if it bad not been for the nerve and decission of the
lifonorable chairman, some confusion would have
risen, but all signs of disorder or commotion were
instantly Checked, and the discussion went on in
the greatest harmony. Cal. Reah Frazer made
one of hiabrilliant and effective speeches in favor
of- the motion to lay upon tha table, which was
finally carried by a vote of 93 to 30.
The convention tlaerrproceeded to nominate for
Governor, and on the first ballot, Francis R. Shank
had four fifths of the whole number of votes; his
nomination was then confirmed by the united
cheers of convention. Committees were then
chosen to prepare. resolutions, and an address to
the people of Pennsylvania.

didate . for Canal L'ommissioner. A great many
names wain propoSed,but at, the fifth ballot all had
been withdrawn but four, Messrs. Longstreth,
Holmes', billinger and Hufnagle. On the fifth and
last ballot Morris Longstreth. of Montgomery
county receiving S 3 votes, was duly declared the
nominee of the Convention.
The Convention' assembled again this morning,
at 9, A. M:, for the purpose of hearing the reports
of the committees, and continued in session until
12 o'clock, when it adjourned sine die.
' I cannot close this letter Without noting the ef

is no situation in which a man can be placed that

himself so capable of the situation as Mr. Beatty.

papers will inform you that THOMAS HART BaN.
TON has been appointed Major General. The cf- 1
'fort made by the Senate to thwart the views of the;
administration will be of little avail. I speak tol
you in the spirit of prophecy—that men will bring
this war ere long " to a speedy and honorable COD*
elusion." The eyes of the Democracy, nay, of the
nation; are turned upon Lim—the Cordilleras will
be his monument, or he will be in the Halls of the

us all we desire—a peace on honorable and oath=
factory terms. His generous nature will not al

it binding on any State to sustain a . certairi'nutzi- -
ber of liquor establishments for revenue, no more
than it does to tolerate- gainbling-hou r ses, or any
other place that is found to be a "public nuisance,"[
in order to obtain revenue. It is not generally
'stated whether , it is the constitution of the United
[ States, or that of Pennsylvania, which is violated
i l by the recent wholesome enactments. The general's
[ principles of both sustain it. In the preanible oft
the former it is said, "in order to form a more per-i
fect union, establish justice, ensure - domestic tran.l
quility, provide for the common defence, promote the
general welfare, and receive the blessing. of liberty
to ourselves and our posterity" we form this con
stitution. Past experience shows'that no customs
have more interfered with these important objects
than selling and drinking intoxicatingliquois; and
therefore the support of them by government is
sapping the foundation of. our union.
In the etti - article of the Constitution of Penn
sylvania, it is deetared that "all power is inherent I
in the people, and all free governments are found
ed on their authority, and instituted for their peace, i
safety and happiness. For the advancement of .
these ends, they have, at all times, an inalienable
right to alter, reform or abolish their government.'
in such manner as they may think proper." . Here
we perceive that instead of the new law being un
constitutional, the Constitutionaexpreisly gives the i
power to the people, through their representatives,l
to " alter, reform or abolish" any measure, when,
it conflicts with the " peace, safety. andhappiness" I
of the people. It is too late to argue that the sale
Smiuse of liquors for common purposes does not.
do so. Ten thousand facts declare, in letters writ- 1
ten in tears and bldod, that the cot mon use does
destroy " peace, safety and happiness."
The righV to regulate the traffic in spiritons
[ liquors was'assumed by the colonial government
of Pennsylvania,—bas been acted upon-ever since
l it was an independent government, and has never
been questioned by well informed men. And the
new law is only a regulation of the traffic, for it
permits the sale of vinous and spirituous liquors,
for necessary purposes, in three places in each
township, borough, or ward. This plea of uneotni -
stitutiouality is only gotten up
more republican, as it gives the privilege tol,

information :
The intelligence we have given of the prospect
of an action at Saltillo is confirmed. All Gen.
Butler's outposts are said by the Flag to have
been driven in, and the attack, if made at all, was
expected during the first few days of February.—
Dr. Hardy is of opinion that General Taylor's
command at Saltillo would exceed rather than fall
short of 0,000 men. Of course, there was no fear
as to the result. Many believed that when the
Mexicans found him in such force and su strongly
posted, the idea of an attack would be abandoned.
Very many officers were still of opinion that
Santa Anna meditated no serious blow in that di
rection ; that the movement of a division of his
army thither was but a feint, and that he will lead
the main body of his forces to Vera Cruz.
Various rumors have reached the city by this ar
rival, some of them to the effect that a general en
gagement had taken place. To none of these do cc, The N. V. Herald of the 4th states, that the
