo following :
Tbe Republicans of reonsylrania
assembled in state convention, de
clare that
l-'irst They demand of tho logiala-j
Ulro tbo immediate passage of an act
calling a Slate Couvontion to roviso
and ameud tbo constitution, for the
purpose or aboluning ana prohibiting 1
special leginlation, securing the elec
tion of all Stalo olhecrs by tho peo
ple, establishing a judicial system that
will make juHtico prompt aod sure,
nod provide for the paasngo of gener
lawa that shall so encourage industrial
enterprise that Pennsylvania shall bo
enabled to tako her first pUico in the
front rank ot all tho Static.
Second They domand of Congress
that tho credit of tho nation shall be
faithfully maintained, home industry
encouraged aud protected, an adequate
civil servioo system established for
regulating appointments to oDiuo, tax
es reduced to the lowest possible limit
Consistent with tho steady but not too
rapid extinction of tLe natioual debt,
the boaor of the Rcpublio austsined
at borne and abroad, the right of every
man protected in all tho Status, and
every mau entitled thereto secured in
tho polling of one voto and no more at
each elcstion.
Third Tbey declnro their unalter
able attachment to tho principle of
protection to home industry, iu the
levying of tariff duties in accordauco
with the wise policy which baa existed
from the foundation of lbs govern
ment to this liino.
Fourth They commend the pelicy
of retreoohmeot and the wholesome
enforcement of tbe laws which bat
prevailed aioce tbe election of General
Grant to the presidency, and which
baa resulted in tbe firat two years of
hi administration io reduoieg the na
tional debt over two hundred millions,
and io curtailing tbo taxes to tbe ex
tent of eighty millions annually. Tbey
oommcna also similar policy whio
lias prevailod under republican rule in
Pennsylvania, resulting in paying off
tlio war debt oi lurce ana a belt mil
lions, reducing tbe Stato debt from
forty millions to thirty millions, and
abolishing toe tax on real estate.
Fifth In the judgement of this
convention tbe time has como 'when
tbo Stato tax on personal estate may
be safely abolished, and the other tax
es imposed by Stato laws may also
prudootly be reduced without injury
io me oroun or me eommoowesi.b.
Sixth That as so indiostioo of
what ths peoplo may fear from a re
turn of the democratic party to power,
wo point to the criminal waste of the
people by tbe present domoerstie ma
jority of tbs State Seoate. Tbe Leg
islature has now been io session nearly
live mootus, ana is not yet nearly
through with its legitimate business
owlog to the obstinate polioy of this
party. Io all this lime scarcely a sia
sjle measure of publie Interest bis been
perfected, and tbe time basbeen wast-
a la tueir tnorts to force on our
State a unjust apportionment and to
break down tbe registry law against
Illegal voting, Ik at tbey mlgbt thereby
pave tbo way to tbelr return to power
-i. e! mm

Seventh We oommend to tbe sop
pert of tbe people of the State tbe sso
didtet we have tbhi day ftomloated for
Statae officers. Tbey ate boneat, ca
pable aod failhfo) to the eoostitotion
aod ia every way worthy the publie
coofUeoco. We ask for tueir eleotioe

Bna la wets aassioaxloa, an4asa It

for ill dMtittottft aalioaal policy, fo
ita adhearaoee to the aide of violence
and wrong In theeuh, aeJ for I be
spirit it ha betrayed In tbe Seoate of
misstate this witter, where it has
made everything bend to the promo
tion of partisan interest, defeated the
holding of a Slate Cooveotion to
amend our constitution, waited the
publie time in childish trifling-, and en
tailed npoo tho Stsle a hoo bill of ex
pense for a .esioo prolonged bevjnd
endurance, and which hrta prorenled
the accomplish meat of any pnblic
good.
Kij(bth Tbl our conQJenee io the
firmocaa wisdom and dignity. of onr
present worthy Governor, J no. W.
tlearr, remains uiishnkoo, and that wo
believe his qualifications foi the office ho
now holds are unvueationabto, as is
ilcnrly provon bj tho mnoncrin which
ho has brought tbo State safely
t trough the storm.
Ninth Thsit the adoiiuistration of
PrcsiJoot (rraot meets tho full ap
proval of the Republican party ol
Wnnsylvsnia. His Cnancial policy,
by which tho national debt is beiuir
J steadily reduced, the rodudioo of tbu

01 "is aoraioistrauou cororoonu mm to
tho Continued eonfldenco of the Amor

Hon. 1 C. Shannon moved to a 1J
to tho ninth resolution the following
wtrds : " And which facts indicate
tbe propriety of (Joncrul Urant being
renominated in 1873 ns our standard
boarer."
V. V. Woods.oril iotlogdon: Mr.
Robinson, of Duller ; Mr. hitllo, of
lluotiugdoo, and a dulagate from
Ducks county, earnestly opposed this
atnendmont, n t as foes of Grant, but
because it was not tbe business of this
cohvcniioo to make presidents
xhould vote for it heartily, and bo
hoped that tbo convention would put it
through with a rush.
The amendment wai then agreed
to.
Tbe resolutions as amended were
unanimously adopted. .
Mr. Krrett, fraui the committee on
resolutions, also reported tbo follow
ing .
Xeioh'fti, That the State Central
Committee for
the eiiBuins year shall I

present State Central Cotnraittoe, the
officers to consist oi a chairman, three
w v 'uukitutwu v i u w oiwv wviuusid :
'secretaries and a treasurer, to be nn-

Mr. Mano moved to amond by
making Hon R. B. Strang, of Tioga, ' nal faith aod turn from the revolution
cbairnin of tbe committee by the votejary Kuklux with distrust
0f tl0 convention.
Mr. M. S. Quay, ol Reaver, movod
to amend by coutidiug tho clectiou of
tbo chairman to tho committee nod
tho candidates, with the advice of the
permanent president of the conven
tion. Mr. Quay's amendment was adopt
ed. Judge Shannon, of Pittsburg, offer
ed tho following :
n-tohti, That the thanks of the
people of Ponsylvania are due to
Ueueral Hartranft and General Camp,
bell for the ablo, faithful mil eflioicut
maunerio which I hoy havo discharged
tbe duties of the offices of auditor gen
eral and surveyor general. Adopted
uonirocasly.
Tbo convention then adjourned sine

Toe ermhiog dofeat of tho Repabli-
cans of New Hampshire io March last
was taken by nmy s operflcial observ
ore ns tbe beginning of a widespread
reactioo which was to sweep the Re
publican party out ol exNtonsc. The
Democracy, grown weary with long
deferred hopos and defeated ispira
tioos, hailol it as the beginning of tho
day which was to elevate tbem to pow
er nod plunder.
Connoctiout, following soon aftor
with a crushing Democratic defeat,
revertud t!io reasjoinof the firt class
and roverted the second to its formor
despair and despondency. It proved
that tho disease which afHieteJ the
Uopublicao party was not so incurable
that it could not bo remodiod by a
handshaking, and that it still retained
its old elements of vitality nod vig
or. Since that timo there have been
several minor elections which more
than confirmed these conclusions.

them that safety eao only be found in
the rule of the Republicans. Tho con

to make them adhere to their origi-

Tbe State is as strongly Republican
as ever, for dispite the disisttious de

It will be seen from a glaooe at the
above that wiib an active canvass next
fall tbote is not the slightest probabili
ty tbut Pennsylvania will reverse her
voice. Our State tioket is a good one,
and if it is followed ss we expect to
see it, by an equally strong one in this
city, we shell carry the State by a ma
jority that shall astonish ovoo ourselves
and make it certain for Grant next
year by a vote larger than tbat we
gave bim in 1868. What will be Want
ed only is active, earnest, unremitting
work.
For tho second time siaco tbe be
ginning ot tbe present year we an
nounce tbo capture or Paris. This
time if is not a foreignfoe that enters

With the exception of a small province

A Lovin or Slavery Satisfied.
The (Dom.) Union and American tells
of a young elorgyman In tbat State,
who was prominent in asserting the
divine right of slsvebolding. Ia bis
eeul for thst institution he took up
arms for tbo rebel government, sod
got whipped along with tbe rest of the
confederates, ne felt tbat he couldo't
live under tbe old banner, particularly
ss slavery bad been abolished, ond so,
wun a noat or other Dogged ooutbera
ers, he wont to Brazil, where be speed
ily became bankrupt. -'Aoeordinc to
tbe Brazilian law,' says the Union
aod American, 'tbe children of tbe eit
Isun wbo cannot nay bis debts my be
sold ss slaves, sod the money thus ob
tained is applied ij payment of bis
obligations. The unfortunate Tennos
seoao bed become a naturalised citi
zen of tbo Empire, and io accordance
with tbe law both bis children, now
nearly grown to womanhood, were la
ken to the slaveraarket sod sold to the
highest bidder. Ths prloe paid was
1,200, by returning whioh the father

beyond persdvooture, be knows bow
it Is bimsolf, and does not believe the
